Study suggests LSAT could be biased against minorities
By Eve Lamborn
Kansan staff writer
Law student Damon Williams agrees with a recent study that says the Law School Admission Test is culturally biased against minority students.
The study, conducted by Testing for the Public, a nonprofit corporation that offers classes in overcoming testing bias for minority students, was published by the California Law Review. It concluded that when students' grade point averages and majors were equivalent, minority students, on average, scored lower than white students on the LSAT.
Williams, New Town, N.D., law student and president of the Native American Law Student Association, said there were disadvantages minorities had to address in higher education.
"It just comes with the game," he said.
David White, director of Testing for the Public, said African Americans scored an average of 9.2 points lower than Whites on the LSAT, Hispanic Americans scored 6.8 points lower, Native Americans scored 4 points lower and Asian Americans scored 2.5 points lower.
"People have to acknowledge that the gap exists," White said. "People act as if the test were an ironclad measure, but it's a measure dependent on context, which includes race."
White said the way the test was written contributed to this discrepancy. One section of the test contains questions that are not scored but might be included on future tests. Test makers use questions from the ungraded section that were answered by students who did well on the scored section. White said.
"If a group does well on the test, it'll stay doing well, and the new questions are chosen to replicate that," White said. "It's an inherent process in the creation of the test."
White said the threat of being stereotyped as not doing as well on the test causes some minority students to live up to the stereotype.
He said the American Bar Association required the LSAT as an admission criteria when determining whether to accredit a law school.
Steve McAllister, dean of the KU School of Law, said the test makers warned schools not to consider the LSAT as the only factor in law school admission. He said the KU school considered grade point average, letters of recommendation and a personal statement in addition to the LSAT score.
"Sometimes personal statements are very persuasive," he said.
Edward Hagerty, media relations specialist for the Law School Admission Council, the group that administers the LSAT, said test bias was an issue that the council worked hard to correct.
"We go to very great lengths to ensure that our test is not culturally biased in any way, shape or form," he said.
He said the process of testing questions before they appeared on the scored portion of the test allowed test makers to determine if certain groups performed better for no apparent reason. Those questions never make the actual test, he said.
"I think the test has greatly improved in this regard," Haggerty said.
He said the test did not create the discrepancy between minority students and white students, but it did bring it to light.
"Unfortunately, standardized tests are identifying a problem in our society," he said. "Minority students aren't being as well-prepared as other students."
Haggerty said the LSAT predicted how well students would do in their first year of law school.
"It's the best predictor available, but it's not a perfect predictor," he said. "It's better than grades or any other factor that you could think of."

Car problems can invite further hassles — and costs — if turned over to unscrupulous hands

Inexperienced students offered more than they ask for by dealerships
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
Emily Stintzi is convinced she has been deceived by a car dealership
The Overland Park junior said she took her 1999 Honda Civic in for a standard oil change at Ancona Frank Honda, 127th St. and I-35 in Olathe, but left paying for more than just a standard oil change.
"I took it in for an oil change and they suckered me into doing all of this other stuff," Stintzi said. "The only reason I took it to the dealership was
because I trusted them."
She said that the dealership had a policy of checking out any car brought in for an oil change and that during the process the mechanics told her she needed her brakes fixed.
She said that the next day, the brakes on her car began to squeak—a problem that had never occurred before her trip to the dealership.
Stintzi said that she believed the dealership made a conscientious effort to take advantage of her.
She said that prior to that incident she had been satisfied with the dealership.
"They probably looked at my age and my gender," Stintzi said. "It ended up costing me $80 with the oil change, the tune-up, rotation and the brakes."
The dealership did not return phone calls.

Center offers new workout option

A new fitness center opened last week at the Burge Union to provide students with an alternative to working out at Robinson Center.
Mary Chappell, director of Recreation Services, said students could use the new fitness center on weekdays and Sunday mornings, times when Robinson is not open.

"We designed the Burge hours to complement the hours over here," Chappell said.
"I think it would be beneficial to have a gym open at different hours because sometimes there's no way to get to Robinson at those hours, and then you're stuck." she said.
Kari Ronningen, Bismarck, N.D. sophomore, said she worked out at Robinson but would enjoy the new center's operation schedule.
Robinson is closed to students on weekdays because of classes and it does not open until 1 p.m. on Sunday afternoons.The new center is open 12 hours every weekday and nine hours on Sundays.

FBI solicits universities for student records
Contact Lamborn at 864-4810

"We wouldn't give information out just because someone is from the FBI," Herron said.
If an FBI agent ever pressed Marla Herron, assistant registrar for KU student records, for information about students, she would ask the G-man to prove it was necessary.
Jane Tuttle, administrative assistant for student life, handles most background check requests submitted to the dean of students. She said her office had not received any out-of-the-ordinary requests from the FBI.
Generally, student records information is restricted under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act.
"FERPA says that academic records are private and can only be released with a student's written consent," Herron said.
This is not always true, however, said Rose Marino, associate general counsel for the University.
"There are some exceptions, of course, that the act allows," Marino said, adding that a passage in the Student Records Policy mirrors the FERPA language.
The Student Records Policy states that the University may disclose student information without consent "to appropriate parties in connection with an emergency if knowledge of the information is necessary to protect the health or safety of the student or other individuals."
Richard Morrell, university registrar, said the FERPA restriction that limited "directory information," such as a student's phone number and address, only applied to students who had requested it.
"If a student wants to have all their information withheld, there's a form they come and fill out at the registrar's office," he said.
Morrell estimated that 5 to 10 percent of KU students had chosen to take advantage of the FERPA "directory information" restriction.
He said if the FBI requested directory information on a student who had filled out a FERPA form, the registrar's office would handle the request on a case-by-case basis.
Linda Mullens, associate vice chancellor for student affairs, said her office recently received information from the Department of Education that alerted administrators to FERPA exceptions.
"One of those includes heath or safety emergencies," Mullens said. "FERPA officers may turn over information under those exceptions to the FBI if requested."
The Associated Press reported last week that the FBI requested a list of all foreign students attending Fresno State University in California.
Joe Potts, director of international student services, said, "I've heard reports of such investigations at other universities, and we certainly can't say that it won't happen here, too."
Potts added that he did not want to alarm any international students at KU.
Ibrahimia Diack, a first-year international student from Senegal, said he was not worried about federal agencies requesting his student records.
"Even if they get my files, I don't see what they could do with them," he said. "I'm here for studies, nothing more."

"We wouldn't give information out just because someone is from the FBI," Herron said.
If an FBI agent ever pressed Marla Herron, assistant registrar for KU student records, for information about students, she would ask the G-man to prove it was necessary.
In fact, the FBI has requested student records at universities from coast to coast during its investigation of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, though administrators at the University of Kansas said they had received no such requests.
Jane Tuttle, administrative assistant for student life, handles most background check requests submitted to the dean of students. She said her office had not received any out-of-the-ordinary requests from the FBI.

Corporate employers attend U.S. penitentiary job fair
LEAVENWORTH, Kan. — Twenty-six businesses sent representatives to the U.S.Penitentiary last week to conduct interviews, critique performances and provide guidance to prisoners poised for release.
It is the first time, three years after the penitentiary's annual job fair started, that even inmates conceded it was the real thing.
Businesses were told they could offer jobs but were not obligated to do so.
Inmate team leader Mike Wise said he was pleased by not just the size of fair but that large companies showed up.
Harley-Davidson Inc., which has a motorcycle assembly plant in Kansas City. Mo., sent five employees to the fair.
Jean Craven, a Harley employee who went to the fair, said the company had "real commitment to community involvement and diversity in the workplace."
"I really believe in it," said Craven, who had worked with a program at a women's prison in Phoenix. "All of us have a responsibility as it relates to helping the community and this is a good way to do it."
James Fisher of Elite Logistics said his company had had good experiences when hiring released inmates.
"We think ex-offenders tend to make good employees," Fisher said. "They're appreciative of the opportunities they get and tend to be very loyal and hardworking."
Elite Logistics, whose locations include Kansas City, Kan., arranges travel and other details for various clients. Fisher said he was looking mostly for people who could fill warehouse jobs, such as forklift operators.
This year's job fair included a corporate speaker.
Purna Steinitz, founder of Heartstream Education, told inmates they would need to mature emotionally to stay out of prison. He urged prisoners to "make a commitment to provide what's wanted and needed" by future employers.

States across the nation review security measures
The Associated Press
From the marine highway in Alaska to Virginia's motor vehicles office to the Florida coast, states are reviewing and tightening security to guard against potential terrorist attacks.
Virginia Gov. Jim Gilmore held his first meeting Friday with his newly created antiterrorism task force.
Last week, Missouri Gov. Bob Holden created the first state-level Cabinet anti-terrorism position, echoing what President Bush has done on the federal level.
"The world has changed and we must confront those changes effectively to keep our families safe and to make sure our state is secure," said New Hampshire Gov. jeanne Shaheen.
New Hampshire's steps include frequent patrols of the Portsmouth Harbor and the Piscataqua River, and increased security at the Seabrook nuclear power plant, she said. There will be more inspections for vehicles containing hazardous materials.
Gilmore ordered his 21-member task force to analyze potential terrorist targets in Virginia, and to assess the ability to respond and identify necessary changes in policies
laws and funding. Recommendations are due by Nov. 30.
"Our watchword in the coming weeks and months must be security and safety." Gilmore told the group of elected officials, law enforcement officers, public safety experts, educators and business executives.
Florida, Idaho, New Hampshire, Ohio and Wisconsin also created state panels or began studies of anti-terrorism efforts.
Across the nation, governors acted to call up National Guard units to protect airports after the president requested help until better long-term security measures are in place
The new state-level efforts were in addition to commissions that have been set up by local U.S. attorneys offices.
Those federal efforts will be coordinated with the new Office of Homeland Security created by President Bush, officials said. The new Cabinet will be directed by Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge.
"Enhancing state and local response capabilities is a significant priority for this new office," said White House spokesman Tucker Eskew. "Health, medicine, border security, bio-detection capability. All of it."
Twins held after all-day pursuit
The Associated Press
PENROSE, Colo. — Police found a cache of weapons in the home of twin brothers, known to neighbors as loners who liked to wear camouflage clothing, who are suspected of killing a sheriff's deputy and critically wounding a police officer.
Joel and Michael Stovall, 24, were being held without bail yesterday and will be formally advised of murder charges today, said Lt. Melissa Hartman of the El Paso Sheriff's office.
They were captured late Saturday after an all-day pursuit that led into the scenic canyons along the Arkansas River near the Royal Gorge.
Investigators said the brothers had been arrested Friday afternoon for allegedly shooting a neighbor's dog in an alley near their grandmother's house in Penrose and dumping its body into the Arkansas River, about 5 miles north of Florence.
While in Fremont County Sheriff's Deputy Jason Schwartz's patrol car, they shot him in the back of the head several times, police alleged. It wasn't clear how they could have used a gun while handcuffed or if whether the deputy's own gun was used, police said.
The brothers were later seen in Florence, taking a pickup truck from a couple at gunpoint. They got into a gunfight with police and critically wounded police Cpl. Toby Bethel.
"The officers didn't even realize they were there. It was unprovoked," said Florence Police Chief Mike Ingle.
As the brothers drove west out of Florence, a shotgun taken from Schwartz's car was fired at pursuing sheriff's cars, slightly wounding one officer.
They abandoned the pickup Friday night and about 24 hours later gave up, authorities said.

ST. PAUL, Minn. — A walkout by government workers appeared likely after contract talks broke off between the state and its two biggest unions, officials said.
Strikes imminent as negotiations between state and unions falter
"A strike is pretty much imminent," said Peter Benner, executive director of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 6.
A breakdown also was reported in negotiations late Saturday with the 10,500-member Minnesota Association of Professional Employees. MAPE leaders were not immediately available for comment yesterday, but a message on the union hot line said members should expect a strike.
Nearly 28,000 workers — more than half of the state's work force — could participate. Some 1,700 prison guards are barred from striking.
Talks broke down over wages and health care costs, said Lance Teachworth, commissioner of the state Bureau of Mediation Services.
Julien Carter, commissioner of the Department of Employee Relations, held out hope yesterday for a return to the bargaining table, but he added: "It doesn't look good."
Rodney King arrested at stop for drug use, exposing himself
POMONA, Calif. — Rodney King, whose videotaped beating by police officers led to the 1992 Los Angeles riots, has been arrested for allegedly being under the influence of a psychedelic drug and exposing himself.
King, 36, was arrested Saturday following a traffic stop near a Pomona park. According to police, King displayed symptoms of PCP intoxication.
He was a passenger in a vehicle near the park driven by an unidentified woman, Pomona police Lt. Dave Keetle told the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin.
Officers had responded to a report that King was bothering people, jumping on an ice chest and exposing himself to others.
King, of Altadena, was at Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center Saturday night, waiting to be medically cleared before being transferred to Pomona City Jail.
He is scheduled to be arraigned in Pomona for another misdemeanor drug charge stemming from an Aug. 28 arrest.
Bones taken from dead children for tests without parents' consent
LONDON — Thousands of bones were removed from dead British children without their parents' consent during Cold Warera nuclear tests, the nation's Atomic Energy Authority said yesterday.
The femurs of about 4,000 young children were removed from 1954 to 1970, agency spokeswoman Beth Taylor said. The bones were used in tests to measure the effects atmospheric explosions of hydrogen bombs were having on humans and the environment.
"It is true that parental or relatives' approval wasn't sought," she said. "We assume that parents weren't asked because it wasn't the norm at the time."
"The program was done for the best of reasons," she said. "It was the period when we were doing atmospheric tests of hydrogen bombs and there was quite a bit of concern about the dangers of nuclear fallout."
The Associated Press
Taylor stressed that the British research conducted in London and the Scottish city of Glasgow—contributed to a decision to halt atmospheric nuclear explosions in 1963.

Lawrence residents Maureen Mulally and her son Avery hammer the ceremonial first nail into the framework of what will soon be their new home. House construction began on Friday and will continue for the next two week. It is the latest "House that Greeks Built" project.
House project begins with a bang
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
With a smile on her face and the help of her son, Maureen Mulally took a hammer and drove in the first nail to begin this year's House that Greeks Built project.
Fraternity and sorority members along with Habitat for Humanity will build a house, to be located at 1721 Athertion Court, during the next two weeks.
Mulally, who is a painter at McCollum Hall, said she was excited to get the work started Friday afternoon.
"I'm so pumped up." Mulally
said "I hardly slept last night."
Mulally said she was thankful for everyone's help with the project. She said she was blessed to have the opportunity to own a house.
"It's good having something you can put your money toward," she said.
Mulally said she would visit the site every evening after work and lend a hand with the construction during the next two weeks.
After Mulally drove in the ceremonial first nail, volunteers began work on the house. There will be a house dedication ceremony on Sunday, Oct. 14, when the house is scheduled to be completed. Mulally said the lease on her apartment ended in December, but she hoped she would move into her new house by Thanksgiving.
Jennifer Bacani, Panhellenic Association vice-president for philanthropy and community service, said the warm weather provided a good start to the project.
"Everything we've been working for the last two years have come down to the next two weeks." Bacani said.
g
Kelly McNearney, St. Louis junior, said she was pleased watching the nail driving ceremony.
"It's good to see all the people who helped donate the supplies and the labor." McNearney said.
She said when she had a couple of free hours, she would be at the site helping out.
"I'm out here to hammer nails and do whatever they want me to do," McNearney said.

CENTER: Open longer hours
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Jill Urkoski, Recreation Services fitness director, said the center had four 27-inch televisions and a stereo system. She said the televisions were purchased with revenue from the University's Coca-Cola contract but all other costs for the center came from student fees.
Ukriski said the University obtained the new equipment for free through a usage loan from Advanced Exercise, an equipment dealer. The University can keep the equipment for two years without paying for it and also try different brands of equipment.
Monday, Wednesday and
Friday:
8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Tuesday and Thursday:
10 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Sunday:
10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
New center hours
Ukriski said this arrangement would help Recreation Services decide what type of equipment to buy for the University's new recreation center, scheduled to open in July of 2003.
"We want students to try the equipment and give feedback on what they think," she said.
Chappell said the new center opened without much fanfare so Recreation Services could make sure all electronic systems at the center will running smoothly before opening officially. An official grand opening for the center will be tomorrow at 3:00 p.m. at the Sunflower Room in the Burge Union.

REPAIRS: Ethics in the car lot
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
"A dealership has the capacity to do all kinds of things," Zaller said. "Dealerships use the highest brand parts that cost the most, and they are prone to recommend stuff they know you don't need."
He said Jiffy-Lube offered oil changes that included some inspections of fluid levels and other checks. However, he said if the hood technicians or mechanics found any problems with the car, they would recommend the best place to get it fixed.
Ken Gordon, professor of mechanics at Pittsburg State University, said part of his automotive fundamentals class included a section on the ethics of professional automotive work.
He said there were dealerships and mechanics everywhere who would try to make money off inexperienced students.
"We don't want to say 'Let the buyer beware,' but you have to be careful," Gordon said. "That person changing your air knows well and good if you need a new air filter — and they know how to sell it to you."
He said if students read the owner's manual that came with their car, they could become more aware of what maintenance was necessary.
"If you question if you need something, you probably shouldn't buy it until you've researched it a little more," Gordon said.
Gordon said he tried to educate his
students on the ethics of providing services to customers.
"The customer brings the car in because it has a problem," Gordon said. "One thing you do not do is try to sell a customer something they do not need."
He said the automotive service industry lacked individuals who practiced their profession ethically.
If students can't afford dealership costs, there are less expensive alternatives for simple maintenance services.
Some of the cheapest places in Lawrence to receive oil changes include Wal-Mart, 3300 Iowa St.; Wendland Performance Services, 720 E. Ninth St.; and Mike's Auto Service, 1008 E. 12th St.
Tune-ups around town are usually about $50, while tire rotations are generally less than $20.
And not all students have had experiences with mechanics and dealerships.
Courtney Deutsch, Prior Lake, Minn., senior, said she had a positive experience with Laird Noller Quick Service. 2829 Iowa St.
She said she took her Buick Skylark in for repair of the power steering system and replacement of two broken belts.
She said because of her inexperience with cars it would have been easy for the mechanics to take advantage of her. However, she said, they never tried to sell her anything she didn't request.
"They were the best place I've gone to so far in Lawrence," Deutsch said.

KU Blood Drive gives students chance to help Victims of the terrorist attacks need blood, but local patients need it too
There has never been a good excuse not to give blood. Now, more than ever, there is a reason and KU students have the opportunity to help.
After the Sept. 11 attack in New York City and Washington, D.C., Americans started giving blood that very afternoon. Many blood centers could not serve so many people at once and asked communities to wait to donate blood until the blood centers could organize blood drives. This week KU students will get their turn to contribute to the community by donating blood.
Both Lawrence Community Blood Center and the American Red Cross are working together to sponsor the drive. Amanda Storm, Lawrence Community Blood Center representative and Judy Green, American Red Cross representative, have worked to make this blood drive a successful one on campus. Organizers of the blood drive don't want Lawrence residents or University of Kansas students and faculty to forget about the people in need in our own community, as well as victims of the terrorist attacks.
Organizers of this year's blood drive have set a goal of 1175 units of blood from this week. It is an ambitious goal, but there is also a strong desire to contribute something to the community because of the tragedy. Giving blood and offering donations are the best way to do help. Giving blood is quick, and relatively painless, and it helps the community more than we think.
It can take a lot of students to generously donate blood to help even one person. A speaker at the Panhellenic council shared her story at receiving 1006 units of blood in blood transfusions. A thousand students donating blood may make all the difference for one person who needs a transfusion — but they may help only one person. For this reason, it is extremely important that all students take a little time out of their day to donate blood.
The contributions that KU students make will be a model for students across the country. There are always people suffering and in need of blood transfusions in Lawrence. It may take a national tragedy to remind people of their civic responsibilities, but the need is always there.
PERSPECTIVE
The KU Blood Drive runs today until Friday at the following locations:
Monday: Kansas Union and Oliver Hall.
■ Tuesday: Kansas Union and McColum Hall
Wednesday: Kansas Union and McColum Hall.
Thursday: Allen Fieldhouse and McColum Hall.
Friday: Allen Fieldhouse and Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall.

Local activists affect change in struggling East Timor
On Sept. 10, 1997, the Kansan ran an opinion piece by Matthew Caldwell that became the first in a series to discuss the genocide of the people of East Timor.
Caldwell addressed the motivation for the Indonesian invasion and attack of East Timor, the role of the United States in the invasion, and most importantly, the role of the American company Phillips 66 Petroleum.
Subsequent columns from other viewpoints questioned the effect of calling a boycott of Phillips 66 and the accuracy of Caldwell's accusations. On Sept. 30, the final say on the issue supported all of Caldwell's concerns in great detail.
By 1997, more than 200,000 East Timorians had been murdered despite 10 separate United Nations resolutions that condemned Indonesia's 1975 invasion and confirmed East Timor's right to self-determination. Activists around the world fought for nearly 25 years in a tireless battle to support the UN declarations.
Activists at the University of Kansas joined in the struggle and sponsored speaking tours, including the visit of Constancio Pinto, an East Timorian exile, on March 17, 1998. KU activists also launched writing campaigns to legislators to halt U.S. military support of

There are lessons for all of us to learn from and celebrate. First, on Aug. 30, 1999, almost 98 percent of the East Timorese people defied threats from the Indonesian military and its sponsored militias, cast their ballots in a national referendum and voted for independence. The incredible part of the election was that each of the East Timorians made that decision alone — no one could choose for anyone else to cast a vote for independence. Each person had to decide individually that it was the moment to act if anything was ever going to change.
On Aug. 30, the people of East Timor voted for an 88-member assembly that will become the nation's first parliament. After 400 years of occupation first from Portugal and then from Indonesia, the people will finally have an opportunity to govern themselves. And so a struggle is finished, and this is the second lesson.
Indonesia and called for a boycott of Phillips 66 Petroleum. The activists condemned Phillips 66 for its involvement with students at the heavilyendowed-by-Phillips 66 University of Kansas.
I can't tell you how many people told me my work on the East Timor issue was pointless, things would never change, I couldn't do anything to change a far-off conflict and I was wasting my and their time. While there was some truth in those warnings, the struggle for freedom wasn't futile.
Lueto-Stahlman is a senior in economics and political science from Olathe.
Things did change. I alone might not have been the force that provoked it, but the work of other activists deserves a lot of the credit. Activist Jose Ramos Horta, winner of the 1996 Nobel Peace Prize for his pro-independence campaign for fellow East Timorians, proudly voted last week, saying, "My work for 24 years is done."
This lesson applies to other campaigns, struggles and issues. Battles might be long and difficult, but they can be won. And it is the actions of each individual that will bring about that victory.
PERSPECTIVE
Ignorance is America's biggest threat
Last week my friends, Guy and Rex, and I were sitting around watching television and discussing the invasion of Afghanistan. (My friends' names have been changed in the interest of national security.) I said that we would have to invade through Pakistan, and Guy said that we could go through Iran.
We discovered that Afghanistan is bordered by not only Iran and Pakistan, but also Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and one of those other "stan" countries. We promptly phoned this information into Condoleezza Rice, President Bush's national security adviser, and spent a good half-hour laughing at our own ignorance.
The room split between those who thought that Iran bordered Afghanistan and those who did not. We debated this for about ten minutes, and then somebody had the paradigm-shifting idea of going upstairs and checking Guv's wall-map of the world.
We were not making light of the Sept. 11 attacks. We were just attempting in vain to remind each other that we were still alive. As it turns out, laughing with your friends is an excellent way to do that. (Thanks, guys.)

country, and on this campus, do not.
Ignorance recently hit closer to home. My grandfather, who is Jewish, was standing outside the Jewish Community Center in Louisville, Ky. A man, who obviously knew more about international politics than Guy, Rex and I put together, drove up and screamed that it was because of "your people," the Jews in Israel, that the United States was attacked by terrorists. Then, my grandfather said, the man drove off, "like a coward."
This campus is supposed to be filled with educated and tolerant people, yet belligerent and racist comments find their way into the Free for All and reports of attacks on Arab students still find their way onto our nation's news pages.

We as a country are very willing to drop bombs on people in other countries and to find scapegoats in our own. We have the "courage" and the "moral conviction" to do "whatever is necessary" to make ourselves feel better. Whether any of this will make us safer seems irrelevant to everybody except Bush and his advisors.
I am kind of glad that the people of this country aren't really in charge of developing the United States' strategic response. If Americans were, I fear that they would go the way of a caller to the Free for All, who called for dropping nuclear bombs on all residents of the Saudi Arabian desert.
A harsh course of action may provide cool TV footage and make some Americans feel better, but it may or may not actually make us safer. Bush is taking the level-headed, measured steps required to do the latter. But he is also calling for harsh action with excellent speeches, symbols, and leadership.
As for making people safer, I hope the extra security at my grandfather's Jewish Community Center is up to the task.

Tourney raises $300 for charity

JAKE TEITELBAUM/KANSAN
Dane Norwood, Paris, Texas, junior, plays Street Fighter, a Playstation game, during a tournament held by The Wheel to raise money for the Ballard Community Center. The competition was on Saturday and raised $300 for the charity.
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
Ethan Fincham took three "sonic-booms" to the chest and was thrown across the room twice, but he didn't get a scratch on him.
The Topeka West high school student battled another participant Saturday in the Street Fighter video game tournament, a charity event held at The Wheel Pizza Co. 507 W. 14th St.
Fincham met his electronic demise as M. Bison against classmate Weston Hogan, who played the American military man Guile.
"I'm not very good," Hogan said, "so I choose Guile so I can see Army people get beat up."
Nathan Loukedes, Manchester, N.H., freshman, organized the charity
tournament, which benefited the Ballard Community Center in Lawrence, which offers early childhood programming, emergency food and a medical prescription program.
With more than 40 registered participants, who each paid the $5 admissions fee. Loukedes said the tournament raised $300 for the center.
"Ballard and other local organizations could use this money," Loukedes said. "We kept costs down to $50, and the rest goes to charity."
Fifteen local businesses contributed promotions and prizes for the charity event, including Loukedes' two employers The Wheel and Gameco.
Loukedes organized the benefit in order to do something for kids.
"Kids like games, and
they also like feeling wanted," he said. "The hobby of gaming has spread to a larger community, and it's not as unhealthy as people think."
Kelly McCoy, Pittsburgh senior, helped coordinate the charity tournament and is a collector of vintage video game systems.
"You name it, I got it," McCoy said. "I collect hardware, not software. I'll buy one or two games and then get bored with them. It's a lot of money down the tubes."
Andrew Israel, St. Louis sophomore, was one of many observers at the tournament.
"I've never owned a game system," Israel said. "It's as fun to watch as it is to play."

Improved Pap smear offered at Watkins
By Matt Norton Kansan staff writer
Beginning today, gynecologists at Watkins Memorial Health Center will offer an improved technique for conducting and analyzing Pap smears. The procedure will better detect abnormalities, produce fewer false negatives and fewer unreadable samples, Watkins officials said.
Henry Buck Jr., coordinator of gynecology at Watkins, said the Pap smear was designed to identify abnormal cells around the cervix, which might be pre-malignant or malignant. He said that while few tests for college-age
women found malignant cells, around 10 to 15 percent of abnormal findings included pre-malignant cells. These cells can turn into cancer, usually in 15 to 20 years, Buck said.
He said that, if they were identified early, the treatment was simple and effective.
Buck said the keys to the new procedure were the use of a brush that fit the anatomy of the cervix opening better than old wooden instruments, and the fact that the brush was placed directly in solution after the sample had been taken. The lab can obtain much clearer results from the new procedure, often eliminating the
need for women to come back in for repeat tests, he said.
About 50 percent of clinics nationwide are using the new procedure, Buck said.
Myra L. Strother, assistant director at Watkins, said Watkins officials had been looking at applying the new procedure for about a year and a half. They wanted to make sure the procedure was well-received in medical circles, and that the cost increase would be benefit KU students.
Strother said the new test would cost $40, an increase of $20 over the old test, but still much less than it cost at other clinics.
The costs for a visit to a gynecologist outside Watkins, including testing and lab costs, could exceed $100, she said.
Melissa Buren, Emporia sophomore, said that she thought it was unfortunate that a "weird and awkward" procedure would have a price increase.
But, she said, if the new procedure produced better results, it might be worth the higher price.
Strother said she wanted to stress that women over the age of 18 or who were sexually active should get an annual Pap smear.

Kids hit sidewalks tomorrow
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Local students are being asked to abandon their cars and bus rides tomorrow and walk to school as part of International Walk to School Day.
Mayor Mike Rundle proclaimed the day at the Lawrence City Commission meeting last Tuesday. This year is the first year that Lawrence is participating.
The day is recognized in 20 nations around the world.
Katy Buck, nursing supervisor for Lawrence Public Schools and member of the Douglas County Safe KIDS Coalition, spoke at the meeting about the
importance of the day.
"It's an event that everybody's excited about for different reasons." she said.
The day's main goals are that children walk to school to better their health and to better the environment, Buck said. The main age group targeted is elementary school children, but Buck said she was encouraging students of all ages to participate.
Leon Greene, associate professor of health, sport and exercise science said the benefits of exercise, especially walking, were great for children.
"Being physically active on a
regular basis will benefit the cardiovascular system and the cardiorespiratory system." Greene said. "It's going to make them stronger by developing muscle, especially in the legs."
Greene said that people who had exercised as children tended to continue exercising as adults.
He cited evidence that physical activity burned energy, helping the body and mind. That makes students more alert and attentive in their classes, Greene said.
KU Environs member Sam Lane, Leavenworth junior, said International Walk to School Day was also important for environmental reasons.
"Walking to school saves fossil fuels," he said. "It also helps prevent air pollution."
Buck said the pilot program had sought show students that walking to school wasn't hard, in hopes that they would walk more often.
The Douglas County Safe KIDS Coalition, Lawrence Public Schools, Lawrence Police Department and local parent-teacher organizations are sponsoring the event.

Taliban: We know bin Laden's location
The Associated Press
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan Under threat of U.S. military strikes, Afghanistan's hardline Taliban rulers said explicitly for the first time yesterday that Osama bin Laden was still in the country and that they knew where his hideout was.
But the Pakistan's president, who has been appealing to the Taliban to resolve the crisis with the United States, said hopes were "very dim" that the Taliban would surrender bin Laden. Taliban supreme leader Mullah Mohammed Omar took a hard stance in a radio address yesterday, telling Afghans not to fear U.S. strikes, because "Americans don't have the courage to come here."
Meanwhile, fierce fighting was reported in the jagged mountains of northern Afghanistan.
Rebel guerrillas said they had seized a district from Taliban troops, while the Taliban said that at least a dozen opposition
soldiers were killed and several hurt in a blast at a base north of Kabul.
Since the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, the Taliban have given varying accounts of their dealings with bin Laden, the United States' top suspect in the attacks. U.S. officials say bin Laden, who has been sheltered in Afghanistan since 1996, presides over a terrorist network known as al-Qaida, or "the base."
Initially, the Afghan rulers said they didn't know where to find bin Laden. Then, last week, they said they had been able to deliver a message to him, a week-old request from the country's top clerics that he leave Afghanistan voluntarily.
On Sunday, the Afghan ambassador in neighboring Pakistan said bin Laden was hidden away for his own protection at a site inside Afghanistan known only to top Taliban security officials.
"He's in Afghanistan. He is under our control," the envoy, Abdul Salam Zaeef, told a journalists in Islamabad. "He's in a place which cannot be located by anone."
"He's in Afghanistan. He is under our control." Abdul Salam Zaeef Afghan ambassador
Zaeef said the Taliban, who have rejected a series of appeals to hand over bin Laden and avert a military confrontation, were willing to talk. "We are thinking of negotiation," he said, adding that if direct evidence against bin Laden were produced, "it might change things."
That met with a crisp rebuff from Washington. "The president has said we're not negotiating," White House chief of staff Andrew Card said on Fox News Sunday. Card said the Taliban had worked closely with bin Laden and "clearly it is not right."
Omar, the Taliban leader, denied any role in the terrorist attacks and blamed them on unspecified U.S. policies in an interview with Taliban-run Kabul Radio. He repeatedly warned the United States to "think and think again" about attacking Afghanistan.
The United Nations this weekend began delivering its first shipments of food and other emergency humanitarian supplies since the Sept. 11 attacks. A convoy of trucks carrying more than 200 tons of wheat left Pakistan for Kabul on Sunday. Other supplies headed Saturday for opposition-controlled territory.
In Kabul, the trial of eight foreign aid workers charged with preaching Christianity resumed for the first time since the terrorist attacks.
The top judge in the trial told the workers, including two Americans, that the threat of U.S. military action would not affect their case.
Empire State Building reopens
NEW YORK — Once again the tallest structure in New York, the Empire State Building reopened its 86th floor observation deck Saturday to tourists who looked south with disbelief at a ravaged skyline.
"I just don't know how it could happen here," said Joan Carroll, of Cheyenne, Wyo., as she looked downtown at the gap where the World Trade Center stood. "It is sad. It's very sad."
But Mayor Rudolph Giuliani was determined not to let terrorists keep New York from getting back to business, including entertainment. Giuliani appeared on the season debut of NBC's Saturday Night Live. After a somber introduction praising police and fire department heroes, Giuliani belted out the show's catch phrase, "Live from New York, it's Saturday Night!"
Less than three weeks after terrorists slammed two hijacked planes into the 110-story twin towers, visitors at the Empire State Building said they were not worried about a terrorist attack at the midtown Manhattan landmark.
"We have to claim back what's ours," said Albert Fabrizio, 35, of Philadelphia. "We have to open the gates."
More than 500 tourists queued up by 10 a.m. to pass through an airport-style X-ray machine for the elevator ride upstairs. Building officials said they expected 10,000 tourists Saturday.
A makeshift sign read, "No knives or cutting instruments of any length are permitted beyond security checkpoints."
The absence of the towers in lower Manhattan was painfully obvious from the deck, and a wisp of white smoke rose above ground zero. The Empire State Building's deck closed within hours of the Sept. 11 attack.
Giuliani, standing with dozens of firefighters and police officers, delivered a mostly solemn opening monologue on NBC's show.
"Our hearts are broken, but they are beating, and they are beating stronger than ever. New Yorkers are unified. We will not yield to terrorism," Giuliani said. "We will not let our decisions be made out of fear."
After the mayor's speech, the cameras quickly panned over to singer Paul Simon, who performed "The Boxer."
Giuliani then said, "Having our city's institutions up and running sends a message that New York City is open for business. The show's executive producer, Lorne Michaels, asked the mayor, "Can we be funny?"
"Why start now?" Giuliani deadpanned.
At the site of the trade center, workers continued digging out the 1.2 million tons of rubble left when the towers collapsed. The latest police figure showed 5,641 victims missing — down about 300 from Friday. As of Saturday, 309 bodies had been recovered, with 248 of them identified.
"The reality is we don't expect to find anyone alive." Giuliani said.
Crews were still demolishing the remains of the adjacent building at 4 World Trade Center on Saturday. City officials warned that other nearby buildings were unstable and may also have needed to come down.
Turkish foreign minister Ismail Cem toured ground zero Saturday, saying a prayer before leaving the site.
"Terror does not have a religion or a geography, just as it has no justification," said Cem, whose country is the only Muslim member of NATO. "The Turkish people stand together in our fight against terrorism."
the city's ban on single-occupant cars entering Manhattan below 62nd Street was suspended for the weekend, but was expected to resume on Monday.

Speedway opens, right on track
By Jessica Tims Kansan sportswriter
Jeff Gordon loves inaugural races.
The three-time Winston Cup champion solidified his series lead yesterday with his third victory in a first-time race, pulling away from rookie Ryan Newman to win the crash-filled Protection One 400 at Kansas Speedway.
Gordon had to survive a wild 267-lap event on the 1.5-mile trioval that saw 12 caution flags and an 11-minute red flag stoppage before earning his series-leading sixth victory of the season and the 58th of his career.
Fans like Melody Leland, of Topeka, have been looking forward to the speedway's inaugural run. She said the best way to watch a race was at home on television, but nothing compared to being at the track.
"The only thing you can compare it to is Kansas basketball." Leland said. "The track is like Allen Fieldhouse. It's the passion — when you are there everybody feels the same way, but here it's 75,000 feeling it.
"You leave with grit in your teeth, salt on your skin and the smell."
Newman, who passed series runner-up Ricky Rudd for second place five laps from the end, wound up trailing Gordon's No. 24 Chevrolet to the finish line by about five car lengths.
Rudd held off Rusty Wallace and Sterling Marlin in a three-wide battle for third at the finish. After gaining 130 points on Gordon in the last two races, Rudd
slipped 10 back. He now trails by 222, with eight races remaining.
With temperatures in the low 70s and a new track, the race was punctuated by crashes. The only reported injury was to Dale Jarrett, who collided with Bobby Labonte and slammed into the concrete wall on lap 247.
The 1999 series champion was transported by helicopter to nearby University of Kansas Medical Center for examination and observation after briefly losing consciousness in the crash.
He was awake and alert and walked to the ambulance with help from safety workers after being removed from the car.

'Friends' has 31 million viewers
By David Bauder The Associated Press
NEW YORK For television executives, it's safe to exhale.
They worried that depression over the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks would drive people away from prime-time television. Instead, based on ratings from the season's opening week, the opposite is true.
"Obviously, none of us knew what to expect," NBC entertainment president Jeff Zucker said. "Clearly, the established shows have returned in a major way and I think that's a relief to those who program television and probably a relief to the country as well, that they can see their familiar friends."
Zucker chose his last word for its double meaning. NBC's Friends was one of the week's notable successes, with 31 million people tuning in Thursday to see which of the three female characters was pregnant.
Prime-time viewing in general was up 4 percent over the last two years during the first few nights of the season, said top CBS researcher David Poltrack.
"People are spending more time at home." Poltrack said. "People are seeking the comfortable. All of the traditionally strong hit shows got off to strong starts."
These included dramas like ABC's The Practice, NBC's Law and Order and ER and CBS' JAG and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. Comedies Everybody Loves Raymond on CBS and Frasier on NBC also did well.
Indeed, one rival network executive likened Friends to comfort food in troubled time and admitted it watched it instead of his network's fare Thursday night.
Wednesday's premiere of the latest Star Trek series, called Enterprise, gave UPN its best ratings night since the network launched in 1995 with the predecessor, Star Trek: Voyager. The original Star Trek dates back more than 30 years.
"I thought that people would come back," said Jeff Bader, ABC entertainment executive vice president. "The question was how quickly they would come back. They came back rather quickly."
Executives were fearful their promotional efforts would be derailed by the four nights when broadcasters ran news reports commercial-free.
Some new series, like NBC's Crossing Jordan and CBS' The Education of Max Bickford, drew the curious despite fewer promos.
Still, Zucker said, "it's probably harder for new shows to break through."
Networks warn against giving too much weight to one week's ratings because viewers are known to sample new shows and quickly flee.

Enrollment may depend on the football team
A girl, who looked to be 10 or 11 years old, said an interesting thing to her mom in the Dillon's produce section Friday.
"Mom," she said, "I don't want to go to KU because they always lose their homecoming game."
Her comment intrigued me. After sorting through some oranges while eavesdropping, I learned the girl's brother played football for Lawrence High School. Last Friday was the school's homecoming.
What the little girl didn't know is that Kansas has actually won its last four homecoming games (that streak will probably end when the Jayhawks play Oklahoma this year), but I think she has a good point: Does a bad football program affect the University's ability to attract students?
I think it does, and my conclusions might be a reach — but the numbers agree with me.
KU admissions might say the decrease is a product of new state admissions standards, which mandate that incoming instate freshmen must have an ACT score of 21, graduate in the top-third of their class or have C averages in college-level curriculum (out-of-state standards are a little stiffer). Previously, an in-state student had one requirement: graduate from an accredited Kansas high school.
Kansas State has recorded new enrollment highs the last three years, including a 358-student increase at its Manhattan campus this year. Kansas was the only Board of Regents institution to not show a gain in enrollment this year. It showed a loss of 138 students.
LAURIE SISK/KANSAN
If those new guidelines are the reason Kansas' enrollment dropped, what kind of students was the University attracting?
The only new difference between the K-State and Kansas is K-State's football team. Kansas has long had bad football and good basketball. The Wildcats have had bad basketball and, only recently, a top-tier football team.
Driving on Interstate 70, it's pretty obvious which school is more popular. You know the "amber waves of grain" in the song America the Beautiful? West of Lawrence, there might as well be purple waves of grain.
Bill Snyder's football program is K-State's best selling point. It's not hard to sell K-State to high school students. If a student isn't pursuing a major that only one of the two schools offers, attending either is an option. And why not go to K-State?
College football has a way of uniting a campus and creating a buzz that basketball can't. The simple difference is the number of people who can go to the games. An entire student body can fit in K-State's stadium. Only 8,000 KU students can sit in the student section at Allen Fieldhouse.
Students go to college for more than an education. They want to have fun. They want to be proud to tell people where they go to school. As much as presidents and chancellors across the country might hate it, college athletics are a big influence on attracting students.

Improved hitting efficiency propelled the Kansas volleyball team to a 3-1 win against Colorado on Saturday, snapping the Jayhawks' two-game losing streak.
Sarah Rome, sophomore outside hitter stretches to hit the ball past Colorado defenders. Rome had 16 kills in the match.
Kansas (11-2, 2-2) defeated the Buffaloes (6-4,
2-2) in four games, taking the first two 30-24 and 30-27,
dropping the third 30-21 and coming back from six points behind to capture game four 30-26. Kansas improved its home record to 6-0.
In the team's last two games against Oklahoma and Texas, the Jayhawks hurt themselves with service and hitting errors.
Kansas' hitting efficiency hit a season-low 9.6 percent against Oklahoma, and was just 12.2 percent against Texas. On Saturday, the 'Hawks hitting efficiency jumped to 26.2 percent.
Coach Ray Bechard said last week that Colorado would be the best team Kansas has had to face.
After the game, Bechard said his team might have played their best match so far this season to beat the Buffs.

Two regular contributors, sophomore outside hitter Sarah Rome and junior right side player Molly Scavuzzo, paced the Jayhawks with 16 kills each.
However, it was sophomore outside hitter Abbie Jacobson's career-high 15 kills, eight in the first game alone, that launched the Jayhawks' attack.
Senior setter Molly LaMere chipped in with 48 assists, nine kills and a season-high five block assists.

The Jayhawks opened their conference schedule this weekend with two hard-fought victories against Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.
The Kansas soccer team is heating up and not a moment too soon.
The wins gave the Jayhawks a 6-2 record overall and an unblemished 2-0 record in conference play.
LAURIE SISK/KANSAN
Kansas, ranked 10th in the central region, opened the weekend with a 2-0 victory against Oklahoma on Friday at SuperTarget Field.
"I was very happy," coach Mark Francis said. "I thought we played very well, coming off a weekend in Florida when we really didn't play well at all."
The Jayhawk defense shut down the Oklahoma attack. As a team, the Sooners managed only five shots, with freshman goalkeeper Meghan Miller saving two of them.
"The defense played awesome today," junior defender and co-captain Brianna Valento said. "It was like everything we've been working on just clicked."
In the 87th minute, junior midfielder Brooke Jones sealed the victory by scoring on a powerful kick from 20 yards out.
Freshman forward Monica Brothers became the first player in Kansas history to score three goals in one game

Women place fifth in meet; sophomore leads team
By Matt Norton Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas cross country team continued to show improvement Saturday at the Oklahoma State Cowboy Jamboree in Stillwater, Okla.
The women, led by sophomore Laura Lavioie's 19th-place finish, placed fifth in the 14-team field with 157 points. Georgetown won the meet with 35 points.
meet with 59 points.
Lavioie clocked 18:28 in the 5-kilometer race and was closely followed by junior Katy Eisenmenger, who came in at 25th with a time of 18:38. Freshman Diane Disher finished 31st with a time of 18:47, freshman Megan Manthe finished 38th with 19:03 and senior Courtney Deutsch rounded out the scoring with a 44th place finish, clocking in at 19:10.
Lavioe improved by 34 seconds from her performance in the meet last year. She said she was sick last year and wasn't surprised she fared better this season.
"Katy and I ran for the first mile and half together, encouraging each other, and that made it easier," Lavoie said.
Head coach Stan Redwine said because of illness earlier in the week, he wasn't sure if Disher would run. He said her performance in her first college meet was impressive.
"She definitely made a big contribution to the team," Redwine said.
Lavoe said she was impressed with Disher's race. She said that when the freshman had more race experience, she would be a force for the Jayhawks.
The Jayhawks defeated Big 12 Conference rivals Texas Tech and Oklahoma, as well as Pittsburg State, a team that defeated the Jayhawks last month at the Bob Timmons Invitational. Kansas finished one place behind Kansas State, which finished 10th at the NCAA championships last year.
last year.
On the men's side, the Jayhawks finished sixth out of 17 teams with 190 points. Arkansas took the men's title with 47 points.
Senior Brian Blachly led the Jayhawks in the eight-kilometer race with a time of 25:20 for 26th place. Freshman Chris Jones finished 27th with the same time as Blachly. Senior Brent Behrens, who won the Bob Timmons Invitational, three weeks ago, finished 31st with 25:27. Senior Pete Prince also scored by running a 25:36, which was good enough for 38th and freshman Luke Belford came in at 26:31 for 68th place, rounding out the scorers for the Jayhawks.
Redwine said there was too much of a gap between the fourth and fifth runners, but the fifth man, Belford, ran a good race for the Jayhawks.
"You start to think about that a little bit," Blachly said. "Oklahoma State was ahead of us and we're looking at being ahead of them."
Kansas finished ahead of Big 12 foes K-State, Oklahoma and Texas Tech but was unable to achieve its goal of topping Oklahoma State. Blachly said being ranked ahead of Oklahoma State was a goal for the team.

New forum to urge alliance among Asian associations
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
Tiffany Lopez said she thought the Asian community at the University of Kansas needed to be more unified.
So the Minneapolis junior and student senator — and the only other Asian-American student senator Jonathan Ng, who is also a Kansan readers' representative, created the Asian Alliance Presidents' Forum to address issues among Asian groups on campus.
"In the past, there's been a lack of communication between Asian organizations," Lopez said. "The Asian community is suffering because of that. Our presence is not known as well because we don't collaborate. I wanted to bridge the communication gap between all the organizations."
Lopez said the alliance members, who were compiled from eight student organizations, discussed ways to work toward planning the Asian American Student Union-sponsored Taste of Asia event in the spring. They also want to create a central Web site for the different Asian organizations and find ways to receive money from Student Senate.
Lopez said she helped form the alliance so she could better represent Asian-American students.
"This will enable me to get a better consensus of how the Asian population feels and looks to accomplish," she said.
Jerry Wang, Atlanta senior and president of the Asian American Student Union, said the meeting was important because of a lack of cohesion among the organizations. He said a language and cultural barrier also existed.
"There is so many diverse organizations with different languages," Wang said. "We want to try to get everyone together. I hope good things come out of this."
Wang said the alliance also addressed the drop in the Asian student population on campus.
The Office of Institutional Research and Planning reported last week that the number of Asian-American students at the University decreased from 164 students to 121 this year.a 26-percent decline.
"We want to show the incoming freshman that there is Asian unity on campus so that the Asian population will increase." Wang said.
Mansoor Shaffie, Leawood junior and president of the Pakistan Cultural Club, said the alliance wanted to unify all Asian groups.
"It's about time something like this happened," Shaffie said. "I had no idea so many people were involved in Asian culture on campus. There's a lot of good ideas. I think it will be a good year."
The forum included members from the following student groups: the Asian American Student Union, Indonesia Student Organization, Pakistan Cultural Club, Thai Student Association, Taiwanese Student Association, Bangladesh Student Association, Cultural India Club and the Vietnamese Student Association.

Bussystems work alone
Opinions still differ on feasibility of uniting city, campus buses
By Justin Henning and Andrew Ledell Special to the Kansan
A survey of KU students in the spring of 1999 showed they were in favor of a joint bus system between the city of Lawrence and the University of Kansas by more than a 10 to one margin
Two years later, the two systems remain separate.
Instead of combining systems, the city created a separate bus system in December 2000 that complemented KU on Wheels.
"There was a preliminary discussion about combining the two, and lots of
ideas were bounced around," said Danny Kaiser, member of the Lawrence Public Transit Advisory Committee and director of the KU Organizations and Leadership Center. "But nothing was ever finalized or formalized."
Several obstacles prevent the two systems from working together. First, the buses for KU on Wheels do not meet federal statutes. Second, University money cannot be used to finance city projects.
In addition to these reasons, Kaiser said the two systems could not work together because they served two different purposes. The city system, known as the "T," aims to provide general access to public transport citywide and has only one route that runs through campus. KU on Wheels focuses on getting students to and from class.
"The students have a very functional bus system," Kaiser said. "It has proven that it works. The city has yet to prove it can run a system. Why would KU merge prematurely with the city?"
Mary Michener, the vice chairwoman for the advisory committee, thinks otherwise. She said the two systems should be combined to bring KU on Wheels up to the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which sets the ground rules for handicap accessibility in public transportation.
"Most of the KU on Wheels buses are old," Michener said. "They do not comply with the ADA standards. As long as they neglect this, they may not receive state funds."
This is not a concern for KU on Wheels, however, which is privately
owned and operated by Student Senate. Forty percent of KU on Wheels' money comes from student fees and the remaining 60 percent from the sale of bus passes.
Mike Appleby, KU on Wheels coordinator for Student Senate and advisory committee member, said Disabilities Act regulations applied to only buses added after the statute was passed. Regardless, Appleby said KU's Services for Students with Disabilities department provided van rides for bus pass holders who were permanently or temporarily handicapped.
In addition to Disabilities Act compliance, another problem prevents the two bus systems from merging.

Students snag new directories
Directories free for students in residence halls; Otherwise, $2
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
Student directories for the 2001-2002 academic year arrived on campus last week.
Cohen said more directories should be delivered by the end of this week and would be distributed across campus with a copy going to each phone.
In the upcoming weeks, various locations on campus will receive directories, said Todd Cohen, assistant director of University Relations.
Residence halls received piles of directories for residents only.
"Books are provided only for on-campus phones." Cohen said. "If you live off-campus, you have to go to the bookstores and buy them."
Directories are available for students at bookstores in the Kansas and Burge unions.
Village Hall
Heritage Museum 2001-2003
Last week, residence halls received copies of the directories, which are available for students to pick up in the main lobbies.
The bookstores sell the directories for $2 with a faculty, student or staff ID and $4 without an ID.
Ethan Adams, Parsons sophomore and Ellsworth Hall resident, said his hall ran out of directories soon after they were delivered.
Most of the residence halls still have copies, but some halls are already out of directories.
The cover of the 2001-2002 student directory that was released last week.
Adams said he was pleased he picked up his directory when he did.
Cohen said the listings in the directories mainly came from the student database.
He suggested that students should make changes if information in the directory is incorrect.
If the listing has an error, the correct information can be obtained from the University operator at 864-2700.
Cohen said errors could be corrected at the University Registrar's office in Strong Hall.
Although the directories won't reflect the change, the office would update the student information on the KU Web site and in the student database.
Cohen said corrections in Administrative Offices could be made by sending the changes in writing to the University Registrar's office.
He said errors in the faculty and staff listings could be reported to Human Resources at 864-7416.

Students to protest blood donation policy
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
Members of KU Queers and Allies will protest the blood drive at the Kansas Union Ballroom tomorrow in response to a policy regarding blood donation which members of the organization say discriminates against gays.
Neither the American Red Cross nor the Community Blood Center, both sponsors of the blood drive, accept blood from male donors with any homosexual history. They also refuse blood from women whose partners have had sex with homosexual men.
C. J. Snow, Lawrence freshman and co-director of Queers and Allies, said the organization supported the blood drive, but the Food and Drug Administration policy that governed blood donation was objectionable.

As she returned to her car to retrieve money, she was approached by two unidentified males who asked her for change, Patrick said. She told the men she didn't have any change. The men then physically assaulted her.

New York police to return to testifying in trials
NEW YORK—Few criminal trials have taken place in the city since the attack on the World Trade Center because the Police Department, stretched to maintain high security, could not free up officers to testify.
That should change this week.
The Associated Press
In a sign that the city is inching toward business as usual, the department was ordered to make its officers available to the courts starting yesterday.
Judge Jonathan Lippman, New York state's chief administrative judge, said some criminal trials that were underway at the time of the Sept. 11 attacks had proceeded, but only a very few had begun since then. Court officials had no firm statistics but estimated that only 10 percent of the normal number of cases had been heard since the attack.
In a typical week, court officials say, felony trials would number in the low hundreds citywide.
Prosecutors said the suspension of criminal trials had created slight backlogs, and defense lawyers said it had forced some defendants to stay in jail much longer than they would have otherwise.
"Obviously it's a problem in that we do have cases that have to be tried right now."
without the system being damaged. The day after the terrorist attacks, Gov. George Pataki issued an executive order suspending speedy-trial rules that compel prosecutors to bring a case by a certain deadline. Unless the governor renews or modifies the order, it will expire Friday, Oct. 12.
Lippman said. "The cases languish. They back up other cases. We couldn't go too long without the system buckling."
The suspension of criminal trials was just one aspect of an unprecedented citywide crisis after the attacks left more than 5,500 dead or missing.
"I don't think in the 20th century there was any total disruption to municipal government such as there has been as a result of the World Trade Center," said Thomas Repetto, an author and expert on New York City police and criminal justice.
The attacks on the trade center have crippled the criminal justice system in many ways.
Many lawyers who were based in the trade center or the immediate area lost their offices and files. Nearly one in five lawyers in the city was displaced by the blast.
In Manhattan, the courts and the district attorney's office, situated just blocks from the twin towers, are still without full phone service.

Professors debate government reaction to Auschwitz Report
Carl Strikwerda, associate dean of liberal arts and sciences, and Louis Frydman, professor emeritus, debated the relevance of a report concerning Auschwitz and how Hungary reacted to the activities taking place at the camp.
The focus of the debate was the Auschwitz Report written by Rudolf Vrba and Alfred Wetzel, two men who escaped Auschwitz after almost two years.
The report explained the workings and operations of the camp. A copy was released to the ally governments and the Hungarian government, a government that supplied many of the Jews in the camp.
Strikwerda and Frydman came to the conclusions that once the report was released, not enough preventative action was taken by any government.
The debate was sponsored by the Max Kade Center for German-American studies, the Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures, the Center for European Studies, the Humanities and Western Civilization Program, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the Hillel Foundation and the Hall Center for the Humanities. It is the first in a series of three presentations on Vrba and Auschwitz.

Activities teach about domestic violence
Mayor declares October Domestic Violence Awareness Month
By Matt Norton Kansan staff writer
Every two weeks a woman in Kansas is killed by her intimate partner, according to 1998 Kansas Bureau of Investigation statistics.
Lawrence Mayor Mike Rundle is declaring October Domestic Violence Awareness Month during a ceremony at 6:45 p.m. today at City Hall, Sixth and Massachusetts streets.
The Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center at the University of Kansas will sponsor events throughout the month culminating with Sexual Violence Awareness Week, Oct. 22 to 26.
Corrina Beck, program coordinator for sexual assault prevention and education at the Center, said two of the events she was working on included the Silent Witness Project and the "Take Back the Night" march and rally. The Silent Witness Project will take place Wednesday, Oct. 24, on the lawn in front of Strong Hall.
Beck, Kansas City, Mo., graduate student.
said the project would be a display of cardboard cutouts representing Kansas woman killed by domestic violence.
The 14th annual "Take Back the Night" march and rally beginning at Watson Park at Seventh and Kentucky streets will take place at 6 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 25. Beck said the event was initially started as a protest against pornography.
Now the march is a celebration of women's strength and an acknowledgment of those who haven't survived domestic abuse, she said.
While women were often the targets of abuse, Beck said, men were victims of abuse as well or often knew friends or loved ones who had been abused.
"There's nothing quite like trying to walk someone you love through the process of healing," she said. "The more you know about it, the better chance you have of being good support."
Bundle said the fight against domestic abuse in Lawrence and Douglas County had come a long way in 25 years. It didn't used to be treated as a serious problem, he said.
"This is a chance for the public and public agencies that need to coordinate services to learn a little bit and find out ways to eliminate this problem," Rundle said.
To find out more about activities planned for this month, students can call the Emily Taylor Resource Center at 864-3552 or Women's Transitional Care Services, Inc. at 843-3333.

Fund-raisers help student pay medical bills
Events support Brazilian native suffering from kidney disease
Rachel Magario, Sao Paulo, Brazil, junior, suffers from a kidney dieseases that requires her to undergo dialysis treatments almost every other day. Groups have been raising money to help pay for her treatment.

Kansan staff writer
Rachel Magario got some help with her mounting medical bills this weekend — in the form of about $1,200.
A fund-raiser at Raul's Velvet Room, 815 New Hampshire St., raised about $1,000 to help with Magario's dialysis treatments.
Magario, Sao Paulo Brazil, junior, suffers from focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, a kidney disease that requires her to undergo dialysis treatments almost every other day.
Matt Fisher, Kansan sales and marketing adviser, put together an informal fund-raiser for Magario with last Saturday's KU Swingers Golf Tournament.
He said that the event helped raise $232 to help pay for Magario's hospital costs.
Magario recently found an insurance provider, MEGA Life and Health Insurance Company, to help her pay for the costs of her treatments. However, she said the company would not pick up the
costs of her preexisting treatment expenses.
She said the previous expenses could add up to $30,000.
Magario, who is also blind, said she was thankful for the help.
"I knew I had a lot of friends, but you never know who are the ones who are going to stick out there for you," she said. "It's overwhelming."
Sergio Guerra, Mexico
City graduate student,
said he has been Magario's
friend for four years.
He said he tried to raise awareness in the community about Magario's situation and thought students would be willing to give money to a worthwhile cause like Magario's.
"As long as people know about it, they will try to help," Guerra said. "I think that people are very sensitive."
Robert McColl, professor of geography, has helped Magario keep up with school during her treatment. He said several
"It was very hard for her, especially two weeks ago when this all started," Guerra said. "She is very strong though, and she's doing very good."
He said the community's recent help has heightened Magario's spirits.
"I think everybody has been extremely helpful," McColl said. "There are a lot of people on her side."
friends had also helped her during the past two weeks.

BUSES: routes will remain different
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
The University does not allow student money to pay for non-campus activities.
Michener disagrees with this policy. She said she planned to contact the Legislature about it.
"Some colleges simply collect the transportation fees, and the city runs the buses for them," Michener said.
But Appleby said the overriding mission of KU on Wheels didn't take city transportation issues into account. He said he would prefer the systems remain separate, but he realized they would inevitably overlap.
"While some combination is feasible at the operational level, the overriding philosophies of both systems are divergent enough that separate administration is necessary," Appleby said.
Blake Dowell. Wichita sophomore, said he would favor combining the two systems.
"It would be cool to combine them as long as it doesn't affect the normal schedule," he said. "It might even increase the city buses' business."
Not all students think the two systems should merge, though.
"I think it would take a lot of students out of their way," said Erin Maike, Alma sophomore. "It would make longer bus rides for students. The systems seem like they're totally different."
For now, the city and University continue to work separately, but neither has ruled out the possibility of joint efforts, such as various transfer points. This would mean that both buses would share the same stops.
Kaiser still stresses that the two systems will always differ and serve a wide range of people. He said KU on Wheels was a spoke system with a hub that ran through the campus, while the city was a spoke system with a hub that ran through downtown.
"It is inevitable that both will be on the same streets, but where they end up are different," he said.

BLOOD: gay men exluded by drive
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
"We are not organizing against the Red Cross in any way, shape or form, only the FDA's discriminatory policy, which they are made to follow," Snow said.
Questionnaires distributed at the blood drive ask men whether they have had sex with another male, even once since 1977, and ask women whether in the past year they have had sex with a male who has had sex, even once, with another male since 1977.
Representatives from the Red Cross and Community Blood Center said that anyone answering "yes" to either question was disqualified from donating blood. Men are disqualified indefinitely, and women are disqualified for one year.
"We must follow all FDA policies," said Chris Beurman, director of donor recruitment for the Community Blood Center. "They are charged with making sure the recipient is secure and making sure the
"They test everybody's blood anyway," Wolfe said. "It seems outright discriminatory not to accept a gay man's blood."
blood supply is safe. We have to stand behind that."
Wolfe said that between 3 and 4 p.m. tomorrow, Queers and Allies members would attempt to give blood. She said that she expected some lesbians to pass through.
"I personally plan on donating blood," Wolte said.
Snow said all Queers and Allies members would answer the questionnaire truthfully, but as many as possible would donate.
"The real issue is to get blood to those who need blood," he said, "and if they're going to screen blood, they should screen everybody's blood."
The FDA policy makes no sense to Tara Wolfe, Lawrence senior and treasurer of Queers and Allies.

EDITORIAL
Thanksgiving means family, not KU football
Rescheduling game helps department,but not students involved
When the decision was made to cancel the Big 12 Conference football games the weekend after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, the idea of a Kansas - Wyoming make-up date should have been scrapped immediately.
Playing this game will be a detriment to everyone involved. The student athletes, the band, the cheerleaders, the flag corps and countless others will all be expected to attend the game and miss their chance to be with family for Thanksgiving.
PERSPECTIVE
Optimists might argue that playing this game could give the team a shot at what could be its ninth win, thereby securing a bowl bid, by having a winning record. But if the Jayhawks did qualify for a bowl, they would do so with their sixth win. In all likelihood, though, the Jayhawks will be shooting for win number three or four when Wyoming, or some other team, rolls into Lawrence.
The game will be an attendance nightmare. Students will be gone. Area residents will be out of town or at home with family. Very few will brave the elements to watch two mediocre teams play with nothing on the line.
Is anyone besides the Athletics Department and the players' families clamoring to see one more Kansas football game? Can't we just move on to a sport Kansas is competitive in? (read: basketball) What could possibly be the motivation for rescheduling this Toilet Bowl?
Money is always a factor. If the game were canceled, the Athletics Department would offer ticket holders the option of receiving a refund for their season tickets, luxury suites and stadium seats or picking another game. Refunded tickets would mean money lost. Financial considerations have won out against the best interests of the students involved.
While some fans wouldn't mind seeing the game on TV during Thanksgiving weekend, (most people in their post-meal comatose state aren't even actually aware of what teams are playing.) the game between these cellar-dwellers will not get TV coverage, except a ESPN Sportscenter clip showing a three-quarters empty Memorial Stadium.
Playing a football game during Thanksgiving weekend won't provide entertainment for many fans and will keep students away from their families. This game would be better left unplayed.

This month will shed light on domestic violence epidemic
October is a vitally important month because it is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Domestic violence is a silent tragedy. It is easy for many people to forget how prevalent the problem is. It is a phenomenon that is uncomfortable to think about and can often seem to be a problem beyond our control.
It is easier just to ignore it or convince ourselves that it is someone else's problem and none of our business. Domestic Violence Awareness Month is important because it reminds each of us to pay attention and care for one another, to speak out against the suffering and combat the silence.
It is easy to assume that Lawrence is too small, too quaint and too quiet to be part of the domestic violence epidemic, but violence in the home occurs everywhere.
Women's Transitional Care Services of Lawrence is on the front line of the battle against domestic violence and the silence that so often surrounds it. WTCS provides safe shelter to local women and children who are survivors of domestic violence and a crisis line for people seeking shelter and counseling. It also provides several support groups for survivors, including one for survivors of domestic violence in same-sex relationships, along with education to the public.
In this one shelter, 130 women and

117 children sought refuge from abuse in just nine months (July 1, 2000-March 31, 2001). In 1998 there were 18,966 reported incidents of domestic violence statewide, 26 of which resulted in murder.
These numbers only reflect the reported cases of domestic violence. Many more incidents remain behind the closed doors of homes.According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics' National Crime Victimization Survey, only 59 percent of victims reported the violence to the police in 1998.
In the United States, a woman is beaten or killed in incidents of domestic violence every 15 seconds. That is 240 women every day.
It is also important to note that the University of Kansas contains many women of the highest risk age group. Women between the ages of 16- to 24 years-old experienced the highest rates of domestic victimization at 19.6 per 1000 women.
There are plenty of things you can do to help put an end to this tragedy. In October, WTCS will be highly visible. We invite you to pay attention, ask questions, sign up to volunteer, pick up a purple ribbon at a local business and wear it. You can attend the "Womyn Take Back the Night" march and rally at 5:30 p.m., Oct. 25 at Buford M. Watson Park. You can learn the WTCS crisis line number, 843-3333, and give it to a woman who might need it.
Remember that October is the recognized month for awareness, but domestic violence happens every day of every year. Take the information available to you during this month and use it to protect and care for the people of your community. This epidemic is not too large to be conquered by a community of people who care for each other.
All of us are responsible for breaking the silence. If you see domestic violence occurring, call the police. If you know a woman who is suffering abuse, reach out to her, give her information about the services offered by WTCS, and most importantly, be supportive and encouraging. Don't be judgmental.

PERSPECTIVE
Alcohol at football game OK, so why not at home?
Ah, the hypocrisy of fall. Politicians run for office. Seniors tell freshmen to do their homework. And in a small corner of Kansas, football fans are allowed to imbibe beverages of their choice in 10 designated parking lots.
We, as KU supporters, are supposed to gurge happily now that we are allowed to consume alcohol before home football games. But the "Proud to Be a Jayhawk" areas are anything but a source of pride. They are simply another asinine chapter in the University's ridiculous Prohibition-era alcohol debacle.
Perhaps the most embarrassing aspect of the new policy is that it exposes the ideological inconsistency that underpins the University's alcohol policy. For example, a group of 27-year-olds cannot have a barbecue outside Stouffer Place that includes a cooler of beer. However, there is no problem with exactly the same behavior if it takes place outside Memorial Stadium and within three hours of a football game.

Commentary
You see, the thought of adults drinking right outside their on-campus homes is intolerable, but the notion of
Moreover, as if the inconsistency of the policy is not enough to trigger the gag reflex, the University's willful blindness to the actual practice of KU students causes retching every time. Instead of approaching the reality of college drinking with an honesty that could encourage responsible drinking, the University stuffs its head in the sand and pretends that its pronouncements make a difference.
No one is afraid to drink on campus. The chances of being caught are negligible, the consequences of being caught are minimal, and the rules concerning
Instead of turning resident assistants (you know, that guy you never see who lives in the single room halfway down the hall) into pseudo-cops, let the police handle problems.
drinking are basically unenforceable. The University makes itself look like an ignorant, out-of-touch buffoon, and thereby fosters some of the very behaviors it seeks to avoid.
Drunk and disorderly, assault and battery, minor in possession or contributing to the delinquency of a minor charges all carry hefty fines and community service. It makes a stern note from the complex director pale in comparison, doesn't it?
But consider the alternative: Let everyone who can buy alcohol consume it in their on-campus place of residence. People who drank responsibly would have no problems at all. However, any illegal conduct would not be handled by the Department of Student Housing, it would be handled by the KU Public Safety Office.
More importantly, admitting that people are drinking enables the University to provide role models for responsible alcohol consumption. Currently,
RAs can neither drink with their residents nor frequent drinking establishments where their residents may be present. This has the effect of completely divorcing RAs from the residents' social lives and thus eliminates them from the pantheon of individuals that a resident would consult in a crisis.
But in a more open, realistic University, RAs could party with their residents and offer sage advice about the lag time between tequila shot and tequila effect, the importance of refraining from jumping on police cars and the magic of two aspirins and a big glass of water.
There is, however, a bright spot in this dismal gray of KU prudishness. It shows the University can change. Twelve months ago, I would have never believed that the University would allow tailgating in 2001. But it happened. One can only hope that the trend toward reasonable alcohol policies continues, and that one day, the University will match its policy with reality.

Thousands of mourners assemble to honor murdered Irish reporter
The Associated Press
LURGAN, Northern Ireland Protestant and Catholic politicians united in silence yesterday as more than 2,000 mourners walked behind the casket of one of Northern Ireland's most courageous journalists — and the first to be slain in three decades of violence there.
A harsh rain fell as journalists from both parts of Ireland took turns helping to carry the coffin of Martin O'Hagan, 51, from his home in Lurgan to the city cemetery.
The investigative reporter for the Sunday World, Ireland's best-selling tabloid newspaper, died by his wife's side Friday night after Protestant extremists shot him several times in the back near his home.
"Martin was gunned down because he got nearer the truth than the rest of us," said the Rev. Brian d'Arcy, a Roman Catholic priest and columnist for the Sunday World, who gave the graveside oration. "The best honor we could pay his memory is to carry on that quest for truth unde-terred."
The killers cited O'Hagan's investigation about their activities as the reason.
For more than a decade, the Sunday World featured O'Hagan's reports on Northern Ireland's paramilitary underworld
the Irish Republican Army and its many anti-British groups on
the Catholic side and the pro-British Protestant extremists who frequently killed Catholic civilians in retaliation. Between them, the two armed camps have claimed more than 3,000 lives, violence that persists despite prevailing cease-fires.
O'Hagan's reporting made him a particularly hated figure for members of one Protestant gang, the Loyalist Volunteer Force, which is based in Lurgan's neighboring town of Portadown. He also said he was once abducted and interrogated by IRA members who wanted to know his sources.
In Belfast, members of Northern Ireland's cross-community government offered a minute's silence yesterday in honor of O'Hagan. Press freedom organizations worldwide appealed to Britain to devote extra resources to imprisoning the killers that O'Hagan spent his career trying to unmask.
In Vienna, Austria, the International Press Institute said Britain must "bring to justice those responsible for this heinous act" and "ensure the safety of journalists covering events in Northern Ireland."
Although police have yet to arrest anybody, Northern Ireland police chief Ronnie Flanagan said the most likely culprits were Loyalist Volunteer Force members, whose intimidation rackets and drug-dealing O'Hagan investigated.
O'Hagan had told his wife that a senior Loyalist Volunteer figure had recently threatened him. But yesterday the group's alleged commander, Mark "Swinger" Fulton, issued a statement denying any involvement in the attack.
The journalist fled Northern Ireland in 1993 after Wright told other reporters he'd like to see O'Hagan killed — a threat followed up by a bomb that wrecked the Sunday World's Belfast office.
Responsibility for the killing was claimed by the Red Hand Defenders, which police and politicians consider a cover name for members of the Loyalist Volunteers and other illegal Protestant groups. In a statement, the group said O'Hagan's reports on them were "crimes."
O'Hagan returned to Northern Ireland in 1995 after most paramilitary groups had called cease-fires. Wright was killed in prison in 1997, and the Loyalist Volunteers called a cease-fire after the Good Friday peace accord of 1998.
O'Hagan had dubbed Loyalist Volunteers founder Billy Wright "King Rat" in his reports. The rest of the media eventually adopted the nickname.
Many compared O'Hagan's slaying with the 1996 assassination in Dublin of Veronica Guerin, a reporter for the Sunday Independent newspaper, who was killed by a Dublin drug-dealing gang she had highlighted in
her reports. That killing — the first of a reporter in the Republic of Ireland — provoked lawmakers and police to crack down on organized crime, and inspired two Hollywood films.
Even though other journalists frequently sought O'Hagan's help in contacting paramilitary figures, some also viewed him with suspicion. In recent years, he said he felt isolated from the mainstream press, breaking stories about dangerous individuals that others feared to mention in print.
O'Hagan was imprisoned in 1972 for possessing weapons as part of his admitted involvement in the "Official" Irish Republican Army, a Marxism-influenced branch of the IRA that called a cease-fire that year. His IRA background made him a suspect in many Protestant eyes.
He was paroled in 1975 and, saying he no longer supported violence for political purposes, gradually worked his way into the media. The Sunday World didn't flinch from naming criminals, a rarity in Northern Ireland media.
"No other journalist that I know of had the bravery to write the way he did in the face of everpresent danger," said Jim Cusack, security editor of The Irish Times newspaper. "Marty didn't just break the big terrorism stories, he exposed all the dirt."
Analysts predict big savings on heating could continue through December
The Associated Press
NEW YORK - With the mercury dropping, and the home heating season getting under way, customers can expect big savings compared with last winter, analysts say.
Because of weak demand from industrial users and a glut in supply, natural gas is 57 percent less expensive than a year ago. Crude oil, from which heating oil is refined, is about 30 percent cheaper per barrel.
With no quick turnaround in sight for the U.S. economy, experts think the downward pressure on energy prices could last through December.
"Natural gas prices are a fraction of what they were last year and, on average, consumers
should expect tremendous savings," said Fadel Gheit, an energy analyst at Fahnestock & Co. in New York.
Last winter, Americans paid dearly to heat their homes because natural gas supplies were extremely tight and demand from industrial users was strong. The wholesale price, which traded around $2.50 per 1,000 cubic feet in the late 1990s, soared above $10 in January.
For a while, natural gas companies raked in huge profits as they cranked up production. But their aggressive drilling eventually bumped up against a sharp drop in demand as the U.S.economy faltered.
The country had 2.84 trillion cubic feet of natural gas in storage
for the week that ended on Sept. 21, compared with 2.40 trillion cubic feet during the same period in 2000.
The wholesale price is now slightly above $2.15 per 1,000 cubic feet, compared with $5 per 1,000 cubic feet at the beginning of last year's home heating season.
Electricity could also be cheaper because more than 15 percent of the nation's power is derived from natural gas.
Half of all homes in the United States are heated with natural gas, according to the American Gas Association. Thirty-two percent use electricity, 9 percent rely on heating oil and the remainder use wood, alternative fuels or have no heat at all.
When it comes to heating oil, which is primarily used in the Northeast, analysts say homeowners could save an average of 30 cents a gallon compared with last year's prices. A household using 600 gallons of heating oil during the October-March season could save $180.
The driving force behind these savings is cheap crude, which traded at $23.28 a barrel yesterday on the New York Mercantile Exchange, compared with $33 a year ago.
Heating oil for November delivery sold yesterday for about 66 cents a gallon, about 20 cents below last year's levels.
Tough base security hurts taxis
New safety rules keep taxis from shuttling soldiers from Fort Riley
The Associated Press
JUNCTION CITY — New security rules that restrict nearly all civilian access to defense installations have left Junction City taxi companies reeling and caused disruptions for travelers trying to get from Fort Riley to airports in other cities.
Owners of the A-One Cab Co. and Bell Taxi Transportation Inc. say their business has been cut in half since the restrictions were imposed after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
"I think Fort Riley's hands are tied by instructions coming from some place beyond Fort Riley," said Glenn Puett, owner of Bell Taxi.
Since access was restricted on Sept. 11, Puett has been unable to honor tickets owned by Fort Riley residents who bought tickets to get to Kansas City.
Bell also operates Road Runner Express, which shuttles travelers to and from Kansas City International Airport.
Soldiers who want rides to Kansas City can meet the shuttle in Junction City or Manhattan.
"As to how they get there,
they're going to have to figure that out," said Fort Riley representative Deb Skidmore "Being soldiers, they may have to catch a ride with a friend, whatever."
Soldiers who want to return to Fort Riley after visiting Junction City are left to their own devices. Puett said his drivers have dropped off soldiers at the edge of post who have had to wait up to two hours for military police to drive them to their quarters.
Before Sept. 11, Bell's taxis picked up Fort Riley travelers at their door and got them to the shuttle terminal on time. Now, Puett said his shuttles often run late when drivers wait for Fort Riley passengers to arrive at the terminal in Junction City.
"There basically is not a shuttle service on post," Skidmore said. She knew of no plans to improve public transit for soldiers or their families on post. An Army taxi service is available but only for official business.
Puett said he had contacted Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., to discuss the situation. He said an officer from the post Provost Marshall's Office had called him to collect information about cab drivers who might be allowed on post.
But Kim Hamilton, manager of A-One Cab, said the senator's office had been unable to assist her company.
Retired soldiers who otherwise are allowed on Fort Riley are

not allowed to drive taxis on post. Of A-O-one's normal eight or nine drivers, only four are now working and business is slow for them, Hamilton said. Without access to Fort Riley, the business could fold, she said.
not allowed to drive taxis on post.
"If it stays this way, I'm sure it's a possibility," Hamilton said.
The post also is wrestling with parcel deliveries to residence.
Last Wednesday, the post announced that parcel companies would not be allowed to deliver packages to residential quarters because searching the truckloads of packages was taking too much time from guards at the gate.
Two days later, Skidmore said the policy had been revised to allow parcel companies to deliver packages to soldiers' quarters.
Ohio doctor pleads guilty in assault
The Associated Press
DAYTON, Ohio — A doctor accused of spiking his ex-girlfriend's drinks in an attempt to cause a miscarriage pleaded guilty yesterday to reduced charges in a deal that will send him to prison for five years.
Maynard Muntzing II, 35, pleaded guilty to attempted felonious assault and contaminating a substance for human consumption.
Muntzing had been charged with four counts of attempted aggravated murder under a 1996 Ohio law that lets prosecutors seek a maximum of 10 years in prison on each count for trying to terminate a viable pregnancy.
Baker reported her suspicions to police, and Muntzing was arrested after police said they observed him, via a pinhole video camera, tamper with Baker's drink in her kitchen.
Muntzing was accused of spiking the drinks of Michelle Baker with Cytotec, a stomach treatment drug that can trigger miscarriages. Baker said she was pregnant with Muntzing's child.
She later miscarried. The coroner's office said the cause of the miscarriage could not be determined.

Under the deal with prosecutors, Muntzing also agreed to give up his medical license.

New York's slide continues with loss to Pirates
Mets final homestand has few highlights, even fewer fans
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The New York Mets started their final homestand of the season looking like a team that had given up.
Gary Matthews Jr. hit a long homer and drove in three runs, and Jimmy Anderson allowed just four hits in eight innings to lead
the Pittsburgh Pirates against New York 5-1 last night.
New York, which blew any comeback hopes by losing two of three in Atlanta last weekend, dropped 41/2 games behind the firstplace Braves in the NL East.
PIRATES
Coming off their firstNL pennant in 14 years,the Mets have just five games remaining to complete a season that will be remembered for
Mets
41/2 months of underachievement followed by a spirited comeback attempt that fell short.
Most Mets fans abandoned their team on a chilly autumn night. The crowd of 6,315 was the lowest at Shea Stadium since Sept. 17, 1991, when 4,355 came to a game against Montreal.
The evening's highlight was when the Pirates, theNL's worst team at 59-98, comically ran themselves into a double play in the seventh inning.
Brian Giles was picked off at second by Jerrod Riggan, broke for third, then was run back to second by third baseman Robin Ventura.
Aramis Ramirez, who began the play on first, went to second and was tagged out by Ventura while standing on second.
But that base still belonged to Giles, the lead runner, meaning Ramirez was out.
Giles, apparently thinking he was the runner put out, walked away from second and was tagged out by Ventura for the double play.
Anderson (9-17) stopped Pittsburgh's four-game losing streak and didn't allow a runner past second base after the fourth inning.
After Rich Loiselle put on the first two runners in the ninth, Scott Sauerbeck finished the five-hitter for his second save.
Matthews put Pittsburgh ahead in the second against Glendon Rusch (8-11) with a two-run homer that cleared the left-field bleachers and was estimated at 447 feet.
Ventura had an RBI double in the second, and Matthews' fourth-inning sacrifice fly made it 3-1.
Pittsburgh added a pair of runs in the sixth off Dicky Gonzalez on Kevin Young's RBI single and Mendy Lopez's sacrifice fly.
49ers barely squeeze by Jets with clock-eating offense
The Associated Press
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Efficiency overcame emotion last night as the San Francisco 49ers beat the Jets 19-17 in New York's first home game since the terrorist attacks.
After a moving tribute to the rescue workers at the World Trade Center 10 miles from Giants Stadium, the Jets (1-2) sputtered offensively and were sloppy with their tackling.
S1
JETS
Meanwhile, the 49ers (2-1)
displayed the proper way to run a clock-eating offense, rushing for 233 yards behind rookie Kevin Barlow and veteran Garrison Hearst.
Barlow gained 83 yards on just nine rushes and Hearst had 95 on 20 attempts against New York's soft defensive scheme. Both had just 58 yards coming into the game.
When Jeff Garcia needed to hit a pass, he was on target, finishing 16-for-20 for 141 yards, including a 6-yard TD throw to Terrell Owens.
Jose Cortez kicked four field goals.
New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Gov. George Pataki, along with New Jersey's acting Gov. Donald DiFrancesco, served as honorary captains. Jets coach Herman Edwards presented the game ball from last week's win at New England to Giuliani. Edwards had dedicated that victory to the city.
and the 49ers throttled New York's unimaginative offense in beating the Jets on the road for the fifth straight time.
The Jets set about getting another win with an 88-yard drive that lasted 9:22 and featured a superb over-the-shoulder 34-yard reception by Wayne Chrebet. Curtis Martin dived in from the 2, but that was about it for the flat Jets.
New York managed an 84-yard drive in the dying moments, with Martin scoring from the 1 with 50 seconds remaining. But the Niners recovered the onside kick.
The Niners came right back behind Barlow, who had 44 yards on four carries, including gains of 15 and 25 on the tying drive. Garcia hit Owens over the middle for the 6-yard score.
Former Jayhawk Dana Stubblefield blocked John Hall's 50-yard field goal try, and the 49ers staged an eight-minute march to Cortez's 19-yard field goal for a 10-7 lead. It could have been more, but Garcia
was stopped on a rollout at the Jets 1 by Mo Lewis.
Garcia, who hit his first nine passes, guided the 49ers to Cortez's 49-yard field goal as the half ended.
San Francisco handed back those points when Eric Johnson fumbled on the second play of the second half at the 49ers 41. Tom Barndt recovered, and Hall made a 24-yardter.
So Cortez made a 35-yarder for a 16-10 lead, capping a drive that began when rookie Vinny Sutherland sped 65 yards with the kickoff. He also put through a 29-yarder to cap a 97-yard, 17-play drive that ate up 9:47 and clinched matters.
Notes: Before the game, an 80-foot flag was unfurled by members of the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines before Luther Vandross sang a rousing rendition of "Impossible Dream," and Heather Hedley performed "God Bless America." The fans, on their feet, then chanted "U-S-A! U-S-A!"
San Francisco rookie defensive end Andre Carter, their first-round draft pick, played against his father's team and got his first career sack. Rubin Carter is the Jets' defensive line coach
49ers RB Garrison Hearst surpassed 5,000 yards rushing for his career with a 3-yard run in the second quarter. He now has 5,092.
Yankees win, but few fans see it
Team draws smallest crowd since 1994 in makeup game
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Sterling Hitchcock pitched his first complete game since 1998 and helped New York beat the Chicago White Sox 8-1 yesterday in front of the smallest crowd at Yankee Stadium in more than seven years.
Only 8,112 fans showed up for the game, which was a makeup from Sept. 11, when the terrorism attacks that devastated New York shut down baseball for six days.
Yankees
Most of the fans who had tickets for that game opted to trade them in for another game, making it the smallest crowd at
when 5,851 fans showed up for a game against Texas.
The Yankees (92-62), who have clinched the AL East, moved 31/2 games ahead of Central winner Cleveland (89-66) in the race for home-field advantage for the first round of the plavoffs.
Sox
If New York maintains its lead against Cleveland, the Yankees would open the postseason at home on Wednesday, Oct. 10, against Oakland.
Yankee Stadium since April 7, 1994.
Derek Jeter drove in three runs, and Alfonso Soriano had two RBIs as the Yankees jumped out to a 6-1 lead in the third inning against Kip Wells (10-10).
The biggest relief for the Yankees might have been that they ended the game as healthy as they were when they started. A New York player has left each of the last five games with an injury, complicating the playoff preparation.
Hitchcock (4-4) could be needed in the Yankees' postseason if either Andy Pettitte or Orlando Hernandez doesn't recover from nagging elbow injuries in time.
He showed that he might be ready in his best start since undergoing elbow surgery in June 2000.
Hitchcock, acquired from San Diego on July 30, pitched a four-hitter for his first complete game since Aug.
14, 1998, against Milwaukee, when he was still with the Padres. Hitchcock also had a season-high eight strikeouts.
New York scored three runs in the second, taking advantage of two walks by Wells and opened the inning. Soriano hit an RBI single and scored the first run, and Jeter added a two-run double, making it 3-0.
After the White Sox scored in the third on a sacrifice fly by Ray Durham, the Yankees added three in the bottom half on RBI doubles by Shane Spencer and Soriano and an error by left fielder Carlos Lee.
Luis Sojo, in a 1-for-28 slump, added an RBI single and made it 7-1 in the fifth. Jeter added an RBI triple in the eighth.
Wells allowed six runs and five hits in two-plus innings.
Notes: The White Sox, playing at Yankee Stadium for the first time since June 18,2000, had won four straight in New York.
Catcher Bobby Estalella made his first start for the Yankees and went 0-for-2 with a walk and was hit by a pitch.
- Starter Jorge Posada will return from his five-game suspension today.
Sojo had played only once since Aug. 28.
Well is 1-4 with a 12.68 ERA in his past six starts.
Scoring slump continues as Orioles lose to Blue Jays

in his last 25 at-bats. He also had two throwing errors from third base, his first two-error game since April 1999.
BLUEJRYS
Baltimore has been kept scoreless in 19 st rai ght innings and has scored only one run
Orioles
in its last 25 innings.
Cruz's 31st homer, a sixth-inning drive estimated at 400 feet, broke up a pitching duel between Loaiza and rookie Rick Bauer (0-4). It was his third homer in three games and fourth in his last nine starts.
Loaiza (11-11) allowed six hits in seven innings, striking out five and walking one. Returning to the starting rotation after pitching in relief on Sept. 27 and 28, the right-hander did not allow a runner past second base.
Paul Quantrill pitched the eighth, and Billy Koch got three outs for his 35th save.
Alex Gonzalez had two hits for the Blue Jays, who have won nine of their last 10 games against the Orioles.
Despite failing to retire the side in order through the first five innings, Bauer blanked the Blue Jays until the sixth. After Carlos Delgado hit a 3-0 pitch to the warning track, Cruz slammed Bauer's next offering far over the right-field scoreboard.
Toronto put runners at first and third with two outs in the second before Darrin Fletcher fouled out. Bauer also worked out of a jam in the fifth, retiring Raul Mondesi on a grounder with runners on second and third.
Notes:
The Orioles called up outfielder Tim Raines Jr., the son of veteran Tim Raines. With his father looking on, Raines entered as a defensive replacement in the ninth.
Cruz had not hit a home run against an opponent other than Tampa Bay since Sept. 4, against the Yankees.

choice tomorrow, according to elitehooprecruits.com.
Randolph, a 6-foot-10 native of Raleigh, N.C., has not officially ruled out the Jayhawks, but most recruiting analysts expect him to commit to Duke. North Carolina, North Carolina State and Florida are also in the mix.
Randolph would give Duke its sixth oral commitment for the 2002- 2003 season, which would give them arguably the best, if not the largest, recruiting class in the nation.
The failure to get any of these three players to commit to Kansas would leave Kansas coach Roy Williams in a desperate position to land Iowa Western Community
College forward Jeff Graves.
Iowa Western coach Jim Morris said Kansas had a great shot at Graves.
The race for Graves, a 6-foot-9 native of Lee's Summit, Mo., remains wide open, while Graves also looks at Illinois, Long Beach State, Florida State, Louisville, Tennessee and Indiana.
"He is going to visit Kansas, I think Florida State and Illinois," Morris said. "He's already visited Long Beach State, but then he's kind of open on the other ones. I think KU might be tough to beat because it's close to home, but you never know."
Kansas also remains high on Hassan Adams' list of schools. The 6-foot-5 shooting guard from Los
Angeles visited Kansas on Sept. 8, and Williams saw him once again at an in-home visit three days later.
Although Kansas is being checked off a few lists, the Jayhawks aren't short on recruits. Others considering Kansas: Moulayne Niang, a 6-foot-9 forward from El Cajon, Calif.; Kevin Bookout, a 6-foot-8 forward from Stroud, Okla.; Andre Igoudala, a 6-foot-6 swingman from Springfield, Ill.; Ted Skuchas, a 6-foot-11 center from Audubon, Pa. and Donatis Rackauskas, a 6-foot-11 center from New Hampshire.

Team struggling after first day of conference tourney in Oklahoma
As the Kansas women's golf team completed its play at the Big 12 Conference Invitational yesterday in Stillwater, Okla., it stood in 13th place looking up at the field of teams.
The tournament, which features all of the teams from the Big 12 Conference, as well as Northwestern, Ohio State, Texas Christian and Tulsa, figured to be a barometer against which the Jayhawks could measure their progress. Competition in 36 holes yesterday, however, didn't treat the Jayhawks kindly, as they slumped to a score of 647. The Jayhawks trail 12th-place Baylor by four strokes.

With the exception of MacDonald, Kansas' other juniors struggled in their rounds. Junior Tiffany Krugel shot consecutive rounds of 82 to finish tied for 52nd with a 164. Junior Heather Rose is tied for 59th after scores of 83 and 82, a total of 165, and junior Kristy Straub shot 92 and 89 for a 181 total. She stands in 80th place.

"It's personal; I got a bone to pick with them." Roe said. "But we got to get it done in the secondary with the offense they have. We need this one."
Kansas has seen a tandem of talented quarterbacks its past two games. UCLA signal caller Cory Paus has spearheaded the Bruins to a 4-0 start, good enough for a No. 9 ranking. Colorado homomore Craig Ochs led his team to a pair of second-half touchdown drives against the Jayhawks Sept. 22.
"We're going to get a chance to see if he really is one of the best quarterbacks in the Big 12,
but a team that passes a lot gives us a chance to make some plays." Davison said.

Bernice Bush, mother of senior defensive tackle Ervin Holloman, died Saturday after suffering a heart attack Sept. 24.
Holloman and his wife, Erika, lost their first-born daughter, Nia, to complications with Down syndrome. She died Jan. 6. They are expecting their second child later this month.
Kansas coach Terry Allen said he thought Bernice Bush's health had been improving late last week. He also said Holloway could miss Saturday's game against Texas Tech but hoped Holloman would remain with the football team.
"I think coming back would be good for him, but the kid's been through it," Allen said. "We're just trying to be supportive for him."

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court refused to hear Mary Slaney's challenge of drug-testing rules yesterday, ending her hopes of reclaiming a medal she lost after being accused of taking drugs.
The distance runner had claimed that birth control pills may have led to her only positive test in a 25-year career.
Slaney contested the reliability of the method used to detect levels of testosterone, as well as the arbitration process.
Slaney was stripped of the silver medal she won at the 1997 world championships after an arbitrator with the International Association of Athletics Federations concluded she had used performance-enhancing drugs in 1996. The arbitrator said she was ineligible to compete for at least two years after that test.
The use of the test on female athletes is a "sham, designed to protect their commercial interests by convincing the public that they are tough on drugs, at the expense of innocent athletes," Slaney said in her appeal.
Testosterone is a natural hormone that builds muscle mass. The IAAF's threshold for determining doping does not take into account women's bodies, Slaney said.
USA Track and Field, the governing body for the sport, had sided with Slaney. It reviewed her contested drug test, and in 1997, determined there was insufficient proof she did anything wrong. That decision was overturned in arbitration.
Slaney said in her appeal that the test, started in 1984, is flawed and should be abandoned. The Supreme Court declined to review her arguments.
She said that women's hormone levels fluctuate and that in her case she may have tested positive because of her menstrual cycle or because she had recently begun taking a new kind of birth-control pills.

Melissa McKibben contributed two tries in the four games. Sarah Ratzlaff, Shawna Gale, Allison Arvey and Sara Crangle added one try each.

Jordan says desire to play greater than fear of embarrassing himself
WASHINGTON — Michael Jordan's need to play basketball again is stronger than his fear of tarnishing his legacy.
"When I retired last time, I didn't say I was ready to quit the game," Jordan said yesterday at a news conference attended by about 200 media members. "It's an itch that still needs to be scratched here, and I don't want that itch to bother me for the rest of my life."
"What I'm trying to do is get that last scratch in," Jordan said.
Speaking in calm, measured tones on a stage set up at the Wizards' practice court, Jordan touched on several subjects related to this comeback—the third of his career.
He said he was not afraid to fail and does not want to steal the spotlight from the league's younger stars. He also said he considered himself 100 percent fit and planned to play in all 82 of Washington's games.
"If that was my concern, I wouldn't do this," Jordan said. "I'm not afraid to take on a challenge."
As for his legacy and the storybook finish to his career with the Chicago Bulls, Jordan said those factors were more important to others than to him.
He said he would try to take things slowly this season, not trying to do too much too soon. He said the Wizards should improve on last season's record of 19-63, but he'd be "surprised" if Washington was able to win 50 games.

lowa State, Nebraska players awarded Big 12 Conference honors
DALLAS—iowa State quarterback Seneca Wallace and Nebraska teammates Scott Shanle and DeJuan Groce were named the Big 12 Conference players of the week.
Wallace was the league's offensive player of the week after he completed 22 of 24 passes for a career-high 299 yards and four touchdowns and also ran for 58 yards in Iowa State's 41-0 win against Baylor. At one point, Wallace completed 18 straight passes and broke the Big 12 record for a game or season.
Shanle, a Nebraska linebacker, had a team-leading eight tackles and broke up four passes in Nebraska's 36-3 victory against Missouri and was named the defensive player of the week.
The special teams player of the week was Groce, who returned seven punts for 145 yards for an average of 20.7 yards per return for the Huskers.

'West Wing' to address tragedy
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The third season of "The West Wing" will begin tomorrow with an unusual scene for unusual times: Martin Sheen and fellow cast members directly addressing viewers.
Sheen, who plays President Bartlet in NBC's White House drama, and his co-stars have the job of preparing the TV audience for an episode inspired by the terrorist attacks.
While other entertainment series rushed to eliminate anything—shots, dialogue or stories
- that might somehow evoke memories of the tragedy, "The West Wing"creator Aaron Sorkin just as quickly embraced the challenge.
Sorkin said show's excellence has earned it the right to be bold. "The West Wing" is very likely to win its second consecutive Emmy for best drama at Sunday's ceremony on CBS.
The episode also is a brave step for a series whose fictional president is at risk of being out of step with these neo-war times.
NBC did not blindly agree to such a sensitive undertaking.
"A couple of days after the events of Sept. 11, Aaron said he had something that he wanted to say, and he thought it would be important in the history of "The West Wing" to be able to say it," said Jeff Zucker, NBC entertainment president. "We did not want to make any decisions in the emotion of the moment."
Within a week, Sorkin had a script ready that Zucker called "moving and engaging. It will leave people talking and thinking about all the issues that face us now."
Plot details were not released, but Zucker said the story titled "Isaac and Ishmael" isn't specifically about the attacks that destroyed New York's World Trade Center and damaged the Pentagon.
There is debate about what
"A couple of days after the events of Sept.11, Aaron said he had something that he wanted to say,and he thought it would be important in the history of The West Wing to be able to say it."
Jeff Zucker
Jeff Zucker NBC entertainment president
viewers want now from popular culture — mere distraction or enlightenment. But Zucker expressed confidence that Sorkin's series is on the right path.

Bad choices mar sports at Kansas
I must be the worst athlete in the history of mankind.
Every Sunday for the past four months, I drove to Overland Park the first stop on the way to the National Hockey League: men's recreational ice hockey. Bad idea.
Four months, a few hundred dollars, and all I have to show for my new sport is a busted thumb, an aching rear end and a strange rash that my pads give me.
Forget about the NHL. I worry every week that my league organizer is going to come up to me and say, "Mike, the hockey gods called, and they really don't think that you should play anymore."
So in honor of my dishonor to the sport of hockey, I give you the worst five ideas in the history of Kansas sports.
5. Necessary Roughness: Ten years ago, somebody called the Athletics Department, and made this pitch.
Movie director: Okay. We've got this movie we're making, you see, about a horrible football team that's going to lose to a bunch of made up colleges, but we're looking for a real school that they can almost beat. Could you guys be that terrible team that almost loses to this band of misfits?
Athletics Department: Sure.
Sounds great.
Movie Director: Oh, one more thing. We cast Kathy Ireland to be the kicker, and we need a Jayhawk to try and attack her at the end of the game, only to be kicked in the crotch
Athletics Department: A Kansas player getting kicked in the crotch in a major motion picture? Where do we sign?
4. DeShawn heads to the NBA:
I know that this topic has already been well covered this year, but one time Kansas recruit DeShawn Stevenson was picked up during the summer for having sex with a 14-year-old.
Stevenson, who went to the NBA instead of college, has surely regretted his decision. Instead of honing his game — and life — under the tutelage of Roy Williams, Stevenson had to plea bargain his way out of the pen. Nice call. DeShawn.
3. Men's intramural football: So I was watching some intramural games the other day, (the television was broken, and I didn't want to resort to human interaction for entertainment) and I realized what a joke this was.
It was 16 guys who think that they're in the NFL running no-huddle offenses, yelling at the officials and generally making morons out of themselves. Seriously, guys. Settle down or don't play.
2. Talk of a new basketball arena: Need I say more than "Naismith Court at Sprint Fieldhouse?"
1. Jersey Retirement: At Allen Fieldhouse, the names and numbers of Jayhawk greats are hanging from the rafters. But the numbers of players such as Wilt Chamberlain and Danny Manning aren't retired, their jerseys are. So anybody can wear, say, Chamberlain's number 13 — such as Jeff Boschee.
I don't understand why Kansas doesn't retire jersey numbers like everybody else. But I don't understand a lot of things in my life right now,including ice hockey.

Tigers nip'Hawks at home
Loss marks the end of team's perfect home record
By Steve Laurenzo
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team's perfect home record came to an end last night as the Jayhawks fell to the Missouri Tigers at Horejsi Family Athletic Center.
The Jayhawks took game two on the strength of a 10-0 run, winning 30-21, but lost games one, three and four, 30-21, 30-25 and 30-17.
But despite the loss, sophomore outside hitter Abbie Jacobson had her third outstanding game in a row. She led the Jayhawks with 11 kills and added nine digs.
"She's still trying to feel her way through the game," said coach Ray Beachard. "She's got a lot of good energy, and she's very athletic. We're excited about her progress."
Bechard said the team adjusted well after a poor performance in the first game.
"Game one I was really disappointed in," Bechard said. "I just didn't think we really responded very well. I didn't think either team was necessarily sharp, but they won more of the bigger points."
After the first point, starting sophomore outside hitter Sarah Rome ran hard into the scoring table and had to leave the game. Freshman outside hitter Danielle McHenry came in for Rome. Rome returned 13 points later.
"She jolted her sternum a little bit and got her wind knocked out," Bechard said. "I think she's OK.
McHenry is very capable, so we gave her a chance and then when Abbie and Dani needed a little break, we brought Rome in. Those three players will platoon a lot. They all provide certain things for us, so they'll all get their chance in a match like tonight."
Bechard was impressed by his team's play in game two.
"We didn't give them any cheap points," Bechard said. "We really did a nice job getting them stuck in one rotation, but we needed a little bit more of that in games one and four."
After a fairly uneventful game three, the Tigers dominated the Jayhawks in game four, resulting in the most lopsided game of the match. Bechard said the Tigers played a near-perfect game.
"With just two hitting attack errors in the fourth game, they really played well, and they deserved to win," Bechard said. "They were more in system as the night went along and made adjustments better. Our staff and our team will take responsibility for that and try to bounce back."
Senior setter Molly LaMere had eight kills, following a seven-kill game against Colorado. LaMere said an offensive attack from her at the setter position could open up opportunities for her teammates.
"It just helps give our hitters on our side of the net a wider range of places to hit because the blockers have to respect me, and it opens up a lot of holes for our hitters," LaMere said.

Kliff's notes reveal big passing yards
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
The Red Raider football team has nothing to hide—its 6-foot-4,210-pound junior is going to let the football fly this weekend against the 1-2 Jayhawks.
Kansas freshman quarterback Mario Kinsey has thrown 42 passes in two games this season. Saturday in Austin, Texas, Texas Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury completed 40 passes.
"He's probably one of the best," said Andrew Davison, Kansas senior cornerback. "They probably got one of the best offenses in the Big 12. He should be an exciting guy to watch."
Kingsbury aired the ball out 57 times against Texas and has flung 152 passes in three games. His gaudy passing numbers have pushed him to the top of the Big 12 Conference statistical charts. His 303 yards per game, 105 completions and 69 percent completion rate are all league-
high figures. Oklahoma junior quarterback Nate Hybl has one more touchdown (six) and 36 more passing yards (946) than Kingsbury, but he also has played in one more game.
Kingsbury's climb has not wowed Texas Tech coach Mike Leach. The second-year coach has said publicly in the past few weeks that the conference's best quarterback — if not the country's — took snaps for his 2-1 football team.
Against the Longhorns, the Red Raider offense played in the hands of its quarterback. Kingsbury fielded each snap from the shotgun. Four wide receivers and a single running back gave Kingsbury five potential options on each play. Texas Tech ran the ball just eight times. The Jayhawks defensive backfield knows it has to be prepared.

"I guess you got to be excited and nervous," said sophomore cornerback Carl Ivey. "I know I'm going to be tired."
Saturday will not be the first time the
Texas Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury let the ball fly during a previous game against the 'Hawks. Kingsbury will be a major threat during the game Saturday.

Top recruits cut Kansas
Texas forwards drop Jayhawks from lists
By Ryan Malashock
Kansan sportswriter
Brad Buckman, a 6-foot-8 native of Austin, Texas, who visited Kansas on Sept. 8, has narrowed his choices of schools to North Carolina and Texas. He's expected to make a decision this week concerning his future.
Two power forwards join Kentucky recruit Bernard Cote as possible recruits that have dropped the University of Kansas from their lists of schools.
"Kansas is a great school, but I wanted to narrow my list even more and don't see myself going to school there," Buckman said.
Ike Diogu, a 6-8 forward from Garland, Texas, considered Kansas for one of his official visits but narrowed his list of finalists to five this weekend, and Kansas was not one of them.

Republicans test Senate's newest rule for funding
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
The KU College Republicans will try again to receive money from Student Senate attonight's committee meetings after being denied two weeks ago.
The Senate Finance Committee rejected a bill granting the College Republicans $409.60. This time, the organization is asking for $382 because advertising rates have decreased in such publications as The University Daily Kansan. While advertising makes up $228 of the proposed bill, the organization would spend the rest on office supplies, posters, postage and duplication services.
Branden Bell, holdover senator, said he opposed the bill allocating money to the College Republicans at the last committee meeting.
He said one of the reasons he opposed passing the bill was because the finance committee wasn't presented with any history. The College Republicans did not explain why it needed the money now.
Bell asked how the organization did its fundraising in the past. Senate wanted to hear what College Republicans did before partisan and religious groups could ask Student Senate for money.
This is the first year religious and partisan groups can request money from Senate, after Senate modified its rules and regulations last semester.
"I'm not really convinced that they need our money," Bell said. "It seems to me that they came through to make a statement."
Bell said it would be just as difficult to get the bill passed by committees as it was two weeks ago.
"it's sort of against rules and regulations that they try to pass a bill a second time." Bell said. "They will have to make a pretty stellar demonstration."
He said political affiliation wasn't the issue and that the KU Young Democrats would have to deal with the same issues if the group brought a bill before Senate.
Nora Bielat, president of KU Young Democrats, said the group had no immediate plans to ask Senate for money. She said she supported the College Republicans in seeking financial support.
Matt Steppe, Student Legislative Awareness Board director, supported the bill when it was presented in the meetings.
"It's an equal rights issue that everybody has a right to ask Senate for funding now," Steppe said.
He said the bill's failure had nothing to do with political affiliation. He said he would have supported a bill to aid the KU Young Democrats.
Steppe said he would try to convince the committees that College Republicans was worthy of and eligible for Senate money.
He said he and other senators would present more history to support their argument for passing the bill.
Anna Gregory, communications director for the Student Senate Executive Committee, said it was important to pass the bill so other political and religious organizations on campus could see that Senate could allocate money to them.

Change may aid KU transfers
Regents might expand 64-credit-hour limit; SenEx resolution disputes proposal
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
Community college students may be able to transfer to a four-year university in the state with more than the present maximum of two years of credit hours, if a Board of Regents proposal is passed.
In response to the proposal, the University's Senate Executive Committee (SenEx) passed a resolution against amending the current 64-credit-hour limit.
"There are several of us who believe this will affect the educational experience of students," said Tom Beisecker, president of the University Council and ex-officio member of SenEx.
A program at Washburn University that allows as many as 84 credit hours to transfer from state community colleges sparked the controversy.
Fourteen of the 19 community colleges in the state have partnered with Washburn in this program.
The Board of Regents oversees its sixstate university members — including the University of Kansas — and those 19 community colleges.
"washburn now has a different policy than other universities," said Kathy Rupp, associate director of academic affairs for the Board of Regents. "It has been suggested we have a uniform policy."
Rupp said input had been requested
from the other schools that might be affected by such a policy.
SenExendorsed a policy allowing students to transfer up to 64 hours to KU and other four-year institutions, allowing for exceptions only for unusual circumstances. That resolution will be addressed at the University Council meeting next week.
Beisecker said he planned to address the Regents this month and explain why only two years of credit should be allowed to transfer to four-year institutions.
Robert Rowland, chairman of communication studies, agreed it would be best for the University and its students for no more than two years worth of credits to transfer.
"We feel students are going to get a better education here," he said.
As a research institution, Rowland said there was a difference in atmosphere, facilities and faculty at KU, which reflects the different missions at a fouryear school and a community college.
The Regents have given money to Washburn since 1991.
However, if Regents allow the Washburn program to continue, community colleges may be able to generate more revenue if students were allowed to transfer more hours to four-year institutions.
"It would provide them with the opportunity for more credit-hour production," Beisecker said.
I am so excited to be here! I can see everyone smiling and having fun. The party is going well. We'll miss you all very much.
Minority students at home with Hemenway

Kansan staff writer
Making the administration aware of minority issues is one reason why Alex Guerrero attended a meeting with the chancellor yesterday.
The other — to get to know the chancellor better.
"My sophomore year, I first met him at a reception for minority students," he said. "But I didn't really know of him until I got more into school and heard about him."
LaToya Betts, Kansas City, Kan., junior, conducts the Inspirational Gospel Voices in "Lord, I Lift Your Name on High." The choir performed Tuesday at Chancellor Robert Hemenway's house as part of the chancellor's reception for minorities.
Guerrero and about 100 people attended a reception yesterday for minority students at Chancellor Hemenway's house. The Office of Multicultural Affairs and the chancellor's office sponsored the event.
JOHN NOWAK/KANSAN
"It's important that we represent our culture and diversity and get connected with other people," said Guerrero, a Topeka senior, and member of the Hispanic American Leadership Organization.
He said the reception helped him get to know the chancellor, see the diversity of the University, and network with other minority students.
"I think it's fun for students to come together and convey a sense of unity." Hemenway said. The chancellor also talked about the importance of a diversity in a university community.
Chris Haydel, Philadelphia graduate student, said the event
provided a chance to meet other minority students and learn about the different organizations.
Amy Wong. Topeka senior, said she attended the reception to show that Asian-American stu
dents were involved on campus.
"This is a good thing so the chancellor knows what some student issues are," she said.
Inspirational Gospel Voices also performed during the
reception. Representatives from the Asian American Student Union, Black Graduate Student Association, Black Student Union, First Nations Student Association, HALO, the
KU chapter of the NAACP and the National Panhellenic Council attended the event, as well as some faculty and staff.

Pay phones' fate not yet decided
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
University may keep profitable phones, consolidate others
The pay phones still work, but might be removed in the near future. Southwestern Bell, the provider of all pay phones on campus, has plans to remove 40,000 phones across the state, Louis said. He said he was unsure how many of those would be on the KU campus.
Red signs on pay phones around campus that say the phones have been disconnected and that removal is pending are not entirely true.
"The situation is changing as we speak," said John Louis, director of Networking and Telecommunications Services at the University of Kansas.
He said the dean of students' office provided Southwestern Bell a list of the
most often used pay phones on campus.
Adam Obley, campus safety advisory board chairman, said the dean of students' office released a memo listing 27 pay phones that would remain on campus. Those phones were selected because they bring in an average of at least $1.50 a day, which is an arbitrary number set by the University and Southwestern Bell, Obley said.
He said some buildings with groups of three or four phones would be consolidated to one. This would most likely happen at the Visitor's Center and Shenk Complex.
Obley said if the Visitor's Center and Shenk Complex were left with one phone each, Southwestern Bel might begin to charge KU to keep those two phones.
Phones expected to stay:
Louis said the University wasn't required to pay for the pay phones now, but a fee could be part of the deal between KU and Southwestern Bell.

students to distribute ribbons information on breast cancer
If Wescoe Beach is awash in pink today, it's to raise awareness among students about breast cancer.
Students from Jayhawk Communications will distribute pink ribbons and information about breast cancer from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and will continue through tomorrow.
The Breast Cancer Awareness campaign is a part of Lee National Denim Day on Friday, a nationwide campaign to benefit the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
"Students can put on a ribbon in support of a friend or a family member who may be affected by breast cancer," Bietka said.
The tables at Wesco and also at the dining halls will accept donations, but Kelly Bietka, a member of Jayhawk Communications, said the ribbons and information were free.
Donations will go toward research funding and education, as well as breast cancer screening and treatment projects. Last year, KU students raised $1,300.

NATO confirms evidence pointing to bin Laden
The Associated Press
BRUSSELS, Belgium — The United States, seeking the full moral backing of its 18 NATO allies, provided "clear and compelling" evidence yesterday of Osama bin Laden's involvement in terror attacks on New York and Washington. NATO Secretary-General Lord Robertson said.
He said the allies have determined that the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon were directed from abroad and thus are covered by NATO's Article 5 — which says an attack on one member is an attack on all.
"The facts are clear and compelling," Robertson told reporters after a top U.S. counterterrorism official gave NATO's ruling council a classified briefing. "The information presented points conclusively to an al-Qaida role in the Sept. 11 attacks.
"We know that the individuals who carried out these attacks were part of the worldwide terrorist network of al-Qaida, headed by
Osama bin Laden and his key lieutenants and protected by the Taliban" government in Afghanistan.
The allies had already declared their full backing for the United States in its war against terrorism.
Invoking Article 5 merely adds political weight. It is morally, but not legally binding. A country may still decline to take a specific action.
In Washington, President Bush welcomed Robertson's statement.
As Ambassador at-Large Francis X. Taylor, head of counterterrorism at the State Department, was briefing the allies, Bush again threatened the Taliban, who he said are harboring bin Laden and other members of his network.
"I have said that the Taliban must turn over the al-Qaida organization living in Afghanistan and must destroy the terrorist camps," Bush said. "They must do so, otherwise there will be a consequence. There are no negotiations."
Klan leader opts for guilty plea
The Associated Press
AUBURN, Ind. — A Ku Klux Klan leader pleaded guilty to a conspiracy count in connection with charges he held a television news crew hostage after he became angry during an interview.
Jeff Berry agreed to the deal with prosecutors Monday, the day before his trial was to begin. He pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit criminal confinement with a deadly weapon, said Monte Brown, DeKalb County prosecutor. Three other charges were dropped.
The charges were filed against Berry, imperial wizard of the DeKalb County-based American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, after the confrontation with reporter George Sells IV and camerawoman Heidi Thiel of WHASTV in Louisville, Kv.
The two said they interviewed Berry at his home in Newville in 1999, but he became angry when he learned the story also would include comment from a Klan critic.
He decided he no longer wanted to be part
of the story and refused to let them leave until they surrendered the video of the interview with him, they said. Another man, who carried a gun, locked the door.
Berry took two tapes from Thiel's camera before allowing the two to leave, they said.
Sentencing was set for Dec. 3. If the judge accepts the plea, Berry,48, faces up to 10 years in prison under sentencing guidelines,Brown said.
WHAS-TV news director Maria Reitan said the station was pleased with the guilty plea. Sells and Thiel won a $120,000 civil judgment against Berry this year in federal court. An appeal of that judgment is pending.
Berry's attorney, Robert Love, did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
Brown said no one else was ever charged in the case. Police were not able to identify the man with the shotgun. A woman who allegedly had a minor role in the confrontation locking up some television equipment in a closet -was not charged.

Weekly steroids may harm, not benefit premature babies
CHICAGO - Giving pregnant women weekly steroid shots to reduce complications in premature infants offers little or no benefit in most cases and may even lead to brain damage in newborns, researchers say.
While a single set of shots given two to seven days before childbirth can reduce the risk of lung ailments and death in premature babies, women should probably not be prescribed repeated doses, the researchers reported in Wednesday's Journal of the American Medical Association.
At issue are corticosteroids, drugs that simulate adrenal gland hormones and can reduce inflammation and help premature babies mature.
A National Institutes of Health panel in 1994 recommended a course of steroid shots for women at risk of giving birth between the 24th and 34th week of pregnancy. That led many doctors to give women repeated doses.
While weekly shots in very premature infants studied reduced the risk of severe respiratory distress syndrome, a lung disorder common in prematurity, the researchers stopped the study early for safety reasons.
North Carolina governor cuts inmate's death sentence to life
RALEIGH, N.C. — Gov. Mike Easley commuted the death sentence of an inmate who had argued that Easley should not hear clemency pleas because he once advocated capital punishment as a prosecutor.
Robert Bacon Jr.'s sentence was reduced to life in prison. He had been scheduled to die by injection Friday for the 1987 stabbing death of his lover's husband.
Prosecutors argued that Bacon's lover, Bonnie Clark, plotted the killing of her husband, Marine Sgt. Glennie Clark, for a share of a $130,000 life insurance policy. Mrs. Clark received a life sentence for the murder.
Bacon's attorney, Gretchen Engel of the Center for Death Penalty Litigation, has also argued that the jury in Bacon's case was racially biased. Bacon is African American and Bonnie Clark is Caucasian, and a former juror said in an affidavit that jurors made negative comments about interracial relationships.

Clinic to offer stress-busting tips
Stressed students can find help at health center
By Matt Norton Kansan staff writer
Staci Diamond said studying outside was a relaxing break from her stressful life.
The Dallas freshman said a Hebrew test, psychology experiments, and an English paper were all bearing down on her.
When asked if she was stressed out, Diamond had a one-word response — "Yes!"
She shouldn't worry, help is on the way.
John Wade, staff psychologist at Counseling and Psychological Services at Watkins Memorial Health Center, is holding a Stress-
Stressbusters Clinic on how to deal with stress:
■ When: 6:30 to 8 p.m. tonight
When: 8:30 to 8 p.m. t.
Where: Crimson and Blue Room on the second floor of Watkins
Who: John Wade, staff psychologist at CAPS will go over techniques to reduce stress
busters Clinic, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. tonight in the Crimson and Blue Room on the second floor of Watkins.
The clinic is free to students.
Wade said the clinic was an outgrowth of previous five-session clinics on stress, which had been given for several years. He said many students were too busy
to attend multiple sessions, so he decided to condense the information into one 90-minute seminar.
The clinic includes a brief overview of what causes stress, and some physical and cognitive tools to cope with stress, including breathing exercises, Wade said.
Many students come to CAPS to help deal with issues related to stress, Wade said. Students coming in for other reasons usually find stress is making the problems worse. he said.
Diamond said she dealt with stress by working out, writing down her schedule to manage study times and making time for some non-school reading or listening to music.
Caleb Chatfield, Belleville senior, said he had two or three papers due in the coming weeks.
"Usually if I get out and run, that takes a lot of it away."

Panelists offer insights into ignorance
Diversity panel discusses people's intolerance and oppression
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
David Utter said he was proud to be homosexual, but that he used to angrily deal with those who had issues with his sexuality.
"I would attack them, not physically but verbally," the Minneapolis junior said. "I would let them have it. I learned that wasn't the best way to deal with things."
He and three other panelists shared their experiences of oppression last night at the Kansas Union during "Everybody Gets the Blues: A Spin on Oppression," part of the Diversity Dialogue Series "Cross Talk: Culture, Communication and
Community."
About 25 people attended the event, sponsored by the Multicultural Resource Center, Office of Multicultural Affairs and the KU Coalition Against Racism and Discrimination.
Utter said he tried to figure out why some people would make offensive statements.
"I understand ignorance happens," he said. "I try to talk to people and find out where they were coming from."
Laura Razo, program manager for KU Continuing Education, is Mexican American and Native American. She said she tried to deal with oppression in a positive manner.
"I try to initiate conversation," Razo said. "I try to present myself as a positive image in all I do."
Toni Tsatoke, Carnegie, Okla., senior at Haskell Indian Nations University and member of the Kiowa tribe of Oklahoma, said
the absence of role models was a major factor in the lives of Native Americans.
"I grew up with a poor sense of identity," she said, "I built up anger."
Jay Mule, Ardmore, Okla., graduate student and member of the Choctaw tribe, said he felt alienated in the classroom growing up and wasn't interested in education. But he said he developed an appreciation of his culture.
"Once I was enlightened about the contributions of my people, it instilled in me a high degree of pride." Mule said.
Following the panel discussion, some audience members stayed and discussed issues of oppression.
Rachel Bruggeman, Wichita sophomore, said she attended the dialogue event because she liked to break stereotypes.
"I never understood oppres

EDITORIAL
Parking changes would improve campus safety
Opening restricted lots to students by 7:30 p.m. would eliminate walking long distances in dark
Now that classes are in full swing and everyone is beginning to get comfortable with their schedules, one thing students do not want to take for granted is their personal security.
The days are getting shorter and it's getting dark earlier, and students who attend night classes on campus need to be especially aware of their surroundings when walking alone in the dark.
One thing that would improve the security of students who have to be on campus in the evening is if some of the parking lots on or near campus were open to students earlier.
Although it is still light outside when going to class, coming out of class is a different story.
Most of the parking lots on or near campus are not open to public parking until 7:30 p.m. The only lots that open before then are the yellow lots that are furthest away from campus. Students who have night classes, which typically begin at 7 p.m., are forced to park in the yellow lots to avoid receiving tickets.
Students must walk to either the Kansas Union parking lot or down to the parking lot by Robinson from their classes.
There are several lots that could be opened earlier. Parking lots like those behind Strong Hall, the military science building and Stauffer-Flint Hall are restricted until 7:30 p.m.
A few of them could be opened as security lots where students could park before their night classes.
These lots are designated for teachers and staff during the days and are typically empty by 6 p.m. after the offices close.
These lots sit there with only a few cars in them until 7:30 when students can finally use them. It wouldn't hurt to open a couple of them up to the students for our safety.
The University has installed emergency phones and more lighting to make campus safer for students at night.
But even with such measures, it is still dangerous for a lone student to be walking very far to his or her car late at night.
It would be an easy solution and a way to really help campus become a safer place.
Safety of the students should be a top priority here at the University, and it should be taken very seriously.
-Brett Norman for the editorial board
Designating a few safety lots for students would be an easy way to make campus safer.
The Parking Department should post signs in a the parking lots that label them as parking for students at night. This is a step that the parking department can make in the right direction to help the KU community become a safer place.

Readers can help 'Kansan' cover more campus news
Readers who wish to report news tips to the Kansan often don't know where to begin. Simply calling the newsroom or sending a fax may not be the most effective way of getting your name in print.
The next time you have a story idea or you want some coverage for your organization in the Kansan, you may see results if you keep the following in mind:
Know your beat: Each reporter is assigned an area of coverage known as a "beat." The next time you call the Kansan with a news tip, know which reporter would usually cover your story, and ask for him or her by name.
If they are not available, usually a campus editor will be around. The campus editors help the reporters develop ideas and news angles for their stories. They are your next best source.
If all else fails, leave a message for the respective reporter. Be persistent.
Tip: Michelle Burhenn covers KU police, Jeremy Clarkson covers greeks and housing, Courtney Craigmile covers Lawrence police and the City Commission, Luke Daley covers Student Senate, J.R.

Just the facts: When talking to reporters, tell them as much as you can and get to the point. Stories should be of interest to students and have some type of connection to the University of Kansas. Also, remember you should always consider yourself "on the record," meaning anything you tell the reporter is subject being in the newspaper.
Brooke Hesler, campus editor, says it helps reporters if you provide a press release or simple memo of all the information you tell them. Hesler says e-mailing press releases is usually more efficient than faxing them.
It also helps if you can provide other sources pertinent to the story and their contact information.
Tip: In addition to calling, you should e-mail any press releases to both writer@kansan.com and editor@kansan.com. You can also directly turn in press releases to campus editors in the newsroom or leave a copy in their mailbox.
Respect deadlines: The reporters are full-time students, too. They work on deadline and need to turn stories in by 4 p.m. the day before it appears in the paper. Be sure to return phone calls from reporters as soon as possible.
Tip: If possible, give the reporter at least a week's notice before an event. Reporters decide story ideas on Fridays for the upcoming week.
"Free" Advertising: The On Campus section on page 2A is a great way to get a quick bite in about a club meeting or a special event. This section usually does not provide any details, but it does list times, places and contact information for your organization. The brief usually runs on only the day of the event.
These tips won't guarantee the Kansan will cover what you want, but at least it's a start. Reporters are always looking for new story ideas. If you want the Kansan to work for you, you have to remember to work with the Kansan.
Tip: Fill out an On Campus form in the newsroom (11 Stauffer Flint Hall) or log onto www.kansan.com and click on Services and then Calendar. You also can e-mail your announcement to readerserse@kansan.com. Turn in requests at least three days in advance.

Protests need an injection of creativity
Dear Protesters
Ihope this letter finds you all in good spirits. Last weekend was great weather for banners, marches and camaraderie in the park. I can only hope this lovely season continues. Some of my friends get pretty upset about you guys, but me, I think the whole thing is great. The protests are fairly harmless as far as having a huge impact on the way America conducts itself, and it seems a wonderful way for folks to get together and practice free speech.
I think deep down my affection for protesters stems from my love of folk music. All the guitar-strumming, bearded conservatives play country-western, and the genre really isn't my cup of tea. Historically, the most fertile ground for good folk rock is collegiate liberal protesters. But so far this whole movement has been a real let down. So, in the spirit of social criticism, here is some feedback I hope will lead to improvements in future protests.
Robert Chamberlain
Columnist

First and foremost, write some new songs. John Lennon was a creative genius, not lead singer for a third-rate cover band. So singing "Imagine" instead of writing new music would seem to undermine this whole protest thing, and make it seem like a Vietnam wannabe (which surely it isn't). If the current situation is really that upsetting, I'm sure it will enable someone in the protest community to tap their previously unrealized creativity. New

songs for a new era, that's what I say.
Second, if you're going to advocate anarchy, it's helpful to behave like anarchists. Sacco and Vincetti didn't wear matching suits to court, so you shouldn't all wear matching clothes to rallies. The whole matching flags and large symbols that signify group identity don't really help much either. Remember, you're fighting for individual freedom — don't succumb to mindless groupthink. Next time out, I would think that at least one anarchist would wear a nice pastel button-down shirt. Fight conformity!
Third, if you really believe in individual choice, let individuals make choices. If a whole lot of individuals want to shop at the Gap, don't deny them the opportunity to express themselves by forcing their favorite store to relocate. Having more stores downtown gives folks more options. Don't make decisions for people; celebrate diversity!
we can on American policy. So if you're only reading Chomsky to inform your worldview, you're going to get some pretty odd ideas. Try offsetting his bias with bias in another direction.
Fourth, Noam Chomsky is a provocateur. He says so himself. His goal is to put as ugly and controversial a face as
For every Chomsky piece you read, peruse a report by the Heritage Foundation on the same topic. And then see if the library has any good histories available. Hopefully synthesizing all these ideas will allow you to develop a new, deeper understanding of the salient issues. Besides, I hear that minds are like parachutes; they work best when they're open.
I'm not sure if this letter will help at all. In fact, the realist in me says it won't. But I'm a dreamer, and I imagine a world in which people adhere to their bumper sticker slogans.
A world where everyone respects an individual's right to express himself or herself. A world that's not driven by grouptink, and that doesn't judge people just because their clothes say Abercrombie. A world where organizing informed opinions based on meticulous research is more important than organizing a march.
I'm not sure how to bring that world about, but I have a feeling that the answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind. The answer is blowing in the wind.

Wichita rethinks gay benefits
The Associated Press
WICHITA — Sedgwick County's new insurance benefits for unmarried domestic partners may not last more than a week.
County commissioners appear to have the votes to overturn County Manager William Buchanan's decision to offer employees the option of extending their health coverage to gay or straight partners.
Commissioners put the item on today's agenda after receiving numerous phone calls and e-mails from constituents who say the policy gives official sanction to sinful unions.
Employees were told of their option to cover domestic partners in a packet of materials outlining insurance plans for 2002. Employees could sign up for the benefits beginning Monday.
Commissioner Tim Norton said he originally was willing to defer to Buchanan and the county's human resources staff. But now, he said, he would probably vote to rescind the policy because of pressure from residents.
"I don't know that this is the right time, or the right place, for us to be stepping out and taking a leadership role on a social issue like this," he said.
Commissioners Carolyn McGinn and Ben Sciortino said last week they opposed the policy because they thought the county's health benefits should be reserved only for employees and their immediate families.
Buchanan said he approved the domestic partner policy to keep the county competitive in recruiting and retaining the best employees possible. He was not required to get the commissioners' approval beforehand, although he did discuss it with them
Domestic partner benefits are common among many of Wichita's major employers, such as Boeing Co. Such benefits also are routinely offered by government agencies on both coasts.
Yet in a stretch of the country from the Mississippi River to Arizona, domestic partner benefits are offered by local governments in only four metropolitan areas: Denver; Albuquerque, N.M.; Austin, Texas; and Iowa City, Iowa.
"Nationwide, it's been going on for a good while," Norton said. "But in the Midwest, we're probably a little far up on the curve. Whether you call it Midwest values or Moral Majority or whatever you call it, I think that's what you have to deal with in the Midwest."
Sept.11 victim survives burns
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A young securities broker who was enveloped in a fireball on the 82nd floor of the World Trade Center said yesterday he remembered thinking. "Please, God, just make it quick."
Despite burns covering a third of his body, from his ankles to his face, and pain so severe he wouldn't let his co-workers touch him. Manu Dhingra, 27, survived his hellish experience in the Sept. 11 terrorist attack. Yesterday he became the first victim released from the New York Weill Cornell Burn Center.
Wearing a Yankee cap and a New York Firefighters Foundation shirt plus wraps on his arms and heavy lotion on his face and hands — Dhingra said he could not explain "why I
have a second chance" when thousands of others did not.
"I just can't let it go to waste," he vowed at a news conference at the hospital. "Life can't be normal."
Dhingra said he had just emerged from the elevator for a day of trading at Andover Brokerage when "I was just covered in a ball of fire."
"I thought it was over," he said. "I thought it was a bomb."
Then he realized he was alive and that "there's nobody going to come up to the 82nd floor." so he began walking down despite the searing pain.
Two co-workers helped him, clearing the way as they descended the numbing flights of stairs and occasionally fetching water for his rapidly dehydrating body. But "my friends couldn't touch me," he said.
Their greatest help, he said, was in deceiving him about the trip down. Once, when he wanted to rest, they told him to keep going because there were just 10 floors left. He found out later they were on the 61st floor.
"I owe a lot to them for lying to me." Dhingra said.
Somehow, he completed the march down and was bundled into an ambulance. He did not know the twin towers had collapsed until he was safely in the hospital, he said.
There are 14 Trade Center victims still at the burn unit, "most of them worse than me," Dhingra said. "I get inspiration from them."
He said he wasn't sure when—or if—he would return to work. But he said he was rallied by the spirit of unity in New York.
Accidents decrease when laws restrict teenage licensing
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Restricting teenagers' driving privileges until they prove their abilities behind the wheel can dramatically reduce crashes involving 16-year-olds, according to studies of "graduated license" laws in Michigan and North Carolina.
the programs work by simply limiting the amount of time teenagers spend driving, or by less obvious means, such as rewarding safe driving with more privileges. The studies said both may help explain the programs' success.
Traffic accidents are the leading cause of death among U.S. teens, and the youngest drivers have the highest likelihood of crashing. In the past four years, 34 states and Washington, D.C., have enacted graduated licensing programs, researchers said.
Michigan and North Carolina enacted theirs in 1997. The studies compared crash statistics there in 1996 and 1999.
In Michigan, 16-year-olds were 25 percent less likely to get into a car crash in 1999, said researchers led by Jean Shope of the University of Michigan.
In North Carolina, the risk of a crash dropped 23 percent among 16-year-olds. Nighttime crashes involving 16-year-olds declined by 43 percent, and fatal crashes plunged 57 percent.
"In North Carolina, during 1999 alone, the result was dozens of lives preserved, thousands of injuries prevented, and millions of dollars saved." Robert Foss and colleagues at the University of North Carolina's Highway Safety Research Center wrote in Wednesday's Journal of the American Medical Association.
North Carolina requires motorists who are at least 15 to drive with an adult for the first year of their licenses. Teens who have no traffic violations in the final six months and pass a road test may obtain a less restrictive license, allowing unsupervised daytime driving. They then must complete at least six continuous months of driving with no traffic violations to get a full, unrestricted license. Michigan has similar restrictions.
In an accompanying editorial, researcher Anne T. McCartt called the results encouraging but said further studies were needed to identify which restrictions are most effective.

Britain joins U.S., warns Taliban
The Associated Press
BRIGHTON, England — Prime Minister Tony Blair forcefully made the case for an assault on Afghanistan's Taliban regime, warning yesterday that they must "surrender the terrorists or surrender power."
In an emotional speech to his Labor Party, Blair positioned Britain squarely with the United States and delivered the toughest warning yet by a European leader.
The Taliban ambassador to Pakistan, Abdul Salam Zaeef, dismissed the threats by the United States and its allies, telling a news conference in Quetta, Pakistan, "Only Allah changes the regime, and only
Allah brings the others instead of us."
The White House welcomed Blair's remarks.
The British prime minister spoke just hours after President Bush had warned that "there will be a consequence" if the Taliban failed to turn over Osama bin Laden and his network and destroy his training camps. U.S. officials said the White House had coordinated with Blair about what he would say.
Speaking to 3,000 delegates at his party's annual conference, Blair said the Taliban had ignored demands to hand over bin Laden, prime suspect in the Sept. 11 attacks on New York and Washington, but he stopped short of declaring that military strikes against Afghanistan were inevitable.
"I say to the Taliban: surrender the terrorists, or surrender power. It's your choice," Blair said.
"Be in no doubt, bin Laden and his people organized this atrocity," the prime minister said. "The Taliban aid and abet him. He will not desist from further acts of terror. They will not stop helping him."
"Whatever the dangers of the action we take, the dangers of inaction are far, far greater," Blair said.
New Irish bill could allow some abortions
The Associated Press
DUBLIN, Ireland — Irish Prime Minister Bertie Ahern yesterday reopened one of the most divisive arguments in this predominantly Roman Catholic country — when, if ever, doctors should be allowed to perform abortions.
After nearly a decade of political debate and delay, Ahern published the Human Life and Pregnancy Bill, which, if approved, would allow doctors to terminate pregnancies when women's lives were at risk, except in instances of threatened suicide.
Yesterday's bill also would legalize the so-called morning after pill, taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex to prevent pregnancy. Women seeking the pills now have
to order them from Northern Ireland or Britain.
The bill also proposed creating a new government-financed crisis pregnancy agency that Ahern said would offer "caring, practical intervention" in hopes of reducing the approximately 6,500 women who travel each year to Britain for abortions.
Ahern said the bill was designed to reconcile conflicting demands in the country's constitution, which bars all abortions, and a 1992 Supreme Court judgment that an abortion should be permitted when a woman might otherwise die.
"We welcome the fact there'll be a referendum, and that there's very definite pro-life overtones in the whole package," said Des Hanafin, a veteran campaigner against abortion.

What's News- In Business and Finance
As signs of economic recession multiply, the White House and Congress scrambled to devise a legislative package aimed at stimulating the U.S. economy.
The government can pump more money into the economy either by increasing its own spending or giving tax revenues back to households and companies through tax relief. The main issues still to be decided: Should the emphasis be on tax cuts or spending increases? Should the tax cuts be temporary or permanent? Should the emphasis be on consumers or businesses?
What Kind of Help Is Best for Economy?
Meanwhile, some analysts worry that aggressive interest-rate cutting by the Federal Reserve may not stimulate spending at a time when consumers are worried about their jobs, and businesses are stuck with too much capacity.
Airlines Cut Flights As Well as Fares
With planes flying half-empty these days, big airlines are starting to cut fares.
Despite the steep decline in air traffic since the Sept. 11 attacks, most major airlines have been slow to discount their ticket prices to attract business. Carriers have feared appearing opportunistic or insensitive, and they weren't sure cheaper fares would entice jittery customers anyway. One notable exception: Southwest Airlines, which launched a fare sale and new, patriotic advertising to dr up business. Now other major airlines have started to offer deep discounts as well.
Meanwhile, carriers keep laying off employees—and cutting the number of flights. Last Friday, for instance, United said it would reduce its capacity to 74% of what it offered prior to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

After One-Way Trips
Rental Cars Adrift After One-Way Trips
Rental-car companies are trying to put their fleets back together.
When airlines were grounded after the Sept. 11 terror attacks, thousands of stranded travelers hit the road instead, picking up rental cars and taking them on one-way trips.
Now rental companies are trying to relocate thousands of vehicles, some left in remote areas around the country, some simply abandoned in parking lots. Among the solutions rental companies are working on: slashing prices on one-way rentals and selling the displaced cars.
Microsoft Sued, Passport Challenge $ ^{1} $
Competitors of Microsoft Corp. served up two new challenges to the software giant.
Software maker Novell Inc. said it sued Microsoft in federal court, alleging that Microsoft made "false and misleading statements" about Novell in statements to customers.
Those statements, Novell said, were made on ersatz cereal boxes called "Microsoft Server Crunch" that Microsoft sent to Novell customers in a marketing campaign. Microsoft said on the box that Novell was shifting its focus from software development to consulting, so customers using Novell's NetWare software would lack proper support, and would therefore face higher costs, Novell said in a statement.
Microsoft declined comment.
Meanwhile, Sun Microsystems Inc. has recruited 32 other big companies to become charter members of an online identification alliance likely to compete with Microsoft's high-profile Passport system. The effort, dubbed the Liberty Alliance Project, plans to set technical ground rules to allow users of PCs, cellphones and other products to get

access to all kinds of Internet resources by logging on just once. That is also the stated goal of Passport—but many companies view Microsoft as a potential competitor in Internet services, or feel more comfortable with standards set by a group rather than by one company.
Sun and other participants hope Microsoft will join the Liberty effort. Microsoft said it would consider working with the alliance, but said it makes more sense for the group to adopt Passport's proposals, since it has a head start.
TV Programmers Tweak for Terror
TV networks have been scrutinizing their shows, looking for anything that might upset viewers by reminding them of Sept. 11. NBC backed out of a planned "Law & Order" ministeries that dealt with biological terrorism, while Fox cut footage of a plane exploding from its new CIA drama "24." Fox's sister syndication unit Twentieth Television decided to pull from reruns an episode of "The Simpsons" in which the family goes to New York to retrieve Homer's car, which is parked illegally in front of the World Trade Center.
Not everyone applauds such excising. "I'm not sure if this attempt to protect Americans from seeing these images in entertainment is such a good thing to do," said Robert Thompson, director for the Center for the Study of Popular Television at Syracuse University. "To go back and retroactively make every reference and appearance of the World Trade Center vanish is to make it worse," he says, predicting such moves will later be judged as "overreactions."
In a scene from the comedy show "Ellen" that was pulled by CBS last week, Ellen, played by Ellen DeGeneres, tells her mother that her online business has "collapsed." Her slightly ditty mother replies: "Oh, well thank your lucky stars you weren't there at the time."
Costs From Attack Not 'Extraordinary'
A task force of the Financial Accounting Standards Board has decided not to allow companies to treat costs and expenses related to the Sept. 11 attacks as an "extraordinary item" in the financial statements they file with government regulators. That means costs that companies consider attack-related won't be allowed to be broken out as a separate line item but instead will be considered costs that are part of normal business operations.
The problem was the task force felt it would be impossible to separate the direct effects of the attack from the prevailing economic conditions before the event and the impact on the economy afterwards. The impact was so pervasive, affecting virtually every company and creating such a broadly new economic landscape, that "it almost made it ordinary," a task-force member said.

Retailers Come to Grips With a Delicate Task In Time of Mourning
Holiday Cheer On Hold
H
ACKENSACK, N.J. -Christmas will be a little late this year.
In some stores, that is. Pottery Barn, for instance, had planned to bring out some of its Christmas treasures this week. Two back rooms at the Pottery Barn store in the Riverside Square shopping mall here are packed with items like jingle-bell wreaths, reindeer candelas and peppermint-candy candles that manager George Bautista simply loves. But now Mr. Bautista—like all Pottery Barn managers—will delay launching Christmas for a full month.
It's a potentially costly decision, because many retailers had been counting on early Christmas sales to combat economic weakness. But Mr. Bautista contends that sales growth matters less than decorum. "I see a lot of stores that have Christmas stuff out, and it doesn't seem right vet." he says.
"We can't pretend it's going to be the same cherry season," says Diane Broderick, a 49-year-old office manager, shopping at Riverside Square last week. She hopes that retailers ring in the holidays with "a little bit of good taste."
The weak economy posed a Christmas challenge to retailers even before Sept. 11. Now they face the delicate task of promoting holiday cheer in a season of outrage and grief.
Slowing Growth
This upscale mall is just eight miles from where the attacks on the World Trade Center occurred. But retailers everywhere share its concerns. Meanwhile, expectations for Christmas sales nationwide are sliding further. Research firm Retail
Forward Inc, is predicting fourthquarter sales growth, excluding autos and gasoline, of just 1.5%, compared with 4.5% last year.
At a Pottery Barn competitor in Riverside Square, furniture retailer Bombay Co., Christmas trees already are sparkling. "We have to go on," store manager Matthew Mazza says. Actually, Bombay launched its decorations the week of Sept. 10. The process was well under way when the terrorist attacks occurred. "We certainly didn't mean to offend anyone," says Cathy Pringle, vice president of marketing for Bombay. But "how do you stop 400 stores? It's like turning around the Queen Mary." A couple of customers have called the company, she concedes, calling it "insensitive."
3
Yet at the moment, excessive cheer is the biggest concern of most retailers at Riverside Square. They realize that many Christmas sales may already be lost; Ms. Broderick, for one, already has decided to trim her $2,000-to-$3,000 holiday budget, giving less to the malls and more to
The mall itself doesn't want any such complaints. After a year of holiday planning, marketing director Brenda Haas is scrapping Christmas ads featuring a smiling girl and replacing them with photos of products that represent security: blankets, candles and pillows in warm colors like amber and plum.
More important than salvaging Christmas is avoiding the possible long-term damage of offending customers. History offers at least one example of how to push on, but tastefully: In 1963, six days after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated, Macy's proceeded with its Thanksgiving Day parade but draped black bunting on its boats. This year, Macy's is brainstorming ways to make parts of the parade its 75th-tributes to New York and America.
Here at Riverside Square, no Christmas lights sparkle yet at anchor Saks Fifth Avenue. But plenty of holiday spirit shone in the retailer's Christmas catalog, and its executives inserted a letter into it apologizing for that. "On press prior to [Sept. 11], this catalog and other mailings may contain material and tone that are inconsistent with the gravity of these events," the note reads.
Wrong Message?
Ms. Haas also did something dramatic—she erected an 88-foot-long board with the words "United We Stand" on top, on which shoppers could write messages. But should the board remain standing when the mall starts piping in Christmas carols? Shopper Marisa Kardos, 16 years old, doesn't think so. While scribbling a message on the board herself, she says the mall should take the board down by Thanksgiving. "It could put a depressing tone to the holidays," she says.
Nothing appears to be different at Riverside Square clothing retailer Chico's. But what customers don't realize is that a Chico's television commercial underwent a crucial change after Sept. 11. In the spot, a
woman talks about growing up in Kentucky and moving to New York. At the end of the ad, she smiles and says, "New York hasn't gotten to me yet"—a line that suddenly struck Jim Frain, Chico's vice president of marketing, as unintentionally callous. On Sept. 12, the Fort Myers, Fla., retailer, which has nearly 300 stores nationwide, pulled the commercial, which it planned to run through Thanksgiving, and later edited in a new ending. Now the model says: "I like to go to Chico's when I'm looking for something really special."
charities.
Similarly, customers at the Gap store at Riverside Square won't notice the change it made in its advertising and marketing—but the changes are real nonetheless. Since Sept. 11, the big apparel retailer has banned all holiday display ideas bearing heavy amounts of the color red, plus ads with deep-red backgrounds. "Certain colors can denote feelings that tie back to something horrible that happened," says Stacy MacLean, a Gap Inc. spokeswoman.

Workers Find Fewer Jobs, Lower Pay
BY ELLIOT SPAGAT
RVING, Texas-A week before the Sept. 11 terror attacks, Robert Kearney quit a Dallas-area warehouse job that paid $9.25 an hour because he was convinced that he could make $10 an hour elsewhere for similar work.
Now, the 32-year-old is finding that the hourly wage for the work has fallen to between $7 and $8.
Javier Garcia, a 31-year-old factory worker, had three job interviews the week of the attack, all of them canceled. "There is no work," he says while culling job listings at a Texas Workforce Commission office in Arlington, outside Dallas.
Workers are quickly finding that many employers, rattled by the New York and Washington attacks and uncertain about the economy, simply aren't hiring, even in industries that don't appear to be affected by recent events. The fallout affects high-wage and low-wage earners alike. Further, with more layoffs and more worker insecurity, more and more people are looking for work.
That is especially true in areas hard hit by the slide in travel, such as the Dallas-Fort-Worth area, home to the world's fifth-busiest airport and headquarters for AMR Corp. and its American Airlines unit. Cities that rely on travel and tourism are "just getting creamed," says Mark Zandi, chief economist at economy.com, a research firm that has estimated the impact on 318 U.S. metropolitan areas.
Before the attacks, layoffs were largely confined to high-tech hot spots such as Silicon Valley and industrial regions in the Midwest and South, Mr. Zandi says. But the troubles in tourism and other industries are likely to ripple through and "take down economies that had held up pretty well," he says.
The exception to the dismal layoff picture: The government is on a hiring spree to bolster national security. Positions are available at the Federal Bureau of Investigation for speakers of Arabic, Farsi and Pashto. The Federal Aviation Administration is hiring more federal air marshals, and the U.S. Customs Department wants more inspectors at the nation's numerous points of entry.
But neither Mr. Zandi nor other economists see employment increasing generally until next year.
"Nobody really comes out of this ahead," Mr. Zandi says. "It's just a matter of how badly you are affected."

The Royal University of Fine Arts in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, performs Dance, the Spirit of Cambodia at the Lied Center on Sept. 22. The Lied Center, a department within the School of Fine Arts, seats 2,018 and is the performance facility of the department of music and dance.
Giant Steps Part1 The University of Kansas' department of music and dance takes a fresh
For Lawrence Mallett, the future of the University of Kansas' department of music and dance is simple: "One of the top 10 programs in the country. And we can be. I don't think there's any doubt about that. And it may be done in a relatively short period of time — five to 10 years."
Mallett approaches his new job as chairman of the department of music and dance with a determined air of inevitability. A new arrival from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where he served as interim dean of the Hixson-Lied College of Fine and Performing Arts and as the director of the school of music, Mallett is only one of many changes that have come to the department of music and dance in recent years.
As it stands, many more are yet to come
YESTERDAYS
Mallett can afford to be brazen about his desire to have a top 10 program. KU's department of music and dance is not a musical powerhouse like Indiana University and Northwestern, but its Master of Music degree program is ranked 26th of more than 600 nationally by U.S. News & World Report, which placed it in the top 5 percent.
Mellett: Chairman of the department of music and dance, joined the KU faculty in July.
The department already has numerous standout programs. Perhaps the most prominent of these is the Lied Center of
Kansas, which is a department within the School of Fine Arts and serves as the performance facility for the entire school, including the department of music and dance.
The Lied Center, which seats 2,018 and is known for its eclectic programming, was named one of the top university presenters in 1999 by International Arts Manager Magazine.
Adjacent to the Lied Center is the Bales Organ Recital Hall, which Dr. Mark Holmberg, an accomplished organist, professor of music theory and composition, and 31-year veteran of the department says is one of the top four or five recital halls in the United States.
The recital hall complements the division of organ and church music, which, founded in 1867, has grown into one of the largest in the country.
The department also broke ground with its music therapy program, which was the first in the nation.
Today, the University is one of only 25 institutions in the country to offer a master's degree program accredited by the American Music Therapy Association.
Another area of strength within the department is the jazz studies program, which, under the leadership of Dan Gailey for 12 years, has risen to national prominence.
Its performing organizations have been recognized by Downbeat magazine and have been invited to perform at the annual International Association of Jazz Educators convention during the past decade.
"I think the program has earned a reputation — which I am very proud of — for playing a lot of new music and being pretty much fearless as far as what we program," Gailey said.
These are important recognitions, but for Gailey they're just icing on the cake.
"When I go out to talk to people nationwide, that's what people know us for," he said.
"They know us there because we're nationally recognized through some of the honors we've received, but they also know us because of who we've had here to perform with us and the type of music we play."
The jazz program is also known for the KU Jazz Festival, which is the largest jazz festival in the Midwest. This year's featured guest will be Maria Schneider, one of the world's foremost composers of contemporary jazz.
SOMEDAY MY PRINCE WILL COME
Despite these strong programs in the department of music and dance, there are immediate challenges that will need to be addressed before it can hope to climb into the upper echelon of academic and musical excellence.
Among them is the fifth floor of Murphy Hall. Housing the bulk of the building's practice rooms, the fifth floor is a major center of activity. It is also reminiscent of a medieval dungeon.
Montgomery said five new Steinway pianos were purchased during the summer with private money from the Muriel McBrien Kauffman Foundation of Kansas City and put in rooms devoted to piano majors. The pianos occupying these rooms were freed for use by other students.
A short walk through the fifth floor makes apparent the lack of windows or adequate lighting.
The Kauffman Foundation's donations are a start toward Montgomery's goal of $2 million for 31 Steinway pianos.
Steps are being taken to address these issues, most notably the pianos, but so far the results have been relatively minimal, said Toni-Marie Montgomery, dean of fine arts.
Several practice rooms have garbage on the floor and obscenities scrawled on the walls. Many of the pianos in those same rooms are also distinctly lacking in quality, especially for an academic division devoted to the study of music.
Mallett said he hoped to work on the aesthetics of the fifth floor, too.
"I've told the faculty I hope next summer we can get enough money to at least go in and paint the rooms and do something to make the rooms more conducive to wanting to be in there," he said.
As is the story in many academic units University-wide, funding is a problem.
"Dollars overall in the department are very tight," Gailey said. "But I think what you will find is that everyone here is able to create some amazing things with money that should be more."
One situation in which the funding shortage is an unavoidable burden on the reputation of the department, however, is in touring money.
Performing for national conventions and competitions is a primary avenue for the department of music and dance to gain exposure and augment its reputation among its peers.
"The amount of money we have whether it's from state funds or endowment funds,which are really discretionary,are very limited," Mallett said. "We really have to scramble to send student ensembles to any type of state convention or national convention."
Former director of choirs Simon Carrington left the department at the end of last year to pursue other career options. Dr. Robert Foster
Furthermore, national searches will take place this year to find new directors for the band, orchestra and choral divisions.
will leave his position as director of bands after this year to take on other teaching responsibilities within the department, and orchestra director Brian Priestman will be retiring at the end of this academic year.
Mallett said he would be looking for several important criteria when replacing these instructors.
"First and foremost, someone that'll get the job done on the podium. A good musician, a good teacher, someone that can relate well with students, that can motivate students," Mallett said. "Someone that will cultivate relationships with the music teachers around the state, will be willing to really take our ensembles to the next level, and go to the national conventions."

Fullback spot could benefit Jayhawks
Kansas has no chance whatsoever of beating Texas Tech on Saturday, and here's proof.
In the proud history of Jayhawk football, Kansas has never beaten a Tech school. It is 0-9, including a 0-6 record against Texas Tech. Six straight losses against schools with names that begin with a "T" further proves Kansas' impending demise. It's just three games into the season and already hopes are waning.
I'll offer a positive outlook to lighten the mood: Kansas leads the Big 12 Conference in stopping opponents' fourth down conversion attempts. Three times opponents have attempted to prolong drives by going for it on fourth down, and each time the Jayhawks' defense has held.
The Jayhawks rank ninth in points per game (19.0), 11th in points allowed (26.0), 10th in total offense (285.3 yards) and last in total defense (411.7 yards allowed).
As for the rest of Big 12 statistics, Kansas is not so proficient.
These numbers show no significant improvement from last year's Kansas team, which finished eighth, 11th, 11th and ninth, respectively, in these four categories.
In a season that may well be Terry Allen's last as head coach, the Jayhawks needed to improve by leaps and bounds to save his job. So far, this has not been the case.
Barring a miracle, Allen's career at Kansas is over, but there is still time for Allen to make one right decision.
A fullback must be a permanent fixture in the Kansas offense. Notice that many college and professional teams rely on a fullback to provide extra blocking and an additional rushing option.
I realize that quarterback Mario Kinsey enjoys a wide-open Kansas offense with scores of receivers streaking down the field. But Kinsey is no Michael Vick, and the Kansas offensive line benefits greatly from a fullback who can help open up holes for Reggie Duncan to run through.
Last Saturday against Colorado, Kansas did use a fullback.
Mitchell Scott came in and blocked for Duncan, who rushed for 63 yards on 16 carries in the first half, a 3.9 average per run. That's a big improvement from the 1.3 yard-per-carry average that he brought into the game.
But in the second half Scott was used sparingly and Duncan's numbers suffered. He added seven yards on six carries.
Allen's decision to use Scott less in the second half didn't add up. Kansas' offense with Scott in the game was effective and the Jayhawks were doing well, clinging to 16-13 lead early in the fourth quarter. There was no reason for Scott to be on the sideline during the fourth quarter, when Colorado rallied for the victory.
Allen should learn to stay with what works by permanently inserting a fullback into the lineup.
Keeping Scott in the game might not result in more Kansas victories, but it would be a definite step in the right direction.

Flubug hits Kinsey, Allen
LEWIS 31 43 27
Coach and quarterback expected to be healthy for Texas Tech game
By Brent Briggeman
Kansan sportswriter
LAURIE SISK/KANSAN
Freshman quarterback Mario Kinsey looks for an opening in the Colorado defense during Kansas' 26-17 loss to the Buffaloes Sept. 22. Kinsey came down with the flu this week, but is expected to play against Texas Tech Saturday.
Little Alex Allen is only 1 year old, but he is already making news.
The youngest son of Kansas head football coach Terry Allen, Alex recently gave his dad the flu. The bug has since been passed to quarterback Mario Kinsey, who was noticeably ill in practice yesterday.
"I had a little bit of that crud last weekend," Allen told a group of reporters after yesterday's practice. "But it actually, it falls back to my youngest. He gave it to me and I think I passed it on to Mario."
Poor Alex, taking the blame for the latest problem to infect the Jayhawk football team.
"I hate to say it, but I think that's the case," Allen joked.
Though Allen, Kinsey, and yes, Alex are expected to be 100 percent by the weekend, the illness will diminish the quality, if not the number, of snaps Kinsey takes in practice this week.
"We'll still try to get both quarterbacks the repetitions we always would," said Rip Scherer, the Jayhawks' quarterbacks coach and co-offensive coordinator. "Mario will be ready, but so will Zach Dyer."
Kinsey alternated between bursts of energy yesterday, burning the scout team defense, and moments of rest, hacking phlegm and hanging his head between his legs.
Kinsey was unavailable for comment yesterday.
Saturday's game at Texas Tech will be the first time Kinsey, a Waco, Texas native, has played in his home state since high school.
The illness is the latest in what has been an eventful year for Kinsey. He sat out the first game while serving a one-
game suspension for breaking team rules, only to return and win the starting quarterback position from Dyer.
Kinsey and teammate Reggie Duncan face an Oct. 10 court date. They have been charged with stealing a Kansas
Cameras banned from hearing
Local media denied access to Kinsey's and Duncan's preliminary court appearance
By Jay Kraill
Kansan sports editor
A Douglas County judge has denied requests to allow cameras in the courtroom when Kansas football players Mario Kinsey and Reggie Duncan appear next week to face charges of misdemeanor theft.
Judge Peggy Kittel, who will preside over the trial, denied requests by the University Daily Kansan and Channel 6 News Lawrence.
Kinsey and Duncan are scheduled to appear at 3 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 10. Kinsey has been charged with one count of theft and two counts of criminal use of a financial
card. Duncan has been charged with one count of theft and one count of criminal use of a financial card.
Janet Reid, reporter for Channel 6, said she submitted about a half-dozen requests each month for courtroom cameras. She said that in her more than three years at the station, she could not remember ever having been denied a request for a camera during a defendant's first court appearance.
All charges stem from a June 12 purse theft in which a University of Kansas student's purse was stolen in front of Bailey Hall.

Though Kansas law requires that requests to allow cameras be submitted in writing at least two weeks before the court date, Reid said she had often submitted requests the same day or the day
"Usually we only do it for higherprofile cases," Reid said.
before the trial and had them approved.
Both Channel 6 and the Kansan submitted the requests for the Oct. 10 court appearance before the two-week deadline.
Linda Koester-Vogelsang, administrator for Douglas County District Court, said judges had the authority to determine whether cameras could be used in their courtrooms. Judges use different criteria in making the decision, she said.
"The judges are very,very conscious of the individual's rights as well as Constitutional rights"ensuring freedom of the press, Koester Vogelsang said.
Judge Kittel did not return phone calls yesterday.

Chenowith gets second chance with Kings
By Ryan Malashock Kansan sportswriter
It didn't take long for Eric Chenowith to get a second chance at the NBA.
Chenowith said he would be at Sacramento's training camp this week and that he would find out if he made the roster at the end of the week.
After having his rights renounced by the New York Knicks Sunday, the former Kansas center is in California, working out for the Sacramento Kings.
Twenty players are trying out for 15 spots on the Kings' list, which includes a 12-man roster and three-player injury reserve.
Playing for Sacramento would give the Orange, Calif., native a chance to be close to home and to compete along with former Jayhawk teammate Scot Pollard.
Wayne Cooper, Kings vice president of basketball operations, told the Sacramento Bee yesterday that the Kings had

heard rumors that Chenowith was going to be cut. They acted swiftly when he was officially released.
Needing size for the coming season, the Kings have brought in four other big men to compete for roster spots. They include 7-foot-2, 302-pound center Garth Joseph, who has played in four career NBA games; 6-10 power forward Mario Bennett, a 1995 first-round draft choice by the Phoenix Suns; 6-8 power forward Torrye Braggs, a Utah Jazz draft choice in 1998; and 6-11 forward Jabari Smith, who was with the Kings last season before they renounced his rights on June 30.

Badgers face third violation after athletes receive store discounts
NCAA penalizes Wisconsin
S
The Associated Press
MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin was put on five years' probation and lost some football and basketball scholarships yesterday after an investigation found a shoe store gave discounts to athletes.
The NCAA said the university failed to adequately monitor its athletic programs, especially because this was the school's third major rules violation in eight years.
The NCAA, however, did not strip the school of any postseason awards, including its 2000 trip to the men's Final Four.
"Given the institution's recent history of major violations of NCAA legislation, the committee believed that the university should have had a heightened sense of vigilance with respect to strict adherence to NCAA legislation." the NCAA said in its report
In April, the university put itself on three years' probation.
penalized itself $150,000 and stripped five scholarships during the next three years — four from football and one from men's basketball.
In addition, the NCAA reduced the number of football scholarships the university can offer in the 2002-03 and 2003-04 school years from 25 to 20. It also ordered the school to cut a men's basketball scholarship in 2003-04.
The university's investigation found that 157 athletes in 14 sports violated NCAA rules by accepting at least $23,000 in unadvertised discounts from The Shoe Box, a store 25 miles from Madison in Black Earth.
In some cases, athletes received no-interest credit arrangements that weren't generally available to other students. A report in the Wisconsin State Journal prompted the university's investigation.
The university has since banned athletes, coaches and athletics administrators from shopping at The Shoe Box.
"This was hundreds of kids involving thousands of dollars. That's significant," said Tom Yea.

Chancellor John Wiley reprimanded athletics director Pat Richter and compliance officer Tim Bald for their failure to properly investigate the accusations. Both received letters of reprimand, and Richter's salary was frozen for one year.
All the athletes were ordered to pay a charity the amount of their improper discounts. Some athletes were suspended and ordered to perform community service.
All three major rules violations occurred during Richter's term as athletic director.
NFL confident of switch,proposed date same as auto dealers convention
Super Bowl date negotiated
The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — Even though the mayor of New Orleans was all but certain the Super Bowl would be played there on Feb. 3, the NFL and an auto dealers group were still working yesterday to resolve problems with switching dates.
A switch with the auto dealers involves arrangements with hundreds of exhibitors and thousands of delegates, all who have reservations and schedules in place.
"This is not a done deal yet," said David Hyatt, spokesman for the National Automobile Dealers
Association. "We have logistical problems. We have some other problems."
Hyatt said a NADA committee sent a reworded copy of the latest NFL proposal back to the league for what he called "technical clarifications." He would not elaborate.
He said four major hotels, including the Hilton, had not returned agreements guaranteeing NADA rooms on their new date. The Hilton is to be their convention headquarters. Another hotel, the Fairmont, has told NADA they will have rooms available, but not the space needed for convention functions.
New Orleans mayor Marc Morial said Monday the switch was "99 percent certain."
But NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said the had not been
completed. "We've asked them to get back to us and we haven't heard yet," he said.
NADA wanted the NFL to cover its multimillion-dollar expenses and losses of shifting its convention.
The Super Bowl had been scheduled for New Orleans on Jan. 27, but the NFL wants to delay the playoffs a week because of the week it took off after the Sept. 11 attacks in New York and Washington. Its other alternatives are playing Feb. 3 in another city or condensing the playoff schedule to have teams play as many as three games in 10 days.
"I'm 99 percent certain that the Super Bowl will stay in New Orleans," Morial said. "There are still details that are to be worked out, but my feeling is very good about this situation."
Tyson prepares for coming fight
Former champ arrives in Copenhagen for first bout of year
The Associated Press
COPENHAGEN, Denmark Mike Tyson arrived Monday in Copenhagen, where he will fight Denmark's Brian Nielsen this month in a bout regarded as a major step toward Tyson getting another shot at the heavyweight title.
"If he wins, he'll meet the winner of fight between Hasim Rahman and Lennox Lewis," Tyson manager Shelly Finkel said. "That's for sure."
The fight on Oct. 13 against the 36-year-old Nielsen (62-1, 43 knockouts) will be the first in nearly a year for Tyson, who last fought Oct. 20, 2000 against Andrew Golota.
That fight at Auburn Hills, Mich., was ruled a no-contest after Golota quit in the second round.
The Rahman-Lewis fight is set for Nov. 17. Rahman became the WBC and IBF heavyweight champion when he stopped Lewis on April 22 in South Africa.
Wearing a lambskin coat and a wool hat, Tyson and his entourage plowed through reporters, photographers, television crews and autograph seekers.
no-contests, 42 knockouts) declined comment, saying only that the 14-hour flight from Las Vegas via Washington was "nice."
Initially scheduled for Sept. 8, the fight against Nielsen was pushed back five weeks because Tyson had back spasms that kept him from properly preparing. Finkel said Tyson was in "great shape" before leaving for Copenhagen.
Last week, police searched Mike Tyson's home in Las Vegas, where he was training, after a sexual assault allegation was made against him, the second in less than three months. No charges have been filed against Tyson.

FOOTBALL Missouri picks Farmer for spot as starting quarterback
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri quarterback Kirk Farm will start for the second time this season Saturday at Oklahoma State, Tiger coach Gary Pinkel said Monday.
Farmer continues to take the place of Darius Outlaw, who started the first two games for Missouri (1-3) while Farmer recovered from a preseason hand injury suffered in an off-field incident.
This is the first time this season that Pinkel, with a choice between two healthy options, has announced the starter early in the week. Last week, Pinkel didn't say until shortly before kickoff that Farmer would start against No. 4 Nebraska.
Missouri lost that game 36-3, with Outlaw playing just one series at quarterback. Farmer, who also suffered a sprained knee against Southwest Texas State on Sept. 8, completed 15-of-39 passes for 128 yards against the Huskers.
"He has to play." Pinkel said. "He's missed so much that he just has to play. He made some great throws the other day. His decision-making, his ability to manage that game and he's a great athlete — those all contributed to the decision."
Pinkel said Farmer's recovery from the knee injury is progressing faster than anticipated by team doctors.
"I think he got fatigued a little bit toward the end of the game," Pinkel said. "Every day now it heals more and think his wind will come back and he'll be 100 percent by Saturday."
Farmer said he preferred to know what his starting role will be before facing Oklahoma State (2-2) at 7 p.m. Satur day in Stillwater, Okla.
"It's better to establish the rapport with your teammates so they know how its going to be that week in the game," Farmer said.

Kansas to face rival with distraction of a loud Wildecat crowd

The Kansas volleyball team will travel to face its in-state rival at 7 tonight at Ahearn Field House in Manhattan. The Jayhawks (11-3, 2-3) face a Kansas State team (7-4, 3-2) that just slipped into the American Volleyball Coaches Association Top 25 Poll at No. 25.
"Kansas State beat Missouri last week in five in a great match," said Kansas coach Ray Bechard. "So I told our team they can expect the same type of effort on their home court.
"We've just got to find a really consistent high level to play at." Bechard said. "That's a lot to ask a young team, but that's what we have to do to have success throughout the next couple of weeks."
Three of the Wildcats' four losses have come at the hands of Top 10, nationally ranked teams. They started the season with losses to No. 5 Hawaii and No. 7 UCLA and fell to No. 2 Nebraska on Monday. The Wildcats were also defeated by Texas Tech.
Overall, the Wildcats lead the series with the Jayhawks, 43-31. Kansas State has defeated Kansas in each of the 12 matches they have played since 1993. Senior outside hitter Liz Wegner leads the Wildcats and the Big 12 Conference in total kills with 220.
Wegner became Kansas State's all-time kills leader Wednesday against Missouri with 26 kills against Missouri.
Wegner also is in second place on the Wildcat's roster with a 25.1 percent hitting efficiency and third with 128 digs.
"She's very durable," Bechard said. "She'll be as strong in game five as she is in game one. It'll be a matter of us not being able to shut
her down, but hopefully controlling her somewhat."
Bechard will face one of his former assistant coaches in Kansas State's first-year coach Suzie Fritz. Fritz spent two years as an assistant coach to Bechard at Barton County Community College. Fritz also played two years under Bechard at Barton County from 1990-91.
"I was hoping she'd do well in all but two matches this year," Bechard said. "This is one of those two."
Bechard said Fritz would likely be successful as Kansas State's coach.
"I think she's ready for the
opportunity there. She's done a great job as an assistant, and now she's got them off to a good start," Bechard said.
The Kansas State crowd is raucous and can cause visiting teams a problem.
"Actually it kind of fires our team up," Kansas junior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft said. "They're definitely really loud and they get in our faces and kind of make fun of us a little bit. Our bench tries to cheer for us while we're serving. They try to drown them out and let us hear positive things."

Wide receiver Harrison Hill received a boost of confidence Monday when he learned his shoulder was healing properly and the senior could likely return to action in three to five weeks.
Hill, who is still contemplating an appeal for a sixth year of eligibility, said the time frame

Golf: Wind gives teams trouble
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Yesterday winds picked up and wreaked havoc on the players at the Karsten Creek Golf Course. The third round average scores rose to 83.28, more than 10 shots over par.
The average round for Monday's two rounds was just over 80 on the par-72 course.
"It was a tough day out there not just for the Jayhawks but for everybody," coach Nicole Hollingsworth said.
The next closest competitor was Christie Cano of Oklahoma State, who finished the tournament seven over par after her round of 77 yesterday.
The powerful gusts didn't seem to affect Oklahoma State. The Cowgirls finished ahead of second-place Ohio State by an astounding 15 shots.
Just as Oklahoma State ran away with the team title, Tula's Stacy Prammansudh gained first place honors after she shot a two-under-par 70 and finished the tournament at three under par.
Kansas returns to action on Monday and Tuesday at the Women's Collegiate Shootout in Franklin, Ind.
Meanwhile, hours away in Manhattan, senior golf casey
"We'll take the experience we got from this tourney and use it to get ready for the Legends Golf Course at Indiana," Hollingsworth said.
"We'll take the experience we got from this tourney and use it to get ready for the Legends Golf Course at Indiana." Nicole Hollingsworth Women's golf head coach
Harbour was concerned that Kansas had a lot to lose and not much to win in the two-day tournament. As the layhawks limped home from Manhattan yesterday afternoon, Harbour's worst fears had been realized as Kansas slumped to a fifth-place finish in the nine-tie tournament.
After trailing first place Kansas State by a mere six shots after Monday's 36 holes, the Jayhawks struggled mightily on the Colbert Hills Golf Course yesterday as the prairie winds kicked up around the course.
"It was a difficult course and we were really not ready for the conditions," coach Ross Randall said. "We made horrible mistakes and could not adjust."
One of the bright spots for Kansas was senior Travis Hurst. Hurst fired a closing 76 yesterday to finish in fourth place for the tournament. Hurst's fourth place
finish was the sixth top 10 finish of his career.
Redshirt freshman Andrew Price finished with a 79 for a tie in 13th place. Junior Chris Marshall carded an 80 to finish in a tie for 18th place.
Also competing for the Jayhawks were Harbour and sophomore Tyler Hall. Hall finished in a tie for 43rd after yesterday's 83. Harbour endured one of his worst performances of his collegiate career after his final-round 86 which saw him stand alone in 48th.
Lawrence native Ryan Morgan, playing for Rice University, hung on to the lead he garnered in the tournament after Monday's first two rounds. Morgan won the tournament with an even-par total of 216.
The Rice squad finished the tournament in third place, three shots behind second-place Lamar.
Randall was not pleased with the play of his team, but he realized that the Jayhawks must regroup as they cross the state border to compete in the Purina-Missouri Bluffs Classic in St. Charles, Mo., Monday and Tuesday.
"We will face all of these teams in next week's tournament and hopefully we will fare better," Randall said.

Improved Simms to meet Sooners
The Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — Texas quarterback Chris Simms didn't get in the game against Oklahoma last year until the score was already 28-0.
His third pass was intercepted by linebacker Rocky Calmus and returned 41 yards for yet another touchdown, putting the Sooners ahead 35-0 as they stomped their way to a 63-14 victory.
"I added to the butt-kicking," Simms said.
He can make little jokes about it now as No. 5 Texas (4-0, 1-0 Big 12) prepares to meet No. 3 Oklahoma (4-0, 1-0) again Saturday. None of it seemed very funny then.
"We were just in shock. We didn't know what to think, what to say, didn't even know what happened," Simms said.
"It was unbelievable. It was so out of my control, just sitting there watching the game," Simms recalled. "We couldn't stop 'em, and we couldn't get anything going."
He went in the game thinking. "OK, we'll just go down there and get a little drive going." And then he threw the interception when Calmus fooled him into throwing the wrong way.
"He schooled me. He really did," Simms said.
Simms has learned a lot since then. And the critics who believe Major Applewhite should be the Longhorn*

starter are shrinking in number.
Simms finally got to open things up two
Brown named Simms his starter in the spring, but limited what he could do early this season. Simms spent most of the first two games handing off or throwing short routes to receivers.
weeks ago in a win against Houston. After a few misfires in the first half, he finished with his first 300-yard passing game of the season and tossed three TDs.
He was even better last week in a 42-7 victory over Texas Tech, completing 21 of 26 passes for 224 yards and a touchdown. He also ran for two scores.
Even Oklahoma coaches note how much Simms has improved.
"I think he's 10 times the player he was at this point last year," said Sooners co-defensive coordinator Mike Stoops. "That just comes from playing. You can see the improvement game in and game out."
Simms didn't expect any kind words from the Sooners. He'd been used to hearing much worse.
"Wow! He said that?" Simms said "I'm shocked. That just made my day."
Cyclones threaten 'Huskers
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Three things about Iowa State stand out to Nebraska football coach Frank Solich when he looks at the new and improved Cyclones.
"They're undefeated. They're scoring points and they're stopping people from scoring points. Those three things are pretty big in my thinking." Sollich said yesterday.
Sollich thinks the Cyclones (3-0) may be the best team the fourth-ranked Cornhuskers (5-0) will have faced so far. In past years that might have been a stretch, but this time Iowa State may be better than the 'Huskers' previous opponents.
Only Rice (3-1) and TCU (3-2) have winning records among the 'Huskers' first five opponents, who are a combined 8-10. Nebraska beat Missouri 36-3 on Saturday, when the 'Huskers stalled early and trailed 3-0 at the end of the first quarter.
"That's going to happen from time to time. We'll try to get off to a faster start," Solich said. "Whether or not that will happen or not I don't know. Iowa State will have a lot to say about that."
It's odd to hear Iowa State considered a threat to Nebraska. The 'Huskers are 79-14-2 in the series and have won the last eight, including a 49-27 win last year in Ames.
N hukerio
10KR START
CYCLONES
But Solich said Iowa State had improved steadily under coach Dan McCarney and that they deserved a lot of respect.
The Cyclones, who shut out Baylor 41-0 on Saturday, are 3-0 for the third straight season and are keeping opponents to 9.3 points per game.
"They're playing at the top of their game." Solich said.
They're also facing a Nebraska team that has gotten better each week. The 'Huskers gained 412 rushing yards against Missouri and increased their average to 275 yards per game, second best in the country.
Solich thinks it can get even better if the 'Huskers can get some more consistency from their backfield. Nearly a fourth of the yards against Missouri came on quarterback Eric Crouch's 95-yard touchdown run.
Although I back Dahrran Diedrick leads the team in touchdowns (seven) and rushing yards (470), he has not shown breakaway ability or speed. His longest run of the season is 38 yards.
Big salaries don't assure teams of Stanley Cup win
The Associated Press
The Stanley Cup can't be bought — at least not vet.
Commissioner Gary Bettman wants to keep it that way, despite what he sees as a worrisome trend of increasingly big contracts being given to more players by more teams.
players by more teams.
"I don't understand the Alexei Yashin ($90 million, 10-year) contract. I don't understand going out 10 years. But it's not my team and not my money." Bettman said Monday. "But, while they may have increased the payroll dramatically, it's put them (the Islanders) in the realm of the average payroll."
He added, "Just because you spend money, it doesn't get you the results. There are plenty of teams in the top third (in spending) that don't get exactly what they want. There isn't quite the correlation there is in other sports between what you spend and how your team performs."
The New Jersey Devils won the cup in 2000 with a midlevel payroll, he said. The Colorado
Availance's payroll didn't soar until after they won the cup in June and paid more than $100 million to resign stars Joe Sakic, Rob Blake and Patrick Roy.
NHL
"The bulk of the clubs are trying to operate within their means."
Bettman said on a conference call. "There are a handful of clubs that either have greater means or are operating beyond their means.
"If there's something that is throwing the system out of whack — and it's something we're watching closely — it will be dealt with."
However, any attempt at what Bettman calls "cost containment" won't come until 2004 at the earliest, after the league's labor contract expires.
Bettman said maintaining competitive balance is one of his biggest concerns.
"I am focused on the disparity that appears to be developing and, long term, that can be a troublesome trend," he said. "If the trend continues, it will be something we have to address. In the short term, it has not yet led to a competitive imbalance; four of six Canadian clubs made the playoffs last year despite the currency issues they have to deal with."
With the NHL set to begin its new season today, Bettman also said:
—Defenseman Bryan Berard, nearly blinded when struck by a stick almost two years ago, can play for the New York Rangers because he now meets the NHL's minimum vision standards.
- For the first time in three years, the NHL will start a season without a team in serious financial straits - such as two years ago, when the Penguins were in bankruptcy - and with most of its stars under contract.
The NHL All-Star game won't conflict with the Super Bowl, even if the NFL moves its championship game to Sunday, Feb. 3. Unlike the past couple of years, when the NHL All-Star game was played on Sunday, the game is set for Saturday, Feb. 2 in Los Angeles.
"We think this will be a great weekend for TV," he said. "If the NFL does it, so much the better."

King of twist wants more recognition
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Chubby Checker says the music industry has left him twisting in the wind.
The king of "The Twist" took out a full-page advertisement in Billboard magazine, arguing that he's one of rock 'n' roll's most important figures — and one of its most underappreciated.
In an open letter to the entertainment industry, Checker demanded a statue of himself alone in the courtyard of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland. If he doesn't get one, he said he'll refuse induction into the hall, although he's not yet been voted in.
"I want my flowers while I'm alive. I can't smell them when I'm dead," Checker wrote. "I will not have the music business ignore my position in the industry."
Checker told The Associated Press he'd been slighted by a music industry that does not rec
Checker, who turns 60 today, came out with "The Twist" — a cover of the song by Hank Ballard and the Midnighters — on "The Dick Clark Saturday Night Show" in August 1960. He topped the charts the following month, and again in 1962. He hit the Top 40 again with a rap version of "The Twist" in 1988.
ognize — or want to recognize — his contribution to popular music.
People are still twisting, though mainly at wedding receptions that feature other faded dance crazes like the macarena and the electric slide. That doesn't matter to Checker, who said he invented "dancing apart to the beat." His letter even makes the case for a Nobel Prize.
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame — which will announce its newest inductees in December — said it would be unfair to give Checker his own statue. There is a wide variety of opinion about what constitutes the watershed moments of rock, he said.
"You booie with your girlfriend, and you never stop to think where it comes from," he said. "Here I am with my big mouth to tell you."
Terry Stewart, president of the
"The idea that we could elevate one individual with a statue out front would suggest I would have to do likewise for all the rest of the people in the pantheon," Stewart said. "It's just not a reasonable request."
Checker did not originate solo dancing, although he was an important innovator, according to Chrystelle Trump Bond, who heads Goucher College's dance department.
The dance form evolved over many decades, taking root in the 1920s with dances such as the Charleston and the black bottom, she said.

Devil Rays rout Boston Red Sox
The Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Paul Wilson allowed two runs during seven innings as the Tampa Bay Devil Rays routed the Boston Red Sox again, 10-3 last night.
Wilson (8-9), who twice worked out of bases loaded jams, has won six of eight decisions since rejoining the rotation in late July. He allowed 11 hits.

RED SOX
The Devil Rays (59-98), winners of seven of nine, also beat the Red Sox 10-3 Monday. Tampa Bay is trying to become the first AL team to lose 100 games since the 1996 Detroit Tigers (53-109).
The Red Sox (77-79) fell two
games under .500 for the first time since Apr. 9, 2000. Boston has dropped nine of 11 and have just six wins over the past 29 games.
Tampa Bay scored four times off Casey Fossum (3-2) in the first inning.
Ben Grieve had an RBI double.
Randy Winn made it 2-0 on a fielder's choice. After Toby Hall scored on a balk, Jose Guillen completed the rally with a run-scoring double.
Fossum, who gave up six runs and eight hits in four innings, was scheduled to leave the team after the game to be with his pregnant wife. Red Sox manager Joe Kerrigan said doctors planned to induce labor today.
Brent Abernathy hit a runscoring triple and Steve Cox added a sacrifice fly that put Tampa Bay up 6-0 after two innings.
The Devil Rays went up 7-0 in
The Red Sox finally scored on their third bases loaded opportunity when Brian Daubach hit a two-run double in the seventh. Daubach has eight RBIs during an eight-game hitting streak.
the fifth when Chris Gomez scored on Willie Banks wild pitch.
Tampa Bay took a 10-2 lead in the bottom of the inning. Abernathy scored with two outs when left fielder Izzy Alcantara dropped Grieve's fly, Hall had an RBI double and Cox added a run-scoring single.
Notes:
Fossum hit three batters, giving Boston a major league-high 93
Tampa Bay has a double in 40 straight games. It's the third longest streak during the past five years.
Boston LF Darren Lewis got his 1000th career hit with a first-inning single.
NEW YORK — Derek Jeter and Jorge Posada each homered and drove in two runs last night as the New York Yankees moved closer to wrapping up home-field advantage in the first round of the playoffs with a 6-4 win against the Chicago White Sox
Yankees beat White Sox 6-4
The Associated Press
The Yankees, who have clinched the AL East, started the day 3/12 games ahead of Central winner Cleveland in the race to open the postseason at home.
Yamfrees
If New York stays ahead of
Sx
the Indians, it would start the playoffs against Oakland on Oct. 10 at Yankee Stadium.
Ted Lilly (5-6), making his
first start since Aug.18, allowed four runs and six hits in six innings to get his first win as a starter since July 5 at Baltimore.
Lilly, who pitched 7 2-3 innings of relief last Friday to get the win against the Orioles, had won only once in his previous 14 starts.
Mariano Rivera struck out the side in the ninth for his 48th save in 55 chances. It was his first outing since he had a cortisone shot in his right ankle Saturday.
Magglio Ordonez went 3-for 4 with two RBIs for the White Sox, who lost for the second straight game and dropped into third place in the AL Central.
It was another sparse crowd in the makeup games for the series postponed by the terrorist attacks last month. One night after drawing 8,112 fans
— the smallest Yankee Stadium crowd in more than seven years — New York got 10,480.
After the White Sox took a 10 lead in the first on Paul Konerko's sacrifice fly, the Yankees scored twice in their half. Chuck Knoblauch drew a lead-off walk from Dan Wright (5-3) and Jeter followed with his 21st homer.
Ray Durham hit an RBI triple and scored on a groundout for the White Sox in the third before Posada tied it with his 22nd homer in the fourth. Posada had missed the previous five games to serve a suspension for his run-in with an ampire.
Alfonso Soriano added a sacrifice fv in the eighth.

Sosa sets records; Cubs topple
CHICAGO — Sammy Sosa became the first player in major league history with three 60-homer seasons, but it wasn't enough to keep the Chicago Cubs from being eliminated from post-season contention.
The Associated Press
A d a m Dunn hit a solo homer off Kyle Farnsworth in the top of the ninth, giving the Cincinnati Redsa 5-4 victory against the Cubs last night. Dmitri
REDS
CUBS
Young and D.T. Cromer also homed for the Reds.
The loss, along with St. Louis' 5-1 victory against Milwaukee, eliminated the Cubs from the NL wild card race. The Cubs are six games behind St. Louis with only five games left.
While Barry Bonds chases Mark McGwire's record of 70 home runs, Sosa remains amazingly consistent. He reached 60 yesterday with a solo shot in the first off Reds left-hander Lance
Davis, an arching shot to left center that almost went out of the park.
The fans let out a roar when they saw the ball leave his bat, knowing it was gone. The message board on the scoreboard flashed "Sammy Hits 60 Again!" and the fans continued clapping until Sosa came out for a curtain call.
He stood at the top steps of the dugout and waved his helmet at the fans.
Sosa is one of only five players to hit 60 homers, and the only one to do it three times. He hit 66 homers in 1998, when McGwire set the single-season record and followed that with 63 in 1999.
The homer also gave him 150RBIs, only the seventh time aplayer has hit 50 homers and had 150 RBIs. Sosa, who did it in 1998, is the only player to have done it since World War II.
Babe Ruth and Jimmie Foxx reached 50 homers and 150RBIs twice. Hack Wilson did it once.
The Cubs needed more than Sosa, though. Rookie Juan Cruz allowed only four hits in the first five innings - including
Cromer's homer in the third. But the Reds got to him in the sixth inning.
Walker scored on Griffey's groundout, and Young sent the first pitch he saw into the centerfield stands for a two-run homer that tied the game.
After Todd Walker singled, Wilton Guerrero hit a chopper to left that Rondell White bobbled. Walker reached third on the error, and Guerrero went to second.
The Reds struck again in the ninth. With two outs, Dunn sent Farnsworth's 1-0 pitch over the wall in right-center and out of the park.
Farnsworth (4-6) gave up one run and two hits in one inning.
Scott Sullivan (7-1) pitched two scoreless innings, walking one and striking out four. Danny Graves pitched the ninth for his 32 save, allowing only one hit.
Notes: The homer also gave Sosa 98 extra-base hits, breaking Hack Wilson's club record set in 1930. ... Local firefighters joined Wayne Messmer for "God Bless America" during the seventh-inning stretch, and fans applauded them as they walked through the upper concourse afterward.
Cardinals win 5-1 against Brewers
The Associated Press
MILWAUKEE — Albert Pujols went 3-for-4 and set the National League rookie record with 353 total bases as the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Milwaukee Brewers 5-1 yesterday night.
Fernando Vina hit the first insidethe park homer at Miller Park and Darryl Kile (16-10) scattered three singles in five innings.
Carolina
Cardinals
St. Louis, which began the day one
game behind Houston in the NL Central, has won 20 of 25. The Cardinals haven't been in first place since May 28.
The Cardinals, who went 17-5 last month, won their sixth consecutive game overall and their seventh straight against the Brewers, whose 23-48 record since the All-Star break is the exact opposite of the Cardinals' mark.
Milwaukee, completing its ninth straight losing season, lost track of the outs in the third and stayed on the field following Placido Polanco's inning-ending double play.
The infelders threw the ball around the diamond and the outfielders stood in place before they realized it was their turn to bat.
kictie Sexson's ninth-inning homer, his 41st, drove in the only run for Milwaukee, which had four hits.
Pujols singled in the first and scored on Edgar Renteria's sacrifice fly, then doubled in the fourth to tie the rookie total-base record of 352, set by Philadelphia's Richie Allen in 1964. Jim Edmonds drove in Pujols with a single for a 2-0 lead.
Pujols singled in the sixth to set the record before Edmonds' tworun homer off Ben Sheets (10-10). In the ninth, Pujols flied out to the deepest part of the park, center field.
With one out in the fifth, Vina hit an opposite-field liner just out of the reach of diving left fielder Geoff Jenkins. Center fielder Devon White didn't move until the ball skipped past Jenkins, and when it rolled to the wall, Vina scored standing up with his second career inside-the-park home run.
Vina's homer was his career-high eighth.
Sheets, the Brewers' lone AllStar, lost his sixth straight decision. He hasn't won since June 29, a span of nine starts. He surrendered five earned runs and 11 hits in 6 2-3 innings and was replaced by Ray King with the bases loaded in the seventh. King got Edmonds on a fly to the warning track.

Class to help make sense of attack's aftermath
By Ryan Malashock Kansan staff writer
There are numerous reasons why students might be confused about the aftermath of the Sep. 11 terrorist attacks.
One professor, Tony Rosenthal hopes to help students understand the confusing situation.
Through a free class, "The Course of the Crisis," Rosenthal, associate professor of history and sociology, will incorporate fellow faculty members and community leaders to inform students about the attack aftermath.
The course is being put on by the Center for Teaching Excellence and begins at 7 p.m. Oct. 9 in 2092 Dole.
The class will run every Tuesday night through the end of the semester.
If interest persists, the non-credit class will continue into next semester.
"My sense was that people were holding a lot of one-time only panels," Rosenthal said. "But for a crisis of long duration it will be more usful to have a permanent forum."
He said the class would have a team-teaching format.
Several different speakers will be brought in to discuss topics ranging from the history of Islam to the relationship between popular culture and war.
Jeff Aube, interim director at the Center for Teacher Excellence, said the student response for the class has been steady.
"We've had 40 people already sign up, and we just started getting calls from students on Monday," Aube said. "Hopefully, we'll fill up the class — there's 110 spots in the room."
The course also is unique because it will be the first class ever put on by the Center for Teacher Excellence.
The center typically puts on workshops and seminars for faculty members and graduate students.
"It's a new venture for CTE," Rosenthal said. "It's the first thing they've done which involves sustained teaching over weeks. I know CTE's definitely excited."
Students interested in the course should call the Center for Teacher Excellence at 864-4199 or visit the center's Web site at http://www.ku.edu/home/cte.

Sigma Chistruck by theft
Within hours, items valued at more than $11,000 stolen from fraternity
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Numerous items valued at $11,238 were stolen from the Sigma Chl house. 1439 Tennessee St., between 10 p.m. Saturday and 1:30 a.m. Sunday.
As of 5 p.m. yesterday, four people in separate rooms of the house had reported thefts. The missing items include five computers, two lock boxes, numerous textbooks, backpacks and checks.
Ryan Dodd, Overland Park junior and a victim of the thefts, said the fraternity's initiation formal was that night at the Eagles Lodge, 1803 W. Sixth St.
"Only a few people were in the house," he said. "But they were in their rooms."
Sgt. Mike Patrick of the Lawrence Police Department said he thought the four incidents were related because each room that was hit was on the same wing of the same floor, and each incident was reported to have occurred in the same time period.
"It is easier for someone to get a lot from a place like a fraternity house," he said. "You can get a lot of stuff in one place, instead of having to go to several places."
Patrick said police had no suspects
and there was no sign of forced entry.
Dodd said the back door of the fraternity house was propped open that night because some members of the fraternity were on the back porch at one point. The suspect may have entered through that door.
Dodd said no one in the house had any idea who the thief was, but the thefts were on the minds of everyone.
"You think about it and about who would have had the guts to go in and do that," he said.
Dodd said it was hard to say exactly what happened and how much was taken. He said other rooms might have been hit and the items hadn't been reported stolen yet because students didn't realize they were missing.
Tips to protect valuables:
Lock all doors at all times.
■ Keep expensive items locked up or out of sight
- Engrave anything valuable with a name or initials.
Keep a list of serial numbers of all valuable items.

Drive draws both blood and protests
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
Amanda Eberley cannot donate blood, and it angers her that the men who paid to have sex with her can.
Eberley was turned away from the American Red Cross and the Community Blood Center joint blood drive yesterday at the Kansas Union Ballroom because she previously was a prostitute.
"But they'll let people who've slept with me donate after a year," she said.
Eberliey, Lawrence sophomore, protested the blood drive with other members of KU Queers and Allies. Students stood outside the Union and its ballroom with signs while wearing biohazard stickers on their arms.
Some of the protesters applied to donate blood, but they were refused.
Representatives from the American Red Cross and the Community Blood Center confirmed that anyone who worked as a prostitute since 1977 would be prohibited from donating blood for the rest of that person's life, as required by FDA policy.
The Queers and Allies organization objects to that policy, which also disqualifies any male with a homosexual experience since 1977 and women who've had sex with men who have a homosexual past.
Erik Wilhelmi, Shawnee freshman, yesterday received a letter from a Red Cross nurse that said he was permanently prohibited from donating blood. A questionairre distributed to all potential blood donors asked whether men
had engaged in homosexual sex, to which Wilhelmi indicated yes.
"I expected to be turned away." Wilhelmi said. He also said both he and his boyfriend had tested negative for HIV within the last six months.
"I don't feel I'm any risk of transmitting HIV," Wilhelmi said. "They test our blood anyway."
Tara Wolfe, Lawrence senior and treasurer of Queers and Allies, estimated that some 15 organization members were not allowed to donate at the blood drive.
A representative from the Red Cross said 25 students were rejected yesterday, although reasons for denials ranged from low iron in the blood to taking antibiotics. Sixteen students were prohibited from giving blood on both Monday and Tuesday.
The Community Blood Center did not know how many people were turned down yesterday.
Representatives from both organizations said the protest had little effect on the amount of traffic at the blood drive.
"Today has been the highest traffic day so far," said Chris Beurman, director of donor recruitment for the Community Blood Center.
Betsy Wintroth, Leavenworth freshman, said the protesters angered her.
"I thought it was disgusting," Winetroub said. "This is for a really good cause, but to bash people for trying to help out, I don't understand."
Beurman said there were no disturbances during the Queers and Allies protest. Contact Smith at 864-4810
AUTHOR OF THE BOOK "THE LEGEND OF WOODBURY"
Elizabeth Schultz, professor emerita of English, points to where graduate student Cornelius Minor, Atlanta graduate student, is to begin his 20-minute stint of reading during yesterday's presentation of Herman Melville's *Moby Dick* in front of Wescoe Hall. The reading marked the 150th anniversary of the novel.
'Mobv Dick' reading wails through night
By Adam Pracht Special to the Kansan
"Call me Ishmael," said Haskell Springer, professor of English, as he began the 24-hour marathon reading of Herman Melville's *Moby Dick* yesterday morning in front of Wescoe Hall.
Seventy readers, including students, faculty and people from the Lawrence community, each read for 20 minutes during the marathon.
The University of Kansas department of English sponsored the event, which ended this morning at 8 a.m.
The reading marked the 150th anniversary of the classic novel's publication.
which lasted into the night.
"There will be celebrations across the country in the month of October, from New York to San Francisco, and I thought that we needed to do something in the heartland," said Elizabeth Schultz, professor emerita of English.
Schultz said she organized a similar event in 1991 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Melville's death.
"I feel that this is America's greatest novel," Schultz said. "I think it's appropriate to find occasions when we can, as a community, think about this novel."
The story of Moby Dick is told from the perspective of a character named Ishmael, who tells of
the quest for revenge that Captain Ahab takes to kill the great white whale that took his leg.
"Just as The Odyssey is the great epic of the Greeks, this is the great epic of the United States," Springer said.
During the marathon reading, Patrick Bollig, Topeka junior, and Brigitte Bernagozzi, Oakdale, N.Y., graduate student, shared a yellowed hardcover copy of Moby Dick.
They had followed the reading since it began at 8 a.m. yesterday, leaving only to attend classes.
"I've always heard that it's a monumental work," Bollig said, "Since I'm lazy I decided not to pass up the opportunity to have it read to me."
Bernagozzi, an English major, said she was pleased to see that the event was introducing people to the novel.
Schultz sad that the novel was particularly relevant in light of the Sept. 11 attacks.
INSIDETODAY
"It is about a fanatic terrorist attack on a great force of life," Schultz said. "Perhaps more importantly, it's about how a survivor of that attack tried to understand why it happened and how he can live a better life in the wake of that attack."

Students to build hut in honor of traditional Jewish holiday
The KU Hillel House is co-sponsoring the construction of a traditional Jewish hut today, called a "sukkah," in celebration of the Jewish holiday Sukkot.
Sukkot commemorates the 40 years the Israelites wandered the desert in Biblical times and lived in temporary huts, said Andrew Zidel, Minneapolis, Minn., senior and Jewish campus service corp fellow for Hillel.
He said Sukkot literally meant "Feast of Booths," which referred to the sukkah tents.
The traditional hut will be built from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on the Stauffer Flint lawn.

Governor's dismissal joke caught on microphone
The Associated Press
BOSTON — Acting Gov. Jane Swift joked about firing staff members following a televised speech in which she announced the reassignment of Logan International Airport's security chief.
She said she hoped her microphone was turned off. But it was on, and the remark Tuesday was recorded by TV and radio crews.
When staff members applauded Swift after a speech, she said, "They work for me and they know I'm in a firing mood." She then said, "Just kidding. I hope my mike wasn't on."
In the speech, she announced State Police Superintendent Col. John DiFava would replace Joe Lawless as security chief at the airport. Lawless was reassigned to oversee security at the Port of Boston.
Lawless had faced increasing pressure since the hiljackings of the jetliners that crashed into the
World Trade Center. Both of those jets had taken off from Boston.
Even after the hijackings, there have been reports of security breaches at Logan.
James Borghesani, Swift's spokesman, said yesterday no one was offered by her comment.
yesterday no one was offended by her comment. "It was all joke stuff, it was nothing," Borghesani said.
Politicians' past live-mike gaffes include then-Gov. George W. Bush's use of an obscenity to describe a New York Times reporter during the campaign last year.
Swift, who at 36 is the nation's youngest governor, was also heard asking:"Did I start squinting? I really tried hard not to." Then she asked, "A little fast?"
An unidentified person reassured her, saying, "Your eyes were perfect; your expressions were perfect."
Six killed in Greyhound crash
The Associated Press
MANCHESTER, Tenn. — A passenger on a Greyhound bus cut the driver's throat yesterday, causing a crash that killed six of the 40 people aboard and prompted Greyhound to temporarily halt service nationwide.
The crash happened on Interstate 24 near Manchester, 50 miles southeast of Nashville.
The driver was treated for a cut to his neck and was stable after surgery, a hospital official said.
Coffee County Medical Examiner Dr. Al Brandon said the weapon was a "sharp instrument similar to a razor blade."
Six people died at the scene, and the 34 others on board were injured, said Dana Keeton, a Tennessee Department of Safety representative.
"He just went up to the bus driver and, like, slit his throat, and the driver turned the wheel and the bus tipped over," passenger Carly Rinearson told Nashville TV station WTVF by
cell phone from the crash site.
carphone.
Rinearson told WTVF the attacker, who appeared to be 30 to 35 years old, kept approaching her front seat and asking what time it was. She said the man then asked if he could have her seat, and she refused.
He then attacked the driver, she said.
The attacker, who had a Croatian passport, was killed, the FBI said.
After the 5:15 a.m. crash, Greyhound pulled the 2,000 to 2,500 buses operating at the time off the nation's highways, but after consulting with investigators and transportation officials, Greyhound decided it was safe to resume service as of 1 p.m.
"The officials have assured me that they believe this tragic accident was the result of an isolated act by a single deranged individual." Greyhound president and CEO Craig Lentzsch told reporters in Washington, D.C.
Gregory Hines will perform two tap shows in Kansas
STATE
TOPEKA — Tap dancer and Emmy Award nominee Gregory Hines finds the time right to share his art, so he's going ahead with two shows in Kansas this week.
Hines is to perform tonight at the Topeka Performing Arts Center and Friday night at the Carlsen Center on the campus of Johnson County Community College in Overland Park.
Hines has been flying in the weeks since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and said he has been calm among his fellow airline passengers. On one flight, the pilot suggested to passengers that they introduce themselves to one another "and connect a little bit, which was nice," he said.
From Kansas, Hines will return to Los Angeles for Sunday night's Emmy Awards show, in which he is nominated as outstanding lead actor in a miniseries or movie for the title role of Bojangles. It took Hines 12 years to get the Showtime film made about the life and career of tap dancer and entertainer Bill "Bojangles" Robinson.

Terry Reed, 38, was arrested after voting in Tuesday's primary. He said he would plead innocent to a fifth-degree felony charge of unauthorized use of property.
Incumbent Dona Brady finished first in the primary with 3,021 votes, and will face Reed, who got 318 votes, in a runoff election Nov. 6. Both are Democrats.
Reed said his arrest was politically motivated. "You go against the established politicians in this town and this is what happens," he said.
He was fired in August because he filed papers as a candidate and was still a city employee, said Della Homenik, spokeswoman for Mayor Michael R. White. City employees are not allowed to run for city offices.

Man accuses police of misconduct
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
A 25-year-old Lawrence resident said he had filed a formal complaint with the Lawrence Police Department yesterday after a confrontation with a police officer Saturday morning.
Asa Collier was arrested Saturday on charges of inference with police duties, disorderly conduct and criminal damage after it was reported that he struck an unmarked police van.
Collier said he and about 10 friends were walking in the crosswalk at the corner of Massachusetts and 10th streets about 2:10 a.m., after leaving the Replay Lounge. 946 Massachusetts St.
He said as the group was walking through the intersection, a van was slowly inching
toward them.
Collier said he made eye contact with the driver. He said he gave the driver a dirty look but "never touched the car."
It turns out that the van was an unmarked police vehicle driven by a plainclothes officer.
The police report filed by the officer claims Collier placed his hand on the vehicle and did not remove it when asked to do so.
Collier said the vehicle rounded the corner onto 10th Street and the officer exited the vehicle. He said the officer told him he had picked the wrong guy to mess with.
The police report stated that the officer left the vehicle after Collier taunted the officer and stood in a fighting stance.
"At first, I thought it was just a person in a bad mood trying to get in a fight," Collier said.
Then the officer identified himself and approached Collier with handcuffs.
The police report stated Collier kicked the police car as he was being cuffed, causing $499 to the vehicle.
"I didn't resist arrest," Collier said. "He threw me against the car and that's where the criminal damage came from."
Collier has hired a lawyer, who did not return phone calls yesterday.
Collier goes to court for an arraignment Nov. 1. If he is found guilty of the charges, he will have to pay the $499 in criminal damage.
Sgt. Mike Pattrick of the Lawrence Police Department said that the Internal Affairs Department handled all complaints against officers or the department.
"I didn't resist arrest. He threw me against the car and that's where the criminal damage came from."
"If anybody felt they received poor service or were wronged by a police officer, they need to contact the internal affairs department," he said.
The Internal Affairs Department would not comment on the complaint.

KU Info answers the bizarre to ordinary
At KU we have a service unique to us: an information clearinghouse that can answer any question you may have, and for free. When I began working at KU Info last January, I had no idea what was in store, especially not of the admiration and respect for me and my co-workers.
It is not the case for most jobs that folks respond "Oh, cool!" when you answer them as to where you work.
Commentary
We, the staff of KU Info, have an elusive respect granted to us. We are the mysterious ones on the other end of the phone. After discovering where I work, the question that immediately follows, every time, inquires as to all those questions asked.
Some are simple questions where the answer assists the caller: the location of a building, the course number for a class, the time of a Lied Center production or a departmental phone number.
Others are community related, such as directions to the DMV, hours of the Lawrence Farmers Market or a certain

night's drink specials throughout town We also keep record of available babysitters and match them with parents needing child care, field crisis calls and forward them to Headquarters, and settle a lot of bets.
I think my favorite moments at KU Info come with providing a life-saving answer to that killer question that has stumped everyone in the room. How many other people get told several times a day how much they rock? Sports trivia, rules of a game, how long a certain drug stays in your system, what night the Friends premiere will air on, directions

But the number of these calls has dwindled, I must admit, as something about late nights provokes them and like everyone else at KU, KU Info suffered budget cuts and had to cut hours.
Now open from 8 a.m. to midnight, hundreds of questions are still answered each day, and on some days we break a thousand.
But the 1:30 a.m. days are over, and older folks have noticed the dwindled hours since their freshman days. Of course, one could argue the true purpose of KU Info and how 12 hours of the day is still pretty good for any question, free of charge. And I have to admit, not too many of those late-night calls couldn't wait for morning.

The caller was an American who was traveling and attempting to make instant coffee in his hotel. The instructions were in Japanese, and he couldn't read them, so, of course, he thought to solve the problem by calling KU Info. Talk about money to burn.
"How do you make instant coffee?" he asked, to which I replied, "Add hot water."
"Thanks!" he said, enthusiastically.
Like every question, I try not to judge the caller, but rather be glad I could help.

STRAIGHT SCOUTING
Dear editor.
I am writing in response to the article "Senate supports gay scouting rally," (Sept. 28).
I was deeply disturbed by the content of article. The Boy Scouts of America has a foundation of moral and ethical truth. The moral foundation would be tested and weakened if homosexuals were allowed to participate in boy scouting. As an assistant scoutmaster and an Eagle Scout, I believe that an avowed homosexual is not a role model for the values espoused in Scout Oath and Law.
In the closing line of the Scout Oath, it states, "On my honor I will do my best ... to keep myself . . . morally straight." The Scout Oath and Law are the guiding principles of Boy Scouts. I should note that scouting is a private association that has the right to set membership standards to protect the leadership of its organization.
As a student at the University of Kansas, I question why our Student Senate would promote such a controversial issue without obtaining a true understanding of the principles of scouting. We should understand that it could jeopardize the future of many young men if alternative lifestyles were permitted in such a traditionally conservative organization.
LETTERSTO THE EDITORS
Our nation was founded on the liberties that Americans share today. Should a private organization give up 100 years of freedom? Scouting produces the most focused, the most positive, and the most morally straight young men of this great nation. Should that treasure of America be tarnished?

Dear editor.
While I agree with Chamberlain's commentary on eliminating the dry campus policy, the leadership role that an RA must maintain would be slandered if the University allowed them to "party with their residents." The rules are slightly more tolerable at off-campus housing.
At Naismith Hall, where I am currently employed as an RA, we allow the residents the benefit of the doubt when they are behind closed doors. Privacy is entitled to each and every one of our residents. Despite this difference, our stance remains the same. When an RA's actions are compromised to please a resident and meet social standards, then the integrity of the position is being shot down as well.
I was also offended by the comment about "never being seen" down the hallway. I cannot speak on behalf of all RA's (many also agree), but I do know that I genuinely care about my residents and what happens to them. Thus, I am always there for them. It is inconceivable to imagine that getting drunk would come across as positively reinforcing the role model that I so try to be.
Party problems such as drinking should stay at the same standard as sexual states of affairs between residents and staff — it should not happen. I am not naive enough to say these situations do not occur because they will happen. That does not mean they should be accepted.

TURNING OVER DOCUMENTS
I would like to make a clarifying statement regarding the recent Kansan story regarding the FBI and KU student records (Oct.1).

Throughout the coming weeks, months and years we expect to work with the FBI and other investigative agencies to assist them in obtaining information to which they are legally entitled.
It may have led some readers to think

that we would be less than cooperative in our efforts to assist in the fight against terrorism or that we were not implementing federal law as intended.
Your readership should know of our absolute and unequivocal commitment to assist the FBI or any other federal agency in their investigation of terrorists. In accordance with federal laws, the Office of the University Registrar can provide student records to the FBI or any other authorized agency to assist in their investigations of activity that threatens the health or safety of our people.
We have a long and productive history of working cooperatively and collegially with the FBI and other investigative agencies. For years, FBI officers have routinely visited our office to obtain information in compliance with the Family Educational Records Act, commonly referred to as the Buckley Amendment.
Dear editor.
Partly in response to Diane Godfrey's column on Friday and otherwise in general, I would like to point out a few things.
First, just as she seems disturbed or even offended by the frequent mention of God and religion regarding the recent tragedies, perhaps Christians and others who believe in God would be disturbed or even offended by their omission.
Many people, myself included, suffer from the loss of a loved one due to the terrorist attacks. Perhaps we should put matters such as the origins of "In God We Trust" on U.S. currency and the new-found prominence of the phrase "God

WAR SHOULDN'T BE AN OPTION
All of these are good things, but personal preferences and beliefs dictate the choices made. Our right to make these choices is one of the reasons that people such as those who enforce the Taliban regime hate the U.S. so much.
Bless America" aside and focus on other things — such as mourning our losses, individually and as a nation, in whatever manner suits us best personally.
Dear editor.
Surely we have come further through all of this horror than to continue hagging over details such as religious differences, the importance of which pales in comparison to the magnitude of the tragedy and our greater unity as a country. While it is certainly important to "stick" to one's beliefs and not be swayed, right now I think it is far more important that each of us deal with our feelings as we see fit — be it with prayers for my dear friend on my part, or volunteering or enlisting in the armed services for others.
In response to Robert Chamberlain's column "Professors are wrong, war is an option," his support for military action makes him, like all others calling for war, a hypocrite.
Chamberlain has overlooked a major aspect of war that has a serious bearing on our current situation. You cannot have war without civilian casualties, as former president Bill Clinton admitted.
Chamberlain argues that it is a flawed
Throughout the history of war, civilians have been killed, either directly in combat or indirectly from destruction of vital infrastructure such as water treatment and health care facilities. There has never been a war that did not cause the deaths of civilians.
It is said that this war will be different, that this time we will take extra precaution and only target those directly responsible for the atrocities of Sept. 11, and that civilians will not be killed.
His argument is not supported by historical record. Regardless of our intentions, civilians will be killed by military operations in Afghanistan. This brings us to the hypocrisy involved in supporting such operations.
These are just two examples out of countless tragedies caused by "smart" weaponry. He goes on to say that "Area bombing cities in order to punish the local population has been rejected for decades." He must not have known that the vast majority of weapons dropped in Operation Desert Storm were so-called "dumb bombs" dropped from B-52s to destroy large target areas, which was in violation of the UN charter.
assumption to claim that bombing Afghanistan will result in the deaths of innocent people. This is just plain silly in light of the results that "surgical" bombing had in Iraq and Kosovo. What about the annihilation of the Ameriya bomb shelter in Iraq, leaving over 6,000 civilians dead? Or the Chinese Embassy in Kosovo, hit by a so-called "smart" bomb?
To be appalled by the death of 6,000 American civilians on one hand and ignore or marginalize Afghan civilians who would be killed in our attack is the pinnacle of hypocrisy.
Those who attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon surely regarded the civilian death toll as "collateral damage." What differentiates us from them if we label the possible civilian toll of our intervention in Afghanistan the same?
If we are at all serious that the death of civilians—regardless of race, religion or nationality, is something to be abhorred, then war is the last thing we would consider. If we are serious, we must take any and all avenues other than war in our search for justice. Jingoism in not the answer.

Center gets $7 million grant
Money will aid developmental research

By Eve Lamborn Kansan staff writer
The University's Kansas Mental Retardation and Developmental Disability Research Center received a five-year. $7 million grant to continue research on the causes and treatment of developmental disabilities such as autism and language disorders.
Steven Warren, director of the Schiefelbusch Institute for Lifespan Studies, said the grant, awarded by
the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, spoke highly of the level of research done at the KU institute.
"They believe the work that we do at KU is amongst the best in the U.S." he said.
Warren said the grant was highly competitive and that Johns Hopkins University and Harvard University were among the 13 other institutions to receive the same grant.
"Each time we go for it, it's a tough thing to do," he said.

The KU College Republicans are one step closer to becoming the first partisan group to receive money from Student Senate.
Last night, the Senate Finance and Student Rights committees approved a bill allocating $382 to the group. Senate committees rejected a similar bill two weeks ago. The new bill will go to full Senate for a final vote next week.
The bill is among the first of its kind after Senate changed its regulations last spring to allow Senate funds to be allocated to partisan and religious groups.
The group couldn't get past the Finance Committee at the last meeting two weeks ago because committee members questioned the validity of allocating Senate money to a political group.
Kit Brauer, Association of University Residence Halls senator, said he was opposed to giving money to the group.
"This group has done a pretty negligible job of fund-raising in the past," Brauer said.
He argued that the group could find other
ways to receive money, such as soliciting donations from supporters.
Erin Blocher, chairwoman of the KU College Republicans, said the organization needed the money.
"This is so that we don't keep having to make out-of-pocket expenses for our group," said Blocher. Colorado Springs, Colo., junior.
Branden Bell, holdover senator, said that the bill shouldn't have been brought before the Finance Committee a second time.
"The reasons that we failed it have not changed at all," Bell said. "The fact that they have donor lists suggests to me that they can survive without Senate money."
Adam Obley, Finance Committee chairman, said the KU College Republicans should not have been held to a higher standard than other groups that ask for Senate money.
"Just because they have a donor list doesn't mean we can't fund them," Obley said.
In other business:
A bill was passed by the Finance and Multicultural Affairs committees that allocated $5,000 to pay Brent Scarpo, who has made documentary films about hate crimes and
racism, to speak at the Hate Out Week program.
The Finance and University Affairs committees passed a bill allocating $1,110 to the Pharmacy Fair, sponsored by the Academy of Students of Pharmacy.
The Finance and Multicultural Affairs committees approved a bill giving $2,850 to the KU Cultural India Club.

Swissair grounds flights; travelers stay in bunkers
The Associated Press
GENEVA — About 38,000 people were stranded worldwide and tens of thousands more held worthless tickets yesterday, as Swissair desperately sought the cash for upfront payment of fuel and airport taxes.
At Zurich airport — the worst hit by the chaos — passengers without a flight or hotel faced the prospect of a second straight night in a nuclear bunker.
The crisis came despite a rescue package put together Monday by Swiss banking giants UBS and Credit Suisse after Swissair filed for protection from creditors — a step short of bankruptcy.
The deal was intended to give the airline time to reorganize without being carved up in a bankruptcy court.
However, a cash advance necessary to meet running costs failed to materialize as scheduled Tuesday because UBS chief Marcel Ospel couldn't be contacted to give the necessary approval. Finance Minister Kaspar Villiger was told that Ospel was traveling and couldn't be reached.
"Never in the history of this country has a democratically elected government been so humiliated by a bank manager," said a front-page editorial in Zurich's Tagesanzeiger.
At an emergency session yesterday, the Swiss government agreed to provide a bridging loan of up to $281 million to help Swissair resume its flights today and stay in the air until the end of October.
UBS received at least two bomb threats yesterday and disgusted clients closed accounts.
"the trust in Swiss economy, the trust in the whole of Switzerland."
The government, which belatedly offered to provide a bridging loan, came under criticism itself for doing too little too late.
Some 10,000 demonstrators including top managers of Swissair massed in front of UBS headquarters yesterday in an unprecedented protest against the powerful banks. Uniformed pilots waved banners at Zurich's main railway station and most expensive shopping street.
Scientists find language gene
The Associated Press
Scientists say they have discovered the first gene tied to a language and speech disorder — a find that may bring the genetics revolution closer to identifying the biological roots of conscious thought and defining what it means to be human.
The gene, FOXP2, is not specifically a gene that enables us to talk. Instead, it is responsible for a protein that enables the brain's language circuituity to function.
The researchers say they discovered a mutated form of FOXP2 that is associated with a speech disorder that impairs movement of the mouth, lips and tongue and causes problems such as use of the wrong word tense.
mechanics of cognitive thought, how babies develop into adults and even how humans evolved from lower forms of life.
Some researchers suggest the discovery is a clue into the
Their finding appears in the current issue of the journal Nature.
Researchers from the Oxford team and the Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Unit of the Institute of Child Health in London studied three generations of a large family in England, identified only as the KEs. About half of its 24 members are affected with the speech disorder.
Researchers believe the mutation on FOXP2 causes a breakdown in the gene's ability to regulate other genes.
The researchers reached a breakthrough when they studied a person with the same disorder who was not related to the fam-
The researchers looked for the same mutation in the same place in the KE family, and found it.
ity. The gene in this individual was found to be disrupted by a shift in DNA on chromosome 7.
Steven Pinker of the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology said he does not believe language impairments could be linked to a single gene. Other researchers said it is also premature to conclude from this study whether a gene or genes are solely responsible for language in humans.
"I know everyone would like a nice simple 'Yes, Eureka! We found it,'" said Bruce Tomblin, professor of speech pathology and audiology at the University of Iowa. "But it's not that simple."
Judge rules Reno liable for injuries
The Associated Press
MIAMI — Former Attorney General Janet Reno can be sued by protesters and bystanders injured during the raid to seize Elian Gonzalez from his Miami relatives' home, a federal judge has ruled.
U. S. District Judge K. Michael Moore ruled Tuesday that Reno's position as attorney general did not give her immunity from being sued for the raid, which she ordered.
Fifty-two people sued Reno and two other officials for at least $100 million, claiming federal agents gassed, beat and threatened them during the raid on April 22, 2000.
Moore dismissed the suit against the other federal officials because they had not ordered the raid. He also ruled that five plaintiffs could not sue because they were not injured.
The judge also dismissed allegations of excessive force. He ruled the raid was "neither particularly violent, nor was the number of law enforcement officers disproportionate to the . . . need to maintain order."
Reno, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for governor in Florida, did not immediately return phone calls yesterday seeking comment.
Justice Department attorneys who have been representing Reno in the suit will not comment until they review the ruling, spokesman Charles Miller said.
No trial date has been set.
Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, a conservative legal group representing the plaintiffs, said Reno acted irresponsibly in ordering the raid to return Elian, then 6, to his father in Cuba.
Fitton said that Reno knew bystanders' constitutional rights would be violated and she didn't care.

Running back hoping for break-out performance
Freshman eagerly awaits away game against Texas Tech
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
As a high school senior in Killeen, Texas, Reggie Duncan's stock was sizzling, and Texas teams desired the stout running back.
This Saturday, Duncan will make his first start in Texas since he was a senior in high school, except this time, he will be playing in a Jayhawk uniform and against a team that heavily recruited him — Texas Tech.
Duncan said Red Raider recruiters hounded him and ultimately drove him away.
"Whoever they had recruiting me was like the worst recruiter ever," Duncan said. "He used to call my house every single day. He used to ask me off-the-wall questions like, 'What type of shoes do you like to wear?'"
Duncan shunned Texas Tech from his recruiting list. But he said the passion to go to Texas Tech was never there in the first place.
"I couldn't go to Lubbock, man," he said. "It's eight hours away, and we're in Texas. I might as well have went down the street or somewhere. Out there is nothing."
Duncan will be in the city he loathes this weekend, hoping to have a break-out game for the jayhawks
The season started slowly for Duncan. He missed Kansas' first game of the year because he was suspended for violating team rules.
In week two, against a stingy UCLA defense, Duncan was ineffective. He managed a mealy 16 yards on 11 carries.
But on Sept. 22, against Colorado, Duncan had a much better game while the Kansas offense demonstrated a new look — two tight ends and a full back.
"I felt a lot better being out there," Duncan said. "Adding a fullback and two tight ends was real good for our offense. I felt real comfortable back there running the rock."
The comfort was evident on
Kansas' third drive of the game. He dragged two Buffaloes on his back for six yards on first down. He plowed through the Colorado defensive line on the next two plays to gather enough vardage for a first down.
When Kansas was forced into a third-down-and-seven situation with 5:13 left in the first quarter, Duncan grabbed a screen pass from quarterback Mario Kinsey and romped 23 vards across midfield.
In a matter of seconds, he had doubled his total vardage for the season.
Duncan delivered. It was this sign of life from the sophomore running back that uplifted offensive coordinator Rip Scherer. He hoped that Duncan's brief dominance could translate into consistency.
"We need some big plays from him," Scherer said. "Roggie will improve with the more reps he takes. He has the speed to do it, and he's only gotten better since his first time out."
Scherer said many college running backs had found success running out of a single-back offense. Although Duncan did not disagree with his coach, he
The addition of junior fullback Mitchell Scott to the Kansas offense has delighted Duncan.
said he was more at ease with a fullback blocking in front of him.
"I was used to running with a fullback ever since before high school," he said. "It's real important. I have a lot more confidence with Mitchell leading the way."
Scott smiled about his new role — to open up bigger holes for Duncan.
"It's more of a straight-ahead look than a finesse one when we use a fullback," Scott said. "I think Reggie benefits because it is a different look, different personnel."
Duncan said he thought his goals for the season — 1,000 yards rushing and helping his team reach a bowl game - could still be attained.
But Duncan said he was mostly focused on beating Texas Tech. He said that it was only a matter of time before his first big game of the season.
"We need a win," Duncan said.
"But I am waiting for a break-out game. I am ready for it to happen."

Soccer player honored
Add one more award to the Kansas soccer team trophy case.
After being the first player in school history to score three goals in one game last weekend, freshman forward Monica Brothers was named the Big 12 Conference Newcomer of the Week.
Brothers, a native of Leavenworth, scored three goals in the Jayhawks 5-3 victory over Oklahoma State, Sunday in Stillwater, Okla. Her three goals and six points were both single-game records.
Brothers is second in total scoring on the team, with 10 points on four goals and two assists. She also scored in the team's opening game against North Texas. Her four goals allow her to be tied for 10th among Big 12 leaders.
The Jashawks, who are 6-2 overall, 2-0 in Big 12 play, have benefited greatly from their freshman class. Along with Brothers, freshman forwards Rachel Gillifan and Amy Geha have both tallied game-winning goals, and freshman goalkeeper Meghan Miller has recorded 25 saves and two shutouts protecting the net.
Kansas, ranked eighth in the Central Region of the National Soccer Coaches' Association of America, looks to remain undefeated in Big 12 play when it plays Iowa State on Friday in Ames, Iowa. They play at No. 5 Nebraska Sunday in Lincoln, Neb.

Volleyball team aces Monday's NFL game
This past Monday night I took a walk on the wild side.
I broke the norm, went against the grain and did something I never thought I'd do. I skipped Monday Night Football.
I chose to spend my Monday evening at the Horejsi Family Athletic Center watching a Kansas volleyball game.
In all my three-plus years in Lawrence, I'd never made it out to see a Jayhawks' volleyball match. I'd made countless trips to Allen Fieldhouse, Memorial Stadium and Hoglund Ballpark, but never once had I set foot inside the Horejsi Center to see what it had to offer. Monday night I discovered what a great thing I'd been missing.
I showed up about 15 minutes before game time and walked in to find most of the center already filled with fans getting set for the Jayhawks' big match against the Missouri Tigers. From Big Jay to Roy Williams' prize recruit Wayne Simien, there were all kinds of faces in the crowd that I didn't expect to see. The band began to play and pretty soon, that little gym was rockin'.
Nearly 900 people came to see the Hawks battle the Tigers, and I could sense the excitement in the stands about the border-war battle about to take place. I've never been much of a volleyball fan, but a few minutes before the first serve, I was really starting to get in to it.
Filled with excitement and anticipation about my first volleyball match, I quickly found my seat at the end of the press row. Then just as I got settled, I was pelted in my right shoulder by a 100 miles per hour shot from the Missouri side of the floor.
At first, I was shocked, but the more I thought about it, the more excited I got. This was more fun than sitting behind the glass at a hockey game. The errant shot left me with a small bruise and a new reason to hate Missouri, but as soon as I regained my focus, I went on to enjoy an awesome evening of Kansas volleyball.
The Jayhawks' match with Missouri kept me interested the whole way through, and I saw things that Monday Night Football just can't offer. I watched Kansas senior Molly LaMere land flip shots on the Tigers' side with placement as brilliant as a Pete Sampras drop shot.
I saw junior Kylie Thomas guard the net like Dikembe Mutumbo does the rim, and junior Molly Scavizzo slam the ball with the authority of a Shaquille O'Neal rejection. I even watched one unlucky Tiger take a spiked ball right in the face, which made my shoulder bruise feel a lot better.
The most impressive thing I witnessed was the hustle of this young Jayhawk team. Coach Ray Bechard had his team going all out on every play and believe me, if Jerod Haase can write a book, *Floor Burns*, these women could fill a library with the stories of their hustle. Their effort was amazing and definitely something worth checking out.
By the end of the night, the 'Hawks had lost the match, but won me over on what Kansas volleyball games have to offer. If you're like me and have been choosing football forever, I challenge you to pass on the gridiron just once and take a peek inside the Horejsi Center.
But be careful, you just might get hooked.

'Hawks fall to No.25'Cats
800-22 ATS
Jill Dorsey, freshman defensive specialist, sets up for a pass during Kansas' loss at No. 25 Kansas State last night. With the loss, the Jayhawks have lost four of five Big 12 matches.
ZACH LONG/KANSAS STATE COLLEGIAN
Volleyball team swept despite a career night by sophomore hitter
By Steve Laurenzo Kansan sportswriter
Despite a career-best performance from sophomore outside hitter Abbie Jacobson, the Kansas volleyball team fell to No. 25 Kansas State last night in three games, 30-27, 30-21 and 30-27 at Ahearn Fieldhouse in Manhattan.
Kansas State dominated game two on the strength of a 7-0 run midway throughout the game. Jacobson took on a larger offensive roll, leading the Hawks with six kills.
In the third game, Kansas fought back again. Jacobson led the team offensively with seven kills, which brought her match total to a career-high 16. Defensively, she had seven digs for a career-high 19.
Despite her outstanding performance, Jacobson said she was disappointed with the loss.
"We played hard and we fought, but we were kind of streaky tonight," Jacobson said. "We let three balls drop and we were lacking on communication sometimes. We showed some times where it might have been the best we played all year, but we definitely had a lot of low points, too."
The lahawks (11-4, 2-4) were harried by Kansas State's career kill leader, Liz Wegner. Wegner finished with 19 kills and
"We made runs at them, but they're a veteran team and they didn't panic."

only two injuries. She also had nine cuts.
Kansas coach Ray Bechard said his team fought hard against a tough team.
"There were some things we'd like to have done a little better technically, but I thought we battled really hard," Bechard said.
The Jayhawks made the Wildcats (8-4, 4-2) earn game one, allowing Kansas State to get no more than four points ahead. Sophomore outside hitter Sarah Rome led Kansas' offense with six kills and Jacobson helped control the 'Cats with 10 digs and a block. Jacobson added three kills in game one.
Bechard was pleased with his team's effort and impressed by Jacobson's performance.
"Jacobson was tremendous," Bechard said, "We made some runs at them, but they're a veteran team and they didn't panic."
The Jayhawks return home to face the Texas Tech Red Raiders, at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Horejsi Family Athletic Center. The Red Raiders defeated the Wildcats 3-1 on Sept. 22.

Signal caller's style mirrors alumnus' from '95 bowl
by Stephen Schmidt and Jay Krail
Kansan sportswriters
The last time the Kansas football team went to a bowl game, it was led by a quarterback with the same style of play as this year's starter, Mario Kinsey.
15
In 1995, senior Mark Williams anchored the offense that led the Jayhawks to a 10-2 record and a victory against UCLA in the Aloha Bowl. As a starter, Williams had developed a decisive and accurate passing game.
He also had a fearless on-the-field demeanor and his ability to scramble out of the pocket added another dimension to the team's rushing game — the same style of play displayed by Kinsey.
Although Williams was a senior in 1995, it was his first season as starter. He could have returned for the 1996 season had he not burned a year of eligibility by playing in one game in 1994, a 72-0 shellacking of Alabama-Birmingham.
Kinsey, who redshirted last year, continues his first season in the starting role Saturday at Texas Tech
UNIVERSITY ARCHIVES PHOTO
"He matured unbelievably quickly," Falkenstien said of Williams. "He was a good passer. He could scramble and he just made things happen. It was the biggest surprise for us to find a quarterback who could do those things."
But the similarities are apparent.
Max Falkenstien, who has called Kansas basketball and football games on the radio since 1983, said it was still too early for a Williams-Kinsey comparison.
He said he thought Kinsey had plenty of time to achieve what Williams did, and more.
"I think he had a little bit more talent than Mario," Hirsch said. Williams seemed more disciplined as he looked downfield, and like many of that team's standouts, he had a winning attitude, Hirsch said.
Bud Hirsch, associate professor of English, has attended Kansas games since 1976.
He remembers Williams as performing better that season than Kinsey has in his two starts this year in losses against UCLA and Colorado.
However, Williams had a more dependable rushing game backing him up, led by all-time leading Kansasrusher June Henley.
In his eighth season, Kansas coach Glen Mason led the 1995 squad to a 10-2 overall record, going 5-2 in conference play. The Jayhawks' only losses came at the hands of powerhouses Kansas State and Nebraska. During the 10 victories, the Jayhawks averaged 37 points a game and gave up close to 20.
"In contrast to the teams we've seen since, they expected to win," Hirsch said.

Along the way, Kansas topped ranked opponents Colorado and Oklahoma, and was ranked as high as No. 6 after taking down the

Sooners.
In two games, Kinsey is 18 for 42, completing 42.9 percent of his passes for 258 yards.
Williams completed 174 completed passes and ended the 1995 campaign with a completion percentage of 61.7.
The 1995 team finished tied for second in the conference and capped its storybook season in Honolulu on Christmas Day, when the Jayhawks defeated UCLA 51-30 in the Aloha Bowl. Williams threw for 288 yards and three touchdowns on his way to earning the team's player of the game honors. He also rushed for 48 yards.

Starter dishes finish BIG APPETITES
STORY BY THOMAS HOLLAND PHOTOS BY AARON LINDBERG
Admit it. You are getting mighty sick of cafeteria food by now.
And it's not a bad thing — it's just a natural part of college life. You're starting to crave tasty food that's well-cooked and you're willing to pay whatever it costs. Problem is, you’re broke, which also is a natural part of college life.
But don't worry, because there is a solution to your problem.
It's called an appetizer, and Lawrence has plenty to choose among.
From hot wings to shrimp scampi to cheese sticks, the Kansan samples several appetizer options.
Stone Canyon, 3801 W. 6th St.
The new kid in town shows patrons how to enjoy high-quality appetizers.
STONE CANYON
Stone Canyon, 3801 W. Sixth St., in its fourth week open, has been busy dishing out food such as this Stone scampi sampler.
Stone Canyon gives customers the opportunity to enjoy a different fare for a cheap price.
The recommended appetizer is the shrimp scampi ($8). These gigantic shrimp are grilled with a garlic sauce and served with Parmesan baked bread.
Stone
Canyon also
offers a spinach
and artichoke
dip ($6). Just be
sure to add a little
salt to the serving.
Chili's Grill & Bar, 2319 Iowa St.
Chili's offers a different experience. Its trademark item is the Awesome Blossom ($5.79), a breaded onion with a dipping
Another good item is the Con Queso ($3.79). It comes with tortilla chips and the sauce itself is good enough to take home to keep snacking on. The Con Queso also heats up well in the microwave, making a great snack to keep in any residence-hall-room fridge. JB Stouts Sports Bar & Grill, 721 Wakarusa
sauce. The only problem with the blossom is that it doesn't have nearly enough dip.
The combination quesadilla platter ($6.99) was like tasty, warm mush. But if warm mush doesn't sound tasty to you, you're right. The bean mix was too liquid for eating.
Although JB Stouts burgers are awesome, the appetizers are a different story.
But a filling item is the Beef Tips and Roasted Points ($7.99). But be careful how you eat it — it may cause some confusion. The meat comes with garlic bread, but no directions. Perplexed customers didn't know whether to dip the bread into the concoction or spoon the meat onto the pieces. And it's not so fun to eat if you don't know if you're doing it right.
Pat's Blue Rib N Barbeque, 1618 W. 23rd St.
One of the best barbecue places lacks appealing appetizers. Although Pat's Blue Rib'N has great deals on barbecue platters, the appetizers don't match the rest of the menu. The fried mushrooms ($4.95) were hot, but the taste must have gone on vacation.
Old Chicago, 2329 Iowa St.
Old Chicago offers the best non-traditional appetizer. Sicilian pepperoni rolls ($4.99) weave fresh bread, marinara and spicy pepperoni in an awesome package. This item is good enough to order every time.
Old Chicago serves quesadillas as well. The grilled beef quesadilla ($7.29) is good, but watch out — the large portion of onions is a little overwhelming. Molly McGee's, 2429 Iowa St.
Molly McGee's has deals on appetizers and offers 25-cent wings on Sunday nights. The wings sometimes come with too much hot sauce at the bottom that makes the last three wings extra spicy, and may send you running for more Kleenex.
The Cheese McGees ($5.95) are a mix of bacon bits, fries and cheese and are recommended to eat while watching Kansas football or men's basketball games in the coming months. Pizzaia Uno Chicago Bar & Grill 2322
Mizza Uno Chicago Bar & Grill, 3333 Iowa
Pizzeria Uno's has great deals during its happy hours. From 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
and after 9 p.m., Uno's offers 50-percent-off appetizers on most of the menu
The house specialties aren't typical bar and grill foods. The Tuscany Bread appetizer ($2.39 during happy hours) combines spinach, basil tomatoes and Muenster cheese.
Chicago-style deep dish pizzas is what Pizzaier Uno Chicago Bar and Grill, 3333 Iowa St., serves up for lunch and dinner. The pizza skin appetizer includes mashed potatoes, bacon and cheddar cheese.
THE COFFEE SHOP
Jefferson's oysters also are a great experience for those wanting to expand their culinary horizons. One option, the Jefferson Baked Oyster ($4.25), is smothered with marinara, Parmesan and jalapeños. Henry T's Bar and Grill, 3520 W. 6th St.
The best bet for a cheap meal is the sampler platter ($6.75). A little bit of everything from the menu for fewer than $6. It's a good deal when you can't make up your mind.
Another sports bar in Lawrence that has good appetizers is Henry T's. A unique grilled flavor is added to the taste of the wings ($6.25 for 12 wings), but thankfully, these wings don't have any extra hot sauce issues.
Jefferson's offers Shrimp Jammers ($5.50), a concoction of red peppers stuffed with shrimp and cream cheese.
Jefferson's serves up quick dishes great for study-break snack. In addition to oysters and crab legs,
The pizza skins ($2.99 during happy hours) combine mashed potatoes, bacon and cheddar cheese in a deep dish pizza crust.
Jefferson's Restaurant, 743 Massachusetts St.
Jefferson's Restaurant, 743 Massachusetts St., boasts wings and oysters that leave patrons reaching for paper towels after their messy meals.

Today's Birthday (Oct. 4).
Today's BIRTHDAY NOTE:
If you set a really big financial goal and start working toward it, you won't achieve it this year, but eventually you'll get there. 'It' it take a while, true, but if you never start, it'll never happen. How should you go about it? Find out, do it and retire rich. This year, it' it be fun.
Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 5.
Negotiations must be handled carefully and
precisely. If you've got the facts to back up
your claim, more money could be yours.
Don't trust a friend to provide these; dig for
them yourself.
raurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a 7. There's still confusion at the top, so keep your head down. You'll have little trouble expressing your desires in a private setting, with the ones you love. Stay in a snug harbor and let the storm rage on without you.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 6. You may be tempted to dump your responsibilities and take off on a wild adventure. That might be fun, but now is not the time to start. Now is a better time to face responsibilities.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 6.
This time a friend's advice is less welcome if she tells you to stop when you want to go. You have free will, but remember: There isn't much to be gained from a loss. Do more research before making a big investment.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) Today is a 5.
It's hard to just say "no" to something a loved one wants. If you can't afford it, you may have no choice. It's hard to discuss a sensitive subject at first, but it'll get easier. Keep talking about it.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is a 6. Negotiations with your mate or business partner are slowing you down. You can't quite agree, but this is not bad. Pending changes should be evaluated carefully, as you well know. Besides something unexpected could happen soon.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Today is an 8.
Your spirits are up, even if your immediate surroundings haven't changed. Want to take a step beyond your normal boundaries? Start planning. Make it happen.
Lec (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 7.
An older person's frustration with someone else could work to your advantage. Be on the lookout so that you can offer your services when the other guy goofs up. You could win the prize, raise or promotion. You snoope, you lose.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 4.
Things have settled down, and you're back in the same old routine. As the excitement of the past few days fades, you realize there's a good-sized mess to clean up. A new idea or machine has a few bugs to be worked out, too. Slow and easy does it.
2
capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan.19) Today is a 7.
You'd like to buy the best of everything for the ones you love — all the things you didn't have when you were a kid. What they'd really like is your time. Since you have more of that than money, squander it recklessly on them.
Two People
LION
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a 7.
One old worry after another is forgotten as you sink into familiar love. Sometimes your family's kind of strict, but it's for your own good. And that is what you will teach the next generation in almost the exact same words. You'll be surprised to discover.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today is a 6.
A problem you're trying to solve at home will take longer than you thought. It's kind of like you're digging up a rock. The more you dig, the more rock you find. You may have to go around it.

Theater connections help shape actor's life

Senior thespian stars in 'Six Degrees of Separation'
鱼
By Chris Wristen
Kansan senior staff writer
Joe Boothe, Overland Park senior, pauses for emphasis in the play Six Degrees of Separation. Boothe, who has been acting since grade school, is portraying John "Flan" Flanders in his second major role at the University. The play opens at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre.
You might not know Joe Boothe, but you're much closer to him than you think.
You have a connection to him. Your roommate knows him, your girlfriend's best friend talked to him at a party, or perhaps your Western Civilization professor had him in a class last semester.
Regardless, a maximum of six people separate you from Boothe and other people you come in contact with.
That's the point of the University Theatre show, Six Degrees of Separation, which opens at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre. It explores interactions between people and stars Boothe, Overland Park senior, as John "Flan" Flanders, alongside Allison Gabbard, John Luzar and Xavier Rice
"It's about how we actually connect to people, which is so interesting," Boothe said. "It's six degrees of separation, not connection. We're trying to be connected to all of these people, but we're separated, and we use that separation as a loophole to get us out of having to care about other people.
"If you walk down the street and see a homeless person who's begging for change, you can walk past him very easily if you feel he has no personal significance to you," Boothe said. "But if you realize that you're connected to that person by at the most six people, then suddenly you have a personal responsibility to that person."
Boothe tries to connect to people through acting. It's a trade that's been a long maturing process, which has shaped his life.
No one has witnessed Boothe's growth as an actor more than Dave Martin, Leawood senior, who plays Larkin in Six Degrees and has acted with Boothe since his first on-stage performance in seventh grade, as a Jamaican tour guide in the comedy show In Quest of Columbus.
Martin said Boothe commanded the stage then, and he knew he would move on to bigger and better things.
In high school, Boothe was cast in roles ranging from Peter in Jesus Christ Superstar, to an insane asylum patient in Marat/Sade, but when he headed to Kansas State he thought he'd taken his last curtain call.
"I really thought I was done with theater," Boothe said. "I didn't expect to do it again. I wasn't burned out on it, but I didn't think it had anything to do with what I was going to do for a living or who I was."
He was wrong.
After a miserable semester at KState, Boothe transferred to Johnson County Community College for a year before arriving at the University.
He needed a new beginning, so he returned to the theater. He
auditioned for Henry IV, Part I and was cast by director Jack Wright in a leading role as Hotspur. That role helped Boothe rediscover himself.
"It turned out I loved my director, I loved the people in the cast and it was just fantastic." Boothe said. "That was probably one of the most healthy moments in my life when I decided to take a chance and see what happens. It was the best thing I ever did."
He delivered an intense performance that featured explosive anger, bold dialogues and well-choreographed sword and dagger fight scenes.
"Not only did he have to be physically fit for the part, but he had to look like a medieval swordsman," said Martin, who also appeared in Henry IV. "You have to be a good enough, serious actor and intelligent enough to cut through Shakespeare.
"It's six degrees of seperation, not connection. We're
trying to be connected to all of these people, but we're seperated and
we use that seperation as a loophole to get us out of having to care about other people."
Joe Boothe
Overland Park senior
"I didn't think he was the intelligent actor that he turned out to be," Martin said.
Boothe went to Chicago last summer and studied and practiced comedy at Improv Olympic, a comedy hot spot where legends like Chris Farley and Mike Meyers got their start and writers for Late Night with Conan O'Brien hung out.
"You'd look around the room and realize that there were so many people there who were so funny," Boothe said. "Some of them were absolute geniuses."
Back in Lawrence, he's on a stage of local geniuses and hopefuls like himself. His newest challenge, in Six Degrees, pressed his limits and forced him to balance anger with tender moments and a touch of comedy.
He said it made him dig deeper and find new ways to connect with the audience.
He said he has tried to develop stillness on stage and has tried to develop a better grasp of comedic moments to help reach the audience.
But his education is far from over. Boothe admitted he still had a lot to learn, but he's come a long way since seventh grade.
"There has been some maturity and an increase in the ability to connect with people," Boothe said. "That's all I want—to be able to communicate better."

Guitar picker to show off artistic style at workshop

Dykes, who has been described as a combination Merle Travis, Chet Atkins and Vince Gill, adds a unique touch of his own to the delicate method of fingerstyle.
With four albums, appearances at the Grand Ole Opry and performances around the country, worldclass fingerstyle guitarist Doyle Dykes is fast becoming a household name in guitar circles.

Tonight, area guitar players will
Mass Street Music, 1347 Massachusetts St., and Taylor Guitars are co-sponsoring a fingerstyle guitar workshop with Dykes.
The workshop is free, but reservations are recommended as seating is limited. The session starts at 7 tonight.
Dykes, a Taylor clinician since 1995, will discuss finger picking, chiming techniques and his own "right-hand dynamics." He will
also perform his own songs, displaying the finger style technique, in which notes are individually picked out of a chord instead of being strummed.
"It's a very delicate style," said Tim Nelson, Mass Street Music department manager. "It's a style that takes a lot of time to develop."
Dykes got his start playing guitar with his musical family in Florida and eventually joined a Gospel group. He has toured with The Stamps, Elvis' backup band and
played with the band of Hee Haw star Grandpa Jones.
Dykes also has a standing invitation to play the Grand Ole Opry whenever he has the opportunity.
Information about Dykes is available on his Web site www.doyledykes.com. For more information about tonight's workshop, contact Mass Street Music at 843-3535.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 3B
Genitals are jewels to be treasured
Tonight, or whenever you get a chance, grab a mirror and flashlight, lock your in your room, get naked and look at yourself — really look at yourself.
No, not at your face, hair or possible problem thighs, but at your penis or vagina. If you get really adventurous, go check out the back nine too.
Commentary
Meghan Bainum Columnist jayplayskansan.com
Get your hands in the action and move things around, play around a little bit — this will help make your experience educational and fun. Even if you get distracted for a white, remember to look at everything thoroughly.
If you don't come away from your little tryst with Mr. Mirror with a whole new appreciation for the beauty and uniqueness of whatever part you happen to be looking at, you could be holding the mirror wrong, or you could be suffering from a nasty case of genital angst (GA).
GA is when people with perfectly good penises or vaginas are so worried that their stuff is abnormally sized, shaped or colored that they
don't experience sexual arousal or sexual experiences to the fullest especially when another person is involved.
In this way, the penis or vagina is often treated like a creepy roommate who looks strange, smells funny and often embarrasses their friends in front of the people their friends like.
In reality, your genitalia should be your BFF (best friend forever, for those of you who don't remember 3rd grade). What else is always there for you, only wants action when you do and won't hog the bed at night?
But just like with any best friend, you must learn to accept and love your vagina or penis to have a good, close sexual relationship with yourself and other people.
Maybe your penis curves to the right when you have an erection, or you have a small clitoris and large vaginal lips. Just as people with brown eyes are no better than people with blue, the way your genitalia looks says nothing about what kind of person you are or how good of lover you will be.
Penises and vaginas come in all different shapes, sizes and colors — and like snowflakes, no two are the same. And, unless you are willing to undergo some costly and risky procedures, there's not much you can do to alter the natural look of your private parts.
But, there is something you can do to alter how you feel about the natural look of things down south.
Spending quality time in front of the mirror is one way to feel more comfortable about yourself, and is a way to make sure your penis or vagina looks healthy.
Masturbating is another great way to figure out the ins and outs, or ups
and downs, of your particular plaything.
If you have close friends of the same sex — and you're pretty open-minded — drink a couple of beers then give one another a look. When you're done, discuss the similarities and differences in equipment.
Sometimes it's nice to realize that most people have hang-ups about their genitals, and despite some differences, most vaginas and penises look like, well, vaginas and penises. The angle of the dangle or the size of the lips really doesn't make that big of a difference.
Once you feel like your genitalia is working for you instead of against you, it will be easier—and much less stressful—to get naked and be confident about it in front of another person. You also might feel happier and more confident in general.
After all, who isn't happy to have a new BFF?

Band mixes funky sounds, danceable beats
By Jeff Hayes Jayplay writer
When Motion For Alliance takes the stage at the Jazzhaus next Wednesday, jaws will drop. It's doubtful any band to recently pass through Lawrence has come close to MFA's unique brand of improvisation.
With performances that incorporate live musicians, light shows, a DJ
and even modern dance, MFA strives to fully incorporate the audience into its music.
The band's sound changes at every venue to capture the mood of the audience.
The Boulder, Colo., sextet isn't easily categorized as all jazz, funk or electronica, although many will attempt to lump MFA into one of these categories at first listen.
The band's main goal is to not only play music that is innovative and artistically valid, but danceable too. And MFA succeeds admirably.
MFA's debut album Arrival swirls electro-funk grooves with techno backbeats and acid jazz improvisation.
This is music that could go in any direction — and does.
Songs blend seamlessly into one another, sliding
through stylistic shifts with mind-boggling ease. Jittery drum beats emerge from fluid interlocking guitar lines that then quickly morph into funky synth-horns and gurgling bass.
Few bands could merge aural elements of television, wire, the Chemical Brothers and P-Funk as effortlessly, but here the effect sounds completely natural.
tossed into the mix every few tracks, and unexpected elements lurk around every corner.

Band's lyrics have powerful impact
By Louise Stauffer Jayplay writer
The social consciousness of Honey Tongue's music is what separates the band from the leagues of mindless rockers ruling the airways — especially since last month's terrorist attacks.
"Since the tragedy on the 11th, the amount of impact that our shows are having on people is amazing," said Graham McNeill, guitarist for Honey Tongue.
Although the band's method of exploring music through social issues may have set them out of the popular music loop at first, McNeill said, things might be changing.
"Our shows are having such an effect on people," McNeill said. "It's like the times are catching up with us."
The Seattle-based foursome includes McNeill, guitar, Jen Ayers, lead singer and keyboard, Sam Larson, bass and vocals, and Darton Lewis, drums.
Honey Tongue's lyrics—such as the ones that deal with the origins of youth violence—may be powerful, but it's the combination of passionate lyrics, a solid rock sound and a talented lead singer that makes Honey Tongue a great band.
One of Honey Tongue's strengths is the voice of lead singer Jen Ayers. The Milwaukee native has been compared to musicians ranging from Fiona Apple to Eddie Vedder.
Although Ayers said she was flattered by the comparisons, she said she had problems with them.
"Definitely it's flattering to be compared to people I admire, but the danger is that I need to be my own artist," Ayers said. "I am who I am."
Although Ayers' singing may be compared to Apple, her energy is similar to the raw, commanding voice of Janis Joplin.
Ayers' voice hits hard and tugs at emotions without overpowering the music.
The band's self-titled EP showcases four songs that exemplify the quartet's specialties. Ayers' voice is especially reminiscent of Fiona Apple's in the song "Released," and is more broody and soulful in songs such as "Like Diamonds" and "Ferocious." The song "New Beginning" has a hard-rock quality to it that sounds similar to a quieter Pearl Jam.
Honey Tongue tours the United States full-time and will visit Lawrence this week. The band will play at 10 p.m. tomorrow at the Jazzhaus, 926 1/2 Massachusetts St.
McNeill said that although the band enjoys playing in New York City, they also love to tour college towns because that is where the band receives the best response.
The cost for tomorrow's show is $4. Honey Tongue will be back in Lawrence on Nov. 9 to play another show.

Band's lyrics have powerful impact
By Louise Stauffer Jayplay writer
The social consciousness of Honey Tongue's music is what separates the band from the leagues of mindless rockers ruling the airways — especially since last month's terrorist attacks.
"Since the tragedy on the 11th, the amount of impact that our shows are having on people is amazing," said Graham McNeill, guitarist for Honey Tongue.
"Our shows are having such an effect on people," McNeill said. "It's like the times are catching up with us."
guitars for him. Although the band's method of exploring music through social issues may have set them out of the popular music loop at first, McNeill said, things might be changing.
The Seattle-based foursome includes McNeill, guitar, Jen Ayers, lead singer and keyboard, Sam Larson, bass and vocals, and Darton Lewis, drums.
Honey Tongue's lyrics—such as the ones that deal with the origins of youth violence—may be powerful, but it's the combination of passionate lyrics, a solid rock sound and a talented lead singer that makes Honey Tongue a great band.
One of Honey Tongue's strengths is the voice of lead singer Jen Ayers. The Milwaukee native has been compared to musicians ranging from Fiona Apple to Eddie Vedder.
Although Ayers said she was flattered by the comparisons, she said she had problems with them.
"Definitely it's flattering to compared to people I admire, but the danger is that I need to be my own artist." Ayers said. "I am who I am."
Although Ayers' singing may be compared to Apple, her energy is similar to the raw, commanding voice of Janis Joplin.
Ayers' voice hits hard and tugs at emotions without overpowering the music.
The band's self-titled EP showcases four songs that exemplify the quartet's specialties. Ayers' voice is especially reminiscent of Fiona Apple's in the song "Released," and is more broody and soulful in songs such as "Like Diamonds" and "Ferocious." The song "New Beginning" has a hard-rock quality to it that sounds similar to a quieter Pearl Jam.
Honey Tongue tours the United States full-time and will visit Lawrence this week. The band will play at 10 p.m. tomorrow at the Jazzhaus, 926 1/2 Massachusetts St.
McNeill said that although the band enjoys playing in New York City, they also love to tour college towns because that is where the band receives the best response.
The cost for tomorrow's show is $4. Honey Tongue will be back in Lawrence on Nov. 9 to play another show.

Not enough substance in 'Don't Say a Word'
By Brandon Stinnett Movie Reviewer
Human ingenuity and intellect in movies are lost. In their place are wild chase scenes and bravura violence.
It seems that Hollywood has lost its faith in the filmoer's ability to think and propensity to appreciate characters who do the same.
It's the only explanation for the wealth of new movies released that contain inventive, thought-provoking premises, only to be trivialized with common plot conventions.
I'd gladly trade 100 car chases for one character willing to use mental trickery to outwit his or her adversary.
Instead, we get Don't Say a Word, a mediocre movie that is, at times, both suspenseful and thrilling. It's better than most Hollywood thrillers, but it could have been so much more.
Michael Douglas stars as Dr. Nathan Conrad, a wealthy New York psychiatrist, whose 8-year-old daughter is kidnapped the night before Thanksgiving.
When Nathan wakes up and finds his daughter missing, he instinctively picks up the phone to call the police. Instead of a dial tone, he's greeted by the kidnapper's voice barking instructions.
Nathan is told that the only way to get his daughter back alive is to convince one of his patients
— a neurotic 18-year-old woman
— to disclose a six-digit number
that she has memorized.
The catch is Nathan must get the number by 5 p.m. that day, meaning he will have to conduct weeks of psychiatric work in a few short hours.
Douglas is convincing as an ordinary man forced to take extraordinary measures to save his daughter. He responds to the kidnapper's demands with steadfast determination and calculated self-control. He's no pushover.
It's the classic Douglas character we've seen in other thrillers, such as A Perfect Murder and The Game.
The movie's best moments are when a desperate Nathan is locked inside a mental ward room
with the woman, racing against time to coax the number out of her. These scenes achieve a level of suspense unmatched by any of the violent thrills and chase scenes that litter the movie's second half.
Don't Say a Word has some of that early on, but the substance quickly gives way to style.
The best thrillers - Silence of the Lambs, The Fugitive, No Way Out—achieve their most compelling suspense through the verbal and psychological interactions of the actors.
In the end, viewers are left with nothing but the feeling that they've seen it all before. We deserve better.
Contact Stinnett at 864-4810
DON'T SAY A WORD
Bad movie of the week: Street Fighter. It's too easy to trash talk this movie, which is based on a popular video game. For one, movies based on video games are inherently bad, and it stars Jean-Claude Van Damme, the perennial star of bad action movies. Although inept as an actor, Van Damme movies occasionally offer slight entertainment value (see Kickboxer). Not so with Street Fighter, which is every bit as bad as one might expect.
★★
Great movie of the week: Wonder Boys. Michael Douglas stars as a weed-smoking author who wrote one great book, but can't seem to get anything else in his life right. It's a moving and very funny drama that showcases the subtleties that have made Douglas a great actor. It's a stark contrast from the roles audiences have grown accustom to seeing Douglas portrait in many of his other, more mainstream films.
'Serendipity' has broad appeal
Bu plausible new release is not your standard 'chick flick'
By Nicole Roché Jayplay writer
A touch of Irish in downtown Lawrence
This is the kind of movie that women will flock to by the thousands.
Yet Serendipity, which opens tomorrow, proves to be much more than a run-of-the-mill romantic comedy.
Pat Lynn Dance
Trager is so enamored with this young woman that he asks for her number, even though both are involved in other relationships.
Thomas believes that if the two are meant to be together, fate will take care of the rest.
Most of the film takes place a decade later, when both realize their current fliances may not be their true soul mates.
Cusack makes it easy to empathize with his character's plight.
Perhaps this is because he has played many roles through the years that required him to be a woeful, self-deprecating individual.
Thankfully, Cusack's character matches her with his realistic take on relationships. Still, it is difficult to watch these two just "wait and see what happens."
Beckinsale, who looks slightly less anorexic from her Pearl Harbor days, borders on annoying with her lofty idealistic views of romance.
a really sweet woman, which makes the plot seem much more believable.
An interesting plot element in Serendipity revolves around Trager's fiancee (Amita Balla). Unlike other romantic comedies, Balla's character is not presented as obnoxious or incompatible with Trager. In fact, she seems like
The answers here are not cut and dried, leaving audience members torn between feeling sorry for the fiancee and ultimately wanting what is best for Trager.
Some of the funniest parts of the movie lie in the dialogue between Cusack and Jeremy Piven, who plays Trager's best man. A lot of moments of classic Cusack make the movie simply hilarious.
Serendipity is the date movie of this season — not only because it feeds into what people want to see in a movie of this genre, but also because it's a well-crafted film.
As for all the men who detest the thought of a "chick flick," have faith. My boyfriend liked it, too.

Response to proposed downtown hotel mixed
By Andy Gassaway Special to the Kansan
Lawrence hotel managers and business owners have mixed reactions about the possibility of a new hotel in the 900 block of New Hampshire Street.
Lindquist and Craig Hotels Inc., a Lawrence development company, 1611 Andrews Drive, wants to build a seven-story chain hotel in downtown Lawrence as a part of the Downtown 2000 project.
But the company must first reach an agreement with the property's owner, 9-10 LC, the Lawrence developers behind the Downtown 2000 project, which includes the new parking garage at Ninth and New Hampshire streets.
Lindquist and Craig and some local businesses are optimistic about the economic possibilities a hotel would bring, but the development company has not made any definite plans to build vet.
The company says it is still confident in the potential of the project, in spite of modest economic conditions.
"As with anything of this magnitude, the state of the economy is a major factor," said Steve Craig, president and CEO of Lindquist and Craig, whose past developments include Radisson and Holiday Inn hotels across the country.
"My business judgment tells me it will be successful," he said. "We believe there's a strong likelihood that a hotel in that area would out-perform the others in town."
David Burress, a research economist at KU's Policy Research Institute, said he believed the economy would recover from its recent turbulence by the time the proposed hotel might open.
However, local hotel managers said starting a new hotel in Lawrence would be a challenge because of the recently flat hotel market. Smith Travel Research reported a 2 percent drop in hotel occupancy rates nationwide last August.
"A new hotel couldn't survive," said Johnita Jones, assistant manager of the Lawrence Days Inn, 2309 Iowa St. "The only time Lawrence has business is when KU has something like football going on. No motels are full unless a KU event is happening."
Stephanie Bowler, manager of SpringHill Suites by Marriott, One Riverfront Plaza, said a new hotel also would established businesses.
"There's just not enough business to go around. A new hotel would take from what's here, rather than give back." Bowler said.
Despite the economic challenges, other Lawrence business owners say a new hotel would bring more revenue to their businesses.
"I'm for anything that will bring people downtown," said Melodie Christal, president of Downtown Lawrence Inc. and manager of Savannah Lingerie, 735 Massachusetts St.
Raegann Urish, Lawrence senior and employee at the Eldridge Hotel, 701 Massachusetts St., said she also believed an additional hotel would stimulate business downtown.
"KU brings in so many people," Urish said. "I don't think it would hurt at all. Being on-site downtown, it helps guests to be in this area."
Marty Moore, a 9-10 LC partner, said his group was conducting feasibility tests and considering alternative projects, such as the development of a multi-story building with shopping and offices.
Until 9-10 LC makes a commitment to the hotel, no prospective time frame for construction will be determined.
Open house first of its kind
Campus groups plan about 1,500 activities for tomorrow's event
By Eve Lamborn
Kansan staff writer
Visitors to the University of Kansas this weekend will have a chance to sail a concrete canoe, explore the Campanile, examine a 3,000-year-old Egyptian papyrus scroll or play basketball with former Kansas guard Jerod Haase.
The University is opening its doors to the community from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m tomorrow for the first-ever Universitywide open house.
Margue Frederick, associate director of admissions and coordinator of the KU
These activities range from tours to lectures to demonstrations to performances, allowing visitors to sample the diversity of experiences the University offers, she said. Most groups will set up tables along lavawk Boulevard.
Visitor Center, said more than 100 groups at the University had planned about 1.500 different activities.
The day will culminate with a Hispanic Heritage Parade at 2:30 p.m. on Jayhawk Boulevard with Chancellor Robert Hemenway acting as the grand marshal.
"It's a good way to acquaint the public with all the research we do," Frederick said.
She said she hoped 15,000 people would visit campus this weekend.
"We're particularly targeting families and potential students," she said. "It's a
family event to get children feeling comfortable about KU."
Frederick said many people in Lawrence did not see the need to visit campus often, but she said she hoped this event would change that perception.
"Local people see KU as a place they have to drive around to get downtown," she said. "This has the potential to do a lot for the community."
Many schools and academic departments have programs planned for the day, such as the School of Pharmacy.
Gene Hotchkiss, assistant to the dean, said the School of Pharmacy would have a table set up on Jayhawk Boulevard and would also invite visitors into Malott Hall.
The school will provide free blood pressure monitoring, body fat analysis, blood glucose screenings, cholesterol
screenings and bone density checks. The school also will demonstrate how different medicines are compounded.
Francis Devlin, assistant to the dean, said the KU Libraries would show visitors the largest and smallest books at the University, display books written by KU faculty and teach kids how to do research on the Internet.
Frederick said she proposed the idea of the open house to the the chancellor last February. She received a positive response from him as well as other members of the University community.
"The enthusiasm was so great we just tried to have it happen this fall," she said.
She said the open house would likely become an annual event.

Dragsters gather on Thursdays in Topeka
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
The Christmas tree lights start out red, flash to yellow and finally turn green. The gas pedal on Jason Bishop's 1991 Honda CRX drops to the floor, his tires squeal, dust flies and 15 seconds later, it's all done.
This pro stock drag racing car is being prepared to compete next week in Shrieveport, La., by Steve Bruce Race Cars of Lawrence.
Every Thursday night, people gather at Heartland Park racetrack in Topeka to drag race and compare cars. For $10, anyone can enter a car in the draig races that take place from 5 to 9 p.m.
J. E. WILSON/KANSAN
"A couple of my buddies told me about it," he said. "And I just decided to go. There are some people out there every week, but there are a lot of people there just one time."
Bishop, Topeka freshman has been going to drag races since he was 17.
The track is a quarter-mile long, and two cars race side by
side to the finish line.
A drag race is between two cars that start from a standstill. An electronic device, called a Christmas tree, displays lights that signal to the drivers when to start the race. It is called a Christmas tree because of its multicolored lights.
Cars race down a quartermile track and are measured for two things: speed and elapsed time. The first car to cross the finish line wins.
Aaron Weigel, Brookville sophomore, went to Heartland Park for the first time last week. He said he and a friend
decided to check it out after reading an ad about it in the paper.
Weigel said that some people were there for fun, but others took the competition seriously, spending time and

Planners may wind new leg of trafficway into wetlands
Baker property's fate to be considered Monday night
A proposed route for the eastern leg of the South Lawrence Trafficway that would cut through the Baker Wetlands could be a step closer to reality if the Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission recommends it on Monday.
The planning commission will have a special meeting at 6 p.m. Monday in City Hall, Sixth and Massachusetts streets, to consider a task force's recommendation for extending the traffic along a proposed route known as 32nd Street.
The task force, whose members were appointed by the planning commission, voted 5-2 on Tuesday in support of the recommendation, which calls for the trafficway to cross the wetlands south of 31st Street.
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
The task force also recommended moving a part of 31st Street that runs through Haskell Indian Nations University onto land owned by Baker University. The task force had considered tracing 42nd Street with the trafficway. That was the only option that would have brought the route south of the Wakarusa River and avoided the disruption of the Baker Wetlands.
Mike Rees, chief counsel for Kansas Department of Transportation, said the task force's recommendation was significant.
"I thought this was the best solution to preserve and enhance the wetlands." Rees said.
The planning commissioners' recommendation will go before the Lawrence City Commission and Douglas County Commission for consideration. The two commissions will convene for a joint meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 23, to decide on a route for KDOT to build.
The South Lawrence Trafficway was designed to bypass Lawrence and provide a quicker route from Topeka to Johnson County by connecting Interstate 70 to Kansas Highway 10. The eastern leg has been a source of controversy for years because of concern about disrupting the Baker Wetlands.

Bob Dole to visit campus today for building's groundbreaking
Bob Dole, former U.S. Senate majority leader and University of Kansas alumnus, will visit the University at 12:30 p.m. today to help break ground for construction of the Robert J. Dole Institute for Public Service and Public Policy.
Dole will be accompanied by his wife, Elizabeth, Gov. Bill Graves, Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Richard Smith, director of the institute.
Todd Cohen, assistant director of University Relations, said students were invited to come to the groundbreaking.
He said construction for the $8 million, 28,000-square-foot building had already begun, but the ceremony would be a formal way to thank the people who helped raise money for the institute, including the Doles.

Collapse of sewage tank traps, injures 11 workers
The Associated Press
CARSON, Calif. — The roof of a giant sewage tank under construction collapsed yesterday, dropping 11 workers some 50 feet into a web of steel rods and wet concrete. Four of the workers were critically injured, including at least one who was impaled.
"There's bent steel and rebar sticking out all over the place," said Roland Sprewell, Los Angeles County Fire Department Inspector. "It's very similar to the images we've been seeing on TV the last couple of weeks."
The workers were trapped for nearly three hours. Four were taken to hospitals in critical condition with injuries ranging from a punctured lung to major fractures. The others had minor injuries.
Sprewell said two workers had been
impaled on rebar — the steel rods used to reinforce concrete — after falling into the tank, which is 50 feet high and 120 feet wide.
The tank is one of three being built by Kiewitt Pacific Co. to store sewage. Two have been completed, but the third collapsed after workers started pouring concrete atop the structure, said Don Avila, a representative for the Los Angeles County Sanitation District.
"Workers who were on top were trying to get off but some did not make it," he said.
Although authorities used a crane to lift firefighters and equipment inside the tank, the rescue effort was hampered as search crews carefully made their way through a small mountain of unstable rubble.
Officials with Kiewitt Pacific could not immediately be reached for comment.
Man hospitalized with anthrax
The 63-year-old Lantana, Fla., man, whose name was not released, checked into the hospital on Tuesday. Tim O'Connor, representative for the Palm Beach County Health Department, said the case was likely to be fatal.
Anthrax has been developed by some countries as a possible biological weapon. But the disease can be contracted naturally. The bacterial spores can be found in soil and are often carried by livestock. Officials said the Florida victim was an avid outdoorsman.
Thompson said the most recent U.S. case of anthrax was earlier this year in Texas. But that case was not pulmonary anthrax — an especially lethal and rare form in which the disease settles in the lungs.
The man had recently traveled to North Carolina and became ill shortly after he returned, said Florida Lt. Gov. Frank Brogan. The incubation period for the disease can be
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — A businessman has been hospitalized in Florida with pulmonary anthrax, a highly lethal disease mentioned as a possible biological weapon. But U.S. Health Secretary Tommy Thompson said yesterday no evidence indicated the case was a result of terrorism.
The Associated Press
"This is an isolated case, and it's not contagious," Thompson said at a White House news conference.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the FBI are investigating.
Edward W. Said, the Distinguished Chair of Comparative Literature at Columbia University, will lead a seminar on "Orientalism: East-West Identities" at 10 a.m. today at room 2092 in the Dole Human Development Center.
Fears of an airborne chemical or biological attack were raised last month when it was learned that a group of Middle Eastern men — including one of the hijackers in the attack on the World Trade Center — had been asking a lot of questions about a crop-duster at an airfield in Belle Glade, which is about 40 miles from Lantana.
The men who visited the Belle Glade airfield had asked employees of a fertilizer company about the range of the airplane, how much it could haul in chemicals, how difficult it was to fly and how much fuel it could carry.
60 days.
The Florida patient was initially believed to have meningitis, but testing showed that it was pulmonary anthrax, officials said. The disease is treated with antibiotics.
Social creation of identities among scholar's seminar topics
Anthrax is a spore-forming bacterium that is especially virulent if inhaled. The disease causes pneumonia. A vaccine to prevent the spread of the disease is available.
All forms are rare,but the most recent cases
CAMPUS
One of Said's main areas of interest is in the social creation of identities, Bailey said. Said had written, for example, that the concept of "oriental" is mainly a Western notion. Bailey said that Said, in addition to being a renowned literary scholar, was also an expert on Palestinian and Middle East issues. While the event was planned months in advance, Bailey said current events would make Said's visit to the University even more timely and informative.
All forms are rare, but the most recent cases including ones in Texas and North Dakota have been so-called cutaneous cases resulting from handling animals. During the 20th century, only 18 cases of inhaled anthrax have been reported in the United States, the most recent in 1976.
Victor Bailey, Hall Center director and professor of history, said the seminar with Said was geared toward educating faculty and graduate students interested in Said's fields of research.
"He's up there with any other academic or intellectual speaker we could find," Bailey said.

Former version of KU mascot to appear on fund-raiser T-shirts
The University of Kansas has called its spirited Jayhawk mascot of 1941 to 1946 out of retirement to raise money for families of victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
The mascot will be pictured on T-shirts that can be purchased next week at the Kansas and Burge unions. Shirts cost $10, with proceeds going to the Families of Freedom Scholarship Fund.
Former President Bill Clinton and former U.S. Sen. Bob Dole, who attended the University in 1941, are the co-chairman of the fund, which will be used for scholarships for children and spouses of firefighters, police officers and victims of the attacks.
Todd Cohen, assistant director for University Relations, said the T-shirt fund-raiser was a great opportunity for University and Javawk fans to help.
"This is the first time this historic Jayhawk has been brought out of retirement since 1946," Cohen said.
The mascot was created in 1941 by the late Gene Williams, a KU graduate. The mascot has a determined stance and a contentious expression, and was dubbed the "Fighting Jayhawk."
Cohen said the smiling Jayhawk, which is still used today, reflected the change of a national mood from the war years to the post-war period.

Coming Out Day offers support, shows open-minded community
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
When Laura Hatwell "came out of the closet," it was more like she fell out of the closet and banged her head on the floor.
"But I'm so glad I did," said Hatwell, Stirling, Scotland, junior.
Hatwell said she disclosed her homosexuality to a small queer community in Stirling on National Coming Out Day, which falls on Oct. 11 each year.
"I actually didn't know it was Coming Out Day," Hatwell said. "Someone just told me later."
KU Queers and Allies will sponsor activities next week to publicize National Coming Out Day, said C.J. Snow, Lawrence freshman and co-director of the student organization.
"People need to know that if they choose this week to come out that they will find a flood of support from 'out-people' and other people who are going through the same thing this week." Snowsaid.
Vanessa Hays, Topeka sophmore and Queers and Allies member, said this amount of support may be lacking at other times of the year.
"We're doing all these social events to present an exciting, open community and an immediate network of support that they can join." Haws said.
National Coming Out Week events include a seminar about homophobia, an amateur drag show and a social dance at the
Hatwell said that community support was essential when taking the first step out of the closet.
Teepee Junction, U.S. Highways 24 and 40.
"My community back in Stirling became like my family. I don't think I would've survived without them." Hatwell said, especially because her parents were unsupportive.
Marcia Epstein, director of the Headquarters Counseling Center, said the center takes phone calls dealing with questions of sexuality all the time but no more than usual around National Coming Out Day.
She said that the Queers and Allies annual awareness campaign had a positive effect on the community.
"With affirmation activities, there's less reason for people to need our kind of support because they're getting it in a more public way." Erstein said.
Hays said that the Coming Out Week activities were meant to give closed individuals an excuse to openly acknowledge their sexuality.
Hatwell admitted to feeling more free since she came out.
"Denying a basic part of who you are is detrimental to your life and keeps you from being happy." Havs said.
"I'm out to everyone," she said. "There are no more secrets in my life, and that's the important thing."

Blood drive likely to reach goal
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
Students who want to donate blood on campus will have their last chance today.
The blood drive, sponsored by the American Red Cross and the Community Blood Center, will be at Allen Fieldhouse and Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall.
Judy Stewart, team supervisor at the Red Cross, said the goal for the blood drive was to receive 1,200 pints of blood between the two locations. Stewart said she was confident the goal would be reached by the end the day.
"Our goal each day was 100 donors, and we have gone over each day," she said.
Stewart said part of the reason the blood drive had been successful was the Sept. 11 tragedies.
"This is something that will make them feel good about contributing," Stewart said.
Stewart said the volunteers
also were responsible for the blood drive's success.
Linda Mah, donor room specialist collection supervisor for the Community Blood Center, said she was pleased with the amount of blood collected at McCollum Hall. She estimated about 125 people donated blood yesterday, and she had high expectations for today.
Kevin Parks, Bonner Springs sophomore, said he donated blood for the first time yesterday. He said he initially had no intention of donating blood, but his friends talked him into going with them.
Mah said she was thankful to see first-time donors during the week.
"We do hope to have a lot of donors come back in December and January because that is when we will need blood again." Mah said.

and I always get quacy around them." Parks said.
But he said he was pleased to give blood and planned to donate again.
Stewart said once the blood drive ended, the blood would be sent to local hospitals in the Topeka, Lawrence and Kansas City areas. The remaining blood will be shipped to other cities, depending on their needs.

NEED FOR PRAYER
Dear editor.
Prayer is a wonderful thing. It's a unifying and pure expression of love, kindness and the desire to do good for our fellow man. How could anyone disagree with prayer? Isn't that like disagreeing with love? Speaking openly and honestly about phrases like "under God" and "God bless America" is difficult for many nontheists; the risk of looking like a hate-monger is very real.
Diane Godfrey deserves much praise for her opinion column ("God and religion not needed for dealing with tragedy," Sept. 28) expressing her refusal to give up her agnosticism. There should be no mistake about it, refusing to pray is not an expression of hate, and questioning prayer is not a refusal to mourn. Expressions of hate arise when people expect us all to pray. Just as, in a "National Day of Prayer" America can express pure love and kindness for those killed and then declare war the same day, we know—like Diane Godfrey and her imaginary feasts as a little girl—that you can hope, wish and pray all you want, but unless you really take action, nothing happens.

CRITIQUE OF PROTESTERS
Dear editor.
I was disappointed to read Robert Chamberlain's column "An open letter to the protest community," Oct. 3) and find that his critique of the protesters was, for the most part, light and empty. Instead of addressing the issues behind their cause, he derided them for such trivial things as not coming up with their own songs or wearing different things.
A critique of the peace protesters is thoroughly justified, and it deserved more thought than Mr. Chamberlain gave it. Our country sits braced for the next attack from a group explicitly committed to the destruction of America.
We have been forced to arm our airports, ground our crop dusters, and prepare for the most evil and unthinkable acts ever imagined. And in the face of all of this, we have a group here in Lawrence with the nerve to tell us to sit quietly and discuss the psychology of the perpetrators of such monstrous actions. We are told to think about what America could have done to provoke its own attack, as if this was a legitimate political move from a government who just couldn't find the paper to write a letter.
Not only does this group defend pacifism by touting the morality behind the destruction of its own country — namely, anti-capitalism — but it does so in the name of "peace." If "peace" is the state of sitting on one's hands, resigning oneself to forever cleaning up after the wreckage of terrorists and mourning the loss of loved ones, then I unequivocally choose war.

This is not an emotional cry for revenge. This is a calm but urgent cry for true peace, which will never exist so long as these terrorist nations are allowed to continue.
PERSPECTIVE
Police officers should focus on more important offenses
Every day the Kansan has a section titled On the Record. It is a section that prints the crimes reported on campus. Every day it seems to be getting longer and longer and I don't think it will be too long before it has a table of contents attached to it. It is unfortunate that this many crimes occur on campus, but it is even more unfortunate that the police seem to be wasting their time on more minor offenses.
Speeding and parking tickets have long been part of the repertoire, but lately there has been a new one added.
Recently I read of 13 KU students who were issued citations for selling cups that could be used to consume a cereal malt beverage. Now to me, cereal malt beverage sounds like a recipe that you would see on the side of a Cocoa Puffs box, not something you can be issued a citation for. Undercover cops who were attending the parties busted the 13 students.
It's a real shame when students are getting issued citations for that type of charge, while other students are getting assaulted in parking lots and gas stations across the campus.
Commentary

First, there are lots of house parties every weekend, and there always will be no matter how many get busted. Obviously the same is true about theft and assault. They are always going to happen.
However, the time it takes for the police to stake out a party and send in undercover officers to issue and write out citations would be much better spent trying to cut down on the assaults, thefts and car damages.
I'm not saying that police should disregard parties all together. It just seems that when reading On the Record, this campus has enough broken taillights and smashed wind-shields to move the auto repair guys seven income tax brackets higher.
Assault and battery is a much more serious subject than the selling of cups
that could or could not be used to consume cereal malt beverages. Many victims of assault end up in the hospital and in addition to having to recover physically, they have to recover from the trauma of the actual event. Students at parties have the choice of whether they are going to buy a cup. Assault victims don't have a choice at all.
Rather than break out the radar gun to bust someone going 30 in a 20, or wait by the parking meters for the time to run out, the police should try to stop more serious crimes. They need to spend more time trying to stop assault, battery and theft and less time shopping for clothes and checking out the latest styles so that they know what to wear to fit in when they go undercover to bust a party.
Hopefully if this is done, the On the Record section of the Kansan will be quite small, not something that I will have to buy Cliffs Notes for.

PERSPECTIVE
Test anxiety comes without reason but is very real nonetheless
Sweaty palms and fingers shakily place my notebook into my bag. I know I've held out as long as I could, but now it's time to face the music. Today is the day that I am scheduled to take the first test of the semester. Whether I'm prepared, I don't know. But in a couple hours it'll all be over, and it's too late now to worry about it — so why am I so worried?
Tests are a bit more tricky. When a test is in progress, we no longer receive help from our peers — it's our wits against the wits of our teacher. Not only do we have to know the material we're being tested over, we're also required to be able to relay that information in the manner in which our teachers prefer.

I walk to class, reciting the memorized phrases and concepts in my mind, as I flash distracted smiles to passersby. Maybe I should have looked over my notes again, or reread that one part of that chapter I didn't quite grasp. I knew this day would come, then why didn't I make sure I was better prepared? By now, we've all pretty much confirmed the classes we're enrolled in, dropped those classes we don't want, and have our schedule set. Up until now, school was just fun and games. Sometimes we go to class, sometimes we don't. We take notes and doodle a bit, to try and stay awake. And class participation is a cinch—just listen to everyone else, reword what they say, and add some personal experience.
Commentary
And sure, we can psych ourselves out to believe that reading the highlighted phrases that students before us felt were necessary, is good enough. We can ask around and get a feel of how the other people are preparing for the test, hoping no one is prepared, so we can all just laugh it off, not worry about it, and hope for a curve. We can't all be flunked, right?
We can comfort ourselves in knowing we went to most of the class sessions, so are at least familiar with the material, and the test will act as a refresher. We can stay up all night, with our textbook open in front of us, while we stare at the television or talk the night away — that counts as studying, and I studied for hours! We can mentally prepare our guessing skills on multiple-choice questions. The answer is there, I know it is. ... With study guides, study sessions and study groups, we should feel like we're in good shape. But we usually don't.
There's always that flutter in our stomachs that never quite leaves. The furrowed brow, casting a
shadow over our overconfident smile. That question in the back of our minds, "Am I ready? Did I pay attention enough in class? Do I deserve a decent grade?" And of course, we could just suck it up, buckle down, and study.
But then, there's that what if—what if it's a really easy test, and any time spent studying would be wasted? Or there's the flip side: What if we study and still fail?
But excuses and what ifs won't get us anywhere. We are always afraid of the unknown. And the more we study, the more we know. I know it's always very tempting not to take studying seriously, but preparation is a part of school. It's a part of life. And usually, the test is never as bad as we think it will be. (Sometimes it's much worse, but not usually.)
We make some stupid mistakes, some lucky guesses — that's just the way it goes. At least when you study, you can justify your grade by saying you at least tried.
So in the mean time, study hard, and gook luck on your class exams. If you're fortunate enough to have already gotten the first one out of the way, have fun relaxing until midterms.

Speaker urges empathy, not hate
By Brent Briggeman Kansan staff writer
A Palestinian man dressed in formal attire once criticized Edward Said for leaning too much toward the West in his ideals.
Said's reply to the man was simple: "Why are you wearing a suit and tie? They are Western symbols, aren't they?"
Said had made his point. The line between Western and non-Western ideals and cultures is fading, he said.
Said told a crowd of more than 400 people last night at the Kansas Union Ballroom that understanding people of all nationalities and backgrounds was the only way to approach the kind of terrorist acts that have recently ravaged the United States.
"Muslims are no longer on the
fringe of the West, but in the heart," he said.
Said has taught humanities at Columbia University for the past 35 years. In that time, he's seen the study of humanities break from one class to specific classes specializing in Western and non-Western culture.
He cited the segregation of classes as one example of an "us versus them" dichotomy, which has led to hard feelings among members of opposing cultures. He said all cultures were made by men, which meant their core beliefs and principles were multifaceted but invariably similar.
"Clash of culture is a gimmick," he said. "It's no different than 'War of the Worlds.' I don't believe we have two cultures who are doomed to war."
Veronica de Jong, graduate teaching assistant of the Eastern
language and culture department, said the speech, sponsored by the Humanities Lecture Series, sent a message more people needed to hear.
He also stressed that discussion of the terrorists and their movement is not the same as condoning their act.
"It's not just students who need to hear this," de Jong said. "The media has been slowly changing its tone, but you still don't see the kind of discussion and understanding that you'd hope to see."
Said, who was born in Jerusalem and was once a member of the Palestinian parliament-inexile, asked that Americans realize that Osama bin Laden and his followers are an extremist group, much like the Branch Davidians and lim Jones followers.
Finally, Said told the crowd the end result he hoped would come

of the recent violence.

Play gives Haskell students a voice
By Leah Shaffer
Special to the Kansan
A specially commissioned play at the Lied Center last night exposed community members to Haskell Indian Nations University's perspective on the ongoing South Lawrence Trafficway controversy.
The play, Threads, Ethel Nickle's Little Acre, written by Bruce King, tells the story of Ethel, a woman who refuses to give up her land for a highway. In the play, Ethel's own brother-in-law pressures Ethel into giving up her land, and he refuses to acknowledge his own debt to his ancestors.
Threads closely mirrors the South Lawrence Trafficway controversy. The western leg of the
trafficway was completed several years ago, but a Haskell organization successfully stopped the completion of the project, which would have cut through sacred wetlands.
Now, however, the Kansas Department of Transportation and the city are moving ahead with a new plan to complete the eastern leg of the trafficway that would still affect the wetlands.
King's play was commissioned by Haskell's Thunderbird Theater to be performed in Lawrence. About 600 people attended the performance last night.
Tony Higheagle, Thunderbird Theater's technical director, said that the play gave Haskell students a voice on the issue of maintaining the land.
"It brings in the humor that is in Native-American culture that gets overlooked."
Justin Unger Overland Park senior
"I thought it was great," Higheagle said. "It touched on all issues."
Justin Unger, Overland Park senior, said the play showed a connection between the wetlands and local ancestry that Kansas Department of Transportation had overlooked.
The play was also filled with
humor, which surprised some of the audience.
"It brings in the humor that is in Native-American culture that gets overlooked," Unger said.
Avis Ballard, Haskell junior, said the play was funny, and it did a good job dealing with the themes of land and home.
The performance was part of the first year Civic Dialogue Project, a three-year project coordinated between the Lied Center and Haskell. The aim of the project is to begin a dialogue between Native Americans and others in the Lawrence community through the use of the arts.
Israel savs it is target of terrorist campaign
The Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS Responding to Arab claims that the Palestinians are victims of "modern terrorism," Israel told the U.N. General Assembly yesterday that it had been the victim of "an indiscriminate and suicidal terrorist campaign."
On the fourth day of a weeklong General Assembly debate on international terrorism, the definition of terrorism — and deciding
how to tackle it — surfaced again.
The 22-member Arab Group said Tuesday that it supported a U.N.-led effort to combat terrorism following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in the United States but also said it considered the Palestinian victims of "modern terrorism" and stressed their right to fight for independence.
Reiterating the Arab view yesterday, Iraq's U.N. Ambassador, Mohammed Al-Douri, accused Israel of carrying out "planned
Israel's U.N. Ambassador, Yehuda Lancry, countered that "this past year, Israel has been compelled to engage in legitimate self-defense against an indiscriminate and suicidal terrorist campaign that erupted in blatant violation of signed agreements and which has claimed hundreds of
assassinations" as part of a campaign of "organized terrorism against a whole population whose land was looted and whose rights were ignored."
innocent lives."
Lancry urged the United Nations to oppose any effort "to artificially distinguish between one kind of terror and another."
The year-old Mideast conflict has killed 665 Palestinians and 182 people on the Israeli side.
"Let us be clear: the indiscriminate murder of innocent civilians to advance political or religious objectives is terrorism, no matter how its apologists seek to label it," he said.
Muslims contend with mixed emotions
Arab Americans have experienced outrage, pride isolation
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — As Farooq Muhammad treated victims of the World Trade Center attack, the emergency medical technician and Muslim struggled with more than saving lives.
"Even as I was helping treat people from the service, I could see they were looking at me in a different way," he said. "I felt ashamed because Muslims had done this. I felt ashamed of my religion and I felt isolated."
An American of Pakistani descent, Muhammad is among an estimated 200 to 300 Muslims in the 13,000-member fire department. While they grieve for the more than 300 firefighters lost Sept. 11, they are also dealing with the fallout of the attack made in the name of Islam.
"It's a double whammy. As a human being, I'm outraged. As a Muslim, I feel the people who did this launched an attack on Islam," said Kevin James, a supervising fire marshal and president of the Islamic Society of Fire Department Personnel.
Muhammad, 26, was helping at the scene when the twin towers collapsed and was injured himself in the stampede away from the falling buildings. He has spent the last three weeks struggling with his feelings that morning.
"Looking back, I wish I hadn't felt that way. This is not Islamic. Islam doesn't teach this. Islam is as American as apple pie, maybe more so," he said, adding that since Sept. 11, he has vowed to learn more about Islam to better defend his religion against those who say it condones violence.
He agreed with the sentiments James expressed in this week's issue of "The Chief," a newsletter for fire department personnel.
"I am proud to be Muslim, just as I am proud to be a member of that elite fraternity of firefighters, EMTs, fire marshals and police officers, who risked and heroically gave their lives at the World Trade Center," James wrote.
After recounting the centuries-long history of Muslims in America, he declared: "We will not allow ourselves to be racially profiled or stigmatized in a way that threatens the dignity and freedoms of all Americans."
Muhammad said he felt relieved when, amid the chaos and suffocating debris, he found himself face to face with a Muslim colleague.
"It's hard to talk about my feelings, my religion, with most people," he said. "They just don't want to hear about Islam now."
The fellow EMT he ran into that day was Edris Bey, 42,a single father of five from Brooklyn.
"I don't know how we ended up next to each other that day, but I remember he said, 'If I'm going to die today, at least I'm going to die with a fellow Muslim.' Bey said. "I was scared. I was just thinking I don't want to die. These attacks have set Islam back by years."
Bey, who said he was a militant Muslim when he was younger, had only praise for colleagues at his station.
"That day it was unbelievable. When I came to the station there was nothing but love for me," said Bey, the only Muslim at his fire station. "My colleagues were hugging me and kissing me and crying. They thought I'd been killed because I was there when building two hit the ground."
James also stressed the cohesiveness of the department; "You always have knuckle-heads, but this is a brotherhood."
The fire department does not have a Muslim chaplain. The police department has one, as do all branches of the U.S. military. For more than six months, Imam Muhammad Abdulmalik has been acting as a spiritual adviser to the Islamic Society of Fire Department Personnel.
At least one Muslim, Salman Hamdani, a police cadet working on an emergency medical service team, is missing following the Sept. 11 attacks.

Racing: Dragsters gather at Heartland Park
FRIDAY,OCT.5,2001

money to improve the quality of their cars. He went straight to the track when he got there, but he said people were comparing and tinkering with cars in a preparatory area near the track. Weigel said he hadn't done anything special to improve the speed of his car, a Porsche 944. But he has considered buying a faster car in the future.
Steve Bruce, general manager of Steve Bruce Race Cars, 9201 2/E. 28th St., said several things could be added to a car to enhance its performance.
Yesterday, Bruce was working on the car of Jerry Yeoman, professional race car driver, to enhance the performance of his race car, a Pontiac Grand Am.
Installing a bigger motor would definitely give a car more power and speed, he said. Yeoman said that his engine had almost eight times the horsepower of a factory engine.
Two additional ways to add speed are to use nitrous oxide or computer chips that change the shift points and fuel flow of a car.
"Superchips are the least expensive thing you can do to enhance the car." Yeoman said.
Bruce said that motors, computer chips and nitrous oxide, as well as other performance enhancing devices, could be ordered through catalogs and delivered to any house.
When looking for a car to drag race, Bruce recommended a Ford Mustang.
"The Mustang is one of the fastest cars right out of the box," he said.
Weigel agreed, saying that he raced against some Mustang Cobras and noticed how fast they were on the track.
Yeoman said that Hondas and Toyotaes were the best foreign cars to race.
"You definitely want something little and aerodynamic," Bruce said, adding that a manual transmission often was faster than an automatic.
Although Bruce and Yeoman said they didn't condone street racing, they said drag racing on a track could be a lot of fun if certain safety precautions were taken.
Wearing a helmet approved for racing is the No. 1 safety precaution.
Bruce said that most catalogs
offered helmets that provided good protection in an accident for about $150.
Seat belts are another safety device to consider. Most people who race at Heartland Park have factory cars with factory seat belts. Bruce said five-harness belts, like the ones used in professional race cars, should be installed to provide the most protection.
But having fun and being competitive were the most important part of racing. Bruce and Yeoman said.
"There's definitely a subculture of racing there," Weigel said. "It's a bunch of kids having a lot of fun."

Highway planners broke ground in 1994 and completed the first nine miles of the trafficway, extending to the 3400 block of Iowa Street. But members of the Wetlands Preservation Organization, which is made up of Haskell students, filed a lawsuit two years ago, which halted the construction of the eastern leg.
Rees said KDOT would do whatever was needed to comply with laws concerning the wetlands. He said he wasn't sure if any legal challenges would result from 32nd Street gaining approval.
KDOT and Baker University are working on plans to convert some of KDOT's land into wetlands along the proposed 32nd Street route for Baker to oversee.
KDOT and the university are investigating how much money would be needed to build a 16,250-square-feet wetlands learning center, Rees said. He said the center was slated to be built near 31st Street, west of Louisiana Street.
Scott McKenzie, Salina junior and KU Environs member, said the task force had made the wrong decision.
"I think it's disastrous for the wetlands," McKenzie said. "The wetlands are a critical environmental area."
Neither Baker University officials nor the Wetlands Preservation Organization could be reached for comment yesterday.

Lawrence man creates winning pro stock cars
By Courtney Craigmile Kansah staff writer
International Hot Rod Association racer Jerry Yeoman didn't have much luck in drag racing until he met Lawrence resident Steve Bruce.
Bruce, general manager of Steve Bruce Auto Racing, 920 1/2 E. 28th St, has since helped Yeoman win three races and set a world record with a car they built together.

Bruce first approached Yeoman at a race.
Bruce first approached Yeoman at a race. "I told him I could build him a better car than the one he had," he said.
The two have been working together ever since.
Bruce and Yeoman, both experienced racecar drivers, have built two vehicles in the last five years. Yesterday they finished construction on a 2001 Grand Am, a pro stock car that they built from scratch.
Yeoman said he started street racing as a kid
"I just grew up with it," he said. "You won one race, and then tried harder to win another. You worked on your car to make it better, and then you'd win even more."
Now, racing is a way of life for him.

Bundle of joy awaits player
Holloman, is a 6-foot-3, 290-pound senior defensive tackle for the Kansas football team. He's a big man. He has big shoulder pads, wears big clothes and has big shoes. Generally, he likes things big.
But right now the only thing that can make this giant smile is something tiny, about the size of a football — a baby girl.
Within the next two weeks, his wife, Erika, is expected to give birth to a daughter, and she'll be arriving just in time.
Her daddy needs her just as much as she needs him right now.
Erika gave birth to a daughter, Nia last November. It was the happiest moment of Holloman's life, and he cried with joy as doctors handed him his little miracle.
Nia lived every day in a hospital incubator as doctors battled to help her overcome complications caused by Down syndrome, but it wasn't enough to save her.
Nia died 48 days later, and Holloman spiraled into sadness. He looked at pictures of Nia, he thought about her constantly and he cried a lot.
He missed the baby girl he held only three times. He loved her, and he wanted to protect her and care for her just like his mother cared for him.
So was his motivation.
But she was gone.
He stopped going to class and stopped playing football. He lost focus and lived in sorrow and seclusion.
Late last spring he missed his teammates, missed the smell of the locker room and missed learning.
He overcame his sadness and returned to the classroom. He improved his grades and found the courage to step back onto the football field.
But he won't play tomorrow against Texas Tech because another blow struck.
The former Junior College All-American at Garden City Community College has started all three games this year for the Jayhawks and has 15 tackles in three games this season, nearly surpassing the 21 he had in 10 games last year.
Holloman's mother, Bernice Bush,
passed away on Saturday after having a
heart attack last Monday in Wichita
The woman who raised him and 11 brothers and sisters in a small Wichita home died, and Holloman will be at her funeral this weekend.
Now he hurts again, but happier days are coming.
His new baby girl is on the way, and she will bring joy back to Holloman's life. What a perfect gift at the perfect time.
Holloman has already lost a daughter, but that just showed him how much he wanted to be a father. He lost his mother, but she showed him how to love children and give them the things they need to succeed.
Now it's his turn.
Wristen is a Leawood senior in journalism.

Kansas plans to blitz against pass-happy Texas Tech team
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
Air shows have become a weekly occurrence in Lubbock, Texas, but that hasn't always been the case.
When Mike Leach took the coaching job at Texas Tech last season, he turned one of the Big 12 Conference's best rushing offenses into the league's most pass-happy unit.
Leach has been able to make the transition work because of two key players: quarterback Cliff Kingsbury and running back Ricky Williams.
Kingsbury, a 6-foot-4 junior, has averaged more than 50 pass attempts per game and is the composed leader of the offense.
"He has great field awareness," said Tom Hayes, Kansas defensive coordinator. "You can just tell he has a lot of experience."
Kingsbury leads the nation with 35 completions per game and his 139.1 quarterback rating is at the top of the conference. Of the nation's top 50 quarterbacks in number of completions, Kingsbury is the only one who has averaged less than 10 yards per completion.
The reason for the low yardage is that the Red Raiders throw short passes to Williams out of the backfield.
With 29 catches in three games, the fast, shifty back is second in the country in receptions-per-game.
Kansas safety Jamarel Bryant said the defense was concerned about Williams.
"We'll key on him wherever he goes," Bryant said. "He's just a good player. He does everything for their offense."
In addition to leading the team in receptions and receiving yards, Williams has amassed 191 yards rushing, more than the top two Kansas rushers combined. He is the last remnant of the Texas Tech running teams and was among the nation's leaders in 1998 when he rushed for 1,582 yards as a sophomore.
It looked as though Williams would be the third Texas Tech back to run for more than 4,000 career yards since 1986, but injuries and a different scheme have pushed Williams into a new role.
He quickly adapted to his role last year, catching seven passes and carrying 15 times for a total of 120 yards in the Red Raiders' 45-39 win against the Jocks in Lawrence.
Even though the Texas Tech passing game burned Kansas last year for 409 yards, Kansas coach Terry Allen said the addition of Hayes changed Kansas' approach.
Hayes said the game plan would be to rush Kingsbury, forcing him to throw the ball no more than two or three yards downfield.
From there, Hayes said, the defensive backs would have to make tackles, a task senior Andrew Davison is ready to accept.
"We've got to be ready for the challenge," said Davison, a three-year starter at cornerback. "We know they're going to make some plays, but we've going to prevent the big plays."
'Hawks look for fresh start
Contact Briggeman at 864-4858
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
Instead, the team has taken the last 13 days to get rejuvenated to play the rest of its season.
The Kansas football team has not spent the last two weeks dwelling on what exactly went wrong in its second-half meltdown against Colorado on Sept. 22.
A win tomorrow against Texas Tech would create an even 2-2 slate for the Jayhawks before they march into their most difficult stretch of the season.
And Kansas coach Terry Allen said he had seen a fire in his club since its second loss. He sees a team prepared to play against an opponent it thinks it can beat.
"It's good to be playing football." Allen said. "It's a game they think they can win, and they're excited to play."
Winning on the road has been difficult for Kansas — it has a 1-10 record away from Memorial Stadium in the past two seasons.
But the time off has allowed the
Kansas offense to get more comfortable with its diversified approach.
After operating from a one-back, no-huddle look in its first two games, the Jayhawks used more two-tight end and fullback formations to bolster its running attack.
An extra blocker on the line and another in the backfield helped, allowing starting running back Reggie Duncan to gain 70 yards, by far his largest output of the season.
Offensive coordinator Rip Scherer said he had intended on using the running game to move the football against Texas Tech.
Texas Tech has averaged more than 50 passes a game and has usually lined up with four wide receivers to complement junior quarterback Kliff Kingsburv.
"You can't be one-dimensional," Scherer said. "You've got to run the football to be productive."
A fifth weapon, Red Raider running back Ricky Williams, is Texas Tech's leading receiver.
Kansas defensive coordinator Tom Hayes knew that his defense would have its hands full.
Hayes said a key to stopping Texas Tech was to rotate in fresh defenders.
"They present a lot of challenges," Hayes said. "You can get gassed up front if you are not mixing your guys in there. And when they put wide receivers on the field, there are, at times, when we are going to match them with more defensive backs."
Hayes said junior safety Matt Jordan and senior cornerback Quincy Roe would be the extra defenders in passing-down situations.
Senior linebacker Algie Atkinson said he thought that this game would be the season's turning point.
"It's a big game for our program because a loss here would set us up to have to beat some good teams like a Kansas State or Nebraska on our schedule," Atkinson said.
Kansas is 0-7 all-time against Texas Tech.

Volleyball team to face equal foe
The Texas Tech volleyball team will try to overcome its recent difficulties on the road when the Red Raiders visit Kansas at 7 p.m. tomorrow at the Horeisi Family Athletic Center.
By Steve Laurenzo Kansan sportswriter
The Red Raiders have lost both of their Big 12 Conference road games to
Missouri and Colorado. Playing at home in Lubbock, Texas, Texas Tech (8-4, 2-2) defeated No. 25 Kansas State on Sept. 22, and swept Iowa State on Wednesday.
Kansas coach Ray Bechard said Kansas (11-4, 2-4) and Texas Tech were evenly matched.
"It'll be two enthusiastic groups
trying to play well and come away with a win." Bechard said. "Tech will come in extremely motivated. It's a match both opponents would like to win in order to move up."

Rantala:named to SoccerBuzz magazine's elite team
She is the first Kansas player to receive the honor.
"Hilla deserves it," said coach Mark Francis. "She's had a great season."
Rantala posted a school record of four assists in Kansas' 5-3 victory against the Cowboys last Sunday. She added another assist in the Jayhawk's upset 2-0 victory against Oklahoma a week ago.
Soccer Buzz, an online magazine devoted to women's collegiate soccer, selects players each week to make up the nationwide elite team. No other Big 12 Conference player made this week's list.
"That's a great honor for her and for our program," Francis said. "They only pick 11 players in the country, and for someone from Kansas to get recognition, is awesome."
Rantala said that people were starting to take notice of the Jahawks' success on

Today's Birthday (Oct. 5).
Today's Birthday (Oct. 5).
You'll know if you've found your soul mate this year. He or she will be ready, willing and able to work with you toward a long-term goal. Everybody loves candlelight dinners and honeymoon vacations, but that's not what true love is about. True love is about the long haul.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 5.
Enjoy your work, and you'll be handsomely rewarded. Don't brag about what you're earning. It's more likely to cause jealousy rather than admiration. Keep your financial affairs to yourself.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 7.
This is not a good day to fight City Hall. If you're working for somebody else, don't ask for a raise, either. If you have your own business, don't raise your rates. Offer to do something for free or have a sale. People may be grumpy.
Take care of them.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 6.
Has something been bothering you lately?
Something you're keeping a secret? It's not easy for you to do that, but it can be wise. Keep a confidence with which you've been entrusted. It matters a lot to the other person.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 6.
Something you discover while working can give you more leisure time. It's not cheating to do the job an easier way. You could hire somebody else to do it, but don't hire the friends you want to take with you.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 7.
Yesterday's conditions are still in effect. If you pay attention, you can recover the ball when your competition fumbles. You're not out to trip this other person or make him look bad. Just stand back, and he'll do it all by himself.
R
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is an 8.
Your passions may be stirred. Let it happen.
Afraid you'll do something crazy like quit your job and head for the hills? You won't. But you and your sweetheart can dream, and you can plan for whatever you can imagine.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 6.
Every so often you get the urge to sort and file.
While you're at it, figure out how much you owe, and set up a budget to pay it all off. Doing that will feel even better than playing with that new toy you're considering.

Now you're the one who's advising caution and with good reason. Meanwhile, you're also learning quickly, asking your friends for advice and gathering data. Continue to move slowly in public but quickly behind the scenes.
Ballet
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is an 8.
Time for a little housecleaning. Are some of your dreams a little unrealistic? Are some of your fears slowing you down? Dump the fears, and the dreams become more realistic.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 5.
You continue to encounter resistance. Instead of being frustrated, be thankful. This is causing you to become even more creative. If it weren't for challenges, you would have died of boredom long ago.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 7.
Aromatic luncheon in a fancy place would be luxurious and fun. Invite a loved one who hardly ever goes there but would appreciate the ambiance. Later, you'll be more involved with work. Besides, dinner is more expensive.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 5.
Does it seem like all the work for the week piled up at the very last moment? It wouldn't have if everything had gone according to schedule.
It's not your fault it didn't. The delays are more likely because of technical breakdowns that may still be occurring. Stay loose.

Season opener includes dip in lake for swimmers
By Jeremy Giles Kansan sportswriter
Taking to the open water, the Kansas swim team will open its fall season this weekend.
The Jayhawks will hit the pool at 7 tonight for the weekend's first meet with the Southern Illinois Salukis in Carbondale, Ill.
Then both teams will participate in the Lake Race, a rare open-water competition, at 10 a.m. tomorrow.
Junior Gwen Haley, last season's most valuable player, said she was eager to get the season under way.
The Jayhawks have competed against the Salukis annually since the 1981-82 season. Kansas is 20-1 in the series. The Jayhawks won last year, 135-97, in Robinson Center.
The jahawks have not been defeated in any of those meetings.
The annual Lake Race against Southern Illinois began in 1994.
This year's race is expected to be about three kilometers in length, but Coach Cathy Burgess said she was confident in her team.
"One of our strengths is distance swimming, so
"I believe that our team is very well rounded in every event as well as having depth."

we're ready for the Lake Race," Burgess said. "The race is a lot of fun, and it gets the ladies out of the pool."
In preparation for the Lake Race, the team has been training at Clinton Lake two to three times a week since Labor Day. Burgess said training for the race had gotten the swimmers into shape.
"Lake training benefits the swimmers aerobically because they are swimming continuously for an extended period of time," she said.
The Jayhawks will play host to the annual Crimson and Blue meet at 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 12. The intrasquad meet will be at the pool in Robinson Center and is free to the public.

Kansas has had recent success at the Hoosier
By Jason Hwang Kansan sportswriter
After last weekend's success at the Hurricane Invitational, the Kansas tennis team is set to play today in the Hoosier Classic in Bloomington, Ind. Other competitors are Louisiana State, Missouri, Iowa and host. Indiana.
Coach Kilmeny Waterman said that despite the limited amount of practice, the team would be prepared for play in Bloomington because of strong play at last weekend's tournament.
"Just having that amount of match play last weekend, win or lose, is going to help them this weekend," Waterman said. "We've only had a couple days on the practice court. I think by having recent competition, they'll just be more ready."
Classic. Last year, senior Cheryl Mallaiah placed second in singles, while sophomore Courtney Steinbock took fourth. In doubles, Steinbock and sophomore Emily Haylock finished fifth and former teammates Lisa Mallaiah and Monica Sekulov finished third.
Cheryl Malliaah is fresh off a 3-1 singles record after last weekend's season opener in Tulsa, Okla. This includes her third win, which lasted three hours. Malliaah said she thought she could play well this weekend.
"I need to play with confidence and with momentum in each match," Mallaiah said. "I just relax out there, stay focused and have fun. If I do all these, I'll do well."

Soccer team to journey north
By Ryan Wood
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas soccer team looks to remain perfect in conference play as it hits the road to take on Iowa State and Nebraska this weekend.
The Jayhawks, 6-2 and 2-0 in the Big 12 Conference, travel to Ames, Iowa, today to play Iowa State. The Cyclones are 3-4 and 1-0 in Big 12. Their lone conference game was a 2-1 overtime victory against Baylor on Sept. 30.
"We need to go win (today's) game first," said coach Mark Francis. "We need to take it one game at a time."
Francis may have reason to be concerned about his team looking ahead. Sunday's game at No. 5 Nebraska is perhaps its toughest game of the season. The Cornhuskers are 6-1 overall and 1-0 in conference play. Their lone loss of the season was to No. 4 Notre Dame in South Bend, Ind., on Sept. 25.
Kansas is winless in seven tries against Nebraska in the team's brief history. The teams met last year in the Big 12 tournament with the Corn-
"Nebraska is very good," Francis said. "Playing at their place, probably nobody expects us to win. I like those odds. That gives us absolutely nothing to lose."
huskers prevailing 4-0.
"We're going to have to play really good," she said. "We're going to have to play as good as we played against Oklahoma."
Senior forward Hilla Rantala said that to come home with two victories would require the Jayhawks to be on top of their game.
Despite the huge challenge that awaits the Jayhawks on Sunday, Francis said concentrating on today's match first was important.
Nebraska is the defending Big 12 champion. It had an impressive 22-2 record last season and returns eight starters.
"We need to show up to play Iowa State," Francis said. "That's the first game. We need to take care of that, and then go from there."

Rickey Henderson surpasses Cobb's career runs record
SAN DIEGO — Rickey Henderson set baseball's career runs record at 2,246 yesterday, taking sole possession of the record he briefly shared with Ty Cobb.
He did it in dramatic fashion, hitting a home run off the top of the left-field fence with one out in the third inning of San Diego's game against Los Angeles.
True to his word, Henderson slid across home plate and set the record. Smiling as he rounded third, Henderson motioned for his teammates to leave enough room for a feet-first slide. He then popped up and was mobbed by his teammates.
Henderson was presented with a replica of home plate by Tony Gwynn.
The homer was Henderson's 2,998th career hit.
Henderson tied Cobb's 73-year-old record of 2,245 runs on Wednesday night when he raced around from first base and scored on Ryan Klesko's two run double down the right-field line in the third inning against the Dodgers.

World Cup qualifying match postponed after plane crash
ZURICH, Switzerland — The World Cup qualifier between Israel and Austria was postponed yesterday by soccer's governing body, citing the crash of a charter flight from Tel Aviv.
Joseph Blatter, president of FIFA, the sport's ruling body, said the "tragic event" forced the federation's emergency committee to put off Sunday's scheduled match in Tel Aviv.
No makeup date was announced immediately.
The game will determine which team advances to a playoff against Turkey for a spot in the World Cup. Austria (4-1-2) is in second place in Group 7, and Israel (3-2-2) is third. First-place Spain already clinched a berth in next year's tournament.
On Monday, FIFA denied Austria's request to move the match because of security fears. The next day, nine Austrian players said they wouldn't go to the game.
A Russian chartered airliner heading from Israel to Siberia exploded yesterday and crashed off the Black Sea coast with at least 76 people on board.
U. S. officials said a missile fired during a military training exercise in Ukraine appeared to have accidentally brought down the plane. Ukraine denied that theory, with a Defense Ministry representative saying that all the missiles fired in the exercise hit their proper targets and that no evidence indicated a civilian plane entered the training area.

Despite her stellar performance, Jacobson was disappointed.
Jacobson's has been more of an offensive threat in the Jayhawks' last four games than she had been all season.
Jacobson led the Jayhawks in kills in three of their last four matches.
She hadn't lead the Jayhawks in kills in
any other matches this season.
The Jayhawks will be looking to avoid a season-long three-match losing streak with a win against the Red Raiders tomorrow.

JAY'S EVOLUTION LINE...
'West Wing' imitates real life
Last-minute script illuminates recent U.S. devastation
By Frazier Moore AP television writer
NEW YORK — It came with no easy answers.
But Wednesday's The West Wing did the next best thing: In an hour of absorbing drama, it thoughtfully confronted questions and fears the nation is now learning to live with.
Aaron Sorkin, the NBC series' creator-producer, pulled off a remarkable, even unprecedented feat by writing and filming this episode, start to finish, in the three weeks since the Sept. 11 devastation at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
Rushed through production yet fully up to West Wing standards, the program took the form of a dramatic dialectic clearly meant to illuminate, not exploit, a real-life tragedy. It displaced the season debut, now set to air Oct. 10, which resumes last season's ongoing story as an embattled Bartlet decides to seek a second term.
Even though the events that inspired this special episode were never addressed, nor when it might have taken place ever specified, viewers found the Bartlet White House gripped in all-too-familiar crisis mode: Word of a security breach has erupted. It's the fifth in three weeks.
Suddenly, the White House was in a lockdown. No one knew what might happen next. And, in an accident of timing, Josh Lyman, deputy chief of staff, was stuck in the White House cafeteria with a group of touring high school students.
"So, why is everybody trying to kill us?" one student asked him, articulating worry any West Wing viewer could relate to.
Intercut with this impromptu seminar was harsh questioning of a suspect — an Arab-American and administration insider — by chief of staff Leo McGarry (John Spencer).
The man, swiftly nabbed and highly suspicious, turned out to be innocent. The real culprit would be in custody by show's end.
No death, no destruction problem solved. But, really, nothing was resolved—just put off for another day.
So what can anyone do about the terrorists around the world?
"You want to get these people?" Lyman (Bradley Whitford) asked the students during the hours-long lockdown. Embrace pluralism, he said.

The enigma machine
KC-based alt-rock quartet Shiner returns to form with 'The Egg'
SANTA FE
By Geoff Harkness
SHINER'S ALLEN EPLEY, right, is backed by bassist Paul Malinowski.
gharkness@ljworld.com
Allen Epley is here to shatter myths. The Shiner singer-guitarist — one of the area's most prominent frontmen during the early '90s — is quick to blast holes in the theory that there ever was a "golden age" of local music in the first place.
"I think the myth of that time was bigger than it actually was," Epley says during a recent interview. "KC was supposed to break out as the next big thing after Minneapolis or Seattle or Austin or wherever the scene was. And then it didn't materialize."
The aftershocks of that let-down are still being felt around the area, according to Epley, who insists that music fans should keep their collective chins up when it comes to hometown pride.
"Every town, when we go (on the road), thinks that their
town sucks the most," he adds. "It's inevitable, unless you live in New York or Chicago. I honestly don't think the people and the band's in town know how good it is in KC. Because out-of-town, they
do know. They go, 'What the (expletive) is in the water in KC; what are you guys doing?' There's a million bands around here, and if you really break it down per capita there's a lot of great bands in this town — younger bands, too. The main zenith of the Kansas City scene has yet to be."
Maybe Shiner can help. With the recent release of its fourth effort, "The Egg," and a handful of high-profile gigs already booked, the band is looking to have a banner year. Though the group probably won't be accepting gold sales awards anytime soon, it remains one of the area's most

acclaimed acts, a high-energy live group with a small-but-devoted fanbase. For now, that's probably more than enough.
- Shiner frontman Allen Epley
Emocore excellence
Shiner's first CD, 1995's "Splay," was recorded and mixed in only five days — and it came across that way. A murky sound, combined with a bit too much of the then-trio's early math-rock leanings, made for a fairly inauspicious debut, one that Epley and company are happy to forget.
"I still cringe at several points on every record," the singer-guitarist says. "I generally have the same reservations about each record. I don't think 'Splay's' recorded great."
Determined to get it right the second time around, the trio more than made up for 'Splay's' shortcomings with 1997's "Lula Divinia," an album that perfectly balanced Shin-
er's alt-rock and hard-rock influences. Tim Dow's geometrical drumming and Paul Malinowski's pummeling bass laid a foundation for Epley's torn jeans riffage and tenebrous
vocals, sounding like a group that knew exactly where it was going. That sense of confidence, combined with Epley's knack for obsessive wordplay, got the band a fair amount of local attention. Unfortunately, songs like "Semper Fi,"where the singer slurred his hellish lyrics across a telephone wire, were compressed with just enough distortion-pedal angst to get the band branded with the emo stamp.
"It's so funny that we've been tagged as an emo band," Epley says. "To me, emo was always Sunny Day Real Estate and stuff like that. When The Get Up Kids began to kind of define it, I was like, 'Oh, that's
emo?' I just called it pop. But I can't worry about what people are gonna call us. I saw one of our records on eBay the other day that said, 'emocore excellence! We've been called so much, and none of it has ever really affected us. But it's interesting to me that we've been lumped into an emo kind of thing."
No star
After the departure of Dow, Shiner was reconfigured as a four-piece, adding guitarist Josh Newton and former Molly McGuire drummer Jason Gerken to the fold.
Gerken's drumming eliminated some of the band's overt number crunching, and the addition of Newton brought a beefy new element to Shiner's sound. Like Bruce Banner turning into the Hulk, Shiner morphed from workaday to monstrous.
"Adding Josh into the whole mix has been the real liberating thing," Epley says. "He's been the one who's really liberated our thoughts as far as what we can do. His background in music and what he does and the way he

ONWARD CRISPIN GLOVER:
THE FURTHER AND THE FASTER
Thompson make a formidable unit, crafting a sound that's equal parts power pop and emo. The catchy garage slop of "Weighttr" sets the stage for the playful sonic suckerpunches found on "Cherry." Even better is "Action," not a raucous party life shout-out as the title implies, but a deliriously catchy, sweetfully melodic damn-near-perfect number that's worth the price of admission alone. "Action" indicates where OCG could go, presuming it can keep its current lineup intact. Rather than relying on power and attitude to make its point – as it does for much of the album – the focus here is on conveying atmosphere and emotion, setting a tone the way a cinematographer might. "Laughing Dog" and "Hint" use a similar strategy, with slightly less-promising results. "Marshall, Will and Holly" follows a Get Up Kids blueprint with a bit too much devotion, and awayaways like "The Cut" are saved only by Johnson's riveting shotgun style. Surprisingly, what should be the worst moment of "Further" – the obligatory wacked-out, 22-minute hidden track – turns out to be one of its best. A single eerie mantra repeated ad nauseam (which "disappears" after two and 1/2 minutes, resurfacing 10 minutes later with a bunch of
added effects), the song seems custom-designed to annoy. Instead, it truly captivates, a final kernel of evidence supporting the theory that OCG has more up its musical sleeve than it might be letting on. With any luck, the band can stay together
long enough and gain the necessary confidence to continue following its muse wherever it may lead.
Mylin Brimm "Cherish Life"
Though indie bands often are worshipped for low-budget
productions and DYI ethics, there's another group of overlooked artists espousing similar values. Like their rock counterparts, these musicians can be found in bedroom and basement studios in nearly every county in the country. They also put out homemade
CDs, unable to afford the big budget studio sessions that even midlevel bands enjoy. Tri State Clicc is one such entity, three musicians in as many states who typically work
on tracks via the Internet. With an approach like that, it's no surprise the trio has built on audience online, using mp3.com's Web site as a sounding board for their wares. Ludicrously prolific, the Clicc has packed the site with tracks, both as solo artists and as a group. Last year the band compiled some of the more popular numbers for a CD, "Dead End Blues." Mixing the rapid-fire rapping of MCs Bilistic and Swoop over Mylin Brimm's soulful crooning, "Dead End" proved a highly
engaging start, and earlier this year, the trio returned with a follow-up, "Passion & Rage." On "Cherish Life," Brimm steps away from the Clicc's gritty urban storytelling for just over 40 minutes of straightforward soul. Though Brimm comfortably fits into the gaggle of neo-soul singers that have been around since Keith Sweat's first perspiration, there's not a single R&B novelty here - no insipid thong songs or booty calls. Brimm's forte is gospel-tinted balladry, and he keeps the tempos slow and the lights low throughout, crafting a mood that Usher and his ilk simply can't maintain for a whole album. Brimm wrote nearly all the songs on "Cherish," with Bilistic manning the mixing boards, as he does for most of the Tri State material. There's always a hint of melancholy in Bilistic and Brimm's collaborations, a faint air of sadness imbued even in their upbeat numbers. On numbers like "Shadows of Life," where Brimm duets with himself, the darkness is ominous and overt. On the title track, Bilistic throws in a couple uplifting verses, cropping up again near the end of 'Just to
mylin brimm
CHERISH LIFE
Hear Your Voice Again,"
offering a welcome dose of energy, tethered with urban angst. The sultry D'Angeloesque grind of "Just Met" finds Brimm breaking form and trying on new musical hats,a strategy that works exquisitely here.At times though, Brimm's no-budget production is almost too much to bear. The cheesed out Casio horns of "Music & Me" overshadow what might've been an otherwise powerful statement. It would be interesting to hear how Brinnm would sound with a real band behind him. For now, fans of the most soulful singer on the Kansas University campus will have to dig into the computer grooves of his solo debut.

- Allen Epley on 'Starless.'
"I honestly think we over-
fect."
"Starless" (like "Lula") was released by indie label Owned and Operated. Though Epley was unhappy with the label's distribution company, he's quick to credit the organization with rescuing the band.
"They gave us a hand up at that time," he says.
"We wouldn't be here if they hadn't; they saved our lives. When they got us out of the water, after they gave us CPR, they weren't able to get us running again, but we were
able to get us running again on our own."
Back to the 'Egg'
Shiner hit the ground running when it convened in Epley's basement to record the 11 tracks that comprise "The Egg." Recorded in nine days and mixed in six, the album marks a new chapter in the band's history.
"It's the best thing we've done as a band with any of the lineups," Epley affirms. "It's a pretty good reflection of where we're at, or where we were at a year ago when we began writing. We love it. It's weird because so often somebody hates it in the band, or somebody doesn't like some of it. But we were all like, 'Hev!'"
Though Shiner has never been a group that resorted to lighter-lofting choruses in order to sell a few more CDs, Epley isn't afraid of making music that appeals to a variety of fans.
"We're not trying to be all things to all people, but kind of," he says. "We have a style, but we also don't want to just do one thing so much. Our
crowd is a mishmash of people. It's people who like Tricky and people who like Creed and people who like The Promise Ring. It's a pretty diverse unit of people, which I'm OK with. I'm OK with us being an enigma to some

Shiner's crowd also consists of people who like Jawbox, Hum and the hundreds of other mid-level acts with whom the quartet's shared stages. Currently, Shiner is preparing for a Midwest jaunt, opening for indie it-band Death Cab For Cutie.
- Allen Epley
"I was a little concerned that it might be too much of an odd matchup for the crowd,
record. It's pretty rockin, actually."
In November, Shiner will travel abroad for its first European tour, a four-1/2 week stint back-to-back shows with no days off in-between. Though Epley has his reservations about flying at a time like this, he's focusing on the positives aspects of a dream gig.
"Since the attacks, we're all a little weirded out about the safety of everything," he says. "But we're gonna go, we're gonna tear it up, we're gonna have a great time."

Rebel without a cause
L.A.'s Black Rebel Motorcycle Club strips its gears after months on the road
WALKING DEAD
By Geoff Harkness
BLACK REBEL MOTORCYCLE CLUB got its name from Marlon Brando's '50s biker flick, "The Wild One."
qharkness@ljworld.com
Robert Turner has been on tour a little too long.
"We're kind of doing the insane route right now," he murmurs sleepily from a static-ridden cell phone. "Everyone keeps saying we're crazy ... and it's really funny at first but then there's a side that is actual madness to it. And it's not left with a chuckle and all that; you're actually in it. So we feel like we're just going further than any other band in this weird way, and you've gotta really use that high to keep going. That's the only reason to do it right now. Everything else is gone"
Turner and his band, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, have been on the road continuously since the April release of their self-produced debut album, "B.R.M.C." After months of living in a van, sleeping on floors and playing nearly every night, things have started becoming surreal. Bored with their usual sets, the band members have taken to the art of onstage improvisation, inventing material as they go.
Pay to play
"The rules are getting a lot less stringent," Turner says. "Everything's created on the spot. We're writing songs at shows now. It's really nice to get up on a stage and start writing a song on the spot. It doesn't always work out that well, but it's really inspired and you can take the energy from people and go that much further."
BRMC — which took its name from Marlon Brando's classic biker film "The Wild One" — got its start in San Francisco three years ago, when guitarist-vocalist Peter Turner and bassist Hayes recruited U.K.-born drummer Nick Jago from the local music scene. The trio immediately relocated to Los Angeles, taking up residence at the lowkey Silverlake Lounge. With a
little scheming, the band was able to secure other gigs around the city without falling prey to the Sunset Strip's notorious pay-to-play scams.
"I don't think we ever paid to play anywhere," Turner recalls. "But there were little things where you'd have to get a certain amount of tickets you'd have to promise you'd bring 40 people. We'd always say we could bring 40, and like five people would show up. And we wouldn't play there again, of course."
BRMC's 13-song demo rapidly became a much-circulated item among record industry types, and the band ended up the target of a bidding war. Rather than inking a deal with the highest bidder, the group signed with Virgin Records, which offered complete artistic control in lieu of big bucks. Within days, BRMC was whisked into the legendary Sound City Studios to record its major label debut, a high-pressure situation that quickly took its toll.
"It was way over our heads," Turner remembers. "We kind of have a process we go through and a way of making our sound happen that doesn't involve a lot of professional mindsets. So when we got into that environment, a big machine like that, it was really kind of daunting at first. We made it through. We learned a hell of a lot, but I don't know if it really got us to go a lot farther than we really wanted to."
The band took what was salvageable from the Sound City sessions and combined it with tracks from its demo, releasing the material as "B.R.M.C." in April. With a sound that heartkens back to the post-new wave era of Cocteau Twins and Jesus and Mary Chain, the trio's debut was roasted for what some critics called nostalgic imitation of better bands. Comparisons were inevitable, though. The BRMC acronym looks
Chain reaction
suspiciously similar to JAMC, and songs like "Whatever Happened to My Rock 'n' Roll" recall Mary Chain's "I Hate Rock 'n' Roll" a little too closely.
"It doesn't bother me," Turner says of the criticisms. "My Bloody Valentine, Mary Chain, Love & Rockets, they're all really good groups. I think it's pretty nice to be in that company. The more people get into the record, (the similarities) seem to kind of fade away."
Fortunately, BRMC has a lot of high-profile fans in its corner, including Oasis' Noel Gallagher and even JAMC's Jim Reid, who defended the band in the press time and time again. Those accolades helped BRMC hook up with some prestigious tours including heroes like The Dandy Warhols, The Waterboys and Turner's personal favorite. Guided By Voices.
"We'd go up and be the young, hot band or whatever, and play 40 minutes and would be wiped out," he laughs. "And they'd play three hours and not break a sweat; it was amazing. It really put us in our place."
Currently, of course, BRMC's place is on the road. With gigs lined up into next
year, Turner and company have no idea when they'll find time to record a second album.
"I if we ever stop playing, I guess," the bassist laughs. "I don't see the end of this line right now. I guess we'll have to make another record at some point."
For now the band will persevere, taking comfort in the credence that its hard work will pay off sometime soon. And those improvised songs? Not to worry, says Turner. BRMC has no intention of
becoming the next Phish.
"We've just learned to loosen up a bit," he muses. "Every night we kind of switch our set around, to keep ourselves interested, without making it some two-hour experimental jam. We just keep getting better. It sounds cheesy, but when you play that much ... We're all just learning how to play together, and that's all I ever wanted."

Welcome to the dollhouse
Goth gals of Harlow get a big boost from VH1
By Jon Niccum
jniccum@ljworld.com
Silver-screen star Jean Harlow was born in Kansas City, Mo., in 1911. At the age of 16, the actress ran away to Los Angeles to find her fortune in the entertainment industry.
The same strategy has been employed by another platinum blonde whose career is linked to the name Harlow. Singer guitarist Amanda Rootes, a comely London native enjoyed some success with
HARLOW is preparing to release its debut record "Harlowland."

AND JOHN MILTON
her former British all-girl band Fluffy in the mid-'90s. After the group was dropped by Capitol Records and split up, she relocated to Los Angeles and formed Harlow. Now her L.A.-based act is gearing up to release its debut album after finding some unlikely exposure on American television.
"I've learned that it's always really important to be nice to everybody, because you don't know when you'll meet that person again."
Harlow
AMANDA'S HARLOW DOLL is not yet available at Cracker Barrel.
Rootes says of her industry experiences. "It's very important not to get above yourself and feel like you're this fabulous, amazing, big rock star. Because the next day you could be working in an office — which is what happened to me. I went from touring the world as a rock star in places like Japan, and the next year having to work in an office for eight bucks an hour. So it's important not to act really famous — you know, like, 'I
want fresh-squeezed orange juice' — because you could be eating (exptive) before too long."
Rootes and her bandmates — guitarist Rayshele Teige, bassist Chimene Gonzalez and drummer Rebecca Gibb — are currently in L.A. preparing for the second leg of their three-month tour while "just now getting the CD artwork finished."
"It's really cool," Rootes remarks about the cover of the new album, "Harlowland."
lifestyle.
"You know how we have Harlow dolls? Chimene got this really cool dollhouse that looks like Harlowland, the place where we all live. So our dolls are inside the dollhouse."
Rootes' brief bio on the band's Web site (www.harlowland.com) mentions that in addition to driving a red '77 Trans Am, she "has a large collection of evil dolls." It becomes clear throughout the conversation that the toys play an important role in the Harlow

"I have a lot of dolls that I've made over," she says. "I started doing it because I kept getting bored on the road. I have this one thing called 'rabit baby.' I bought it from that one place — what's it called?
it has a baby's face. It's really disturbing."
'Run' around
Harlow first came to national prominence during the April-July debut airing of VHI's "Bands on the Run." The Emmy-nominated series followed four unsigned rock acts as they toured the nation, performing for various honors and a grand prize of $50,000 in cash and $100,000 in gear. Harlow finished third among the groups, getting bested by San Diego's Soulcracker and Dallas' Flickerstick, the eventual winner. But millions of viewers came to appreciate the all-girl band — and the wry personalities of its individual members — who seemed to be having a wonderful time without taking the whole thing too seriously.
"We got thrown out there doing the show very early on," Rootes remembers."The band had been together for two years, but Rayshele had just joined and had just started learning - she'd only been playing guitar for a year.
"We really didn't think we would get (cast on the show). And we didn't get it initially. We weren't surprised at that, because we weren't exactly VHI-friendly. But then they suddenly changed their minds. I don't know what happened. I think they realized that as a band we have a close friendship. We're very passionate about what we do. And I think we're big dorks. There's a lot of comedy to us."
Harlow never managed to win any of the showcase competitions (those went to Flickerstick) nor the economic battles and reward challenges (those went to Soulcracker). The quartet feels it didn't quite possess the advantages of its competitors.
"What was really amusing was if you saw the pilot, the bands looked one way, then in the real show everybody changed their look and had a makeover," Rootes says. "But Harlow stayed the same. We didn't change anything for the show. We just were the way we were. In regards to the merchandise and everything, the other bands had more financial backing where they could afford to get CDs on the road. We were making everything ourselves by hand. We were burning CDs and getting out promotional copies — as we still are now (laughs). We wanted everything to be really special."
Still, audiences began to acquaint themselves with the band's appealing material, which combined gothic-rock ambiance with bar chord-anchored sludge. Rootes'
vocals provided the melodic counterpoint, meandering from an ethereal prettiness to spoken-word aggression.
"Because VHI only played like 30 seconds of three of our songs, it seemed that those are the ones that everybody knows, like 'Michael Hunt' and 'Blue Lie,'" she says. "I'm not sure why they only selected those three. Maybe we played those the best on that tour. I don't know, because I don't think they're the best songs on the record. We've written a lot more songs since we came back from the tour. We threw ourselves in the studio. We were there in January starting preproduction. And pretty much up until now we were working on the record. When the other bands were running around capitalizing

Harlow capitalizes on TV exposure

on the show and making money, we locked ourselves in the studio."
While Rootes believes the members of Harlow were portrayed accurately in the series, she does confess there were several moments of which she was less than proud.
"I was in Memphis and I was sitting in the van which we called Coffin of Pimp," Rootes recalls, regarding an episode caught on tape but never aired."Chimene comes in and said, 'That bitch in the gas station won't give me a beer. Go in there with your English accent and charm her.' So I walk into the gas station, and there's this older woman. I say (very regally), 'Yes, hello, I'd like to purchase a beer.' And she's like, 'I ain't servin' you no beer.' She was just being totally mean. So I got really mad and totally cussed her out. Then I walked out of the shop and fell over flat on my face, with her fully enjoying the moment of me being completely uncool after trying to be so bad-ass. And my band laughed at me."
Yet, Rootes claims that the single worst aspect of "Bands on the Run" was having to part with their beloved Coffin of Pimp when the series concluded.
"I think if they'd made that the prize, we would have tried way harder," she says of the customized Winnebago that sported the band's logo on its side. "We loved that van so much. We used to, like, 'soak up' that van. That's why now we've (saved up and bought) a Winny, because we want to live in it and drape it with red and black velvet. It's going to be so cool. We're going to decorate it all up with dolls."
Smear campaign
Even with the recognition gained from the reality TV series, Harlow is still faced with combating a hostile musical climate. There hasn't
exactly been a spate of estrogen-rich goth acts making it onto the radio these days.
Pat Smear
"If it's pop radio, then no," Rootes responds when asked about the commercial viability of a group like Harlow. "We're more underground. But if you're thinking about rock stations or heavier stations, then I think it is. Right now there are two diverse sounds in music: You've got the really poppy stuff like Britney Spears and 'N Sync, and then there's the sports metal like Limp Bizkit or Korn. I think people want
P. A. SUNYAN
something darker and heavier to listen to right now."
One way the band hopes to tip the scales in its favor is by adding a little star power.
"We're going to make the album a Libra, so we're going to release it in October," she reveals. "Plus, three of us are Libras in the band Rayshele's a Virgo. It was actually Pat's suggestion we do it then."
The Pat that Rootes refers to is "Harlowland" producer Pat Smear, the guitarist whose membership in Foo Fighters and The Germs — and frequent collaboration with Nirvana — has solidified his punk rock legend. Rootes first met Smear when Fluffy toured with Foo Fighters in 1996. And it's actually his star power that could matter most in the long run.
"He's got the sickest sense of humor — as have I — so it's really fun," she says of Smear. "Like if you start using some really bizarre chords, he'll get all excited about them. Pat has never written anything for me, but he's very open to me writing really strange things ... The whole record was like that. You just wanted to make Pat be happy."
During the sessions, Smear also catered to Harlow's extreme sense of visual style.
"He has like 200 guitars, so at times he'd say, 'OK. We need to play a blue sparkly guitar."
The band currently is unsigned, but taking into account the past association that Smear and Rootes have with Capitol Records, that could certainly change. However, she suggests that their present self-sufficient situation has its benefits.
"We wanted to try and keep control of everything," the 28-year-old singer explains. "Because of our relationship with Pat Smear and because of the publicity from the show, we're able to finance the record, which meant that we can A.) make a lot more money that way, and B.) we can completely do things how WE want to do it, rather than the way THEY would want to portray Harlow."
Gender equity
While few will argue that a female band generally has an easier time booking shows and drawing crowds, there's just as much baggage that comes with the status to offset these advantages. Do people assume most all-girl bands suck?
"Yeah, it's weird," Rootes responds. I don't know why, because there are a lot of great all-girl bands. We play with them all the time. There's often surprise on people's faces like, 'You guys were good.' It's nice, but it's like, 'Why wouldn't we be?'
Although their gender may lower certain musical expectations, the members of Harlow believe that their association with "Bands on the Run" has compensated by raising the bar. Audiences demand that the television VIPs deliver the
goods, whether in a live setting or a studio one.
"I think it made us feel that all the hype meant that we had to do a lot of work to make a good enough record," she says. "We haven't changed at all how we are musically or what we like. We're still the band that we were before 'Bands on the Run' ... But we've improved. We're a lot more heavy and weird. We have a lot more confidence now."
Inevitably, Harlow will draw comparisons to other gal rockers like Kittie and L7,and probably even to The Bangles and The Go-Go's.
"I hate when people compare us to other female bands, because that's what journalists tend to do." Rootes vents. "They say, 'You sound like these four other girl bands. But it's like, 'No, we don't.' That bugs us. It's always interesting to hear who people think we sound like, because we have so many diverse influences. We've made our music totally organic. Whatever comes out of us is what was meant to happen. I think a lot of bands go into the recording industry saying, 'We're a punk band' or 'We're a rock band' or 'We're a metal band.' Harlow doesn't get into that. Harlow just kind of lets it come out naturally."
Whether this blonde ever goes platinum in terms of sales remains to be seen. But the Harlow frontwoman continues to share her talent and know how with her cohorts, who appear to be in the music business for all the right reasons.
Rootes says of her role among the bandmates, "I guess I'm kind of the mom. But my band looks after me, too."
The mom? Yet, she's the one playing with dolls.
"Yeah really," she laughs. "I didn't have any growing up. Did I tell you about Chernobyl? He was actually on the show. He's a two-headed Bambi. We call him Cherny for short."

Boulder, Co., jambient band MFA creates electronica with a Phishy aftertaste
LUBRAY
By Geoff Harkness
MFA MEMBERS from left, are Giselle Ruzany, Chris Anton, Jonathan Modell, Chris Newton, Ryan Goodman and Jayem Cain.
gharkness@ljworld.com
Chris Newton is old-school. Real old-school.
"If you go back 250,300 years to classical music,the majority of it—besides opera—was instrumental," Newton says, phoning from the Boulder, Colo., dry cleaners where he spends most days. "That was popular music back then.And jazz in the middle of the century, there was vocal jazz,but not all of it."
Newton's staunch defense of vocal-free music comes as little surprise given that his band, Motion For Alliance, is slowly gaining a regional reputation for its trippy, (mostly) instrumental excursions into aural outer space.
By juxtaposing a broad range of atmospheric electronica with more noodling than grandma's homemade chicken soup, MFA is mining a sound heard only recently on a national level. Call it contemporary improv, organic electronica or jambient, the music takes the better aspects of the trance, jungle and drum & bass, and places it in the hands of musicians who seem to enjoy nothing more than zoning out on a 20-minute guitar solo.
Funky fundamentalists
MFA (Newton, drummer and keyboardist Jonathan Modell, guitarists Ryan Goodman and Chris Anton, DJ Jayem Cain and dancer/occasional vocalist Giselle
Ruzany) began in Boulder in 1998 as The Funkdamentals, a band that scraped by playing George Clinton covers for local trustafarians. While the group was able to release an indie CD, 1999's "Plan B for a Parallel Universe," The Funkdamentals weren't exactly causing popular Boulder acts like String Cheese Incident to lose sleep at night.
"We made about 150 of them, and we still have most of 'em." Newton laughs when asked about the album.
"Plan B" was followed by a self-titled CD, an assortment of live and studio tracks that served as the band's official debut. The disc sold well enough to keep the group gigging regularly around Boulder, but The Funkdamentals kept upsetting crowds by straying from formulaic funk into genres the group members found more challenging.
"As the music started to develop, we started playing less and less funk and started getting more experimental — acid jazz, then jungle, drum & bass — sort of rave music," Newton explains
As the band's music continued to evolve, the members decided that flying the funk banner was no longer appropriate and rechristened themselves MFA late last year. Though the current incarnation sounds a lot closer to forwardlooking outfits like Lake Trout than Phish or Widespread Panic, MFA is still quick to
plead guilty to any outstanding charges of jam band excess.
The members of MFA took a novel approach when writing and recording songs for their first CD, the just-released "Arrival." Rather than penning an assortment of tunes and then committing them to tape as they had in the past, tracks were composed by each musician on
"Over half of our show — sometimes like 80 percent of it — is improv." Newton explains. "We jam and we're a band, so we're a 'jam band.' Everyone who knows Phish knows that for their entire career they got compared to the 'Dead, and it really annoyed them. We don't want to be sounding like Phish or ripping them off, but you've gotta give 'em credit for starting this whole jam band scene."
Not live, not 'Dead
the spot. It was only after everyone had finished recording that the final product was mixed, with the band cutting, pasting and looping various parts into a coherent whole.
"None of the tracks were recorded simultaneously, it was all individual," Newton recalls. "John would do a click track or a drum track or both, and just build from there. It was step-by-step from the ground up."
Now MFA has the unenviable, almost surreal task of learning to play its own material live.
"None of the songs had ever been conceived before," Newton laughs. "So now it's like learning to cover ourselves in band practice. We've got pretty much the whole album down except for one, maybe two songs that we don't do yet. It was a really cool way to
do a record, we never did anything like that before."
Currently, MFA is preparing for its third out-of-state tour this year, looking forward to showing off its newly purchased fog machine and lighting system. While the roadie-less band is still very much in its infancy (various members run lights and effects from the stage), there is an undeniable excitement that goes along with creating something from scratch.
"We definitely try to go for the visual approach," Newton says. "None of us are that cool to look at. We don't really get all decked-out in costumes and stuff like that. It's been talked about, but we just feel goofy. So we try to capture a couple senses in our show."

Getting an earful
Acclaimed radio comedy show finds a new name but keeps the same attitude
MISSY WAYNE
By Mitchell J. Near
RIGHT BETWEEN THE EARS
mnear@ljworld.com
If there is one thing any performer does not want, it's to be saddled with a label that implies being average. How can you stand out in the crowd and grab the attention of fickle audiences if your name seems boring? That was the situation the rambunctious actors and writers of the award-winning radio program "The Imagination Workshop" found themselves in. They had great work, and people who heard them loved them. It was convincing listeners to get with the program that was a bit harder.
So they threw away the traditional name, and labeled themselves "Right Between the Ears." The name is perfectly suited as they are taking aim at subjects they so love to skewer.
"Earlier this year our market research indicated that those directors who run the show thought the No.1 liability was the name Imagination Workshop,'" producer-director-writer Darrell Brogdon says. "It's confusing and ambiguous. When program directors see the title, they need something that will grab them so they'll listen. It didn't help that it was also the name of a rock group. So the time came to make a change. We brainstormed, checked the Internet to make sure it wasn't in use, and that's right where we ended up."
They'll also end up at Liberty Hall this Saturday night, performing live and broadcasting their show over KANU 91.5 FM. Eventually, the show will be packaged and sold through National Public Radio.
The troupe, which includes David Greusel, John Jessup, Andi Meyer, Jim Moore, Kip Niven, Russ Tamblyn, Roberta Solomon and Teri Wilder, creates topical humor based around current events. Like Comedy Central's "The Daily
Show with Jon Stewart,"— only on the radio — they mostly take aim at politics and other societal issues. They are adept at writing comedy sketches right up to the time of the show, sometimes rewriting material even between performances if they think the humor is a little flat. That skill has been especially vital this month, since most of the current events making headlines will never be the stuff of comedic fodder.
When the terrorist attacks occurred, Brogdon estimates that the script was about halfwritten, and most of it, taking shots at politics in general — and President Bush in particular — had to be scuttled. The writers with razor-sharp wits felt, like so many other entertainers, that now was not the time for political humor. Accordingly, this
show will feature more standard bits that have become fan favorites.
"We considered, briefly, canceling the show," Brogdon says. "But if we don't do the show, then the bad guys win. So it's like jumping rope; we'll have to go about it in a circumspect way. Humor is a difficult topic, and it's hard to be humorous right now. But people need to laugh again, and they're ready to laugh."
Right Between the Ears has replaced some of the politics with archive favorites, including "The Case Book of Mobile Homes" and "Buck Naked," along with spoofs of "Weakest Link" and various infomercials. Listeners also can expect another episode of the rowdy "Frontier Psychiatrist."
"He's winning the West one psychosis at a time," Brogdon deadpans.
got back into the groove, they surprised themselves by cranking out a lot of new material. It may have been harder to get motivated, but the experience has actually proved cathartic.
Some entertainers have even gone public with their own self-doubts about their selected professions, reasoning that recent events have made their careers irrelevant. Brogdon does not buy into that line of thinking.
Once the group members
"It's really a mix of the new and old. But it's more new stuff than we thought. It's been horrible, not even wanting to write comedy. But that's nothing in the human scheme of things," Brogdon says. "I think one reason we have more new material is that the closer we get to the performance, the more our minds are on the show."
"I thought long and hard about that," he says. "Now, more and more people are depending on the media. And as people return to their routines, they will depend on their radios and TV, and hopefully we are a part of that."

How do you rid a city of crime while retaining your sense of right and wrong? Can that even be done, or do you have to get as dirty as the people you're dealing with in order to bring them down? These are questions law enforcement personnel must grapple with on a daily basis, and they're central to "Training Day," a gritty new drama that never lives up to its ambitions, but gives it a hell of a try anyway.
Ethan Hawke plays Jake Hoyt, a rookie Los Angeles cop who gets what looks like a plum assignment, riding along with veteran narcotics officer Alonzo Harris (Denzel Washington). If Jake passes his "training day," he'll be part of Alonzo's elite team, which will help him move up the ranks and have the kind of career he really wants. As the day goes on, however, Jake realizes that his new boss has not only crossed the ethical line, he's obliterated it. Alonzo is a thief and a murderer who justifies his behavior by claiming it's the only way to clean up the streets, and the idealistic Jake must decide if he can accept this reasoning or hold onto his deeply-held principles.
Writer David Ayer ("U-571") and director Antoine Fuqua ("The Replacement Killers") both grew up in rough urban neighborhoods, with Ayer hailing from South Central L.A., and "Training Day" has a warts-and-all authenticity that pulls viewers right into a world where drug dealing and

gang shoot-outs are a way of life. There's also a real effort to get inside the heads of cops like Alonzo, who honestly believe they have to break all the rules in order to do their jobs. The constant danger these people live with infuses every scene, and the violence, while certainly graphic, is never glorified. Instead, it's shown for what it is: ugly, frightening and dehumanizing.
Once Fuqua and Ayer set up this environment and the moral conflicts it creates, they can't seem to figure out what to do with it. Most of the problem lies with the way Alonzo is written. He's such a psycho, it's hard to feel too sympathetic for him although we are apparently supposed to. He is presented as a good cop who got pushed over the edge, but this seems unlikely, especially when it is revealed that outrageous bond his
Washington is, as always, powerfully charismatic, and it's nice for a change to see him play a character who isn't a candidate for sainthood. Unfortunately, he's reduced to chewing scenery by the time the movie is over, because that's all there is left for him to do. The subtle, fascinating moral shadings implied by the story end up buried under
shouting and gunfire.
Jake is the more ambiguous of the two main characters, and Hawke shows the potential for dark deeds beneath his slacker blankness. He is something of a stand-in for the audience, as he wrestles with the dilemma of an outsider trying to understand — and survive — a situation where his life clearly has no value, and neither does anyone else's. Right up to the end of the film, it's difficult to tell how he's going to respond, and you can practically see the wheels turning in Hawke's head as his character comes to terms with what he may or may not have to do.

Eighth annual FilmFest Kansas City celebrates cultural diversity as theme
DONALD DUCK
By Loey Lockerby
"SCRAPPLE"
will be shown at 10 p.m.
Saturday and 4 p.m. Monday during FilmFest Kansas City.
mag@ljworld.com
The number of major film events in the Kansas City area seem to get larger every year. From Halfway to Hollywood to the Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, the KAN Festival to the Indy Film Showcase,the list goes on and on. One of the biggest and most diverse is FilmFest Kansas City, whose eighth annual installment runs from Oct. 5-11. As usual, it will provide a staggering array of choices for area movie fans.
The theme this year, "Celebrating Our Cultural Diversity Through World Cinema," is a mouthful, but it sums up the festival's mission to expose audiences to works that otherwise might never be presented here. There is a slacker comedy set in Iceland ("101 Reykjavik"), a long-banned Soviet romance ("Brief Encounters"), a Japanese thriller ("Evil Dead Trap") and an animated African folk tale ("Kirikou and the Sorceress"), just to name a few.
In addition to the international flavor, there will be American independent features, including Slamdance favorites "Scrapple" and Wendigo," and a series of films exploring the Civil Rights movement, one of which, Spike Lee's "The Huey P. Newton Story," will be screened at the historic Gem Theatre in the 18th and Vine District. On the local-interest front, Bruce Ricker will be on hand to introduce his 1979 documentary "The Last of the Blue Devils," considered the definitive work on the legendary Kansas City jazz scene, and "Bird," the Clint Eastwood-directed biography of Charlie "Bird" Parker, for which Ricker was a consultant.
David Disney will join preservationist (and FilmFest co-chair) Butch Rigby to introduce "Walt: The Man Behind the Myth," with proceeds going to benefit the Thank You Walt Disney foundation's efforts to restore the animator's old studio in Kansas City, Mo. Finally, there will be a special screening of "Ride with the Devil," Ang Lee's drama about the Civil War-era guerilla battles in Kansas and Missouri. The area's independent filmmakers also will be part of the proceedeeds. Films from the KAN Festival and the Independent Filmmakers Coalition will be screened, and workshops will be held on Saturday and Sunday, where aspiring auteurs can learn from both local directors and special guests.
It's Pat
Needless to say, putting all this together is no easy task. While several of the festival's organizers have been with the project for years, executive director Pat Hamarstrom just came aboard in May, two months after taking the same job with the KAN Festival.
"KAN has, in the past, teamed with FilmFest to share an Exec Director," she explains. "They can sort of team and get somebody who will work for both of them, and end up paying a person something more like a salary."
A Kansas City native, Hamarstrom worked extensively in film and theatre, primarily in Dallas and Chicago, before moving back to her hometown about a year-and-a-half ago. Although she had organized a film festival in Dallas in the early '90s, her background was mostly in producing and teaching, and she discovered that those skills helped a great deal in her new line of work.
"I really like the ability to help artists and see their visions," she points out. "It's kind of producing, and I like the role of producing."
FilmFest has a surprising number of people sharing job titles and duties, including Hamarstrom, Rigby, Geoffrey
Westra and John Shipp, who handles most of the programming.
"It's kind of funny," Hamarstrom says, "because when I start laying out everybody's titles for people, I realize we have a whole lot of chiefs, and all the chiefs are, like, scrubbing the floors. I guess that's what you get when you don't make a whole lot of money."
Everyone involved takes on various responsibilities, with Hamarstrom dealing largely with marketing, fund-raising and volunteer coordination.
Although she was not responsible for choosing the theme of the event, Hamarstrom ended up being well-suited for.
"I threw out the fact, when they were hiring me, that the festival I'd done in Dallas was multicultural," she says. "At the time that I started it, that was very radical, (though) certainly not anymore. I think that John was the one who put together the actual theme, but certainly it's an interest of mine and has been for a long time."
She also credits Shipp with using his experience with distribution to help bring in filmmakers and speakers.
"Lots of times, the distributor will have or will know of guests that are available," Hamarstrom says. "That's just something that most films try to offer if they can, some sort of guest or visitor for a film festival. John has done this for years and years and years, and he has a running dialogue with all of the distributors."
Competitive nature
Returning to Kansas City after so much time away, Hamarstrom was impressed by the level of movie-related activity, though not really shocked by it.
"I'm not maybe as surprised as somebody who didn't live here, because there really was, even years ago, a base of people who were incredible film lovers," she says, noting that the local film community is strikingly cooperative. "I think there's a healthy competition, but it's a very friendly competition among the festivals," she
says. "I really do get the sense that it is a very polite sort of society, that really does attempt to work with each other."
Hamarstrom is ready to match the dedication she sees in the people around her, which only can be good for a city whose self-image does not always match its accomplishments.
"I want to be involved with an organization where I can see a building process take place," she says. "I want to get out there and make sure that we have lots of things happening... I think theatre is stronger here than people ever give it credit for. I think film is stronger here than it's ever given credit for. I think the arts are stronger here. I think we have a lot of good things in this city."
With her help, FilmFest KC will continue to be one of them.

Brothers find that it's not wise to anger truckers in the suspenseful 'Joy Ride'
ALEXANDRA STEVENSON
JULIAN BURNS
LEFT TO RIGHT, PAUL WALKER, Leelee Sobieski and Steve Zahn play road trippers who are pursued by a vengeful trucker in "Joy Ride."
By Jon Niccum
jniccum@ljworld.com
Cinematic thrillers customarily use one of two tactics to enhance the suspense:
1) A killer knows something about you, and you don't realize that he knows it.
2) You know something about a killer, and he doesn't realize that you know it.
Movies like "Enemy of the State" and "Copycat" fall into the former category, while pictures such as "Rear Window" and the enjoyable new thriller "Joy Ride" occupy the latter.
In this cautionary tale about the dangers of playing a practical joke on a stranger, Paul Walker stars as Lewis, a college freshman who plans on picking up his high school friend Venna (Leelee Sobieski) during a cross-country drive back home. When Lewis finds out that his goofball brother Fuller (Steve Zahn) is being released from another brief stint in jail, he reroutes his trip to first give the older sibling a lift.
To stave off boredom, the boys begin to have fun with the "prehistoric Internet" that the car is equipped with: a CB radio. Amid the "good buddies" and "Kojaks with a Kodak" on the road, the pair starts messing with a lonely trucker who goes by the handle of Rusty Nail. Lewis uses a girly voice to fabricate a woman he calls Candy Cane, and arranges a bogus rendezvous with the man at room 17 of a highway motel.
Review
Rating:★★★
(R)
Things get out of hand when the real occupant of the room where the trucker was sent ends up in the hospital with life-threatening injuries. The brothers (who were eavesdropping from room 18) realize they are partly responsible for the crime they've witnessed. Rusty Nail also blames them, and the unseen enemy begins a torturous game of pursuit with the travelers.
Director John Dahl ("Rounders") cobbles together effective bits from the paranoid highway classic "Duel" and the recent trucker kidnap flick "Breakdown" to craft a gripping but fairly routine nail-biter. Luckily, he bends the formula here and there — the first half starts out with the heroes knowing something the killer doesn't, while the second half has the killer ahead of them at every step.
Walker, who may be the closest thing there is to a generic leading man, fulfills the same role that he did in "The Fast and Furious" (he's already spent half his career in cars) by providing a handsome centerpiece whose job it is to escort the audience from one action scene to the next. Only in that road-fixated movie, Walker's character was harboring a major secret. The "Joy Ride"
script, by Clay Tarver and J.J. Abrams, offers him no such surprises this time around, and he is content to let his co-star have all the "good scenes."
Zahn is certainly up to the task. The actor always gives a boost to films ("Out of Sight" and "Happy, Texas" leap to mind) because of the manic reliability he brings to a part. Like a slightly more controlled Crispin Glover, Zahn provides an off-center magnetism that elevates "Joy Ride" above its potentially formulaic plot line. In one of the film's many twists, Zahn's character starts to move in on his brother's gal — and she appears to reciprocate.
is all the more effective because the audience is never certain how hostile the villain is willing to get. As with the superior "Duel" (which was made for television by a novice Steven Spielberg in 1971), much of the terror stems from the conceit that the bad guy is never really shown. This person is merely an extension of the multi-ton machine that he manipulates. "Joy Ride" adds a new wrinkle by giving the villain an unsettling voice — a slow, backwoods drawl that is somewhat sad. When his recurring words "Candy Cane" spew forth from the CB, there's a foul tone, as if
Dahl resists the urge to overdo the violence - which
"she" didn't show up for an encounter. (Obscure actor Matthew Kimbrough portrays Rusty Nail — his most notable credit being the beefy firing range attendant who helps Annette Bening in "American Beauty.")
From its "Seven"-style title sequence through its "Body Heat" corpse-switching ending, "Joy Ride" exploits its source material unabashedly. And like those other films, the popcorn thriller manages to keep the viewer's disbelief at bay, while offering a deceptively smooth ride through some frequently bumpy territory.

Fate with a twist
'Serendipity' meets all the expectations of a typical adult romantic comedy
LA GARAGE DE LA PEAU
KATE BECKINSALE, left, and John Cusack play strangers who meet one night and leave their potential relationship in the hands of fate, in the comedy "Serendipity."
By Dan Lybarger
mag@ljworld.com
"Seren迪ipity" is a romantic comedy with meager thematic ambition and no trace of originality. British director Peter Chelsom and writer Marc Klein almost seem to take pride in having made a cookie-cutter movie, and to be fair, they've made a rather tasty confection. "Seren迪ipity" boldly asserts its escapist convictions, so the laughs come consistently even if the storyline never adds up to anything substantial.
The film even begins with a standard "meet cute" incident. During the Christmas rush in the early 1990s, a die-hard New Yorker named Jonathan Trager (John Cusack) and a British immigrant named Sara Thomas (Kate Beckinsale) eye the last pair of black gloves that are hanging on the rack. Both make a grab for the item, but neither has the rudeness necessary to seize it. The two come up with the novel idea of each claiming a glove, and then they spend the entire evening wandering around the Big Apple. Despite the fact that both have significant others, it's obvious that there is a mutual attraction.
Review
C
Hoping to put fate to the test, Sara writes her phone number and name in a book she's going to sell, and Jonathan scribbles similar information on a $5 bill. Sara insists that if the two were really intended to be a couple, they will find the objects and live happily ever after.
Seven years later, Jonathan and Sara have not seen each other and are even living on different coasts. They also are now engaged to other people. Of course, they still can't stop thinking about the night they shared and continually find clues that indicate they shouldn't give up looking for each other. These sentences describe the entire storyline, and its conclusion requires no guesswork
Rating: ★★★
(PG-13)
"Serendipity" might have been a bit more gratifying if its components weren't so preor-
dained. Even in romantic comedies, unpredictability can be an asset. Fortunately, Klein offsets the potential torpidity with a treasury of snappy lines, likable characters and agreeably goofy situations. Molly Shannon has several choice moments as Eve, Sara's best friend. Eve is a New Age shopkeeper who can sell but refuses to believe in her own wares. Her cynical outlook shows up in her observations on other subjects. When she and Sara encounter a golf driving range that Jonathan has just left, she states, "Golf is for people who are too fat for tennis." Shannon gets away with her tart remarks because Eve can be as affectionate as she is skeptical
The other cast members also manage to give the material more weight. As with "High Fidelity," Cusack comes across as the screen's most amiable neurotic. Somehow, he manages to whine frequently without losing an audience's affection. It's also refreshing to see Beckinsale recover from her unfortunate turn as a bubbleheaded nurse in "Pearl Harbor." The intelligence she normally projects returns here, and she actually looks better than she did under the oppressive makeup she had to wear in the former movie.
The two have to make some considerable effort to keep regular Cusack foil Jeremy Piven from stealing the show as Jonathan's obit-writing buddy. He assists poor Jonathan on his quest even as it gets seemingly more absurd and futile. The movie's most memorable performance, however, comes from Eugene Levy (the "American Pie" movies) as a department store clerk. He appears in less than a handful of scenes. Nonetheless, Levy's ability to think of the worst possible thing to say and his obsessive need to maintain his own space allow him to upstage the others.
After the World Trade Centack, there are a few elecs in "Serendipity" that it seem like an eerie capsule for an era that have never really existed. Simple, characters in the ilk nothing of flying the continent on a hill, the film maintains stone. Chelsom "serendipity" with the man that ran through his movie "Town and City." The newer effort is more fun because the letters in it aren't egotistiks who seem to leap in out of bed with each other apply out of boredom. While it is sometimes discussed in serendipity," its protagonists have bigger and more chaste intentions toward each other. As a result, their destiny is a good deal more compelling.
"Serendipity" may be faulted for its small goals, but fate may look kindly on a film that consistently meets them.

American Pie 2
SEAN BEAN, left, plays a criminal mastermind, who kidnaps the daughter of a prominent psychiatrist (Michael Douglas) to persuade him into helping recover information from a patient, in the thriller "Don't Say a Word."
Screenwriter Adam Herz works with bodily discharges and fetishes the way a jazz musician handles melodies and instruments. The storyline for the sequel pretty much follows the first "American Pie," but Herz and director J.B. Rogers ("Say It Isn't So") manage to elicit a surprising amount of guilty chuckles for a retread. This time around the guys (Jason Biggs, Chris Klein, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Seann William Scott and Eddie Kaye Thomas) are fresh out of their first year of college and are living together in a Lake Michigan beach house. Herz has a pretty good idea of what worked in the first movie, so there is more of Eugene Levy as Jim's well-meaning but intrusive dad, and Alyson Hannigan ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer"), who stole the last film as a band camp devotee, has a more substantial and affectionate role. It's encour aging that the new film's funniest gag involves a trombone that has no kinky complications. If Herz and his collaborators keep up this type of comedy, they may one day succeed at making flicks that don't rely on violating innocent flutes or pastries. (R) - DL
★★★ Southwind Twelve, 3433 Iowa.
The Closet
French writer-director Francis Veber (the hilarious "The Dinner Game") takes a premise that sounds more suited for a sitcom. Miraculously, he manages to make a smart, engaging comedy about Francois Pignon (Daniel Auteuil, "The Widow of St. Pierre") a dull accountant who pretends to be gay to keep his endangered job at a condom factory. As a result, for both good and ill, the previously ignored fellow becomes the most talked about employee in the office. Veber succeeds with this setup because he doesn't perpetuate stereotypes, but bases his gags on how people perceive Francois. He also has some help from a top-notch French cast, which includes Gérard Depardieu, Jean Rochefort and Michèle Laroque ("Ma vie en Rose"). Veber's movies have frequently been remade into mediocre American flicks like "Pure Luck" and "The Man With One Red Shoe." It's best to put up with the subtitles and see his work done properly. (R) - DL
★★★ Liberty Hall Cinemas, 644 Mass.
The Deep End
Like "Blood Simple" before it, "The Deep End" generates a good deal of suspense as its characters wander into danger because they don't know information that has been made plain to the audience early on. Scottish star Tilda Swinton ("The Beach") stars as a woman who suspects that her teen-age son (Jonathan
Don't Say a Word
Tucker) has murdered an older man he's had an affair with. When she discovers the body, she tries to hide it but winds up at the mercy of a blackmailer (Goran Vsinjic, "ER"). Writer-directors Scott McGehee and David Siegel walk precariously close to implausibility, but have created such intriguing characters that a viewer gives little pause when a somewhat forced conclusion rolls around. The visuals in the film are arresting, if overbearing. Sundance Cinematography award winner Giles Nutzgens gets the most out of the Lake Tahoe locations, but his efforts would be for naught if the people occupying the landscape weren't so compelling. (R) - DL
"Don't Say a Word" pleads on bended knee for its audience to abandon common sense in the name of lukewarm thrills. Michael Douglas ("Traffic") stars as an upscale shrink who has been forced to "cure" a young mental patient so that she will reveal a mysterious code. If he doesn't deliver, an English thug (Sean Bean from "Goldeneye") will kill his young daughter. Director Gary Fleder ("Kiss the Girls") has some visual flair (the hospital looks like
something out of Poe), but the material consistently falls on the side of the familiar and the outlandish. For example, as Douglas' wife (Famke Janssen) manages to subdue one of the perps despite the fact that she has an enormous cast on one leg. As a rule of thumb, be wary of movies where Douglas plays opposite a leading lady more than half his age. The kind of effort it takes to create convincing female characters past the age of 40 is absent from this script. (R) - DL
★★1/2 Liberty Hall Cinemas, 644 Mass.
Ghost World
★★ Southwind Twelve, 3433 Iowa.
In his brief 80-page comic series "Ghost World," cartoonist Daniel Clowes manages to make the ennui of two sarcastic teenage girls scathingly funny and often oddly moving. Director Terry Zwigoff ("Crumb") reaches the same emotions and adds some new characters and situations that are entertaining in their own right. Thora Birch ("American Beauty") and Scarlett Johannson ("The Horse Whisperer") play Enid and Rebecca, two recent graduates of high school (or in Enid's case, a near graduate) who find their new environment phony and rather disturbing. Rebecca adapts, but Enid always seems out of place. Zigoff
Screenwriter Wesley Strick (the 1991 "Cape Fear") has come up with a juicy setup in "The Glass House." But the results occasionally make a viewer wish a few rocks were present. When a pair of adolescents (Leelee Sobieski and Trevor Morgan) lose their parents in a car wreck, they are adopted by their mom and dad's best friends Terry and Erin Glass (Stellan Skarsgård and Diane Lane). While the two live in a nice cliff-side abode, she's a doctor who takes too much of her own medicine, and his apparent fortune is based on loan shark debts. All of this is potentially horrific because adults unfairly mistrust teens
and Clowes teamed up on the script and, like Enid, view the world with a unique blend of sarcasm and compassion. It's also refreshing to see eternal oddball Steve Buscemi playing something other than a criminal. By exaggerating the foibles of modern life only slightly, Zwigoff and Clowes have made a satire that has more than ridicule on its mind. In some ways it seems fitting that a comic book adaptation offers a more realistic and entertaining film than most reworkings of novels. (R) - DL

even when they are telling the truth, and coming home to a couple like the Glasses would be an unwelcome prospect even for
non-relatives. Still, one wishes Strick and TV-trained director Daniel Sackheim had taken a less hackneyed approach. Many characters might as well be wearing "Next to Die" T-shirts, and the film's overuse of "is he dead?" twists make one indifferent to the question. (PG-13) DL
★★ Southwind Twelve, 3433 Iowa.
Hardball
While Hollywood was expected to sanitize the material in Daniel Coyle's novel "Hardball: A Season in the Projects" - which could have ended up "Mighty Ducks in the Hood" - the resulting "Hardball" is a deceptively edgy adaptation. Keanu Reeves stars as Conor, a career gambler who's grown increasingly in debt to bookies. Strapped for cash, he turns to a successful friend who provides an unusual solution: If
Conor will coach a corporate-sponsored youth baseball team from Chicago's housing projects, he'll earn enough to pay off the thugs. A premise such as the one offered in director Brian Robbins' "story of triumph over adversity" is a magnet for clichés. But the material remains fresh, thanks to the distinct, convincing personalities of the little leaguers and because of Reeves' troubled protagonist. Although it's somewhat backhanded praise, Reeves gives his best performance yet - one of the few times he's actually played a character instead of just relying on his glazed movie star persona. It also helps the film's credibility that Robbins chooses to keep the street language of the kids intact. By its third act, however, "Hardball" pushes things too far, as the grim realities of residing in gang territory result in a plot twist that is simply too violent for a movie ostensibly aimed at children. Moreover, the team's quest for post-season play seems petty and insignificant when following this horrific mood swing. (PG-13) - JN

Hearts in Atlantis
A.
Anthony Hopkins is the kind of actor who can make almost any film interesting simply by being on screen, and "Hearts in Atlantis" is no exception.

nected stories from Stephen King's 1999 book, and the narrative gaps between them make the movie nearly incoherent. Most of the relationships, including that between Yelchin and Hopkins, are not drawn clearly enough to be affecting, and a subplot about a group of shadowy men harassing Hopkins just seems silly. With the exception of Davis, who has little to work with, the actors fare reasonably well, especially Yelchin, who

Max Keeble's Big Move
Every kid dreams of getting back at the sadistic bullies and dictatorial faculty that are part of the standard junior high school package. Max Keeble (Alex D. Linz) is about to live out that fantasy, thanks to
his parents' decision to move the family out of town. Knowing he won't be there to reap the consequences, Max turns the tables on the class thugs (Noel Fisher and Orlando Brown) and exposes the shady dealings of the school's vindictive principal (Larry Miller). Then he finds out his family isn't moving after all. Max is sort of a pint-sized Ferris Bueller, enlisting his friends (Zena Grey and Josh Peck) in elaborate schemes to undermine the petty jerks of the world, and there's a certain rebellious kick to watching them stand up for themselves. Director Tim Hill and his pack of screenwriters must have hired their kids to do most of the work, though - the humor in "Max Keeble's Big Move" is the kind that seems clever and original when you're 11, but becomes dull and stupid by the time you're, say, 12. This means that most adults will be bored out of their minds, but millions of sixth graders just found a new hero. (PG) - LL
The Others
★★ Southwind Twelve, 3433 Iowa.
The old dark house movie makes a comeback with this creepy ghost story, thanks to writer-director Alejandro Amenabar's gift for creating subtle chills and loads of atmosphere. Set on a remote, fog-enshrouded English estate during World War II, "The Others" gives its star, Nicole Kidman, a virtual onewoman show, as a mother trying to protect her children (Alakina Mann and James Bentley) from all manner of threats, both natural and supernatural. The audience is treated to an unusually intelligent ghost story, where discussions of religion, loneliness and familial devotion are comfortably intertwined with the things that go bump in the night. Kidman's performance is as layered and unnerving as the rest of the film, which

moves slowly, but delivers its jolls by making viewers use their imaginations. In this era of shallow, noisy spectacles passing themselves off as horror films, that's a rare gift indeed. (PG-13) - LL
★★★1/2 Southwind Twelve, 3433 Iowa.
Rush Hour 2
The pairing of veteran Hong Kong star Jackie Chan with loudmouth comic Chris Tucker isn't quite as novel with "Rush Hour 2," but there is enough of Chan's comic acrobatics to compensate for some of Tucker's less charming moments (what exactly IS he doing in Hong Kong besides making a jerk of himself?). This time around, Chief Inspector Lee (Chan) and Detective Carter (Tucker) try to take out a murderous gang of counterfeiters. The new film has a stronger villain. Zhang Ziyi from "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" may be pint-sized but she's all cold menace - not bad for someone who doesn't speak a word of English on-screen. Chan gets to put a wastebasket to novel use, and Tucker has a couple of bits (one where he demolishes a Michael Jackson song and another at a craps table) where he demonstrates some chops we haven't seen before. The story's thin and a bit flat, but there's enough action to feed the rush. (PG-13) - DL
★✩1/2 Southwind Twelve, 3433 Iowa.
Zoolander
If it's funny in a 5-minute sketch, chances are it won't be funny for an hour and a half. That's a rule countless "Saturday Night Live" alums have had to learn the hard way, but Ben Stiller and writing partner Drake Sather apparently thought they were immune. They weren't."Zoolander," based on a character the duo created for a skit at the 1996 VH1 Fashion Awards, is a perfect example of a joke that goes on 85 minutes too long. Stiller takes the lead as the sweet but idiotic Derek Zoolander, whose main worry in life is competing with rival Hansel (Owen Wilson) for the coveted Male Model of the Year statuette. There are bigger things going on, however, as he learns when pretty magazine reporter Matilda (Stiller's wife, Christine Taylor) discovers a plot to brainwash Derek and train him to assassinate the Prime Minister of Malaysia. Stiller and Wilson head up a great comedic cast, which includes Will Ferrell, Jerry Stiller (nearly stealing his son's movie) and a self-parodying David Duchovny, and there are some gags that are enjoyable (the "walk-off" rumble has to be seen to be believed). There simply isn't enough material here to last an entire movie, though. Watching Stiller suck in his cheeks and pose is only amusing the first 20 times. Then, like the rest of the movie, it just becomes annoying. (PG-13) - LL

Deciphering the Formula
Columnist's first auto race leaves him confused
They say that people fear what they don't understand. So I must have been horrified as I sat at the Brickyard 500 in Indianapolis and watched my first Formula One race. But more than horrified, I was mystified. Almost 200,000 people were in attendance witnessing these cars shoot by them, yet I couldn't make heads or tails of the blurs.
Seth Jones
Consider this race a sort of self-imposed penance for my insensitivity to street racers a couple weeks ago. I wrote a tongue-in-cheek column about searching for local drag racers, and it seems that to the race fans, any competition of speed, be it Neon versus Amigo or Porsche versus Ferrari, is taken quite seriously. Yeah, I know there was a NASCAR race in Kansas that same day. Let's just say that once in a while, I like to take the road less traveled especially when there's a new city to party in and the whole trip is a tax write-off.
The entire undertaking was quite an event. There were people attending from all over the world. The day before the race, I had my picture taken with the Michelin man and got up close to Ferraris. I learned that even in an international crowd, a good funnel cake is still the dessert of choice.
The day of the race arrived, and I was greeted by soccer star Brandi Chastain, treated to a live performance by John Mellencamp and waved to Miss America. People stretched out nearly as far as I could see in both directions. It really seemed like something special.
Then all the cars lined up. It was "go" time. A light turned green, and they were gone. This was my first complaint.
Not that I knew who any of the racers were anyway, but I saw them for the five seconds they were on the straightaway, and then they were quickly out of my viewing area. About a minute and a half would go by and they would return, possibly in a slightly different order.
Out of BOUNDS
PEDRO MAYORAL
Even though I knew none of
mag@ljworld.com
these guys, I figured I better choose one to cheer for. I selected Juan Montoya because I thought he was from that cool country Brazil — but he's actually Colombian. I also liked this guy because he had the largest number of attractive female fans.
Our seats were just ahead of the finish line, on the track's lone straightaway. So I had the pleasure of watching the racers fly by at their peak speeds but didn't get to see any of the action on the curves.
But I had a great view of Miss America's curves.
To me, being a racing spectator was like going to a baseball game and sitting under the bleachers. Through all the feet, all I could see of the game was third base. The rest of the game would have to be relayed to me via the voices from above.
For example, I was camped there with my earplugs in, and nothing was in front of me except an empty track. Suddenly, the crowd erupted. I looked around, wondering what I missed. My friend John Wake turned to me and said, "Your boy Juan Montoya just took the lead."
"Oh, all right Juan!" I replied. I glanced at the distant video board and saw a replay. Then, 30 seconds later, he flew by in the lead. People pumped their fists and cheered.
"That was ... wonderful," I thought to myself. Fans were able to walk around to other parts of the track to see the curvy parts. But the cars zipped out of sight there even faster.
Turns out people don't place bets on these races. They just somehow choose one racer they
identify with and cheer for that guy. There are no Americans involved in the race. The closest thing to a local was a Canadian. Maybe people can identify with the race cars, because so many folks have product loyalty to Ferrari or something. But ever since I traded mine in, I haven't cared that much.
Anyway, Montoya was somehow representing the Jayhawks in my own mind this day. For a brief time in the race, he was actually leading. Then he wasn't in the lead because someone cut him off on one of the curves, I assume. By the end of the competition, a guy named Mika Hakkinen was declared the winner. He was spraying champagne on his buddies when one of the cars got towed off the track in front of us. Turned out that the car being hauled away was my man Montoya's.
Somehow, it seemed appropriate that I was clueless that he had dropped out of the race. But I could tell you the exact location of Miss America.

Toning it down
Annual Emmys ceremony will revamp festivities to reflect the national mood
By Mitchell J. Near
mnear@ljworld.com
Walter Cronkite is opening the Emmy Awards this Sunday night.
If there was ever a moment in TV history to encapsulate the seriousness with which Hollywood is taking the recent World Trade Center attack, it's in the decision of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences to tone down the usually festive mood of the telecast by having the former news anchor address the audience, instead of the original opening routine by comedian and host Ellen DeGeneres.
Not that Hollywood feels much like partying anyway.
"Walter Cronkite will start out talking about that America will go on — that we'll be OK," says Jim Chabin, president of the Academy. "We're asking him to put it into perspective. He got us through the Kennedy assassination, Vietnam and Watergate. He's been with us
for 40 years, so we thought that this was the best way."
EMMY AWARD
Immediately following the Sept. 11 terrorist attack, the Emmys, which were scheduled for the following Sunday, where rescheduled for Oct. 7, the longest postponement ever of a major awards show. And just as quickly, the rumor mill went into overdrive, with word spreading that they would eventually be canceled and the winners just announced, or that a black carpet would replace the traditional red one that celebrities walk down on their way into Shrine Auditorium.
The show is going on, but viewers will be quick to spot changes. The red carpet will be there, but the fan bleachers have been removed. Joan Rivers' fashion talk will probably be out of favor even more than usual since many celebrities are opting for business suits over formal attire. Most post-show bashes are canceled, and the annual Governor's Ball now carries a unity theme.
There will be tributes to victims and rescue workers, including a moment of silence for "Frasier" producer David Angell, who died along with his wife when his plane hit
one of the towers. A major donation pledge is scheduled for announcement, and, most tellingly, the event will be simulcast from both Los Angeles and New York.
That allows for the donation declaration to actually be made in New York City, as well as giving jittery East Coast industry members a chance to attend without flying to L.A.
Security, with help from the FBI, will be extremely tight. And there is still no confirmation on which celebrities are willing to venture out of their homes on such a high-profile night.
"There have been no firm 'no's,'" Chabin says. "But we're all so devastated. Who wants to call someone who's lost people and ask them to come to the awards? That's like asking them to come to Disneyland. I'm not going to ask ('Sopranos' actor) James Gandolfini, who was out there one day talking to the fireman, to come to the Emmys. That's
not a phone call I'd like to make. People are upset and we need to give them time."
Imperfect attendance
The New York telecast will have some awards presented there, so it allows major nominees, like the casts of "The Sopranos" and "Sex and the City," to be on hand. Although the "Sex" cast members recently hinted that they might fly out to L.A., right now it's anybody's guess as to who will end up where. That's fine with Chabin, who admits that planning for this year's Emmys will go right down to the wire.
"We're still waiting for the creative packages to come in to determine which one will be on the telecast," says Chabin, a Hutchinson native and Kansas University graduate. "Usually, that would have been done weeks ago. But we'll be making decisions on the show up to Saturday night."
"The mood of the country is changing every day, so we're working on those changes every day, trying to gauge how people are thinking and feeling."
He adds, "We have to decide on how festive it should be. It's not a party atmosphere, so we are sitting here the week of the show not knowing what to think. We don't want to go over the top. Life goes on. We want people to feel good watching the show, not crying for three hours. This is the toughest thing I've ever had to do in my life."
Host DeGeneres has stuck with the show, despite the almost Herculean task she faces of setting the proper mood for an entire industry.
"She deserves an Emmy, and she hasn't stepped onstage, yet. She's devoted to getting it right," Chabin says. "It isn't what she signed on for, but I think she's the right person and the audience will be with her when she comes out
onstage, because no one would want to trade places with her for 28 gazillion dollars."
It's too soon to tell how this will ultimately affect viewers, but recent ratings indicate a preference for lighter fare. "Friends" opened last week to near record ratings, trouncing the reality programs which had regularly been beating the comedy.
"A lot of people are looking
for kinder shows," Chabin says. "As magnificent as reality programs have been in being interesting to watch, I wonder how the public will feel? They've seen the horror and evil that men do, so some shows and plotlines are no longer fun to watch. TV is not going to come back in three or six months and be the same. This has affected what TV will be."

Giving aid and comfort to the enemy Weaknesses in Microsoft application provide plenty of back doors for vandals
Michael Newman
OTLINE POLICE LINE DO NOT CROSS CALL TIPS H
When my friend Ray first moved to Wichita to shoot television news in the early 80s, the station would dispatch a crew on every drive-by shooting. They were new and shocking. By the time he left for a network job in New York, he didn't even look up when word of one came over the scanner. They were no longer newsworthy, and where there was once shock and wonderment, there now was just a callous indifference. So it has become with computer viruses.
Spinning the Web
mnewman@themagonline.com
The trouble with viruses, worms. Trojan horses and other malicious computer code, is that as the novelty has worn off and our guard has been lowered, the virulence of these programs has continued to escalate.
Only in comic books do master criminals conceive of crime sprees to outdo all previous crime sprees. One more drive-by is just one more. But each new virus attempts to outdo all that have come before. In this, the Nimda (admin spelled backwards) has succeeded.
Nobody really took the FBI seriously back in August when the agency warned that the "Code Red" virus might seriously degrade the performance of the Internet. Then on Tuesday, Sept. 18, while the world was still following just one news story, it looked like maybe it had happened, and perhaps a Code Red variant had actually slowed the Net and disabled some sites completely.
What was really going on was much worse. Previous attacks that have exploited end-user's blithe disregard for security, ignorance, blind faith and stupidity to replicate itself, often but not always exploited weaknesses in software design. This critter was capable of preying on not only the innocent, but also the diligent.
Seeing Red
It's axiomatic that even those that regularly upgrade our virus scanning software are potentially vulnerable to viruses newer than the most recently available updates. The key to protecting ourselves is to engage in practices that minimize the opportunity for a new variant to become active on our machines. Typically this has meant being extremely cautious with files we download from the Web, and even more so with attached files we receive with e-mail.
While the sloppy and stupid behavior of computer users might seem to be a reliable vector for virus writers to exploit, this crafty lot remained vigilant for even better mechanisms for spreading infection. They began finding them in the convenience features that Microsoft was engineering into consumer software.
Ever since it was discovered that Microsoft Outlook Express e-mail program's automation features could be exploited to distribute copies of infected files so they seemed to be sent from a trusted source, this has been a core component of most subsequent viruses. The solution, for many of us anyway, was simple: We just stayed the heck away from Outlook Express and continued to be cautious about any attachments we received.
Like Code Red, Nimda seeks out and infects Web servers running Microsoft's IIS server software. Then it does two new and very insidious things. Where Code Red was satisfied to replace the
front page of a Web site with a brag page telling visitors that Code Red had succeeded there, Nimda uses the flaws in IIS to further propagate itself. First, it replicates itself onto the attacked Web server. Second, it appends Javascript code onto pages delivered by that server which will attempt to send the user the infected file.
This is where things get really ugly. PC users that employ versions of Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser earlier than version 5.5 have browsers that may automatically execute the download of the file without first asking the user's approval. Once on the user's machine, the program will exploit the flaws in Outlook Express.
You might well wonder what the purpose of an attack like this is. 'Because they can' seems to be the best explanation. This is what's known as a "proof of concept" attack. It's a demonstration that the design and theory behind the program is sound and workable.It's also, I suppose,the
satisfaction of tweaking Microsoft; brilliant, outsider programmers showing their ability to outthink the insiders and playing to their fellow evil geniuses.
Gates crasher
Have you spotted the trend here? Nimda's success turns on successfully abusing flawed Microsoft IIS servers, flawed Microsoft Outlook Express email programs and flawed Microsoft Internet Explorer browsers. Yes, it also relies on or exploits people not using or updating anti-virus software, opening infected attachments and of course failing to install patches for flawed Microsoft applications. But the picture is ever clearer that the malicious hacker's three greatest assets are his or her own skill, the ignorance of average computer users and the hubris of Bill Gates.
I no longer believe that using Eudora and Netscape strikes a blow against the empire, but so far they've provided a better firebreak against viral conflagrations
than Microsoft's alternatives. Using them also reinforces my conviction that competition and diversity leads to better software than does market dominance by a single vendor.
It's clear that the federal courts and the Justice Department don't have the will under a conservative administration to engage in any serious antitrust efforts in the Microsoft case. And whether or not the law is on Bill Gates side, it might have turned out better for the regulators to have not fought him at all than to have fought him and lost. His demonstrated arrogance will only grow with victory, and we're already reaping what that attitude has sown in the form of some pretty lousy software with fewer and fewer alternatives.
Perhaps in the war against malicious hackers, as in the war on terrorism, it's time to stop drawing a distinction between the perpetrators and those that harbor them.

Road trip to Tonganoxie finds rural fixings at Bichelmeyer's
Aaron Lindberg/Journal-World Photo
BICHELMEYER'S STEAKHOUSE, 427 E. Fourth St. in Tonganoxie, offers a menu that ranges from sandwiches to steak and shrimp.
Diane Brook
Word of Mouth
Small towns, i.e., those without their own Wal-Mart, hold a regular, roughly semiannual seduction for me. I simply adore echoing through empty post offices and gripping about the impossibility of finding decent coffee. Anyway, I recently decided it was time to (temporarily) leave Lawrence for points littler, and so it happened that I braved a blinding rainstorm, complete with painful-to-the-paint-job hail, and headed north to Tonganoxie.
mag@ljworld.com
The good news about dining out in Tonganoxie is that the decision-making process was lightning-quick, and not because of the storm. Apart from fast food, there are about two choices. Bichelmeyer's Steakhouse, which is housed in an old mercantile building downtown, clearly seemed like the most interesting place. The bad news about dining out in Tonganoxie is that even the nicest place in town doesn't deliver a particularly gratifying dining experience.
Review
Rating:★★
The "complimentary collector's menu" offers a brief history of both the town of Tonganoxie and the Bichelmeyer brothers, who owned a sandwich shop here more than half a century ago. Just in case you're searching for an accountant or a veterinarian, local advertisements line the sides of the menu. (The most intriguing is for somewhere called Vannelli Limited, with an ad that sports a picture of a lighthouse and the words "Simplicities of Life," but nothing more, not even a phone number.)
The spacious interior of
Bichelmeyer's retains remnants of a time past, with a tin ceiling, stuffed bison head, and, most impressively, a massive wood bar. A piano player added a lively touch on one Friday night, but the TVs in the bar, which I consider a pernicious solution for atmosphere anyway, were broadcasting depressingly current events and thus failed to be either cheerful or escapist.
Our servers were better than the gum- and wise-cracking waitress variety, but were less than motivated. On one occasion, our waitress seemed not to make the connection that her performance bore a direct relation to her tip. Although she started out pleasantly enough, by dessert time she simply brought a tray, wordlessly rested it on the side of the table and stood there with a hint of impatience until we inquired what things were. When we asked her to come back in a minute, she passed our table several times (over the course of several minutes) before stopping again.
Our food was serviceable but spotty. An appetizer of sauteed button mushrooms was tasty but arrived at the table only lukewarm. An order of potato skins came with four slices, generously filled with potato, but even with toppings of cheese, bacon and green onions they were disappointingly blah.
It's what's for dinner
A classic surf and turf combined filet mignon with a lobster tail. Unfortunately the lobster was tough, and a ramekin of butter for dipping didn't make up for the fact that most of the lobster flavor had already been lost. The bacon-wrapped filet tasted fine, but was cooked mediumwell instead of medium. On another visit, the ribeye steak was cooked medium-rare instead of medium, and the cut seemed of only mediocre quality (although Bichelmeyer's does purport to use choice grade beef).
Some spicy cocktail sauce that accompanied an order of fried shrimp made this dish consumable enough. I wish, however, that there had been a little more care taken to ensure the contrast between a tender body and a crispy batter, rather than something that merely achieved the minimum standard.
Sandwiches on the menu are quite varied, including hamburgers, barbecued brisket, a french dip, fish, turkey and grilled chicken. I tried the pork tenderloin. Again: edible but little more. The portion was sizeable, but the bun soggy. Lettuce, tomato and a kicky red sauce were better than nothing but otherwise the condiments were squandered as opportunity to punch up both the appearance and taste of this sandwich.
Bichelmeyer's does little to improve its overall performance with side dishes. The onion rings and baked potato were merely average, while the mashed potatoes were downright awful: flavorless, to be sure, but also with a limp, watery texture that literally made me shudder. Both the potatoes and the brown gravy tasted suspiciously NOT from scratch.
Bichelmeyer's is ultimately a sort of hybrid between a local hangout and a nicer restaurant. It's a useful breed, particularly in small towns, but one that in this case doesn't exploit its unique position to develop either a distinct local character or deliver really yummy food. I'm not demanding innovation here, but I'd like to see better overall performance.
As a small-town steakhouse, Bichelmeyer's is satisfactory it may be the only place in town that's "worth a taste" but it doesn't strike me as worth the drive. At the very least, I'd pick a clear day.

JEREMY AUMAN is co-founder of Lawrence's independent troupe, Card Table Theatre
Lawrence theater enthusiast helps make a name for the town
Melissa Lacey/Journal-World Photo
By Mitchell J. Near
mnear@ljworld.com
In a city bustling with artists, musicians and actors, Jeremy Auman has provided a steady, quietly busy presence in the community. He acts, directs and writes, and at this point in his life, he has no plans to do anything else. Not that he doesn't dream big from time to time.
"Lawrence is always known as a music town," he says. "Right now St. Paul, Minn., of all places, is known as the cutting edge place for theater. And I think, why can't Lawrence be that. I don't mean to think that I can do that, but I think it would be nice to believe it's possible to maybe own my own theater, and stage shows whenever I wanted."
Auman may just be the guy to get it accomplished. As early as 1991, he had plans for an independent troupe, something he dubbed Card Table Theatre. After hooking up with playwright-actor-director Will Averill, Auman's dream became a reality. It took a little time, though.
"We used to talk about going away to Chicago or somewhere and starting a company, but we really didn't know much about managing a company. So we decided to start one here, since we knew people and had some support structures," he explains.
After nearly four years, Card Table has built quite a following. Even though the members come across as seat-of-their-pants performers, that's not exactly the case. In reality, the Card Table players take their craft quite seriously. The co-founders both have strong theater backgrounds, including numerous hours logged at Kansas University. Averill also developed his acting chops while working for his family at Apple Valley Theatre, and with their company, the Seem-To-Be Players, before launching his own career as a playwright.
Auman started out taking the academic approach but soon realized he'd rather be performing than teaching. He viewed college as a means to land a job, and when a slot opened with the Seem-To-Be's, he jumped at the chance to get back on stage, leaving school and never looking back.
"I have nothing against academics," he claims. "But I was studying to get a theater performance degree. When the work came along, I took it."
Auman's exposure to professional theater gave him a real taste of the performer's lifestyle, and he was hooked. He brings that love of the stage to his independent work. Following a careful game plan, his company stages a variety of productions, including broad comedy (such as the
popular "Victor Continental Theatre") and some particularly bawdy puppet shows. But they also do cutting-edge work, as well as plays by established writers like David Mamet.
"Some of our stuff is what I call 'beer and pretzels theater' it' s fun and it's successful and that allows us to do other work," he says.
Wrecking the résumé
Following a diverse path is second-nature to Auman. His own acting career shows a strong preference for original productions by new artists. He's performed in several new plays including "The Diviners," "April in Akron" and "Rough Stock," along with more popular fare like "The Grapes of
Wrath" and "Assassins."
"Someone told me that I was ruining my résumé by having so many new works on it that no one had ever heard of," Auman says. "But I like being involved in performing a character for the first time. Everyone has done 'Hamlet.'"
Along the way he's written plays, and for a couple of years he's been off stage, directing new works by young playwrights. He's also helped KU's English Alternative Theatre take "Bunnies," to Washington D.C.'s Kennedy Center as part of the American College Theatre Festival last year. Since then, he's been back on stage, but found himself roped into directing more shows for the fall season, including EAT's one-acts, "Running with
the Big Dogs" and "Mourning Glorie," at the Lawrence Arts Center this month. Returning to his favorite subject of independent theater, for Auman there is no such thing as too many playhouses in town. His group has helped other upstart companies by working with them, and by just showing up as supportive audience members.And he wants to involve more people who may not get a lot of performing opportunities.
"We're trying to pull in new people. Two hundred actors audition at KU for maybe 40 or 50 roles," he says. "So there are a lot of good people who don't get cast. We're trying to reach out to those people."

NEWS OF THE WEIRD
In September, Tokyo's Mainichi Daily News reported that a 25-year-old bulimic woman from Toyoda, Japan, was arrested for massive violations of the country's Waste Disposal Act after being identified as the person who has, for more than a year, been illegally dumping about 60 pounds a week of vomit that she had collected in plastic bags. She said, according to police, "I didn't want to throw away the vomit near my home, so I took it to faraway places."
By Chuck Shepherd
A study reported in a September issue of the journal Nature presented good news and bad news about the sexual apparatus of the male earwig (which is, according to a dictionary, a "dark and slender nocturnal insect of the order Dermaptera, having horned pincers at the rear that can rise up like a scorpion's"). The bad news: The organ is thin and brittle and frequently breaks off. (Ends of penises are sometimes found inside females.) The good news: Researchers say that earwigs are equipped with a fully functional spare organ.
Boxer Tony Ayala Jr., 38, whose promising career (27-0, 24 knockouts) was cut short in 1983 by a rape conviction for which he served 16 years in prison, won a big comeback fight in San Antonio in July by gaining a 10-round decision in a bout during which he wore a court-ordered
court ordered ankle bracelet so that EXTRA VEWS leaves h
authorities could monitor his whereabouts. (In December, Ayala had been arrested on a charge of burglary with intent to commit a sexual assault; he pleaded guilty to lesser charges in September. Ayala won the July fight despite a shoulder weakened by a bullet hole, put there by the woman whose house he had allegedly broken into.)
Wedding bell blues
Marie Solomon, 41, was arrested at a friend's wedding in July for loudly and incessantly yelling out reasons why the couple should not marry (Bridgeport, Conn.). Groom Howard Brown, 31, was arrested in August after allegedly shooting a guest at his wedding reception because the guest had brought too many friends (San Antonio). Newly weds Marcia Alarcon and Carlos Alarcon-Schroder were jailed in May after brawling over whose parents they would visit first (Des Moines, Iowa). Bride Kathy Naylor, 28, was arrested in
August after following home a guest from her wedding reception and reigniting an earlier brawl (Crystal River, Fla.).
In earnestly reported stories on Aug. 3 and Aug.7, the Wichita (Kan.) Eagle informed the community that more than a thousand 30-inch-long dried corn husk
leaves had floated down from the sky onto the town over the
Can't possibly be true
weekend. Two meteorologists said that no weather phenomenon could have accounted for it. To add to the mystery, a Wichita-area evangelical ministry had woven "corn husks" into its pro-life message in mid-July and consequently took the phenomenon as a sign. Townspeople's favorite guess (though no evidence has yet been offered): an elaborate (and illegal) airplane prank by University of Nebraska football fans.
A 50-year-old man from Magog, Quebec, and his two sons, ages 26 and 23, were arrested in June and charged with a total of 47 sexual-assault-related counts. The victim was the 21-year-old daughter (sister of the younger men), who, according to police, had been molested regularly for 17 years and whose ordeal was finally brought to an end by nurses when the three men could not even refrain from molesting the woman in her Montreal hospital room, where she was undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer.
A serious article in a recent issue of the British Dental Journal warned people of the dangers involved in using foreign objects for relief of hemorrhoids, pointing to the experience of one patient who said he used a toothbrush for that purpose but inserted it too far and had to have it removed at a hospital by biopsy forceps.
- In a May crime spree in Edmonton, Alberta, shoplifters hit several Blockbuster Video stores, but the only items missing were all 81 copies of the Sean Connery movie "Finding Forrester" and (even more puzzlingly) 12 copies of Adam Sandler's "Little Nicky."
Kids growing up fast
At rodeos across the country (such as Florida's Okeechobee Rodeo over Labor Day weekend), kids as young as 3 ride, broncolike, for endurance (up to 4 seconds) on sheep ("mutton busting"), before inevitably acquiring the rodeo experience of being dumped on their backsides. And in June, state investigators examining Valdez (Alaska) Community Hospital practices found that several physicians had routinely brought their kids (from teen-agers down to infants) into operating rooms and offices while treating patients; among the episodes was one girl "assisting" her father in placing a cast and another in which a doctor's 4-year-old became frightened at a patient's shrieks during a hip-manipulation procedure and caused a major incident.
People with issues
From the July 18 Police Blotter in the Williamson County Sun (Georgetown, Tex.): "At a grocery store on the 600 block of Austin Avenue, a 27-year-old lawn specialist from Round Rock was arrested at 12:46 a.m. on charges of public lewdness. (A) male employee found the male customer between two aisles with his shorts and underwear pulled down around his ankles. The man was bent over and inserting a can of Big and Sexy brand hair spray lubricated with Suave lotion into his rectum. He told arresting officers he was attempting to sexually gratify himself. He was taken to jail."
Least competent criminals
The robber of the One Stop Grocery in Kenai, Alaska, in July got away. The store was packed with people at 9 p.m. when the man suddenly appeared with his hand in his pocket pointing a "gun" at the clerk and shouted, "Everybody freeze, don't move. You know what that means." However, everyone ignored him. He snatched some beer from the cooler and shouted again, "You people don't understand. I really mean it." One customer told him he could get in trouble talking like that. Finally, the man cussed a bit, complained again that nobody was listening to him, and left with the beer. And in June, Kevin Shegog, 41, was charged in Highland Heights, Ky., with eight gas station robberies when police finally found a witness who could identify the getaway car: It was the one with the license plate SHEGOG.
A long day at the DMV
South Carolina's Department of Motor Vehicles has recently pared services, creating longer lines, and it also has privatized its janitorial service, which now makes an appearance only once a day. In a July incident at the Fairforest Road office in Spartanburg, an elderly man had an incontinence accident while waiting in line to renew his driver's license. Neither he nor his adult daughter waiting with him wanted to lose their place, so he had tried to ignore his urgency as long as he could, but ultimately, his bowels won, and with no one volunteering to clean the floor, lines snaked around the mess for hours. However, the man and his daughter stayed in line. Said the office's deputy director, "You can't keep someone from getting a driver's license for incontinence."
Also, in the last month
While celebrating her son's homecoming from college, Karyn Aikin suffered first and second degree burns on her face, incurred by igniting a shot glass of 151-proof rum and trying to swallow it (Newfane, N.Y.) Professor Merryn Dineley announced he will soon start selling a historicrecipe beer in the Orkney Islands (Scotland) that is flavored with a trace of baked animal droppings (Manchester England). Connecticut state Rep. Kevin Ryan, freshly sentenced to four months' hard time as a recidivist DUI, said he can very well conduct his legislative business from his cell and does not intend to resign. Stanford University medical professor Simon Stertzer, who just finalized the deal to buy the Palomino Club strip joint in North Las Vegas, said he plans to funnel all the profits from the club into his research on cardiovascular medicine.

Gas masks selling out, might not save lives
By Sarah Finks and Matt Gehrke Special to the Kansan
Surplus stores in the Lawrence area are sold out of gas masks following the September 11th attacks.
September 14th Rebecca Moeller, employee of Surplus City & Tool House, 1849 E. 1450 Rd., said the store hadn't carried gas masks before, but recently ordered 100. The store is still waiting on a shipment that was supposed to arrive last Friday but has been delayed because the masks have to be shipped from Israel.
Local experts say that although a biological attack is possible, gas masks might not be the best defense against it. Paula Phillips, the director for Douglas County Emergency Management, 1100 Massachusetts St., said that brochures offered different ways to stay safe in a biological attack.
One pamphlet advises about "In-Place Sheltering," which says that staying inside a building is sometimes the best defense against "accidental release of toxic chemicals."
Phillips said that it was best to be prepared, but mindful of the risks.
"Anyone that wants to do harm, can do harm," she said.
The planning for biological or chemical attacks changed after the 1993 World Trade Center bombing to include all types of government agencies, Phillips said. Before 1993, emergency planning focused on sheltering and feeding the victims of natural disasters like floods, tornadoes and earthquakes.
"It has become more mainstream, getting all the responders included: EMS, sheriffs and hospitals," Phillips said.
The state of Kansas is also prepared to respond better to biological and chemical attacks through the recently created HAN network.
Kay Kent, the Lawrence-Douglas County health department director, said the Kansas Department of Health and Environment is building HAN, a federally funded secure Internet connection which links local environmental and health agencies throughout the state.
KDHE and Kansas Emergency Management, a division of the adjutant general's department, held a biological warfare scenario in Topeka 13 days before the terrorist attacks.
Kent said the exercise helped authorities practice dealing with a biological emergency in Kansas.
Alan Wisman, owner of Einstein's Outdoor Outfitters, a military surplus store at 1820 SW 10th Avenue in Topeka, said he sold out of his stock of gas masks a week after the attacks of September 11th.
"We carry gas masks year 'round for plumbers and construction workers," Wisman said. "That's why we always stock them. But we don't stock hundreds of them because they're not in demand, except like right now."
He said he had received inquiries from in and out of state about the quality and price of gas masks being sold on the Internet. He said a fair price for a mask was less than $20.
"People should buy with a certain amount of skepticism," Wisman said. "There's no way to tell which chemical a gas mask will protect you from."
He said the gas masks sold to the general population were not current issue and might not be effective against a recently made chemical.
"Buy a flag instead of a gas mask," Wisman said. "Be more hopeful than fearful."

Kansas faculty and students have mixed emotions about U.S. strikes
The Associated Press
T thunderous explosions and the rattle of anti-aircraft fire were heard yesterday in the Afghanistan capital of Kabul, as the United States and Britain launched military retaliation against Osama bin Laden and his Taliban supporters.
The first of five explosions occurred in Kabul at 8:57 p.m. local time, or 11:27 a.m. CDT. The attacks came when it was dark in Kabul and when a curfew was in effect throughout the city. The explosions caused the power to go out across the city almost immediately
In Washington, President Bush said U.S. and British military forces were taking "targeted actions" to weaken the Taliban's military capabilities and the al-Qaida terror movement led by bin Laden.
"We are beginning another front in our war against terrorism so freedom can prevail over fear," said Bush representative Ari Fleischer.
University of Kansas faculty members and students had concerns and mixed emotions after learning about the U.S. attacks.
Thomas Heilke, associate profes
sor of political science, said he was concerned that innocent Afghan civilians would be killed and that the attacks would lead to more violence.
"I think the U.S. leadership feels compelled to use violence because there is a lot of pressure on them to use it." Heilke said.
Chiemela Enyia, Chicago senior said that he didn't feel good about the attacks and that they would only make matters worse.
"We don't know the extent of the danger we are in," Enyia said. "There is going to be a lot of innocent people from both sides die in this."
Sangeetha Lourdes, Malaysia senior, said that although she felt the attacks were necessary, she was worried there were going to be innocent lives lost.
"I am concerned it is going to start a war and ruin diplomatic ties and harm relationships with other countries," she said.

Nic Perez, Houston sophomore, said he was glad to hear about the attacks in Afghanistan.
"I don't want us to go to war, but I want whoever attacked the World Trade Center to be bombed," Perez said.

By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
"He had a Cardinals plate on the Explorer," his wife Laura Katch said. "He would go to the baseball games when he could get there."

Open house welcomes students and strangers
By Eve Lamborn Kansan staff writer
Mika Hama stood in front of the Applied English Center table Saturday passing out candy and explaining why a huge world map behind her was covered with push pins.
"These are all the countries in the world who have students that go to KU," the Nagano, Japan, graduate student told passers-by.
The Open House was designed to allow people in the community to see the diversity of schools and departments at the University.
Waves of stroller-pushing parents and teen-agers toting bags from the Kansas Union Bookstore paused at her table, accepted Hershey's Kisses and chatted with her during the University of Kansas' Open House.
PRAYING FOR THE PRIEST OF GOD
Informational booths and activities lined Jayhawk Boulevard, which was
closed to traffic on Saturday.
Events during the first-time Open House included tours of buildings, lectures from KU professors and a youth basketball clinic in Allen Fieldhouse.
"I think, for doing it the first time, we had a great crowd," he said. "It was a nice atmosphere."
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said he thought the events came together well.
J. E.WILSON/KANSAN
Margey Frederick, associate director of admissions and coordinator of the KU Visitor Center, said the Open House would become an annual event.
Children play in a trampoline tent in front of the Kansas Union on Saturday during the KU Open House. Activities inside the Union included lectures from professors and prize drawings at the Kansas University Bookstore.
Lisa Ramirez-Morgan, Lawrence resident, said she came to the Open House with her children — Taylor, 10, and Molly, 8—and their friend Jocelyn Drano, 7, at 10 a.m.
They were still on campus at 2:30 p.m., seated on the curb aside Jayhawk Boulevard waiting for the Hispanic
Heritage Parade to begin.
The children, between bites of popcorn, said they had played basketball at Allen Fieldhouse, visited a museum, played games at the Kansas Union and eaten sno-cones.
"It's been an all-day affair," Lisa
Ramirez-Morgan said. "There's a lot of diversity here, and that's the part we enjoy the most."

STATE
Supreme Court to decide legal gender of person
TOPEKA — The Kansas Supreme Court will soon decide whether J'Noel Gardiner is a widow or a man.
The court has agreed to hear a case that claims Gardiner's 1994 sex-change operation invalidates her marriage — and her right to her deceased husband's estate.
When she met Marshall Gardiner in 1998, she was 40, and he was 85 and a wealthy Leavenworth stockbroker and former state representative.
He died without a will in 1999. Usually, the state would divide his $2.5 million estate between his widow and his children.
But Marshall Gardiner's son from a previous marriage, Joe Gardiner, wants it all. His lawsuit claims that J'Noel Gardiner is still a man under Kansas law, and thus her marriage to Marshall Gardiner was null and void.
A judge agreed in January 2000, writing that J'Noel Gardiner "was born a male and remains a male for purposes of marriage under Kansas law."
In May, a three-judge panel of the Kansas Court of Appeals reopened the issue of the validity of the marriage, saying: "We can no longer be permitted to conclude who is male or who is female by the amount of facial hair one has or the size of one's feet."
When the state Supreme Court agreed to hear the case on Sept. 26, it did not say why. The court has not set a hearing date.
More bilingual police officers being recruited for Wichita
WICHITA — A boom in Wichita's non- English-speaking population has the police department actively recruiting bilingual officers.
"It's a big problem when residents feel uneasy about police because they feel can't communicate," said Deputy Chief Tom Stolz. "And it makes it difficult for us to investigate crimes."
Only 17 of the department's 650 officers serve as official translators — meaning they've passed language proficiency tests and are summoned to calls involving a language barrier.
Of those, 11 speak Spanish, two Vietnamese, two Arabic, one Laotian and one Cambodian.
Police recruiters flock to cultural events, such as a recent cultural night at a Wichita Wranglers game, to set up booths and spread information about joining the force.
The best recruiting tool may be the extra $10 per hour bilingual officers get when they answer translation calls. The money was part of a 1999 plan to attract more bilingual officers.
Officer Frank Silva, who speaks Spanish, might hear four calls a day seeking a translator.
Silva, a Puerto Rican originally from New York City, considers his Spanish a good tool in making the Hispanic community more comfortable.

National Guard replaces Minnesota state workers
The Associated Press
ST. PAUL, Minn. — With state workers ranging from soup-servers to nut-tighteners on strike, Minnesota's week-long walkout may go down as one of the most expansive public-sector strikes in recent history.
Minnesota is one of only about 10 states in which its employees can legally go on strike.
Based on the 22,000 workers who stayed off the job Oct. 1, Minnesota's strike is the second-largest public walkout since 1990, said Michael Cimini, an economist with the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics.
National Guard troops have been brought in to take over some of the duties of striking workers at psychiatric treatment centers, nursing homes and group homes.
It is unusual for states to call out the Guard in strikes, and when they do, troops are generally used in policing roles, said Dennis Nolan, a professor of labor law at the University of South Carolina.
But few strikes present the sort of public safety concerns that Minnesota's does, he said. Striking workers include social workers, psychologists, nurses' aides, food workers, driver's exam instructors, fiscal auditors, animal trainers and janitors, among others.
"I have not heard of a strike this broad, certainly not in the last 10 or 15 years," said Michael Handel, a sociology professor who specializes in labor issues at the University of Wisconsin.
Women quit health program
The Associated Press
the results, reported in the October 1 Archives of Internal Medicine, show how hard it is to get people to stick with healthy lifestyle changes, even if their initial intentions are good.
CHICAGO — More than 23,000 women participated in a free nationwide health program called "Choose to Move," and most who finished significantly improved their diets and activity levels. There's one catch: Nearly 20,000 may have dropped out.
The ongoing American Heart Association program, started in 1998, involves ordering a free handbook with tips on how to gradually incorporate better nutrition and 30 minutes of exercise into daily life over a 12-week period. Participants
are asked to send in progress report cards during the program and at the end.
Researchers who studied the program's 1999 phase, when 23,171 signed up, call it a success and say getting 3,775 to complete it was no small feat.
"Although the results for those who completed the program are promising, the limited completion rate underscores the need to continue to develop longterm health behavior maintenance programs for diverse populations," they said.
sun, the researchers acknowledged the program's limitations.
The program targets women aged 25 and older and is designed to fight the nation's high rates of heart disease; obesity and inactivity are contributing factors.

Hurricane hits Jaimaca, kills three in Dominican Republic
KINGSTON, Jamaica — Hurricane Iris whirled past Jamaica yesterday, uprooting trees but sparing the island the full fury of its 85 mph winds, as it churned on toward Mexico and Belize.
The hurricane killed a family of three in the Dominican Republic on Saturday when the retaining wall on a hillside collapsed, crushing their house.
Iris had earlier threatened to make a direct hit in Jamaica, but instead passed to the south. After heavy rains, the sun emerged from the departing clouds.
"The full-fledged hurricane was not over Jamaica," said Lixion Avila, a forecaster at the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami.
Jamaica and the Cayman Islands remained under a hurricane warning. Mexico posted a hurricane watch for the east coast of the Yucatan south of Cabo Catoche, the Hurricane Center said, and Belize also posted a hurricane watch from Belize City northward.
Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Jerry was headed toward the islands of the southeast Caribbean with winds of 45 mph, and it was expected to strengthen.

New building to have Dole's name, papers
Former senator visits home state, addresses attacks
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
Bob Dole returned to the University of Kansas on Friday to help break ground for a new institute bearing his name.
The Robert J. Dole Institute for Public Service and Public Policy will house some of Dole's transcripts and papers accumulated during his years in office.
"Hopefully, it will encourage young people to become involved with politics." Dole said.
The former U.S. Senate majority leader and Republican presidential nominee cracked several jokes about his recent appearance in a Pepsi commercial and made other light-hearted remarks about running for president five years ago.
Dole managed to keep a serious tone though, as he spoke about the recent terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C. to an audience of around 500.

"We always knew that it would be called the Dole Institute," Hemenway said during the opening ceremony. "Senator Dole has influenced public policy for years."
Smith, a well-respected presidential historian, said that the institute would be a nonpartisan building available to all.
"Public service is our mantra just as it has been Senator Dole's life long mission," Smith said.

That would appear to make the final word "no" — although some opponents of the $861 million project still haven't relaxed.
"I have the sense that the commission slammed the door shut and threw the lock on it," said state Sen. Karin Brownlee, R-OLathe.
"But you never say never," Brownlee said. "You just want to keep looking back over your shoulder"
The approval process has been controlled by state legislation that gave Oz access to state-issued bonds for the project.
The commission's vote Thurs
day to end any further review of the project stopped that approval process.
Lt. Gov. Gary Sherrer, also Kansas' secretary of commerce, said the state would respect the commission's decision.
"The local government has a right in a project of this magnitude to be part of the process," Sherrer said.
"I don't think this is an appropriate case where we could sacrifice the community for the good of the state," he said.
Don Brown, a spokesman for Gov. Bill Graves, said the state would not work around Johnson County for Oz.
"We're not in the process of developing options for the Oz folks," Brown said. "That's their task, not ours."
The commission on Thursday rejected a feasibility study for the Oz company's proposal to
acquire the Sunflower Army Ammunition Plant near DeSoto from the federal government, clean up environmental contamination there and build its theme park on part of the 9,065-acre site.
To use the state legislation giving it access to millions of dollars in state-issued bonds, known as Star bonds, Oz needed the commission's approval.

Lawrence residents and city planners are going in circles over the roundabout issue.
Roundabouts and traffic-calming circles are similar in design and function, but differ in size.
The Lawrence City Commission passed two resolutions to build a traffic-calming circle at 17th and New Hampshire streets and the city's fourth roundabout at 19th street and Barker Avenue.
A roundabout is a raised island in the center of an intersection that directs traffic counterclockwise to promote pedestrian safety.
A traffic-calming circle is much smaller and can be built without purchasing surrounding property.
Jane Campbell, Lawrence resident, lives on the corner of 17th and New Hampshire streets. She said she used to live in Europe and the roundabouts were highly effective there. She said in the United States, however, roundabouts didn't work.
"I have two complaints." Campbell said. "One, people don't know how they work. Two, they are not big enough for the traffic flow."
Campbell said she wasn't aware of the proposed roundabout in her neighborhood and said she didn't want it to be built.
"I would veto it," Campbell said. "I've only known of one accident here not so long ago. I think a four-way stop would be just as effective."
Residents at 19th street and Barker Avenue said the existing four-way stop was sufficient to control traffic. LeaMarie Herron said she hadn't noticed any traffic problems since she moved into her house at the corner of the intersection.
She said the real problem in her neighborhood was the volume of traffic that came through. She said a roundabout wouldn't decrease the number of cars.
"I don't see a need for it," Herron said. "It's a solution looking for a problem."
David Woosley, city traffic
"It's a solution looking for a problem."
LeaMarie Herron Lawrence resident
engineer, acknowledged that there had been some negative feedback. But he said the benefits of traffic circles outweighed the drawbacks.
"I think they're controversial because they're something new and people aren't used to them," Woosley said. "We've had quite a few positive reactions about the ones we built this summer."
The intersection at 19th street and Barker Avenue saw an average of 14,000 cars pass through in a 24-hour period, according to a study of traffic signals conducted by the city commission. Nineteen accidents have taken place there since 1997.
City engineers said replacing stop signs with roundabouts reduced the number of crashes while improving traffic flow.
City planners were so pleased with the results, they built two more.
Three roundabouts exist in Lawrence. The first was built at Monterey Way as an experiment to see how it would work, Woosley said.
"The two we built this summer were to address specific problems," Woosley said. "One is in front of a school and as the area develops we'll have students crossing the streets and we thought that would be safer for them."
The third roundabout was built at 8th and Michigan streets.
The Chi Omega fountain at the University of Kansas operates like a roundabout, but is technically not considered one. It only operated like a modern roundabout after yield signs were installed, said Tom Waechert, assistant director of design and construction management at KU.
Andy Miller, St. Louis freshman, said when he rode his bike on campus, drivers usually didn't pay attention to the yield signs at the fountain.
ROUNDABOUTS:
Locations of roundabouts:
Monterey Way and
Harvard Road,
24th Street and
Inverness Drive,
8th and Michigan streets
Location of new roundabout:
19th Street and Barker Avenue
Location of new traffic calming circle: 17th and New Hampshire streets
"Roundabouts don't really suit the purpose for all users on the street," he said.
The city's engineering department is getting ready to hire consultants to design the new roundabout and traffic calming circle. Construction is scheduled to begin later this year and end sometime in 2002.

EDITORIAL Commission must not repeat history's mistakes
Minority recruitment faces many challenges that spelled doom before
In 1990, a task force was created at the University of Kansas to increase the number of African-American students on campus. Despite continued efforts, the group fell well below its goal for four straight years.
Despite this former group's failure, the Commission on the Status of Minorities of KU was formed this year. It's a team comprised of approximately 15 professors and students that combines the different multicultural organizations on campus into one cohesive unit. Its goal is simple: increase the number of minority students attending the University.
Professor Fred Rodriguez, commission chairman, describes the effort as a never-ending struggle. He said there was no level at which KU would have an acceptable number of minority students and that recruitment should not end.
justin Mills, one of the commission members, explained that the first goal was to raise the percentage of minority students at KU to the percentage in the state. With about 10 percent of KU's 28,000 students listed as minorities compared to the 15.5 percent in the state this is indeed a lofty goal.
It seems unfair to critique an organization that has, so far, had only one meeting. Yet potential problems and issues must be addressed before they continue toward their goal.
First, the commission is pushing for changes by the 2002-2003 school year, but they don't plan to have anything set in motion until late winter/early spring. By then, it will be too late. SATs need to be taken in December or January and applications for next year's class are due by April 1. If this commission cannot get out of the planning stage and into full swing quickly, they will have missed their window of opportunity for 2002.
Second, this commission has no power to offer scholarships or grants. Further, they have no actual influence over the admissions committee. Rodriguez stated that he wanted to pull some money out of the Coke scholarships to offer to potential minority students, but there is no guarantee that money will be so allotted. Without those things, the commission will have no way to persuade minorities to attend KU, nor will it have any way to ensure those who do wish to attend will be accepted.
Third, the commission's definition of minority excludes Middle Eastern students. Mills explained that those students fall under the "international" category. This ignores the fact that many Middle Easterners were born in the USA. Besides, the commission's goal is diversity and, in light of recent events, having more students of the Islamic faith on campus can be of great benefit.
The aspiration of this commission is clearly a worthy one. But the potential problems need to be addressed or it will fail as surely as did its predecessor in 1990.

Dissent, discussion and diplomacy the civilized response to terrorism
I write this column to clarify several misconceptions regarding the actions and convictions of Lawrence-area peace activists.
The purpose of our efforts is to engender awareness of pacifism through open discussion and nonviolent protests. We do not think, as was recently asserted by the KU Objectivists' president, that the terrorist attacks were victories for "anti-capitalistic" causes, nor do we think of peace as "sitting on one's hands" and "resigning oneself to forever cleaning up after the wreckage of terrorists and mourning the loss of loved ones."
Rather, we view the September 11 terrorist attacks as crimes against humanity, which should be righted through extradition, international diplomacy, sensible nation-building, and comprehensive humanitarian efforts.
It is easy to adhere, particularly in the wake of adversity, the repugnant juggernaut of fervid nationalism neatly dividing the world, to borrow the president's terms, into "us" and them." This is easy, but it belies the truth.

Afghanistan is a nation of extreme poverty, having endured ruthless wars for over two decades, with most of the population living in dilapidated shacks with no basic amenities. Millions of refugees, with nothing more than the rags they wear as property, are spilling over to Pakistan and Tajikistan. The average annual family income is a mere $178. Each year 293,000 children under the age of five perish from war, malnutrition, and disease. Eighty-eight percent of the population does not have access to clean drinking water. The worst drought in 30 years is plaguing the country, and forecasters anticipate an unusually bitter winter. Are these "them?" Are these our enemies?
Certainly we are not so naive to think that armed conflict is always
unwarranted, but we are not so unmerciful or reckless to assume that it is necessarily the most effective solution for promoting the greatest common good. We must harden our emotions with reason and pragmatism, so that we do not kill innocent men, women, and children by the impetuosity of our actions.
To this end, we espouse reasoned understanding over knee-jerk xenophobia, tempered passion over unbridled fury, international diplomacy over national bellicosity, civic discussion over political equivocation, and guarded pacifism over rash jingoism. Our actions and convictions are not based on ethnocentrism or bigotry, but are grounded in a most profound and sincere love of our country, the rights of dissent and discussion that it secures, and our forbears who had the temerity to uphold such freedoms. It is for these reasons that we protest, and for this reasons that we will continue to do so.

Terrorists don't understand diplomacy: Armed force the only way to reach them
Robert Chamberlain's commentary ("Professors are wrong - War is an option," Sept. 28) was a thoughtful reflection on the challenges that lay ahead of us. I am a progressive who seeks to avoid war and violence when possible. I favored some of the suggestions that were offered at the student forum that Robert and I attended sponsored by the Womyn's Empowerment Action Coalition.
The suggestions, outside of military action, that have most promise are ones now being used — cutting off financial resources of terrorists and providing assistance to civilian groups, similar to the Marshall plan. This plan would siphon off civilian support for the Taliban and other terrorist-sponsoring states and terrorist groups. It would care for the needs of peoples not responsible for destruction in America or in their countries and have been devastated by totalitarian rule and neverending warfare.
Robert is right. The West has been fighting terrorism for decades, and it has only seemed to spread rather than abate. The days of violence and warfare to achieve political ends, and of justifying such warfare against democratic governments, are over. This war, if it comes to that, signals an end to both this kind of violence and the

dramatic rhetoric that sustains it and seeks to give it intellectual legitimacy, whether in Northern Ireland, Palestine, Afghanistan, or in compounds even in compounds here at home.
Revolutions to achieve utopian fantasies are now no longer in bounds for democratic discussion. They threaten too much of what is good in democracies to be given legitimacy. There are many grievances between various factions in this war and in previous wars. But the lesson that we should all focus on immediately is that those grievances must be settled democratically — with military force if necessary, but by deliberation and persuasion when possible.
Too many progressives have rationalized the attacks around democratic grievances such as wealth inequalities, U.S. treatment of Iraqis during the Gulf War, stationing of troops in Saudi Arabia and Israeli treatment of Palestinians. There are some potentially legitimate grievances among these. But there are clearly legitimate grievances against the Afghanis, Palestinians, and Iraqis who have engaged in campaigns of terror against their
neighbors and their own peoples. There are also legitimate grievances against those who rationalize violence by cynicism about U.S., European, and Israeli actions.
But we resolve legitimate critiques democratically, either by persuasion or by the rule of law, not by rationalizing terrorism.
As someone who has spent much of his adult life working on issues of economic equity, progressive priorities are very important to me. But I know better — and others should know better — than to substitute violence for persuasion to address these needs.
America's effort seeks to retaliate, to end further violence by those terrorists who engaged in it and to signal to terrorists around the world that the days of violent revolution against democratic countries are over. It is a purpose we should all be supporting.
As a Democrat, I am very aware of our right and duty to dissent when we disagree with Administration policies. But we should exercise our dissent carefully and be sure that we consider the real consequences of our opinions before we implore others to act as we desire.
As a member of the armed forces, Robert may end up risking or giving his life for our right to debate this issue and even to stir the pot with dramatic rhetoric. We should all take care that he does not risk or give his life in vain.

Date-rape drugs tough to detect
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Between Sept. 16 and Sept. 27, three women filed police reports because they thought their drinks had been drugged at a Lawrence bar.
Lawrence police Sgt. Mike Pattrick said drugs such as Rohynpol, a sedative Ketamine and GHB, were sometimes detected after such reports were filed.
After alcohol, those three drugs are the most common "date-rape drugs," said Randall Rock, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
The drugs are odorless, colorless and tasteless, so it is difficult for people to know if their drinks have been drugged, Rock said.
Jessica Forman, Glencoe, Ill. freshman, said she had considered the possibility of her drink being drugged. She said to protect herself, she never left her drink unattended or accepted a drink unless she saw it poured into the glass.
Forman said she was familiar with the three main date-rape drugs. She said she had never been drugged.
"It's scary to think about," she said. "A lot of people wouldn't know where to go or what to do if they thought they'd been given something."
Rock said anyone who thought they'd been drugged should be tested for a date-rape drug.
He said Watkins doctors saw several students each semester who thought they had been given a date-rape drug.
But the tests, which are performed on blood and urine samples cost about $80 each. Checking for all three drugs could cost nearly $300.
Cathy Thrasher, chief pharmacist at Watkins, said those three drugs could remain in the system for up to 36 hours after they had been administered, depending on the amount of the dose and the size of the individual.
She said the tests were most effective when they were taken quickly, before the body could process and break down the drugs.
The three drugs are commonly used as date-rape drugs because they produce an amnesia-like state and a sense of timelessness.

They may also cause blackouts. That makes it difficult for those given the drug to know exactly what happened while the drug was in their system.

Thrasher said the drugs were not approved by the Food and Drug Administration, which meant they were illegal.
KYLE RAMSEY/KANSAN
Kathy Rose-Mockry, director of Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said anyone who believed they had been date raped or given a date-rape drug could go the center to get information or help.
She thought most of them came into the country from Mexico, because they were legal in other countries, such as Mexico and Canada.
The center also is looking for funding from the U.S. Department of Justice Violence Against Women Office to defer the cost of testing students for date-rape drugs.
Forman said she was glad to know there was a place on campus where students could go if they thought they had been drugged.
"We want women to feel protected and to feel that they don't have to live in fear," Rose-Mockry said.
The drugs do not have to be masked in alcohol, she said.
Thrasher said among the best advice she could give to those worried about date rape was never to accept a drink from anyone and not to drink anything they had not poured themselves.
The drugs are sometimes placed in nonalcoholic drinks, such as a glass of water.

Pope honors martyrs in front of thousands
VATICAN CITY — Pope John Paul II put seven people on the road to possible sainthood yesterday, beatifying a victim of the Nazis, an Armenian archbishop killed by the Ottoman Turks and five founders or members of religious orders.
Thousands of pilgrims gathered in a bright St. Peters' Square and cheered as the names of those who joined the ranks of the beatified were read out and their images unveiled on tapestries hung from the basilica.
The other martyr beatified yesterday was Ignazic Maloyan, an Armenian archbishop killed in 1915 during the Ottoman campaign to force Armenians out of eastern Turkey. The pope paid tribute to the victims of the campaign during his recent trip to Armenia.
Among them was Nikolaus Gross, a German father of seven who voiced opposition to the Nazis and edited a Catholic workers' newspaper that was shut down by the regime. Gross was executed in 1945 in a German prison.
Also recognized were Alfonso Maria Fusco, Italian founder of the Sisters of St. John the Baptist; Tommasso Maria Fusco, the Italian founder of the Institute of the Daughters of Charity of the Precious Blood; Emilie Tavernier Gamelin, founder of the Sisters of Providence of Montreal; Eugenia Picco, an Italian-born member of the Little Daughters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Maria; and Maria Euthymia Ueffing, a German member of the Sisters of Mercy.
With yesterday's ceremony, John Paul II has beatified 1,267 people — part of his effort to give the faithful many role models. He has elevated more than 450 to sainthood. In comparison, in the previous four centuries, 1,310 candidates were beatified and 300 raised to sainthood.
Because they did not die as martyrs, those five needed to have a miracle attributed to their intercession for them to be beatified. A second miracle is required for them to be made a saint.
The pope, 81, appeared well-rested, happily greeted bishops who came to kiss his ring and speaking clearly in several languages. He read from a podium that rested on the armrests of his chair, rather than from papers held in his hands, which tremble in a symptom of Parkinson's disease.
"Our renowned brothers, now elevated to the glory of the exulted, knew how to translate their indomitable faith in Christ into an extraordinary experience of love toward God and service to their neighbors," John Paul II told the crowd.
John Paul II also issued a threefold prayer yesterday, directed at the victims of a Black Sea plane crash last week and the terrorist attacks in the United States, as well as peace efforts in Colombia. He spoke before the United States and Britain launched attacks on targets in Afghanistan.

Bin Laden: America not secure until troops leave Middle East
The Associated Press
CAIRO, Egypt — Osama bin Laden praised God for the terrorist attacks that toppled the World Trade Center and damaged the Pentagon and said the United States was "full of fear," in a videotaped statement after the strike launched by the United States and Britain against Afghanistan yesterday.
"America was hit by God in one of its softest spots. America is full of fear from its north to its south, from its west to its east. Thank God for that," bin Laden said in the video shown yesterday on Al-Jazeera, the Arabic satellite station.
The taped comments appeared to be made in daylight, which would mean the video
was made before last night's attack on Afghanistan.
"I swear by God ... neither
"I swear America nor the people who live in it will dream of security before we live it in Palestine, and not before all the infidel armies leave the land of Muhammad, peace by upon him,"仁贝兰萨 said.
bin Laden said.

bin Laden: says America is full of fear
After the attacks had begun, an official from Afghanistan's ruling Taliban militia said both bin Laden and Taliban leader
Mullah Mohammed Omar had survived the initial wave of the attack.
It was the first time bin Laden has spoken himself about the Sept. 11 attacks, though he has issued denials of responsibility through intermediaries.
The video opened with an aide, the spokesman for bin Laden's al-Qaida group, reading an opening statement.
"What happened in the United States is a natural reaction to the ignorant policy of the United States," said the alde, Suleiman Abu Gheit.
"If it continues with this policy, the sons of Islam will not stop their struggle. The American people have to know that what is happening to them now
"America was hit by God in one of its softest spots."
Osama bin Laden al-Qaida leader
is the result of their support of this policy," the statement said.
The Qatar-based independent TV network has been frequently airing exclusive footage of bin Laden, prompting the United States to raise concerns about Al-Jazeera's coverage during a meeting with the emir of Qatar in Washington on Wednesday.
Relief, apprehension surround strikes
The Associated Press
Cheers of "USA! USA!" echoed through the Atlanta Falcons' football stadium after news was announced that U.S. forces had launched strikes in Afghanistan.
Across the nation, widespread support for counterstrike against terrorism was coupled with worries.
At a general conference, the president of the Mormon church was handed a note about the U.S. strikes and became choked up as he reported the news to a congregation of the faithful in Salt Lake City.
"We are plunged into the state of war — the first war of the 21st century," said Gordon B. Hinckley."This is not a matter of Christian against Muslim. ... Do not become a party in any way in the persecution of the innocent."
tens of thousands of Americans heard the news while packed into stadiums for National Football League games and the close of baseball's regular season.
The start of the Philadelphia Eagles' NFL game against Arizona at Veterans Stadium was delayed nine minutes as President Bush's announcement of the strikes was shown on the big screen.
The crowd of more than 64,000 cheered when they saw images of the military action.
At Miller Park in Milwaukee, baseball fans didn't get the opportunity to see Bush on the
scoreboard, but subdued players watched on clubhouse televisions.
"We all knew it was going to happen," said Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Mike De Jean. "Baseball has been secondary since Sept. 11. I think we all want to get home and be with our families in times like this."
In Chicago, Nora Murray, 30,
got the news while on the way to
an opera matinee.
She worried the U.S. strikes
she draw retaliation.
"There's more to come," she said. "I think fighting Afghanistan is going to be very difficult."
Residents of the nation's largest Afghan community, in Fremont, Calif., reacted with a mix of joy and apprehension.
Osama Bin Laden is widely loathed there, but many Afghan immigrants fear relatives in their homeland will suffer during the conflict.
"The good thing is I am happy they started," said Homayoun Khamosh, owner of the Pamir Food Mart. "And the bad thing is I don't want civilians dead for nothing."
In Atlanta, Vietnam veteran William McGill said the United States "should have gone in a long time ago and taken care of business."
"Even at my age I am willing to go," said McGill, 55. "I believe in my liberty and my freedom. If they need me, I'm there for them."
Clerics say attacks could lead to holy war
The Associated Press
Pakistan's government, which has thrown its support behind the U.S.-led coalition against terrorism, said it regretted that diplomatic efforts did not succeed and called for the U.S. action to remain "clearly targeted."
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan Several influential Pakistani clerics swiftly denounced U.S. and British attacks on Afghanistan late yesterday, calling them an attack against Islam and grounds for holy war.
The influential Afghan Defense Council, which is sympathetic to the Taliban, issued a call for holy war.
"It is the duty of every Muslim to support their brothers in this critical hour," said Riaz Durana,
the council's central leader. "We will support the Taliban physically and morally against the aggression of America."
Manawar Hassan, deputy chief of Pakistan's most powerful religious political party, called the strikes on the Afghan capital, Kabul, "an attack against Islam." He warned of "serious backlash" within Pakistan's military against Pakistani President Gen. Pervez Musharraf, whose decision to support the U.S.-led coalition has angered some Pakistanis.
Pakistan shares a border of more than 1,050 miles with Afghanistan.
Languages, ethnicities and family ties overlap, and many Pakistani, even those with no sympathy for the ruling Taliban
militia, are reluctant to see Afghanistan attacked.
"It is terrorism against terrorism, and that will solve nothing," said Amin Shinwari.
Heavily armed police and paramilitary troops were stationed for nearly 20 hours yesterday at the home of Maulana Fazal-ur Rehman,a prominent supporter of the Taliban.
Rehman has been fiercely critical of Musharraf's promise to help the United States in its crackdown against terror suspect Osama bin Laden's network, run from Afghanistan.
A statement from officials in North West Frontier province said Rehman had been detained because he planned to lead an anti-American rally yesterday in Multan, a province 270 miles
southwest of the capital, Islamabad.
The Punjab provincial government had banned his entry, but an estimated 5,000 to 10,000 people showed up for the rally. They burned an American flag and an effigy of President Bush
President Bush, who had warned the Taliban time was running out, emphasized that the United States has no quarrel with Islam, only with terrorists and those who harbor them.
"The United States of America is a friend to the Afghan people, and we are the friends of almost a billion worldwide who practice the Islamic faith," Bush said yesterday. He said the United States will also drop food, medicine and supplies in Afghanistan.
NATO receives early warning of air strikes
Countries pledge forces, access to airfields
airfields
The Associated Press
BRUSSELS, Belgium — NATO was informed in advance of yesterday's U.S. and British strikes on Afghanistan, but the alliance is not directly involved in the action, officials said.
The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, also said security had been upgraded at alliance headquarters in Belgium in the light of the attacks but was not at its highest alert status.
The officials declined to give further details and said no formal statement was expected from the alliance yesterday.
Although alliance structures
are not involved, President Bush said that in addition to Britain, fellow NATO allies Canada, Germany and France, as well as Australia, have pledged forces "as the operation unfolds."
On Thursday, Washington's 18 allies in NATO made good on their pledge of solidarity by granting the United States automatic and unlimited access to their airfields and ports.
lney also agreed to deploy ships and early-warning radar planes in support of the anti-terrorism campaign and to plug any holes in NATO manpower if U.S. troops are pulled from Europe for duty against terrorist targets.
NATO on Tuesday invoked its founding treaty to declare the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States an attack against all 19 members.
Sept. 11 attack reminiscent of USS Cole sinking
Exactly a year later, victims of an earlier act of terrorism will be honored
The Associated Press
NORFOLK, Va. — Watching the devastation at the World Trade Center, Petty Officer 1st Class Christopher Regal had a flash back of last fall's blast in Yemen that ripped open the USS Cole, killing 17 sailors and injuring 37.
"When I saw it on TV, it was just, like, exactly what we went through, of course on a grander scale," said Regal, 32, who was a hull maintenance technician aboard the destroyer.
On Friday, a year to the day the Cole was bombed, a memorial to the victims will be dedicated at the Norfolk Naval Station. The memorial, featuring a 10-foot-tall monolith encircled by 17 granite slabs, pays tribute to crew members who saved the Cole from sinking.
The city of Norfolk also plans to hold a candlelight vigil, much like the one it held after the Cole was attacked.
"The common thread that runs between the Cole and the events of Sept. 11 is that these were acts of terror, apparently committed by the same group of terrorists," said Mayor Paul Fraim, referring to the network headed by Osama bin Laden.
Gary R. Edgerton, chairman of the communication and theater arts department at Old Dominion University, thinks last month's terrorist acts have raised the Cole's profile.
"It was seen not as an isolated event but now as one within a series."

department chairman
"What happened on Sept. 11 gave an added relevance after the fact to the Cole," said Edgerton. "The Cole has gotten back on the radar screen. It was seen not as an isolated event but now as one within a series."
The Cole, one of the Navy's most advanced combat ships, was refueling at Yemen's Aden port when an explosives-laden suicide boat blasted a 40-by-40-foot hole in its side.
Most of the crew of about 300 stayed with the ship, getting the wounded to a hospital within about 90 minutes and working to save the ship from sinking.
"Mass hysteria. Confusion. No lights, no power, absolutely nothing," said Regal, recalling the scene.
He said he was still sometimes overcome by sadness at the loss of his friends.
Regal also feels angry, wondering whether the Sept. 11 attacks could have been prevented if more aggressive, immediate action had been taken against the terrorists who crippled the Cole.
"What happened to us was just a test, how they bombed us and got away with it," Regal said. "They knew they could get away with it, so they went for a grander scale."

Giant Steps Part2: Momentum builds in KU's department of music and dance. By John S. Albin
New leaders of the University of Kansas department of music and dance, such as chairman Larry Mallett, want to make the department one of the finest programs in the country.
Such aspirations have emerged amid abundant changes in the department during the past few years, including acquiring private funding for new pianos in student practice rooms.
This, the second and final installment of a feature on the department of music and dance, focuses on some of the recent improvements to the department and possibilities for the future.
Seven Steps to Heaven
In spite of its lingering problems such as inadequate funding for touring, the department of music and dance has improved its facilities.
improved to Murphy Hall was expanded and renovated last school year. The $10.3 million project, funded by the Kansas Legislature and the University, added 52,000 square feet to the 44-year-old building.
The money allotted for Murphy Hall
Highlights include the Thomas Gorton Music & Dance Library, the Computer Technology Center, three rehearsal halls and numerous faculty offices.
also allowed for the renovation of old space into offices for music education and music therapy faculty, thus uniting all of the music programs under one roof for the first time since the 1950s, according to the department's Web site.
Still, there are further plans for improvement.
Toni-Marie Montgomery, dean of fine arts, said facilities for the visual and performing arts would be getting another boost from the Kansas University Endowment Association's capital campaign, which has budgeted $20 million for additional facilities.
Montgomery said the money was earmarked for expansion of the Lied Center.
The dean declined to specify any further details of the proposal, citing the early stages of negotiations.
Fund-raising has become a central theme for Montgomery.
Maintaining traditions has been one way the department thrives.
"A lot of the prestige, obviously, is history and tradition, but also finances, because you're able, obviously, to do a lot more if you have money," she said.
"We used to have a program called 'Fac'
ulty Follies,' and we charged $1 or $2 to get in, and all that money went into music scholarships," said Mark Holmberg, professor of music theory and composition. "We faculty members would wear bathrobes and slippers and do all kinds of crazy things. We'd stage a choir rehearsal where we all sang wrong notes and just sounded awful, to show that we too could sing wrong notes, not just our students."

Students use the latest technology to compose music, choreograph dance and marching band movements,and create and edit movies at Murphy Hall.
Now, Montgomery's administration is seeking donors to buy the naming rights to the School of Fine Arts ($20 million) and the Murphy Hall addition ($5 million) as well as numerous smaller spaces within Murphy Hall.
Kids play on a fountain outside Murphy Hall during KU Open House on Saturday.
Montgomery said any money from naming rights would be placed in an endowment. She said the interest made off the money would be used for student scholarships, faculty development and to buy equipment for the school.
J. E. WILSON/KANSAN
"We currently at KU have no school that was named that had money associated with it," she said. "It is something that is regular because in higher education we're more dependent on private giving."
She has sought to improve the quality of the information distributed by the School of Fine Arts, such as the new semi-annual newsletter, Collage, which is sent to alumni and accredited organizations. Sim-
Larry Mallett, chairman of the department of music and dance, said that money derived from selling naming rights within the department would be used to bolster the department's discretionary funds and touring budget, thus providing an opportunity for more regional and national recognition.
Another one of Montgomery's major goals is exposure and outreach through events such as the Collage Concert, Oct. 10, and the Brown Bag Classics series, a student and faculty recital series in the Kansas Union that began Sept. 5. Montgomery said she hoped to expand Brown Bag to the University of Kansas Medical Center.
iarly, the School of Fine Arts' Web site is also undergoing a major overhaul, adding more information and better graphics.
Several units within the department are making strides, such as the division of dance. A Bachelor of Fine Arts program in dance was added last year to the Bachelor of Arts option.
"The dean and the provost really came through over the past year and made it happen," Mallett said. "We've had some problems with the dance floors, and they are being replaced almost as we speak. I also think there's the option within the next couple of years that we could be expanding our studio space. We're in real good shape. We'll be seeing much more out of the dance program."
Another recent addition to the department is Clarence Henry, an ethnomusicologist — a person who studies music outside the European art tradition.
Henry joined the faculty this school year and is expected to bring more diversity to the curriculum, which has been fairly entrenched in the Western, classical tradition.
"We need to reflect America and the world," Montgomery said, "and in teaching the same Western influence all the time, we're not preparing ourselves or our students for the real world."
And while the department of music and dance in not without its weaknesses or problems, Dan Gailey director of jazz studies, remains optimistic.
"I'm personally more excited about the direction of this department with the new dean and the new chairman than I have been since I first got the job," he said.

Football fans should relish road victory, brag about it
Ahhhh, you should feel good about being a Kansas football fan today.
Relish that feeling; drol about how good it feels to love your Jayhawks; call your friends at other Big 12 universities and brag to them about your up-and-coming Jayhawks.
The Big 12 Conference has to take Kansas seriously after its stunning 34-31 come-from-behind double-overtime victory that spoiled Texas Tech's homecoming game on Saturday night.
mig game on Saturday night. But most importantly, be proud that your Jajahaws are not in last place in the Big 12 right now. That honor rests with the low Kansas State Wildcats.
That's right. For the first time since 1989 and the now-defunct Big Eight Conference glory days, K-State is last place in the conference. The Wildcats are conference doormats. They're bringing up the rear, stuck in the conference black hole, worse than the Jayhawks. Heck, they're worse than ... Missouri.
And to that I say, "HA HA."
The Wildcats are 2-2 overall and 0-2 in the Big 12. If not for a late USC fumble inside the 20-yard line in the final minutes of its season opener, K-State would be sitting at 1-3. The Cats are plummeting in the national rankings and will drop out of the Top 25 after Texas Tech beats them this Saturday.
The Bill Snyder dynasty is in a nose dive that could return K-State to the doormat status it held during the Stan Parrish, Jim Dickey, Ellis Rainsberger, Vince Gibson, Doug Weaver and Bus Mertes year. Those players guided the Wildcats to 31 losing seasons and three winning or even seasons from 1955 to 1988. Even Snyder added three losing seasons in his first years in Manhattan.
Kansas is also 2-2 overall, but the Jayhawks are 1-1 in the Big 12 — and that's better than K-State. Kansas won a conference road game because it showed poise in the second half. It believed it could win on the road and stayed true to its successful offensive attack throughout the second half.
The offensive line finally opened holes for sophomore tail back Reggie Duncan to run through and he broke tackles, stiffarmed defenders and rumbled for 227 yards on 38 carries. Quarterback Zach Dyer got Kansas off to a good start by leading a touchdown drive, and backup Mario Kinsey showed some late poise that helped send the game to overtime
that helped freshman Johnny Beck hit four clutch field goals, and senior captain Marcus Rogers sent the Kansas faithful who journeyed to Lubbock, Texas, into a celebration after his interception in the second overtime sealed the win.
The Jayhawks shone in the clutch. Kansas State hasn't done that. That's why Kansas is tied for third in the Big 12 North division right now - and K-State is last. How long those standings will last is another story because Kansas plays No. 3 Oklahoma on Saturday.
Regardless, feel good about your Kansas football team this week. And pray for a miracle on Saturday so you can have something else to brag about.

Kinsey leads rally as Kansas delivers in overtime win
Late drive propels' Hawks
IX
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
Reggie Duncan breaks a tackle in the first quarter of Kansas' 34-31 double-overtime win against Texas Tech Saturday. Duncan ran for a career-high 227 yards on 38 carries at SBC Jones Stadium in Lubbock, Texas.
Freshman quarterback Mario Kinsey, drained from a nasty case of the flu and winded from two overtimes of football, stood proudly under the Saturday night lights in Lubbock, Texas.
With the score of Kansas' 34-31 victory displayed on the scoreboard behind them, Kansas players and coaches — swarmed by a herd of Jayhawk fans — embraced one another at midfield in front of him.
A wide smile broke across Kinsey's face.
"I live for big-time situations like this, so we can make the play and I can hook everybody up." Kinsey said. "I feel great."
Statistically, Kinsey has had better games at Kansas. He completed eight of 24 passes and had one touchdown. He was sacked three times and threw for only 86 yards. Texas Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury had 183 passing yards by halftime.
Things soured for Kinsey after his first snap when he replaced sophomore Zach Dyer, who started the game.
Kinsey came in for the final nine minutes of the first half. He slumped through the second quarter and struggled through the third. But in the fourth, when his team needed him the most, Kinsey's game flourished.
With two minutes left, his team trailing 24-16, and 63 yards from the end zone, Kinsev took over.
"I just felt it," he said. "I just knew we had to go out there and win."
A minute was shed from the clock after a few plays, and Kansas was faced with a long third down. For the first time this season, Kansas tried some trickery.
On third and 16 from the Kansas 44-yard line, Kinsey fired a short pass to senior wide receiver Termaine Fulton. Fulton caught the football at midfield and pitched it behind him to sophomore wide receiver Derick Mills. Mills raced 35 yards down the sideline before he was pushed out of bounds at the Texas Tech 15-yard line.
"We've been working on that this week in practice," Kinsey said. "I didn't think we were going to use it because we had not used it all game. But it came up big when we did."
After successive 5-yard runs by Kinsey and sophomore running back Reggie Duncan, Kinsey zipped a 5-yard pass to Fulton, who jumped in the end zone and ripped the football out of the air for a touchdown. A two-point conversion run by Duncan with 17 ticks left evened the score at 24.
Kansas, in front of a stunned crowd of 45,343, was in business.
After the two teams traded touchdowns in the first overtime, Kansas freshman kicker Johnny Beck blasted a 37-yard
field goal, putting Kansas up by three. After missing a field goal for the first time this season — his fourth quarter 48-yard attempt reverberated off the left upright — Beck's boot put the pressure back on Texas Tech. The 6-foot-1, 205-pound kicker from Kansas City, Kan. also connected on three other field goals, including two from 42 yards out and one 44-yard kick. He has now hit eight of nine field goals in four games.
On the ensuing possession, Texas Tech backup quarterback
B. J. Symons was intercepted by middle linebacker Marcus Rogers. Rogers cradled the football before he tumbled to the turf, securing Kansas' second win and first Big 12 Conference win of the season.
Rogers said his coaches had told him to watch for Texas Tech receivers' cross patterns.
"They were doing it all game. I chased it and ran back right into them. We raised the level in the second overtime," said Rogers.
Kansas coach Terry Allen said
he never gave up on his team.
"We were looking 1-3 in the mouth," Allen said. "That would have been pretty bad. But now we're 2-2, and we get to play the team that should be the No.1 ranked team in the country next week."
Kinsey said he was looking forward to playing against Oklahoma on Saturday.
It's going to be fun against OU. I hope they're ready," he said.

On his home turf, Duncan garners 227 yards
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
A return to Texas results in career-high stats for running back
Sophomore running back Reggie Duncan had enough in his tank to dominate and dazzle for an entire four quarters on Saturday.
Kansas' sophomore running back from Killeen, Texas, romped through Texas Tech's defense for 227 yards on 38 carries — both career highs — in his first start in his home state since high school.
"I nat's the breakout game I wanted," Duncan said. "It happened here in Texas. It felt real good to run like that again. My
Quarterback Mario Kinsey said a large part of Saturday's game plan was to give Duncan the opportunity to run for 100 yards.
first game as a college player over 100 yards — I feel real good about that."
"We challenged our offensive linemen before the game that if they could get Reggie 100, then something good was going to happen," Kinsey said.
Duncan eclipsed his quarterback's goal in the first quarter with 64 yards. The number grew to 122 by halftime, and by the halfway mark of the fourth quarter, Duncan had more than 200 yards rushing.
Duncan displayed a combination of speed, finesse and power.
He sprinted 45 yards down the right sideline on his second carry of the game.
He slithered his way through the line of scrimmage for a 12-yard gain in the second quarter, and in the second overtime period, he stampeded nine yards, setting up freshman Johnny Beck's game-winning 37-yard field goal.
But Duncan said he knew his best showing in a Jayhawk uniform never would have happened without the adequate blocking of his offensive line.
"My game ball goes to them, and I will keep telling people that," Duncan said.
In a surprise start at quarterback, sophomore backup Dyer Dyer came out in Kansas' first possession and led the offense on a 12-play, 84-yard scoring drive in 4:37. The drive ended with Dyer throwing a one-yard play-action touchdown pass to freshman fullback Austin Nwabuisi.
On fourth down and one from the Texas Tech 16-yard line, Dyer kept the ball himself on a quarterback sneak and plunged forward three yards and a first down. Dyer was a perfect 2 for 2 passing on the drive.
Dyer was given three offensive possessions in the first half. He was five of eight passing for 50 yards and a touchdown. Kinsey relieved him with 9:19 to play before halftime and went the rest of the way at quarterback.
Kansas is 2-1 when Dyer starts. Kinsey started in Kansas' 27-16 loss to Colorado on Sept. 22.

Soccer team falls to Nebraska in season's first shutout
By Ryan Wood
Kansan sportswriter
After defeating Iowa State 3-1 on Friday, the Kansas soccer team fell to No. 5 Nebraska 2-0 yester day to split the weekend series.
The Jayhawks now stand at 7-3 overall, and 3-1 in Big 12 Conference play. All three losses this season were to Top 25 teams.
Kansas struck early against the Cyclones on Friday, when junior midfielder Brooke Jones scored off an assist by senior forward Hilla Rantala just four minutes into the game. It was
Jones's third goal of the season.
Coach Mark Francis said he felt the Jayhawks should have done better early in the game, despite outshooting the Cyclones in the first half.
Iowa State, 3-6 overall, 1-2 in Big 12 play, tied the score when midfielder Tiffany Belz scored on a free kick past freshman goalkeeper Meghan Miller in the 28th minute.
The Jayhawks came back and broke the game open in the second half. Freshman forward Monica Brothers, last week's Big 12 Newcomer of the Week, scored her fifth goal of the season off an assist from Jones in the 61st minute, putting the score at 2-1.
"Brooke scored a really great goal," coach Mark Francis said. "But we did not play well in the first half."
Rantala put the game out of reach in the 66th minute when she put a corner kick past Cyclone goalkeeper Karen Hasselman. It was her eighth goal of the season as she continued to add to her numerous scoring records at Kansas.
"The second half was much better," Francis said. "I felt like we dominated in the second half. We really got after it and played some soccer."
Francis was proud of his team's efforts.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 8)
Today's birthday (Oct. 4)
Distant horizons backen you, and you're eager to learn. What's over the next hill? How many more degrees can you accumulate? Your curiosity is boundless, so don't let your old tears limit you. This year, explore things the way a child would — yet responsibly, like an adult.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 6 Finish as much homework as you can, even if it's not due yet. If you're not enrolled in a class, just follow your instincts. The more you can learn before tomorrow, the better. You'll have less time for reading then.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6
You're a shrewd negotiator. Make your deal
early, and get what you want. Make sure the
others feel as if they've got a bargain, too. That's
the nice thing about you: You can make everybody
feel like a winner, while you walk away with the
prize.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 7
You can talk people into just about anything, so why aren't you rich? Maybe you are, but you know there's more money to be made. Money is a byproduct of creativity, and you have plenty of great ideas. Get practical, and transform another one into cash.
Cancer (June 22-July 22)—Today is a 7
Amazingly, you're able to find what you were
looking for and express your feelings clearly. A person you had just about decided to cross off
your list becomes a friend again, and it's due to
your persistence.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is 7.
Meetings and conversations go well early. People are in the mood to talk then, they'll say exactly what they mean. It may be more difficult to figure out what's going on in the evening, when people will be more likely to tell you what they think you want to hear.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 7
This week, going back to work could be a relief.
Don't get stuck in your old routine, though. Let
your supervisor know you're up for a challenge.
No matter how much you know, there's always
room to grow.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is an 8
You continue to be charming, witty and cute. It will now be easy to express yourself and make new friends. It will also be easy to write, so if you have a report that's almost due, get started. You could come up with your final product on the very first draft.
C
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6
Follow the money trail. If you ask leading questions, you'll find ways to get to it. It's not easy, but it's possible. Keep at it.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is an 8 You're learning quickly. You still have to pay close attention in order to keep up with some of the others. Don't compete with somebody who's been playing this game for years. Instead, get him or her on your side.
2
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 5
Is it time to get an raise in your allowance, pay-
check or benefits? If you think so, it is. Talk to the
person who signs the checks. If the money is
there—and it likely is—it's possible to get more
of it coming your way. Ask.
Two people
LION
Crab
Ballerina
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 9 Have you noticed you can see farther than before? It's because you're growing. You're gaining knowledge and experience, and becoming more confident. If you want a favor from a loved one, ask later rather than earlier.
LA CONSERVACIÓN DE LA JUDICIO
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 6

get excellent deals. Put in the effort.

(3) Oklahoma 14, (5) Texas 3
DALLAS — The Oklahoma Sooners didn't dominate the Texas Longhorns this time. They tricked them instead.
The Sooners (5-0, 2-0 in the Big 12 Conference) still led 7-3 when Tim Duncan, who already had missed field-goal attempts from 24 and 42 yards, lined up for a 45-yarder but instead took a flip from White, who was the holder, and punted deep into Texas territory.
The ball was headed into the end zone for a touchback, but Texas' Nathan Vasher caught it at the 3-yard line.
Third-ranked Oklahoma set up its only touchdowns by running an option on fourth-and-2 and recovering its own short punt on a fake field goal, leading to a 14-3 victory over No. 5 Texas on Saturday.
Quentin Griffin, who had six touchdowns in a 63-14 stomping last season, ran 17 yards on the second-quarter option from quarterback Jason White, who replaced the injured Nate Hybl. Griffin then scored on a 2-yard run off of another option late in the second quarter for the game's first points.
On the next play, Texas (4-1, 1-1) quarterback Chris Simms dropped into the end zone to pass and was hit by Oklahoma safety Roy Williams. Linebacker Teddy Lehman caught the flubbed pass and returned it 2 yards for a touchdown with 2:01 left.
MANHATTAN, Kan. — Craig Ochs threw a 21-yard touchdown pass and Roman Hollowell set up Jeremy Flores' third field goal with a 53-yard punt return, leading Colorado past Kansas State.

held the Wildcats (2-2, 0-2) scoreless until midway through the fourth quarter.
The Wildcats, who missed two field-goal attempts and an extra point, had not lost consecutive regular-season games since 1994. They had not lost their first two conference games since 1992.
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska's Eric Crouch set an NCAA Division I-A record for rushing touchdowns by a quarterback, scoring four times in the first half to push his total to 51.

STILLWATER, Okla. — Trailing 14-0 in the first half and struggling on offense, Missouri appeared headed for a long night. It wound up being one for Oklahoma State.
Oklahoma State.
Missouri scored on five straight possessions and took a 28-14 lead. Oklahoma State then rallied to force overtime. The Tigers got a field goal in the third overtime, winning 41-38 Saturday night.
Brad Hammerich's fourth field goal, a 36-yarder, gave Missouri (2-2, 1-1) the victory after the Tigers had blocked a 39-yard field goal try by Luke Phillips.

BASEBALL Barry Bonds extends lead on homerun record to 73
SAN FRANCISCO—Barry Bonds hit his 73rd homerun yesterday, further extending the major league record he broke two days earlier.
In what could be his final game with the San Francisco Giants, Bonds connected in the first inning off Los Angeles' Dennis Springer.
Bonds, who broke Mark McGwire's record by slugging two homers Friday night, homered in his first at-bat yesterday after taking a day off Saturday. He singled in the third and popped out in the sixth.
top of the second inning.
When McGwire set his record of 70 homers in 1998, a mark then thought unbreakable, he hit two homers on the final day of the season.
Bonds shook his head and shrugged his shoulders, almost in disbelief at what he has accomplished this season, as he took the field for the top of the second inning.
Bonds' homer, onto the arcade above the right-field fence, was the 567th of his career -leaving him six behind Harmon Killebrew for sixth all-time. Bonds started the season 17th on the career list.
Rickey Henderson lofts his 3.000th hit during last game
SAN DIEGO — Rickey Henderson got his 3,000th hit on the final day of the season, a bloop double on the first pitch he saw yesterday.
The flamboyant leadoff hitter for the San Diego Padres became the 25th member of the 3,000-hit club. Three days earlier, he broke Ty Cobb's career record by scoring his 2,246 run.
With the huge crowd on its feet they'd come out to see Tony Gwynn's final game and got this as a bonus Henderson lofted the pitch from Colorado's John Thomson into right field.
Reaching 3,000 hits is remarkable for Henderson because of the high number of walks he's drawn in 23 seasons. On April 25, he passed Babe Ruth with walk No. 2,063 to become the all-time leader. He's since pushed that total to 2,141.
FOOTBALL Interceptions hound Chiefs in game against Broncos
When Kansas City quarterback Trent Green wasn't completing passes to Tony Gonzalez, he inevitably found Denver cornerback Deltha O'Neal.
O'Neal tied a Denver record with four interceptions as the Broncos put on a show in front of their former defensive coordinator in a 20-6 victory over the Chiefs yesterday.
over the Anderson yards. Mike Anderson ran for 155 yards and Rod Smith had 110 yards receiving, which accounted for nearly 90 percent of Denver's offense as the Broncos (3-1) ended a four-game losing streak against the Chiefs (1-3).
With Robinson now calling the defensive shots for Kansas City, the Broncos sacked Green four times, held the Chiefs to 297 total yards and capped the victory when O'Neal returned his fourth interception 27 yards with 1:48 remaining.

Women's golf aims for higher finish
By John Domoney
Kansan sportswriter
The last time the Kansas women's golftheam was scheduled to venture up to the Big Ten Conference, their tournament was canceled.
After missing out on the Sept. 15-16 tournament at Michigan State in the wake of the terrorist attacks, the Jayhawks will give it a second shot today as they begin play in the Women's Collegiate Shootout in Franklin, Ind.
For Kansas head coach Nicole Hollingsworth, it is a homecoming as she returns to her home state where she starred on the golf team at Indiana University.
Atter finishing last in the 12-team field in the fall of 1999, the Jayhawks mustered a 14th-place finish in a 15-team field in last fall's tournament.
"I'll get to see my parents and my sister," Hollingsworth said. "Going back to the Legends is nice because we played there a lot when I was a student-athlete."
The Jayhawks haven't fared well in the Women's Collegiate Shootout.
Hollingsworth thought this year's team would have a better chance to compete for a higher finish in the tournament.
"I feel that we're a really good team, we just have to figure out how to do it." Hollingsworth said.
The Jayhawks are coming off of their appearance last week in the Big 12 Invitational in Stillwater, Okla., where they weren't able to shoot the scores
they believe they're capable of carding.
caution.
Although Hollingsworth said she was pleased with the play of her team, Kansas finished 14th among the 16 teams that competed in the tournament.

"I thought we did fine," Hollingsworth said. "We'd never beaten Missouri or Nebraska, and when you beat somebody it's a step in the right direction."
For the Jayhawks to succeed in playing rounds today and tomorrow, they must tame The Legends of Indiana Golf Course.
That doesn't bother most Kansas golfers after playing the rigorous Karsten Creek Golf Course at the Big 12 Invitational.
Along with Bawanan, Kansas will be led by juniors Tiffany Kruggel, Jill MacDonald, Heather Rose, and Kristy Straub.
"Indiana is a little easier course than we played last time, and I'm confident we can shoot good scores there," sophomore Jennifer Bawanan said. "Three out of our five players have played it already."
Hollingsworth said she thought that the key to the team's success was shooting scores that they're capable of executing.
"I just hope we go to the tournament and shoot team rounds of 300 or 305," Hollingsworth said. "We need four or five players to shoot in the seventies everyday."

The lahawks are pointing to this tournament because although the crucial part of their schedule doesn't begin until the spring, Kansas can't afford to make a habit of finishing tournaments in the middle of the pack.
today's opening rounds will also see Kansas feature a change in its starting lineup. Freshman Kevin Ward will make his first appearance in a tournament for the lashawks.

"We're really excited to go to Missouri because it's a great track and easily scorable," Marshall said. "It's not critical but it's very important for us and our egos."
Senior Casey Harbour has been moved out of the starting five, but he will still compete in today's tournament.
Along with Ward, the lineup will include senior Travis Hurst, junior Chris Marshall, sophomore Tyler Hall and redshirt freshman Andrew Price.
Randall said he hoped his players could break out of their slump and regain the confidence he fears some of them lost in the wake of the team's poor play.

CBS cancels Emmy telecast
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The Emmy Awards telecast, delayed three weeks by the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, was canceled yesterday after United States and Britain launched a military attack in Afghanistan.
It was the first cancellation in the awards' 53-year history.
There was no immediate statement from the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, which presents the awards, or from CBS, which announced the cancellation.
The television industry had grappled in the weeks following the attacks with the propriety of having an Emmy celebration.
Veteran newsman Walter
Emmy organizers had sought to create a night of muted celebration, asking participants to reduce red-carpet arrival fanfare and forgo showy gowns and tuxedoes in favor of business attire.
Cronkite was invited to help set a serious tone. The ceremony, with host Ellen DeGeneres, was to include tributes to heroes and victims of the attacks on New York and Washington.
In deference to East Coast-based nominees, part of the presentation of 27 awards was to take place in a Manhattan studio. The bicoastal Emmy broadcast was the first in more than two decades.
HBO's mob drama The Sopranos had bids in seven categories, while NBC's White House drama The West Wing had six nominations. Both were up for best drama series.
The Sopranos grabbed the most nominations in July, a total of 22, to 18 bids for The West Wing. But after September's creative arts ceremony, the NBC series had four Emmys and The Sopranos had one.
Awards were announced in categories including outstanding
choreography, editing and makeup, and in the new reality series categories.
NBC and Fox received a leading 11 awards, followed by HBO with eight, ABC with seven, and CBS, PES and UPN with three each.
Survivor, the CBS program whose success helped spur the reality series craze, was honored as best among programs in which the show's participants competed for a prize.
American High, a documentary series about high school students that was dropped by Fox and picked up by PBS, received an Emmy for best reality program that didn't involve a competition.
Four acting awards for guest roles were given out. The winners were Derek Jacobi and Jean Smart for episodes of Frasier, Michael Emerson for The Practice and Sally Field for ER.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN ED
Volleyball team falls in heartbreaker
By Steve Laurenzo
Korean sports writer
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas volleyball coach Ray Bechard was absolutely right when he said that his team and Texas Tech would be evenly matched.
The two teams fought back and forth on Saturday, with the Jayhawks falling 3-2 to the Red Raiders in front of 802 fans at the Horeisi Family Athletics Center.
Kansas took Texas Tech eight points beyond regulation in a first-to-15 game five. The Jayhawks took games two and three, 30-26 and 30-16, but lost games one, four and five, 28-30, 21-30 and 21-23.
"Technically, we weren't always great," Bechard said. "We didn't make the smartest plays, but, boy, we really fought."
The Jayhawks had four players with double-digit kill totals. Junior outside hitter Kylie Thomas recorded a career-best 15 kills, and freshman middle blocker Ashley Michaels slammed a career-high nine kills. She also had two solo blocks and three block assists.
Sophomore outside hitter Sarah Rome lead the 'Hawks with 19 kills, one shy of her career-best.
"It was a hard-fought battle and it didn't come out our way in the end, but it was close the whole way,"

think any one team did anything better or worse than the other. It was just the way the ball bounced."
“Tech was in a position to win the match and then all of the sudden we were,” Bechard said. “It just changes so quickly. I don't know if you fight so hard to keep the match from ending that you relax a little bit when you finally get your opportunity.”
Bechard said the match came
down to execution.
"You have to give Tech credit," Bechard said. "They made some big swings when they had to."

Credit card solicitation on campus under fire
By Luke Daley
Kansan staff writer
Student Body President Justin Mills wants to kick credit card companies off campus, but restricting just one type of solicitation could be considered unconstitutional when it comes to commercial speech.
comes to a communication. Tom Stacy, professor of law, said taking away a credit card company's right to sell its product on campus would set a precedent for other organizational bans. This would mean that businesses such as the Kansas City Star would be prohibited from selling subscriptions on campus.
"I would think that any total prohibition would run into problems," Stacy said.
Mills said he was researching First Amendment issues as they relate to campus solicitations.
He said credit cards could be a dangerous way for students to accumulate debt, and credit card sales representatives on campus prey on the inexperience of students who usually don't know potential problems associated with the credit card process.
"These companies have practices that exploit students," Mills said. "What they don't tell you is that students get bad credit history because they aren't taught how to use them."
But Stacy said an alternative would be for the University to prohibit exploitative solicitation. He said concerns about deception by credit card solicitors could be solved by forcing the credit card companies to provide credit and debt information to students who apply.
"As long as the credit card companies are providing information that is truthful and not misleading, the University would really have problems prohibiting that," Stacy said.
promising that
Mills met with eight other students
Friday afternoon to figure out how to expel the solicitors from campus.
"Our goal was to get them removed from the Union, but then we decided to get rid of them on the whole campus." Mills said.
He said that no timetable was set for removing the solicitors and that he and other students were researching the issue.
Ridding the University of credit card sales representatives may prove problematic from a legal standpoint.
Rocky Nichols, democratic state representative and Topeka graduate student, introduced a bill to the Legislature that would prohibit credit card solicitation from all university campuses in Kansas. If passed, the bill would allow the University of Kansas to prohibit credit card companies on University grounds.
Nichols said banning the solicitation from university campuses did not qualify as a commercial speech issue because universities already placed guidelines and restrictions on solicitation.
and restrictions on us. "It would seem to me that we could still protect constitutional rights and limit credit card solicitation," Nichols said.
He said the University might be hesitant to ban credit card solicitation on its own because it receives money from the credit card companies by allowing them on campus.
"I would hope that University groups would be able to find different ways of funding," Nichols said.
Sarah Hoskinson, Burton senior petitioned students on campus to get credit card solicitors removed from campus.
She said getting rid of the credit card merchants should not qualify as a First Amendment issue because the University places restrictions on

Habitat house vandalized
House that Greeks Built suffered damage, theft. but should be finished in timely manner
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Vandals struck the House that Greeks Built during the weekend, damaging a back door and stealing an air compressor valued at $350, said Sgt. Mike Pattrick of the Lawrence Police Department.
Andre Bollaert, executive director of Habitat for Humanity, said that the vandals also spray painted the word "ass" on
interior walls, something that had been done to another Habitat house in the same development.
The house at 1721 Atherton Court was entered between 5:30 p.m. Saturday and 8 a.m. Sunday. It is supposed to be completed around Sunday, Oct. 14, for Lawrence resident Maureen Mulally and her son. Bollaert said he did not think the vandalism would delay the completion.
vandalism. As of yesterday, the house was considered secure, meaning the walls were up, the windows were in and the doors and temporary locks were on. Bollaert said. He said Habitat houses had been vandalized only after they were secure, and there had been some trouble with vandalism in this area.
But this was the first time anything had been stolen.
Bollaert said Habitat was dealing with its insurance company to cover the cost of the stolen compressor. But because the compressor was owned by Habitat employee David Baldwin and not the organization, the insurance company may not cover the expense.
"We will definitely reimburse him for it." Bollaert said.
ii. Bonder said.
Although Patrick said police didn't have any suspects, Bolaia thought the acts were committed by juveniles who lived in the trailer park near Atherton Court. Bolaia suspected juveniles because of the immature nature of the crime. He said he had seen juveniles in the area recently but

Make up and basketball don't mesh well, but that's not a concern for Miss Kansas USA Lindsay Douglas.
"I try to get in some pick-up games a couple of times a week," said the St. Louis senior.
Douglas said that during her first three years at the University of Kansas she took a basketball course each semester and was often the only girl.
"I pretty much had to prove myself each semester," Douglas said. "It was so much fun."
Seeing her in athletic gear on the court, the guys from class wouldn't think of her as a beauty pageant contestant, she said.
David Meall, Minneapolis, Kan., junior, met Douglas last year during a pick-up game at Robinson Center.
"She's tall enough that she's a force down low," Meall said. "The girl is an incredible ball player."
The stereotype of a pageant contestist is a lifelong pageant performer with big hair, lots of make up and a fake personality Douglas said.
Such a stereotype is Douglas' antithesis, and her priority in entering a contest — such as the Miss USA competition in February — is maintaining self-confidence.
"You can't walk into a pageant thinking you're going to win," Douglas said. "Only one person can win. I just walk in and be myself."
But she added that other aspects to competition exist, such as being in shape.
The time she spends on the basketball court helps, Douglas said, though she has to curb the time when a competition nears.
"I always get scrapes and bruises," she said. "Can't have that in a swimsuit competition."
The Miss USA competition will be the fifth pageant Douglas has entered. She said the opportunity to promote the competition's platform, Breast Cancer Awareness, was important to her. As Miss Kansas USA, Douglas travels around the state to promote charities.
charities.
"I love being involved in charity work," Douglas said. "That's what drew me to the pageant."

Miss Kansas USA Lindsay Douglas will compete for Miss USA in February. The St. Louis senior is pursuing a degree in communications and hopes to teach elementary-level education and coach basketball.

Students, faculty attend forum with Haskell
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
A variety of topics were touched on yesterday at panel discussion between the University of Kanas and Haskell Indian Nations University.
"Indian education was the last and liberal solution to Indian problems in the 19th Century," said Wildcat, professor of American studies at Haskell Indian Nations University. "It meant literally to take the nativity out of the children to be civilized."
Dan Wildcat recalled how people once thought Native Americans needed to be assimilated into American culture.
About 50 people attended the discussion at Haskell called "A Time for Healing: KU and Haskell Building a Positive Future."
Sharon O'Brien, KU associate professor of government and graduate adviser of the Indigenous Studies program, said she was struck by the United States not participating in a reconciliation process with Native Americans.

about 200 existed in Iowa. Cornel Pewwardy, assistant professor of teaching and leadership, adjunct professor at Haskell and panelist, said he was working to eliminate the Kansas state public institutions' use of Native American sports mascots because they were stereotypical. He also said he objected to the use of "Fightin'" as part of Haskell's team name.
American languages had been disappearing. He said that before 1492, between 400 to 600 languages existed, but now only about 200 existed in North America.
"Education is the component," Peewardy said of fighting stereotypes.

A pedestrian ran into a vehicle being towed by Hillcrest Wrecker and Garage, 3700 Franklin Park Circle, at 1:32 a.m. Saturday near Seventh and Michigan streets, said Sgt. Mike Patrick.

Jerry Little, president of Hillcrest, said the driver was taking a Dodge Durango from an apartment complex back to Hillcrest when the accident happened.
He was awaiting the finished police report before determining disciplinary action for the driver.
"It appears they are determining fault with the pedestrian," Patrick said.

Bombings in Afghanistan reported to be successful
The Associated Press
ABOARD THE USS ENTERPRISE — U.S. commanders yesterday reviewed their bombing raids on Afghanistan, showing video clips of battle damage taken by infrared cameras aboard F-14 and F/A-18 fighters. The runs had a "very high success rate," they said.
In Washington, Pentagon officials said the attacks yesterday, the second day of raids, included five long-range bombers, including a pair of B-2 stealth bombers and three B-1B's. They joined 10 strike planes launched from aircraft carriers in the Arabian Sea in sending bombs and missiles at air defense and other military targets across Afghanistan. Two U.S. naval vessels and one submarine launched 15 Tomahawk cruise missiles.
The pilots, who had flown about 70 sorties Sunday in the first, 15-hour wave of military operations, reloaded precision-guided bombs late yesterday and headed back out after darkness fell. Every few minutes well into
this morning, another catapulted off the flight deck.
Pilots and commanding officers spoke of several direct hits on Sunday, with the captain of the USS Enterprise saying the initial assessment was "a very high success rate in hitting our targets." Those included an anti-aircraft missile storage facility and a terrorist training camp in southern Afghanistan, according to U.S. forces.
The military made "extraordinary efforts" to limit collateral damage, the admiral told reporters yesterday.
The U.S. military, describing the battle as unique from past wars, is keeping security extraordinarily tight, not allowing any members of the U.S. forces to be fully identified; some can be identified by first name only.
The captain of the USS Enterprise said the infrared camera images showed a "very high success rate in hitting our targets," with one strike deeply penetrating an underground target that
he would not reveal. The captain said the pilot involved in that strike told him the hillside opened up with small arms fire immediately afterward.
Referring to another image, he said it showed the bombing of an anti-aircraft missile storage site. The initial explosion was followed by a second explosion that sent at least one missile from the site into the air.
The captain said return fire also came in the form of one SA3 and shoulder-fired unguided missiles, which he described as "stupid missiles."
The captain of the USS Philippine Sea, a guided missile cruiser with the Enterprise battle group that fired four Tomahawk missiles on Sunday night, said "things went pretty smoothly."
"As tar as what's ahead, I think the military action last night created a more favorable condition to pursue terrorists, at the same time allowing humanitarian aid to the Afghan people," the Philippine Sea captain said.

'Resume doctors' dispense job advice
By Matt Norton Kansan staff writer
About 20 to 30 percent of students who complete internships while in school are offered full-time jobs with that firm when they graduate, said Gail Rooney, director of the University of Kansas Career and Employment Services office.
Rooney and her "resume doctors" will be providing tips about how to get the best job. The event is from 10 a.m.to 3 p.m. today through Thursday on the fourth-floor lobby of the Kansas Union and is free to students.
The biannual event started last fall. Rooney said the number of participants rose from about 200 last fall to more than 500 last spring.
She said her staff would look at students' resumes and determine what changes could be made to make the resume focus on the student's desired position.
"We actually look carefully at the language," Rooney said. "We want students to use what we call action verbs that highlight what they did in their positions or their experiences and any accomplishments they have."
Rooney said her office stressed to students that it had at least two or three people look at their resume.
"It's very easy when it's my resume, and I've looked at it for the last two weeks, that I'll miss things or overlook things," she said.
Ryan Fields, Emporia junior, said he wasn't thinking about job searches
"I've got a long time before I graduate." Fields said. "I'm just taking it slow."
or worrying about resumes.
But Rooney said that it was never too early for students to begin thinking about resumes. She said students who didn't have a lot of work experience could emphasize course work or volunteer experiences to help them get summer jobs or internships.
She said she tried to get students to think about specific holes they could fill to help market themselves better for their intended fields.
The meetings with the "resume doctors" should take less than 15 minutes, Rooney said. Students who need extra help will be asked to make an appointment with Career and Employment Services, she said.
Provide basic contact information
Job search tips
Emphasize previous work, school and volunteer experience.
Have a specific objective whenbuilding a resume.
If waiting for a call from a perspective employer, remove the funny or silly message from answering machine. It can be seen as unprofessional.

entered. "There were a lot of entries and screening took them down to the top five." Johnson said.
live,Johnson Kappa Alpha Theta sorority, Delta Delta delta sorority and KU Men's Club were selected among the top five. The two final groups were each made up of two campus organizations. The Black
Men of Today and the National Council of Negro Women make up one group, and Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority teamed up with Delta Upsilon fraternity.
Sarah Morrison, Leawood junior, said she screamed when she learned her sorority, Delta Delta Delta, was selected to sing in the competition. Morrison said her group was singing a version of Madonna's "Like a Praver"
"I'm excited for everybody to hear it because it is very powerful in person," Morrison said.
Laura Dakihil, Wichita sophomore, said her sorority, Kappa Alpha Theta, was singing a song called "Space Jay-
hawk." She said it was adapted from the 'N Sync song, "Space Cowboy."
"Everyone is excited because this is an opportunity to get in front of the University." Dakhil said.
Doors open at 7 p.m. Friday. Activities begin at 8 p.m., and the men's basketball team will have a brief scrimmage at midnight. Admission is free, but people are encouraged to bring canned food, which will be donated to area food shelters. The fieldhouse will close when it is filled.

Museum prints to aid relief fund
By Gregory Barry Special to the Kansan
The Spencer Museum of Art is helping victims of the New York City tragedy and making an important addition to its collection by purchasing a print of a famous contemporary photograph that's been re-released.
The Julie Saul art gallery in New York announced last week that 500 copies of a picture titled New York, N.Y. 1979, taken by photographer Tseng Kwong Chi, would be re-released. The 8x10 gelatin sliver prints are on sale for $250, and the proceeds, as well as those from the I Love New York Art Benefit, will go to the World Trade Center Disaster Relief Fund.
The museum staff said the print was important as an addition to the photography collection and it had great sentimental value.
"It is important to have this photograph in our collection to pay tribute to those who died in the World Trade Center and to financially help those who survived," said Elissa Anderson, museum intern of photography and Baltimore graduate student.
John Pultz, curator of photography, said the museum ordered a copy of the print after a staff meeting. The museum staff, art history faculty and graduate students in the School of Fine Arts purchased the print with money they pooled themselves.
selves. "It would be more appropriate to take up a collection from the staff than to use museum endowed funds," said Andrea Norris, museum director.
The photograph shows Chi standing in front of the World Trade Center wearing his traditional garb of a Mao's worker suit and sunglasses. It is taken from a group of about 80 photographs titled "East Meets West, The Expeditionary Series," which portray Chi deadpan in front of national monuments across the United States.
The print should be arriving within the next two weeks, Pultz said. The museum houses another work by Chi, which shows the photographer in front of Graceland in Tennessee.
Chi (1950-1990) is best known for his series of self-portraits in which he placed himself in tourist settings both natural and manmade. He established himself as an ambassador from China, creating a parody of his stereotyped Eastern culture.
Chi played a major role in the East Village art scene in the 1980s with his "Costumes at the Met" project and his close relationship with friend and collaborator, Keith Haring. They made more than 50,000 negatives documenting Haring's subway work, mural commissions and studio shots.

Some international GTAs struggle to overcome language barrier
By Rachel Larson Special to the Kansan
Ousmane Seck is about 5,000 miles and 11 hours away from his home country of Senegal, where he knows communication will almost never be a problem.
Seck, who is one of more than 250 international graduate teaching assistants at the University of Kansas, admits that language barriers and cultural differences have caused problems for him.
Even though he's taught for four years in French, this is his first year teaching in English.
"I need to make myself clear even if I have a foreign accent," said Seck, who is teaching in English for the first time.
Every international GTA who teaches a course partially or completely in English must take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).
The test is developed by the Educational Testing Service, the same company that produces the SAT. In Kansas, the Board of Regents requires a minimum score of 240 out of a possible 300 points. The test consists of seven different parts, which are taped and reviewed by at least three people.
Seck, who is also working on his Ph.D. in economics and is teaching managerial accounting, said he passed the speak-test with no trouble the first time and thought it was easy.
"I don't think you need to study for the speak-test; it was just practice," he said.
song-Perk Sem, a first-year GTA from Malaysia, had a more
difficult time.
Sem has lived in the United States for seven years, but he still failed the test the first time he took it, scoring a 250. Sem passed the test on his second try with a 240—the minimum requirement.
"It's not hard, it's just weird," he said. "I can speak to people fine, but to just speak to the machine, sometimes you have anxiety."
Mark Algren, who works at the KU Applied English Center, grades and administers the spoken portion of the test. Algren said the testing process had some problems.
"The results that we end up with for any given student for any given exam reflects what we've heard on that tape." Algren said. "Now, if a student slips back into bad habits afterward, we don't test that."
Despite sometimes low test scores, Sem said he doesn't think that language is a problem in KU classrooms. He said he was used to the cultural differences between students at the University and students in Malaysia.
Nancy Kinnersley, an associate professor in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, hired nine international GTAs this year for her department. Kinnersley said her department hired a lot of international students because of a shortage of domestic applicants.
"Domestic students will go out to work instead of graduate school," she said.
Kinnersley said she has heard complaints about international GTAs in the past, but she had had no major problems with them. She said that she chooses applicants
with higher test scores and carefully critiques their oral interviews.
"I've turned down people who have passed the speak-test because I felt it would be difficult to understand them in the classroom," Kinnerley said.
Kinnersley said international GTAs evaluations have been as high or higher than domestic students. However, some students still have complaints.
Susie Chang, Topeka sophomore, switched classes when she couldn't understand her teacher. She said calculus was difficult enough without worrying about understanding the teacher.
"It definitely affects your grades." she said.
Sean Baker, Houston junior, is taking an economics course taught by an international GTA
"They are really rigid," Baker said. "It's not because of languages. They don't have the gift of teaching. They come from a different culture."
But jill Irwin, Omaha, Neb,
sophomore, said she hasn't had any problems understanding the international teacher in her calculus class. She said the professor warned students at the beginning of the semester to drop the class or transfer if they had problems understanding him.
"I don't think the international part matters, it's whether or not you can understand their accent." Irwin said. "I've had no problems."

Zoning change not needed in neighborhood
University of Kansas students could lose more housing choices if the Old West Lawrence Neighborhood Association gets what it wants.
The neighborhood association, also called OWLS, wants the Lawrence City Commission to rezone the neighborhood to only allow single-family housing. Students already suffered a loss of housing freedom last spring when the Commission voted to limit to three the number of unrelated persons who can live together in neighborhoods zoned for single families. Old West Lawrence has been zoned for unlimited duplex since 1966
OWLS listed nine reasons for the proposed zoning change in a letter sent to property owners in the neighborhood. Those reasons included:
■ the demolishing of historical homes that could be repaired to build new duplexes
the neighborhood's present zoning increases the density of the neighborhood
■ the neighborhood “is the only large block of historic single-family homes zoned duplex in Lawrence”
half of the residents of the once single-family neighborhood live in rental homes
the single family zoning is "the one most important tool" to protect the neighborhood from the destruction of "single family homes and neighborhoods."
If OWLS has its way the area between Ninth and Sixth streets and Michigan and Alabama Streets would be rezoned. Then students who reside in the neighborhood's apartments would have to find an apartment with no more than two other unrelated people. The large houses would become single family homes only.
A change in the neighborhood's zoning would hurt some students. Those who live in houses divided into apartments would need to move. The neighborhood would also lose the diversity students bring to the neighborhood.
But students would not be the only ones hurt. Landlords would have to foot the bill for converting the large houses that dot the neighborhood from apartments back into single-family homes. Landlords also have no guarantees that they could sell the homes to a single family or find a family willing to rent the house.
Any change in neighborhood zoning is still far off. A member of the city or planning commission must first move to consider the new zoning. If the idea is initiated, a staff report will be prepared
The report would consider the criteria of seven "golden factors." These factors include the uses of nearby property, the character of the area, the current zoning law, the length of the current zoning laws, property values, public health and safety against any hardships suffered by landowners, and compliance with the new zoning law with the city's Horizon 20/20 plan.
Students should fight the zoning change. Students could help residents of the neighborhood stop rezoning and preserve the tradition of a neighborhood rich in diversity.

Free SUA movie preview tickets should go to those who wait
To catch a movie preview on campus, University of Kansas students can stop by the Student Union Association box office and pick up free movie passes the day of the showing. It's that easy. Or is it?
The SUA shows a couple of movie previews at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union every semester. It advertises in the Kansan and on campus that students should pick up a movie pass to get into the movie.
On the day of the free viewing, students rush to the box office with their KUIDs early in the morning to get one or two of the passes. That evening, with passes in hand, they head to Woodruff in high spirits. A few minutes later, many students find themselves back at home disappointed.
home classroom The passes do not guarantee seating because 700 passes are handed out for an auditorium that seats 500.
"Because the passes are free, we get many people who pick up two passes thinking they will go and find someone to go with them," said Chandra Dunbar, adviser for the feature films committee at SUA. "They often do not come and we end up with empty seats. The best solution that we have come up with is to hand out a couple of hundred extra vouchers."
This solution would be feasible, except that students who didn't take the time and effort to get to the box office to pick up passes can still show up and get into the movie. So, 200 extra vouchers

Why does SUA advertise and insist students get a pass if it is not required to get into the movie? Why spend Student Senate's money to make and advertise about these passes if they serve no real purpose?
are handed out, and students without passes are permitted.
A few students, with or without passes, were let in one at a time for about 15 more minutes, but then the doors were closed and the students were told it was a full house.
purpose
The last movie shown was *Serendipity* at 8 p.m. on Sept. 25. At 7:45 p.m., students waited in a long line outside Woodruff Auditorium because most of the seats were already filled.
There were looks of disappointment and anger because many of the students who had gotten into the movie did not have a pass from the box office, yet most of the students waiting in line had passes in hand.
when confronted with the issue, Dunbar said SUA did require people to have passes. She said in order to accommodate those people who show
up without vouchers, SUA tried to seat them if there were still empty seats about five or 10 minutes before the show started.
On Sept. 25 this was not the case The line was filled with students holding passes, yet the usher permitted students without passes into the movie.
If SUA is going to spend the money to make passes, the passes need to serve a purpose. It is a good idea to hand out 700 because not every student who picks up a pass is going to attend the movie. By handing out 200 more passes than existing seats, SUA is allowing for some students to not show up, but still have a full house.
have a full house. If 700 students are going to make the effort to pick up passes, those students should get priority over those who did not make the effort.
Those students who show up with passes the night of the movie get to be in line ahead of those without. SUA can still allow students without passes to show up that night and try to get into the movie, but the passes are ahead of them in line.
This is an easy problem to solve and it will save a lot of broken hearts.
The executive board of the SUA should enforce this policy. It is only fair to those who pick up passes, but it also might influence more students to rush to the box office.

goal. Many people participated and assisted with this project.Many of our students, faculty, staff and friends generously contributed with their money. Others provided food, words of encouragement, stayed up all night with Justin, encouraged other students to join the effort or found their own special way to aid this humanitarian idea. To all of the members of the community who found a way to contribute, I offer the heartfelt thanks of the University.
Deal editor.
The overwhelming success of the "Bring Justin Home" campaign, which raised well over $30,000 for disaster relief, is a testimony to the generosity and character of the University of Kansas family. All of us who participated in this effort may be justly proud, but special thanks need to be expressed to Justin Mills, student body president, and members of the Student Senate who conceived the idea and believed they could accomplish their goal.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The "Bring Justin Home" campaign was an important response to our national tragedy and sorrow. It was one of the many ways the KU family demonstrated its love and care for those who were so victimized by this senseless act. I am particularly proud of the manner in which students, faculty and staff treated members of our community from other countries and

Robert Hemenway
We are writing to thank and commend all the individuals who were involved with the "Bring Justin Home" fund-raising campaign that occurred Sept. 18-19. KU students, faculty, staff members and volunteers who offered their last bit of pocket change or lunch money are to be commended. We applaud the Lawrence community, whose members chipped in to contribute to this project and enriched the effort.
KU chancellor
Dear editor,
We believe the many donors and planners of this tremendous project offered their assistance, not for recognition, but for the opportunity to help others.
We personally thank you for your thoughtfulness.
More than once during this fund raising campaign, people's faith in the community's generosity and spirit were reaffirmed.
Adam Rich
We want to update the KU and Lawrence communities about the status of the campaign. With a few final
contributions still rolling in, this project has so far raised more than $31,000. Without each small contribution, this goal would never have been reached.

Resources spent on humanitarian airbucks are resources diverted from self-defense. It shows our leaders putting the lives of Americans below those of citizens in enemy countries.
Dear editor.
It is also appeasement. Some fear Muslims will think we're warring against Islam. The airdrops are an attempt to show this isn't true. If we fear these people will turn against us, best we not help them?
We've been appeasing by trying to form a coalition with Communists, in refraining from attacking other terrorist countries, in failing to declare war, and now in these airdrops. Fifty years of anpeasement lead to Sept 11th.
More will mean worse.

American named in blast; embassy closes for security
The Associated Press
KHOBAR, Saudi Arabia — A top Saudi official would not rule out a possible link between the Sept. 11 terror attacks and an explosion in Khobar that killed one American and another expatriate.
Saudi Interior Minister Prince Nayef said in comments published yesterday that a number of witnesses were being questioned about Saturday's explosion. No arrests have been made.

Authorities have not identified the second person killed in the blast.
In an interview with the Saudi Daily Okaz, Nayef said: 'It is not currently possible to affirm or deny whether the Khobar bombing is related either to the
attacks on New York and Washington or a string of bombings in the past year that have targeted foreigners."
Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah said the perpetrators of Saturday's attack "will be brought to justice," describing the explosion as "wrongful and cowardly" in comments carried by the official Saudi Press Agency.

FBI investigates man's anthrax death
The Associated Press
BOCA RATON, Fla. — The FBI took charge of the investigation of a Florida man's anthrax death yesterday after the germ was found in the nose of a co-worker and on a computer keyboard in their office.
"We regard this as an investigation that could become a clear criminal investigation," said Attorney General John Ashcroft during a news conference in Washington. "We don't have enough information to know whether this could be related to terrorism or not."
The FBI sealed off the Boca Raton office building that houses the supermarket tabloid The Sun, where the man worked. How the bacterial spores got into the newspaper's office was still under investigation.
More than 200 people lined up for
antibiotics and anthrax tests by late afternoon.
"I feel nervous. I'm worried for everybody," said David Hayes, an editor for The Star, another tabloid headquarters in the building.
Anthrax cannot be spread from person to person, but all 300 employees in the building — and anyone who spent more than an hour inside since Aug. 1 — were advised to visit Palm Beach County's health agency.
Antibiotics can be used to treat anthrax, though the form that caused last week's death is particularly lethal.
Health officials said no public health threat existed, even to building employees. "The risk is low," said John Agwunobi, a physician and Florida secretary of health.
Ashcroft said the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
in Atlanta was providing expertise in the case. Florida Lt. Gov. Frank Brogan confirmed the FBI was in control of the investigation.
Bob Stevens, 63, a photo editor for The Sun, died Friday of inhalation anthrax, an extremely rare and deadly form of the disease. The last such death in the United States was in 1976.
Yesterday, officials said another Sun employee, whose name was not released, had anthrax bacteria in his nasal passages. Large spores lodged in the respiratory tract are less dangerous than smaller spores in the lungs.
The co-worker was in stable condition at an unidentified Miami-Dade County hospital, health officials said. He had been tested for anthrax because he happened to be in a hospital for an unrelated and undisclosed illness.
"We don't have enough information to know whether this could be related to terrorism or not."
John Ashcroft
U.S. Attorney General
The man has not been diagnosed with the disease, and CDC representative Barbara Reynolds said authorities may never know whether he actually had anthrax because antibiotics may have killed it before it was detected.
Planes collide on Italian runway,114 dead
The Associated Press
MILAN, Italy — An SAS airliner taking off for Denmark hit a private jet that wandered across the runway, then careened into an airport building in a fiery crash. All 114 people on both planes and four people on the ground were killed yesterday.
It was Italy's worst aviation disaster. The people killed on the ground were airport workers at Milan's Linate Airport.
the government ruled out terrorism and said the crash was likely caused by human error compounded by poor visibility because of heavy morning fog.
"It's the worst day in our history,"
said Troels Rasmussen, SAS representative.
The collision occurred around 8:10 a.m. as the SAS MD-87 bound for Copenhagen with 104 passengers, six crew members and full fuel tanks — was accelerating on Linate's single runway.
A twin-engine Cessna jet, which was taking a potential buyer on a promotional flight, suddenly taxied onto the takeoff runway, said Alessandra Tripodi, a representative at the central government's office in Milan.
The SAS airliner careened off the runway from the impact and plowed into a baggage handling depot, the Interior Ministry said.
'I thought a bomb in a suitcase
had exploded and I ran," Salvatore Reale, 59, a baggage handler, told reporters at Niguarda hospital, where he was treated for burns.
The Interior Ministry said the Cessna, a Citation II with four people aboard, crossed onto the takeoff runway by mistake after air traffic controllers told the pilot to taxi around it.
Italy's second-largest pilots' union said the accident could have been avoided if the ground radar, which can track aircraft on runways, had been activated.
Aircraft must instead circle around the runway, he said.
"In this incident, it looks like the Cessna crossed the runway, which suggests an error was made in
terms of following the regulations," Gammino said. "It is now up to the magistrate to determine who is at fault."
The flight controllers' association, ENAV, said it appeared the Cessna pilot, despite having confirmed the instruction from the traffic controller, incorrectly went onto a taxiway that opened up directly onto the runway.
Transport Minister Pietro Lunardi put the confirmed death toll at 114 all 110 from the SAS flight and four from the Cessna. Tripodi's office said the bodies of the four ground workers had been found but could not be recovered.
New Yorkers celebrate holiday under tight security
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — With bombs falling on Afghanistan again, and New York on high alert against a terrorist counterattack, the city took part in a flagwaving, red-white-and-blue Columbus Day parade yesterday.
Fifth Avenue was awash in American flags, and marching bands played "God Bless America." The parade itself, which traditionally honors Italian-Americans, was renamed "Columbus Day Parade Honors America."
"It's a beautiful day to be a New Yorker," said Dana Kennedy, who watched with her 2-year-old son. "I've never felt so patriotic."
Mayor Rudolph Giuliani said the parade "demonstrates that we're
go ahead with our lives. We're not going to let terrorism hinder us."
At the World Trade Center, huge cranes continued to dip into a mountain of smoldering rubble, lifting several-ton sections of what were once support beams. The movement of debris released 100-foot-wide plumes of smoke from fires within the ruins. At least one body was seen being pulled from the ruins and was draped by workers in an American flag.
City officials have said 4,979 people remain missing from the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. They have confirmed 593 deaths, including 335 victims who have been identified.
The mayor, remembering the 343 Fire Department members and 23
police officers lost in the attacks,
said: "I know if they were here, they'd say,
'Be brave. ... We died to protect freedom."
The city's first parade since the attacks came as the United States carried out a second consecutive day of air strikes against Afghanistan.
In a morning Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral, prayers were offered for terror victims and heroes at home and combatants and innocent civilians in Afghanistan. It concluded with the "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Around the city, security was tightened. The State Department has warned about the possibility of "strong anti-American sentiment and retaliatory actions against U.S.
"It's a beautiful day to be a New Yorker. I've never felt so patriotic."
Dana Kennedy New York resident
citizens and interests throughout the world."
Some people voiced fears that terrorists might again focus on New York.
Onlookers said security along the parade route was similar to past years. And at the city's transportation hubs, visible security was much as it had been in recent weeks.
Egypt defends United States' use of force
The Associated Press
CAIRO, Egypt — In a first reaction to the U.S. military response in Afghanistan, Egypt's foreign minister said yesterday that the United States must have "solid grounds" for strikes.
But Foreign Minister Ahmed Maher refused to say whether Egypt shared America's belief that Osama bin Laden was behind the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
attacks.
"We are not the investigators, and we believe in the judicial system of the United States," the foreign minister said. "I believe the United States and the other countries are convinced. I'm sure they would not have acted without solid grounds."
Maher's hedged support for U.S. evidence on bin Laden reflected the deep unease of his moderate Arab government, which shares a common enemy in religious extremists but whose citizens are not supportive of attacks on a fellow Muslim country.
But Egypt, seen as a voice of moderation, is a key opinion shaper in the Middle East.
Maher expressed Egypt's "solidarity" with the United States in the fight against terrorism.
But he said Middle East terrorism would persist as low as Palestinians were denied statehood.
The foreign minister upheld what he called Palestinians' right to keep fighting Israel.
"The right of resistance ... to oppressors cannot be denied," he said. "There is an enormous difference between resistance and terrorism."
Family fears jailed aid worker in danger
The Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Relatives of an American aid worker jailed in Afghanistan said yesterday that they feared for her safety now that U.S. air strikes have begun, but they are glad the United States refused to negotiate with the Taliban in exchange for her release.
Dayna Curry, a 29-year-old Tennessee native was arrested Aug. 3 along with another American four Germans and two Australians. She remains in the custody of Afghanistan's Taliban regime, which strictly interprets the teachings of Islam, on charges of preaching Christianity. Curry's relatives were keeping close to their televisions and cell phones
Leanne Malone, Curry's cousin, said family members got a "sick feeling in the pit of our stomachs" when they first heard of the air strikes. But they were equally unsettled by the Taliban's offer the day before to release the aid workers if Washington stopped its threats and began negotiations.
began negotiations. The United States has demanded that the Taliban hand over Osama bin Laden and has said the demand is non-negotiable.
dellum" we didnt negotiate," We didn't want the United States to negotiate," Malone said. "There'a trust issue. It's hard to know if we could take them at their word."

Today's Birthday (Oct. 9)
Today's Birthday (Oct. 3).
This is the year you go to model school or boot camp. You get to learn how to do everything perfectly, which fork to use for salad, how to iron a dress shirt properly, how to curtsy or salute. The good news is, you'll be an even more gracious lady or gentleman than before, so don't complain. Get into it.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 5. Others may be pushing you to take quick action, but you'd better be cautious. If what you hear doesn't quite make sense, use your own better judgment. Don't let someone else's mistake get you into a mess.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 7. You've had your attention on business lately. A loved one may be feeling neglected. Make up for it with a special treat. Don't try to explain what you've been going through. A special meal shared together will express your love better.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 6.
If you're laying the groundwork for a big deal, don't get pushy. Find out what people want, and think of ways you could provide it. Do the preliminary work, but don't trush. New developments tomorrow require further consideration.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 7.
No more Mr. Nice Guy or Ms. Nicie Gal.
You don't like to be pushy, but your opinion matters, too. Somebody else has been freely expressing theirs, so why shouldn't you?
Loe (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 6.
Are you obsessing about something?
Possibly about whether you're doing a tough job right? You always want to be the best, but it's not easy when you're getting conflicting orders. Don't rush.
They may change their minds again.
Virge (Aug. 23-Sept. 22), Today is a 7.
A friend who's asking for assistance needs advice, not a loan. This person has resources they haven't even tapped yet. You can be more useful as an educator than you can be as a lending agency. Besides, your money has already been allocated.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 7.
If you're having trouble going along with a sensitive person, don't push.
Don't bring up a controversial subject, either, if you can help it. You're pretty direct, but you don't need to be. Discretion is advised.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 7.
You and your sweetheart or dear friend would like to have a luxurious outing, but is now the time? Not quite. There are still a couple of details to be checked off your list.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is 6.
Time to get practical again. Tell your friends to meet you on Thursday or Friday. You have to take care of business now. Pay the bills. Buy the groceries. Schedule meetings for another time. The less said now, the better.
Two Friends
Crab
P
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 6.
Don't ask for any favors. Bosses, parents and bureaucracals will be feeling more pressured than generous. It seems like there's not enough to go around, though that just shows a lack of imagination. Offer encouragement, and hold your criticism.
Lion
and you need to be a 9.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 9.
The assignments are starting to stack up, so pay attention. The new jobs are showing up before the old jobs are finished. Better get more efficient and quickly. No more long phone calls to friends when you should be working.
Piscas (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 7.
Your romantic evening should go very well. If a sensitive subject comes up, like money for example, let your sweetheart have his or her say. If you don't try to fix it, it'll heal all by itself.

to let schools see how their student athlete graduation rates compared to their overall rate."
Buskirk's right. It's not fair to compare Stanford's student-athlete graduation rate with that of Iowa State. But when a football team's graduation rate is significantly less than the school's student-athlete graduation rate, that's wrong.
It means athletics departments, university administrators and coaches aren't doing their job. They're prioritizing athletics above education and neglecting the very people, student-athletes, whom they asked to trust them.
Take Colorado's football mission statement. First on the list is to win the Big 12 Title. Academic success is its third priority. That's why the Buffaloos graduated just 36 percent of their 1994 freshmen class.
College athletics, in its purest form, was about student-athletes participating in sports, while getting an education. At some schools, that time has passed.

The fouls contributed to 94 yards in penalties against Kansas. The team averaged a loss of 84 yards on penalties in its first three games, though it gave away a season-high 106 yards two weeks ago against Colorado.
Sophomore running back Reggie Duncan said that with the mistakes behind them, the Jayhawks could now focus on playing Oklahoma on Saturday.
Notes
freshman did not start at quarterback in Kansas' 34-31 win Saturday.
Kinsey was benched because he missed Kansas' practice on Thursday, Sept. 27, without informing anyone, Allen said.
Kinsey's vacation to Waco, Texas, had begun a day early. The team had been given Friday, Saturday and Sunday off during the team's bye weekend.
Kinsey replaced sophomore Zach Dyer, who started the game, early in the second quarter Saturday. Kinsey led Kansas to its first road win since October of last season.
Duncan and kicker Johnny Beck were awarded co-Big 12 Conference player of the week awards yesterday.
Duncan shared the offensive player of the week honors with Nebraska quarterback Eric Crouch. Beck was paired with Missouri kicker Brad Hammerich for special teams player of the week.
Beck booted four of five field goals against the Red Raiders. His field goals two from 42 yards out, one from 44 yards and one 37-yarder — brought his season total to eight out of nine as a true freshman. His last field goal provided the game-winning points in Kansas' victory.
Duncan posted career highs in both carries, 38, and yards, 227, in Kansas' victory against Texas Tech. It was the eighth-highest rushing game in school history.

Texas A&M to face Colorado in big game
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The spotlight shifts from Dallas to Boulder for the biggest game in the Big 12 Conference this week.
No. 25 Texas A&M, unbeaten in five games, travels to the mountains to play No. 20 Colorado, which finally broke into the national rankings with a 16-6 upset of then-No. 12 Kansas State.

CU
The winner will take another giant step toward musculing its way onto center stage. The loser could drop back into the pack.
back into the hall. "This is a big, big game for us," said Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum. "I see Colorado as being a very good, solid team. If we can go up there as underdogs and play with them, then I'll feel much better about our team. I'm going to withhold judgment until I see how we play against Colorado."
Although they'd been unranked because of a season-opening loss to then-unranked Fresno State, coach Gary Barnett insists the Buffaloes are paying little attention to such things as polls.
“This time of year, none of that stuff makes any difference to coaches or players, really. It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish,” he said. “It doesn’t get you anything, absolutely nothing. I don’t even know where we are, to tell you the truth.”
He's also getting impatient with people who rave about the great effort his team put forth against Kansas State.
"We've had great effort every week," Barnett said. "People expect that if you play hard and play great, you're going to win by 50 points. But the truth is there's another team out there playing hard. That doesn't seem to be understood. There are two sets of coaches working hard. It comes down to this play or that play or a couple of plays. There's so much parity, there's not much difference between players or coaches."
In the eyes of many, Kansas State
players were not the only ones who embarrassed themselves in the loss to the Buffs. Players on both teams commented about the way the home crowd booed at the end of the game and left early in droves.
"It was disappointing," said guard John Robertson. "We're looking up and the game's not quite over yet and you see fans leaving the game early. It's like, OK, they've already counted us out."
Coach Bill Snyder said he was too occupied with running the game to notice.
"I was focused on the ball game and I had the headphones on. I don't know what the issues were with the crowd," Snyder said. "If that was the case, then I would be tremendously disappointed."
For Texas coach Mack Brown, this year's 14-3 loss to Oklahoma had a different feel from last year's 63-14 rout.
"Last year's loss was embarrassing. This year's was hurtful," he said. "But you could say we were a few plays away from beating the best team in the country. So that's a lot more positives than last year."
Is Oklahoma the best in the country?
"I haven't seen Florida at all. Miami, I saw against Pittsburgh. But Oklahoma has to be considered in that group." Brown said.
Iowa State's Dan McCarney said Nebraska "out-hit us, outclassed us, out-coached us" while taking a 41-0 halftime lead over the Cyclones. But Nebraska Frank Solich said that was no garden variety first half on the Huskers' part.
"It was the best half of football we've had all season," he said.
Texas Tech got stung worse than anybody last week by the injury bug. The Red Raiders lost their best offensive player, quarterback Cliff Kingsbury, and their best defensive player, linebacker Lawrence Flugence, during the overtime loss to Kansas.
"The leading tackler was Lawrence Flugence. Then you've got Cliff, who I consider the best quarterback in the league, go out at the end of the third quarter," said coach Mike Leach. "It had an impact. But we had plenty opportunities to beat Kansas, and we just didn't."

Offensive averages dip with bigger strike zone
Here's something that makes Barry Bonds' home-run record even more impressive: It came in a down year for baseball offense.
Pitchers, helped by a bigger strike zone, regained a little ground in their never-ending battle with batters. Scoring was down 7.1 percent this season, home runs were down 4.2 percent, and the overall ERA dipped 7.4 percent.
There were 5,458 homers this season,
an average of 2.25 per game.
That was down from 5,693 homers
and a record 2.34 average last year
— even below the 2.27 average in 1999.
Twelve players hit 40 or more
homers, four fewer than last year, and
hit 41 hit 30 or more, down from a record
47 last year. Forty six players had 100
RBIs, down from 53 last season and
13 below 1999's record.
Runs per game dropped to 9.55 from 10.28, the overall batting average fell to .264 from .270, and the overall ERA declined from 4.76 to 4.41, according to the Elias Sports Bureau, a baseball statistician.
In perhaps the biggest proof the strike zone really did get bigger, strikeouts were up 3.3 percent, to 13.34 per game from 12.90. And walks decreased 13.3 percent, to 6.51 per game from 7.50.
All during spring training, baseball officials promised that umpires would
enlarge the strike zone, which had gotten lower and wider, and would restore the rule-book definition of a strike: any pitch over the plate from the top of the knees to the midpoint between the top of the shoulders and the top of uniform pants.
"I think we have made real progress," said Sandy Alderson, executive vice president of baseball operations in the commissioner's office. "I don't think we're there yet with consistency among all umpires and from game to game. I think the vast majority of umpires made the effort to make the adjustment and I would expect next year you will see even greater conformity to the rule book definition."
Partly because there were fewer walks and pitches, the average time of a nine-inning game dropped — but not by very much — to 2 hours, 54 minutes from a record 2:58 in 2000.
"I really didn't have an expectation about what the differences would be," Alderson said. "We were looking to make sure the rule book would be enforced, and we were prepared to live whatever the consequences."
Despite the opening of new ballparks in Milwaukee and Pittsburgh, attendance was flat. According to preliminary figures, the average attendance was 30,050, up 0.1 percent from 30,013.

Pooh's 75th celebrated abroad
The Associated Press
HARTFIELD, England — Pooh Bear is 75, and his fans still enjoy a good "exposition" to Ashdown Forest, site of Milne's "Hundred Aker Wood."
The wood is where the bear of very little brain feasted on "hunny" and hunted the mythical Woozie with his friends, bouncable Tigger the tiger, timid Piglet, busy Rabbit, Eeyore the mournful donkey and that wise bird, Owl.
But some locals are crying. "Bother."
"So many people come here because of Pooh, and residents feel swamped. The spirit of anti-Poohism is rampant in this area," said Simon Kerr, a resident of Hartfield, an idyllic village 30 miles south of London where Milne raised his son, Christopher Robin.
After a survey showed most local people preferred to play down the Pooh connection, Wealden District Council has
So on the big day, Sunday, Oct. 14, the hunny-splashed parties will take place elsewhere.
"Oh yes, we're celebrating," said Peter Stansfield, head of consumer marketing at Egmont Books, the British publishers who produce the two Pooh volumes "Winnie the Pooh" and "The House at Pooh Corner" under the Methuen imprint.
At the Edinburgh Festival in August, Egmont threw a birthday party for Pooh with entertainers and balloons that will be repeated at bookstores later.
On the day itself, A.A. Milne will read at the Cheltenham Festival of Literature in southern England with cake and a cheerful chorus of "Happy Birthday."
Special Egmont anniversary
publications include "Now We Are 75," a selection of Pooh stories and verse.
Disney Corp., the New York Public Library and libraries and bookstores in other countries are also organizing readings and events.
Pooh stories have been translated into more than 25 languages.
Milne created Pooh after his 5-year-old son was introduced to a female American black bear cub called Winnie at London Zoo. The zoo still has pictures of a young Christopher feeding the bear condensed milk.
Milne rarely read his works to his son. In a letter to his friend, Dennis, the actor, Christopher Milne confided: "My father did not write the books for children. He didn't write for any specific market; he knew nothing about marketing. He knew about me, he knew about himself, he knew about the Garrick Club (in London) — he was ignorant about anything else. Except, perhaps, about life."

Rams' strong passing leads to victory over Lions
PONTIAC, Mich. — The St. Louis Rams thrive on the pass. The Detroit Lions die by it, which is one reason the Rams are unbeaten and the Lions are winless.
The Associated Press
Kurt Warner threw three touchdown passes and Dre' Bly returated an interception of Ty Detmer 93 vards for a
(
score Monday night as the Rams remained the NFL's only unbeaten team with a 55-0 victory over the Lions.
It was hard to tell if the Rams (4-0)
were good or the Lions (0-3) were bad
in a game that was really never in doubt
after Warner threw first-half touchdown passes of 15 yards to Az-Zahir Hakim and 36 yards to Torry Holt. Those scores capped two drives in which Warner threw 16 straight times.
"You know Kurt, he'll get you the ball," Holt said. "You just have to make sure you get in the right spot."
PACIFIC STATE
Bly picked
off an ill-thrown pass by Detmer, who was intercepted seven times by Cleveland in the Lions' last game, and returned it for a TD to make it 21-0 at halftime.
on came Charlie Batch, whom Detmer had replaced after a 28-6 opening-
week loss in Green Bay. Batch had no better luck—he completed his first two passes, but his third was intercepted in the end zone by Dexter McCleon.
Then, after driving the Lions 55 yards to the St. Louis 8, Batch was sacked by Leonard Little and fumbled. The ball was recovered by Grant Wistrom, who returned the ball for an apparent touchdown, but the Rams were penalized for running on the field after the recovery and the touchdown was nullified.
"It just felt good to get in," said Batch, who was 11-of-16 for 113 yards. "I'm just disappointed that we didn't score."
It really didn't matter.
So easy was it for the Rams to pass on a Lions secondary minus Bryant Westbrook, recovering from a torn Achilles' tendon, that St. Louis ran the ball just three times in the first half while Warner
went 16-of-21 for 197 yards, many of them underneath Detroit's deep zone. Warner finished 29-of-37 for 291 yards.
Detner was 15-of-18 for 149 yards, a decent figure if there ever was one.
The Rams scored twice in the final quarter on Warner's third TD pass, a 1-yarder to Ernie Conwell, and a 6-yard run by Marshall Faulk.
It was like most of the drive — short hitches and outs underneath the Detroit defense.
turby Marsh took a 7-0 lead with 3:30 left in the first quarter on Warner's pass to Hakim at the end of an 80-yard drive that took 10 plays, all passes. The 15-yard scoring play was a 5-yard flip over the line to Hakim, who sidestepped Jimmy Wryrick and danced in.
The first time Warner went deep was on the next series, hitting Holt from 36
yards behind Ron Rice to make it 14-0
2:29 into the second quarter.
Even when the Detroit offense moved, it ultimately failed.
Late in the second quarter, it drove from its own 38 to the St. Louis 16. But Detmer threw off his back foot right to Bly, who took it 93 yards untouched to make it 21-0.
Notes: Faulk lost a fumble for the first time since 1999, a stretch of 502 handles without losing the ball. ... The Lions turned over the ball three times inside the St. Louis 30. ... St. Louis cornerback Aeneas Williams left the game in the first quarter with a pinched nerve in his neck. He returned in the second half. ... Detroit fans became so bored in the second half that they began chanting "Let's Go Red Wings."

The heroes on the field may lose out on a degree
Kansas 62. Oklahoma 49.
Kansas 62, Oklahoma 49.
That's not a prediction of this Sat
urday's homecoming game.
It's not a basketball score.
It's the student-athlete graduation rate for both schools.
The University has the third-best student-athlete graduation rate in the Big 12 Conference. Only Texas with 63 percent, and Baylor, a private school, with a rate of 67 percent, topped Kansas.
The Jayhawks might not give fans much to be proud of on the football field, but this gives students and alumni something to be smug about. Despite the heat that the Athletics Department has taken in the last few months (it cut men's tennis and swimming and has been investigated for embezzlement by the KU Public Safety Office), it has taken care of its most important asset — the student-athletes.
The NCAA released a month ago the graduation rates of student-athletes who entered college in 1994, the most recent year for which figures were tabulated. Kansas' rate was four points higher than the Division I average of 58 percent. The average for all Division I public schools was 54 percent. Half the schools in the Big 12 had student-athlete graduation rates less than the public school average.
If Kansas could get credit on the football field for what its players have done in the classroom, the Jayhawks might have a chance at a bowl this year. Fifty-six percent of the 1994 freshmen recruiting class graduated, only Baylor, 67 percent, and Kansas State, 77 percent, finished better than Kansas.
The average graduation rate for all D-I football players was 51 percent, and eight Big 12 schools fell below that mark. What's worse is that Iowa State, Missouri and Oklahoma State each were more than 10 points below the average, with the Cowboys graduating a pitiful 17 percent.
That's pathetic.
But in Missouri's case it makes sense. Some of the best football teams have poor graduation rates.
The Tigers were 8-4 and won the Insight.com Bowl in 1998. The football players who entered college in 1994 would have been seniors that season. The Tennessee football team, which defeated Florida State for the national championship in 1998, had a graduation rate of 35 percent, far less than the Volunteers' overall student-athlete graduation rate of 59 percent.
Florida, which finished 10-2 and beat Syracuse 31-10 in the Orange Bowl that season, graduated just 31 percent of its 1994 freshmen class. Other top-tier college football teams Florida State, UCLA, Michigan State and Texas A&M, which won the Big 12 championship in 1998 had rates less than the national average.
"That's certainly a trend that many people have noticed," said Paul Buskirk, associate athletics director for student support services at Kansas."But I don't know if you can make an absolute corollary to good football teams and low graduation rates. The NCAA crafted this survey

Penalties nearly cost game
Kansas gives Texas 94 yards, 10 points,and a home loss
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
On an unusually frigid western Texas Saturday night, tempers flared for the Kansas football team, resulting in personal fouls that could have cost the Jayhawks their second win.
At least 10 yards and an automatic first down were attached to each of Kansas' four personal fouls. Two of the four came on two possessions that ended in 10 Texas Tech points in the Jayhawks' 34-31 double overtime win this weekend.
"I told my team after the game that if we would have lost, it would have been because of penalties," said Kansas coach Terry Allen.
Kansas' first personal foul resulted in a 27-yard Red Raider field goal. Chasing the play from his right defensive tackle spot,
senior Marquis Hayes lunged forward and knocked his helmet into Red Raider wide receiver Nehemiah Glover after he was down.
The Jayhawks' third club came on a Texas Tech third down and seven from the Kansas 49-yard line. Red Raider quarterback Kliff Kingsbury threw an errant pass to wide receiver Anton Paige, but his offense was given new life after Kansas freshman defensive end Travis Watkins was caught using an illegal pass-rushing move.
84 84
Kansas' fourth flagrant foul was more a matter of effort than emotion. At the end of the first overtime, senior cornerback Quincy Roe raced around the right corner in an attempt to block the kick. The momentum carried his body into the Texas Tech
"The referee told me that he got his arms stuck, but it is a common thing to do in the pass rush." Allen said. "Overall, though, the game was fair."

Jennifer Bawanan practices her drives at the Alvamar Golf Club driving range. Bawanan recently won the Sunflower Cup, shooting a 71, one under par and claiming victory in a one-hole playoff.
Young golfer feeling confident
California native starts sophomore year with first tournament win
By John Domoney Kansan sportswriter
Jennifer Bawanan felt a sense of calmness as she navigated a one-hole playoff for first place at the Sunflower Cup tournament.
"I was actually more nervous on the 18th hole that I bogeyed," said Bawanan, who fired a 1-under-par 71 that forced the playoff in the Sept. 26 tournament in Manhattan. "I wasn't nervous in the playoff because the whole team was there, and coach was there rooting me on."
Bawanan came to Kansas in the summer of 2000 after completing a stellar high school career. She played in 18
With the victory, Bawanan emerged as one of Kansas' top women's golfers.
With her team standing by for support, the sophomore from Modesto, Calif., saw no reason to be anxious two weeks ago as she took on Kansas State's Christine Boucher for the individual title.
tournaments her senior year, winning each one of them.
As a KU freshman last year, Bawanan said she was confident that her time to shine wouldn't be far off. The Golden State student competed for the Jayhawks in 10 tournaments.
Bawanan's first collegiate win came at a tournament that wasn't originally on the Jayhawks' schedule. The Sunflower Cup was played because both Kansas and Kansas State needed a tournament after both teams were left with long gaps in their schedules. Each team lost a tournament the cancellation of the Mary Fossum Intercollegiate on Sept. 15-16 after the terrorist attacks.
For Bawanan, it was the lucky break she needed to jump start her sophomore campaign as a Jayhawk.
bawanan was a key member of the first recruiting class brought in by Kansas coach Nicole Hollingsworth, who took charge of the program last fall.
"She was going to be a very important recruit for me because she was my first recruit," Hollingsworth said.
Although Bawanan has found a home in Lawrence, she still regularly hears
questions in California about her leaving for Kansas.
"I get that question about every time I come home," Bawanan said. "KU is so much different than the California schools. This town is so centered around the University and there's a lot of pride in the school."
This summer Bawanan returned home and focused on her golf game.
Not only did she take lessons and practice nearly every day, but she also competed in tournaments on the California amateur circuit and the Transamerica amateur tournament in South Dakota.
The work has paid off for Bawanan, as she has become one the Jayhawks' top performers and the only sophomore on the squad.
"Freshman year, I had to get used to a lot of stuff with balancing school, golf and social life," Bawanan said. "Now I know what I need to do and how to do it."

Men second after first day; women improving
By John Domoney
Kansan sportswriter
After the first day of tournament competition for the Kansas men's and women's golf teams, both teams fared well in their quests for success on the road.
The men's team completed its first and second rounds in the Purina-Missouri Bluffs Classic yesterday with the play that the Jayhawks have come to expect.

Knowing that this tournament would be crucial to its fall schedule, Kansas stands in second place after the two opening rounds in which the team shot rounds of 291 and 282 for a total score of 573. The Jayhawks' only trail leader University of Illinois by 4 shots heading into today's final round.
"We played well in the first round until the last couple of holes where we then faltered," said coach Ross Randall. "After the second round, we got ourselves back in a position to have a good round and a decent run at the title tomorrow."
Leading the Kansas attack was sophomore Tyler Hall, who carded a two-round total of 141 for eighth place. Junior Chris Marshall shot a 143 to tie for 11th place, and senior Travis Hurst shot a 144 for a tie in 16th place.
Also competing for Kansas are red shirt freshman Andrew Price and freshman Kevin Ward. Price is tied for 32nd place after he fired a 147, and Ward shot a 149 good enough for a tie in 49th.
Senior Casey Harbour competed for Kansas as an individual and carded a 151 for a tie for 57th place.
While the Kansas men's team stands in a position to compete for the tournament title today in the final round. the
Kansas women's team isn't in position to shoot for a first-place finish in the Women's Collegiate Shootout. The team shot rounds of 307 and 311 for a total score of 618 that positions itself in 16th place in the 19-team tournament.
The Jayhawks, however, were delighted after they shot their best two team rounds of the fall in yesterday's two opening rounds.
"Overall, I am happy with our efforts today," said coach Nicole Hollingsworth. "It is our best team performance this fall, and our competition is playing fabulously."
Juniors Jill MacDonald and Heather Rose turned in the best scores for Kansas; both are tied for 46th after their two round totals of 153.
Also competing for Kansas are sophomore Jennifer Bawanan and junior

Ex-faculty member files lawsuit against Regents, Med Center
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
A former faculty member at the University of Kansas Medical Center has filed a lawsuit against the Med Center in the U.S. District Court in Kansas City, Kan.
U.S. District Court in Kansas City, Kan.
Fred Whitehead, an associate professor of family medicine who worked at the Med Center for 22 years, claimed in the lawsuit filed on Oct. 1 that he had been deprived of his civil rights when his employment was terminated on June 30 of 2000.
"I have no quarrel with the University of Kansas, to which I devoted nearly a quarter century of my life," Whitehead said.
he earned nearly a quarter century of my life. I remember, he said his lawsuit was directed at the University adminis- tor from the University.
Whitehead said the basis of his lawsuit was due process.
Whitehead said the business officer "Upon my promotion to associate professor in July of 1999. I should have been given a three-year contract," Whitehead said. "I was kept on an annual contract, in violation of Regents policy."
The defendants named in the lawsuit include the Kansas State Board of Regents, Deborah Powell, executive dean and vice chancellor for clinical affairs of the Med Center, and Donald Hagen, executive vice chancellor of the Med Center.
John McFadden, associate general counsel for the University, said his office had yet to be served with a lawsuit filed by Whitehead and his attorneys from the Sanders, Simpson, Fletcher and Smith law firm.
McFadden said it would be impossible to comment on the plaintiff's complaint without seeing the lawsuit.
Timothy Daaleman, associate professor of family medicine, worked with Whitehead for about eight years.
"Fred was a longstanding faculty member, and actually was in charge of a preceptor program that put fourth-year medical students out in rural assignments for practical experience," Daaleman said.
Daaleman said. He said he had no knowledge of Whitehead's alleged difficulties at the Med Center.
The lawsuit states that Whitehead is seeking reinstatement as an associate professor, in addition to relief for costs and attorney fees and any other relief deemed just and equitable by the courts.
No trial date has been set.

U.S. retaliation prompts mixed campus reactions of fear, disapproval
By Eve Lamborn Kansan staff writer
Although the military strikes are occurring half a world away, members of the University community are being affected by the United States' decision to bomb Afghanistan.
Mansoor Shaffie, Lenexa junior, said he had family members in Pakistan, where massive riots erupted in response to the U.S. bombing campaign.
the U.S. bombing campaign "Naturally I'm worried about them," he said of his aunt and grandparents living in Pakistan.
grandparents living in the U.S. Shaffie said he had not spoken with them since the U.S. started the air strikes on Sunday, but he did not think they were in any direct danger. He said he thought the decision to start bombing was premature and the United States should investigate the situation more.
gate the situation
Philip Schrodt, professor of political science, also said he thought the decision to start bombing came too early. He said the bombing campaign would not accomplish much, plus it carried the possibility of hitting the wrong targets.
“It's not clear when we finish the strikes that we will be able to do anything about Osama bin Laden that we weren't able to do before,” he said. “There’s not much accomplished militarily.”
Schrodt said the bombing campaign also made it more difficult for the United States to form an international coalition to fight terrorism because other countries might see this as another example of the United States throwing its weight around.
He said the U.S. gained support from the international community by not retaliating.
"Whatever benefit we had by holding off is gone," he said. Carol Dias de Silva, Rio de Janiero, Brazil, sophomore, said the decision to start bombing did not surprise her.
"I was expecting something like that," she said. "Of course, I'm afraid of retaliation."
Abby Huckvale, Winfield junior, said she felt the consequences of the bombing could be good or bad.
quercies of the goals they have set, then it's a good thing," she said. "But, if we don't get the leaders, then it's a bad thing."
Voucher fraud examined

Faulty bookkeeping blamed for entertainment expenses found in University audit
By Jay Krail
Kansan sports editor
The attorney for former Williams Fund director Scott McMichael acknowledged yesterday that McMichael's entertainment expenses had been evaluated by a KU Public Safety Office investigation for possible embezzlement.
Bill Skepnek, McMichael's attorney, also said he thought that vouchers, which had been submitted for $8,324 in expenses that were suspected fraudulent, were a result of improper bookkeeping by the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation.
He said McMichael had done nothing
wrong and that KUAC had not been diligent about recording his expenses.
"As far as we are concerned, this thing is about proper accounting," Skepnek said. "It's really an unfortunate thing to Scott, who's a longtime KU guy who is being publicly pillared over this."
McMichael resigned Aug. 10, the same day KUAC filed a report with the Public Safety Office stating that a University of Kansas audit had discovered the possible embezzlement.
McMichael cited personal and family reasons for his resignation. He had not given prior notice.
Skepnek said that because he did not have access to the investigation's report, he did not know whether the fraudulent vouchers had been submitted by McMichael or by another employee.
"KUPD is disputing some of these expense items. I don't know that the $8,000 relates to that," Skepnek said.
The public safety office has declined to identify a suspect in the embezzlement, which it reports took place between Aug. 13, 1999 and Aug.2,2001.
Douglas County District Attorney Christine Kenney said she could not comment on the content of the Public Safety Office's report. She said she received the report Monday and hoped to complete her review by the end of this week.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the Public Safety Office said the office had completed its investigation and was waiting to see if the district attorney would need additional information.
Doug Vance, director of sports information for the Athletics Department, declined to comment.

Lenexa residents Megan Moxley (left) and Anna Rebottaro examine their maps inside the X-Fish corn maze, 1446 E. 1800 Rd. The maze — named for the fish it resembles from an aerial view — has two watch towers that people can use to check their bearings if they become lost.
Corn maze popularity increases
No safety regulations exist for the farm field creations, but owners assure patrons there's no need to worry
By Kelley Weiss and Jessica Tims Specials to the Kansan
Being lost in a corn field may be fun, but if Halloween fright turns into a real nightmare, don't count on county safety codes to protect you.
Keith Dabney, Douglas County Zoning and Building Code director, said there were no set regulations on corn mazes, which have grown in popularity in Douglas County during the fall season.

"It's not a structure," Dabney said. "It's just corn."
approval but the county Richard Strong, owner of the Haunted Corn Maze, said the danger of a fire wasn't a major concern. He also said the county watched the maze's fire codes, security, sanitation issues and parking.
He said a prospective business could obtain a temporary business permit after receiving approval from the county commission.
Eugene Westerhouse, Eudora Township Trustee in charge of 20 to 30 volunteer fire fighters, presented concerns about emergency vehicle accessibility at a recent county commission meeting.
The only complaint about the Haunted Corn Maze, 1919 N. 1500 Rd. in Eudora, was from a neighbor complaining about loud noise.
"I just want my fire trucks to be able to get in." he said.
in, he said
The 10-acre X-Fish corn maze, 1446 E. 1800 Rd. in Eudora can take an hour or more to go through. Maze owner John Pendleton said a staff member patrolled the maze with a two-way radio. He said a first aid kit was in the maze.
Both owners said they did not have an emergency action plan. They said that the mazes were made of corn, so if people needed to exit they could step out of the maze.
At the 8-acre Haunted Corn Maze, which takes about 15 minutes to complete, Strong said three to four emergency exits exist. Strong said customers were given flashlights at night and that the actors in the maze kept an eye on them.
Pendleton and Strong suggested that customers concerned about their safety while in a maze take their own safety precautions.

"This summer a 90-year-old woman told me before entering the maze that she probably wouldn't be able to make it all the way through." Pendleton said. "She had a whistle with her and told me that when she was done, she would blow the whistle. I had the golf cart ready and near by when she whistled, and it ended up working well."

The X-Fish is open through the end of October from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays through Fridays; 8 a.m. to dusk on Saturdays; and 1 p.m. to dusk on Sundays. The Haunted Corn Maze, which doesn't sell tickets after 10 p.m., is open during the day and becomes a haunted maze after dusk.

Graves weighs tax hike, gambling to help budget
TOPEKA — Gov. Bill Graves is considering proposals to increase taxes and allow more gambling as he and his staff deal with budget problems that have become more severe since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Graves told reporters yesterday he was looking at proposals for raising money for government programs. He acknowledged that he and legislators might have to break some of the biggest political promises they made if they can't agree on raising new revenue.
the governor's Budget Division had assumed the state would see its tax collections increase between $100 million and $130 million during the state's 2003 fiscal year, which begins July 1, 2002. The division has compiled a list of commitments under federal and state law that could require more than $200 million in new spending.
Since the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, Graves and his staff haven't been sure how much extra revenue the state will collect in fiscal 2003 — if any.

Crews say passengers are essential to airline safety
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Airline crews said yesterday that after the terrorist attacks, they were counting on passengers to help protect them the way they did when they tackled a deranged man who broke into a cockpit this week.
week:
"We used to have a saying at the Air Force that security is everybody's business," said Herb Hunter, a United pilot and spokesman for the Air Line Pilots Association. "That could never be more true than it is right now."
Airline security has been a top concern since the suicide hijackings Sept. 11. Airports and airlines have increased security measures, but there were some tense moments Monday aboard an American Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Chicago.
Passengers said Edward Coburn, 31, of Fresno, Calif., ran to the cockpit and knocked open the door while screaming that the plane was going to hit the Sears Tower. He was restrained by a gang of passengers and two pilots, and the plane with 162 people aboard landed safely. Coburn was jailed on charges of interfering with a flight crew.
"Iloved what I saw," said JoAnn Rockman of Flosmoor, Ill., who watched her fellow passengers subdue Coburn. "The stewardess yelled, 'Get that guy!' and half the plane got up."
Passengers at first thought Coburn might be a terrorist. His father later told authorities that his son had failed to take his medication for his mental illness. There were no sky marshals on the flight.
New state of matter discovered
The Associated Press
Three U.S.-based researchers won the Nobel Prize in physics yesterday for creating a new state of matter — a kind of super-cold gas that could help scientists build tinier electronics, faster computers and ultra-precise clocks and measuring instruments.
The $943,000 award will be shared by Americans Eric A. Cornell, 39, of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colo.; Carl E. Wieman, 50, of the University of Colorado in Boulder; and a German, Wolfgang Ketterle, 43, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
In 1995, the Colorado researchers and Ketterle made gases so cold that multiple atoms began to behave as one, or "sing in
unison," as the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences put it.
The atoms formed what scientists call a Bose-Einstein condensate, a state of matter different from solids, liquids or gases. The existence of such a state of matter was first theorized by Albert Einstein.
Ketterle, who worked independently of the others, also showed that the condensates could be made to give off pulses of matter a primitive sort of atom laser that emits matter instead of light.
Scientists said the condensates and atom lasers could lead to smaller and faster electronic circuits laid down by tiny beams of atoms.
Marine's family likely to receive $1 million-plus after plane crash
NATION
FORT WORTH, Texas — The manufacturers of the Osprey have agreed to pay more than $1 million to the family of a Marine killed in one of two deadly crashes of the aircraft, the family's lawyer said.
Robert Parks, attorney for the family of Lt. Col. Keith Sweaney, said he had been preparing a lawsuit against Boeing Co. and Bell Helicopter Texton, which make the $43 million Osprey. He said they agreed to pay "substantially more" than $1 million after a mediation session last month in Washington.
Fort Worth-based Bell and Seattle-based Boeing declined to comment beyond confirming the settlement.
"There is a confidentiality clause, and we're abiding by it," Bell spokesman Bob Leder said.
Sweeney, 42, was among four Marines killed in December when their Osprey crashed and burned in the woods near Jack sonville, N.C., on the way back from a training flight.

Biotech foods deemed safer than conventional crops
BRUSSELS, Belgium — Contradicting the prevailing sentiment in Europe against biotech crops, a report yesterday from the European Union's head office suggested they may even be safer than regular foods.
The biosafety report summarizes 81 research projects financed by the EU during the last 15 years, at a cost of $64 million, on genetically modified crops and products made from them.
The research has not found "any new risks to human health or the environment, beyond the usual uncertainties of conventional plant breeding," said the European Commission, the EU's executive branch.
"Indeed, the use of more precise technology and the greater regulatory scrutiny probably make them even safer than conventional plants and foods."
No unforeseen environmental effects have shown up, but even if they do, "these should be rapidly detected by existing monitoring systems," the commission added.

Lawrence lacks Halloween thrills
By Christy Dendurent and Sarah Hill Special to the Kansas
Fright seekers will notice a spooky void in Lawrence again this Halloween. It's been four years since the city has had a haunted house within its limits.
Brian Pedrotti, city/county planner, said his office issued many permits in the 1980s, but only a handful in the 1990s.
"The last haunted house in Lawrence was in 1997, at the old Quantrill's Flea Market at 811 New Hampshire," Pedrotti said.
A lot of work is involved in a temporary event such as a Halloween attraction.
The city and county both regulate
the effect a haunted house would have on surrounding areas. Organizers must meet parking, sanitation and fire codes to ensure maximum public safety.
"The fire department, sheriff and health department have to inspect the site," said Keith Dabney, director of Douglas County zoning and codes department. "Then, property owners that live within 1,000 feet of the site are notified before the permit can be issued."
The city has similar safety requirements, including building inspections.
"There could be a building permit needed if you add or change a structure," said Lee Smith, city zoning enforcement officer.
To operate a haunted house in
Lawrence, one must apply for a temporary use permit from the City Planning Office. Users may renew the permit biweekly for up to two months. Pedrotti said.
For Lawrence residents, the options are limited for spooky thrills during the Halloween season.
some students make the drive to the Kansas City area for giant haunted houses in abandoned factories and warehouses, such as The Beast and The Edge of Hell. Both haunted houses costs $15 a piece and a combo package is $26.
Full Moon Productions, the company that owns both haunted houses, would not comment for this article.
Liz Boldridge, Lawrence senior.
said she was unsure about the success of haunted houses in Lawrence.
Brice McLever has never gone to the haunted houses in Kansas City.
For some students, the cost and travel time aren't worth the drive.
"If we did have haunted houses here in Lawrence, my guess is that they would be nothing compared to those in Kansas City."
"I just don't feel like driving all the way to Kansas City, standing in line for half an hour, then paying $15 to go through a haunted house for 20 minutes," said McLiver, Topeka senior.

State budget changes mean more money for KU
Rv Paul Smith
Kansan staff writer
A change in the budget allocation process for state universities may result in a small increase in money for the University of Kansas this year, despite a slight drop in enrollment.
provost David Shulenburger said students enrolled in approximately 500 more credit hours this semester than last semester, and that under a new tuition retention policy this tuition increase may yield a bit of profit for the University.
The tuition retention policy is part of a new funding strategy approved last year by the Legislature. The policy leaves tuition receipts outside of consideration when determining
The total amount of tuition resulting from the 500 additional credit hours is undetermined, said Marlin Rein, director of budget and governmental relations. But Rein said the additional credit hours would not provide a substantial gain in revenue.
state funding for universities.
Enrollment at the University fell by 138 students this fall. The University is the only Regents institution in Kansas whose enrollment numbers declined this year.
In accordance with the governor's recommendation, the Legislature approved a block grant proposal for state universities last session, which means that one lump sum will be given to universities instead of the
traditional line item budgets.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said he had urged the change.
"It's a simpler way to budget," he said.
With the tuition retention policy, block grants are also beneficial for the University, said Lindy Eakin, associate provost. He said that tuition revenues were no longer figured into to the state's budget calculations.
"It changes the dynamic," Eakin said. "We actually had some years where the Legislature reduced our state appropriation from one year to the next because we had sufficient tuition to meet our budget increase."
Cindy Denton, budget analyst for state research institutions at the Kansas
Division of the Budget, said the Legislature funded a block grant directly to the University for this fiscal year.
Rein said that the $138.7 million block grant went toward general university operations, while $89.3 million of tuition comprised most of the remainder of the $233.2 million general use budget.
Denton said that starting next year the state block grant would be allocated directly to the Board of Regents.

Kansans asked to be wary of birds that may carry virus
By Sarah Finks Special to the Kansan
The University of Kansas is asking the public to help spot the West Nile Virus, a disease that cycles in birds and mosquitoes and can infect humans and other mammals.
"The closest that West Nile Virus has been detected is in St. Louis," said Oliver Komar, ornithology researcher at the Natural History Museum and Biodiversity Research Center at KU. "The virus has been spreading up the Mississippi valley and west across the Great Lakes region during the year, and it's expected to reach Kansas."
Komar said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention noticed that the virus had been detected earlier through dead bird monitoring. That's why the University is coordinating the effort and asking for help to monitor the virus found in dead birds in Kansas.
and send them off for testing."
"We volunteered to contribute a service for the state," Komar said, "which is to handle the reports of dead birds and to monitor where dead birds are being found, and then to collect the birds, collect tissue samples
Komar said birds infected with the virus may exhibit strange behavior.
"You may notice a bird that's acting somewhat disoriented, maybe it's not flying away when you walk up to it, that could be a sign that it's sick," Komar said.
The University will send samples of dead birds to the National Wildlife Health Center in Wisconsin if people report sightings. The health center is collaborating with the CDC and state governments on doing virus testing, Komar said.
The number to call to report dead birds is the Division of Ornithology at KU's Natural History Museum, 864-3926.
Another way to detect the virus is to monitor hospitals. Most doctors in the state are aware of the virus, Komar said.
The University is responsible for dead bird testing in Kansas. Other institutions are collecting mosquitoes, and some are collecting bird blood samples from chickens to see if chickens are being infected.
Dr. Chris Penn, infectious disease specialist for Lawrence Memorial Hospital, said he had not seen any
patients with the virus.
Symptoms of the virus are non-specific, like a headache, fever, body aches and skin rash. More severe infections may be marked by higher fever, neck stiffness and disorientation, according to the CDC Web site.
"Some people may not even realize they have it." Penn said.
According to the CDC Web site, less than one percent of mosquitoes are infected with the virus. Less than one percent of people who are bitten by a mosquito and contract the virus develop severe infection. Among those with serious illness, death rates range from three percent to 15 percent.
"We have ways of tracking influenza, and we have rapid determination tests to determine if it is flu." Penn said. "The problem is there are many viral infections that are similar to the cold or influenza."
"There's really no specific treatment other than supportive care," Penn said. "We don't have specific antivirals that can treat this virus."
Blood tests determine if a person has West Nile Virus.
Komar said people needed to be aware, but not terrified.
"Any time there's a chance of people getting sick and there's no cure for it, there's some urgency. But at this moment there's no need for anybody to panic," Komar said. "The virus has not yet been detected here. It could be here already, but certainly no one has gotten sick. There's no known cases of any Kansans getting the virus so far."
Komar said if a person or animal contracts the virus, it was no longer contagious.
There are ways to reduce the risks of becoming infected.
"There's lots of times people have mosquito-breeding sites right around their house," Komar said.
He advises people to look out for standing water around their house, including places such as the bottom of trash cans, birdbaths and old rubber tires that accumulate water after a rainstorm. A week or more is enough time for mosquito to breed.
The CDC Web site also recommends using insect repellents that contain DEET and wearing long-sleeved shirts and long pants whenever outdoors to prevent insect bites.

University housing will remain open during fall break
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
Students in campus housing don't have to worry about finding a place to stay during fall break.
University housing will remain open throughout the break, which begins Thursday, Oct.18 and ends Sunday, Oct.21. However, students with meal plans will be able to eat only at Mrs. E's dining commons in front of Lewis Hall.
Dining centers in Oliver Hall and Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall will be closed, said Ken Stoner, director of student housing.
"We are not sure what kind of volume we will have." Stoner said.
Kent Lavene, complex director of McCollum Hall, said he wasn't expecting many students to remain in the buildings during the break.
Stoner said he was curious to see how many people would stay.
Jason Watson, Lincoln, Neb. freshman said he appreciated fall break because he could go home.
"We are not doing anything special, other than seeing it as a long weekend." Lavene said.
"It's good to take a step back from studying and to regroup." he said.
Watson said he planned to get out of town for the break.
break.
"It's long enough that you can feel relaxed, but not long enough that you fall out of your routine," Watson said.
Some students will be spending the break in Lawrence. Jason Mayer, Wichita freshman and Oliver resident, said he had made plans for the fall break.
"We are throwing a big party and we are waiting for the Mizzou game coming up." Mayer said.
Justin Honah, Wichita freshman and Oliver resident, said he was spending the break in town and would party with Mayer. Honah said he also hoped to catch up on sleep.
"Hopefully we wont get too much homework over the break," Honah said.

SENATE FUNDING
Dear Editor,
Deal Luroi,
The KU Liberty Hawks, a student group representing the Libertarian Party, would like to respond to the recent article informing us that the KU College Republicans are trying to receive Student Senate funding.
Unlike the KU Young Democrats, we are firmly opposed to partisan political groups receiving funding, and we denounce the actions of the College Republicans.
Republican. The KU Liberty Hawks have taken a principled stand, and will not ask Student Senate for money. We do not believe it is right to make all students pay to support our group or any other group, especially not a partisan political group that will be using the funds to promote goals many are against.
This applies to other parties as well the Reform Party took matching federal funds, and the Green Party's campaign centered around receiving matching funds. Only the Libertarian Party has taken a principled stand of not forcing students to pay for us.
goons many times. This mirrors how political parties act at the national level. Republicans and Democrats both accept federal money for their conventions, for their exclusionary debates, and even for their campaigns. This unethical use of the taxpayers' money is taken for granted by the unprincipled politicians of these parties.
Stephen Duncan Lawrence junior Vice-President, KU Liberty Hawks

Clothesline Project sheds light on domestic violence problem
In a society where the victim is often blamed for crimes such as rape, sexual assault, domestic violence, and hate crimes, many survivors learn to stay silent. To help the community learn about and experience the stories of the victims and survivors of these violent crimes, Women's Transitional Care Services will be displaying The Clothesline Project during the month of October.
If a woman is date-raped, she is told she should have known better or that she could have somehow prevented the attack. If a woman in a straight relationship is abused by her partner, she is blamed for staying; if a woman in a queer relationship is being abused, it is suggested it is just "mutual" fighting.
However, if a man has his wallet stolen he is shown sympathy and compassion. He is not drilled with questions or comments on what he could have done to prevent it. Of course not
he is the victim, and he should not be made to feel ashamed, guilty, or dirty because he was victimized.
Sexualassault, rape, hate-crimes and domestic violence are unique crimes because the victims, not the perpetrators, are the ones blamed and the victims are encouraged to be silent. These crimes affect the victim's body, mind, spirit, and perception of safety in the world. Because these are "silent"

Commentary
To make the change toward a safer society, it is imperative that survivors have a chance to speak about their experiences and heal. It is necessary that we see and listen to their stories and break the silence surrounding these crimes.
crimes, it is easy for the general public not to think about it.
The Clothesline Project is a display consisting of colored shirts with personalized messages and drawings. The shirts are decorated by survivors of abuse in our community. The project was started in Hyannis, Massachusetts in 1990 through the Cape Cod Women's Agenda. The group decided to use a clothesline as a visual display, after discussing how many women have traditionally exchanged information over backyard fences while hanging laundry out to dry. The idea caught in on many communities, including Lawrence, where they decided to start their own "clothesline."
The Clothesline Project breaks the silence by giving a voice to survivors, a memorial for the victims, and by giving the community a chance to witness the effects of violence and abuse.
Carland is outreach coordinator for WTCS.
The Clothesline Project attempts to document the extent of violence against women and children, and the toll taken on their lives. Creating and hanging a shirt on the clothesline offers survivors an opportunity to leave behind some of their pain and move on to the next phase of their lives. For family and friends of victims who have died, designing a shirt offers a way to express their loss and demonstrate how their lives have been changed by violence.
In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Women's Transitional Care Services will display The Clothesline Project to honor victims and to raise our community's awareness about the reality and prevalence of these "silent" crimes. Violence feeds on silence, and by helping to break it we can come one step closer to living in a more accepting, peaceful community.
PERSPECTIVE
Feminists ignore half the problems
For some people, October means baseball. For others, it means Halloween. For me, it means an avalanche of sexism and questionable methodology. In fact, the first ominous pebbles began tumbling down Mt. Oread in the form of a hysterical column by Shay O'Brien about the "domestic violence epidemic."
According to this piece, the age group with the highest rates of abuse, women ages 16 to 24 experienced "rates of domestic victimization at 19.6 per 1000." In the general population of women, the rate is about "240 women every day." Pretty scary, huh?
But let's look at them again. In the group most likely to be abused, less than two percent of women encounter domestic violence. Moreover, assuming what the column reports is true, in the general population only about one-tenth of one percent of women ever encounter domestic violence. Not exactly an epidemic.

Commentary

But that's only the beginning. Given that abuse rates are 10 times higher for women age 16 to 24, it stands to reason that something is unique about the group. I would say it is their proximity to 16 to 24-year-old men. Given that young men are both disproportionately likely to commit violent crime and also more likely to hang around young women, I would say that the underlying cause of abuse isn't societal indifference. In fact, abuse is only symptomatic of a larger social problem: the plight of young men in our country.
Unfortunately, the womyn's movement is uninterested in helping young men. Thus, while you're sure to hear that women are far more likely to attempt suicide, you won't hear that men are far more likely to succeed. You won't hear that prostate cancer affects slightly more men than breast cancer does women. You won't hear that even though women aren't "natural" homemakers they are overwhelmingly given custody of the children in divorces.
You won't hear about all this because so-called Third Wave Feminists still adhere to Second Wave ideologies and tactics. This October, feminist activists will undoubtedly trot out the same old tired (and inaccurate) numbers about 1 in 4 women being raped and a 27 percent wage gap between the genders. Personal experience will continue to trump careful analysis in academic gender debates. And silly references will still be made about an invisible, oppressive patriarchy that selectively subjugates women to advance the interests of men.
However, in order to really make a difference in solving the problems it
identifies, feminism must move past gendered analysis. Disenfranchised young men, a phenomenal gap between the wages of workers and managers, and an underclass that goes without enough food, health care, and opportunity for advancement aren't gender-specific issues. Yet in our community there are those who select issues only on the basis of their effect on a single gender. In Women's Studies 201, I learned a label for this sort of selection criteria: sexist.
Unfortunately, this sexism is insidious because it is well-meaning. The exist activists are by and large good people who want to make our community better. But they fail to realize that unless the old models of single gender activism are rejected the only debate that can ensue will be the standard gender bickering that has occurred for the past 20 years.
I fearlessly predict that for the vast majority of Third Wave Feminists at KU this article will be filed in the "Robert Chamberlain is sexist and we don't like him" archive. However, I sincerely hope that a select few will read it and take it seriously. It is only through the efforts of these motivated post-feminist scholars that a broader new movement for social justice will coalesce. And it is this movement that offers the best hope for our abused women, our forgotten men, and our nation as a whole.

Student still at one with his fraternity
Sole member works to attract recruits to Iota Phi Theta
By J.R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
When Dion Jones decided to join a fraternity at the University of Kansas, he said he realized something was missing.
The St. Croix, Virgin Islands senior said he researched online possibilities for fraternities and found out about Iota Phi Theta Jones said he contacted representatives from the historically African-American fraternity and decided to create a chapter at KU in 1997.
"It just appealed to me," Jones said. "I thought it was a good idea to bring another organization to campus so students have more choices."
Jones, who is the only active member of the chapter, said forming the chapter was time-consuming. He said he traveled to the Nebraska and Missouri chapters to learn the process.
jones said he had volunteered with Big Brothers/Big Sisters, Boys and Girls Club and Jubilee Cafe.
"Once you join a fraternity, by whatever form, you are almost put into a mentor-type
role," Jones said. "Just going to school is not enough because there is so much you can do. It makes a big difference to give back to the community."
Jones said the recruitment process for other potential fraternity members was ongoing.
"We don't have a legacy like the other fraternities on campus, but I am not discouraged by that," Jones said. "I just got to keep out."
Jones said his fraternity also worked with the Iota Hearts. Erika Hanson, Malta, Mont., sophomore and Hearts member said the group provided support for the fraternity but was not an actual sorority.
"Anything he does, I do," Hanson said. "We're pretty equal."
For more information about Iota Phi Theta, contact Jones at jonedi@ncs.com or visit www.geocities.com/kuiota.
Hanson said she got involved with the Hearts because she didn't want to join a traditional sorority. She said she was the only active Heart.

Students picking up on newspaper readership program
Increase in newspapers left on campus creates burden on recycling
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
The interest in the two-month old Student Newspaper Readership Program remains high among students news that Student Senate is encouraged to hear.
Branden Bell, a member of the Student Newspaper Readership Program committee, said the only problem had
been an increase in newspaper litter and more newspapers to be recycled.
"Aside from the recycling concerns, I haven't heard anything bad about the program," Bell said.
Bell, a holdover senator, said the committee had done no official studies to gauge the student response to the program.
However, he said students were participating in the program, based on the lack of newspapers he saw in the boxes.
Joel Goldstetsky, Minneapolis, Mi.. junior, picked up a copy of USA Today from the readership box in front of Wescoe Hall yesterday.
He said he got a newspaper three or four times a week, and he tried to get his copy early.
"They're usually empty at the end of the day," Goldetsky said of the newspaper boxes.
Anne Coemen, Omaha, Neb. freshman, said she picked up a newspaper every other day.
She said having the newspapers was helpful to students and that without the readership program, she probably wouldn't be reading newspapers.
Katie Bartlett, a member of the readership program committee, said the committee would meet Oct. 17 to discuss ways to further publicize the readership program.

Mayor asks City Commission to liven up city streets
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Mayor Mike Rundle asked the Director of Public Works, George Williams, to find a way to prolong the lives of Lawrence streets last night.
Rundle asked Williams to look into "spending as much money as possible to expand the lives of our streets."
Williams addressed the City Commission, proposing a preventative maintenance plan. Such a plan would allow the city to repair damaged streets as usual.
But it would also allow the city to repair more potholes and cracks in other streets, thereby extending their lives and preventing constant repaving.
Street lives may be extended up to five years, instead of two or three, with a preventive maintenance plan, Rundle said.
But preventative maintenance takes money, money that the city doesn't have in this year's budget.
"It's a matter of robbing Peter to pay Paul." Williams said. "Something would have to take a back seat to put that into effect."
He said enacting a preventative maintenance plan would require the city to hire a full-time engineer to track the condition of every street in the city and determine which streets needed
City Manager Mike Wildgen said most of the money would be needed for staff positions.
repair.
"You can't send out a civil-engineering intern to make those kind of assessments." Wildgen told the Commission.
Rundle said his main concern was catching up with road maintenance to provide Lawrence citizens the best possible roads.
Amanda Blue, Olathe senior, said she would like to see more roads repaired. Blue, who lives near Mary's Lake, travels on 23rd Street several times a day.
Wildgen said the city would look at preventative maintenance plans in other cities and present a report to the
She said the road was often in poor condition, and that she often had to swerve to miss the potholes big enough to "swallow my tire."
Commission at a later date.
In other Commission news, Wildgen told the Commissioners that the city's new parking garage, 933 New Hampshire St., would open this weekend.
"The list of things to do is very short," he said. "We hope to have the garage open by the weekend. It could be Friday; it could be Thursday."
Two lanes of New Hampshire Street also will open at the same time.
The parking garage is part of the Downtown 2000 project that also includes a new Lawrence Arts Center, office space and a possible hotel.

Resumé doctors seeing patients until tomorrow

Ten students signed in and talked with advisers about their resumes in the first hour yesterday.
Staff members of the University of Kansas Career and Employment Services office began evaluating students' resumes yesterday
Others stopped by and took pamphlets on academic path tips, cover letter and reference list ideas, and lists of action verbs.
Resumé doctors will be at the Union today and tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Bonnie Sheriff, Lawrence junior, said she was working toward a degree in chemistry and wanted to go to graduate school and teach at the university level.
Sheriff said she hadn't planned on visiting the resumé doctors, but happened to have her resumé as she walked through the Union.
She said she thought her resumé was in pretty good shape.
in pretty good shape.
"It was a bit long, and it still is," Sheriff said. "There were some visual issues that he helped me with."
Kent McAnally, assistant director of Career and Employment Services and the resumé doctor on call yesterday morning, said his office accepted drop-in appointments three days a week to discuss students' resumes. Having the booth in the Union was a good way to meet students away from his office, McAnally said.
McMahay said she also received information on how to convert her curriculum vita, which is a complete history of academic and professional work, into a resume.
"I present research all the time at meetings," she said. "That's the first thing other people ask for from other universities and the industry."
Sheriff said if resumés didn't look good, employers wouldn't call.
McAnally said he rarely saw a resume for which he didn't have some suggestions.
He said he wanted to see how students described their academic and professional experiences. He said students should be aware of the "nuts and bolts" of their resumes.
He said employers do not have much of time to read resumés, so they should be as concise and attractive as possible.
"One of the things we like to say is 'A resume doesn't get you a job. A resume will get you an interview,'" he said.
"The interview is really where the candidate will sell himself or herself to the employer. The resume is the ticket to the interview."

Afghanistan feels wrath
KABUL, Afghanistan — In the rubble of what had been an unassuming two-story building on Kabul's outskirts, Mohammed Afzl wept yesterday for his brother — one of the first four confirmed civilian casualties of the U.S.-led air war against the Taliban and Osama bin Laden.
The Associated Press
"My brother is buried under there," he said, watching bulldozers clear the remains of the offices of a U.N.-funded mine-clearing agency where the victims worked as guards.
The building in a quiet district
of vegetable fields on the edge of the capital was less than 400 yards away from anti-airmacraft batteries and a communication tower struck in U.S. raids Monday night. In Washington, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said it was not clear whether the building was hit by a U.S. missile or by anti-aircraft fire.
"What can we do?" Afzl said, still crying as he recounted how he had begged his brother to spend the night with family instead of guarding the empty building. "Our lives are ruined."
Last night, American war
planes were back in the skies, pounding areas around the Taliban headquarters of Kandahar for the second time in 12 hours and the northwestern city of Herat. Planes screeched over the capital, sparking thunderous anti-aircraft fire and sending residents huddling back into whatever shelter they could find.
ever shelter they could ever sit in the dark, watching the sky, waiting to die," said vegetable vendor Jamal Uddin, shutting down his shop as the lights went out last night.
Terrorists respond to attacks
The Associated Press
CAIRO, Egypt — Osama bin Laden's spokesman yesterday called for a holy war against United States' interests everywhere and praised the hijackers who flew planes into the World Trade Center and Pentagon for their "good deed."
"America must know that the storm of airplanes will not stop, and there are thousands of young people who look forward to death like the Americans look forward to life." Sulaiman Abu Ghaith said.
The message from Abu Ghaith was the second statement from al-Qaida since the launch of U.S.led airstrikes against Afghanistan on Sunday.
Abu Ghaith, who addressed his message "to the entire Islamic nation," said that President Bush had launched a "crusade" against Afghanistan with the launch of strikes and Muslims worldwide must respond.
Jihad, or holy war, "is a duty of every Muslim if they haven't got an excuse," he said in the videotaped statement broadcast on the
Arab television news station Al Jazeera.
He praised the Sept. 11 attacks on New York and Washington, saying the hijackers "did something good" and took the battle to the heart of America.
the idea that the Americans have opened a door that will never be closed," Abu Ghaith said of the continuing air raids on Afghanistan. "America must know that the battle will not leave its land until America leaves our land; until it stops supporting Israel; until it stops the blockade against Iraq."
Job, revenue loss abundant in NY

NEW YORK — Mayor Rudolph Giuliani ordered a 15 percent cut in spending by city departments yesterday, predicting the World Trade Center attack will cost $1 billion in revenue this fiscal year and 100,000 jobs

Separately, Gov. George Pataki said it would take $54 billion in federal money for New York to recover. He said New York is requesting $34 billion to rebuild lower Manhattan and $20 billion to reinvigorate New
In secondary Giuliani spared only the police and fire departments and school system from double-digit budget cuts. Those departments face a 2.5 percent cutback. A citywide hiring freeze went into effect after the Sept. 11 attack, he said.
"There's no question our budget problems are real and substantial, but they are significantly less than the problems we've already encountered and overcome," said Giuliani, referring to the fiscal crisis of the 1970s.
Congress has already approved $20 billion to help New York rebuild and recover, and the city has a $550 million reserve.
"People who bet against New York have always lost," Pataki said. "We're going to come through this."
The mayor, who leaves office at the end of December, offered some advice to his eventual successor: Do not raise taxes.
"It would be a dumb, stupid, idiotic and moronic thing to do," he said.

What's News- In Business and Finance
Attacks Shatter Employment Picture
Beyond the obvious economic damage of Sept. 11—the stock-market plunge, sputtering airlines and the heightened risk of recession—lurks another threat; an end to a golden era of low unemployment
From 1997 through 2000, the economy expanded at a $4% annual pace, well above the $2% to $3% rate most economists had considered the country's speed limit. Faster growth meant factories produced more, stores sold more, and companies of all kinds needed more workers than in any other recent period in U.S. history.
All of those positives now are threatened. Even before Sept. 11, demand for workers was falling. Since the attack, the labor market has deteriorated sharply, especially in industries such as travel and tourism, which have been among the biggest sources of entry-level jobs in recent years. For some workers, full-time jobs are eroding into part-time posts.
Meanwhile, many people who are laid off are finding it hard to obtain state unemployment insurance. States often require workers to have held a job for a certain length of time and peg insurance payments to income level.
Bush, Democrats Spar Over Economy
President Bush and Democrats tangled over an economic-stimulus package.
Administration officials told congressional leaders that Mr. Bush wants the bulk of his proposed $60 billion to $75 billion package to go toward tax cuts. The rest would go to spending—much of it earmarked for a package of unemployment and health-care benefits for jobless workers.
Democratic leaders generally are comfortable with the size of the White House proposal but want to spend much more of it on worker benefits. Many Democrats also favor massive spending on bridges, road and other infrastructure, rather than tax cuts, to stimulate the economy.
Airlines Make a Play For Leisure Travelers
The nation's big airlines slashed airfares for leisure travel, a few days after most airlines lowered their business tariffs to try to jumpstart business after the terrorist attacks.
Delta Air Lines led the charge, offering a sale on tickets purchased through Monday for domestic travel through Dec. 15. Overseas trips must be completed in March, April or May. Numerous other big carriers, such as United, American and Continental, offered similar deals.
Even before Sept. 11, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was seen as a can-t-miss holiday blockbuster. Now, young Harry is swooping down at just the right moment for Warner Bros. Pictures.
Warner and Disney Hope for Magic
Warren Bros. and the studio has suffered through a string of disappointments this year, including the recent films "Rock Star" and "American Outlaws." The movie studio that made household names out of Dirty Harry, Batman and Bugs Bunny hasn't produced a blockbuster since "The Perfect Storm" in 1999. Where once its reputation was staked on big movies with big stars, Warner Bros.' greatest success so far this year, "Cats & Dogs," featured a cast of no-name felines and canines.
Meanwhile, Walt Disney Co. chairman and chief executive Michael Eisner has been on an aggressive campaign to reassure investors and the public that everything will be all right at Disney. The lack of a recent hit film—and worries about its theme parks in the wake of terrorist attacks—had increased worries about the company's prospects.

problem.
Critics faulted Mr. Elsner for not rushing Disney into acquisitions of Internet or cable companies, as competitors did. Now, Mr. Elsner says, his caution will pay off. Companywide cost-cutting, begun well before the economy went soft last year, will prove Disney prescient, he says, and leave the company poised to "go through the roof" when better economic conditions return. He says he is bullish on the company's entertainment creations and its ability to exploit them. Top of the list is "Monsters Inc.", a computer-animated coproduction with Pixar that is expected to be a big hit in November.
Government Sites Yank Sensitive Data
Government agencies—and even some private entities—have been removing from their Web sites information they fear could help terrorists plot attacks.
The Environmental Protection Agency, concerned about attacks involving chemicals, stripped its Web site of information about the nation's chemicals plants and what companies would do if chemicals escaped. The Defense Department took down its Central Command Web site regarding Middle East and Asian affairs and its Special Operations Command, because it was hacked into this week. The sites contained such items as news releases, speeches and biographies of leaders in the command.
Home Offices Get New Lease on Life
Just stay home.
That's the feeling of some workers nervous about going into the office because of the Sept. 11 attacks and the possibility of further terrorist strikes. Across the nation, more people are requesting to work from home, companies and consultants say, wanting to avoid buildings that could be potential targets and to stay closer to their families at a time of heightened anxiety. At the same time, companies are thinking about giving more employees remote computer connections to ensure they can work even if buildings become inaccessible.

Earlier Bargains
Immediately after Sept. 11, fullprice retailers such as Neiman Marcus Group Inc., Saks Inc. and Federated Department Stores Inc. experienced a sharp drop in sales, especially in their Manhattan stores. About two weeks ago, Neiman's Bergdorf Goodman unit canceled its remaining fall orders. Retailers are concerned that if companies continue slashing jobs and the economy worsens, sales will slow further, inventories will bulge and profits will disappear.
$103.59 from Many retailers already were reducing inventories before the Sept. 11 attacks, anticipating slower sales. But now, in the uncertain aftermath of the terrorist attacks, nervous full-price retailers are canceling orders or postponing new shipments, leaving discounters with their pick of in-season merchandise.

The retailers' predicament is good news for shoppers, who are likely to find bargains earlier in the Christmas season, often on items that aren't normally discounted. But for full-price chains, such as Federated's Macy's and May Department Stores Co.'s Foley's, the discounting could herald a return to the price
WSJ.com College Journal
The big discount stores are benefiting, too. Tom Grimm, chief executive of Sam's Club, a unit of Walmart Stores Inc., told analysts the slowing economy has helped his buyers get access to more brand-name merchandise and in larger quantities.
Jan LaDie, a 46-year-old career-development official at the business school at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, says she has become a more cautious consumer as the economy has slowed. Recently, she shopped for the first time at Syms and found a pair of Brothers brood wool trousers for $39.99. Now she's thinking of sending her college-age son and husband in to buy suits. "I expect that stores are going to have to discount items to attract the consumer," she says.
Shoppers are pouncing. At a Dallas-area Burlington Coat Factory, Shirley Brooks, a retired nurse, was hunting for bedding and housewares. "I bought a Jones New York red suit with sequins on the bottom for Christmas," she says. "It cost $69, half of what it would have cost me at a department store.

Burlington Coat Factory Warehouse Corp., a Burlington, N.J., discounter with 302 stores, says it has seen an increase of about 30% in offers from vendors selling goods. Prices are more negotiable, too. "There will be bigger breaks in the future," Chairman Monroe Milstein predicts.
Nordstrom announced an unprecedented 10-day fall sale starting in late September, discounting certain items by $33% to $60% - the first time it has held a major sale outside the three it schedules each year since it began selling apparel in 1963.
"It'll be the most promotional Christmas ever," predicts Britt Beemer, founder and chairman of America's Research Group, a Charleston, S.C., company that specializes in retail. In the recession of the early 1990s, most retailers waited until the first weekend in December to start whacking prices. This year, Mr. Beemer recommends that retailers start slashing prices on Thanksgiving weekend.
"We're getting calls from people I never heard of, before offering us good deals," says Patrick Byrne, chief executive of Overstock.com. For example, he has snapped up thousands of Citizen watches. "I don't think we would have been able to buy them at all before the attacks," says Mr. Byrne. "The distributor got nervous sitting on inventory."
For a manufacturer, retailers' discounts may salvage some sales, but the brand can be tarnished. The Web site Overstock.com, for example, recently bought some high-end watches from a distributor facing cancellations. The Web site listed a Movado men's watch, the "Esper"
anza," for $585.99, saying it normally sells for $975—a savings of $389.01.
Rick Cote, Movado Group Inc.'s chief operating officer, says he doesn't know how the watches ended up on Overstock.com but isn't happy about it. "It's not in our interest to have our product appear cheapened," he says, adding he wonders if they are counterfeiters. They aren't, the Web site counters.

The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, says Morpheus is picking up when Napster Inc., now shut down while it refashioned itself as a legal operation, left off. But unlike Napster, whose operations were curbed by the music industry's court action, Morpheus bills itself as a decentralized, or "peer to peer," system with no central computer, but instead, a constantly changing collection of personal computers belonging to the people logged on to the service at any one time.

Record Labels Sue Web Site Sharing Files
The entertainment industry has opened a new chapter in its fight against online piracy by filing a lawsuit against a popular Web file-sharing system called Morpheus.
In their lawsuit, though, record labels and Hollywood studios represented by the Recording Industry Association of America and the Motion Picture Association of America say that Morpheus indeed uses central-server computers for such tasks as keeping track of who is online. Those central machines, says a spokesman for the record-industry group, "make the system more efficient."
the system.
Use of Morpheus has exploded in recent months. According to Webnize, a Cambridge, Mass., research outfit, nearly a million people at a time were using Morpheus last month—nearly double the number from August—and they downloaded more than 1.5 billion files, both music and full-length movies.
The lawsuit names MusicCity.com Inc. and MusicCity Networks, which operate Morpheus, along with several smaller companies. The companies didn't return calls seeking comment.
While the record industry was largely successful in going after Napster, legal observers say it will have a tougher time in taking on Morpheus and other "peer to peer" systems. While Napster's founders made it clear in internal communications during the service's early days that the purpose of the software was to exchange music, the creators of most peer-to-peer systems have been careful to describe their software as general technology capable of exchanging all manner of files, including many legal ones.
peer-to-peer file systems also are likely to claim in court that they have "substantial noninringing" uses, which under a U.S. Supreme Court doctrine, could give them the kind of legal protection Napster lacked.

Two warriors strap themselves into one of the most deadly war machines the United States has ever produced. Invisible to its enemies, it begins a 24-hour mission to defend freedom.

After traveling more than 10 hours, the B2 Bomber, also known as the Stealth Bomber, reaches its target. The wrath of U.S. military power is unleashed, and what was once a terrorist-harboring camp, or enemy weaponry, is now burning ash.
On Sunday, American forces began what President Bush has said would be a long struggle against terrorism. The precision strikes delivered by Air Force and Navy pilots are only the first stage of a carefully planned military operation, said Colonel Kevin McNellis, Commander of Air Force ROTC at the University of Kansas.
Operating cost: $50 million
Seats of flight deck: 4,47 seats
Regardless of the role unconventional warfare will play, the United States has built a formidable force to assist in strikes against Afghanistan. So far, this armada includes four Carriers: the USS Carl Vinson, the USS Enterprise, the USS Theodore Roosevelt and the USS Kitty Hawk.
All of these Carriers bring thousands of personnel with them and support ships that include cruisers, destroyers and attack submarines. This overwhelming show of force is intentionally dramatic, McNellis said.
"The difficulty is that Afghanistan is controlled by a government that's barely legitimate and they don't really worry about things like roads or buildings," Cooper said. "They operate through terror, such as public executions. The populace there is already repressed and terrorized so if you kill innocent civilians by using conventional tactics, you will just create more martyrs."
"There are two main phases to such an operation," he said. "The first phase is to gather intelligence. The second phase involves an obvious part and a covert part. The obvious part is for political coercion."
McNellis said the conventional methods of waging a war would have to be rethought.
"The basics of war is to put many against few," McNellis said. "However, if you look at (Afghanistan's) line up, they don't have much. So it does us no good to just build up a force of a million soldiers."
Nuclear-powered aircraft carrier
Supports attacks submarines, cruisers, destroyers
He said the job of the military was to present options to the President and Secretary of Defense. In Afghanistan's case, conventional tactics do not seem to be a productive option. This is in part because the Taliban does not operate on the same level as the United States.
Captain James Cooper, Commander of Navy ROTC at KU, also said that controlled surgical strikes against terrorists was probably the most effective tactic at this stage of the war. Future operations using more precision-guided munitions and Special Forces seem imminent, according to Cooper.
Because of the difficult terrain and few fixed targets, a total land invasion of Afghanistan would not yield the kind of results that military planners seek. However, any targets that may present a threat to American forces are being eliminated using the methods most Americans have seen in previous wars, such as bombing the enemy's radar defenses and offensive capabilities.
"It's called decapitation. You take out the eyes and ears of enemy leaders." McNellis said. "However, you also want to tell civilians how they can stay safe. I don't think people realize that America has a strong fist, but we abide by the laws of armed conflict. We try to spare schools or mosques."
America's ability to hit the right targets will rely heavily on intelligence not only from its own agencies, but others around the world
One new technology uses unmanned aircraft, like the RQ-1
Predator, that can fly surveillance missions over enemy territory. These drones can operate for up to 24 hours and send back both still images and live video to U.S. intelligence officers without risking the loss of American lives.
The fight against terrorism will not be one that can be fought using technology alone.
Once fixed targets are destroyed, McNellis said the military would begin to target mobile

enemy forces, which would require American soldiers on the ground.
Cruise Missiles and other precision guided munitions are useful but, McNellis said, winning the war will require more hands-on involvement.
"Hitting moving targets requires real-time intelligence. You can't send intelligence back to the Pentagon and analyze it for a week," McNellis said. "It has to be an immediate pursuit. We can't fight the entire war like a video game. Eventually, it'll be like a knife fight."
The deciding factor in this new struggle will not be U.S. technology, but the people who are in control of sophisticated U.S. weapons, McNellis said.
"We have better people, better leadership and better training and that's why (our military) is effective," he said. "We'll throw our men into battle, but we're going to do it the right way to minimize loss of life."
McNellis also stressed that the war against terrorism could not be won by the military alone. Citizens, he said, should feel just as much a responsibility to end terror in the world.
"We've taken our freedom for granted," McNellis said. "We were born into freedom because of other people."
Attorney General John Ashcroft is pushing for Congress to pass legislation that would allow the government to use more unrestricted surveillance within its own borders and abroad. These measures to some may represent the loss of civil liberties, but McNellis said he thought citizens needed to ask themselves what their safety was worth.
"What are we willing to forgo today?" he said. "Instead of thinking locally, maybe we should divert dollars elsewhere. People need to take responsibility and report suspicious activity. Everyone needs to think of this as our war. It's not just a military problem."

Commentary
Michael Rigg Columnist sportsokansan.com
D. W.
Today's trial could dictate rest of season
Every team has one of these players. Kansas, on the other hand, has two.
Two players who are enormously gifted at football. Two players who also can't help getting in trouble.
can't help getting excited
Kansas football team practices typically start at 3 p.m. At that time this afternoon, Reggie Duncan and Mario Kinsey are due in Douglas County District Court.
While the rest of their teammates strap on their helmets and hit the practice field this afternoon, the sophomore running back and the freshman quarterback are scheduled to be playing in their biggest game of the season. It's the state of Kansas v. Kinsey and Duncan, and who wins may dictate the way this football season plays out.
Both players are scheduled to appear before the court today to defend themselves against misdemeanor counts of theft and unlawful use of a credit card.
Kansas football coach Terry Allen has refused to discuss the matter at any length this season. But even the embattled coach knows that the troubled duo is the key to his professional future.
Have any two players ever been so good on the field, yet so bad off of it?
The biggest game of the season will take place today at the corner of 11th and Massachusetts streets, not this Saturday at Memorial Stadium. If the two somehow get out of the charges, then all is once again good in Jayhawk country. But if they are convicted, Allen should heavily consider booting one or both of them off of the team. Allen has been too giving in his five years, and he must debate taking a stand for what is right at the expense of a few victories.
Both Kinsey and Duncan are talented football players, by anyone's account.
On Saturday, Duncan recorded the eighth-best rushing mark in school history when he piled up 227 yards in a huge double-overtime game against Texas Tech. Kinsey, meanwhile, did nothing less than lead the Jayhawks back from an 11-point deficit with less than five minutes remaining in the game.
But they haven't been talented citizens — in fact, the duo has been a disaster. Last fall, Duncan was charged with retail theft of less than $500 in Lawrence. On May 25, Kinsey was hauled in for possession of marijuana in his home town of Waco, Texas. Three weeks later, a report was filed with the KU Public Safety Office stating that a student's purse had been stolen in front of Bailey Hall. The student later pressed the charges that the two players face today.
Also, Kinsey, who was named the starting quarterback two weeks ago, was benched at the start of Saturday's game against Texas Tech for breaking team rules.
Kinsey's rap sheet is growing long enough to give a black eye to the program. Already, the Internet message boards and national media are having a field day with the duo. Heck, irresistibly annoying syndicated sports radio commentator Jim Rome even dedicated a segment on his show to the two roommates' struggles.
All this came after Allen had already been branded as a soft coach who didn't install enough discipline in his team. A second chance for Kinsey evolved into third and fourth chances. Allen won't be able to hand out very many more without losing his team's respect.
Needless to say, Allen is assuredly hoping for a courtroom victory for his players today.
A loss may mean he would have to make the toughest choice of his career.

The Jayhawks will be looking to win their first game against Nebraska since 1998, when Kansas won the third game of the match in Lincoln.
Senior setter Molly LaMere said the Nebraska environment was intimidating to some, but familiar to her.
"It'll be loud to where timeliness and the tone of the communication will be
"For me, I love to go there and play," LaMere said. "Ever since I was little I was watching games there. I just love the facility and their fans are really supportive regardless of which team you are on. They just love to see good volleyball."
Nebraska is led by senior outside hitter Nancy Metcalf. Metcalf, a preseason All-Big 12 selection, is third in the conference with an average of 4.36 kills per game. Junior middle blocker Amber Holmquist is the league's best hitter with a 48.7 percent attack efficiency. Holmquist's 1.83 blocks per game is second in the Big 12.
As a team, the Cornhuskers lead the Big 12 with a 30.7 percent hitting efficiency, a 10.3 percent opponent hitting efficiency and an average of 4.27 blocks per game.

Kansas was down 2-1 to North Texas midway through the second half, and the Jayhawks desperately needed a goal to tie the score in Kansas' opener on Aug. 31.
Schroeder saw Hoogveld open, and dished the ball to her fellow senior. Hoogveld recognized her chance, and sent a powerful kick past North Texas goalkeeper Monica Housden.
Natalie Hoogveld waited at the top of the penalty box while forward Melanie Schroeder dribbled toward goal from the left side.
It was a tie game — time to celebrate.
Hoogveld held nothing back. Teammates were hoping to congratulate her, but Hoogveld took off on a dead sprint in the opposite direction. After a 30-yard dash that might have broken records, she stopped to dazzle the crowd with a midfield handspring. The form wasn't perfect, but no one seemed to care. Hoogveld's goal seemed to take the wind out of North Texas' sails, and Kansas cruised to a 4-2 victory.

Hogweld has 14 career goals in her four-year stint as a Jayhawk. No one in Kansas history has scored more. She earned Big 12 player of the week honors as a sophomore in October of 1999 after scoring three goals in two big conference games.

Men's golf team finishes fifth at Missouri tournament
By John Domoney
Kansan sportswriter
As the Kansas men's golf team returned last night from the Purina Classic in St. Charles, Mo., it wasn't exactly satisfied with its fifth place finish.
But the team believes it's a start in the right direction and that it's building momentum for the spring schedule.
For coach Ross Randall, the play of his team conjured positive feelings about the future, but he knows his Jayhawks can and must play better.
"We played steady but not too good."
he said. "We did make some mistakes but had a great round Monday."
But Randall was impressed with several performances he witnessed.
Junior Chris Marshall and sophomore Tyrle Hall tied for 10th place with scores of 215 after Marshall fired a final round 72 along with Hall's closing 74.
Senior Travis Hurst continued his consistent play as he shot a 74 and finish in a tie for 18th place. Hurst's finish was his second consecutive top 20 finish this fall. Equally impressive for Kansas were redshirt freshman Andrew

Kansas women's golf team hits high numbers in wind
By John Domoney Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas women's golf team saw its scores raised along with the rest of the field, but the Jayhawks were able to hold firm and finish in 16th place out of the 19-team field. Kansas was in 16th place after Monday's opening two rounds.
Yesterday's third round of the Women's Collegiate Shootout in Franklin, Ind., featured wind and more wind as the scores of the players and teams ballooned much higher than those of the previous two rounds on Monday.
The Jayhawks managed to hold onto 16th place even though they shot a combined 321 yesterday after rounds of 307 and 311 in Monday's opening rounds.
For coach Nicole Hollingsworth, her team's play was encouraging, especially after the damage done by the winds around The Legends of Indiana Golf Course.
"I thought we played well," Hollingsworth said. "To shoot a 307 and a 311 on Monday was the best we've shot all fall. Today we shot a 321 because the wind got blowing

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 10). As you're exploring and learning this year, and falling in love (which will be effortless), remember the rules. That will become more difficult, but it's all part of this year's life lesson. The mental and physical impulse is to run wild and free. The instructions are to stay on the
course that's been mapped. Do the latter, and the rewards will multiply exponentially.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 6. A co-worker's benefit is helpful, and it could help you get a raise. Yet someone you know and love could make a silly mistake, so don't trust blindly or fail to listen out of prejudice. Your best adviser could be a lowly servant.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is an 8.
Don't believe everything you hear. People are mixing up messages, forwarding false gossip and making all kinds of mistakes. You always choose your words carefully, and that gives you an advantage. If you don't hold people to promises they make now, they'll love you even more.
Gemini (May 21- June 21). Today is a 6.
You're a good talker. Now, prove you
can be a good listener, too. Somebody
you love needs to vent. Save your
advice until it's requested. What's really
needed is your ear, and maybe your
shoulder to cry on.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 7.
You're a little more confident, a little
more bold. Has somebody been trying to
talk you into something you don't want to
do? Have you been tactfully changing
the subject? Why? Substitute is lost on
some people. Come right out and say it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 6. Mis- understandings, miscommunications and typographical errors are plantiful. Check everything at least twice — incoming and outgoing. Don't take it for granted that people understand what you're talking about. Quiz them.
9
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 6.
You'd like to help. That's your nature.
You're always eager to serve. But tough love is what's needed now. Don't bail out a friend who needs to bail out herself.
That will be better for her, and for you.
P
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct.22) Today is #7. The direct approach is not advised. Not that you need to be sneaky, just be diplomatic. When somebody tells you they don't want to talk about something, they mean it. Don't insist. You'll hear about it soon enough.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 7.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 6. Don't spread a rumor you hear from a friend. The odds are good that it contains more speculation than fact. Messages have a tendency to get garbled now, especially if they involve emotional topics.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan.19). Today is a 6. A few disagreements that were floating just beneath the surface may pop up. This is good, because it means they can be dealt with rather than ignored. Your work will go more smoothly as a result. Help clear up a misunderstanding.

'Royal'adjustments made to staff
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Bench coach Jamie Quirk was released and first base coach Frank White was reassigned yesterday in a shake-up of the Royals' coaching staff.
The Associated Press
Quirk, who played for the Royals in the 1970s and '80s, had been a coach for the past eight seasons.
White, a five-time All-Star second baseman, spent his entire 18-year playing career with the Royals and in 1985 became the first second baseman since Jackie Robinson to bat cleanup in the World Series. A Kansas City native, he has always been one of the city's most popular athletes.
The Royals said White would become a special assistant to general manager Allard Baird. His new duties will include scouting and evaluating players, and working on the business side of the baseball operations staff.
"This is an exciting promotion for Frank," Baird said in a statement. "Frank has had a desire to come into the front office for some time. His presence on the field will be difficult to replace. However, his major league experience as a player and a coach, along with his time managing in the minor league level, will be a great addition to our staff."
In his 18 years, he won eight Gold Gloves.
Replacements for White and Quirk have not been named. The Royals said the other members of Tony Muser's staff — pitching coach Al Nipper, batting coach Lamar Johnson, third base coach Rich Dauer and bullpen coach Tom Gamboa — had all been invited to return.
"I'm excited to have input in the player development side of the game and teach our young players the 'Royal Way' of baseball," White said. "I've enjoyed my time as a coach. But when this opportunity came, I felt it was a position where I could most benefit the organization."
Chiefs will miss Richardson
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Key starters Derrick Alexander, Tony Richardson and Dante Hall will probably be out Sunday when Kansas City plays host to Pittsburgh.
The loss of Alexander, last year's team MVP and the Chiefs' only experienced wide receiver, will send the Chiefs (1-3) into the weekend dangerously short at the position.
Sylvester Morris, last year's No. 1 draft pick, has been out all year with a knee injury and Marvin "Snoop" Minnis, this year's top pick, has been inconsistent as a rookie.
Inconsistency at wide receiver has been cited by head coach Dick Vermeil as the top reason for quarterback Trent Green's problems. Green threw four interceptions last week in Denver.
"It really makes us thin at wide receiver," said Vermeil. "We count on Hall as one of our four wide receivers but now we can't do that."
Alexander, who has been slowed all season with a sore Achilles' tendon, developed back spasms during pregame warmups last week before the Chiefs' loss at
Denver. Although he still played, Vermeil said he "couldn't bend over and tie his shoelaces" on Monday.
Fullback Richardson, the Chiefs' most consistent performer on offense, also missed last week's game with a shoulder injury. Hall, a wide receiver/kick returner, has a "deep contusion" on a shoulder that has already undergone surgery.
The only healthy wide receivers left are Minnis, Chris Thomas and Larry Parker. Alternate tight end Mikhael Ricks will probably be used in the position.
"It would take drastic change to all of a sudden have Tony Richardson back." Vermeil said. "I think it's a better chance of having him a week from this weekend."
The Chiefs will be reduced to using defensive backs as wide receivers during practice. But Vermeil said he did not anticipate bringing in another wide receiver
"The problem with bringing guys in is you have to let somebody else go. Who? If guys are injured and go on injured reserve, they create their own roster vacancy," Vermil said. "But who do you want to sacrifice? It's not an easy thing to do.
"Then if you do bring somebody in, will he suit up on Sunday? When you bring them on the roster and he can't automatically line up and play this weekend because he doesn't know the scheme, that really hurts you."
One possibility would be Derrick Mays. Signed to a free-agent contract last spring, the former Seattle starter was released after training camp.
"We've talked to Mays in the past about being in shape and being available," Vermeil said. "He would be a logical guy because of his knowledge of our scheme. But who would we let go?"
Vermeil said Parker would probably return punts but rookie running back Derrick Blaylock could be activated. Reserve running back Mike Cloud was expected to return kickoffs.
Richardson's loss is felt throughout the offense.
"Tony Richardson might be the best player at his position in the league," Vermeil said. "We miss his leadership. We miss his running. We miss his blocking. It's not easy to just plug somebody in."
Rams go 4-0 for third straight year
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Right now, the NFLs lone unbeaten team looks like it'll never lose.
The St. Louis Rams are 4-0 for the third straight year after their 35-0 victory Monday night over the Detroit Lions. Points have never been a problem since Mike Martz came to town three years ago as offensive coordinator, but the defense also stepped up with its first shutout since the Rams moved to St. Louis in 1995.
"It's going to be tough to beat us if we continue to play like this," quarterback Kurt Warner said. "We're playing as well the last two weeks as we've played anytime since I've been here, in all facets of the game."

coming to St. Louis.
Martz wants more, more, more.
"We can play so much better on both sides of the ball," Martz said. "We can get better and we will get better."
Martz wants more, more, more.
After viewing the game tape on Monday, he was far from satisfied.
That could spell bad news for future opponents, starting Sunday
On defense, he nitpicked at breakdowns in discipline — they were overcome by hustle, however—and at some missed tackles.
On offense, the Rams were sloppy in the early going. Faulk fumbled for the first time since 1999 and ended a scoring threat, and Isaac Bruce fumbled and dropped a pass. Warner misfired on a fourth-and-2 pass to Ricky Proehl.
Martz's wireless hookup to backup quarterback Jamie Martin, who relayed the plays to Warner, was cutting in and out in the first half. The Rams switched to a model with a cord and had no problems the rest of the way.

Warner's broken finger derailed them. The fewest points the defense allowed in that opening stretch was 20.
this year, it's more of an equal partnership. New defensive coordinator Lovie Smith quickly got a unit that included eight new starters up to speed. Philadelphia was held to 17 points in the opening overtime victory, and Miami got only 10 last week.
They handed the Lions their first shutout since 1993, and also contributed to the scoring when Dre' Bly returned Ty Detmer's pass 93 yards for a third-quarter touchdown.
In the first four games, the defense has produced an NFCbest 11 turnovers.
"It gives you that sense or feeling that everybody has everybody's back," running back Marshall Faulk said. "We have that togetherness, and it's special."

Scuffle for Bonds' 73rd homer may lead to criminal charges
SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds hit it and Alex Popov may have caught it, but Patrick Hayasi emerged from a scrum of Giants fans to become the happy owner of the ball the San Francisco slugger launched Sunday for his 73rd homer.
Hayashi was grinning at the time, but he's tight-lipped now about what he'll do with the ball, valued at perhaps $1 million.

Instead, Popov's doing the talking.
"I am just savoring the moment," Hayashi, 36, said in an e-mail that has served as his only public comment.

Now the catcher on the fly is brandishing a videotape and a lawyer, saying that if Hayashi doesn't give back the ball he will seek criminal charges.

BASKETBALL Denver Nuggets'leading scorer may miss up to three months
DENVER — Antonio McDyess, the Denver Nuggets' leading scorer the last two seasons, is scheduled to have knee surgery Friday that could sideline him for three months.
McDyess has not practiced since Thursday because of patella tendinitis in his left knee. An MRI showed he has a partial tear of his patella tendon and a mild sprain of the medial collateral ligament.
McDyess, an All-Star forward who averaged 20.8 points and 12.1 rebounds last season, missed 10 games late in the season with a partially dislocated left kneecap.
The 6-foot-9 forward, a member of the gold-medal winning U.S. Olympic team, made his first All-Star appearance last season.
The Nuggets did not estimate how long he would be out, but McDyess said this week that surgery could keep him out for three months.

19 women soccer players invited to practice with national team
CHULA VISTA, Calif. — U.S. women's soccer coach April Heinrichs invited 19 Women's United Soccer Association players to the U.S. Olympic Training Center in preparation for the national team's coming games.
The oldest players in the camp both are World Cup champions; 33-year-old defender Joy Fawcett and 26-year-old forward Shannon MacMillan. The others players range in age from 21 to 25, and all played in the WUSA during its inaugural season.
Forward Danielle Fotopoulos, a member of the 1999 Women's World Cup champions, received her first callback since having a baby in November.
The other 1999 World Cup winners chosen by Heinrich were defenders Kate Sobrero and Tiffany Roberts, midfielder Lorrie Fair, and forward Cindy Parlow.
Also chosen were goalkeepers Lakesyia Beene and Jaime Pagliarulo; defenders Kylie Bivens, Staci Burt, Kelly Lindsey, Heather Mitts and Lindsay Stoecker; midfielders Shannon Boxx, Mandy Clemens and Nikki Serenga; and forwards Deidre Enos and Tara Koleski.

Player gets kick out of leading Big 12
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
Kicker Johnny Beck had two goals when he got to Kansas in August.
He wanted to be the one coaches relied on when games were on the line and, of equal importance, he wanted to feel like part of the team.
Ten kicks into his career, nine of which have gone for three points each, the freshman has accomplished both goals.
"I didn't know who he was when he got here," said senior safety Jamarei Bryant. "But when he started making all those field goals I got to know who he was real quick."
Beck said his teammates had taken notice because of his continued success.
"I can tell when I go out that guys are starting to come up and talk to me," said Beck, who leads the Big 12 Conference with 2.25 field goals per game. "I don't know how they've treated kickers before, but I really feel like they've accepted me."
Beck has given the Jayhawks the potential to score from anywhere inside the opponent's 40-yard line. His 59-yard kick against Colorado was the second longest in school history and gave the 'Hawks the lead at halftime.
They'd be crazy not to.
On Saturday, Beck rebounded from his first career miss, a 48-yard attempt that hit the upright, by making two critical kicks. He cut into an 11-point Texas Tech deficit with a 44-yarder in the fourth quarter and hit the game winner from 37 yards in the second overtime.
LAURIE SISK/KANSAN
"If he doesn't make it, we don'twin that game," Terry Allen said of the fourth-quarter kick. "We just gave it to him and said 'Johnny, get us within eight and we'll do what we can.'"
Beck's performance gave him Big 12 special teams player of the week honors and a new swagger to his step.
While the other kickers huddle together throughout practice. Beck freely floats around from offense to defense, watching the team and mingling with other players.
"I'd get bored if I was just watching everybody kick all practice," he said. "I like to watch the hits and the big plays like everyone else. It's just fun to see what's going on with the rest of the team."
Beck's interest stems from his career at Piper High School in Kansas City, Kan. At Piper, Beck was a starter in the offensive backfield and at safety, in addition to being a record-setting kicker.
Though Beck made 10 kicks from more than 50 yards in high school, which set a Kansas record, he said he had never gone through a stretch of success like he had this year.
like he had this year.
"Everything I'm hitting right now feels good," he said. "Even the one I missed hit the upright, so it's not like it was that off."

so it's not the case.
Still, Beck said he wouldn't relax. He understands the fickle nature of football.
nature of doubt.
"Sure, things are going great now, everybody's accepting me and everything," he said. "But I know it'd be a lot different if I was four or five out of ten instead of nine for ten."
Freshman kicker Johnny Beck gives the Jayhawks a 34-31 lead in overtime with a 37-yard field goal. Kansas' defense stopped Texas Tech from scoring on its second overtime possession with an interception by Marcus Rogers.

Experience adds to success of men's rugby team
(2)
By Kevin Flaherty Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's rugby club team has tackled and sprinted its way to a fast start, opening the year 3-1 and 1-0 in the Big 12 Conference.
After losing its first game to Wichita State, Kansas has rallied, winning its last three, including a 38-3 throttling of Big 12 rival Oklahoma State.
Zac Cox, team member and Wichita senior, said the team had been looking forward to playing Oklahoma State.
"We were very excited to finally play a college team since

we had been playing club teams all semester," Cox said. "It was good to play a team more at our level and we played very well."

ing off, the fact that we've been through our reloading years, and I think they are starting to go through theirs," Zluticky said. "We just had more knowledge about the game and our skills."
With junior Willie Lenz, senior Oliver Parkinson and freshman Danny Kerr all having standout seasons, the team has played well despite only playing one home game thus far. The team will need the momentum from the Oklahoma State home game to carry back to the road. The team will face two more weeks of road play before heading back home to play Truman
State at Westwick Fields on Oct. 20.
Zluticky said the team would be prepared for the challenges ahead.
"We have two tough road games in a row when we play at Pitt State and Nebraska at Omaha," Zluticky said. "But right now we're playing really well as a team and our skills are sharp. We have a good team."

Soccer team scores high in rankings
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas soccer team, after two strong conference outings on the road, is continuing to climb the ranks.
Both Soccer Buzz magazine and the National Soccer Coaches' Association of America have ranked Kansas sixth in the central region of their polls. The latest numbers are the team's highest ranking in either poll.
"It's great," said coach Mark Francis, "There's six regions, so in theory, that puts us in the top 36 in the country."
Nebraska, which defeated Kansas 2-0 on Sunday, is ranked first in both polls. The Cornhuskers are ranked fourth overall by the NSCAA and sixth overall by Soccer Buzz.
Kansas moved up from seventh in the Soccer Buzz poll and eighth in the NSCAAPoll a week ago. Before this season, they had never been higher than 10th in the central region.
the central Kansas is off to a 7-3 start and 3-1 in conference play. All three losses were to ranked teams, and all but three of the Jayhawks' games have been on the road.
games have been good this now," Francis said. "We've moved up because we've won some games and played tough against teams like Nebraska. If we keep winning, we'll stay there or keep moving up."
The Jayhaws next game is against Texas Tech at 4 p.m. Friday in Lubbock, Texas. The team closes the weekend Sunday at Colorado.

Men: Team shooting for better standings
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Price and senior Casey Harbour. Price and Harbour tied for 34th as Price carded a final round 74, complimenting Harbour's one-under-par 70 that was the best round of the season for Harbour, who competed individually in the tournament.
Even freshman Kevin Ward finished in a tie for 47th in his first appearance in a tournament for Kansas after his final round of 74.
While Kansas slipped from second place to fifth, only one shot away from fourth place Baylor after the final round, the rest of the field also shifted dramatically yesterday.
Arkansas State won the tournament as they moved from fifth to first place yesterday passing the University of Illinois, which fell to a sixth-place finish after leading the field going into yesterday's play.
Kansas will get a long rest before the team enters tournament play again as its schedule has them heading West to California. The Jayhawks will play Friday, Oct. 26, to Sunday, Oct. 28, in The Nelson-Stanford Invitational in Palo Alto.
Randall said he had hoped for a better result in the tournament, but that he was patient and concentrated on seeing the Jayhawks climb back toward the top of the standings in their tournaments.
The team then wraps up its fall schedule with an appearance in The Prestige at Palm Desert in Palm Desert, Calif.
"We can do better but it was an improvement from last week's tournament," Randall said. "Overall I feel it was a good tournament for us."
"I'm very happy with how she played," Hollingsworth said. "I think going back to Indiana she played three good rounds and she was very excited."

Transfer junior Jill MacDonald also continued her consistent play with an 81, and finished in a tie for 53rd.
They will have that opportunity Monday and Tuesday at the Marilynn Smith/Sunflower Invitational at Alvamar Golf Club.

Injured quarterback to start
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — Banded-up Oklahoma quarterback Nate Hybl will start this week against Kansas and will remain in the lineup unless he gets hurt again, coach Bob Stoops said yesterday.
Hybl had to leave Saturday's game against Texas in the first half after apparently injuring his non-throwing shot
QJ
Neither Stoops nor Hybl have disclosed the nature of the injury.
"I've just been told it's in our
better interest not to, "Hybl said.
Hybi practiced Monday and said he felt better as the practice went along.
His backup, Jason White, stepped into a pressure-filled setting at the Cotton Bowl helped lead the third-ranked Sooners to a 14-3 victory. He completed 16 of 23 passes for 108 yards, and ran for 38 yards on 12 carries.
C
Hybi was named the starter during fall workouts after a tight race with White that had lasted from spring workouts until two-a-days.
In five games, Hybl has completed 56 percent of his passes for 981 yards, with six touchdowns and six interceptions. Three of the interceptions came two weeks ago against Kansas State, when he was praised for withstanding a pounding by the Wildcats.
"But I also recognize that Nate has played pretty well. The whole talk a week ago was bragging on Nate. And in this game, until he got injured, he was doing very well," he said.
both of them were," Stoops said.
"I didn't lie when we said all along how much confidence we had in Jason and how good we felt
White has played in four games and has completed 18 of 27 passes for 137 yards, with no interceptions or touchdowns.
Nebraska staying focused on goal
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska coach Frank Solich knows that going unbeaten in the first half of the season means very little.
It only makes the second half that much more important.
N
"The second half of our schedule here will prove out whether we're the type of team that has a chance to be a national championship team," Solich said yesterday.
The 4th-ranked 'Huskers (6-0
overall, 2-0 Big 12) open the second
half Saturday at Baylor (2-2,
0-2). The Bears aren't likely to be much of a litmus test, but three of Nebraska's five games after that are against Top 25 teams, starting with No. 3 Oklahoma on Saturday, Oct. 27.
The 'Huskers like where they are at the halfway point, especially compared to their performance in the season opener when they held off TCU 21-7. Nebraska finished with just 310 total yards against the Horned Frogs, including a paltry 159 rushing.
Entering the final six games, the 'Huskers have revived the rushing attack and lead the nation in rushing with an average of 289 yards.
be a strong point at Nebraska, Erie Crouch has thrown the ball well when he's had to and completed 63 percent of his passes.
Defensively the Huskers rank fourth nationally at 236.5 yards and Nebraska's special teams coverage and returns have the consistency they lacked last year.
Although passing will never
"If you have a football team that's deficient in any one of those three areas, or two of those three areas, there's an awful lot to overcome," Solich said.
"This football team has shown it has the ability to play well in all three," he said.
Hoogveld: Relaxed attitude helpful

well," she said. "I don't care who gets the points as long as somebody does."
Coach Mark Francis said Hoogveld's easy-going personality had meshed well on this year's squad.
Hoogveld's leadership on and off the field has helped put the Jayhawks in a quest for the conference title. The Jayhawks, with a 3-1 conference mark, are near the top of the Big 12 pack. They hit the road for games against Texas Tech and Colorado this weekend, and return home next Friday to take on the always-tough Texas A&M Aggies.
"She's goofy," Francis said. "There's no other word for it. On a good team, you have to have some that are more serious, and then you need some that keep it light at the right time, and Hoogs definitely does that."
Hoogveld will be there, leading the young, talented squad like she has done successfully all year long. And if the opportunity arises, be alert for another crowd-pleasing handspring at Super Target Field.

Astros blow game after losing control of lead
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — The Atlanta Braves and Houston Astros were almost mirror images yesterday. Both had great starting pitching, costly errors by shortstops and closers that served up home runs.
The difference? Come playoff time, the Braves know how to win these type of games and the Astros don't.
Chipper Jones hit a three-run homer off nemesis Billy Wagner, capping a four-run eighth inning against the Houston bullpen as Atlanta pulled out a 7-4 victory in the opener of this first-round NL playoff series.
The Braves eliminated the Astros from the playoffs in
Braves
1997 and '99, but had been on the other end lately. They had lost seven straight postseason games, getting swept by St. Louis in the first round last year and by the New York Yankees in the' 99 World Series.
"We've always had good pitching and so have they, but the ball bounces our way probably a little more," Atlanta manager Bobby Cox said.
The Astros came in hoping to continue the momentum
for a weekend series against the Cardinals, when they won on Friday and Sunday to clinch the Central title for the fourth time in five years.
Instead, they reverted to the type of team that blew a 5 1/2-game lead with 12 left and has yet to win a playoff series in six tries. This was the seventh straight playoff game in which they blew a save.
Game 2 is this afternoon. The Astros will give Dave Mlicki his first postseason start two months after he was almost demoted to the bullpen. The Braves will counter with Tom Glavine, who is 9-0 in 11 starts in Houston since June 1991.
Mariners lose to Indians 5-0, despite record season
The Associated Press
SEATTLE — Ichiro Suzuki couldn't get a hit when it mattered most. He couldn't steal a base when it really counted, either.
When the Seattle Mariners won a record-tying 116 games during the regular season, just about everything went right for them. In their AL playoff opener against the Cleveland Indians yesterday, nothing went right.
Suzuki, the 2001 AL batting champion in his rookie season, singled in his first two at-bats and doubled in his final at-bat in the Mariners' 5-0 loss to the Cleveland Indians on Tuesday.
Indians
But with Seattle threatening with runners on first and
second in the fifth, Suzuki hit a line drive that center fielder Kenny Lofton caught by cutting in front of left fielder Marty Cordova ending the inning.
The Mariners had runners in scoring position in three other innings. Each time, they failed to get a key hit off Colon.
Dan Wilson grounded out with a runner on second ending the second, John Olerud struck out with a runner on third ending the sixth, Mark McLemore struck out and Bret Boone fouled out ending
the eighth after a double by Suzuki.
Suzuki singled with one out in the third, but was caught on a pitchout when he attempted to steal second. He led the majors with 56 stolen bases, but had only one against the Indians.
Before the game, Seattle manager Lou Piniella acted surprised when he was informed of Suzuki's stolen base total against Cleveland this season and promised to add to that number in the play-off series.
"Let's put it this way," Piniella said. "If he gets on base, I think he'll have a chance to steal more than one base in this series."
Schilling shuts out Cardinals
PHOENIX — In the best season of his career, Curt Schilling has never been better.
The Associated Press
Schilling pitched a three-hitter in a masterful duel in the desert last night as the Arizona Diamondbacks beat Matt Morris and the St. Louis Cardinals 1-0 in the opener of their first-round NL playoff series.
"Both guys were great tonight," St. Louis manager Tony La Russa said. "Their guy was a little greater."
Steve Finley was 3-for-4, including a two-out, RBI single in the fifth inning after Arizona had squandered scoring threats in the first and fourth.
Eight years apart, Schilling has thrown consecutive postseason shutouts. He threw a five-hitter for Philadelphia in the 1993 World Series.
"From the beginning of the game, watching Curt from center field, I had a real good feeling we were going to win," Finley said. "I had a good feeling that if we put at least a run on the board, with his stuff it could have a chance to be lights out."
Shilling improved to 2-1 in the post-season in five starts with a 2.45 ERA
Randy Johnson, the second half of Arizona's pair of aces, goes to the mound today in Game 2 against Woody Williams.
"The knowledge that we're going into Game 2 tomorrow up 1-0 with Randy on the mound is very satisfying." Schilling said.
He said he knew after Morris pitched out of a jam in the first inning, that it was up to him to keep the Cardinals down
In my mind, it was going to be a one-run game after that," Schilling said. "Every time they got a guy in scoring position, my thought process was that the game was on the line and I needed to make pitches."
He earned his reputation as a big-game pitcher with Philadelphia as the MVP of the 1993 NL championship series. After the best regular season of his career, the 34-year-old right-hander showed he has improved with age.

Fate of Emmys still up in the air
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — If CBS decides against a third attempt at airing this year's Emmy Awards, then other plans will be made to honor the winners, Emmy organizers said Monday.
"If they want to have a show, we'll go ahead with it," said Jim Chabin, president of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. "If they don't, we'll proceed with distributing the Emmys at a dinner or press conference, an appropriate venue."
The 55rd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards were to have aired Sunday on CBS but the network and academy called off the ceremony after U.S. and British attacks on Afghanistan.
The ceremony already had been postponed three weeks, from its original Sept. 16 air date, because of the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington.
"This has all happened so quickly," CBS Television President Leslie Moonves said Sunday. "It's really one day at a time, like it is for everything in America right now."
CBS programming executives and academy officials met Monday to discuss the show's fate. Moonves has the final say, expected this week.
"It's a decision that not only impacts the TV academy and CBS but the industry as well." CBS spokesman Chris Ender said.
Moonves acknowledged Sunday that many in the industry, including producers and casts of TV shows, had called to express reluctance at taking part in the ceremony
One TV producer, appearing on a local TV program Monday, took a poke at fellow industry members worried that the Emmys might be a potential terrorist target.
Malcolm in the Middle producer Linwood Boomer said the idea that terrorists would focus on what he called "TV people" was
"just ludicrous on the face of it. But trying to fight self-importance in Hollywood is a lost cause."
Industry concerns about the propriety of a Hollywood celebration already has led to changes. Sunday's ceremony was to be a muted one, with time spent paying tribute to heroes and victims of the Sept. 11 attacks as well as on award recipients.
The academy is intent on finding a way to honor Emmy winners if CBS nixes the ceremony, Chabin said.
"From phone calls we've received, people feel it's appropriate to distribute the awards," he said. A non-televised dinner at a Los Angeles area hotel would be one possibility.
Thomas O'Neil, author of The Emmys, said it would be a shame if television's awards were taken off television entirely, suggesting a low-key dinner ceremony could be filmed and presented later by CBS or another network.

Water polo team passionate about play
3
AABON LINDBERG/KANSAN
J. D. Boyle, Cleveland senior, looks to pass the ball to the hole man during a game against the Kansas Masters team Sunday in the Robinson Center pool. The Jayhawks, a club team, defeated the Masters.
By Steve Schmidt
Kansan sportswriter
Imagine if Drew Gooden was battling in the paint against a Missouri defender and all of sudden nine feet of water covered the court at Allen Fieldhouse.
Realizing the magnitude of the game, Gooden and his opponent decide to keep playing. This clash in the watery paint would resemble what water polo players go through on a routine basis on their way to the net.
Richard Farley knows all about water polo. In fact, the San Diego freshman has a love for the game. He competed all four years in high school and two years at the junior national level. Farley hails from Southern California, where the sport flourishes with popularity and is the home of the nation's top college programs. Farley said he was surprised Kansas even had a team. But when he went to practice, he realized that a club team in the Midwest could share his enthusiasm.
"I went to the practice and I was surprised at the effort that most these guys put in every day," Farley said. "Not many from this part of the country know about the sport. Not many people are fully aware exactly how to play, but it's the passion for the game that they love and
that's what they have."
This year, the Kansas club team has a 1-3 record in the Great Plains Division of the Collegiate Water Polo Association, despite a balanced scoring attack lead by seven experienced players. The team's only win was a 9-7 decision against Iowa State, and will be in action this weekend at Washington University in St. Louis. Its 11-game season wraps up in Minneapolis, Minn., at the division championships from Saturday, Oct. 27, and Sunday, Oct. 28. The champion will go on to the national championships at the University of Florida.
To get to the national championships, a team must master swimming in a 25-meter pool, while six players attempt to throw a ball past a treading goalie and into a large soccer-like net.
"It's not that hard to learn if you really try, people think that it's inspiring," said Kevin Gates, St. Louis sophomore.
"Once you get the basics down, it's pretty easy."
Easy, fun and rewarding.
"We're not into just die-hard competition. We're into going out and having fun," said John Trombold, Leawood senior and team vice president. "Obviously, we try to win, we practice to win, but if we don't, we still have a good time." Contact Schmidt at 864-4858

Fall break vacationers more wary about flying
By Brent Briggeman Kansan staff writer
When Sheryne Mitchell and Nicola Gray planned their fall break vacations five weeks ago, they had no way of anticipating the world-altering events that would follow.
Mitchell and Gray, both junior foreign exchange students from Scotland, planned to use the two-day break from class to visit Chicago. A week after buying the tickets, they watched the news as four commercial planes were hijacked and crashed in the worst terrorist strike in U.S. history.
"We weren't sure if we still wanted to go after that," Mitchell said. "But we decided we'd go ahead and go anyway."
Their confidence again wavered last weekend when American and British forces began a counter-strike against Afghanistan.
Finally, Mitchell said she had to take a stand.
"I've been flying most of my life, since I was like 8 years old," she said. "So there's no way I'm not getting on a plane."
Besides, Gray added, the increased security would probably make flying safer than it was before Sept.11.
Apparently, Gray and Mitchell are exceptions to the rule.
Beverly Falley, owner of Lawrence Travel Center, 1601 W.23rd St., said most University of Kansas students were avoiding flying.
"A lot of people are canceling trips," Falley said. "We've seen a lot of business trips canceled and students haven't been flying like normal."
Falley said domestic airline ticket prices have plummeted since the attacks. She cited a particular flight to Orlando, which dropped to $135 when it had been as much as $300 before.
Rebounding prices will cost Roarke Gordon a flight to Arizona.
Generally, Falley said, ticket prices have been reduced by nearly 50 percent. She said most prices were beginning to rebound, though the number of available flights were still down.
When he looked again, the cost had shot up to $320. Now he's planning a road trip.
Gordon, Wichita junior, almost purchased a $110 ticket from Kansas City to Phoenix, but held off for fear the flight would be empty and canceled.
For students who do choose to fly, they can expect continued heightened security.
American Airlines suggests travelers arrive at the airport two hours early for domestic flights and three hours in advance for international flights.
The airline said curbside check-ins have resumed at most airports. Kansas City International Airport officials could not be reached for comment.
Nicola Gray, the foreign exchange student, said she would contact KCI the day before her flight for any last-minute instructions. Aside from the details, she said she was ready to take to the skies.
"I've never been to Chicago and part of the exchange program is to see the country." Gray said. "I'll be a little nervous, I'm sure, but I'm still excited about the trip."

Players plead not guilty
Judge approves Duncan, Kinsey lawyers' request for delayed trial date at hearing yesterday
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Lawyers for Mario Kinsey and Reggie Duncan entered a plea of not guilty yesterday. The two football players did not appear at the hearing, which was scheduled to be their first appearance to face charges of theft and criminal use of a financial card.
Lawyers representing the football players appeared before Judge Peggy Kittel at 3 p.m. Kittel granted permission for
the men's lawyers to accept the charges on behalf of the men.
Sherri Loveland, representing Kinsey entered not guilty pleas on one count of theft and two counts of criminal use of a financial card.
Ron Schneider, representing Duncan entered not guilty pleas on one count of theft and one count of criminal use of a financial card.
It was uncertain who had hired the lawyers to represent Kinsey and Duncan
Both attorneys asked for a continuance, which was granted.
Schneider said they needed time to get the reports and apply for diversion.
Kittel originally scheduled the trial date for Monday, Oct. 29, but postponed it to 1:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 19. Schneider said if the prosecutor wouldn't grant diversion before then, then the trial would go ahead as scheduled.
Normally, the regular football season would have ended by Monday, Nov. 19, but the 2001 season was extended to Saturday, Nov. 24 due to the Sept. 11 attacks. Kansas rescheduled the Wyoming game at Memorial Stadium for Nov. 24.
Both players are scheduled to appear at the same time because of the relationship of the cases.
They are also required to go to jail to be booked. Kittel set each player's bond at $500. She also said that Kinsey and Duncan were not allowed to have any contact with the victim or witnesses.
Doug Vance, sports information director,
did not return phone calls on the matter.
Coach Terry Allen said yesterday's events were unfortunate, but the team was focusing on its next game against Oklahoma.
On June 12, Lindsay Douglas, Chesterfield, Mo., senior, had her purse stolen outside Bailey Hall. She filed a police report and called to cancel her credit cards. When she canceled her cards, she was told a pizza and gasoline had been purchased with her card. Douglas was able to trace the pizza to a room in Jayhawker Towers, the room that Kinsey and Duncan share.
On Sept. 11, Douglas filed charges against Kinsey and Duncan with District Attorney Christine Kenney.

Queers and Allies event kicks off the beginning of National Coming Out day
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
Dancing to "Lollipop" by Aqua, C.J. Snow and John Roth, co-directors of Queers and Allies pumped up the crowd at Tremors Night Club last night during the Amateur Drag Show by dancing and handing out lollipops.
Five participants performed for more than 100 people at Tremors, 729 New Hampshire St. The event was sponsored by Queers and Allies. Tips earned by the performers went to the organization.

Jessica Hurtado, Kansas City, Kan., junior, said she also attended to support her roommate who performed. She said she enjoyed the show.
Snow said Queers and Allies was also sponsoring the showing of "The Brandon Teenna Story" at 7:30 tonight at the Sunflower Room in the Burge Union. He said it was a documentary about the experiences of Teena, who was transgender.

Some apartments seeing increase in vacancies
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
Students who are in search of a place to live in Lawrence this year might find they have many options.
Sarah Weih, leasing consultant for First Management Apartments, 2001 W. Sixth St., said that many of the 20 apartment complexes the company owns in Lawrence had vacancies. She said part of the reason for increased vacancies was due to a drop in enrollment at the University of Kansas.
Four apartment complexes discussed their occupancy levels.
"We have noticed a lot of complexes still have a lot of vacant units that don't normally have vacant units," she said.
Weith said the drop in enrollment had affected the occupancy because in previous years their complexes were completely occupied.
"We are offering specials on apartments to accommodate it, but we are hoping next year to have more students," Weih said of the increase of vacancy.
Matthew Moiolan, Leavenworth senior, said he had no problem finding a

Deborah Jolly, manager for Peppertree Apartments, 3100 W. 22nd St., said there had been a decrease in student occupancy this year. However, Jolly said that the decrease was due to the amount of new apartment complexes.
"It's not affecting just apartments, but house rentals, too," she said.

"We have one vacant apartment, but it won't take any time to fill it up," Johnson said.
Brooke Myers, general manager for Trailridge Apartments, 2500 W. Sixth St., said the complex was unaffected by the drop in enrollment.

— Eve Lamborn
An 18-year-old female reported being the victim of sexual assault at Bada Bing, 913 N. Second St., Sgt. Mike Patrick said.

Professor of journalism honored for outstanding broadcasting
John Katch, an associate professor of journalism, who died Oct. 5, will be honored posthumously today by the School of Journalism and the Kansas Association of Broadcasters
The Grover Cobb Award for distinguished service to Kansas broadcasting will be dedicated to Katich at noon tomorrow at the KAB luncheon in Topeka.

Katch came to KU in 1986 and was the founding general manager of TV-30, a low power station at the University.

String of tornadoes rip Oklahoma, Nebraska
NATION&WORLD
The Associated Press
CORDELL, Okla. — Emergency crews and residents began cleaning up yesterday after a series of tornadoes tore across the Plains, severely damaging more than 100 homes and leaving tons of debris.
Five people, including an infant, were treated for injuries from flying glass and debris
Most of the damaged homes were in Cordell, a town of 3,000 in western Oklahoma, where a twister leveled houses, toppled power lines and tossed cars like toys in its three-mile path through town Tuesday evening. Six tornadoes also caused damage in central Nebraska.
About 300 houses — about a third of Cordell — were still without power yesterday as people returned home, Mayor Phil Klierwer said. Public schools were closed and residents were told to boil drinking water in case supplies were contaminated.
Oklahoma Gov. Frank Keating issued a state disaster declaration after touring the area Wednesday. No damage estimates were available.
Tim Stegal was at home taking a shower when his wife warned him of the danger.
"I had to go to the cellar in my birthday suit, literally." he said.
Officers found one man covered in mud and wandering down a street. He had been driving his car when the tornado hit, rolling the vehicle and tossing him about 250 feet, police said.
Another man, Elmo Maddox, 72, climbed into the cellar of his daughter's farmhouse just seconds before the tornado hit.
"When we shut that cellar door, it was right on us," Maddox said. "This was the worst I'd ever seen."
While tornadoes typically occur in the spring in Oklahoma, they aren't uncommon in the fall. In 1998, about a dozen tornadoes swept through the state on Oct.4.
Airliner diverted after 'incident'
The Associated Press
SHREVEPORT, La. — A Delta airliner bound for California was diverted to Shreveport and landed under escort from two fighter planes yesterday after the pilot reported a disturbance in the cabin.
Flight 357, with 148 people aboard from Atlanta to Los Angeles, was diverted after what the airline described as a "passenger incident."
There was no immediate word on the nature of the disturbance. The Boeing 757 reported the problem at 2:43 p.m. and landed 26 minutes later.
KSLA-TV reported that one person was in custody. The FBI said no one was available to
It was unclear where the two F-16 fighter planes took off from.
confirm the report.
Delta spokeswoman Cindi Kurczewski said there were 139 passengers and nine crew members aboard the jetliner. She said the plane was diverted "due to a passenger incident," but referred other questions to authorities.
On Monday, two F-16s were sent to escort an American Airlines jetliner to a landing in Chicago after a deranged man burst into the cockpit. Passengers tackled him, and the flight landed without incident.
The flight will continue to Los Angeles. No time was determined.

Simulated accident in Topeka shows seriousness of wrecks
TOPEKA, Kan. — Arms and legs flailed as the blue Chevrolet truck rolled over. To the two dozen children watching the demonstration at the Kansas Expo Centre, it seemed almost comical.
"Because it's not real life it seems funny," said Lt. John Eichkorn of the Kansas Highway Patrol.
But vehicle safety, Eichkorn said, is no laughing matter and while the people in the simulator were mannequins, the message is real: Seat belts save lives.
The demonstration was part of "Put the Brakes on Fatalities Day," a national event designed to heighten awareness about motor vehicle fatalities.
First lady Linda Graves singled out a group of 115 people — the daily U.S. average of traffic fatalities — to illustrate the loss of life.
"We have these people here to remind ourselves that behind every cold and sterile number was once a warm and vibrant person," Graves said.

American soldier wounded, taken to U.S. base in Turkey
An Army soldier got trapped between two trucks and was critically injured yesterday, becoming the first American casualty of Operation Enduring Freedom, the campaign against terrorism, officials said.
The soldier's name and where the accident took place were not disclosed.
"U.S. medical personnel on the scene performed initial lifesaving care," said Maj. Brad Lowell, a U.S. Central Command spokesman at MacDill Air Force Base in Florida. The soldier was taken to a U.S. base in Incirlik, Turkey, for further treatment.

A new vocabulary to go with that new voice?
George W. Bush has never been comfortable with the English language. From "Verbosity leads to unclear, inarticulate things" to "We cannot let terrorists and rogue nations hold this hostile or hold our allies hostile," his malapropisms have already become the stuff of legend.
Since his infamous defense of a campaign ad allegedly employing "subliminable" messages, his gaffes have garnered as much ink as his policies. In fact, many would argue that W.'s most enduring contribution to American society in the first eight months of his reign has been the fodder he provides for a rejuvenated Saturday Night Live. The funniest aspect of the skit featuring Will Farrell as the president was that the viewer is unsure if the writers invented the word "compassionativity" or if W. gave it to them free of charge.
But among the many lessons the president appears to have learned since the horrific attack Sept. 11 on New York City and Washington, D.C., is that language matters.
This is no small realization for a man whom aides have sheltered from speaking extemporaneously since he was on the campaign trail. Sure, Reagan was an actor who became president, but there are days when W. is so tightly scripted, I wonder if he is merely acting as the president.
Of late, his scribes have been sharp. "We will not only deal with those who dare attack America, we will deal with those who harbor them and feed them and house them," says W. in a statement that is relentless in its repetition. Similarly, the idea that "freedom has been attacked and freedom shall be defended" sounds like a slogan around which the American people can rally.
Commentary

Guest columnist
opinionkansan.com
VIRUS IS THE MOST DANGEROUS FORM OF INFECTION
But there are still moments when the old George "Is our children learned?" Bush reappears, and these are moments when I question the capability of the leader of the Free World. When off-book W. allowed that we would "hunt down" those who are responsible, a statement that smacks of a Texas night with a case of Schlitz and an Easy-Rider-gunrack.
In an effort to up the ante on Papa's "Operation Desert Storm," W. initially referred to America's counterattack as "Operation Infinite Justice," a lame term on many fronts, not the least of which includes the religious connotation the word "infinite" carries in the Muslim world.
In short, the Taliban trumped W. when it invoked "Holy War," a term that chills me to the core. The Christian administration quickly dropped any talk of a "crusade" for obvious reasons. The latest moniker — "Operation Enduring Freedom" — admirably avoids both stirring and offending: It may not rally the troops, but neither
will it provoke the enemy.
The sentence that W. may regret the most, however, occurred in the hours immediately following the attack. "We're at war," he said. Of course, the media have exploited the term. "America's New War," touts one news channel. "America at War!" exclaims another. There is talk of preparing for a 'wartime economy.' George Will's latest Newsweek column suggests that America is moving back into the "war years."
But as veterans of the "War on Drugs" can tell you, fighting a war is difficult when you have no identifiable (or locatable) enemy, and the objectives are unclear at best, if not impossible. The administration has always prepared us to dig in for the good fight, but the latest estimation is that this "war" could last five years.
And if we are no further along the path of "enduring freedom" at the end of W.s term, what then? At what point do we win this war? When can we declare victory? When can we revisit peace? In his haste to define the events of Sept. 11, the president may finally have misspoken himself into a position from which there is no escape.
The past two weeks have found nearly every major news publication in America fawning over the president's newly emergent voice. Here's to hoping that a recognition of the power of the English language accompanies that still evolving voice.

IN DEFENSE OF FEMINISM
Dear editor.
I would like to make a few comments regarding the column written by Robert Chamberlain entitled "Feminists Ignore Half of the Problem." I understand that the point of his argument (that some feminists do not look at "women's issues" from a dual-gender focus) is well meaning, but it is really hard to understand this meaning when it is completely surrounded by closed-minded remarks.
I would ask on behalf of myself and other feminists that Chamberlain not pigeonhole all feminists into one ideology. The definition of feminism (which I am guessing Mr. Chamberlain learned on the first day of Women's Studies 201) is the belief in the equality of the genders. While I do agree that there are some feminists that do not pay much attention to the problems facing men, I know a lot more that do care and do want something done about it.
I would also ask that Chamberlain act like a good political science major and cite his sources and statistics rather than just mentioning them as though they fell out of the sky. He sure did a nice job of laying out the pathos, but when I tried to find the facts behind these arguments, they were nowhere to be seen.

SANCTIONED JOKING
As programming chair for comedian Pablo Francisco's performance and in honor of celebrating Hispanic Heritage month with "Celebrating our Heritage, Building our Traditions," neither I nor the Hispanic American Leadership Organization (HALO) ever thought that a comedic performance should take priority over academics.
In fact, it is frustrating to hear comments, both verbal and written, about what took place behind the scenes without even knowing what took place.
Dear editor.
It is even more frustrating to read a letter to the editor saying, "This reflects poor planning and consideration for classes."
It is frustrating that some assume it is the fault of HALO or Student Senate. It is even more bothersome that such statements were printed without even consulting any HALO member.
HALO followed every procedure necessary to plan and arrange Pablo Francisco's performance. The Wescoe location was only chosen after all other locations that would accommodate our projected numbers were unavailable to us. In fact, our first location was in Budig Hall and was denied because of special testing and classes going on at the same time as the performance. We were then referred to Wescoe.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Considering the extreme effort put in the planning of this event, there should be no fault placed on HALO. We consider academics to be the top priority. However, no one had the right to disrupt Francisco's performance in the way he was interrupted, especially because of the time, effort and cost put into this event.
Anissa Ann Vitale Shawnee senior
Out of courtesy, I give my apologies for the disruption, but it certainly could have been handled much better on the other end.
So why didn't this office take the same consideration for Wescoe, or at least inform us of this matter? To have this type of performance you need to go through a University Events Committee that approves a location and type of event going to take place.
SHOCKED AND DISTURBED
In response to Meghan Bainum's column "Genitals are jewels to be treasured," I am shocked and disturbed by the content of the article. After reading the article I was in disbelief. Did the article really encourage me to masturbate or get together with a friend, throw off our clothes and "give one another a look"?
Sexuality is personal. Questions that
arise should be discussed with doctors or sex therapists, but not in the Kansan. What credentials does Bainum have anyway?
Also, from the Sept. 6 issue I find it ironic that only a few pages after the endowment quests for $500 million, Bainum tells us for our pleasure, the wetter, the better. I am curious how many generous alumni would be thrilled with the fact KU is promoting sexual relations with friends and masturbation.

WAR CAUSED BY FANATICS
Dear editor,
Americans, who in general ignore history and foreign affairs, have often, when forced by the crushing weight of events to pay attention, learned the wrong lessons from history.
On Sept. 11 we learned that history had not ended with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of communism, that the outside world with all its dangers and demands still existed; that our era of prosperous self-absorption had ended.
of Nazi genocide and world conquest.
Before Pearl Harbor, the millions in the isolationist America First movement rightly wanted to avoid repeating the senseless slaughter of World War I, but wrongly failed to see the mortal danger
In the post-World War II era, our political leadership, obsessed with containing communism, feared only the dangers of a Munich-style appeasement and ignored the beckoning quagmire that was Vietnam.
Now it seems that a good number of pacifist-minded Americans are recalling our disasters in Vietnam in trying to relate to our new war against terrorism.
But it is not to Vietnam that we should relate, but much further back in time. History has looped back at least as far as the 17th century, to the Salem witch trials and the 30 Years War, and even farther back to the Inquisition and the Crusades, when people and states burned and slaughtered one another in the name of religion.
This war suddenly thrust upon us is not about our indifference to or even active support of regimes that perpetuate the social and economic misery of millions.
It is all about a group of fanatics who, just as in the days of the Inquisition and the Crusades, are willing to slaughter thousands of innocents, as well as themselves, to bring about the supremacy of their interpretation of God.

KU Republicans must wait weeks for Senate funds
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas College Republicans will have to wait at least another two weeks before it is eligible to receive money from Student Senate.
A bill granting the group $382 was tabled last night in the full Senate meeting. It will be sent back to the Student Rights Committee next Wednesday to determine whether the group is eligible for funds. If it passes the committee again, the bill will be sent back to the full Senate for another vote.
Erin Blocher, KU College Republicans chairwomen, said the group should be able to receive Senate money because it does not have ties to national republican political organizations and does not get funding from any political parties.
"The purpose behind opening this up to partisan groups is to offer all student groups equal opportunity to receive funding." Blocher said. "It's become a lot more than $382 to me."
Breeze Luetke-Stahlman, off-campus senator, said because the KU College Republicans are a political group, it might be ineligible for Senate money. She said the group's possible ties to national republican organizations needed to be clarified before Senate could allocate money to it.
If passed, the bill would be the first of its kind to grant money to a political group at KU since a change in Senate rules and regulations in the spring, allowing political groups to be eligible for allocations.
ups to other business, Senate:
passed a bill giving $5,000 to the Multicultural Resource Center for speaker Brent Scarpo as part of the Hate-Out Week program.
- passed a bill allocating $2,850 to the KU Cultural India Club.
■ passed a bill granting $1,100 to the Pharmacy Fair, organized by the Academy of Students of Pharmacy.
Academy did not approve a bill amending Senate rules and regulations to change the amount of money from $1,000 to $5,000 for bills to be immediately considered under the Consent Agenda.

KU NAACP wants to involve more minorities
By J. R. Mendoza
Kansan staff writer
Timothy Lambert said he thought there needed to be more collaboration among minorities on campus. That's one of the reasons why the Decatur, Ill., senior decided to help create a chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at the University of Kansas.
"It's in support of all minorities," said Lambert, who serves as the group's president. "I felt that it's really an umbrella the whole campus can get involved in."
Lambert said the idea to start the chapter came last spring. The group received its chapter July 17 at the NAACP's annual convention in New Orleans. Lambert said the KU chapter was the first university chapter in Kansas.
He said he also wanted to form a chapter to leave a mark on the University.
"I wanted to look for a way to impact this University," he said. "With the NAACP, it's something I can throw myself and personality into for the betterment of the campus."
Lambert got his sister, Kristin Lambert, Decatur, Ill., sophomore, to help out as well.
The Lamberts said the group had its first meeting last Thursday, and about 15 people attended. The group has started a tutoring program for Lawrence elementary school students and is working on events for Black History Month, they said. They also said they wanted to work with other organizations.
"We work together well," said Kristin Lambert, who serves as vice president of the group. "We kind of know what works for each other."
The Lamberts stressed that the organization was open for anyone to join.
Shaunte Abernathy, Kansas City Kan., sophomore, and programs coordinator for the group, said she got involved because of issues facing students of color at KU.
"The main goal is to do community service, educate more people and help minority groups," she said.
The group meets at 7:30 p.m. the first Thursday of each month at Room 107 in Green Hall.

University vs. Oread debate replaces midterm exam
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
The continuing debate about the future of houses on the 1300 block of Ohio Street moved into the classroom yesterday, when students from the a journalism class, Research and Writing, got a chance to hear about the issue.
Instead of a conventional midterm exam, the students watched a live debate on the issue.
The debate featured Ken Stoner, director of the Department of Student Housing and Marci Francisco, a board member from the Oread Neighborhood Association.
Rick Musser, professor of journalism and executive producer of the class, said that he used this format for the midterm in previous semesters.
Stoner and Francisco debated about the plans to demolish houses along the 1300 block of Ohio Street, to replace them with scholarship halls.
"I've been tracking this one since the summer and I thought, 'Boy if it got legs, this will be a great one,'" he said.
The debate began with Stoner and Francisco each spending 10 minutes discussing their stance on the issue.
Stoner, who opened first, said the zone was predominately a student housing area.
This area is zoned for multi-dwelling use, for apartment use, for student housing and that's the appropriate use for the facility zoned," Stoner said.
Stoner showed pictures to illustrate the zone, including pictures of the houses which he would like to see demolished in the future.
Francisco said the University's campus plan had not been followed and cited specific examples from the plan that had been ignored by the University in the process.
"We thought this was the University wanting to work with the neighborhood," Francisco said of the campus plan.
The debate turned heated up when Francisco asked Stoner a question. While he was answering her, she attempted to take the microphone away from him. Musser then intervened, and Stoner threw the microphone on the table.
Francisco said the demolition would affect the boundaries between the University and the neighborhood.
"The University has made a good case about building the halls, but they have
other opportunities and other places," Francisco said.
Stoner said the houses were old houses and in bad condition. He said although they had history, they were not necessarily historical houses.
Marc Ricketts, Osawatomic sophomore, said the debate was helpful for him in covering real stories.
in cobbling on "It's actual experience, getting to go out and practice what you want to do for a living, so it was a lot better than a multiple-choice test," Ricketts said.
Later this month, members of the Historic Resources Commission and the University's Historic Preservation Board will meet to see if an agreement can be reached.
No official date has been set.

Sports fans' basking not so terrible
Sometimes the passion that sports creates brings out the beast in people
Shortly after the Kansas football team's predictable 41-17 loss to UCLA last month, an altercation occurred between two groups of passionate football fans at Quinton's Bar Deli, 615 Massachusetts St.
A small group of raucous Bruins fans eating at the restaurant began chanting UCLA's fight song, prompting retaliation from a small group of Jayhawk fans, who naturally answered by reciting the Rock Chalk chant.
The restaurant's management intervened before the heated chanting erupted into a full-blown brawl, and peace was restored.
Though confrontations between sports fans are not an everyday occurrence, Matthew Perry, a manager at Quinton's, said tempers often flared after Kansas loses big games. If the Jayhawks win, Perry said, alcohol sales increase and patrons are more jubilant. The effects are even more noticeable during basketball season especially after games against
— especially after games against heated Big 12 Conference rivals.
Jaime King, a server at Henry T's Bar & Grill, 3520 W. 6th St., said customer generosity on game days depended on how well the Jayhawks had performed.
"If KU loses, tips aren't so good," King said. "If KU wins, then people throw money at you."
Some say fans whose temperament depends on the performance of their favorite sports team need to get a life. Psychologists say they're just BIRGing.
BIRGing is an acronym for a theory psychologists call "basking in reflected glory." It's when people, wanting to feel better about themselves, take credit and feel responsible for the success of others.
Sports fans want to be associated with winning teams, and often distance themselves from teams that lose.
Rick Snyder, professor of psychology, points to a study by Arizona State University psychologist Robert Cialdini that demonstrates this phenomenon. Cialdini observed the number of students wearing sweatshirts with team logos the Monday after weekend football games at six universities across the nation.
The results show that substantially more students wore sweatshirts with a team logo after victories. After losses, the number of people observed wearing logos dropped dramatically.
"People want to be successful." Snyder said. "They can't do it by themselves always so they identify with a team"
Some criticize fans for placing such importance on sports, which seem frivolous compared to life's other dilemmas, including the recent terrorist attacks.
For many students, emotions do hinge on Nick Collison's field-goal percentage or Kirk Hinrich's assist-to-turnover ratio. And it's true that in the grand scheme, these things matter little.
The Kansas basketball team's winloss record won't solve terrorism, but sports teams do offer a sense of belonging.
Fort two 20-minute halves, thousands of ordinary strangers are transformed into brothers and sisters, united for the common purpose of being part of something special. Not many things have the power to unite the way sports teams do.
Don't hold back. Root like crazy for your favorite team. When it wins, soak up the glory as if it's your own, and tell the world about it. A little BIRGing never hurt anyone.

'Hawks handled in sweep
No.2 Nebraska slams Kansas in lopsided loss
By Steve Laurenzo Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team felt the wrath of No. 2 Nebraska last night.
The Jayhawks were swept swiftly in Nebraska Coliseum in Lincoln, Neb., 30-16, 30-16, 30-17.
Nebraska (14-1, 7-0) started games two and three with 4-0 runs, rendering Kansas (11-6,2-6) little chance of taking a game, let alone the match.
Kansas coach Ray Bechard said Nebraska was worthy of its No. 2 ranking.
"We didn't play all that poorly tonight," Bechard said. "It's just that Nebraska is a very fine volleyball team."
The match provided several
season-low statistics for the Jayhawks.
They suffered their most lopsided three-game sweep of the season thus far. Nebraska defeated the Kansas by a combined score of 90-49. The 41-point deficit was 14 more than the Jayhawks' previous worst outing, in Austin, Texas, when the Longhorns defeated Kansas by a combined 27 points.
Led by senior middle blocker Jenny Kropp, Nebraska outblocked Kansas 8-1.
Kropp had two solo blocks and two block assists. The seven-block deficiency was Kansas' worst of the season.
Leading what little offense the Jayhawks were able to muster against an overpowering Nebraska squad was sophomore outside hitter Sarah Rome, who finished with nine kills and five digs. Second to Rome was freshman outside hitter Danielle
McHenry with seven kills. The Jayhawks' hitting efficiency hit a season low 6.3 percent.
Junior middle blocker Kylie Thomas said Nebraska played a very physical match.
"They are very talented, and it showed on the court," Thomas said. "It seemed like they put good swings on the ball on every attempt."
Nebraska's superior hitting capacity can be partially explained by the height of its players. Only four of Nebraska's 16 players are under six feet tall, compared to eight out of 14 players on the Jayhawks' roster that fall short of the six-foot mark.
The Jayhawks have a busy weekend ahead, with a pair of matches in North Carolina. They play the University of North Carolina on Friday and North Carolina State on Saturday.

Senior Jayhawks shoot down Texas Tech
By Jeff Denton
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas football team has been driven by youth this season, but it was a couple of 20-something fifth-year seniors who took the wheel in Saturday's 34-31 double overtime thriller in Lubbock, Texas.
Termaine Fulton and Marcus Rogers, two of the Jayhawks' oldest players, elevated their play in the game's final half hour. Although youth brought the Jayhawks back
— freshman Johnny Beck boomed a 42-yard field goal to cut Texas Tech's fourthquarter lead to eight points, and sophomore Reggie Duncan rumbled into the end zone for the game-tying two-point conversion —
experience carried Kansas into overtime, and experience cemented the second win of the season.
Kansas coach Terry Allen marveled at two of the football players he helped lure to Lawrence. Rogers and Fulton were two key recruits in Allen's first recruiting class five years ago.
"Termaine's had to step up in the absence of Harrison," Allen said. "Saturday he really made plays for us. And in the Big 12, where there are a lot of good linebackers, Marcus Rogers is an outstanding football player."
Termaine Fulton is 25. In the fourth quarter Saturday, Fulton flourished. He caught a Kinsey bullet on third down and flipped a

Road victory changes football team's mindset
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
As rain sprinkled down on Tuesday's practice, the Kansas football team learned a lot about itself.
The clock was approaching 6 p.m., the team was tired from a long practice and cold from the wind and rain and the opponent awaiting was the undefeated national champions.
"At the end of practice, we got into our two-minute offense, and you could see everyone come alive and the intensity jumped up." said coach Terry Allen. "They were having fun out there."
The practice could have been one of the lowest points of the season. Instead, it was a highlight.
Kansas went on a miraculous two minute, 63-yard drive to comeback eight points against Texas Tech last Saturday, eventually picking up the victory in overtime. A loss would have been the team's third straight as it heads into a five-week stretch that includes games against
The atmosphere at the practice could have been different.
Oklahoma, Kansas State, Nebraska and Texas, all of which have been ranked in the top 10 this season.
"It would have been pretty bad being out there in the rain and riding a three game losing streak," said running back Reggie Duncan.
But that wasn't the case.
But that wasn't the point.
Linebacker Marcus Rogers picked off Red Raider quarterback B.J. Symons in the second overtime to seal a victory for the Jayhawks. Just like that, Kansas was 2-2, with a 1-1 record in the Big 12 Conference and riding the season's first true
emotional high.
"That win was big time," safety Jamarei Bryant said. "We needed that from a confidence standpoint. Now, instead of going out there hoping we can win, we can go out knowing we can win. We needed that."
The team has started looking at itself differently, and so have outside observers.

Comeback: Rogers had career-best game

perfect lateral to sophomore Derick Mills. Kansas had practiced the hook and ladder play late last week. Kinsey made the pass. Mills made the run. But it was Fulton, the middle man, who made the difference.
"We ran it four or five times in practice," Fulton said. "I ran it when I played Pee Wee football, but that was like six or seven years ago. It was a great time to run that play."
But Fulton was not finished. With time running out, Kinsey flung a low spiral toward the left side of the end zone. Right when the football looked like it was going to skid across the artificial turf, Fulton contorted his body to grab it before it bounced. Minutes after helping Kansas cross midfield, Fulton helped his team get within two points of a tie game.
"Coaches called an in-and-out route," Fulton said. "The ball was coming hard, and Mario threw it low. But I just stopped and dropped to my knees and cradled it."
came without any help from his teammates.
For the game, the 5-foot-10, 190-pounder from Topeka had a season-high seven catches for 60 yards and that one touchdown.
While Fulton fueled the Jayhawks' comeback, Rogers manhandled the Red Raider offense. The 6-foot-2, 235-pounder from Dallas wreaked havoc at Jones SBC Stadium. He busted wide receivers and feasted on Texas Tech running backs for a career-high 22 tackles, 10 of which
Allen was not astounded with the play of his middle linebacker. Rather, he was more surprised that his co-captain could even play. Rogers was hobbled with a sore left foot before the game.
"I was surprised that he played, but play and play he did."
"On Thursday, he got stepped on out there by all 300 and whatever pounds of Nate (Dwyer)," Allen said. "And he said, 'Coach, I really stepped on him with the cleats on the top of his foot.'"
Marcus Rogers will be 23 in December. He shook off the pain to punish Texas Tech in his home state Saturday. His career-best day in tackles was nice, Rogers said, but it was only a prelude to his play in overtime.
He played the first four quarters of the game relying on instincts and his body. He helped seal the game by relying on instincts and his hands.
As Texas Tech threatened to go ahead in the second overtime, Rogers stepped up and picked off a B.J. Symons pass. It was Rogers' first interception of the season, and it secured Kansas' 34-31 victory.
"I just saw the receivers crossing, and I backed up right into them," Rogers said. "There was a little pain in the foot during the game, but I just sat that aside. I had to play through it. There was no doubt we were going to win coming into that second overtime."

own problems. Rather than field questions about the Texas Tech game, Allen answered questions about the team's struggling running game, the Jayhawks' inability to win a game on the road and the team's confidence in its new quarterback, Mario Kinsey.
Yesterday, Allen talked more about the matchup with Oklahoma than his own squad. Allen spoke about Sooner safety Roy Williams, how he hoped to deal with running back Quentin Griffin, and why Oklahoma seems to come up with big plays every week.
"We start looking around and see that we played a tight game against a Colorado team that beat Kansas State," Allen said.

"Nothing had worked in the
running game," Hartwig said. "We needed to see that the things we were doing could work. Now we know."
The confidence wasn't doused by a cold rain on Tuesday, but how it holds up against the No. 3 team in the nation remains to be seen.

Cardinals beat Johnson to even series
Braves win puts team one game closer to NLCS
The Associated Press
PHOENIX—Randy Johnson goes from fearsome to failure in the postseason. He just can't seem to win.
Rookie Albert Pujols hit his first postseason homer, a two-run opposite-field shot in the first inning.
Johnson extended his major league record for consecutive playoff losses to seven yesterday as Woody Williams and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 4-1, tying their NL series at one game each.
The Cardinals' victory came less than 24 hours after Curt Schilling's three-hit, 1-0 masterpiece. Game 5 in the best-of-five series is Friday night in St. Louis.
"If someone is to blame, I guess I am. I gave up three runs," Johnson said. "It seems like I've been in this position behind a microphone in the postseason every year. ... I pitched the best I could. It wasn't good enough."
The 35-year-old Williams allowed one run on four hits in seven-plus innings in his playoff debut.
Williams was relieved by left-hander Steve Kline after Craig Counsell led off the eighth with a
pinch-hit single. Pinch-hitter Greg Colbrunn singled to make Counsell the first Diamondback to reach second in the game.
The runners advanced to second and third on Tony Womack's sacrifice bunt, and Counsell scored when Danny Bautista, pinch-hitting for Steve Finley, grounded out to third.
Luis Gonzalez, 0-for-8 in the series, ended the rally by grounding out.
Helped by Jim Edmonds' diving catch in the ninth, Kline finished for a save in his first postseason appearance.
Miguel Batista, who still will start on Friday, was one of three relievers used by Diamondbacks manager Bob Brenly in the ninth.
With one out and runners at first and third, pinch-hitter Kerry Robinson hit a one-bouncer to Batista.
But the confused pitcher, who could have caught the runner at third in a rundown or gone for a double play at second, hesitated, and finally threw to first, pulling Mark Grace off the base. Everyone was safe as the Cardinals' fourth run scored.
Williams, 7-1 with a 2.28 ERA after being acquired by St. Louis from San Diego on Aug.2, shut down an Arizona team that had beaten him twice in three decisions when he was with the Padres this season.
"I'll use a term that usually applies to position players. He's a gamer," Brenly said of Williams.
Atlanta 1, Houston 0
HOUSTON — Tom Glavine and the Atlanta Braves showed that they, too, know how to throw a shutout in the playoffs.
In a postseason that's begun with dominant pitching, the team that's been doing it longer than the rest joined the trend yesterday in a 1-0 victory over the Houston Astros in Game 2 of the NL first round series.
Glavine threw eight sharp innings and John Smoltz pitched the ninth to cap the third shutout in the first four playoff games.
"You hear over and over that the postseason is about pitching and defense. We've proven that the last couple of days," said Glavine, who improved to 10-0 in Houston since June 1991.
This one sends the Braves home needing only one more win to return to the NLCS after a one-year absence.
The Astros have gotten great pitching this series, too, but poor defense from shortstop Julio Lugo has put them on the brink of dropping to 0-7-all-time in playoff series.
After making the fielding error that turned Game 1 in Atlanta's favor, Lugo made throwing errors on the first two balls hit to him in Game 2.
Now the Astros, who were ousted by the Braves in 1997 and 1999, go to Atlanta facing elimination. They've never won such a game in six previous tries. Shane Reynolds will try changing that Friday afternoon when he starts Game 3 against Atlanta's John Burkett.
The change of scenery might be Houston's best hope for extending the series because the Astros had the NL's best road record, winning a franchise-record 49 games.
"I don't feel good about going on the road 0-2. I wouldn't feel good about staying here 0-2," Houston manager Larry Dierker said. "If we are able to win two games there, then I feel like we're due to win one here."
Braves manager Bobby Cox learned before the game that his sister, Joy Rogers, had a brain hemorrhage and was in intensive care. He did not speak with reporters and planned to drive to be with her in Birmingham, Ala., upon flying back to Atlanta late yesterday.
It was not known whether Cox would be with the Braves for Game 3.
Glavine, who said he didn't know about Cox's distraction, limited Houston to six hits, striking out three and walking two. His toughest jam came in the fifth, when the Astros got within six inches of taking the lead then had men on the corners with one out.

Schwen Davenport, Eddie Schubert, and Craig Loo shake the stage as they jump around on the back of the trailer. Full Feature, a rock band, performed in the parking lot at the Hy-Vee, 4000 W 6th St., on Saturday morning.
Today's feature: Rock Band serves up full plate of rock, rap, good times
STORY BY LOUISE STAUFFER PHOTOS BY J.E. WILSON
"What's up, Hy-Vee?!" Eddie Schubert yelled to the Saturday-morning crowd at the Hy-Vee parking lot. Schubert, the lead singer of the band Full Feature, was ready to rock.
ture. The band was performing for a charity event at Hy-Vee's lot, 3504 Clinton Parkway, with an audience of a few friends and some shoppers passing by. But it could have been a packed night at Sandstone Ampitheatre in Kansas City, Kan., by the way Schubert was dancing and jumping from the stage to the people in the grass.
As the band pumped in-your-face rock music, the event coordinator pulled Schubert aside and mentioned that a neighbor from three blocks down called and complained about the noise. The band reacted by turning the volume up, and with Schubert making the announcement, "Hey lady, buy some ear plugs!"
CHARGOUSO
Full Feature is a rock band full of contagious energy, smart-ass lyrics, a funky rock sound, a rapping guitarist and a lead singer with crazy moves.
Full Feature lead vocalist Eddie Schubert unleashes the fury into the microphone at the band's show Saturday.
From headlining at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., to playing for a charity event in front of a grocery store. Full Feature knows how to have a good time in any situation.
time in any street.
"What makes a great show is if the audience is enjoying it — it doesn't matter where we are," the drummer Ben "Boyd" Brasel said.
"Three of us were friends in high school, and two of the guys (Craig and Marshal "Assman" Loo) are brothers, so we were all close before we became a band," Brasel said.
Great chemistry on-stage and a close bond off-stage help the band make playing music together enjoyable.
Craig Loo, bassist for the band, said playing in Full Feature was intense.
"We all have a lot of energy, and when we're on stage, we tend to get wrapped up in our performance," he said. "We just try to convey a positive attitude." Working together,partying together
Brasel said the formation of Full Feature happened in an unusual way. Everything started with Schwen Davenport,
the band's lead guitarist, and a drum set.
"Schwen got a drum set, kind of as a birthday surprise, intending for someone to start playing them," he said. "I ended up picking them up."
At the same time Brasel began the drums, Craig Loo picked up the bass guitar. The band calls Sept. 9 its anniversary, because on that day in 1993, the group of five played together for the first time.
After relocating to Kansas City from Lawrence in August of 2000, the band shares an eight-bedroom house and members said they wouldn't change a thing about their living arrangement
"I just don't know any other way." Brasel said. "We're a band that not only works together, but we party together."
Since the band's move to Kansas City, its fan base has grown. However, it has met some frustrations with the move. Since 105.9 The Lazer's format switch, no radio stations in the Kansas City area play local music on a regular basis.
play in St. Louis." Unlike other towns such as St. Louis or Des Moines, we have no support from radio stations here," Craig Loo said.
But Full Feature still enjoys performing in Lawrence where it has a strong fan base.
One of Full Feature's regular gigs is to play before each home University of Kansas football game in the northwest corner of the stadium. But the placement hasn't drawn a big audience yet, so the band is trying to relocate to a different place.
Full Feature got the football gig from doing KU events in the past, and receives about $300 for each performance.
The sound around Full Feature
Full Feature has the heart of a rock band, but layers of funk, reggae and rap influences add depth to the band's sound.
"We're funky, but rooted in rock," said Craig Loo, whose rapping adds a hip-hop sound. And Brasel said that while rapping wasn't present in all of the band's songs, it was a part of the music from the beginning. "It's just always been there — it just fits. A couple of the guys listen to hip-hop, so that influences our sound a little," he said. "Our music is kind of like a melting pot."

- What: Full Feature
- When: Before every Kansas home football game
- Where: The northwest corner of Memorial Stadium
"He and I used to switch around, but then around November or December last year, we decided that things would be better this way," Craig Loo said.
The members have changed their original roles in the band since the beginning. Craig Loo and Schubert used to share lead vocal responsibilities, but Loo now plays bass guitar and Schubert is lead vocalist.
Brasel said the band plays about 80 percent of its own music and about 20 percent covers at their shows.
percent covers us in "We play cover songs to keep interest, but we try to concentrate on our own material," Brasel said. Some covers the band plays include Weezer's Say it Ain't So, and Bob Dylan's The Hurricane.
Aside from the unique sound of the band's music, the lyrics are also special. Craig Loo describes the idea behind a song A Carton for You as not being completely about smoking.
He said that the idea came to him one night when a girl had one cigarette left, and didn't give it to him.
"It came to me about two or three in the morning," he said. "I started imagining that she was in love with me, and that she started wondering why you can't buy love."
SYWAS or Screw You With a Smile, Girl in the Corner and Sidewalks are some other songs the band plays at its shows.
Brasel described the band's lyrics as easily digestible.
"We just want to be a fun party band," he said.
The future sound for Full Feature
Full Feature has plans to travel to Fayetteville, Ark., to enter the recording studio for the third time. The band will begin recording its first full-legnth album in the third week of December and has started preparing to record this past month. Brasel said the album will be an improvement from the band's last recordings.
"The first time we got into the studio, we didn't know anything about recording, so it just turned out OK. It got a little better the second time," Brasel said. "This next album is going to be more of a masterpiece
— it's going to be something new.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct.11).
You've always known instinctively how to work with a partner. The give and take of negotiation can naturally for you. This year, you'll expand that concept to a larger group. Sometimes you'll lead, sometimes you'll follow. Sometimes you'll have to choose between your public and your private lives, but you'll be a stronger leader for it.
Aries (March 21- April 19). Today is an 8.
Hope springs eternal. Just when you wondered if all was lost, along comes the dawn. That means joy, love, popularity and good luck.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 6. If you're stuck in the middle of an argument that's not of your making, back out. Have the adversaries asked you to be the referee? Are they paying you for your services? If not, no comment. They won't value your advice anyway.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is an 8. Distant dreams beckon, but it's the chores closer to home that take up your time. Once they're done, dinner with a favorite fellow fantasist would be perfect. Start planning that trip, and you'll make it happen.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 5.
An extra job is profitable, but watch out for hidden expenses. Make sure it's worth the extra time and effort. If it brings in enough for an item on your wish list, it could work out.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is an 8.
You know you're right, so why can't you wide-eye idealist admit it? Your argument or conversation may seem to be leading nowhere, but you're getting your ideas across. Be patient and lighten things up with a joke. This stubborn person is coachable.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 5.
A stressful situation is only temporary.
Once the people who are telling you
what to do figure out what they actually
want done, your life will get much easier.
Don't bother trying to please every-
body. Just help them get organized.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is an 8.
You may have a scheduling conflict. Be careful, or you'll set yourself up to be in two places at once. You might be able to talk to one friend while you're on your way to visit another. These could be business associates, too. Stay alert.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6.
Your loyalty could be generously rewarded. Conversely, if you've been contemplating a coup, you could get into trouble. The most noticeable authority figure in your life is in control, so if there's something you don't want this person to know, keep quiet. If there's something that makes you look good, let it out.
P
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is an 8
All of a sudden, everything looks possible
again. Some of it is still complicated,
but possible. You're in the mood to try
something new, and when you're like
that, you make things happen. Your
friend will be glad to help.
2
capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is a 5.
Do the research, find the benefit plan or
investment plan that works for you, and
take it to the people who sign your
checks. If you go to them with a solution
instead of a problem, greater rewards
could be yours.
Crab
C
BALLET
JUSTICE
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 7.
A strong, dynamic leader wants to take control. If this person has your best interests at heart, perfect. Sit back and let him or her do the driving. If this person doesn't have your best interests at heart, bail out.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 6. Your services are in great demand. Everybody wants you to help, but nobody seems to be paying much. Benefit performances are worthwhile if they'll lead to good contacts or if you truly support the cause, but don't stretch yourself too thin.

Student plays picked for national festival
SINGING ON THE STAGE
by Carlos Centeno
lavplay writer
Paul Lim patrols his students as they act.
Lim, an English Alternative Theater producer, walks around the actors at the Lawrence Arts Center, viewing different angles of each scene.
The cast of the English Alternative Theater play Mourning Glorie rehearses a scene Tuesday night. The play will be presented tomorrow through Sunday at the Lawrence Arts Center, 200 W. Ninth St.
He then whispers to playwright Kirby Fields, Lawrence graduate student.
Fields, whose play, Mourning Glorie, was selected for the Kennedy Centers American College Theatre Festival, watches over the scene along with director Jeremy Auman.
Along with Fields' play, Nathan Gonzales' play, Running with the Big Dogs, has been selected to compete in the Kennedy Centers Festival.
They will both be produced by the English Alternative Theater as well, also known as EAT.
In Fields' play, Mourning Glorie, the main character is Man, who "takes advantage of his naturally empathetic nature by attending funerals for strangers."
Unusual relationships also happen between him and the two women in his life, a lonely and persistent Christian soldier and a college-graduate turned-prostitute.
The collision between these two atmospheres, funerals and women, gives Man a different perspective about life.
"The play does not preoccupy itself with Man's potential divinity; rather, the emphasis is on his struggle to be both godlike and human." Fields said.
Mourning Glorie first appeared in Fields' short story writing.
"There was a lot of dialogue in the story, so drama and dialogue kind of fit together," he said.
Gonzales:
Wrote Running with the Big Dogs
Inspired by human behavior at funerals, Mourning Glorie is reminiscent of Fight Club, a novel written by Chuck Palahniuk and later taken to the big screen by director David Fincher.

more from human struggle.
Fields, now a KU graduate, said that Mourning Glorie might sound depressing or gloomy, but he didn't think it "wallows in its own miserv."
Fields: Wrote Mourning Glories
On the other end of the spectrum, Nathan Gonzales' Running with the Big Dogs
surrounds itself with slapstick humor, although Gonzales said his style was not specifically defined.
Inspired by "stretched stories from life experiences and people in (his) life," the play deals with a situation in which four 20-something friends find themselves.
"Dark comedy, slapstick comedy, sketch comedy — I just like to think of it as a conglomerate of the sorts — just my own comedic style," he said.
While two of the four characters, Mike and Jim, are reminiscing about their college days, loud music plays in the background. The elderly woman living on the floor directly below is obviously disturbed by the noise and
she comes up to complain.
After verbally fighting with these neighbors, she has to sit down to take a brief breath. While resting, Miss Metske, the old lady, dies.
"With an assortment of crazy reasons as to why the four can't simply call the police, they put their heads together to form a completely wacky and outlandish plan on how to get poor old Miss Metske back to her own apartment," Gonzales said.
Both plays hit the spotlight at the Lawrence Arts Center. 200 W. Ninth St., at 8 p.m. tomorrow and Saturday, 11 p.m. Saturday and 2:30 p.m. Sunday.

Boy-band members get in sync with acting
Jayplay writer
By Nicole Roché
All have made the risky transition from music stars to movie stars.
Mariah Carey. Mark and Donnie Wahlberg Ice Cube.
Now Lance Bass and Joey Fatone,
members of the pop group 'N Sync,
hope to follow in their footsteps.
Bass and Fatone star in the Miramax film On the Line, which opens in theaters Saturday. Oct. 26.
"I consider myself an entertainer — music, acting, everything," Bass said via an Oct. 4 conference call. "Definitely my first and foremost love is music and it will never take the back burner. But yeah, my focus right now at the end of the year is on this movie."
"Have you ever met the perfect girl (and let her get away)?" Bass plays Kevin Gibbons, a shy young man who is tormented after meeting the girl of his dreams on a train ride and then forgets to get her number.
bass' character spends the rest of the movie trying to find the girl again. Along for the fun is Fatone, who plays Gibbons' friend, Rod.
The tagline for the film reads.
Bass, whose production company is making the movie, said he was originally looking at everyone from Ryan Philippe to Freddie Prinze, Jr. for the part of Kevin.
Miramax agreed to do the film under one condition—Bass had the starring role.
"In a way I'm like Kevin — kind of a hopeless romantic very focused on his career," Bass said. "But I wouldn't
go to the lengths that he does to find this girl again."
'N Sync fans like Nathan Dixon, Salina junior, realize that it may be hard for audiences to accept the two music stars as legitimate actors.
"I think the general public is going to look down upon it," Dixon said. They just see them as members of an untainted boy band."
Yet Dixon thinks the two have already displayed exceptional acting ability as members of 'N Sync.
"I would say from their performances onstage they have shown they can act," he said. "They take on different roles when they are singing and performing."
Chad Pope, Wichita sophomore, said he could not take the film seriously, especially knowing Bass and
"Maybe the general public won't be thinking as much about the quality of the acting." Pope said. "But I just can't see liking 'N Sync, ever, even if they turned out to be decent actors, I just can't get past the crappy music."
Fatone are affiliated with a "boy band."
Fatone said he thought audiences just needed to lighten up.
“People need to give us the benefit of the doubt,” he said. “It was the same thing when Mark Wahlberg started acting. People were like, ‘What is he doing?’ But as he developed his acting technique, you see that he has gotten a lot more roles, a lot bigger roles, and he's been really good at it.”

Electric Denzel Washington disturbing in 'Training Day'
Trailers for Training Day raise a question. Is it a straight action movie, or is it a social commentary about street justice in the Los Angeles Police Department?
Little by little, it becomes evident that Training Day is more concerned with entertaining viewers than teaching them a poignant life lesson. Who's complaining?
Training Day is a wild, roller-coaster ride, and with Denzel Washington's magnificent, over-the-top performance, it's well worth the trip.
Commentary
PAMELA HENDRICKSON
The movie is a well-crafted thrill machine, charged with electricity. True, it won't change the world, but by movie's end, you might have to change your pants.
Brandon Stinnett
Movie Reviewer
jayplankyanan.com
Ethan Hawke, in a strong performance overshadowed by Washington, plays Jake Hoyt, a young cop chosen for an elite narcotics team. For training, Jake is placed in the care of veteran narcotics officer Alonzo Harris (Washington), who teaches him how to survive on the mean streets.
Jake reluctantly obliques and hallucinates for a while after taking a couple hits. He regains coherency in time to spot two street punks attempting to rape a young girl
Jake's first assignment: Smoke marijuana laced with PCP that was confiscated from a suspect. Alonzo says the only way to survive among the hooligans on the street is to act like them.
After a prolonged struggle, he apprehends the criminals, and secures them in handcuffs. But
instead of arresting the delinquents, Alonzo inflicts a fullfledge beat down and leaves them living in pools of blood.
When questioned about his unorthodox antics, Alonzo says they are necessary to rid the streets of the most dangerous criminals.
At first, Jake appears willing to conform to Alonzo's methods, but his conformity quickly fades as Alonzo continues to blur the line between justice and lawlessness.
Does making the big arrests justify any means of investigation regardless of legality? And is Alonzo really concerned with justice in the first place?
In the end, Jake is forced to choose between career aspirations and standing up for what he knows is right.
washington's Alonzo is a far cry from characters he has portrayed in movies like The Hurricane and Remember the Titans.
It's soon apparent that Alonzo is dangerous not only to society, but to Jake. He's the bad guy here, orchestrating a reign of terror and masquerading it as justice. He gets away with it because most of his victims are criminals.
Training Day could have been an effective expose on corrupt cops and shady investigative tactics in the Los Angeles Police Department.
Instead, director Antoine Fuqua gives us an energetic action movie, with lots of excitement and interesting characters. Washington's performance alone makes it worthwhile.

Training Day ★★★
★★★
Great movie of the week: Heat. Heat marks the first on-screen meeting between acting legends AI Pacino and Robert De Niro. It's an absorbing drama that chronicles the story of an obsessed cop's pursuit of a master criminal. Pacino and De Niro don't share much screen time, but when they do, it's pure movie magic.
Bad movie of the week: Me, Myself & Irene. Why this movie isn't funnier is beyond me. Peter and Bobby Farrell, the geniuses behind Dumb and Dumber and There's Something About Mary failed to deliver with this comedy, starring Jim Carrey and Renee Zellweger. There are a few laughs, but it is mostly one big disappointment.

Verve Pipe offers nothing new
'Underneath' has pop-drenched tunes, strong ending
By Jeff Hayes
Jayplay writer
There was no escaping the brooding alterna-anthem "The Freshman" in 1997 as it dominated radio airwaves and the billboard charts for months.
Since then, the Verve Pipe has been coasting on that monster hit single since its release, returning two years later for a self-titled follow-up album.
The band has reemerged with a freshly-coated pop sheen, presumably tailored for the new popdrenched millennium.
Underneath, the latest release,
certainly isn't a bad album.
Producer Adam Schlesinger's clean and lean production perfectly accentuates the catchy choruses and general pop sensibility demonstrated by the band's two songwriters, vocalist and guitarist Brian Van Ark and drummer Donny Brown.
Most of the songs are hookladen, radio-ready and easily hummable.
Yet it's eerily familiar.
The main problem here is that the Verve Pipe doesn't have a distinctive sound: Its mid-tempo approach could easily be a Fastball or Semisonic album.
Although the first four tracks are solid, the band's middle-of-the-road pop-rock cliché becomes wearying.
The melodies, while tuneful, never really stick to the roof of your skull like truly great poprock songs should.
It certainly helps when the band successfully branches out albeit only slightly — on the southern rock influenced "Happiness Is," the hard-rocking
"Medicate Myself" and the Zeppelinesque squawk of "Local Boys." Power ballads such as "Colorful" and "Gotta Move On" sound overwrought and ineffectual.
Fortunately, the album ends on a high note with the title track; a slightly spacey, gorgeous ballad that leaves you wishing that the rest of the album could live up to the promise shown only at its conclusion.
Underneath is the Verve Pipe's most commercial and accessible album to date, but it never steps over any of the well-defined boundaries of the pop-rock genre.
The band has definitely found a suitable producer in Schlesinger; all they need now is some inspiration.

There are hundreds available, all with an extra buzz attachment, G-spot earthquake promise or pleasure pusher plus. With all the differently sized, shaped and colored options, how can a confused, and maybe embarrassed, college student take the big step to buying a sex toy or even figuring out what toy to use to make playtime fun?
One of the more common toys is the vibrator. True to its name, the vibrator is the sex toy that goes buzz.
A vibrator can not only be a woman's best friend to be used during stressful times or on extrahorny nights, it can be a man's friend, too.
You can find vibrators in all different shapes, sizes and colors. Some are long and thin, like a wand, with a large head on the end that provides a wonderful buzzing sensation to specific places.
Others are shaped more like plastic penises, like a thicker wand, and produce a bigger sensation — along with a slightly louder humming sound.
Some vibrators are battery operated, some are plugged-in. Some are waterproof,some are not.
Some vibrators can be worn wherever and whenever with the help of a harness, and others come with attachments that will turn an average vibrator into the

ultimate stimulating machine.
Basically, with a little patience and some looking around, you can find the perfect vibrator.
Though it is best to shop for vibrators at a sex shop or a specialty Web site, they are sold at many drugstores and department stores. After all, everyone knows the lady on the box doesn't use that "muscle massager" on her calves only.
Although drugstore vibrators
do work, and some women swear by them, it is usually best to buy a brand-name vibrator (the ones sold at specialty stores or online). Check out Kansan.com for some vibrator-hunting links.
Although vibrators are used mainly by women for clitoral stimulation, they can be used to masturbate in many different ways. Inside, outside — play around to see what feels best.
For first-time vibrator users, it's best to use a vibrator made out of rubber or vinyl instead of the hard plastic variation. This provides a softer introduction to the world of bzzz.
Also, it's best to start experimenting on the lowest possible vibration level to keep from getting bruised by too-hard vibrations.
If plastic is the way you want to go, try wrapping the toy in a towel to decrease the vibrating sensations at first.
But, vibrators need not be limited to solo-only toys.
During sex, vibrators can add extra sensation, which can help stimulate a woman. After all, a guy only has one penis and can only do so much.
But girls are not the only ones getting good feelings out of the experience. The vibrations might feel pretty cool for both sexes on the inside, and what guy doesn't like being with a girl when she has an orgasm?
Vibrators also can be pretty handy helpers during foreplay
and oral sex for men and women. Try putting the vibrator under the tip of your tongue, or using it to stimulate other areas of the body. Let your imagination go!
Vibrators also are not for women only.
Guys seeking some extra-special feelings when masturbating also can benefit from the buzz of a vibrator.
Come on now, guys: If you ever had an erotic experience with any of Dad's vibrating tools, the washing machine or vacuum cleaner, you know what you've been missing.
There are even special vibrating sleeves made just for guys, but The Guide to Getting it On by Paul Joannides says many sleeves work about as well as some hand lotion and elbow grease. But, feel free to get inventive and give them a try — you might be surprised.
Just remember: Clean all sex toys after use. Wash them with soap and water (just don't submerge them, and be careful not to get water in the electronics), and sterilize them with rubbing alcohol or hydrogen peroxide.
With a little research, some patience and a little practice, vibrators can be a fabulous addition to any sex life, male or female, with company or alone.
All it takes is the flip of a switch and the urge to have fun.

Pressure 4-5 compresses poetry into hard rock
By David Cantrell Jayplay writer
Band to play with Alien Ant Farm at Granada Wednesday
Pressure 4-5 is breaking new ground as the band tours California and the Midwest promoting its sophomore album and first major label debut, Burning the Process.
Pressure 4-5 has what it takes to escalate hard rock to a new level.
DreamWorks released the album in stores Oct. 2 and the band hasn't begun to release the tension on competing hard-rock bands who have yet to make it big.
"We've just tried to exploit all
of our collective influences," said frontman Adam Rich.
Pressure 4-5 and Alien Ant Farm have a tour stop slated at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., on Wednesday.
The band originated in 1998 in Santa Barbara, Calif. from four guys who clicked in college. The original band members were Rich and guitarist Mark Barry.
Young people around the nation began to notice a new edge to hard rock after Pressure 4-5 sprang up on the OzzFest tour, crossed the country with Dredg, and began touring with Alien Ant Farm.
Joe Schmidt then added to the band's sound as a DJ before switching to guitar. Lyle McKeany stepped in on bass and Tom Schmidt, Joe's brother, joined to play drums.
Occasionally, when Joe Schmidt was spinning discs with
the band, he missed practices and disappeared. before shows because he lacked interest in his role in the band.
AdamRich DreamWorks frontman
His absence caused the number of band members to fluctuate from four to five; hence the name, Pressure 4-5.
"We all liked Joe so much and didn't want him to leave the band so we asked him to join in by playing guitar," Rich said. "It gave us a new chance to do more complex guitar pieces."
That's what the band has been doing since.
Pressure 4-5 goes against the entire process by nearly creating its own genre of music and philosophy. The album features illuminating lyrics, melodic rhythms and complex guitar tones.
"Born into fire ... Trained by our voices/Given one choice it's/Break the shell and move ahead," are lyrics to the song "Melt Me Down."
Words so poetic and powerful demonstrate that these artists aren't the typical hard rock band. They've managed to puzzle together crafty guitar chords and riffs with lyrics that push societal comfort zones.
"Melt Me Down' got inspired by the way people become individuals and how we push people out to be certain things." Rich said. "It's about not wanting to be typecast or stereotyped."

Students turn homecoming into a week of festivities
By Michelle Burhenn Kansan staff writer
What was once a simple weekend event has transformed into a weeklong celebration of KU spirit.
For the first time in recent years, weekend homecoming festivities took place all week, pumping up students for the homecoming game against the Oklahoma Sooners, said Leslie Heusted,homecoming chairwoman.
Heusted, said that about 15 students began meeting in February to plan the week. About eight to 10 student organizations were involved in the week's festivities.
"The enthusiasm and the interest has come from the students who wanted to make homecoming a longer and bigger event," she said.
Student Union Activities will sponsor SUA Tunes at Noon from noon to 1 p.m. today at the Kansas Union Plaza with a pre-parade pep rally following. A mural-painting contest will take place all day at the Kansas Union Plaza. The rally will feature KU jazz and spirit bands.
bands.
This afternoon all floats will be on display on the Allen Fieldhouse lawn from 4 to 7 p.m. The Jayhawk Spirit Sing, sponsored by the dean of students' office, will be before Late Nite with Roy Williams at Allen Fieldhouse. Entrants will sing original spirit songs. The winner will receive $1,000.
Winning parade entries will be on display tomorrow at Memorial Stadium before and during the football game. Murals will also be judged around 4 p.m.
Bill Heinen, Warner Robins, Ga. freshman, is experiencing his first KU homecoming as events chairman for the Association of University Residents Hall.
He said he became involved in homecoming because of the other students' enthusiasm.
and good luck." "When we were throwing cookies around on Wescoe Beach, everyone was really excited," he said. "It was just cool to see the spirit."

Freshmen as well as alumni will be involved in this weekend's festivities. The Class of 1961 and past Jayhawk mascots will meet for their reunions, said Donna Neuner, director of membership services for the Kansas University Alumni Association.

"The game itself, especially homecoming, causes local spending," she said. "It's a big weekend for this community; there's no doubt about that."

Parade to take on a new direction
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
When the homecoming parade begins today, it will run in the opposite direction from previous years
The homecoming parade, which begins at 2:30 p.m., usually goes down Jayhawk Boulevard toward the Kansas Union. However this year, the parade will begin at the Union and end at Allen Fieldhouse.
After the parade, the floats will be left on display in the front lawn of the fieldhouse where people may view them on their way to Late Nite with Roy Williams.
Kelly McNearney, homecoming committee chairwoman, said the change in direction would allow people to view the floats after the parade
For related stories see section B
"It was a way to incorporate the
homecoming football game, the parade and Late Nite with Roy Williams," the St. Louis junior said.
McNearney said 29 entries were in the parade this year from different student organizations, community groups and local businesses. McNearney said the groups entered banners, floats and decorated vehicles.
She said people discussed having the parade in downtown Lawrence. However, it wasn't feasible to close down roads during the day, McNearney said.
said the sorority was entering the float independently, not in a partnership with a fraternity.
Morgan Langstaff, St. Louis sophomore, said her sorority, Alpha Delta Pi, had worked on a float for four days. Unlike other entries, Langstaff
"I think it will add to the spirit of homecoming where we can leave them around for people to see," Langstaff said.
"Now we can have people walk out of class to stop by the parade rather than get in their cars and drive downtown," she said.
McNearney said she hoped people would watch the parade today and look at the floats on display tonight.
"I think 29 entries is a lot, and I think it's going to be better than years past," she said.
McNearney said if it rained tonight, the floats would be moved to the parking lot in front of Robinson Center.

Kansas ready for bio-terrorism doctors say
By Matt Norton Kansan staff writer
Watkins Memorial Health Center has a weapon in the fight against bio-terrorism.
Strother said the risk of an outbreak of the deadly disease at the University of Kansas was unlikely, despite reports that three people in Florida had been exposed to the anthrax bacterium.
Cheryl Hickert, nurse practitioner at Watkins is a member of the Army National Guard and served in the Gulf War. Hickert has received extensive training in treating victims of bio-terrorism and has shared that knowledge with everyone at Watkins, said Myra Strother, assistant director at Watkins.

Strother said several students had expressed concern about anthrax and had asked about the availability of antibiotics. She said that all doctors at Watkins had received training in bio-terrorism in medical school and had been studying the topic more since the attacks on Sept. 11.
the topic of Rich Federico, Hagerstown, Ind., law student, has family members who live on the Gulf Coast of Florida, directly west of the southeast Florida area where the anthrax outbreak occurred. He said news of the anthrax infections had not been cause for great concern to his family.

Water plant ups security in wake of Sept.11
By Meredith Carr and Grahm Winch Special to the Kansan
The day after last month's terrorist attacks, Andrea Buch's father told her to drink as little tap water as possible.
The Lyme, Conn., senior father was concerned about the safety of the drinking water, and his concerns are legitimate according to the FBI, the Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies and local water officials.
The association warned cities of possible terrorist attacks on water systems on Sept. 17 and asked those in charge of water and sewage plants to increase security measures.
"The only security we have are the operators locking the gates at night," said Charlie Gray, Clinton Water Treatment Plant manager. "We have started to close the gates at 4:30 p.m. instead of at 8 p.m., and we do random tests every two hours."
The plant pumps water two miles from Clinton Lake to West Lawrence, including to the University of Kansas campus. This provides on average nine million gallons of water in the summer and seven million gallons of water the rest of the year to residents every day.
year to At the plant, 2101 Wakarusa Drive, the gates typically remain open from 8 a.m. until 8 p.m. without a guard. The plant is undergoing expansion.
A portion of the chain-link fence that surrounds the building was torn down and replaced with bright orange plastic construction fencing. Atop the fence were three rows of barbed wire. Gray said it would be difficult to detect many of the possible chemicals or pathogens terrorists could use at his plant.
"Some chemicals, like arsenic, don't have a smell or taste, and I have 80,000 people counting on me every day." he said. "My kids and grandkids drink the water so I want it to be the best."
Gray said Lawrence water treatment plants

Bush warns of prolonged war in prime-time address
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Bush said last night "it may take a year or two" to track down Osama bin Laden and his terrorist network in Afghanistan but asserted that after a five-day aerial bombardment, "we've got them on the run."
At a prime-time news conference at the White House, Bush said he did not know whether bin Laden was dead or alive. "I want him brought to justice," he said of the figure believed behind the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington that killed 5,000 people one month ago.
one month ago.
Bush, at times forceful, emotional and funny, looked confidently beyond his war with the Taliban regime and suggested that the United Nations help rebuild Afghanistan with help from the United States. He warned other terrorist-harboring nations that they may be next, with an ominous nod to Suddam Hussein's Iraq.
sehf's Iraq.
"We're watching him very carefully," he said of Hussein, defeated by Bush's father in the Persian Gulf War. Some Bush advisers want to turn next against Hussein, whom the president called an "evil man."
Bush said that an FBI warning issued earlier in the day was the result of a "general threat" of
possible future terrorist acts the government had received.
At the same time, he sought to reassure Americans the government was doing all it could to make them safe.
"If we receive specific intelligence that targets a specific building or city or facility I can assure you our government will do everything possible to protect the citizens," he said.
possible to despite the aerial pounding, Bush held out a carrot to the Taliban rulers of Afghanistan harboring bin Laden.
harboring bin Laden. "You still have a second chance," Bush said. "Just bring him in and bring his leaders and lieutenants and other thugs and criminals with him."
Asked whether he envisioned expanding military action beyond Afghanistan to Iraq or Syria, Bush said that the United States would "bring to justice" nations that harbored terrorists. He said the administration had already had success rooting members of bin Laden's al-Qaida network from nations other than Afghanistan — a reference, aides said later, to terrorist arrests in France and Germany, among others.
"We're looking for al-Qaida cells around the world," Bush said, and if the United States finds any, it will pursue them.
Anthrax victim back at work

BOCA RATON, Fla. — One of the three supermarket tabloid employees who were exposed to anthrax returned to work yesterday while investigators awaited test results that might help them find the source of the bacteria that killed one of her co-workers.

Also waiting is the FBI. Bags of evidence from the building have been sent to a federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention laboratory in Atlanta for tests.
The three-story, 66,000-square-foot American Media building has been closed for 30 days, and hundreds of employees are awaiting test results to see if they've been exposed.
Dalley's neighbors said the case has made them more aware of their vulnerability.
"Everything that's happened so far in the last month is hitting closer and closer to me, and now it's right across the street," said Jason Tengberger, who lives three doors away from Dailey.
Heirs of Holocaust victims win $10 million in claims
WORLD
GENEVA — Heirs of Holocaust victims have received $10 million from a massive search of Swiss bank accounts dormant since World War II, an international tribunal said yesterday.
The settlement ended a four-year effort to satisfy claims by relatives of people who had deposited money in Swiss banks and later were killed by the Nazis.
There were successful claims for 207 accounts believed owned by people who became victims of the Holocaust, said the Claims Resolution Tribunal.
The tribunal of 17 arbitrators based in Zurich said it now was ready to turn its attention to helping a U.S. court distribute money from a $1,25 billion settlement between Swiss banks and Holocaust victims.

Mother avoids jail sentence after daughter dies in therapy
GOLDEN, Colo. — A woman pleaded guilty yesterday to child abuse in the death last year of her adoptive daughter during a "rebirthing" therapy session, letting the mother avoid a possible prison term.
Colorado has since outlawed the New Age form of therapy.
District Judge Jane Tidball ordered Jean Newmaker, 48, who lives in Durham, N.C., to be supervised by North Carolina authorities for four years. She must also complete 400 hours of community service and undergo grief counseling.
The 10-year-old girl was covered in blankets and pillows meant to simulate the womb and was encouraged to push her way out. Therapists hoped she would emerge "reborn" to bond with her adoptive mother. The girl died a day later of asphyxiation.

Lesbian student praises local support
LAURIFISK/KANSAN

Scotland junior finds comfort in activities of coming out week
Laura Hatwell, Stirling, Scotland, junior, a member of Queers and Allies, said Lawrence offered tremendous support for the queer community. Hatwell "came out" during Coming Out Week last year.
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
"I was tired of lying to myself," Hatwell said. "I woke up that day and just stopped caring about what people thought."
On that day, the junior film student from Stirling, Scotland, told her best friend, Heath, that she was a lesbian. He responded by telling her that he was gay.
Hatwell woke up yesterday on her one year "out- adversary" in a different country and feeling strange.
"It was a good kind of strange," Hatwell said. "It let me know I'm progressing and getting through life the way I want."
Hatwell, a member of Queers and Allies, has participated in the organization's National Coming Out Week and said she wished the gay community in Stirling had se
much pride.
"I never had a coming out week," she said. "This is the kind of thing I came here for."
Caitlin Giddings, Prairie Village senior and social officer for Queers and Allies, met Hatwell this semester through the organization.
"We're really excited about the Coming Out Week activities." Giddings said. "Laura is really enthusiastic about everything, especially queer activism and getting involved in the queer community."
"I had a massive crush on Tiffany," Hatwell said, in reference to the mall-rat singer who had a hit record with "I Think We're Alone Now."
But Hatwell said she had difficulty coming to grips
with her sexuality since she was four years old.
She said she couldn't figure out why she liked the singer so much, but during
"I tried to fight it off." Hatwell said. "I knew there was an LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transsexual) society at Stirling. I didn't go there because I was afraid."
her teen years, she lined her bedroom walls with boyband photos to suggest she was heterosexual.
However, a week after she came out, she met her partner, Sarah, at a gay social gathering.
"My mom tried to use religion against me," Hatwell said. "She was a closet Christian. She came out of the closet when I did."
But Hatwell's parents weren't as accepting of their daughter's public acknowledgment of her sexuality.
Giddings said that it was difficult for Hatwell to be overseas without much emotional support from her family.
Hatwell said that Lawrence was probably one of the best places to be gay because of its supportive community. It's truly a liberal oasis in a conservative desert, she said.
"But she's hopefully found some new, supportive friends here," Giddings said.
"I've gone down the right path," Hatwell said.

Man to be arraigned on charges of battery
By Michelle Burhenn Kansan staff writer
Arraignment for Howard Blaylock, who is charged with battery of an 18-year-old KU student, is set for Wednesday, Oct. 24, in city municipal court.
At that time, a trial date will be set, said Tom Porter, city prosecutor. Blaylock does not have a lawyer yet.

He repeatedly struck Michael Hauser, Gurnee, Ill., freshman, in the face at 4 a.m. Saturday in front of Oliver Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. The Public Safety Office said it was unknown if Blaylock was intoxicated, and Hauser suffered only minor injuries.
Hauser said Blaylock hit him in the face about 10 times before about five people from Oliver broke up the fight.
Hauser said he only realized he was injured when he could not eat food. He went to Watkins Memorial Health Center, which sent him to Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

Four KU students named finalists for national Truman Scholarships
Contact Burhenn at 864-4810
By Sarah Hill Special to the Kansan
Four KU students found out this week that they're one step closer to winning a Truman Scholarship worth $30,000.
Maureen Perry, Eden Prairie, Minn., junior; Derek Teeter, Oakley junior; and Rebekah Moses, Great Bend junior, were chosen as the KU nominees for the scholarship. Another nominee may be announced later this semester.
Institutions also are allowed to nominate a community college transfer student, which the University did for the first time this year. Johnson County Community College transfer Peter Freund, Olathe junior, who is working with Sen. Sam Brownback in Washington, D.C., this term, is also a nominee.
Deadlines to turn in applications for the most significant national scholarships, including the Truman, Rhodes and Fulbright scholarships, have already passed. The deadline for the Marshall scholarship applications is today, and the Goldwater scholarship deadline is Monday.
The University Honors Program administers most of the scholarships. The program's director, Barbara Schwen, said that several of the scholarships have a quota of students accepted from each college or university.
"They need to be officially endorsed by KU, so we have internal competitions to see who can go forward," Schowen said.
The Truman Scholarship application process is an example of the work it takes to compete on a national level.
This scholarship is open to juniors who are committed to careers in public service.
Applicants are required to submit a policy proposal with their application.
Teeter suggested that the Senate ratify a treaty that wouldn't allow states that use the death penalty to execute anyone younger than 18 years because some states don't have a minimum age.
"Juveniles aren't as culpable as adults are," said Teeter, who plans to one day become a prosecutor.
Usually, nine or 10 students apply for the scholarship at the University. Then applications are read, and students are invited for interviews. From that point, at least four students receive the University's approval and continue onto a regional competition.
"There are around 700 applications that are received nationwide," Schowen said.
A group of readers narrowse those nominees down to 250 finalists. These applicants are then granted regional interviews, and about 75 scholarships are awarded each year, Schowan said.
Karrigan Bork, Lawrence senior, won a Truman Scholarship last year. He said he was impressed with the quality of the other applicants.
Bork will graduate this year with a bachelor's of science in biodiversity, a bachelor's of arts in environmental policy and a minor in chemistry. He said he hoped to obtain a government internship before studying environmental law.
"It was really inspiring to meet other young people dedicated to their causes." Bork said.
The Truman Scholarship provides $3,000 for the senior year of study and $9,000 per year for three years of graduate study.
Rhodes and Marshall Scholarships focus on two years of graduate study in Great Britain, and Fulbright Scholarships cover almost all expenses for one academic year of study in the country of the applicant's choice.
Hodgie Bricke, assistant dean of International Programs and coordinator of Fulbright Scholarships at the University, said that about 20 KU students apply each year to the national competition for international graduate study.
Five to nine KU students win each year on average, Bricke said, and 357 have won Fulbright Scholarships since 1949.
Fulbright applicants must present a proposal directed at research in a specific country. More than 100 countries support these scholarships through bilateral agreements with the United States.
Students with a bachelor of science or equivalent degree are eligible for this scholarship.
"About three-quarters of this year's candidates are graduating seniors, and the others are graduate students," Bricke said.
For more information on these scholarships, contact the Honors Program at 864-4225 or the Office of International Programs at 864-6161.

Their resumés are impressive: fraternity president, program director for Mentors in the Lives of Kids, co-director for the Center for Community Outreach and Jubilee Cafe coordinator.
The resumés belong to seniors Robert McKenney, Clinton, Mo., and Anneliese Stoever, Overland Park, who will both receive Ex.C.E.L. awards at tomorrow's football game.
Rachel Cornish, vice president of University Relations, said both were deserving of the award, which stands for excellence in community, education and leadership. The award is annually given to two KU students — one male and one female — by the University homecoming committee, Student Union Activities and the Board of Class Officers.
McKenney and Stoever will each receive $500 from the Board of Class Officers and will help plan the Blueprints conference, which is a workshop for KU student leaders that takes place in February. The two were chosen
from 10 finalists and an original pool of 30 contestants.
Cornish said the award began 10 years ago when the board of class officers and SUA noticed awards existed for education and leadership but few also included community service.
"They felt an award was needed to recognize these people," she said.
Dawn Grier, Wichita senior, lives with Stoever and agreed that she needed recognition for her efforts.
"This year I haven't had achance to see her much," Grier said. "She's so busy with CCO (Center for Community Outreach). She's there all of the time."
Stoever said one of the most gratifying activities she had participated in since coming to the University was an alternative spring break when she went to New York to help with after-school programs in the Bronx. She said poverty was the same whether in New York, Kansas City or Lawrence.
"It was amazing," she said. "Just to hear the kids talking about how they were scared to go home."
McKenney said he enjoyed the LeaderShape
program last year. The program is sponsored by the Department of Student Housing and is meant to equip students with leadership skills while emphasizing teamwork, integrity and ethics.
"It helps you develop a vision," McKenney said. "I just found it a place to really find out who I was and what I was trying to accomplish."
McKenney said after graduation he wanted to become a traveling consultant for his national fraternity and go to graduate school before teaching high school chemistry.
Stoeover reacted to the prize money as many students would. First she thought she might blow it on a shopping spree, but later she changed her mind.
Stoever said she wanted to donate half the money to the Multicultural Resource Center for a diversity retreat taking place Friday, Nov. 16. She encouraged students to donate money not only to the terrorist attack victims but also to local charities.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear editor.
Deal editor.
The recent article on the threat to KU posed by Washburn University's community college transfer program was informative and inadvertently amusing. To see KU (with some 25,000 students) somehow threatened by the actions of Washburn (with about 6,800 students) was heartening.
However, the article was somewhat misleading. One sentence states that Washburn was "given" funds beginning in 1991 from the Kansas Board of Regents. It is more accurate to state that Washburn was recognized by the State Legislature as a vital component of Kansas higher education, and was granted more funds.
As of the year 2000, Washburn receives about 19 percent of its budget from the State of Kansas, not the Board of Regents, as opposed to the nearly 100 percent received by KU; no KU money is going to Washburn.
Additionally, Washburn operates at a small profit each year — can KU say the same? We do what we do very efficiently. We have a student-professor ratio of 9:1 in our biology department, and that ratio is common across campus. Our medical school acceptance rate for biology graduates is nearly 100 percent. Can KU say the same? So the next time that the Kansan wishes to bash our university, please keep the facts in mind. On the other hand, the fact that KU feels threatened by Washburn means we're doing a darned good job here at Washburn!

A stranger in a strange land finds we are the same inside
I knew the world had changed the first time I entered my apartment in Paris. A woman was cleaning a shelf, and I startled her.
and started to speak.
"Oh, je regrette," I began to apologize in what I thought was a keen French accent. It was my first true encounter with a native Parisian during my semester abroad.
"No, no — you are American?" she asked.
"Yes."
"I am very sorry. You are OK? When I hear of the attacks, I say to my daughter, 'Get on your knees,' and we prayed," she said, folding her hands in a reverent gesture, little more than a week after the September terrorist strikes.
I saw in her eyes that she, like people around the world, had been sincerely moved. I imagined tears flowing into New York harbor and swimming the Atlantic to be cried all over again.
Recent events have altered the global community, and in doing so have altered a semester for the 23 University of Kansas students studying humanities and Western civilization in Europe.
and western coasts.
We were divided by the attacks.
About half the group had departed in early September to travel before classes began in Paris, while the rest of us awaited our group flight, scheduled for Sep. 12. Until Sep. 11.
Our departure for Paris was delayed one day, then two days, then five, then indefinitely, while harried Office of Study Abroad employees and travel agents risked dialing the skin right off

tneir fingertips, I sighed when I unlocked my luggage, packed with care in anticipation of the program for which I'd worked, saved, planned throughout much of my college career. As classes began without us in Paris, I dealt with my frustration at being trapped by remembering the blessing of being alive.
When we left one week late, effects on the program appeared minimal: two students had dropped out, Descartes had been cut from the syllabus, trips to the Louvre and Chartres had rescheduled, and a mountain of catch-up reading awaited us on the other side of the ocean.
Upon arrival, though, the true impact on our semester was revealed: Meeting the group already in Europe, we found students who seemed somehow different from us.
I suspect, though, that the semester's greatest lesson has already been learned: When tragedy befalls humanity, all of us—students abroad, students at home, French cleaning ladies—cry the same tears.
The New People, as we were known at first, tried to explain to the Old People the state of things at home, as many of them struggled with their isolation. They had been drinking good wine in a beautiful city, but they had missed that gust of solemn pride and buzzing community that swept the nation in the wake of the attacks. They hadn't seen family and friends or attended the emotional assembly at the Lied Center or witnessed the onslaught of U.S. flags decorating their homeland. Still, they too had cried. I was sad for them, and I was glad my flight had been delavel
Now, we are no longer the New People and the Old People but one group who has shared experiences that come once in a lifetime. Here in France, a country more experienced than the United States in dealing with terrorist threats, soldiers armed with machine guns dot the subway, the sidewalks, the shopping centers, the airports. One of my peers was evacuated from the subway in the midst of a bomb scare. We were asked to register individually with the U.S. Embassy in Paris, and we receive briefings on the state of affairs, as well as warnings not to "look American." Being inconspicuous on the Metro is no longer a matter of blending in with oh-so-quiet-and-cool Parisians but a matter of safety.
For the most part, though, no one is scared, and life goes on; we eat cheese and read Mill and go to class.

What do you mean by "gay?"
The English language provides us with 40,000 words, and yet the best we can come up with to describe any person or situation we don't like is "gay." You spill your coffee. That's gay. The bookstore delays your order. That's gay. Somebody scratches your car in the parking lot. That's so gay. Are we homophobic or just lazy?
Let's say a bunch of high school football players (paragons of masculinity who slap each other's butts every chance they get) are sitting around a locker room. One walks across the room in a slightly effeminate manner. Another says, "Dude, quit acting so gay!" (The stereotype is that all gay men are effeminate, or vice versa.) This roughly translates to, "Quit acting in a manner that I don't like and/or that makes me uncomfortable." At this point, the word gay still has some connection with homosexuality, albeit a bigoted one.
The next day, this same group of friends is eating lunch. One spills his tray on another. "Dude, that was gay!" Again, this translates to, "This is bad." But now, the word has no connection with homosexuality. Soon, everybody says it.

"I've heard people say it that I know don't have a problem with homosexuals," said Curtis Dixon, Kansas City, Kan., junior and KU Queers & Allies member. "I've even heard gay people say it."
say it.
John Roth, director of Q&A, said that "fag" is another word that has lost its meaning. He recounted an experience in high school, when a group of students who didn't know he was gay keyed *fag* onto his car. Apparently, keying "Person we don't like," which is what they meant, would have been too much work.
"Prejudice begins with language," Roth said. Roth said that after he told his high school friends that he was gay, they would continue to say gay whenever they didn't like something. But they would also express guilt and try to explain themselves: "Oh, John, when I said gay just then, I didn't mean that I have a problem with gays." Why not
just say what you mean and save the breath?
But Roth pressed his friends, and eventually broke them of the habit. He said he now has heterosexual friends tell him about other things using the word gay. Roth's friends talk about how unnecessary it is.
"It's such a convenient word to use," Roth said. He's right. It's easier to throw out a syllable than it is to explain why we don't like something. So the current usage of gay has something to do with laziness, but it also has something to do with homophobia.
The meanings of words change all the time. If gay becomes synonymous with bad, then so be it. From a linguistic standpoint, one syllable is as good as another. But, at least for now, the word gay still means homosexual. If we use gay to mean bad, we inevitably associate the two and we unfairly stigmatize homosexuals.
If you don't have a problem with gay people and this is not your intention, then simply choose your words more carefully. Say what you mean. The bigots and homophobes will get along just fine without your help.

Spiders are on the move
By Kyle Ramsey and Caitlin Sullivan
Special to the Kansan
With cooler weather approaching, students should be on the lookout as recluse spiders find their way indoors.
Thermes lepidoptera.
Chris Hobson, Overland Park junior, knows about the danger firsthand. A brown recluse spider bit Hobson last summer. The brown recluse, one of only six poisonous spiders in North America, is common to Kansas.
The skin surrounding Hobson's bite changed colors, so he went to the doctor. After several months, Hobson can still see scars.
"I went to bed like any other night," Hobson said. "When I woke up, my left arm was feeling sore."
Jim McDonald, an exterminator with Advanced Pest Management Inc., said the brown recluse population increased in Lawrence, but it didn't necessarily mean more bite cases.
DeAnn Schoenfeld, Douglas County Health Department nurse, said the bites should be

treated by a doctor.
"The bite destroys cells and the tissue sloughs off, leaving a hole at the site of the bite." Schoenfeld said.
Schoenfeld said the severity of the bite depended on the amount of venom injected by the spider and the immunity of the person bitten. Symptoms of a brown recluse bite include restlessness, chills, nausea and fever-like symptoms. Symptoms can begin immediately or take as long as

Brown recluse spiders live in the dark and dry areas of people's homes, such as the attic, according to Kansas State Research and Extension. Dirty clothing and towels left lying on the floor are common habitats for these pests.
The brown recluse spider has a dark, violin-shaped marking on the front part of its back, which identifies it from other types of spiders.

Strother said Watkins had been in contact with state and local health authorities and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. As soon as any suspicious cases come to Watkins, members of those units would assist Watkins in testing potential carriers of the disease and dispensing medicine, she said.
she said.
Hickert said anthrax came from a bacterium that occurred naturally in dirt and was often carried by hoofed animals. Humans can contract the bacteria through skin contact or by eating the meat of infected animals. But these types of infection are easy to control with antibiotics, Hickert said. She
said the disease was fatal only if the bacteria had been inhaled.
"It's not a new threat," she said. "It's just been getting a lot of press now because of the case that showed up in Florida."
Hickert said students should report any unusual health problems to Watkins and educate themselves about biological warfare. She suggested visiting the CDC site at www.cdc.org and a military site on anthrax at www.anthrax.osd.mil.
Hickert said that if Americans educated themselves and did not panic about bio-terrorism, they would thwart one of the main goals of terrorists.
"Their goal is to incite fear and chaos." Hickert said. "The best way to do that is to make us afraid to live out lives the way we have been."

Cats guarded for Halloween
By Lauren Beatty and Janet Mason Special to the Kansan
With recent cases of animal abuse making the news, the Lawrence Humane Society has suspended adoption of all black cats during the last week of October.
"The 21st on Sunday, we'll stop adopting out black cats until the first of November," said Midge Grinstead, executive director of the Lawrence Humane Society.
Grinstead made the decision when she took charge at the shelter in 1997 because of the coincidence of Halloween activities and deaths of black cats.
Last year, a man came into the shelter around Halloween and asked to adopt a black cat numbered 666 on its cage, Grinstead said.
When the staff changed the number to 667b the man didn't want to adopt the cat any more, she said.
The shelter now has a policy of never using the number 666 — a sign of the devil in the Revelations chapter of the Bible — to
Grinstead said she thought two black cats brought in last year around Halloween had been sexually assaulted.
label animals.
"The cats had fractured hips, and it was obvious they had been sexually abused by people." Grinstead said.
She said two to five people ask to adopt black cats around Halloween every year. Grinstead said if people were insistent on adopting a cat during the holiday, she would call their veterinarian and check credentials. If they didn't have a veterinarian, they could not adopt, she said.
Grinstead said with all the history surrounding black cats, it was important for pet owners to keep their cats indoors and away from strangers on Halloween night.
Petshops in town continue to sell black cats during Halloween. Jackie Wigington, an employee of Pet World, 711 W. 23rd St., said black cats were in high demand during the entire year, not just around Halloween.
"Anyone we're not sure about, we won't sell to." Jackie Wigington Employee of Pet World
"Anyone we're not sure about, we won'tsell to," Wigington said.
June Mecham, graduate teaching assistant in women's studies, teaches a class titled "From Goddesses to Witches: Women in Premodern Europe" and said black cats had an association with witches.
"The association with black cats reflects a long tradition in Europe of associating black with evil, night and all the fears that surround that," she said. "The association with the cat seems to stem from the belief that the cat represented mystery and had a sixth sense."

"Every year there are about 80 new regulations from how often we're supposed to test the water, to the chemical levels allowed in the water," he said. "I just feel bad for smaller towns that don't have the money in the budget to stay within the bounds of technology."
Steve Randtike, professor of civil engineering and environmental health, said it would be difficult to poison a large supply of water with chemical or biological agents.
"It could be done with proper training and resources though," he said. "Our water is a vulnerability; however, we need to keep the perspective that this is not the only weakness we have. On a national level people have taken steps to ensure safety."
dents may be worried. John Olson, general manager of Hy-Vee, 3504 Clinton Parkway, said sales of bottled water were up since the terrorist attacks. The store is not allowed to give out specific information about how much sales have increased.
Randtke and Gray both said if Lawrence water were poisoned, the water plant had emergency procedures it would follow and warnings would be issued to residents.

"The process of resident protection is to flip a switch, drain the basins and start all over." Gray said. "Lawrence is fortunate because it has two plants. One gets water from a lake while the other's source is the Kansas River."

Police department displaying new digs to public
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence Police' Department is showing off its new home, the Investigations and Training Center, 4820 W.15th St., from 4 to 6 p.m. today.
The center opened the first week of June, said Sgt. Mike Pattrick. It is the home of 40 full-time officers.
The building is about 14,000 square feet, twice the size of the police department at the Law Enforcement Center, 111 E 11th St. It houses the department's new training facility, detectives, the criminal analysis unit and the drug enforcement unit, all of which were in the original building.
Professional Service Industries, based in Lombard, Ill., owned the property until the city purchased it in October 1999.
Penny Construction renovated the building for the department
The Law Enforcement Center downtown also is under renovation.
Champion Builders, of Topeka, is the general contractor for that project.
Kenny Hartter, project manager, said construction began Feb. 5 and completion was expected around June 1, 2002.
The renovations include a two story addition with a basement to add more office space for the Lawrence Police Department.
Patrick said the new office space would be given to patrol supervisors. In the past, all supervisors shared one office. After renovation is complete, each supervisor will have a separate office.
Patrick said that the relocation of certain departments
opened up existing space within the building that would be used to expand the divisions that remain downtown: the records office, the patrol unit, the evidence division and inquiries/complaints/internal affairs.
Patrick said that having the department housed in two separate buildings shouldn't create any problems.
any project.
"There will be logistic challenges to it," he said. "But the added benefits of more workspace far outweigh the challenges."
Citizens can go to either building to file a report, Pattrick said, but the downtown center is the only one open 24 hours a day.

Speaker urges understanding
By Luke Daley
Kansan staff writer
Two University of Kansas alumni are adjusting to life after witnessing the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. David Wilson and Carlos Tejada, 1996 and 1997 graduates, had moved to New York City to pursue their careers.
Wilson, a defense attorney for the New York City Law Department, said that he was supposed to get his picture taken with New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani two blocks from the World Trade Center on Sept. 11.
He said he had just gotten off the subway that morning when he heard the first plane hit the World Trade Center.
"I thought it was a subway crashing into another subway," said Wilson, a former reporter and editor for The University Daily Kansan.
When he reached the street across from the WTC towers, he
saw the result of the first airplane collision.
"I saw a smoking black object lodged in the building." Wilson said.
He realized the severity of what was happening after he had left his office building with other co-workers and heard a second "muffled boom."
Carlos Tejada, a former Kansan staff reporter, said that it was a good thing he didn't have to be at the Wall Street Journal that day. Instead he was packing for a vacation with his fiancée. His office building at the One World Financial Center, a building that he said would be quarantined until January because of excessive ash and other damage, is located caddy-corner to the WTC complex.
Tejada and his fiancée, Nora Sommers, looked outside his Brooklyn, N.Y., apartment window on Sept. 11 when he heard that the World Trade Center had
been hit by an airliner. From there, he said he witnessed both buildings engulfed in smoke and flames.
Sommers, who graduated from the University in 1997 from the School of Fine Arts, said that the attack took place only two miles from her and Tejada.
"All we had to do was look out of our bedroom window and see the two buildings on fire," Sommers said.
Since the attacks, Tejada said he and other Wall Street Journal employees had worked out of their homes and in a back-up newsroom in New Jersey.
Tejada said that a constant reminder of the terrorist attacks can be felt in New York whenever the wind shifts.

"It smells like burnt plastic," Tejada said. "I don't think that people outside of New York are aware of that."

Jose Ramos-Horta, 1996 winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, told about 500 people last night at the Kansas Union Ballroom that no country can stand by itself.
"We are all one humanity, one human race," he said. "Some have a nicer tan than others. That's the only difference between human beings."
He said this applied to the United States' role in international politics, especially in light of the Sept. 11 attacks.
right of the people
A native of East Timor, Ramos-Horta spoke out for his country's freedom, first from Portugal and then Indonesia. Despite being exiled from East Timor before Indonesia invaded the country in 1975, he continued to act as a spokesman for human rights and self-determination.
Likewise, Ramos-Horta said he supported limited intervention by the United States in Afghanistan, but he admitted he was uncomfortable.
"When we are confronted with the dilemma of war and peace, of freedom and tyranny, it is always disturbing to us," he said. "But we must always ask, 'What is the alternative?'"
Karen Keith, Tulsa, Okla., junior, said she admired Ramos-Horta's attitude.
"I thought he was very practical, completely unpretentious," she said.

SAFERIDE'S SIDE
Employees of the popular shuttle service defend its value to the sober and the sloshed — and a Kansan reporter sees things for herself. Story by Sarah Zaman
Patrick Harper, Mankato senior and Saferide driver, picks up Shenna Englem (middle), Chicago freshman and Rory Flynn (left), St. Louis freshman, from the Cadillac Ranch, 2515 W. Sixth St., Wednesday night. Drivers said it could be tough to work late nights.
A SAFE PURPOSE
After three phone calls and an interview, Wayne Pope's hesitation melted into pride.
"Everybody thinks Saferide is a tipsy taxi, but that's not the purpose of it," he said.
Owner of the Lawrence Bus Company, Pope took over Saferide from a taxi service in 1993. The service offers students daily transportation to their homes from 11 p.m. to 3 a.m.
"When I was young, there was no one to provide a designated driver. You just took your chances," Pope said. "Yes, we drive people from parties, but we also give people rides late at night so they do not have to walk."
But some students abuse
Saferide, Pope said.
"We're providing a service. You got a rule and you try to break it," he said. "That is what college is about. I understand that. But I won't put up with loud, inebridated students bothering my drivers."
Butthrowing is not much of a problem, said Glenn Stottlemi, night supervisor.
“Fortunately, this year we’ve only had three people puke,” he said. Sometimes the drivers clean it up, but “once in a while, I clean up the puke. It’s good for morale.” Stottlemire said.
Gregor Brune, Saferide driver, said riders were usually kind.
for you next time.' Then you never see them again.'
"I've never had a belligent drunk," he said. "They're usually pretty happy and say things like, 'You're my favorite Saferide driver. I'm going to ask
Sandra McCann, who receives calls and assigns drivers to a destination, said callers generally were courteous when she spoke to them.
"I've only been cussed out twice," she said.
Greg Smith, Saferide driver,
said his job was better when
people showed gratitude.
Then "you don't mind the late night and the tired days," he said.
Glenn Stottlemire (right), night supervisor for the Lawrence Bus Company, and Greg Smith (left), Kansas City, Kan., senior and Safe Ride driver, discuss their strategy before beginning the night shift. Saferide uses two to seven cars each night.
By the time Saferide drivers head home at 3.30 a.m., sleep becomes a valuable commodity.
"I wake up at 8, and usually catch naps in Anschutz between classes," Smith said. He works three consecutive nights a week and compares his work schedule to having jet lag.
"Tuesday is worst because I have to get readjusted," he said. "I'm OK. I drink a couple of Cokes. You get used to it. It's cramming life between school."
Brune works five nights a week, has a day job and attends class on Tuesdays.
"I'm starting to feel a little burned out, and thinking about being a bus driver instead," he said.
For Stottlemire, sleep is a three-hour event from 4:30 to 7 p.m.
p.m.
"I have a 9-month baby," he explained. "My wife works days and I work nights. This way, we don't have to worry about day care. I never thought I would be able to work like this, but you have to do what
EN-KAE CHANG/KANSAN
you have to do.
"You know the saying,
'Necessity is the mother of invention.' Well, I like to say,
'Necessity is the mother of ability'
he said.
REPORTER RIDE-ALONG
Saferide drivers convene and disperse every night to lead the vagrant and grocery sack-toting to the safety of their abodes. Because Saferide is so popular Thursday through Saturday nights, I was granted a ride-along on a less, uh, traditionally happenin' evening.

12:03 a.m. — Arrive at the ominous-looking Eldridge Hotel. Peggy's too cold to ride her moped. We discuss Jim Morrison and rock stars all the way home.
As she exits the car, Peggy shows me the correlation between women and rock stars. "If you can't beat 'em, sleep with them." It's power, she says. I'm not feeling the magic anymore.
12:17 a.m. — Back at base, the night is slow. The drivers reconvene. We discuss the meaning of life and how to change majors. It's time to go to bed, but there's two hours left.

Emmys may air at new location
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The show may go on for the twice-postponed Emmy Awards, and a military base is among the new locations being proposed for the ceremony, award show sources said Tuesday.
CBS and the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences are working on a plan for a ceremony to air before the end of the year, although details remain unsettled, the sources said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
A wide variety of plans are under consideration, including one that would turn the TV ceremony into entertainment for troops at a California military base, the sources said. It was unclear whether military cooperation had been sought yet.
Other settings such as hotel ballrooms also were being weighed by Emmy organizers. A taped, packaged version of the ceremony that is traditionally
broadcast live was among the ideas floated.
Some in the industry are jittery about taking part in a ceremony at a visible and well-known landmark like the Shrine Auditorium. Officials are looking for a location and format that will allow participants to feel secure, one academy source said. The academy's executive committee was to meet yesterday to discuss further plans.
The Emmys were called off Sunday — hours before the Shrine ceremony was to air on CBS — after the United States and Britain launched air attacks on Afghanistan. The show already had been postponed from its original Sept. 16 air date because of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Network and academy officials declined to comment on the awards' future Tuesday.
Both CBS and the TV academy have much at stake. The network,
which has paid a license fee of more than $3 million to the academy for the telecast, stands to lose advertising revenue if a show doesn't air.
The academy relies on the license fee and ticket sales for a substantial portion of its annual budget.
At a news conference Sunday, CBS Television President Leslie Moonves and academy chairman Bryce Zabel said they were respecting the majority opinion in the industry that Sunday's show should be called off.
There had been dissent about whether the awards should have be taken place in the aftermath of the East Coast terrorist attacks. Many stars are now reluctant to attend, Moonves said. The academy and CBS had tried to quell concerns by cutting back on the ceremony's glamour and including tributes to terrorism's heroes and victims.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN QA
Running standout to return
Gruber to compete in first meet since his foot injury
By Matt Norton Kansan sportswriter
Charlie Gruber said he didn't know what to expect this weekend at the Chill Pepper Cross Country Festival in Fayetteville, Ark.
The senior, who qualified individually for the NCAA Championships last season, will race tomorrow for the first time since developing a stress fracture in his foot this summer. He said he had been doing some form of training since August, but he was still not up to normal workout schedule.
"Every workout, I'm closing the gap on the top guys." Gruber said. "Right now the learning curve is very sharp in terms of getting back in shape. But the other guys are just continuing to get better as well."
Gruber and assistant coach Doug Clark said it was OK if Gruber wasn't at top speed this weekend.
Clark reiterated that point to
Gruber and teammate Mark Menefee as they sat and stretched after practice Wednesday afternoon. Menefee will also return to action this weekend.
"You have to be at 100 percent on Nov. 10 — that's the day," Clark said, referring to the Jayahwks' trip to Carbondale, Ill., for the Midwest Regional Championships.
Senior Brian Blachly, who rooms with Gruber and Meneefe, said it had been tough not having his teammates competing with him this season.
"You come back home from a race and they weren't at the meet to talk about how it went," Blachly said. "You can tell it bothers them."
Gruber said that if the injury had happened earlier in his career, it might have had more of a negative effect. Even though his weekly mileage run is down to the mid-50s rather than the usual low-70s, Gruber said his experience helped lessen the negative effects.
Still, he said he had been eager to attack his training at full strength. In a sport where the athletes are aware of how important each day of training is, Gruer said it had been difficult to be conservative.
"Every workout I'm closing the gap on the top guys."

"I've been writing in my training log (that) one of my goals each week is to stay patient," Gruber said.
Clark said the athletes had bought into the training system he had brought to Kansas, helping Gruber and Meneefe stay calm and focused as the season moves into its championship phase.
"If I'm telling them that they're going to be okay by the middle of November, they believe it," Clark said. "I'm not saying they're not a little nervous about it, but it's nothing out of control."

Competition offers chance for berth to NCAA Championship
Runners on the Kansas cross country team want to make a statement at the Chili Pepper Cross Country Festival tomorrow in Favetteville, Ark.
Cross Country looks to qualify
By Matt Norton Kansan sportswriter
The first criterion for qualifying as an at-large team is victories against top teams from other regions.
The men are ranked ninth and the women tenth in the Midwest region this week and want to use this meet to qualify for an at-large berth for the NCAA Championships. The Chili Pepper is a perfect meet for the team to attempt this because of the number of top teams participating from around the country.
Senior Charlie Gruber, who will run his first race this season at Arkansas, said the Jayhawks wanted to use this meet as a springboard to success at the Big 12 Conference and Midwest regional meets later this fall.
hope of going to nationals, and this yearit's an expectation," Gruber said. "Our whole team is excited and working toward a common goal."
"Before, we used to have a
Senior Mark Menegee will also make his first appearance of the season. He hasn't raced since an indoor track meet last December because of various injuries. Menegee said he had a lot of work ahead to be at his best for the regional meet and help get the Jayhawks to the national championship meet but said he thought he could contribute right away.
"We're really excited to see what this team can do this weekend." Menefee said. "I'm definitely in good enough shape to help the team out this week."
Assistant coach Doug Clark said both teams ran well at Arkansas last season. He said the men ran faster through the first eight kilometers of the 10-kilometer race at Arkansas than they did in any eight-kilometer race all year. The women were faster through five kilometers in the six-kilometer race than any five-kilometer performance all year.
Clark said having everyone healthy for the first time this season would boost the team physi

continue to be a big adjustment for them," Clark said. "They're so competitive that I have to really watch that they don't overdo it. In fact, I made them take two mandatory rest days this week."
Senior Courtney Deutsch said she wanted to finish as one of the top-four Jayhawks and set a personal best. If the team ran aggressively and together and pushed one another early in the race, she said that wouldn't be a problem.
Deutsch said the team wasn't concerned about the lack of racing opportunities early in the season or that this race was longer than their previous two races.

Soccer team to battle struggling foes
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
With the season approaching its halfway mark, coach Mark Francis and the Kansas soccer team are poised to make a run at top three finish in the Big 12 Conference.
"We've got six conference games left," said Francis, whose team is tied with Oklahoma for third place in the Big 12. "For us to finish in the top three or four, we need to win at least four of those games. That would make us 7-3 in the conference. Historically, that would put us in the top three. I think to give ourselves a good shot for the NCAA tournament, that needs to be our goal."
The Jayhawks (7-3, 3-1) continue their conference schedule at 4 p.m. today with a game at Texas Tech. They conclude the weekend on Sunday with a 1 p.m. game at Colorado.
Texas Tech comes into today's game with a 3-9 overall record and a cellar-dwelling 0-
4 conference mark. The Red Raiders played Wednesday night, defeating West Texas A&M 1-0 in a non-conference match.
After the matchup in Lubbock, Texas, Kansas will travel to Boulder, Colo., to take on another struggling Big 12 team. The Buffaloaes (1-7-1, 0-3-1) lost 4-0 to Oklahoma on Sunday. They showed a flash of brilliance on Sept. 30, playing No. 10 Texas A&M to a 2-2 tie. But Colorado's season has been a disappointment otherwise.
With the Jayhawks favored for both of its contests this weekend, coach Mark Francis said he had discussed with his squad the problem of playing down to the opponent's level.
"We've had a little bit of a problem with that, to this point," he said. "We had a meeting and addressed that."
The games this weekend mark the last road games of the regular season for Kansas. The Jayhawks finish the season with six home games before the
Big 12 tournament.
"We've put ourselves in a great situation." Francis said. "It's kind of like building a house. We've bought the land, we've built the foundation. We haven't built the house yet. The season could be wasted if we don't finish the job."
Notes
If the Jayhawks come away with two victories this weekend, it will give them nine for the season, a team record.
Kansas' match with St. Louis University, originally scheduled for Sept. 14, has been rescheduled for 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 30 at Super Target Field. The game was postponed after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Kansas has a 3-2 all-time record against Texas Tech, having beat the Red Raiders last season 1-0 at Super Target Field. The Jayhawks are 2-5 against Colorado. They lost to the Buffaloes 1-0 last year.

Weekend regatta to be competition among the ranks
By Brent Wasko
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas rowing team is looking forward to facing some tough competition this weekend—itself.
Coach Rob Catloth said his team prepared for Sunday's American Royal Fall Rowing Classic in Kansas City, Kan., like any regular race, but the regatta would actually be more of a scrimmage for the Jayhawks.
Kansas will battle Kansas State, Tulsa and 11 club teams,
including Nebraska and St. Louis. To make the regatta more interesting, Catloth said he decided to divide his team into four boats: a freshman crew, sophomore crew, junior crew and Canadian crew. The team's seniors are separated among the boats.
"I know there is not going to be too much competition at the regatta, so we're having a little intra-team rivalry, "Catloth said. "The fall season is more about watching how the rowers develop their technique than about the races. The
results are not that important to me."
Senior Dana Parsons said the Kansas City regatta would be the first time the team's upperclassmen had the opportunity to meet the freshman. The experienced and novice rowers practice at different times.
"This time of year is a real bonding time for us," Parsons said. "It's our chance to prove something for our class and talk it up in the practice. This is a really fun race."
Catloth said the fall season
was important for more than just developing team unity. He said he was beginning to find the best combination of rowers for the varsity boats that would compete in the spring. However, he said the varsity spots wouldn't be decided until after winter break.
"It's always a continual evaluation," he said. "We're starting to separate the team out more, but I'm basing a lot of my stuff by what they are doing on the rowing machines. I have to watch them compete."
would probably field its best team for the regatta. He said K-State was planning to make a trip to a large regatta in Boston
Catloth said Kansas State
Jenn Jewett, vice president of the Kansas City Rowing Club, said Sunday's regatta was her organization's biggest fund-raiser. Each participating team must pay to enter. The proceeds are used to buy rowing equipment for high school students in the Kansas City area.

Players hope Late Nite force will wow three recruits
By Ryan Malashock Kansan sportswriter
Kansas senior Jeff Carey won't be around next season, but he stressed the importance of putting on a show at Late Nite with Roy Williams for the players that might soon take his place.
"Late Nite is a huge night for recruiting," Carey said. "I, personally, didn't come to Late Nite when I was a senior, but a lot of the guys on this team came to Late Nite and committed because of their experience there."
With three open scholarships to give this signing season and no commitments as of yet, tonight's festivities could bring a turning point for Kansas recruiting.
Jeff Graves, a 6-foot-9 forward from Iowa Western Community College, Moulage Niang, a 6-10 forward/center from El Cajon, Calif., and Kevin Bookout, a 6-8 forward from Stroud, Okla., all will attend Late Nite tonight.
Kansas has traveled down a lengthy road in recruiting Graves. Kansas was one of the first schools to recruit him and has been considered the front runner by many analysts throughout the
recruiting process.
Still, the jayhawks remain in a fight for Graves' services.
Graves enjoyed his visit to Illinois last weekend and is still considering Missouri, Long Beach State and Louisville.
Trent Lovewell, Graves' assistant coach at Iowa Western, said this weekend's visit could be the determining factor for Graves.
"He's going to KU this weekend, and after that it depends on what he will do," Lovewell said. "If he likes it, who knows what will happen. I know he wants to make a decision pretty quick. But if he doesn't make a decision, Louisville and Missouri are still there."
Niang was courted by many schools, such as UCLA, Stanford and Notre Dame but has narrowed his choices to Kansas and San Diego State.
In Bookout, the Jayhawks are recruiting one of the most versatile athletes in the nation. In addition to his prowess on the hardwood, Bookout thrives as a major-league prospect pitcher and Olympic-hopeful shotput and discus thrower.
Bookout will also visit with Kansas track coaches this weekend.
Notes. Kansas will conduct walk-on tryouts in Allen Fieldhouse beginning at 8 p.m. Sunday. Any student interested in participating should stop by the men's basketball office, 250 Wagonon Student Athlete Center and fill out preliminary paperwork. They are required also bring proof of health insurance and proof of a physical exam taken within the past year.
Notes:
Students can receive physical exams at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Former Kansas center Eric Chenowith was cut from the Sacramento Kings' training camp roster on Wednesday.
wednesday
He had joined 'the Kings' NBA camp after being cut by the New York Knicks last week.
Knicks last week. "We are a loaded team here," a Kings' representative said Wednesday night. "We have 12 guaranteed contracts and are at the luxury tax number and can't go over. We are set with big men with Vlade (Divac), Scot (Pollard), Mario Bennett, Lawrence Funderburke, Chris (Webber), guys like that."

Donations part of events at other Big 12 schools
By Ali Brox Kansan sportswriter
While the Kansas men's and women's basketball teams open the 2001-2002 basketball season with Late Nite with Roy Williams tonight, other teams around the Big 12 will have Midnight Madness events of their own.
Missouri is replacing Mizzou Madness with its first "Black and Gold Scrimmage." The men's team takes the court on Saturday, Oct. 27, in conjunction with the Tigers' football game against Texas. A portion of the proceeds from the event will go to charity. Four days later, the women's team will have its first public scrimmage as part of "Tiger Night of Terror" on Wednesday, Oct. 31.
texas Tech's "A Sharp Knight in Texas" will take place tonight in the United Spirit Arena. Women's coach Marsha Sharp and men's coach Bobby Knight will address the crowd, and the teams will be introduced. At midnight, both teams will gather on the floor and join the crowd in singing "God Bless America." Both teams will practice for 30 minutes, and each will scrimmage for two 10-minute periods. Admission is a minimum $2 donation that will go to the American Red Cross.
The Iowa State men's and women's basketball teams will be unveiled at the "Cyclone Shoot Out" on Saturday, Oct. 20, in Hilton Coliseum. Features include an autograph session, player introductions, a 3-point contest, a benefit auction and
"We get a few,but they're few and far between. That makes a lot of sense."

men's and women's scrimmages. Iowa State will donate $1 from each ticket purchased to the American Red Cross.
cased to the Oklahoma's version of Midnight Madness is "Late Night with Sooner Basketball" at 9 p.m., Friday, Oct. 19. The festivities include autographs, contests and prizes for fans, as well as a scrimmage and the traditional 3-point and slam-dunk contests. The six newcomers on the Oklahoma men's team will sing a rendition of the "Boomer Sooner" fight song to end the event.
In conjunction with renovations to the Frank Erwin Center, Texas will have the "Texas Basketball Courtside Countdown and Erwin Center Open House" at 5:30 p.m. Thursday. The event will include an autograph session with both teams, food drink, music and prizes. The coaching staff will also be in attendance. Texas will have its intrasquid scrimmage at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 31.

READY FOR A LATENITE
Coach Roy Williams speaks optimistically about the Kansas men's basketball team's new crop of freshmen. "I don't think we'll find out much about the freshmen from the scrimmage at Late Nite, but by the first exhibition game, we'll know exactly what we're going to get from those guys."
Williams said. He spoke yesterday at the Wagnon Student Athlete Center during a news conference that was part of the team's preseason media day.

Football: Timing a plus for Jayhawks
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 14A
Williams would have to be contained.
"We have to know where he's at all the time," Allen said. Williams is effective on the blitz, can play linebacker and can cover receivers, Allen said.
Playing alongside Williams is Rocky Calmus, a first-team All-American at linebacker a year ago.
One advantage Kansas may have in its favor is timing, but
Allen downplayed that aspect.
"Nobody has caught Oklahoma in the last two years at a good time," he said.
The Sooners are coming off of two emotional wins as they edged Kansas State 38-37 on Sept. 29 and topped arch-rival Texas 14-3 last weekend. The Sooners' next high profile game comes in two weeks when they visit No. 4 Nebraska.
Kansas can take comfort in the fact that they played Oklahoma as well as anyone last year, at least for one half.
"If you had to draw it up I guess it's as good a time as any," Allen said.
Kansas led 16-10 in the second quarter before surrendering the game's final 24 points and losing 34-16. Kansas racked up more total yards (377) than any other team against Oklahoma.
Receiver Termaine Fulton
True to form, Oklahoma escaped last year's game by taking seven turnovers from the Jayhawks.
said the Jayhawks proved last year that they could move the ball on the Oklahoma defense. This year, he said, the focus would be taking care of the ball.
Offensive tackle Justin Hartwig said Kansas left an impact in last year's game.
"Even the Oklahoma players were telling us after the game, 'Man, you guys were a lot better than we thought,'" Hartwig said.

Coach says Oklahoma won't look past Kansas
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — No. 3 Oklahoma goes into tomorrow night's game at Kansas after having defeated Kansas State and Texas in two tough, emotional games against highly ranked teams.
A letdown this week would be understandable, although it isn't likely.
One thing the Sooners have done in two-plus years under coach Bob Stoops is come ready to play each Saturday.
"We've never been an up-and-down team," he said. "We stick to our routine and how we prepare, how we practice. I think a big part of that is our players' respect for everyone that they're playing.
"Our players understand those players work hard, they're coached well, they practice, and our players respect them. Our players understand that we need to be at our best to have an opportunity to win against anybody."
Stoops' teams have been outstanding the week after playing Texas. In his first season, 1999, Oklahoma lost to Texas but followed it, after an open date, with a 51-6 victory against Texas A&M.
Last season, the Sooners went on the road and beat Kansas State one week after the Texas game.
"We don't put all our eggs in one basket for a game," Stoops said. "We prepare for the season as we go. We've been pretty good
about growing and maturing and getting better as we've gone through the year. That's how we've done it."
Kansas coach Terry Allen said that given the Sooners' recent schedule, this was about as good a time as any to have to play them. But he isn't banking on an upset for Kansas (2-2, 1-1).
"Are we catching Oklahoma at a good time? Nobody's caught Oklahoma at a good time in the last two years," he said.
Oklahoma: Team has 'aura' about it
CONTINUED FROM PAGE14A
Allen said. "They're undefeated and in the toughest league in the country. They wear their opponents out."
Kansas junior tight end David Hurst remembered Oklahoma in its less-memorable days, when he was a high school senior in 1997 in Austin, Texas.
"They weren't that good back then," Hurst said. "It's crazy how they have become so good so fast and with the same players. It's got to be the coaches."
Following a 5-6 season in 1998, Oklahoma fired coach John Blake and baited Bob Stoops, defensive coordinator at Florida, to become its 21st head coach. Stoops brought in a young and invigorated staff, including Kansas State assistants Brent Venables, Mark Mangino and his younger brother, Mike. The turnaround happened instantly. The Sooners and their revamped staff were back and winning.
"They are all good coaches," said Kansas freshman defensive end Travis Watkins, who worked with Mangino and Venables when they coached at Kansas State during a summer football
camp in 1999. "They're real knowledgeable about the game and have great attitudes. Hopefully, the coaches we have now will be able to follow their lead."
Allen said that he thought Oklahoma's offense was less powerful than it was last season, but he said it they had enough weapons to move the football.
Junior quarterback Nate Hybl is expected to make his fifth consecutive start after being rattled and bruised last weekend against Texas. He has thrown six touchdown passes. Junior running back Quentin Griffin has rushed for 395 yards and five scores and has caught 26 passes for 234 yards and a touchdown.
But Allen said that Oklahoma was winning because its mindset was that it could not lose. The Sooners had resurfaced as one of the country's best teams.
County soccer team "They've got an aura about them right now," Allen said. "They believe in themselves. They believe in their coaches. They believe they cannot be beat. And from a coaching standpoint, that's perfect."

Weekend will be full of Williams
Tomorrow is a big day for Roy Williams.
Whether it's at Allen Fieldhouse for "Late Nite" or Memorial Stadium for this year's homecoming game, Roy Williams will be on display.
Tomorrow is the last Saturday before Oct. 15, which means it's the first day of practice for the men's basketball team. It also happens to be the day of the Jayhawks' big bout with the No. 3 Oklahoma Sooners.
I think Roy Williams will steal the show, but maybe not the Roy you're thinking of. Saturday's star could wind up being a Roy Williams from another school, the All-American strong safety from Oklahoma.
Stuck in a conference that has more guys named "Roy Williams" than the Lawrence community has "John Smiths." Oklahoma's version began the year as the Big 12's third most popular Roy Williams.
With Kansas' basketball coach and Texas' superstar wide receiver both in the Big 12 and both claiming his same name, Oklahoma's Roy Williams had some stiff competition ahead of him.
Kansas' Williams is one of the most winning college basketball coaches of all time and Texas' Williams was recently named the best wide receiver in the country by ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. So even with his national championship and All-American status, back in August, one could have made an argument that the Sooners' Williams was taking a backseat to those who shared his name. Five games later, Williams is now behind the wheel.
Already this season, Oklahoma's Williams has put up 46 tackles and grabbed three interceptions while leading a Sooner defense that has scored five touchdowns.
Williams made one of those trips to the end zone on a fumble recovery in a win over Kansas State two weeks ago.
Williams had an interception and eight tackles in last week's 14-3 win against Texas, which was good enough to earn him a share of the Big 12 defensive player of the week award. His efforts also gave him bragging rights on the Longhorn's Roy Williams, who was kept in check for most of the day by the Sooners' secondary.
Last week, Oklahoma's Williams caused another defensive touchdown with a big hit on Texas quarterback Chris Simms that helped Oklahoma put the Longhorns away for good.
"Oklahoma Roy" has now established himself as the top safety in the nation, and is considered one of the front runners for the Jim Thorpe Award, which goes to the nation's top defensive back.
Now Williams brings his show to Kansas and will try to steal the spotlight from our Roy Williams just as he did last week to Roy Williams of Texas. Terry Allen and his team will do all they can to keep that from happening, but don't count on it. Last year Williams had 13 tackles and a sack against Kansas.
So, who's the best Roy Williams around? Honestly, I have no clue. But if you're wondering who'll top the headlines after tomorrow's games, let's hope it's the Jayhawk football team in an upset of the defending champs. However, if the safest bet is what you're looking for, I'd put my money on anyone named Roy Williams.

Homecoming hope
Jayhawks must protect football and not add to Sooners' chances
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
Coach Terry Allen and his Kansas football coaching staff could be exhausted by kickoff tomorrow.
executed by him.
By that time, they will have finalized their plan to stop Oklahoma, a task that has drained the staff for the past week.
Oklahoma's defense is among the nation's best, and the team also features an offense that scored 38 points on a strong Kansas State defense. The Sooners have a special teams unit that features the nation's seventh best punter and the fourth best kickoff returner.
"They come at you from everywhere," said defensive end Travis Watkins. "That's why they're the nation's best team in my opinion."
The Kansas coaching staff has worked overtime to produce the answers that have eluded the past 18 teams that have played the Sooners. The coaches' deadline is 6 p.m. tomorrow when the homecoming game between the Sooners and Jayhawks gets underway at Memorial Stadium.
"Oklahoma lives and dies by the turnover." Allen said. "What we have to do is make them earn points with their offense and not give them points through turnovers and special teams."
Kansas linebacker Leo Etienne said he had never seen a team that had such a knack for making big plays at crucial times.
"You never know who's going to make that big play." Etienne said.
"Every week they have somebody else stepping up."
Thirteen players have combined for Oklahoma's 21 touchdowns this season, six of which have been scored by a kick return. Three have come off of interceptions, two by fumbles and one on a kickoff.
Sooner wide receiver Antwone Savage also plays defensive back, returns kicks, has thrown a touchdown, caught a touchdown and returned a kickoff for a score.
Through two Big 12 Conference games, Kansas has yet to surrender a turnover.
Allen said Oklahoma had no weaknesses and too many strengths to single out, but he said strong safety Roy

Four years ago they were a doormar of the Big 12 Conference. Tomorrow, the Oklahoma Sooners will enter Memorial Stadium as the reigning kings of the conference and the country.
In 1997, the Sooners had trouble winning. They finished 4-8. One of their losses came against Kansas, 20-17, in Lawrence.

Now, they can't seem to lose. Coming into tomorrow's 6 p.m. nationally televised matchup with the 2-2 Jayhawks,the Sooners have tallied 18 consecutive wins.
Texas Tech linebacker Jonathan Hawkins pushes Kansas sophomore running back Reggie Duncan out of bounds during Duncan's 227-yard, 38-carry performance last weekend. Duncan will try to provide an offensive boost to aid the Jayhawks against No. 3 Oklahoma tomorrow.
That span included dominating Nebraska in Norman, Okla., outmatching Kansas State in Manhattan last October and stifling Heisman trophy winner Chris Weinke and his Florida State offense in the Orange Bowl for the National Championship in January.
After watching No. 3 Oklahoma sneak by Kansas State on Sept. 29 and
defeat Texas last Saturday, Kansas coach Terry Allen said no team in the country was playing more soundly than the Sooners.
"I've said it several times in the last
couple weeks, but I do vote on the coaches poll, and for me, Oklahoma is the No. 1 team in the country,"

Coaches eager to see debut of freshmen at Late Nite
By Ryan Malashock Kansan sportswriter
At the stroke of midnight, the wait will be done.
At tonight's Late Nite with Roy Williams, the Kansas men's basketball team ends its six months of waiting since bowing out in the Sweet 16 of last year's NCAA Tournament. The women's team will participate in the skits but will not scrimmage.
Kansas opens the first practice of the 2001-2002 season tonight with the uncertainty of blending four new faces into the team's returning nucleus.
Freshmen Aaron Miles, Michael Lee, Keith Langford, Wayne Simien and Jeff Hawkins will make their Allen Fieldhouse debuts in the midnight intrasquad scrimmage. Hawkins will redshirt this season, but he is allowed to play tonight.
Coach Roy Williams, who is entering his 14th season as head coach at Kansas, has been restricted to watch pick-up games or scrimmages of his freshmen players so far because of NCAA rules. While he's interested to see how they perform tonight, Williams said he wouldn't make any concrete judgments about the freshmen based on tonight's scrimmage.
"I have no idea because I don't watch them, but I hear all the stories from the upperclassmen and former players that played with them in the summer," Williams said at men's basketball media day yesterday. "I don't think we'll find out much about the freshmen from the scrimmage at Late Nite, but by the first exhibition game, we'll know exactly what we're going to get from those guys."
The Jayhawks return four players, senior Jeff Boschee and juniors Drew Gooden, Nick Collison and Kirk Hinrich, with starting experience from a year ago. Finding that fifth starter will be a test for Williams, and that starter could come from the talented group of freshmen.
"They all have a lot of tools to do a lot of things." Collison said. "It might take them a while to understand how hard you have to play at this level, but it is the same with every freshman coming out of high school. Everyone will get to know about these things in the first couple weeks of practice."
Hinrich said the freshmen had meshed with the returning players, which had created a comfortable environment.
"Those freshmen are crazy." Hinrich said. "I wouldn't be surprised if you do something really funny at Late Nite."
That comfortable environment could bring about some laughs during the players' skits tonight, according to Hinrieb
The women's team will also be adding to the laughter tonight, as it takes part in the skits. And even though the team won't take part in a scrimmage, coach Marian Washington said that the team's talent was something she couldn't wait to watch.
"I'm real excited about our young players," Washington said. "We'll be much more athletic this year. We'll have to depend greatly on our defense, we'll have to depend greatly on our ability to hit the boards better than we did a year ago, and find different ways to score."
Senior men's player Brett Ballard said he hoped that the Late Nite skits with no theme would be a different way to score. He said that the event would provide a mix between comical and serious tones
"There will definitely be some surprises tonight," Ballard said. "It's going to be a lot of fun. We're also going to do some things related to the Sep. 11 tragedies, which will mean a lot."
Doors to the fieldhouse will open at 7 tonight, with activities starting at 8 p.m.

The Big Jay mascot welcomed his new friend, Baby Jay, during halftime of the 1971 homecoming game.
Baby Jays reunite to celebrate 30 years of Rock Chalk spirit
By Adam Stein Kansan correspondent
Amy Hurst Rachman will be in town for homecoming weekend to commemorate the 30th anniversary of a KU tradition she started. Rachman is the original Baby lay.
With help from the KU Alumni Association, Rachman has managed to locate 30 former mascots who will come to Lawrence for a homecoming weekend reunion. Although many former KU students have been mascots, Rachman hopes this weekend will be the first of annual mascot reunions.
Rachman, a KU alumna who lives in North Carolina, came to KU as a freshman in 1971. She knew she wanted to be a Jayhawk when she came to a family reunion in Lawrence while still in high school. She was a huge fan of athletics, and had been a cheerleader in high school. She knew she wanted to continue being a standout supporter of athletics in college. That's where the Baby Jay idea came in.
"There was just something about that bird," Rachman said. "I saw the baby Jayhawks walking
behind the big one, and I knew there had to be a Baby Jay mascot."
Rachman worked as a waitress her freshman year and her manager at the time, Eldon Puett, was a Jayhawk mascot. Puett encouraged her to pitch her idea for a Baby Jay mascot to the Alumni Association. She took his advice and was eventually given permission to be the original Baby Jay. The only condition was that she create the costume.
Rachman, with the help of family, came up with the original costume from chicken wire, fiberglass and fabric. The finished product weighed a little less than eighty pounds. Baby Jay was introduced at halftime of the 1971 homecoming game.
home coming game
The Phi Kappa Theta fraternity constructed a float with a giant egg for Baby Jay to "hatch" from. Baby Jay came into the world on Oct. 10, 1971. And the rest, as they say, is history.

Wearing bird suits requires time, heart for these Jayhawks
By Louise Stauffer
Kansan correspondent
Huddled in a room upstairs in Allen Fieldhouse, nine mascots begin practice on a Tuesday night. The mood is playful, and the group evokes a feeling of camaraderie.
"Just to let you guys know, I got a girl's number in full suit at the last game," said Chris Veit, Overland Park sophomore.
There are nine mascots, four men and five women. The ages, lifestyles and personalities vary, but the common interest of entertainment is what brings them together.
Jerry Pauly, Denton senior, and Veit, decided to try out to be mascots because their pledge father at Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity had been one.
Eva Davis, Topeka first-year nursing student, is beginning her second year as the mascot coach. Davis has a mascot three years before turning to coaching. She is responsible for taking care of everything for the mascots: scheduling appearances, caring for costumes, raising money, getting everyone to camp and planning practices.
Davis said October would be busy for the mascots. Mascot appearances include games, parades, cocktail parties and private events.
Part of a mascot practice is deciding who is going to work at which event.
Laura Rupe, Wichita junior, said she liked to be the first one of the day to wear the suit.
"That way the suit isn't sweaty," Rupe said.
She said she didn't mind sharing a suit with fellow mascot Jessica Butler, Albuquerque, N.M., junior. "We shared one all last year. I'm used to mixing my sweat with hers," Rupe said.
The mascots have two "new bird" suits that are called the priority birds. The priority birds are used for big games and appearances where lots of people are going to see them. The squad uses the two older suits for events when the new birds are in use.
"We use really old suits from the 1970s and the '80s to practice in," Davis said. She said that the average lifespan of a suit was five years.
"We have to get new ones because they smell, and they get a lot of wear and tear," she said.
The suits don't come cheap. Davis said two new Big Jay suits, which are needed, would cost about $12,000.
OLIVIA SARI/KANSAN
Money for suits comes through the Spirit Fund, which is also used by the Crimson Girls and the cheerleaders, or through fund-raising that the mascots do on their own.
Hiring themselves out for private events is something that the mascots do to raise money. KU graduates have hired the mascots to appear at weddings, which cost them $100.Eighty dollars of that goes toward the University, and the squad member keeps the remaining $20.
VIRGINIA
Wearing a suit can take some getting used to. Pauly said that the head of BigJay weighed about 12 pounds, and the rest of the suit can vary.
"It can weigh between 30 to 35 pounds,depending on how wet it is," Pauly said. It is also extremely hot inside the suits.
Fellow mascots goof around at the end of practice, hauling up Chris Veit, Overland Park sophomore, in the Big Jay suit while he grasps the rim at Allen Fieldhouse. The mascot roster for this year consists of four men and five women, which is a number that has grown during the past few years.
"It feels like the devil in there," Veit said.
The only problem the mascots seemed to have with walking in the suits was down small stairs.
"The small stairs are hard, but if you fall, it's not a big deal," Rupe said.
There are dangers other than falling that the mascots risk at every event's performance.
Each time a mascot has an appearance, a squad member out of suit goes along as a bodyguard. The bodyguard looks out for the mascot to protect it from abuse.
museo
Squad members said they had been clotheslined, punched, pushed around and had their suit ripped at appearances. Pauly remembers having the head of his suit ripened off at a Texas A&M game.
It takes a lot more than learning how to walk in a suit to be a mascot. The tryouts last three days. On the first day, tryout hopefuls run for 20 minutes to show that they have stamina for the job. A grade check, with 2.0 cumulative minimum, is also done. Each mascot must be a full-time student. They are also taught the fight song. On the second day, each person appears in front of the judges in the mascot suit by themselves.
They are required to perform activities such as a skit that they made up the day before, and to do some improv. On the third day of tryouts, the judges conduct personal interviews. The number of students that try out varies each year.
"When KU won tournaments, we had a large turnout at tryouts," Davis said. "But we're growing, we've gone from three people to five people to nine people on the team in the past three years."
Mascots also get to go to summer camp. Every camp, the mascots go to mascot camp for a
week, where they "act like a bunch of kindergartners," Butler said. Last summer, the camp lasted a week and took place in Milwaukee, Wis. The camp is called Mascot Mania, and is sponsored by the Universal Cheer Association. Pauly said that it was probably the largest mascot camp in the world.
"The main focus of camp is getting time in suit," Pauly said. "Without an audience, you can experiment stuff without the pressure. Basically, we get to talk shop for a whole week."
Pauly said that at the camp the mascots can experiment with impromptu things that they would like to try when they perform. He said a couple of years ago, the camp went and performed for kids at a day care to try out some new things.
"I have a trick that I stole from camp, where I grab a kids hat and pretend like I'm going to throw it." Paulv said.
Davis said that another big
part of camp was getting crijqued.
"A big part of camp is learning what works for other mascots, what they do." Davis said. "You also get the chance to have someone from another school to critique you."
Friendships and more have sometimes developed between the members of the mascot squad. Former Big Jay Josh Cox is married to a former Baby Jay, Kerri Cox.
"Eva and I went to their wedding and were in suit for a little while." Pauly said.
However, Josh Cox, who Pauly said was the epitome of KU spirit, and Kerri were never on the squad at the same time.
Rupe said that many people have the misconception that all squad members are former cheerleaders.
"At some schools, it's the old cheerleaders, or the ones who didn't make the squad in college that are the mascots," she said. "That's not us — we want to be mascots."

Black Student Union crowns royalty
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
Anneshea Scottlikes to keep it real. That's why the Junction City freshman chose the "I'm real" remix by Jennifer Lopez and Ja Rule to represent her personality in the Black Student Union's homecoming queen contest.
"I don't like to sugarcoat things." Scott said.
Scott was chosen as the homecoming queen at the organization's meeting Monday. Brandy Griffin, Grandview, Mo., sophomore, was chosen as princess. Scott said the contest was also a fund-raiser for the organization.
Scott and Griffin will participate in the homecoming parade today.
For the contest, Scott said she had to fill out an application, write an essay on why she wanted to run for homecoming queen, participate in a question-and-answer session, choose a special outfit and pick a song to represent her.
She said she and Griffin also had to ask for donations from other students.
Scott said she chose to wear KU pants and an Inspirational Gospel Voices T-shirt to show pride in the University and her love for singing. She said she also did her hair because hairstyling was one of her passions.
Shanika McPhaull, Omaha, Neb. senior, and BSU student senator, said the money raised from the contest would be used for the organization to attend the annual Big 12 Student Conference Jan. 31 to Feb. 3, 2002, at the University of Missouri. She was not able to say how much was raised.
She said 50 to 60 students were planning to attend the conference. The KU chapter of BSU played host to the event last spring.

Beating K-State and drinking free beer: Homecoming's glory days remembered
By Lauren Stewart
Kansan correspondent
Sonny and Cher were there. So was 800 gallons of free blue beer. Baby Jay made his first appearance, and hundreds of pairs of Crimson and Blue underwear were dumped on Kansas State's campus. After 89 years, history has proven almost anything can happen during homecoming week at the University of Kansas.
Before the first official homecoming game in November 1912, the University spent several weeks planning events for students and alumni. The week before the game, interest was so high that workers were trying to build enough box seats and bleachers to accommodate all the fans who had purchased tickets for the Nebraska game. By the 1920s, more than 30,000 people attended the homecoming games in the then-recently constructed Memorial Stadium.
Although many alumali return to the campus for homecoming, the majority of events have been student-oriented. In the freshman nightshirt parade — popular in the early days of homecoming, but unsuccessfully revived in 1945 — male freshmen would parade around campus in their pajamas.
All students, however, could participate in Hobo Day. Students dressed in their oldest and shabbiest clothes the day before the game and marched in parades, sang songs and organized contests for the best-
dressed hoboes. Despite the protests of faculty members, Hobo Day became an annual event from 1923 to 1941.
One of the more unusual traditions often would coincide with Hobo Day. Doctor Yak, the "famous pep-dispenser," would be the focus at a pep rally on Hobo Day. Created in 1919, this character — portrayed by an alum — was an old-fashioned medicine peddler, handing out sugarcoated "pep pills" guaranteed to "create more pep and confidence" in students. This tradition continued into the 1940s.
House decorations also were once an important part of homecoming festivities. The best-decorated fraternity, sorority or other organized house was selected on the basis of "beauty, appropriateness, originality and cleverness." In 1929, the Delta Sigma Lambda fraternity received first prize by depicting a nest crowded with hungry baby Jayhawks, with older birds bringing tiger cubs to them for a homecoming feast.
The construction of floats began in 1938 and continues today. Other cultural and social activities have been planned during homecoming weekend, including University Theatre productions, art exhibitions, intramural sports and special concerts featuring such performers as Elton John, Louis Armstrong, Bill Maher and Sonny and Cher.
Yet many of these once important traditions have ceased, leaving one student apathetic and uninformed about homecoming at the University
"I don't really know anything about our homecoming, and besides, I don't really care," said Danila Staa, Leawood sophomore. "Even in high school, I never really had an interest in it all. It just doesn't seem that special to me."
Staab is not the only one to have that opinion. Even in the 1930s, alumni were bemoaning the lack of enthusiasm exhibited by students toward homecoming festivities.
One of the most visible traditions was the homecoming court, but the last homecoming queen was elected in 1969. The following year, the homecoming committee decided to eliminate the position of homecoming queen, saying that one queen truly could not reflect the multicultural and diverse University. Partly because of this decision, no major homecoming activities took place in 1970.
UNIVERSITY ARCHIVES PHOTO
However, homecoming returned to the University in 1971 with the theme, "Go Big Blue!" During the halftime show, Baby Jay appeared for the first time, hatching out of a giant egg in front of 55,000 fans. Later, after Kansas beat Kansas State 39-13, students quickly drank 800 gallons of free blue beer while attending an all-school dance sponsored by the board of class officers.
Several memorable pranks also were executed in 1971. Using fire extinguishers filled with gallons of white paint, 13 students transformed the giant KS overlooking Manhattan into a giant

KU. In addition, several fraternity members organized what was described as an "airborne panty raid," collecting hundreds of bras and athletic supporters, dying them crimson and blue, and
dropping them on K-State's campus from a small airplane.

Past, present, future Jayhawks take pride in traditions
Bv Lauren Airey
Kansan correspondent
For Stephanie LeClaire, the University of Kansas is a family institution.
instruction.
As she grew up, she watched football and basketball on television and in person. From an early age, LeClaire wanted to be a part of KU tradition.
"I've always had KU pride," said LeClaire, Shawnee freshman. "I was raised hearing stories about what it was like when my parents went to KU. My favorite tradition is the Rock Chalk chant because it gives me goose bumps. It's almost haunting."
One of the nation's most famous college cheers, the Roeb
Chalk chant is a rallying cry for students and alumni around the world. A chemistry professor invented the chant in 1886 while returning from a conference by train. The click-clack of the train on the rail joints was the basis for the rhythm. The original "Rah, Rah, Jayhawk, KU" was later replaced with "Rock Chalk, Jayhawk, KU." Chalk rock is the name for the limestone outcropping on Mount Oread, the site of the Lawrence campus.
After gaining popularity with the students, the cheer became known worldwide. Teddy Roosevelt called it the greatest college chant he'd ever heard. It was presented to the King of Belgium
at the 1920 Olympic Games as a typical college yell. It was used by troops from Kansas fighting in World War II. In August, Sports Illustrated named it the most underrated college chant in its article "The Rating Game."
Perhaps the most recognizable symbol of the University is its mascot, the Jayhawk. The Jayhawk is a mythical bird with roots tied to the historic struggle of Kansas settlers during the time of the Civil War. During the 1850s, Kansas was a battleground between people who wanted legal slavery and those who wanted a free state. Fora time both sides were referred to as Jay hawkers. The name stuck, though to those in favor of a free state.
By the end of the Civil War, Jayhawks were synonymous with the passion and conviction of the people who fought to make Kansas a free state. In 1886, the bird first appeared in the University's Roek Chalk chant. When Kansas football players took to the field in 1890, the logical name for the team was the Jayhawkers.
A student cartoonist drew the first version of the Jayhawk in 1912. In 1920, a more somber bird, perched on a KU monogram, was redrawn. In 1923, two students designed a duck-like 'Hawk that resembles today's Jayhawk. After quickly scrapping the grim Jayhawk, the depression-era Jayhawk and the perky Jayhawk,
KU settled on the design of a smiling Jayhawk in 1946. This 'Hawk still adorns the campus, the athletic field and KU merchandise.
The Jayhawk came alive in the 1960s when the KU Alumni Association provided a mascot costume and "Jay" entertained fans at sporting events. In 1971, during the homecoming halftime show, a huge egg was brought to the 50-yard line, and fans watched the hatch of Jay's companion, "Baby Jay." Today, anonymous students continue to provide entertainment as the mascots.

Residence halls add to festivities
GOOD
By Janette Yost Kansan correspondent
Although greek groups have traditionally led homecoming festivities, Daisy Hill has been putting more and more emphasis on branching out the Jawhawk homecoming spirit.
EN-KAF CHANG/KANSAN
Leading up to this fall's homecoming, the Association of University Residence Halls has presented a spirit-filled week of activities.
Andrea Kenigstein (left), San Antonio, Texas, senior, and Linday Striker, Minneapolis, Minn., senior, write their support of the football team on a giant card on Wescoe Beach. The card will compete for the title of World's Largest Good Luck Card.
"This is the first year we've planned homecoming events geared specifically toward residence halls," said Erin Ohm, Wichita sophomore and vice president of AURH programming. "It's gone over very well."
Tuesday's focus was on charity. In all dining centers, students bought balloons. Profits are being donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The students who chose to support Tuesday's activities were offered the opportunity to have their balloons on the spot or wait to receive them before today's homecoming parade, where they will be marching with their balloons and the AURH banner.
banners and the team logo.
Wednesday saw "the most unique event in pre-Homecoming plans this year," said Shannon Bell, Los Angeles sophomore. In front of Wescoe Hall, a life-sized card was laid out for students to sign. Students left messages for the football team expressing their encouragements for tomorrow's game. The card will be entered in the Guinness Book of World Records to compete for the title of World's Largest Good Luck Card.
the "This could be some really interesting recognition for the University to be in the Book of World Records," said Dustin Sweepston. Inman freshman.
The judging started yesterday for the best decorated lobby windows at all residence halls. Judges voted by creativity, good taste and consistency with the homecoming theme,"2001 Hawk Odyssey."
Last night emphasized academics as some Daisy Hill resident assistants participated in Get Caught Studying Night. Each RA made "academic rounds" through their halls, and the residents found studying were rewarded with a packet of candy and congratulations.
Today, a cage for clocking pitch speeds and a basketball hoop are set up on the front lawn
of Lewis Hall near Mrs. E's dining center. The machines are being rented by the association forfun, and any student living in the residence halls is welcome to participate. The machines will be up and running through the afternoon and early evening.

Greek alumni return for homecoming
Katy Swaney
Kansan correspondent
Crimson and blue spirit is being shown by many in the KU community — even by those who have already graduated from the University.
Many of the greek alumni are back on campus to show their enthusiasm for the University and each of their respective houses.
"We are setting up a tent on the hill for the game," said John Holtzclaw, Lawrence junior and president of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity. "We will have our letters and flags flying."
The fraternity is making accommodations for approximately 125 alumni returning to KU.
Like Tau Kappa Epsilon, other fraternities and sororities are holding similar gatherings to welcome returning members.
Gamma Phi Beta women are expecting alumnae at their open house tomorrow. Chapter president Molly Mueller, Overland Park senior, said they have several involved alumnae who live in Lawrence. Among them is the mother of Erin Brockovitch, the woman upon whom the hit movie was based.
"They like to come look around and love to tour the house with their families," Mueller said.
Triangle fraternity is also holding an open house for the modest number of returning alumni they anticipate.
"We will have a barbecue before the game and then likely have a
meet and greet session after," said Triangle member Jon McGinnis, Collinsville, Ill., junior.
Homecoming will be significant to Alpha Gamma Delta sorority members and alumnae for many different reasons. A ground-breaking ceremony will be at 11 a.m. tomorrow to begin construction of the chapter's new house at 1521 Sigma Nu Place. Several alumnae are expected to return for the ceremony and to spend the day with active members of Alpha Gamma Delta.
"A lot of these women haven't been back in a while," said Lori Allen, Alpha Gamma Delta chapter adviser. "The collegiate women will be entertaining the alumnae and giving house tours."
Allen said the ground-breaking ceremony also would begin
the process of fund raising for the new house.
Besides welcoming back alumni, KU fraternity and sorority members have been taking part in many of the homecoming activities and fund-raising events for various charities this week. Many houses have also been putting in long hours working on floats for the parade.
Alpha Chi Omega member Shelly Manion, Branson West, Mo., senior, said her sorority was working on a float with Theta Chi fraternity.
"It takes quite a bit of time between both our houses, and it's a lot of work, but a lot of fun," Manion said.

Service part of week for scholarship halls
Kansan correspondent
University of Kansas scholarship halls are getting down and dirty during homecoming. From food art to community service, residents will celebrate the week while giving something back to the school and community.
Events include service projects, such as collecting canned food and reading to children at The United Way.
"We like using community service as an outlet for our creativity," said Brian Sanderson, Olathe sophomore and Stephenson Scholarship Hall resident.
Residents also prepared more creative activities such as a dance-a-thon and Casino Night, which is a theme party based on The Godfather.
"I don't know where they come up with some of these ideas for the activities," said Andrea Jennings, Olathe sophomore and resident of Sellards Scholarship Hall. "I think some people probably think we're crazy."
by think we are to climb.
The halls nominated candidates for homecoming queen to compete for a title among the other halls. One Sellards resident, Lacey Pfannenstiel, Hutchinson sophomore, said she didn't like the competition
among the scholarship halls.
"In my opinion, we shouldn't be competing against each other," Pfannenstiel said. "We should be coming together as scholarship halls against the residence halls and frats."
But Sanderson embraces the competitive spirit.
"I confess that, in years past, we have just messed around," Sanderson said. "But this time, we have become more involved."
Sanderson and other Stephenson residents have entered the University float competition. And Sanderson said he was optimistic about the float's chances for first place because it would be
the most original one in the parade. Sanderson said his team took a unique twist on the theme "2001: A Hawk Odyssey."
"Where most of the floats will probably focus on Stanley Kubrick's movie, ours is focusing on the original Odyssey by Homer," Sanderson said.
Hoffner, Schauer
Pfannenstiel said she wanted to have fun while uniting with other students.
"After all, we are a community. We're all together in this thing," Pfannenstiel said.

Local businesses such as The Wheel, 507 W. 14th St., are getting ready for Kansas' homecoming by displaying welcome banners. Lawrence businesses expect significant boosts in sales this weekend because of the homecoming crowd.
It's the time of year when leaves start to fall, alumni flock to Lawrence, and local businesses prepare for the coming crowds of consumers.
Businesses gear up for game
By Collin LaJoie Kansan correspondent
Homecoming is not just a football game. For many local hotels, restaurants and bars, it also makes for a profitable weekend.
Local bars, hotels and restaurants ready to serve
When alumni arrive for the game, many have to find a hotel. Marcia Wilson of the University of Kansas Alumni Association works with three area hotels to accommodate them. Alumni are directed to Holiday Inn Holidome, 200 McDonald Drive; Days Inn, 2309 Iowa St.; and Westminster Inn, 2525 W. Sixth St.
Kate Williams, director of operations at Days Inn, said football weekends were some of the busiest times of the year.
"On weekends we fill 100 per
cent of our rooms,which is about 350 people," she said. "We make about 30 percent more than on a normal weekend."
For an event as big as homecoming, many hotel rooms are booked far in advance.
She said about 40 percent of those who checked into Days Inn during homecoming weekend were alumni or the families of students.
Only three Lawrence hotels work with the Alumni Association, but other hotels are preparing for homecoming weekend as well.
"We're full for homecoming. We've been completely full for three months," Williams said.
Regina Haggard, director of sales at the Ramada Inn of Lawrence, 2222 W. Sixth St., said that although a Nebraska weekend would likely sell out faster than an Oklahoma weekend, she would still prepare.
"We beef up our staff," she said.
We beep up on our sun, the oak Many restaurants and bars also feel the effects of homecoming.
On the day of the game, Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St., plans to offer an extra incentive.
"We have a bus that leaves 20 minutes before the game and stops in front of the stadium," manager Tucker Craig said. The bus requires one purchase from lohnny's, but is otherwise free.
Magerl said he had prepared by adding staff in anticipation of about a 30 percent increase in business.
Chuck Magerl, owner of Free State Brewing Company. 636 Massachusetts St., said business lasts the entire weekend.
"Different organizations and groups attend these events and they're still in town with free time," he said.
Jayhawk Spirit, a locally owned business at 935 Massachusetts St., can do 40 to 50 percent more business on a day like homecoming, said manager Willie Wilkerson.
He said during these big events, many people came to his store for T-shirts.
"We do all of our own screen printing, so lots of parents and friends come in for the T-shirts," Wilkerson said.

National champions loom for homecoming
Kansas football team to face similar game to 1984 Oklahoma upset
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
Even an average team can take a unique risk on homecoming.
"I think we're probably the only program in the country that scheduled the defending national champions for homecoming," said Kansas coach Terry Allen, whose 2-2 team will play host to No. 3 Oklahoma tomorrow.
Even though Allen said he had nothing to do with the scheduling,he said he welcomed the challenge.
"The better the opponent, the better the opportunity," said Allen, who is 4-0 in homecoming games at Kansas.
Longtime Kansas followers may see a parallel between this week's game and one played nearly 20 years ago.
In 1984, Oklahoma brought a No.2 ranking and unbeaten record into Lawrence for a homecoming game against a 2-5 Iavhawk team.
Kansas won the game 28-11, handing coach Barry Switzer's team its only loss of the regular season.
Oklahoma finished 1984 ranked No. 6 after losing to No. 2 Washington in the Orange Bowl. Kansas used the game as a spring board, winning three of its last four and finishing the season 5-6.
"Some of our grandest moments in the history of Kansas football have come in upsets against Oklahoma," Allen said.
Kansas also beat a ranked Oklahoma team in 1975 when the Sooners were ranked No. 12.
Homecoming has been kind to Kansas in recent years. The Hawks are 10-1 in their last 11 homecoming games — the best stretch since the tradition began in 1912.
"Some of our grandest moments in the history of Kansas football have come in upsets against Oklahoma."
Terry Allen Kansas football coach
Kansas beat Colorado 23-15 last year to notch its fourth straight homecoming win.
Allen credited festive homecoming atmospheres for the team's performances.
However, he said the atmosphere for the UCLA game was similar to that of homecoming, and the 'Hawks were soundly beaten.
"Hopefully we'll get a lot of those people back," Allen said of the 43,500 fans who witnessed the loss to the Bruins.
Few fans have seen Kansas since. Kansas' home game with Wyoming was postponed after the terrorist attacks, the Colorado and Texas Tech road games weren't televised, and the bye-week was also in the mix.
When tomorrow rolls around, it will have been 33 days between home dates, the longest in-season stretch in Kansas history. The stretch has left the players ready to get back in front of the home fans.
"It's great to finally be home," said defensive end Travis Watkins. "It's been rough playing on the road like that, especially at Texas Tech. But hopefully we'll come home and have a packed stadium."
The Athletics Department expects a crowd in the mid-40,000 range for tomorrow's game.
Kansas is 38-45-5 in homecoming games and 27-63-6 all-time against Oklahoma.

Extra security measures to greet football fans
By Steve Schmidt Kansan sportswriter
It used to be the only thing you had to do to enter a sporting event was hand the stadium worker your ticket and pass through the turnstiles. After Sept. 11, however, that has changed.
Following state regulations, the University will have heightened security and extra safety precautions when the football team plays Oklahoma tomorrow.
The gates will open an hour and a half before the 6:13 p.m. kickoff. Fans should try to arrive earlier than usual, said Lynn Bretz, director of University Relations.
Near the turnstiles, fans can expect all containers, including bags and handbags, to be
searched.
"We're just trying to make sure everything is safe as possible so everybody can sit back and enjoy the game." Bretz said. " we're going to be thorough but expedient as we can."
In addition to extra security personnel on and off the field, members of the media and all other stadium employees will be required to carry their personal credentials in plain view.
University officials are also asking that fans try not to re-enter the stadium after leaving, except in emergencies. Those who leave and attempt to re-enter the stadium will be searched.
Andrew Robsham, St. Louis, freshman, said he was upset about not being to carry on his
usual halftime routine.
But others disagreed.
"During halftime myself and other friends like to keep grilling and tailgating," Robsham said. "Leaving and re-entering shouldn't be a policy. It's ludicrous."
"I can understand their fears," said Jenni Knell, Carthage, Mo., freshman. "I went to a concert a week after it happened and we couldn't even take bags in. I'm not going to be mad about it. Everyone is kind of on edge."
Local firefighters, police officers, ROTC members, and others will hold up an 850-pound American flag as part of an effort to unite and move forward as a school and a country.
Floats to go on a 'Hawk Odyssey'
Contact Schmidt at 864-4810
By Betsy Fahey Kansan correspondent
This year's homecoming parade, "2001: A Hawk Odyssey," will blast off at 2:30 p.m. today on Jayhawk Boulevard.
"This year there have been great changes made in the parade," said Emilie Boesen, Des Moines, Iowa, junior and homecoming woman for Kappa Delta sorority.
The parade will start off at the Adams Alumni Center and finish at the Chi Omega Fountain. This direction is the opposite of what it has been in previous years. Boesen said this would give people a better chance to see the floats after the parade. Directly after the parade, the floats will be unhitched and dragged down to Allen Fieldhouse lawn to be displayed before Late Nite with Roy Williams.
The winners of the floats will then be announced at 5 p.m. at Allen Fieldhouse in conjunction with an announcement on KJHK
This year's floats will be judged by adherence to theme, creativity, technical complexity and operability, display condition, adherence to rules, and appropriateness and good taste.
The top three winners will be invited to park their floats on Campanile hill before and during the homecoming football game tomorrow.
Another bonus for this year's festivities is that all the participants of the parade are allowed to make the human tunnel at the game.
This year there are 26 organizations registered to have a float and 13 organizations that will march in the parade.
Also included in the parade this year are the men from Stephenson Scholarship Hall, whose float has been banned for two years running because of obscenes.
"We are frustrated and we don't want to be discriminated against," said Brian Sanderson, Olathe sophomore and Stephenson resident. "This year we are going to be involved in all the activities and we are just going to have a lot of fun with it."
Last year's winners, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, anticipate back-to-back wins, said Eric Slivinski, Overland Park junior and homecoming chairman for the fraternity.
our strength is that we put a lot of effort into this and we take pride in what we do." Slivinski said.
Homecoming is an exciting time for students, faculty and alumni, and the perfect opportunity for students to show their school pride, said Kelly McNearney, Overland Park junior and member of the homecoming planning committee.
"It's time for KU to step it up in regards to homecoming and get students more involved," McNearney said. "This year KU is going to have a homecoming worthy of our amazing school spirit."

Scholars to be honored before game, at halftime
By Maggie Newcomer
By Maggie Newcomer Kansan correspondent
For most of us, the checklist of things to buy for homecoming includes hamburgers, chips, pop and any other snacks that might come in handy during the tailgate party. One group of students and their families, however, don't have to buy a thing to enjoy pregame festivities.
For the third year, Chancellor Robert Hemenway will honor scholarship winners during halftime of tomorrow's homecoming game and at a buffet before the game.
About 150 winners of the Summerfield, Watkins-Berger, National Achievement, National Hispanic and National Merit Scholarships will attend the event with their families.
"The chancellor will speak, and it's just a good chance for everyone to get to know each other," said Gail Sherron, assistant director of admissions and scholarships.
Recipients of the Summerfield and Watkins-Berger Scholarships are students who graduated from a Kansas high school with a 3.5 grade point average and a 31 or higher on the ACT.
"There are 100 people who get these scholarships," Sherron said. "Fifty boys and 50 girls. The Chancellor's Honors Scholarship Committee decides when the students are seniors in high school."
Jessica Pownell, Newton junior and National Merit Scholar, attended the event last year.
"Basically, we get free tickets to the game and walk across the field," Pownell said. "It's kind of fun, and it's good to see my family and hang out with them for a while."
Seats near the end zone are reserved for the students and their guests.
Mike Wellems, Andover, Minn., freshman and National Merit Scholar, said he looked forward to homecoming.
"It was a big deal at my high
school, so I hope it will be just as big of a deal here," Wellems said. "I hope it will be fun."
Wellems said the University's scholarship programs influenced his decision to come to Lawrence.
"KU was by far the best out of all the schools I looked at in their scholarship program," Wellems said. "For being a National Merit Scholar, KU offers a lot of great opportunities that other schools don't provide."
Each student participating in the event is allowed to invite two family members.
"My mom might come," Wellems said. "She'll have to decide if it's worth the drive all the way from Minnesota."
Sherron said the chancellor also would accompany the students onto the field at halftime.
"This is just something special we like to do for the students," she said.

Jenny Griffiths, Leawood senior, said she would get more involved if the University offered a mix between Greek and nongreek events.
"I don't really care," Griffiths said. "Our football team stinks, and it's more greek-related."
kim Kardash, a member of Delta Gamma sorority and Overland Park junior, said Greeks attended most of the homecoming events.

"I don't think that any other parts of the school do anything," Kardash said. "No one cares about homecoming. If I weren't in a sorority, I wouldn't have any idea of what is going on."

Brian Scott, Chesterfield, Mo., junior, said other schools showed spirit at the football game.
Homecoming week gives students, both past and present, time to renew their school spirit. But in the past, homecoming has left something to be desired for KU students.

together. We need that here."
Some said they simply did not feel the excitement during the week. Chris Brown, Katy, Texas, junior, said apathy ran high among students. It offered them little to look forward to, he said.
he said.
"It's not like the excitement of a high school homecoming," Brown said. "It's just another game to me."
Hall said the university offered parades, floats, alumni parties and philanthropy as part of the homecoming festivities. Still, Hall said the football game was the highlight of the week.
"The team has not won since I've been here," Hall said. "They don't treat the game any different, but the whole town comes out to see it. The attendance is the highest on homecoming day."
"It should be big," said Ronnie Miller, Milwaukee, Wisc., junior. "It's big at every other school. It's an important part of the festivities. Here, students don't support the team and therefore, it's not hyped up to be fun."
"The attendance is the highest at the football game." Hall said. "Honestly, it is an excuse to have fun. If we win, it's exciting. If not, it's not a big deal."
Other universities are known for their dedication and student support. A Kansas State University student said students took pride and participated in a full week of homecoming activities.
Whatever the reasoning, KU students generally focused their homecoming complaints on the lack of student involvement and spirit.
Other campuses share KU's low levels of homecoming participation. Laura Hall, junior at the University of Miam in Ohio, said her school also lacked homecoming spirit.
"It is good to see the school community coming together and to know that each and every student is proud of the university that they attend," Campbell said.
"Every type of student gets excited about K-State homecoming." said Courtney Campbell, a K-State junior. "The activities work to involve everyone in the spirit of the school."
While K-State has the obvious support of a strong football program, the university also
plans such activities as cookouts, bonfires, parades, community service, rallies and spirit contests. Campbell said that school devotion and homecoming spirit ran high at the university.

Actress makes U.S. debut on Broadway
The show, already a big success in London, Toronto, Melbourne and elsewhere, appears destined to do just as well in New York when it opens on Thursday, Oct. 18, at the Winter Garden Theatre.
"It always seems like a fairy tale — when you finally arrive — but what they don't see is the 20 years that went into it," the euilbent Pitre said during an interview in her star dressing room at the Winter Garden.
Plus there's the Cinderella quality of its Broadway leading lady, Louise Pitre. The unknown performer (at least unknown in the United States) was plucked from the musical's Canadian company to star in the North American tour and was then chosen earlier this year to open the show in New York.
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — There is more than just two dozen songs by ABBA at the center of Mamma Mia! There are three great roles for women older than 40, a rarity in today's musical theater.
Not only was it Streisand's dressing room, but it was also occupied by Angela Lansbury when she starred in Mame. Past occupants also include all the Griabellas — from Betty Buckley onward — who appeared in Cats during its nearly 18-year run at the Winter Garden.
"This was Barbra Streisand's dressing room — can you believe it?" said Pitre, giggling about the thought that she and the star of Funny Girl shared the same space.
Pitre portrays Donna, a freespirited single mother and former singer, whose grown daughter is about to be married on a Greek island. The girl wants to include her father in the wedding, and there are three possibilities who he might be.
Also invited are two former members of Donna's raucous girl group, the Dynamos, being played on Broadway by two theater veterans: Judy Kaye, best known for her Tony-winning role in The Phantom of the Opera, and Karen Mason, Glenn Close's understudy in Sunset Boulevard and a longtime cabaret performer.
For Mason, used to a cabaret singer's life on the road, Mamma Mia! means she will be able to stay in New York for a while. "As my husband says, 'Be careful what you wish for,' because now I have to be at the theater eight times a week," Mason said. "But we all want to do Broadway."
Both actresses are reveling in their plum assignments, characters that are not exactly ingene roles.
"women get to a certain point in their lives when they are not really wanted very much in show business," Kaye said. "I have always been a character lady of sorts — even the young parts I did growing up."

Budget woes force SRS to cut program costs
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — The state's top social services official is defending her efforts to cut program costs as necessary because the state faces serious budget problems.
Secretary Janet Schalansky said yesterday that the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services is trying to make good business decisions that won't hurt its attempts to protect children and help adults become self-sufficient.
SRS estimates that it will
need another $123 million just to meet the current demands for its services over the next 21 months, through the rest of the state's 2002 fiscal year, which began July 1, and its 2003 fiscal year.
Schalansky had a public tele conference for SRS staff, private organizations and advocates for the poor and disabled, attended by about 100 people in Topeka and another 250 at SRS offices around the state. The message of the meeting was that the state doesn't have enough money to
meet the needs in the SRS budget.
In discussing fiscal realities, Budget Director Duane Goossen noted that his staff originally expected the state to collect between $100 million and $130 million more in revenues in fiscal 2003 than in fiscal 2002.
The state already has a list of commitments, such as keeping up with employee salary, pension and health insurance costs, that more than exhaust the extra revenue expected, he said.
Cessna gives union new proposal
The Associated Press
WICHITA — Cessna Aircraft and union negotiators reached a tentative contract agreement yesterday that will give workers a raise of $11,800 in wages and benefits over three years.
The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, Local Lodge 774, is recommending its members accept the proposal in a letter posted on its Web site.
Union members will vote tomorrow on whether to accept the package, valued at $72 million over nearly three years. The current labor contract, covering
6,100 workers, expires at 12:01
a.m. tomorrow.
Cessna issued a statement saying only that the company had made a proposal. Union officials did not return numerous messages left by The Associated Press seeking comment.
Union negotiators told members that while they did not achieve all their goals, the tentative proposal does not take away any existing benefits and has many improvements.
The proposal posted on the union Web site shows the contract would give workers three wage increases totaling 11.5 percent over the term of the contract. The first raise, effective immediately, would be for 4.25 percent in wages per worker, and about $3,933 per year in wages and benefits.
Hundreds of union workers carried signs, chanting "no takeaways" at a rally Tuesday. Workers said the wage increases offered at that time were canceled out by the company's desires for workers to pay a portion of health insurance costs.
This latest proposal does not take away any existing health benefits, the union said.
Wichita lands celestial meeting
The Associated Press
WICHITA — About 300 scientists and planetarium professionals are expected to gather in Wichita next summer for a biennial gathering of the International Planetarium Society.
Known as the Olympics of planetarium meetings, the event could mean about $500,000 for Wichita businesses during the five-day convention July 28 to Aug.1.
Wichita became the host city when Morelia, Mexico dropped out in late August for "financial and political reasons," said planetarium society president Martin Ratcliffe. Ratcliffe also is director of theaters and programs at Wichita's Exploration Place, a $62 million science center and museum that opened last year.
It took Wichita only two weeks to arrange and submit a proposal to play host to the convention.
"I knew Wichita was ready," Ratcliffe said. "I knew we could host it. But the process to bid is quite long and political. Like the Olympics, it normally takes four years."
The group last met in Montreal in 2000 and will be in Valencia, Spain, in 2004. Vienna, Austria, is the leading contender for 2006, Ratcliffe said.
Wichita officials hope the convention will focus international attention on Exploration Place, the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center in Hutchinson, and Wichita's various aircraft industries.
"Wichita is a good place for international meetings." Ratcliffe said. "We will change people's opinions about what we have to offer."
Couple finds moth larvae in candy bar
The Associated Press
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — Hershey's bars aren't supposed to squirm.
Michael and Lauri Acton said they found moth larvae in their mostly eaten Hershey's bar with almonds.
amphithes.
"They were alive and moving," Laurie Acton said. "I have no idea if I ate any of them. I think back now, I remember pushing things away from my mouth because it didn't feel right. I was just munching away when I opened it up. My husband had a whole mouthful and threw it up."
They are suing.
The lawsuit against Hershey says the 32-year-old couple bought the 4-ounce candy bar April 7 at a Springfield grocery store. Lauri Acton said she spoted the moth larvae after unwrapping the last few bites of the candy bar.
Joshua K. Roberts, the Actons' attorney, and Hershey tested the candy bar and found Indian Meal moth larvae, a common kitchen pest.
Roberts said Hershey representatives had told him they didn't know how the bar became infested.
Hershey representative Judy Hogarth declined to confirm that Hershey had tested the bar, and refused to comment because the case is in litigation.
A manager at the store, which was not named in the lawsuit, said Hershey found no other infestations in the store's stock.
The suit asks for up to $128,000 for the couple, which Roberts said would keep the case out of federal court.
Roberts said the Hershey Foods Corporation initially mailed the Actons $6 worth of coupons. The company then offered to settle for $500.
"It was a complete insult," Laurie Acton said. "They're a big corporation. They should be cleaner than that. I don't care what anybody says ... it's disgusting."

Religious Advisors listed below
As an organization committed to caring for the spiritual life of students at KU, we KU Religious Advisors hope that your time here can be a time of spiritual growth. However, we encourage you to be questioners when approached on campus by persons from religious organizations.
In the last few years, KURA has received complaints from students about organizations which do not respect individual rights and follow KURA Religious Activities Guidelines, particularly the statement that all religious groups on campus will conduct their affairs in such a manner that no one will be intimidated or coerced and that participants in any group may freely express their beliefs and values. 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. If you are not sure about a group which approached you or about one you may be a part of, please contact one of the campus ministries listed below. Information and persons who care are available.

Today's Birthday (Oct. 12).
Have you taken a public speaking class yet? You'll love it. If you're already used to being in front of a crowd, you'll get even better. You'll amaze family and friends, win awards and convince people to do what you want. This year's gonna be fun.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is an 8. You and a very important person in your life need to have a long talk, perhaps during lunch. Pick a nice place, but make sure it's not too crowded. You may want to discuss a delicate topic, so you'll need some privacy.

Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 6. Get organized at work. As you go through the papers and receipts,you could find something valuable.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is an 8. You're learning even more quickly than usual. You're making a great impression on a person you admire. Keep studying.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 6. With just a little extra push, you'll be over the top. It might not be that difficult. Use your positive attitude to close the deal. Make it seem like the most natural thing in the world. This takes discipline.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is an 8.
If you say the same thing again and again, eventually people will hear it. When they do, they'll think you're saying it for the first time. This could soon happen again.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 6. The money you've been promised should finally come. Changes to your schedule can be annoying if somebody else is making them, but you can adjust. After all, it's Friday, and the moon

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is an 8. If you give your support to a strong leader, you'll be hitching a ride to success. You always do best when you have a good partner, but now you might find you have two — one for work and one for your private life. Just remember who's who.
Two people.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6. You do well as the power behind the throne, not the person in the spotlight. Besides, someone else wants the spotlight, as you've no doubt noticed. Be charming, gracious and supportive — while forwarding your own agenda, of course.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 7. You'll do best now with the help of a good partner. That way, you won't have to know everything. Find a partner who fills in your gaps.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 6. You're one of the most generous people in the world with both your time and money, but that doesn't mean you have to do everything you're asked. Be a good friend, not a doormat.

School board's ban of pledge, change of anthem under fire
The Associated Press
MADISON, Wis. — The Madison school board has been swamped with e-mail and phone calls after barring the Pledge of Allegiance and deciding "The Star-Spangled Banner" should be played without its martial lyrics.
Board member Bill Keys said the board was trying to comply with a new state law and protect the rights of students who didn't want to feel compelled to recite their loyalty to "one nation, under God."
Gov. Scott McCallum called the board "oddballs," while a Republican lawmaker proposed cuts to state funding. Parents and others have denounced the action taken earlier this week as
unpatriotic.
Joe Quick, a school representative, said the school system had received more than 16,000 e-mails and 1,000 phone calls by yesterday afternoon — almost all of them criticizing the board's decision.
Madison is Wisconsin's second-largest school system, with 25,000 students.
The state budget contains a provision requiring all public schools to give students the opportunity to sing the national anthem or recite the Pledge of Allegiance each day. The law said students could not be compelled to participate.
Madison Superintendent Art Rainwater had allowed each school to choose between the
pledge and the anthem. But some teachers and parents complained that children who did not believe in the pledge would feel pressured to recite it.
The board voted 3-2 Monday to allow only the playing of the national anthem to comply with the law — and only without the words, which some parents complained were too militaristic.
The next day, President Calvin Williams said the board would reconsider its decision at a meeting next week. Quick also said the district will participate in a nationwide event today in which all public and private schools have been asked to simultaneously recite the pledge.

NBC outbids Viacom Inc. in buy-out of Telemundo
NEW YORK — NBC said yesterday it is buying Telemundo Communications Group Inc., the No. 2 Spanish-language broadcaster in the United States, for about $2 billion in cash and stock.
Hispanic media has been expanding even as other media businesses have slumped because of the poor advertising climate, which was worsened by the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The deal would give NBC a strong foothold in the burgeoning arena of Hispanic media, which has attracted the attention of major media conglomerates because of the rapidly growing Latino population.
NBC is paying $1.98 billion for the Hialeah, Fla.-based Telemundo in a mix of half cash and
half stock in NBC's corporate parent, General Electric Co. NBC would also assume about $700 million in debt.
Sony Corp. owns about 40 percent of the closely held Telemundo, while Liberty Media, a company controlled by cable pioneer John Malone, has a 35 percent stake. The rest is held by other investors.
In an interview with CNBC, the business news channel owned by NBC. Wright acknowledged that before accounting for cost savings, the terms of deal would be "very expensive."
But he added that the companies expected numerous benefits as they combined ad sales teams, swapped programs from NBC to use on Telemundo, and made other cost savings. He said he expected Telemundo to contribute up to $600 million in revenues to NBC within two years
GE has denied frequent rumors that it wants to sell the network, and it has charged NBC's management to expand the company.
NBC is the only major network not owned by a larger media empire; ABC is owned by Walt Disney Co., Viacom Inc. owns CBS and UPN; Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. owns Fox; and AOL Time Warner Inc. owns WB.
Telemundo's reach is behind that of leading Hispanic broadcaster Univision Communications Inc., which is based in Los Angeles. But Univision has been responding to the competitive threat from Telemundo and other rivals with teams to start a second Spanish-language network, Telefutura, next year.
Healthy goal may go up in smoke
The Associated Press
ATLANTA—The number of American adults who smoke has hardly budged in the past several years, keeping steady at roughly one in four.
The figures are frustrating to health officials, who want to see the smoking level much lower by the end of the decade.
A 1999 study released yesterday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said 23.5 percent of adults — about 46 million people — are regular smokers. That is a modest decline from 24 percent in 1998 and 25 percent in 1993.
the numbers are lagging far behind that goal, set last year.
"We're happy that we're back on a downward trend, but those feelings are tempered with our recognition that we will not reach the objective without a more dramatic decline," said Terry Pechacek, physician and associate director of CDC's Office on Smoking and Health.
The government is aiming for 12 percent by 2010 and admits
Smoking dropped steadily during the 1980s. But it flattened out in the 1990s, even amid heavy anti-tobacco advertising, higher cigarette prices and a crackdown on smoking in public places.
The CDC wants more states to imitate Arizona, which saw a big drop in smoking after voters
approved a steep hike in the cigarette tax and the state launched a creative anti-smoking campaign. The popular ads blasted cigarettes as a "smelly, puking habit," and smoking dropped from 23 percent to 18 percent in three years.
Directing more prevention programs at teen-agers might help cut the smoking rate among adults, said Norman Edelman, scientific consultant to the American Lung Association.
"We have this $250 billion of tobacco settlement money out there, and just a handful of states are putting a significant amount into education programs," he said.
U.N. official addresses U.S.cities via satellite
The Associated Press
Muhammad Ali-Salaam, 55, a deputy director of the Boston Redevelopment Authority, was among 80 people who gathered in the Statehouse in Boston for the broadcast. Ali-Salaam, whose 24-year-old son is serving on a Navy aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf area, asked Annan what the U.N. had done to fight terrorism before the attacks.
BOSTON — U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan told audiences in 10 American cities yesterday that a common sense of vulnerability would keep the international community united, even on the fractious issue of fighting terrorism.
"We've been fighting terrorism for a long time," Annan said, describing the organization's work in drafting a dozen conventions on terrorism.
Annan, speaking in a town hall forum via satellite from New York, said the United Nations provided the best venue for bringing nations together after the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.
He also said the definition of terrorism could divide countries as the U.N. General Assembly began discussing a new convention on the thorny issue. He reminded audience members that "one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter."
"The sense was this could happen anywhere," Annan said, describing the feeling among diplomats at U.N. headquarters after the Sept. 11 attacks. "It's New York today; where is it going to happen next time?"
He fielded questions for about 30 minutes from the invitation-only audiences, which included civic leaders, clergy, community leaders and students. Retired CBS News anchorman Walter Cronkite moderated the forum.
In Tampa, Fla., G. Jeffrey Klepfer, dean of liberal arts and sciences at the University of Tampa, asked Annan about a recent Associated Press poll that found nine in 10 Americans said they thought the U.N. should play a major role in pulling countries together to fight terrorism.
Annan said he was "delighted" by the results of the poll, which he said showed Americans realized the importance of countries working together to solve the problem.
"That is the only way we defeat terrorism." Annan said.
The "town hall" event was organized by The Better World Campaign, created from part of a $1 billion gift from satellite television pioneer Ted Turner. The other cities addressed were Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Houston, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, Seattle and St. Louis.

Television networks wary of airing bin Laden tapes
The Associated Press
DOHA, Qatar — The chief executive of Al Jazeera television defended its policy of airing statements by Osama bin Laden yesterday, saying they are a "scoop" any news network would not hesitate to accept.
"We will continue in a high professional manner
Hamad bin Thamiralso rejected U.S. suggestions the tapes may contain coded messages and said Al-Jazeera would continue to present "opposing viewpoints."
... to cover events when and where they occur, whether that is in Afghanistan or any other country," he told a news conference.
After a conference call with National Security
Adviser Condoleezza Bice, the major U.S. television networks agreed they would not broadcast transmissions from bin Laden's al-Qaida group without first screening and possibly editing them.
Al-Jazeera, one of the Arab world's most independent news channels and the only station broadcasting from within Afghanistan, says bin Laden is using it to release al-Qaida statements because of its nonbiased reporting.
"Any organization that was able to obtain such a scoop would not hesitate to accept it," bin Thamir said.
He said broadcasting videos of bin Laden is no different from CNN's broadcasting speeches of
Saddam Hussein during the 1991 Gulf War.
"The tapes arrive at Al-Jazeera's office in Kabul in a manner I don't know about, then someone brings it to the (main) office where we as a media organization accept it," he said.
On Tuesday, CNN and NBC aired unedited a tape of Abu Ghaith praising the Sept. 11 terror attacks and warning there would be more. The networks said later they would reconsider their policy.
Al-Jazera has broadcast two videos of bin Laden and one of al-Qaida representative Sulaiman Abu Ghaith in the month since the Sept. 11 attacks.
Nobel Peace Prize rumors focus on United Nations
The Associated Press
OSLO, Norway — This year's Nobel Peace Prize is a special award at a special time.
It's the centennial of one of the world's top honors. And it comes after last month's devastating terrorist attacks in the United States, and this week's reprisal bombings of Afghanistan.
With the world anxious to curtail the spiraling violence, some Nobel watchers were guessing the United Nations and its secretary general, Kofi Annan, are top prospects to win.
Stein Toennesson, director of the International Peace Research Institute in Oslo, said that Annan and the United Nations would probably have been top candidates before the decision deadline two weeks ago and
that world dismay at the looming clash of civilizations would seem only to better their chances.
Some others nominated for the prize are known because those who sponsored them made the nominations public.
They include U.S. diplomat and peace broker Richard Holbrooke; the International Red Cross; Chinese Falun Gong movement founder Li Hongzhi; jailed Israeli nuclear technician Mordechai Vanunu; Japanese historian Saburo Lebaga; dissident Vietnamese Buddhist monk Thich Quang Do; former President Carter; former Finnish President Martti Ahtisaari; the European Court of Human Rights; Cuban President Fidel Castro and even the game of soccer.
U. N. agencies or people connected to the world body repeatedly have won the prize, but none has gone to the United Nations itself. The U.N. war crimes tribunal in The Hague, Netherlands, also was considered a contender.
The five-member Norwegian awards committee never gives hints and won't even say who was nominated — only that 136 names were received by the Feb. 1 deadline.
Geir Lundestad, the committee's secretary, said the winner was chosen on Sept. 28, 17 days after the terror attacks on New York and Washington.
"Of course, the committee was very aware of that event," he said.
At least24 men killed by fighters in Colombia
The Associated Press
BOGOTA, Colombia — Right-wing paramilitary fighters pulled unarmed people off buses and out of their homes in a southern village, killing at least 24 men after accusing them of aiding leftist rebels, authorities said yesterday.
Twelve other people are missing Despite President Andres Pastrana's efforts to negotiate an end to the 37-year civil war, the violence has been escalating across this South American country.
A wave of bloodshed has claimed at least 49 lives, including four soldiers and the mayor of a town. Twelve other people are missing and feared dead.
The massacre was one of several attacks and slayings around the country this week, most of them blamed on the outlawed paramilitaries, known as the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia, or AUC.
car country. The worst massacre took place Wednesday in Buga, an agricultural village 160 miles southwest of Bogota. Authorities have found the bodies of 24 men and are still looking for six others who are feared dead.
leared dead.
"The they took the people out of two buses and from their homes," Buga Mayor John Jairo Bohorquez told Caracol radio. "They separated the women, old people and children, and then killed the men."
people and others. Bohorquez said members of the AUC shot each of the men in the head after accusing them of aiding leftist rebels. The mayor was not immediately available for further comment because he was looking for bodies of more victims, his office said.
Luz Mary Carmona said her son had been home visiting when he was killed. She's planning to leave the village, as are many others. "Life is over here," she said.
Last year 317.375 Colombians fled their homes, the majority of them because of massacres, according the Human Rights and Displacement Council.
Also yesterday, police said the mayor of a small southern town was killed along with his driver and three other people, apparently by paramilitaries. The killing yesterday of Cartagena del Chirara Mayor Luis Elias Marin happened near the town of Montanitas, on the edge of a safe haven the government granted to the leftist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, almost three years ago.
Paramilitaries have also been blamed for the slaying of six fishermen whose bodies were found Wednesday; an attack on an army patrol the same day that left four soldiers and an AUC fighter dead; and the assassinations of two congressmen and a union leader in the past week.
unofficer in the city. Gunmen also killed three counternarcotics police and three civilians after stopping their vehicles on a highway near the Caribbean Sea, police said yesterday. The attackers' identity was unknown.
The Colombian Defense Ministry said that 303 people had been massacred through July of 2001, 199 of them by the AUC.

U.S. attacks send civilians toward Pakistani border
The Associated Press
KABUL, Afghanistan — The first daylight raid on the Afghan capital in the 5-day-old U.S.-led air campaign sent shoppers scattering in panic yesterday, jumping on donkey carts and bicycles to flee heavy explosions.
In the Taliban stronghold of Kandahar, a hit on a munitions dump set off a series of deafening blasts — and an exodus of civilians toward the Pakistani border.
U. S. planes returned to the skies over Kabul late last night, and a huge fireball lit up the sky over the eastern part of the city in the direction of a training base of Osama bin Laden's al-
Oaida terror network.
One month after the terror attacks against the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, Pakistani officials acknowledged for the first time that U.S. planes and personnel were on the ground as part of the American-led campaign against the Taliban and Osama bin Laden and that the United States had been granted use of two key bases.
Huge detonations accompanied by a howling wind could be heard yesterday from the Afghan side of the border in the Pakistani frontier town of Chaman, about 70 miles south of Kandahar.
But the air campaign is so
controversial in Muslim Pakistan that the government publicly denied any American military personnel were in the country. Pakistani officials who confirmed the American presence were careful not to categorize them as military personnel. Pakistan stressed that its territory would not be military ground.
More than 15 U.S. military aircraft, including C-130 transport planes, arrived in the past two days at a Pakistani base at Jacobabad, 300 miles northeast of the port city of Karachi and about 150 miles from the Afghan border, said Pakistani officials, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Transporting aid to Afghans by land proving problematic
The Associated Press
TEHRAN, Iran — It took a week to cross the border.
The wheat flour first reached Mashhad, the Iranian hub for relief to nearby Afghanistan. Next, a security check — picking up tidbits and rumors from World Food Program contacts across the sealed frontier.
Finally, the U.N. agency searched for Afghan truckers who appeared reliable enough not to steal the precious cargo.
"We did it," said WFP coordinator Marius de Gaay Fortman after 100 tons of flour crossed into Afghanistan on Tuesday, the first food convoy from Iran since the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States and the U.S. retaliatory strikes on Afghanistan.
But he quickly turned prag
matic. "It's just a tiny portion to meet a need that's very huge," Fortman said.
The obstacles to distributing aid are equally imposing; borders closed by Iran and Pakistan, most foreign aid workers gone from Taliban-controlled areas, scared Afghans fleeing into the remote hills. The onset of winter — and its relentless cold — is just weeks away, and some key mountain roads could soon be blocked by snow.
"For many Afghanis, it could be a death sentence," said Ray Jordan, relief director for the Irish aid group GOAL in Islamabad, Pakistan.
in a statement from Geneva yesterday, the U.N. refugee commissioner, Rud Lubbers, expressed frustration.
Even before the American bombing this week, conditions in Afghanistan were desperate. Besides more than 20 years of civil conflict, the country is experiencing its worst drought in living memory. There are nearly 3.5 million refugees in the region — about 2 million in Pakistan and up to 1.5 million in Iran, the United Nations says. The number in Pakistan alone is about 10 percent of the Afghan population.
"Unfortunately, we are not
receiving the support — in the
region or internationally — that we need," he said.
Humanitarian groups estimate more than 6 million Afghans could be stranded inside the country without access to adequate food or shelter. At least 275,000 tons of food is needed for the next five months, according to the British aid group Oxfam.
Northern alliance says it is key to winning war
The Associated Press
DUSHANBE, Tajikistan — The head of the Afghan government opposed to the Taliban militia that controls most of the country said yesterday that his small forces remained the key to defeating the Taliban, even as international forces unleashed their military might.
Burhanuddin Rabbani, whom most foreign governments recognize as Afghanistan's legitimate president, also said the U.S.-led airstrikes that began this week had not changed his forces' fundamental strategy in fighting the Taliban.
Rabbani, who is head of the loosely knit Afghan opposition northern alliance, indicated that his government regards psychological and moral pressure as critical to defeating the Taliban.
Anti-Taliban officials have been buoyed by the international airstrikes and have promised that new offensives against the Taliban were in the works.
"We have to point out that the key to carrying out this war, the main key to carrying out this war, is in the hands of the united front of the Islamic State of Afghanistan," as his government is known, Rabbani said at a news conference in the Tajik capital, Dushanbe.
The forces fighting the Taliban are estimated to number no more than 15,000, about a third of the Taliban's apparent military manpower. They have only a few score armored vehicles at their disposal and a small number of heavy artillery pieces.
"We would like to take this moment to appeal to the people who are under control of the enemy to lay down their arms and to come over to our side," Rabbani said.

New house puts sorority in prime spot
By J. M. menuoza Kansan staff writer
The members of Alpha Gamma Delta sorority took a step closer to moving into a new chapter house last weekend.
About 200 people attended a groundbreaking ceremony Saturday at the site of what will be 1521 Sigma Nu Place. The land for the sorority's house is located west of Sigma Nu fraternity.
Amy Tarwater, Olathe senior and sorority president, said the new house was being built because because members wanted to be in a more central location with other greek houses. The chapter's existing house is located at 2005 Stewart Ave.
"It gives us a chance to be more in the middle of things," Tarwater said. "This is really important to everyone."

The new chapter house is called Legacy House, said Lori Allen, chapter adviser and vice president of the house association board, which includes chapter alumni who oversee the house's operations. The house will cost $3 million to build and will have 22 four-person suites.
Allen also said Legacy House would have 28,000 square feet of space, including a fitness center, technology center, library and 24-hour quiet center. Allen said the house was projected

'Big Flag'accents game
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
The U.S. flag has 13 stripes and 50 stars,but not every U.S. flag weighs 850 pounds and is the size of a football field
Last Saturday, nearly 250 people volunteered their time to display the giant flag during the homecoming pregame ceremonies at Memorial Stadium.
"I love this country and that's why I'm here," said Lance Cpl. David Dickinson, a Marine stationed in the Kansas City area.
Clydea. Cpt. Bill Howell, Marine officer instructor at the Naval ROTC for KU was responsible for finding the volum-
teers to display the flag. He said he recruited firefighters, police, veterans, active duty soldiers and ROTC cadets from Lawrence, Topela and the Kansas City area through word-of-mouth.
"I thought it would be great to have it here," he said.
Howell said he first saw the "Big Flag" displayed at the first Los Angeles Dodgers baseball game after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
Howell said he had been approached by Allen Bohl, KU athletics director, after the UCLA game about getting veterans involved in a pregame or halftime show. The two decided after the attacks that displaying the flag and
getting veterans, active military and law enforcement officials involved would be a better way to show patriotism at the University.
The Culligan Holiday Bowl, a big 12 sponsor, lends out the "Big Flag," Howell said. A fee and expense contract usually accompanies use of the flag, but Howell said the fee was waived this time because of the Big 12 connection. The KU Athletics Department paid for the other expenses, he said.
Although the flag was displayed only a few minutes, volunteers were lined up more than an hour before kickoff to unveil the flag. Shelley Viles, midshipman fourth class in the Naval ROTC

program at KU, came out with members of her battalion to help display the flag.
The group had a practice run Thursday night to learn how to display the flag, all while trying to keep it off the ground. The practice took about three hours, but it was well worth it, Viles said.

Musicians raise money for victims
Kansan staff writer
By Eve Lamborn
Area musicians put together a program of patriotic music last night at the Lied Center to raise money for the families of victims of the Sept. 11 attacks.
University of Kansas students and faculty members joined musicians from Baker University, Washburn University and a few local high schools for the "Salute to America" benefit concert.
Hank Booth from KLZR 105.9 The Lazer was host for the event.
"The band came together tonight, not just to raise money,but to raise spirits," Booth told the crowd of about 400 which included KU students.
As the band played music that conjured images of the Fourth of July, the
audience clapped along. Audience members, many decked out in clothing covered with stars and stripes, rose to their feet with hands over their hearts and joined KU tenor Genaro Mendez in singing "The Star Spangled Banner."
Fred Six, Lawrence resident, said the concert was a healing experience for him.
concert was "The cooperation of musicians and the quality of music was outstanding," he said. "The selections were uplifting and fulfilling, and I'm thankful to the organizers for putting this event together."
Rose Lawson, volunteer usher at the Lied Center, said $3 was the suggested donation amount, but most people were giving $5 or more.
Fred Pawlicki, associate director of the Lied Center, said he would not know how much money was raised

Larry Maxey, KU professor of music, was one of the conductors last night. He said the idea for the concert belonged to Jack Brookshire, retired band director at Baker, who enlisted Maxey to help recruit band members.

Auschwitz escapee to speak of time in Nazi death camp
Rudolph Vrba, an escape from Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II, will visit the University of Kansas today and tomorrow.
He will be part of a discussion about his escape and report at 3:30 today at the Max Kade Center for German-American studies. Vrba will give a lecture called "War, Morality, and Deception: An Auschwitz Perspective with Rudolph Vrba" at 8 p.m. tomorrow at the Spencer Museum of Art.
Vrba, born in Czechoslovakia, was sent to Auschwitz in 1942 and remained there for almost two years. He wrote a report after his escape detailing the conditions inside Auschwitz and the mass murders in the gas chambers. Co-written with Alfred Wetzel, the report was the earliest account of the Holocaust to reach the Allies.
Both events are co-sponsored by the Max Kade Center, the Department of Germanic Languages and Literatures, the center for European Studies, the Humanities and Western Civilization Program, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Hillel Foundation.

Church pays property taxes on Rev. Fred Phelps' truck
TOPEKA—Westboro Baptist Church, where the Rev. Fred Phelps Sr. is pastor, paid $1,594.76 in back property taxes on Phelps' 1995 pickup truck Friday for the first time, as courts ruled the truck should not be tax exempt.
The church claimed that the truck was an extension of its property and should be exempt from taxes.
The truck's tax-exempt status has been stripped by the Kansas Board of Tax Appeal, and that decision was upheld by the Kansas Supreme Court when it denied review of the case in May 2000.
Shawnee County Treasurer Rita Cline had ordered her staff not to renew the blue truck's vehicle tags until the sum was paid.

The taxes were paid "to follow the scriptural admonition to obey the rules and laws of man," church officials said in statement. The statement said the church is preparing civil rights litigation against the governmental agencies and officials involved in the case.

Three more New Yorkers exposed to anthrax
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—A police officer and two lab technicians involved in detecting the case of anthrax in an NBC employee are being treated with antibiotics for exposure to the bacteria, Mayor Rudolph Giuliani said yesterday.
"When they were tested, minuscule spores were found." Giuliani said at a news conference.
The mayor emphasized that exposure to the spores does not necessarily mean infection and said the three are expected to be fine. Their identities were not released.
"They are being treated," he said. "This does not mean they have anthrax."
Giuliani said the police officer who retrieved an envelope containing anthrax at NBC on Friday was found to have the bacteria in his nose, as did one lab technician. Another

China to establish air police in response to terror attacks

House project dedicated to new owner
Despite recent damage House that Greeks Built finished after two years of planning
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
About 50 students, faculty, construction workers and members of the Lawrence community dedicated the House that Greeks Built to Maureen Mulally, the new owner, yesterday.
The house, located at 1721 Atherton Court, was built by the greek community and Habitat for Humanity.
The project began two years ago with a long fund-raising campaign. More recently, volunteers spent two weeks building the house. Mulally, who works as a painter at McCollium Hall, also helped with the construction.
Mulally said she was blessed to have been in a program that had touched so many lives.
And despite vandalism earlier this month of the then-unfinished house, Mulally said it was just another step in overcoming adversity.
Overcoming adversity. "There's strength in numbers, and it shows in the building of this house," Mulally said.
Kelly Jo Karnes, assistant director for greek programs, said yesterday's ceremony was exciting because the project

had been going on. "It's more than just two weeks building because we have been fund raising for almost two years," she said.
During the ceremony, Jill Shelley, a member of Habitat for Humanity, presented Mulally with a picture and a Bible. Mulally, with tears in her eyes, thanked everyone for their work.
"All I can say is I feel truly blessed and God has been really good to my family," she said.
Jennifer Bacani, Panhellenic vicepresident of community service, said she was pleased so many people had volunteered on the project. Bacani, Fredonia senior, said that at some points during construction, there were not enough tasks to be completed for all of the volunteers who came to help.
"It was neat to see people out here who have never used a hammer here before and start nailing up drywall," Bacani said.
Shae Steven, Wichita junior, said she was pleased to attend yesterday's ceremony. Steven said she was too busy to help with the construction, but helped with the fund raising for the project.
"This is amazing that we get to do this," Steven said. "This is one of the many good things the greek community does."

KU Republicans await decision about funding
Some argue the issue is a matter of equal rights others say Senate is just wary of precedents
By Luke Daley
Kansan staff writer
The KU College Republicans must wait for a special Student Senate committee task force to decide Wednesday night whether the partisan group is eligible for Senate money.
A bill to allocate $382 to the group reached full Senate for a final vote last Wednesday, but Senate decided to send the bill to the task force to research the issue. If the committee passes the bill, it will be sent back up to full Senate for a vote.
vote.
The confusion stems from a change in Senate rules and regulations last semester that provides religious and political groups the chance to ask for Senate money for items such as office supplies and postage. However, the change does not allow those groups to receive money for speakers or functions.
Matt Steppe, Student Legislative Awareness Board chairman, said last year's change in rules clearly should include the KU College Republicane
He said a 1997 U.S. Supreme Court decision made it possible for politically partisan groups to receive University money, which opened the door for the KU College Republicans. He said the hold up in Senate has to do with more than just confusion about the court's ruling.
"I think that people are looking for excuses not to fund this group, and that's wrong," Steppe said. "It's a statement about equal rights."

Matt Dunbar, graduate senator, said he didn't think the group was being singled out. He said it was important to investigate the Supreme Court ruling further, to make sure Student Senate was right in allocating money toward a partisan group.
He said it was unfortunate that the group had to wait so long for a decision, but that it was important not to establish a false precedent.
a latex preceice:
"I really felt bad that when the group came through, they got rung out a little bit more than other groups," Dunbar said. "We thought it was a little silly to have a group called the College Republicans saying that they're not partisan."
Ben Walker, former student body president, said the change in rules was made last semester with groups like the KU College Republicans in mind.
"The point of the legislation is thatany group should get Senate funding," Walker said. "We can't not fund a group because they are a political group."

CUTS HURT FORMER SWIMMER
Dear editor.
As a former KU swimmer, I am thoroughly disgusted by the recent cuts in men's athletics programs at the University, especially the decision to destroy men's swimming and diving. I am so shocked that I am almost speechless.
PERSPECTIVE
In the past, I have contributed relatively small amounts to various KU programs because of my circumstances as a graduate student. However, I have recently received my Ph.D., and am doing much better financially. My future earning potential and associated opportunities for charitable giving look quite promising. However, I am not going to donate a single dollar to the University, the Athletic Department or any other KU programs — ever.
I wish you luck with your future endeavors, but you will have to do so without my help.
The decision to cut the men's swimming and diving program has turned my fond memories of Lawrence, the University and the Jayhawks into feelings of disgust, sorrow and abandonment.

COLUMBUS NOT ABOUT PRIDE
Dear editor.
In a proclamation that designated Oct. 8 a federal holiday, the President George Bush announced that "Columbus Day should be one of deep pride for all Americans ... We honor the man from Genoa and the vision that carried him throughout his 10 week voyage."
In other words, the exaggerated adventurer must be favored over the Indigenous/First Nations/Native People who were enslaved and terminated in his name. "It is our good fortune to be an immigrant nation — to be the keepers of traditions and gifts that have come to us from great nations," Bush said.
From an uncensored point of view, so-called "Columbus Day" celebrates unconscious racism, massacres, dislocations and land grabs — "gifts" taken from great nations. Ungracious visitors who arrived in the U.S. "first on three small ships, then on many more," as Bush said, now demand that everyone eagleize terrorism and other forms of cannibalism that consume others' lives for resource-coaching profit.
hoarding proft. The invasion inaugurated by Cristóbal Colón, called Christopher Columbus in English, haunts our collective psyche. The holiday, like "Indian" mascots and most university and school curricula, authorizes presidents and professors, senators and students, to ignore the Native/Indigenous/First Nations. It sanctions bad-mannered celebrations of colonial civilization and ill-natured national fetishizations of false discoveries.
End the hate. Give back the land. Join the 509 year (and counting) effort that opposes terrorism.

A dose of skepticism needed in media coverage of conflict
The Onion got it right.
After the Sept. 11 terrorist attack, the satirical Web site nailed the news from the headline on down.
"Holy F***ing S**t" ran across the top of the page — you can fill in the blanks. It summed up the way Americans were feeling a lot better than the major networks' headlines that aimed for the astute alliteration of "America" and "Attack." (No pun inten
But their coverage got even better. One of the Onion's top stories was "U.S. vows to defeat whoever it is we're at war with." Are we going after Osama bin Laden, the article queried. Saddam Hussein? Just any old Muslim country? The story "quoted" President Bush:
"The United States is preparing to strike, directly and defensively, against you, whoever you are, just as soon as we have a rough idea of your identity and a reasonably decent estimate as to where your base is located."
Another story was given the headline, "Not knowing what else to do, woman bakes American flag cake."
Wouldn't you know it, the story had a dateline from Topeka. And the last quote in the story? "It's beautiful. The cake is beautiful."
I'm not trying to make light of the tragic events that have forever changed our country — anything but.
Instead, I'm suggesting that theo-

The Onion didn't deck out its homepage in red, white and blue; it still uses John Deere green.
nion.com — a Web site we should turn to for light humor and a reprieve from reality — succeeded where the reputable news sources of this nation have failed.
It didn't start using connotative, patriotic words and phrases like "unite" or "Day of Infamy." Or "war" — there's a good one. Where do newspapers get off putting the word war in a banner headline? The U.S. hasn't declared war since 1941 — it takes an act of Congress to do that. Bush has permission to drop a bunch of bombs.
And finally, the Onion's news anchors — if it had news anchors — sure as heck wouldn't be pinning little ribbons to their jacket lapels to prove their "American-ness" as have the many reporters we've all seen on TV during the past month.
What the *Onion* did in its reporting of the "news" was remain objective and
skeptical. It didn't rally behind every word spoken by a government that may or may not be doing the right thing.
The Onion's coverage of the attacks is something both journalists and media consumers can learn from.
Censorship is one thing — it happened in Vietnam and Desert Storm, and there's no doubt the government is going to keep some secrets from the press during the next few months.
And frankly, if it keeps democracy alive in the United States and me safe in airports, a little censorship is probably OK
But what's not OK is when journalists reporting the news slam it in a way that shows a united, patriotic America where everyone hangs a flag outside their front door and everyone wants Osama bin Laden in a million pieces across the sands of Afghanistan.
Journalists are supposed to stand away from the news in order to maintain some semblance of objectivity. They are supposed to be journalists first and Americans second—that's how we avoid self censorship.
And it's too bad we have to learn such lessons from a Web site that — by definition — is a joke.

PERSPECTIVE
Abuse also damages queer relationships
The problem of domestic violence first became nationally acknowledged as an epidemic in the late 1970s. Soon after, advocacy groups began to form to help battered women, and to educate the public. Girls started learning that it was not OK for their future boyfriends and husbands to hit them. As a culture, we finally adopted the attitude that it is not OK for a man to beat his wife.
What we don't learn is that domestic violence also happens in same-sex relationships, and that it is just as harmful. Because we are never taught about domestic violence in relation to gay and lesbians, we don't recognize signs of abuse in our relationships. We are not even told they can be abusive, and therefore have very little support and resources to turn to if we are in an abusive relationship.
Unfortunately, domestic violence is not only viewed as just a woman's issue, but is seen overwhelmingly as a straight woman's issue. This problem stems from a patriarchal society's blatant disregard and recognition of gay and lesbian relationships. We are taught that gay and lesbian relationships are shameful and unnatural, or at the very least, not "normal."

This message comes at us in extreme ways, such as Fred Phelps rallies, to more common displays of abhorrence toward queer people such as saying, "why do they have to act so gay?" But queer people feel society's heterosexism in more subtle ways also, such as

seldom seeing queers portrayed in mainstream media (unless they are committing suicide or homicide).
With a society so full of hatred toward healthy gay and lesbian relationships, how would we even begin the discussion of abusive ones? The fact is, even though the battered women's movement has been the result of numerous studies on domestic violence since the 1970s, the issue of same-sex relationship abuse is just starting to be examined. What we know from recent studies is that domestic violence does happen at about the same rate in queer relationships as in straight relationships. Many of the dynamics—such as the use of control, isolation, and the cycle of violence, are the same as in straight relationships.
However, some dynamics are unique to relationships between queer people. One such issue is the fear of being "outed." Queer people in abusive relationships not only have to come out as a survivor of domestic violence, but also as queer. Abusive partners may threaten to "out" their partner to family
There are many misconceptions about abuse between queer people. The biggest one being that it is really just "mutual fighting." It isn't. One partner has all the power and control over the other person. Another misconception is that the bigger, or "butcher" partner is the abusive one. This is also false. Even if one person is physically bigger, they can still be the victim of abuse. Just because one partner can fight back does not mean that partner will.

We have only just begun to look at the issue of domestic violence between queer people. In order for us to live in a nonviolence society, we all need to be taught about domestic violence in relation to straight and queer people. This must begin by accepting and valuing the relationships between queer people. We all deserve to live free of violence.
Domestic violence is not only a woman's issue, and same-sex domestic violence is not solely a gay and lesbian issue. We all need to begin to see and talk about domestic violence against anyone for what it is—an issue of human rights.

Duplicated votes exposed in New York mayoral race
NEW YORK — Mark Green's victory margin over Fernando Ferrer in the Democratic mayoral runoff shrank as an examination of unofficial returns showed thousands of votes were mistakenly entered more than once. Election Commissioner Douglas Kellner, a Manhattan Democrat, said yesterday the outcome was unlikely to change.
Unofficial returns reported by The Associated Press after last Thursday's election had shown Green, the city's public advocate, with 417,329 votes to 387,523 for Ferrer, the Bronx borough president.
But in an audit of the returns that began Friday, the news service found significant duplication of vote reporting by police officers who tallied the unofficial returns.
After the polls close, election inspectors at each polling place record the numbers from each machine on a sheet that is given to a police officer. The officer takes the paper back to the precinct, where the numbers are entered into the police computer system and the raw vote is sent to the AP.
Sam Boyle, chief of the AP's New York City Bureau, said the errors occurred because some police officers misunderstood how to report results in cases where two precincts had been consolidated into one polling place. For example, if there were a total of 100 votes cast in that polling place, some officers reported 100 from each precinct doubling the true number. In a few cases the same votes were entered three times when three precincts combined into one polling place.
"We have pointed out these kinds of errors to the cops in the past," Boyle said.
There was no immediate response to a request for comment from the police department's public information unit.
Smart cards catching on
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Smart cards, with their embedded computer chips, caught on more quickly among European and Asian credit card holders than Americans, who have seemed reluctant to stop swiping bank cards with low-tech magnetic stripes.
But in a terror-shaken country where security is now a priority, computer chip cards are gaining favor for a new purpose; as secure ID cards to be checked at borders and airports — and to keep tabs on immigrants.
Some corporate leaders have even called for a national identification cards that uses the technology, now found mainly on credit cards such as American
Proponents say the chip cards, which can hold far more data more securely than a magnetic strip, represent the best available technology for a tamper-proof ID.
Store a personal biometric on the card — a digital scan of a thumbprint, iris or hand — and check it against the real thing, and the identity of the cardholder is airtight, proponents say.
"It's like a PC in your pocket," says Donna Farmer, president of the New York-based Smart Card Alliance. "It's the best tool to protect privacy and fill security gaps."
Farmer's Group says North Americans' smart card use jumped 37 percent in

Attacks start immigrate debate
The Associated Press
NEW YORK He seemed eager to learn English in America. So he signed up for a four-month language course in California. Nothing seemed strange about that.
When Hani Hanjour didn't show up, the school wasn't alarmed.
A year later, he is believed to have been at the controls of American Airlines Flight 77 that plowed into the Pentagon — one of four terrorist hijackings Sept. 11 that left more than 5,000 people dead in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania.
Most of the 19 hijackers entered the United States legally with the kinds of visas routinely granted each year to millions of foreign tourists, students, workers and business travelers.
The ease with which the
"The terroist attacks reveal to the whole world how weak our immigration system is."

hijackers exploited the system has prompted calls from officials for tighter immigration laws, a moratorium on new foreign students and a narrowing of America's open door.
"The terrorist attacks reveal to the whole world how weak our immigration system is and how lax the enforcement of immigration law has been," said U.S. Rep.
Lamar Smith, a Texas Republican and co-author of a 1996 wide-ranging immigration reform law.
Some lawmakers are urging steps be taken to close immigration loopholes that terrorists might use to get across the borders and roam the country at will.
Sen. Christopher Bond, RMo., is pushing a measure that would require intelligence and law enforcement agencies to share information with the State Department and Immigration and Naturalization Service as a way of weeding out potentially dangerous visa applicants.
"The INS system is very, very inadequate," Bond said. "We haven't put the personnel in, we haven't put the resources in INS to do the job that is reasonable to expect of them."
Utah porn czar tries to teach
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — Paula Houston keeps lewd magazines and itillating advertisements safely tucked inside her desk drawer so she won't offend colleagues.
She describes pornography this wav:
leagues.
The only indication that Utah's first porn czar spends her days immersed in the intricacies of pornography is a bumper sticker proclaiming "Porn Kills Love" and an academic handbook on Prosecution of Obscenity Cases.
Houston reveals her distaste for pornography in her expression and somber tone when discussing the material sent to her office. She tries to avoid using explicit words, resorting to legal terms such as "graphic sex acts" or "indecent public display."
"It portrays a mindset that people buy into — of objectification, of not having a primary relationship. Pornography promotes free sex and that's not good for marriages or families. I absolutely believe the only way to stem the tide is through grass-roots efforts and understanding the law."
Houston has devoted her first eight months on the job to instructing others in pornography laws. She is thought to be the nation's first state official whose role is solely to fight pornography.
So far about 1,500 people have complained to Houston about explicit ads, pornographic Internet spam or partially obscured nude women on the covers of magazines.
She has heard few complaints about Penthouse, Playboy or Hustler; many calls concern Cosmopolitan — offensive phrases about sex on the cover and pictures of busty women.
Much of Houston's time is taken up explaining what makes something pornographic and why much of the material some people
find offensive is nevertheless legal. She encourages distressed parents to petition shopping malls, stores or magazines about changing their advertising policies.
Many people don't understand her job, Houston said.
She has no authority over the most frequent complaint: spam Internet porn from outside Utah. She hasn't prosecuted any cases and doesn't know of any taken to court because of her efforts.
"I'm not supposed to prosecute," said Houston, who earns $80,000 a year. "I'm supposed to educate."
educate. In addition to answering complaints, Houston gives presentations to explain the law. She delivered her most recent talk in September to about 45 Provo parents wanting advice on how to reduce sexual images in their community.
She tells them the law, hands over the appropriate complaint form, and recommends contacting authorities or writing advertisers.
Attorney General Mark Shurtleff said the 1,500 residents who called or e-mailed her office proved the job's importance. "Those are the ones that decide if taxpayers' dollars are well spent. In this state the concern about pornography is huge," he said.
At least one person who makes a living from pornography considers Houston's job a worthless effort.
Houston's position actually helps business, Larry Flynt, publisher of Hustler magazine, said by phone from Los Angeles.
"She's focusing attention on pornography, and that is good for us," he said, adding that Utah residents don't buy many issues of Hustler.
Before accepting the job in January, Houston spent 15 years as a prosecutor in West Valley City, a Salt Lake suburb, where she handled pornography cases.

Clashes leave 13 dead
The Associated Press
KANO, Nigeria — Fires smoldered in burned cars and ruined buildings in the northern city of Kano yesterday, a day after Muslim-Christian clashes left at least 13 people dead and religious tensions high.
The fighting Saturday was apparently ignited by clashes between police and an armed mob Friday following a protest by Muslims against the U.S.-led strikes on Afghanistan.
Police said they had confirmed 13 deaths in Saturday's violence, including five rioters shot by police. There were unconfirmed reports of hundreds dead but yesterday no bodies were visible on the streets.
kano's state government, anxious to play down the violence, dismissed the reports.
"To say hundreds is an exaggeration," said government spokesman Ibrahim Gwazharwa.
Some Muslims vowed more protests against the U.S.-led air strikes on Afghanistan.
But most residents expressed dismay at the fighting, saying they feared relations between Christians and Muslims in the largest city in northern Nigeria had been seriously damaged.
Government officials and some residents blamed fighting on thugs, not religious tensions.
"It is unemployed youths, both Muslim and
Christian, who are causing all the trouble," said Abdul Kadir, a university student.
But witnesses told of groups of Christian and Muslim rioters yelling religious slogans as they attacked and chased bystanders believed to be of another faith.
Government officials often deny the religious basis of fighting to avoid fueling further violence in Nigeria, which is divided between a Muslim north and Christian south.
An official said he was worried that if Christian traders in Kano fled, they would spread word of the violence, potentially igniting religious conflicts elsewhere in Nigeria.
The Associated Press
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Thousands of Islamic militants converged on a town in southern Pakistan yesterday, fighting pitched battles with police and paramilitary troops as they surged toward an air base that U.S. personnel are reportedly using.
One person was killed and 24 were injured in daylong battles around Jacobabad, police said. The desert city is the home to one of two Pakistani air bases made available to U.S. forces to support the air campaign against Osama bin Laden and his Afghanistan-based terror network.
Pakistan's military government has officially denied that U.S. armed services personnel and aircraft are in the country.

country. But on Thursday, Pakistani officials confirmed on condition of anonymity that the country's president, military ruler Gen. Pervez Musharraf, has granted the United States use of at least two air bases during airstrikes
One militant leader exhorted followers to set Shabaz Air Base in Jacobabad on fire "at any cost," and another called on Pakistan's generals to overthrow Musharraf.
Police and paramilitary troops from the Interior Ministry fired tear gas to repel hundreds of demonstrators marching toward the air base. Protesters also battled police in two villages outside the city.
In a related demonstration several miles outside Jacobabad, one demonstrator was killed and 10 were injured, authorities and protest leaders said
Militant leaders have called for attacks on Shabaz and Pasni Air Base, another installation U.S. personnel are said to be using.
Protest leaders have called for a nationwide strike today — the day Secretary of State Colin Powell is to arrive in Pakistan to discuss the antiterror campaign.
Chilean Senate may vote to lift ban on divorce
The Associated Press
SANTIAGO, Chile — As he wrapped up his performance at a Chilean campaign rally, the comedian had just one request for senatorial hopeful Enrique Krauss: "Please, sir, work for a divorce law so I can get married."
The comedian, known as El Indio, is separated from his first wife, but can't remarry because Chile is one of the few countries in the world that still bans divorce.
political establishment
The candidate, according to the daily La Segunda, made no promises. That's no surprise. Over the past 90 years, repeated attempts to break the ban have foundered on the rocks of the Roman Catholic church and the conservative
However, the issue may finally be coming up for a Senate vote.
After 12 failed attempts, the lower house of Congress passed the bill in 1997, but it languished there for four years—until last week, when a Senate committee took it up. The government, which supports the bill, had recently proposed several changes in an attempt to make it more acceptable to the senators. The committee must file a report to the full Senate within 30 days.
Among the thousands of Chileans trapped in broken marriages, few are holding their breath. The Senate has set no date for voting, and when it finally happens, the outcome will
hang on one or two votes,
says Congresswoman
Antonieta Saa.
If enacted, the Civil Marriage Law will make divorce a costly and protracted affair.
Couples will have to show a judge that they underwent counseling. Stringent rules will protect the rights of children, guarantee their schooling is paid for, and that alimony and child support are provided.
So far so good, say both supporters and opponents. But proponents of the right to divorce are unhappy with the clause requiring husband and wife to show that they have lived apart for four years — three if the divorce is uncontested.
"That's an eternity when
The intent, explained Justice Minister Jose Antonio Gomez is "to protect the families and give couples a time to reflect."
Some think the law makes things worse. "It's better being the only Western country without a divorce law than the Western country with the worst divorce law," said Jimena Valdes, who runs a think tank specializing in women's studies.
Agronomist Gustavo Rojas would welcome the law. Separated from his wife a decade ago, he said she has at times denied him the right to see their daughter, leading to frequent and costly disputes in court.
I now have a new girlfriend and we want to get
married, but we can't because my marriage is still valid," he said.
At present the only way out of a Chilean marriage is by legal separation, obtainable if either side can prove there was a procedural error in the marriage process.
The favored bureaucratic subterfuge is to show a judge that one of the spouses was not living at the address listed at the time of the marriage. It's easy enough — and generally acceptable — to pull a few "witnesses" off the street to give the needed testimony.
The result is that the marriage is declared to have never legally existed. But that leaves everyone's rights in limbo.
Paulina Veloso. It sets out "clear rules on protection of the children and the weaker party of the couple, including alimony, visitation rights and others."
"In this aspect the law is very good," said lawyer
Various opinion polls show strong support for a divorce law, but the issue remains highly sensitive, especially because of church opposition in a country 84 percent of whose population calls itself Catholic
Priests have denounced the law from their pulpits, with some urging worshipers to punish pro-divorcee members, of Congress in the December elections.
"It's divorce now, it will be abortion next and then probably marriages among homosexuals," said Pablo Lizama, a Catholic military chaplain.
U.S. enters second week of attacks
The Associated Press
KABUL, Afghanistan — U.S. jets pounded targets in Kabul and other cities yesterday as the U.S. air campaign to force the handover of Osama bin Laden entered a second week. The White House rebuffed yet another offer by Afghanistan's Taliban rulers to negotiate on the terror suspect's fate.
In the latest raids, U.S. jets destroyed Kabul's Chinese-built international telephone exchange, severing one of the last means of communication with the outside world. Residents also said the capital's historic Mogul-style Balahisar Fort, built in the early 20th century, was in ruins. The report could not be confirmed because security kept outsiders from the area.
The U.S.-led barrage has left Afghan civilians with frayed nerves, since some of the targets are close to populated areas and at least in one case homes have been struck by accident.
been struck by someone.
"There is no Osama in Kabul," bank worker Mohammed Arif said.
"Osama and his people are not living in small mud houses. Why do they attack us? We are not his supporters.
We have never seen his face."
The third most powerful figure in the Taliban, Deputy Prime Minister Haji Abdul Kabir, said yesterday that the militia was willing to hand bin Laden over to a third nation if the United States offers evidence against him and halts the bombing. President Bush quickly rejected the offer.
"There is nothing to negotiate about. They are harboring a terrorist." Bush told reporters.
The Bush administration has repeatedly refused any conditions on its demands that the Taliban surrender bin Laden and his al-Qaida terror movement — suspected in the Sept. 11 terror attacks in the United States.

This year,the showdown is a new game
Circle Saturday, Oct. 27, on your calendars now.
In just 12 days, it will be time for the war, the main event, the battle of the ages ... the ... um ... well, the Kansas-Kansas State football game.
Kansas fans haven't cared about the Sunflower Showdown since 1998. They haven't believed their Jayhawks could even be competitive, let alone win, since 1998, when they got tattooed by Michael Bishop and the K-State national championship choker squad.
kansas fans have accepted mediocrity from their Jayhawks and accepted getting their rump smacked for far too long. The series has become obscenely dominated by the Wildcats, who have won eight games in a row and outscored Kansas 314-84 during that span. No wonder you don't care.
Now it's time to start caring again.
Now it's time to start calling again.
The fact is, the Jayhawks should beat Missouri, Iowa State and Wyoming. That's five wins. The swing game that could give them that magical sixth win and make them bowl eligible comes against K-State on Oct. 27 in Manhattan.
But don't cringe at that thought as most Kansas fans would have in years past.
This is a much different K-State team. The Michael Bishop and Jonathan Beasley years are long gone. K-State now has an overrated quarterback in Ell Roberson, an overly-hyped running back in Josh Scooby and a coach named Bill Snyder, who hasn't been able to inspire his team to show any heart since its demoralizing one-point loss to Oklahoma three weeks ago.
K-State has lost three games in a row and is still the worst team in the Big 12. It's still behind Kansas and will fall even farther behind the Jayhawks when they beat Missouri this weekend at Memorial Stadium and K-State loses at home to Texas &M for a fourth consecutive loss.
The only positive for K-State is its defense, but just like Kansas, its offense can't seem to help the defense by scoring. But Kansas has an edge with its defense. K-State's defense mailed it in at Texas Tech on Saturday while Kansas' defense gave unquestionable effort against No. 3 Oklahoma and kept the game from getting embarrassing by halftime.
tigers使命挑战 Kansas has a bowl-caliber defense, which it showed against the Sooners. Kansas' offense fumbled three times inside its own 30-yard line in the first quarter, but Oklahoma came away with only one field goal because the Jayhawk defense forced a fumble and Algie Atkinson blocked a field goal attempt.
Atkinson also added eight tackles, as did co-captain Nate Dwyer. Leo Etienne had an astounding 18 tackles against the Sooners, and Marcus Rogers added nine. Cornerback Andrew Davison picked off two passes and Charlie Dennis recovered a fumble. Contributions came from everywhere, even though those guys hardly got a breather because the offense didn't stay on the field long enough for them to rest.
Kansas can't afford to look past anybody, especially not a very beatable Missouri team, because every game is critical at this point.
Regardless, the facts don't lie. Kansas and K-State match up very well this year. The possibility of Kansas winning that game is a reality this year, and the team should not be scared. It should scrap battle cries of "we're going to close the gap" (meaning lose by less than last year) and expect a victory; nothing less.
The winner will most likely go on to a sub-par bow game like the Galleryfurniture.com Bowl. It's a weak bowl with an embarrassing name, but it's still a bowl, something Kansas hasn't seen since 1995.
1995. I'd love to spend a warm Dec. 29 in Tucson, Ariz., at that bowl, but a win on Oct.
27 must come first.

Late Nightushers in season

Allen Fieldhouse was full of screaming fans as the men's basketball team was introduced for the first time this year at Late Night with Roy Williams, but the atmosphere quickly changed to one of unity for the University and the country.
Unlike previous years, the festivities began shortly after the doors opened at 7 p.m.
The fans were introduced to Al Bohl, the new athletics director, who commented on the weekend's events.
"This is a special night for KU, a special night for basketball and tomorrow's a special night for football," Bohl said.
Bohl then called student body president Justin Mills onto the floor and recognized his efforts to raise more than $30,000 for Sept. 11 relief efforts.
After Mill's recognition, the High Voltage Dance Team wowed the crowd with its break dancing abilities. The team is from Orlando, Fla., and the dance members said they had danced at several halftime shows and appeared on America's Funniest Home Videos and the Jenny Jones show.
Dancer Carrie Loeser said the members of the team began training before the dance team was created.
"I have a gymnastics background and they have break dancing, so we've all just grown up with it," Loeser said.
The usual Late Night activities started around 10 p.m. Banners displaying the jersey numbers for the men's team recruits were paraded around Allen Fieldhouse. Administrative assistants Jerod Haase and C.B. McGrath sat with recruits Kevin Bookout, Jeff Graves and Moulaye Niang.
The men's and women's teams took the court for the first time during the
singing of the National Anthem. Following the singing, the players on both teams were introduced individually.
The first skit of the night included members of the women's team with the band E-Double providing back-up. Women's basketball team senior Nikki White and freshman players Chelsey Thompson, Kathryn Nichols and Keila Beachem sang "Everywhere" by Michelle Branch.
"We practiced about a half an hour a night all week and did a lot on our own," White said. "We made up a lot ourselves this year."
White thought Late Night was an exciting time but also stressed that this was the seniors' last Late Night.
"We're looking forward to the season and practice tomorrow," White said.
Late Night is the first time the fans see the freshmen recruits, and the introductions of both basketball squads' freshmen provided some laughs. Seniors Lewis Harrison, Jeff Boschee, KC Hilgenkamp and Nikki White were in charge of the introductions.
The freshmen on the women's team are Blair Waltz, Keila Beachem, Valerie Migicovsky, Chelsey Thompson, Brandi McGinest and Kathryn Nichols. The freshmen on the men's

Sooners crush 'Hawks in Homecoming loss

The Kansas offense knew it would be tested Saturday against a stingy Oklahoma defense stacked with size, athleticism and skill.
but after an impressive 404-yard night Oct. 6 against Texas Tech, coach Terry Allen's offense was not prepared for the 11-man wall of fury in Oklahoma's starting defense.

In front of a restless homecoming crowd of 48,700 at Memorial Stadium, the Jayhawk offense piled up a mere eight first downs, 84 yards rushing and 139 yards passing against the No. 3 team in the country, which captured a 38-10 win over the Jayhawks. Seventy-eight of red-shirt freshman quarterback Mario Kinsey's passing yards came on a touchdown bomb to senior wide receiver Roger Ross when the game had already slipped away from Kansas, now 2-3.
The Sooner stampede disrupted Kansas and baffled its fifth-year head coach Allen.
"The major factor out there was Oklahoma's defense," Allen said, as he stared blankly into the video cameras at his post-game press conference. "It was a frustrating football game, but they are an outstanding defensive football team. That out there today was as good a defense as we have ever seen."
In an offensive comparison from week four to week five, sophomore running back Reggie Duncan had four more yards rushing against Texas Tech, 227, that the Kansas offense had in total yards against Oklahoma, 223. Like his coach, Duncan gave credit to his opponent's defense. The Big 12 Conference co-offensive player of the

every time.
As much as Allen praised Oklahoma's defense, he spoke fondly of his own. The Kansas front line was spearheaded by senior Nate Dwyer, who turned out his best performance of the season with eight tackles, three of which went for losses. Senior linebackers Marcus Rogers and Algie
week from the week of Oct. 6 finished with just 31 yards on 11 carries.
"The defense flies to the ball." Duncan said, who gained just one yard after the first quarter. "It felt like there were at least 12 or 13 people out there every time."

Kansas guard dazzles Late Night spectators
By Ryan Malashock Kansan sportswriter
Kirk Hinrich's play Friday in the annual Late Night with Roy Williams men's basketball scrimmage may have left some fans thinking Kansas was in the middle of its Big12 Conference season.
son.
The junior guard dazzled the 14,000 fans at Allen Fieldhouse by scoring 16 points and hitting six of his nine shots from the floor. He also led the Crimson team to a 53-33 victory against the Blue team. The teams played one 30-minute half with a continuously running clock.
Coach Roy Williams praised Hinrich at the team's preseason media day on Thursday for his hard work and dedication in the offseason.
Williams noted that he expected to see many improvements in Hinrich's game this year.
Hinrich first displayed his improved leaping ability in the impromptu pregame dunk contest.
pregame dunk contest.
"The most impressive thing has been Kirk in preseason conditioning. He's probably in better shape than anybody." Williams said. "I think he worked awfully hard in the summer. He always has been able to dunk the ball for example, but now he is dunking easier than I've ever seen."
To cap off the night, Hinrich hit a layup after spinning around Hawkins and darting between two other defenders.
Hinrich said he and Hawkins were able to joke about the play after the scrimmage.
"He was playing really good'D.'I just made a pretty good reaction," Hinrich said.

Hinrich's performance didn't overshadow what most Kansas fans were in attendance for; the debut of this year's freshmen.
Freshman Keith Langford, Miles and Hawkins played for the Blue team, while freshman Michael Lee and Wayne Simien teamed up to play for the Crimson team.
Lee led all freshmen in scoring with 8 points, and Simien added 6 points and five rebounds.

Senior Brett Ballard said the freshmen had a long way to go, especially with conditioning, but said he thought they showed intensity for their first game action.
"The freshmen all came out and played hard," Ballard said. "I know they're all real tired after the scrimage, but they'll get used to everything."
"He always has been able to dunk the ball for example,but now he is dunking easier than I've ever seen."
After having their fun at Late Night the Jayhawks began what Williams called "real" practice Saturday at 1 p.m.

[oday's Birthday (Oct. 15).]
Today's Birthday (Uct. 15).
You'll have almost everything you want handed to you on a silver platter this year, but there still a challenge to be met. First, you have to decide what it is. Second, you must decide that you deserve it. Third, you have to make it happen. Sheer intention is the secret ingredient. That, plus a little faith.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 6.
How about taking a back seat for a while and letting somebody else do the driving? Are you worried they might make a mistake? Well, they might, so don't go to sleep. Be the navigator.
Taurus (April 20-May 20), Today is a 6.
It sure is Monday, isn't it? You may wonder how all that paper stacked up so fast. You only turned away for a minute, and now there's a mountain of it. Don't fight it. Just start sorting — or shoveling it.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 9.
Any way you can get the day off? It's obvious you're not into working today. You'd rather play, and your odds of winning are good. That goes for romantic games, too.
Cancer June 22- July 22). Today is a 5.
Make extra time for yourself. Have a special treat at lunch, or buy a few little extravagances. You deserve a little pampering. Don't wait for somebody else to pamper you.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is an 8.
Since you're such an active person, some people may not realize you're also a scholar. When you get really interested in a new project, you learn as much as you can about it. You may find a book that you can't put down. Enjoy!
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 7.
By now, you know what needs. Your assignment is to provide it. Since you can't do everything for everybody, be selective. Do something that you love, something that pays well.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 9.
Venus, your ruling planet, is coming into your sign. This enhances all your natural charms and talents. You should be full of ideas and eager to start on new projects. But your sweet-heart will be drawn to you, wanting to monopolize your time. Prioritize!
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6.
You're good at pulling strings, and that's what you need to do. There are so many strings to pull now, you may feel like the sole puppet in a show with a thousand dolls. If only you could get people to be compliant. Do the best you can to sway public opinion for a worthy cause.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is an 8.
Meetings, rehearsals and public events all go
well for you now. Everybody's in the mood to
compromise, so negotiations go smoothly. You
might even broker a peace treaty between
warring nations or individuals.
P
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 5. You like to be in control, and you're good at it. But somebody also has the agenda all worked out. Go along with the program, and save your complaints until later — a week later, to be precise.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is an 8.
Is there another class you need to take to make yourself even more valuable? Maybe you should just take it for the fun of it. Even if you're starting late, you still might be able to get in.
Call and ask. You'd love it!
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 6.
You're a very creative person by nature, and for the next few days you could be awesome. This isn't easy; there's work involved. Having talent doesn't mean you get to coast. Focus, and you can make beautiful things happen.

Team rebounds after loss, ends weekend trip with win
By Steve Laurenzo Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team suffered its fourth consecutive loss Friday and then snapped the streak the following night.
Several Jayhawks put up strong numbers in Friday's match against the Tar Heels. Sophomore outside hitter Sarah Rome played a well-rounded game leading the Jayhawks in three categories with 16 kills, 19 digs and three solo blocks. Junior middle blocker Kylie Thomas had a team-high five block assists. Junior middle blocker Molly Scavuzzo added 11 kills and freshman outside hitter Danielle McHenry had 10.
Kansas lost to North Carolina (16-3) on Friday, 3-1 and defeated North Carolina State (5-11) on Saturday, 3-0. Kansas is now 12-7 on the season.
"We played hard and we played pretty well for the most part; however, so did North Carolina," coach Ray Bechard said.
The trip to North Carolina was a tale of two distinctly different sets of fans. More than 9,500 fans watched the Jayhawks lose at Charmichael Auditorium in Chapel Hill, N.C., while only 110 fans witnessed the 'Hawks win at the Reynolds Coliseum in Raleigh, N.C.
The difference in the match was hitting efficiency. The Tar Heels were more accurate than the Jayhawks, hitting 24.7 percent to Kansas' 17.6 percent.
On Saturday, the Jayhawks swept North Carolina State 30-18, 30-18 and 30-18. The Jayhawks dominated the Wolfpack with accurate shots and few errors. Kansas finished with a 25.6 percent hitting efficiency while North Carolina State hit just 7.3 percent.
just 7.5 percent.
The Jayhawks served strongly, recording 10 service aces, including two each from Rome, McHenry, freshman defensive specialist Jill Dorsey and junior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft. Kraft added a match-best 14 digs to pace the Jayhawk defense. McHenry gathered a match-best 15 kills and Scavuzzo added 11 kills.
The Jayhawks return home to begin a three-game home stand, starting with Texas A&M at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Horeisi Family Athletic Center.
"I was extremely pleased with how consistent we were," Bechard said. "We were able to bounce back from a tough, emotional loss to North Carolina the night before."

Chiefs suffer loss and more injuries
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs couldn't have scripted a more depressing day.
couldn't have scrapped more from Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers kept them winless at home and dropped them to 1-4 for the first time since Frank Gansz's last season as coach in 1988.
They lost two more starters — from an alreadydepleted lineup — to injury.
depleted in equipment. And even their fans were leaving the stadium in ambulances, after one fell from the upper deck into the crowd below in the second quarter.
"No moral victories," coach Dick Vermeil said.
"Yes, we came back. Big deal; we still get beat."
Right tackle Victor Riley broke a bone in his lower leg on Sunday and is out for the season, and cornerback Ray Crockett broke his right hand.
"When you lose a Victor Riley, who had played in four games and hadn't given up a sack and only three quarterback pressures ... he was playing good football. We'll miss him," Vermeil said.
And beaten up.
The Chiefs said the fan who fell from the top deck did not appear to be seriously injured.
The man told emergency workers he leaned forward to pick up something and blacked out, Chiefs security director Gene Barr said. The front row of the upper deck is about 30 feet above the area of the second deck where the man landed. The front row of the second deck is about 25 feet above the lower deck.
Men's cross country earns fifth place
By Matt Norton
Kansan sportswriter
Cross country coach Stan Redwine said although he was pleased with his team's performance at the Chili Pepper Cross Country Festival on Saturday in Fayetteville, Ark., he would continue to preach improvement heading into the Big 12 Conference championships in two weeks.
"We're not at a stage where we can relax," Red-wine said.
The Kansas men finished fifth in a field of 28 teams with 209 points. Third-ranked Arkansas won the meet with 45 points. Oklahoma State finished fourth, Oklahoma 12th, Iowa State 14th and Kansas State 17th.
Redwine was pleased with the men's placement, but said the team would improve as seniors Charlie Gruber and Mark Menefee continued to work themselves into shape. Gruber and Menefee ran for the first time this season Saturday.
Gruber finished one place behind Blachly in 31:53 and Meneewas was the fifth and final scorer for the Jahawks in 62nd with a time of 32:08.
Senior Brent Behrens paced the men with a 20th place finish with a time of 31:00 for the 10-kilometer race, while senior Pete Prince turned in his best performance of the season at 26th place in 31:14. Senior Brian Blachly took 50th in 31:48.
Although the three women scorers who competed at the Chili Pepper meet a year ago ran faster than they did in 2000, the women's cross country team finished in 11th place with 261 points. Arkansas won with 44 points. Kansas State was fifth, Iowa State 18th and Oklahoma 26th.
mith, rowed in. The women were just 28 points out of seventh place this season, but Redwine said he expected more from the Jayhawks.
"It was a close race in the middle," Redwine said.
"So we're not totally dissatisfied with the women's performance but there's room to get better."
Junior Katy Eisenmenger continued her competitive running this season with a 23rd-place finish of 22:22 for six kilometers. Freshman Diane Disher ran a solid race as well, earning 28th place with a time of 22:27.
a time of 22:55, junior Eve Lamborn took 77th place in 23:15 and Senior Courtney Deutsch ran 23:18 for 80th place.

Rowing team challenges itself
By Brent Wasko Kansan sportswriter
Even though the Jayhawks battled other squads, intra-team rivalry took precedence at the American Royal Fall Rowing Classic along the Kansas River.
The Kansas rowing team competed against three collegiate crews, 15 club teams and each other at an exhibition regatta yesterday in Kansas City Mo.
Coach Rob Catloth divided his team into four groups - a freshman, sophomore, junior and Canadian crew. The seniors filled in when a boat needed an extra rower.
Catloth said the Jayhawks' four boats finished third, fourth, sixth and eighth out of 18 crews, although he did not know which class finished on top. He said the regatta results wouldn't be posted until later today.
"The results aren't that important," he said. "We were just hoping to compete hard and gain some valuable experience."

first opportunity to compete at the collegiate level. Catloth said all of the freshman, with the exception of Pfeiffer, began rowing for the first time only four weeks ago.
"I think they are learning quickly." Catloth said. "They looked aggressive out there, like they were applying what we have been teaching them in practice."
Pfeiffer rowed for a St. Louis junior crew for one year in high school. She said rowing at Kansas was more difficult.
"It has been a good learning experience for me," she said. "I knew what to expect heading in, but there is much better competition than I've ever seen."
Pfeifer said the regatta was the first time the novice rowers got to meet the more experienced ones. The two groups have been practicing at different times.
"Every one got along so well," Pfeifer said. "People were joking and having fun on the bus ride there and back. We have a cool big sister-little sister program that helps build team unity."

Soccer team's ninth win sets new school record
Senior makes three goals in Colorado as Kansas wins two
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
All along, Kansas soccer team members said they knew that this year's squad was the best in school history.
Now.it's official.
The Jayhawks defeated both Texas Tech and Colorado this weekend, improving their record to 9-3 overall and 5-1 in the Big 12 Conference. Their nine wins are the most in school history, and the team has four games remaining in its regular season.
Senior forward Natalie Hoogveld
scored three goals against Colorado as the Jayhawks topped Colorado 4-0 in Boulder, Colo. yesterday.
Her performance marked the second time this year a Kansas player scored three goals in a game. Freshman forward Monica Brothers scored three goals in the Jayhawks' 5-3 victory against Oklahoma State on Sept. 30.
With the loss, Colorado dropped to 1-9-1 overall. The Buffaloes are 0-5-1 in the Big 12.
Behind a two-goal outing by freshman forward Rachel Gillfillan, Kansas had opened the weekend by edging Texas Tech 3-2 in Lubbock, Texas on Friday. All three Jayhawks scores came in the first half.
Hoogveld started her own assault against Colorado in that game's 18th
minute, taking a pass from senior forward Hilla Rantala and putting it past Buffalo goalkeeper Whitney Peterson. Four minutes later, Hoogveld was back for more, knocking in a shot on the right side of goal. Kansas freshman midfielder Stacey Leeper recorded her second assist of the season. Hoogveld completed her hat trick in the 60th minute, off of another Rantala assist.
Brothers finished the scoring in the 80th minute with her sixth goal of the season, scoring off of an assist by freshman goalkeeper Meghan Miller. Miller had three saves en route to her third shutout of the season. Hoogveld's three goals made her career goal total 17, extending her school record.
Coach Mark Francis said he was pleased at his team's refusal to back
"Going in to the game, we talked about playing consistent soccer for 90 minutes," he said. "For the most part, our level of intensity was really high."
down.
Texas Tech (3-11 overall, 0-6 in the Big 12) rebounded quickly, as Red Raider forward Melanie Brosnahan scored just four minutes later, tying the game 1-1.
Against Texas Tech Friday, Gilfillan started the scoring in the 24th minute, taking a feed from junior midfielder Brooke Jones.
Sophomore Lacey Woolf put Kansas ahead 2-1 in the 38th minute off of an assist by junior defender Nikki Wahle. The goal was Woolf's first of the season.
Gilfillan gave the Jayhawks breathing room in the 41st minute, scoring her second goal of the match. Kansas senior
midfielder Melanie Schroeder was credited with the assist, her fifth assist of the year.
The only scoring in the second half was a Texas Tech goal on a penalty kick in the 90th minute. It was too little, too late.
"We had some chances to score in the second half, we just didn't finish them," Francis said. "This is a tough place to play so we are happy to come in here and get the win."
get the win!
The remainder of Kansas' regular season schedule will be played at home, starting at 4 p.m. on Friday with a game against No. 10 Texas A&M at Super Target Field.
Swimming team splashes through busy intersquad meet
Contact Wood at 864-4858

A combination of whistles, screams, cheers, splashes and an inaudible public address announcer created a teeth-rattling experience for those who attended the annual Crimson and Blue meet Friday night in Robinson Center.
The meet divided the Jayhawk swimming team in two, with sophomores and juniors swimming for the Blue team and freshmen and seniors competing for the Crimson. The meet featured a 16 events, but the team did not keep track of the score during the meet, focusing instead on individual marks.
The first event of the evening was a 400-yard relay. The Crimson team captured the victory
with a time of 4:00.24. The Blue team, finished with a time of 4:03.00.
In the 1,000-yard individual medley, sophomore Sarah Ross brought home the victory for the Blue team with a time of 10:32.80.
Senior Swimmer Carrie Kirkham said that the times in the meet weren't the best the team could do.
were the best we were all really tired from practice this week," Kirkham said. "So, we didn't make our best times."
After training in Clinton Lake two to three times per week since Labor Day only to have the lake race against Southern Illinois University canceled because of low temperatures, the Jayhawks have turned their attention indoors.
"We have stepped up our training week by week and we are looking for improvements in all events from last weekend," coach Cathy Burgess said. "The 16 different events provides us a chance to look at everyone on the squad in several different races."
The Jayhawks brought home a 116.5-88.5 victory in their first indoor dual meet at Southern Illinois University on Friday, Oct. 5. Kirkham led the team to victory with two individual wins. Kirkham was also part of the firstplace 200-meter medley relay team along with sophomore Shanell Salzman, freshman Miranda Isaac and senior Sarah Holke.
Although most of the individual swimming events weren't very competitive at the Crimson and Blue meet, overall, the score
between the teams was very close. The Blue team led slightly in the first half of the meet, winning four events, while the Crimson team took three, with neither team winning more than two events in a row. But, The Crimson team prevailed, pulling out a hard-fought victory from the Blue team.
The event served as a warm-up for next week's Big 12 relays in Columbia, Mo. Kirkham said she expected that the team would improve on its performance in the Crimson and Blue meet.
Crimson and blue shoes "I think we'll do really well in Columbia," she said. "We have a really good sprint team, so we'll do well in the relays. We also have a good freshman class, and they are really good sprinters, so we'll do well."

Women's golf prepped, eager to compete at home tourney
Bv John Domoney
Kansan sportswriter
Today, Kansas coach Nicole Hollingsworth will lead a team playing host to its first tournament in her three years at Kansas.
The Jayhawks are holding the Marilynn Smith/Sunflower Invitational at Alvamar Golf Course. The tournament will begin today and finish tomorrow.
The tournament presents Kansas with an opportunity to play in front of its fans and defend its home turf against the 17 teams that have traveled to Lawrence to compete.
compete. "I've been here three years, and we've never played at home."
Hollingsworth said. "The fan support will be great and a lot of players have parents in. It's going to be a fun tournament for us."
Not only does Hollingsworth expect a cheering section, she said that her team also could reap the benefits of knowing the tricks of Alvamar's tricky holes.
"We've got some really good teams coming in here," Hollingsworth said. "For us it will be an advantage because the finishing holes on the back can be difficult. Hopefully we can have a good stretch of the last four holes because we've played them so many times."
Kansas is coming off its
appearance in the Women's Collegiate Shootout last week, where the team shot its two best rounds of the fall season. Hollingsworth said that performance showed her that her players were close to turning the corner before they head into the winter break.
"I think we're starting to see a glimpse of some good stuff," Hollingsworth said. "This week we have to play well in our home tournament and it has to come together for us."
One Jayhawk who is beginning to hit her stride is junior Heather Rose. Rose entered the fall as one of the players whom Hollingsworth was counting on
to lead the team with her performance and leadership.
Rose has yet to disappoint.
Rose has yet to enter Entering today's play Rose carries a cool confidence after she shot a career — and tournament — best 229 at the Women's Collegiate Shootout.
"Personally I'm very confident," Rose said. "My short game has really improved thanks to the awesome facility that we just got."
Along with Rose, the Jayhawks will be led by their normal starting rotation of juniors Tiffany Kruggel, Jill MacDonald and Kristy Straub, along with sophomore Jennifer Bawanan. Competing individually for Kansas is hun-
ior Jennifer Cassell and freshmen Lauren Phlegar and Meredith Winklemann.

Straub is off to a slow start this fall, but Hollingsworth said Straub was lucky to even be playing golf after she had wrist surgery this summer and had to sit out during summer tournaments before returning to action on Aug. 1.
Hollingsworth hoped Straub could get off to a fast start today and finish well after she tied for 12th in last year's Marilynn Smith/Sunflower Invitational.
"She always plays well at Alvamar," Hollingsworth said. "Hopefully this is the step she
needs to get in the right direction."
The tournament is the team's last until February.
Hollingsworth stressed that today's and tomorrow's rounds would sit with her players all winter.
"We have to finish well because with this tournament we have no excuses because this is our home track," Hollingsworth said. "This is all they'll think about going into spring."

The men's freshman players then removed their warm-ups to show off the old-school uniforms and short shorts they were wearing.
Coach Roy William gave the prank a good review.
"The funniest part of the night was the short shorts," Williams said.
Williams said Late Night primarily gave the fans a chance to
see the freshmen for the first time, but he said the poor sound system in Allen Fieldhouse made it difficult for fans to hear and enjoy the skirts.
"I was embarrassed and felt for the kids," Williams said.
After the short-shorts spoof, freshmen from both teams competed in a relay that the women won.
Instead of the usual imitation of a Top Ten List by David Letterman, this year the Top Ten was the top ten reasons fans, players and recruits should have pride in Kansas basketball.
Kansas basketball When Lewis Harrison announced that the No. 9 reason for pride was former players Wilt Chamberlain and Lynette Woodard, Woodard, who is now an assistant coach for the women's team, received a standing ovation from the crowd.
Senior Jeff Carey announced that the No. 1 reason was that Kansas realized basketball was just a game.
As a unity banner was dropped from the ceiling of the fieldhouse, Carey announced that unity would be the theme for this season's teams.
The crowd erupted in a chant of "U.S.A."
Next to take the stage with E-Double were the Jon Bon Jayhawks. Seniors Jeff Carey and Todd Kappelmann sang Bon Iovi's "Dead or Alive."
"It was fun. Whether I
sounded good, I don't know," Carey said. "Late Night's fun but reality hits tomorrow."
Williams said his players needed to stick to lip-syncing.
"I wish I could convince my players they can't sing," Williams said.
The women took the court again as seniors Selena Scott, KC Hilgenkamp, Nikki White, Katie Hannon and Kristin Geoffroy danced to the Destiny's Child song "Bootylicious."
The rest of the women's team joined them on the court to dance to "Where the Party At" by jugged Edge.
The women circled up and even Head Coach Marian Washington joined in the dancing.
After the women's celebration, Brett Ballard donned a gray wig and did an imitation of coach Williams.
After huddling for a final play to win a game, the Jayhawks executed Ballard's plan perfectly but then realized he was not Williams.
"No I'm not," Ballard said. "But I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night."
"Hopefully he doesn't take it out on me tomorrow." Ballard said about Williams' reaction to the imitation.
The freshmen took the stage again as the Jackson Five.
They introduced their moms to the crowd and dedicated the song to them.
"We miss you and we love you," Aaron Miles said to the men's moms.
The rest of the men's team joined the freshmen on the court to dance to "Change the Game" by Jay-Z. Williams and the assistant coaches were also dragged onto the floor to dance with their队.
At midnight, the basketball team took to the court to warm up for the Crimson and Blue scrimmage.
Basketball season had offi cially begun.

Women's team enjoys Late Night
By Eric Flaton Kansan sportswriter
Not to be outdone by Kansas men's basketball coach Roy Williams, women's basketball coach Marian Washington stepped out onto the court Friday night and shook her groove thing.
Washington stood up, walked out and danced in a circle of her own players.
Her team showcased its own
talents as both teams celebrated Late Night with Roy Williams, marking the start of their preseason practice schedules.
The team sang together and then danced to "Moulin Rouge."
"I think everybody had a great time, and I think it was a really good event," said senior KC Hilgenkamp.
"I think it builds a lot of team spirit," said Hilgenkamp. "It brings all of us together and we
are working together every single night to go out there."
Washington said she hoped the team's performance at Late Night would draw more fans out to women's basketball games this year.
"We'll we keep working on it and I think it is just a matter of getting constant exposure," she said.

Sooner breaks touchdown record
By Jeff Denton
Kansan sportswrite
Oklahoma quarterback Jason White saw the match up he craved Saturday night at the Jayhawks at Memorial Stadium: 6-foot-4 tight end Trent Smith paired with 5-foot-10 cornerback Matt Jordan.
Smith dropped his first pass, but Oklahoma did not lose sight of using his size to exploit the Jayhawk secondary. After the first quarter drop, Smith put together one of the most impressive performances by a tight end in Oklahoma football history.
"Trent Smith was tremendous," said Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops. "He set a school record."
His longest catch was for a modest 12 yards. But it was never about how far down the field Smith was before he caught the football. It was more about where he caught it.
Four of his 11 catches came in the Kansas end zone.
"They just went to him," said the Jayhawks defensive coordinator Tom Hayes. "A lot of times we
had a smaller guy on him, and so they just said, "We have a guy who is 6-foot-4, and we're just going to throw it up and see if he could out-jump him." And he did."
To break the record of three touchdowns, Smith snared a bullet pass with 12:29 to go in the game. Smith was wide open as he cradled the ball into his chest in the back of the end zone.
Smith's record day was done, and by that time, so were the Jayhawks, 38-10.

Football: Too many what ifs
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Atkinson combined for 17 tackles and junior Leo Etienne blanketed the field from sideline to sideline with 18 stops.
Atkinson thought that the defense played well enough to hang around with the defending National Champions, but that the unit fatigued in the second half.
"After a while we got pretty tired," Atkinson said. "But at that point, the score was out of reach. Our offense wasn't really producing a lot. It's a question mark right now, but it's not right to point the finger. It's not going to get us anywhere if we point the finger at the offense."
Allen said if his offense hadn't committed three costly turnovers in the first quarter, or if it had started out with better field position or was more productive running the option, then the outcome could have been different.
"We couldn't get out of our own end," Allen said. "That created the great field position for Oklahoma, and that's why you have to be complimentary to
our defense. It was just anemic offensively, but we are not the only ones to be in that position against Oklahoma. And we won't be the last."
Senior cornerback Andrew Davison excelled Saturday against No. 3 Oklahoma. The 5-foot-11 senior from Detroit had four pass deflections, four tackles and two interceptions.
The two interceptions brought his Kansas total to six for his career. Davison was proud of his play, but he said he would have sacrificed both of his interceptions for a Kansas victory.
"If we would have beat Oklahoma, we probably would have been the first highlight on ESPN," Davison said. "I would have given the interceptions up for a win. Nothing is important as a win."
The pounding of Oklahoma's defense held key members of Kansas' starting offense. Four starters had to leave Saturday's game because of injury.
Junior right guard Kyle Grady suffered a bruised MCL in his right knee. Wide receiver
and hero from the Texas Tech game, Termaine Fulton, senior, left in the second quarter with a shoulder contusion. Neither returned.
Duncan rolled an ankle in the third quarter and played sparingly before taking himself out. Kinsey suffered a injured toe before halftime, sat out to start the third quarter, but came back and played through the pain in the game's final 15 minutes.
Duncan and Kinsey's injuries appeared to be the least serious of the four.
"I remember Roy Williams tackling me and rolling my ankle," Duncan said. "But if it was a close game, I think that I would have tried to play."
■ Senior defensive tackle Ervin Holloman, who missed last week's 34-31 victory against Texas Tech to attend his mother's funeral, started Saturday against the Sooners.
The 6-foot-5, 292-pounder from Wichita had two tackles, one of which went for a loss.

"END STATES WHO SPONSOR TERRORISM" By Leonard Peikoff
Fifty years of increasing American appeasement in the Mideast have led to fifty years of increasing contempt in the Muslim world for the U.S. The climax was September 11, 2001.
Fifty years ago, Truman and Eisenhower surrendered the West's property rights in oil, although that oil rightfully belonged to those in the West whose science, technology, and capital made its discovery and use possible. The first country to nationalize Western oil, in 1951, was Iran. The rest, observing our frightened silence, hurried to grab their piece of the newly available loot.
The cause of the U.S. silence was not practical, but philosophical. The Mideast's dictators were denouncing wealthy egotistical capitalism. They were crying that their poor needed our sacrifice; that oil, like all property, is owned collectively, by virtue of birth; and that they knew their viewpoint was true by means of otherworldly emotion. Our Presidents had no answer. Implicitly, they were ashamed of the Declaration of Independence. They did not dare to answer that Americans, properly, were motivated by the selfish desire to achieve personal happiness in a rich, secular, individualist society.
The Muslim countries embodied in an extreme form every idea—selfless duty, anti-materialism, faith or feeling above science, the supremacy of the group—which our universities, our churches, and our own political Establishment had long been upholding as virtue. When two groups, our leadership and theirs, accept the same basic ideas, the most consistent side wins.
After property came liberty. "The Muslim fundamentalist movement," writes Yale historian Lamin Sanneh, "began in 1979 with the Iranian [theocratic] revolution ..." (NYT 9/23/01). During his first year as its leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, urging a Jihad against "the Great Satan," kidnapped 52 U.S. diplomatic personnel and held them hostage; Carter's reaction was fumbling paralysis. About a decade later, Iran topped this evil. Khomeini issued his infamous Fatwa aimed at censoring, even outside his borders, any ideas uncongenial to Muslim sensibility. This was the meaning of his threat to kill British author Rushdie and to destroy his American publisher; their crime was the exercise of their right to express an unpopular intellectual viewpoint. The Fatwa was Iran's attempt, reaffirmed after Khomeini's death, to stifle, anywhere in the world, the very process of thought. Bush Sr. looked the other way.
After liberty came American life itself. The first killers were the Palestinian hijackers of the late 1960s. But the killing spree which has now shattered our soaring landmarks, our daily routine, and our souls, began in earnest only after the license granted by Carter and Bush Sr.
Many nations work to fill our body bags. But Iran, according to a State Department report of 1999, is "the most active state sponsor of terrorism," training and arming groups from all over the Mideast, including Islamic Jihad, Hamas, and Hezbollah. Nor is Iran's government now "moderating." Five months ago, the world's leading terrorist groups resolved to unite in a holy war against the U.S., which they called "a second Israel"; their meeting was held in Teheran. (Fox News 9/16/01)
What has been the U.S. response to the above? In 1996, nineteen U.S. soldiers were killed in their barracks in Saudi Arabia. According to a front-page story in The New York Times (6/21/98): "Evidence suggesting that Iran sponsored the attack has further complicated the investigation, because the United States and Saudi Arabia have recently sought to improve relations with a new, relatively moderate Government in Teheran." In other words, Clinton evaded Iran's role because he wanted what he called "a genuine reconciliation." In public, of course, he continued to vow that he would find and punish the guilty. This inaction of Clinton's is comparable to his action after bin Laden's attack on U.S. embassies in East Africa; his action was the gingerly bombing of two meaningless targets.
Conservatives are equally responsible for today's crisis, as Reagan's record attests. Reagan not only failed to retaliate after 241 U.S. marines in Lebanon were slaughtered; he did worse. Holding that Islamic guerrillas were our ideological allies because of their fight against the atheistic Soviets, he methodically poured money and expertise into Afghanistan. This put the U.S. wholesale into the business of creating terrorists. Most of them regarded fighting the Soviets as only the beginning; our turn soon came.
For over a decade, there was another guarantee of American impotence: the notion that a terrorist is alone responsible for his actions, and that each, therefore, must be tried as an individual before a court of law. This viewpoint, thankfully, is fading; most people now understand that terrorists exist only through the sanction and support of a government.
We need not prove the identity of any of these creatures because terrorism is not an issue of personalities. It cannot
be stopped by destroying bin Laden and the al-Qaeda army, or even by destroying the destroyers everywhere. If that is all we do, a new army of militants will soon rise up to replace the old one.
The behavior of such militants is that of the regimes which make them possible. Their atrocities are not crimes, but acts of war. The proper response, as the public now understands, is a war in self-defense. In the excellent words of Paul Wolfowitz, deputy secretary of defense, we must "end states who sponsor terrorism."
A proper war in self-defense is one fought without selfcrippling restrictions placed on our commanders in the field. It must be fought with the most effective weapons we possess (a few weeks ago, Rumsfeld refused, correctly, to rule out nuclear weapons). And it must be fought in a manner that secures victory as quickly as possible and with the fewest U.S. casualties, regardless of the countless innocents caught in the line of fire. These innocents suffer and die because of the action of their own government in sponsoring the initiation of force against America. Their fate, therefore, is their government's moral responsibility. There is no way for our bullets to be aimed only at evil men.
The public understandably demands retaliation against Afghanistan. But in the wider context Afghanistan is insignificant. It is too devastated even to breed many fanatics. Since it is no more these days than a place to hide, its elimination would do little to end terrorism.
"If our appeasement has led to an escalation of disasters in the past, can it do otherwise in the future? The survival of America is at stake. The risk of a U.S. overreaction, therefore, is negligible. The only risk is underreaction."
Terrorism is a specific disease, which can be treated only by a specific antidote. The nature of the disease (though not of its antidote) has been suggested by Serge Schmemann (NYT 9/16/01). Our struggle now, he writes, is "not a struggle against a conventional guerrilla force, whose yearning for a national homeland or the satisfaction of some grievance could be satisfied or denied. The terrorists [on Tuesday] . . . issued no demands, no ultimatums. They did it solely out of grievance and hatred—hatred for the values cherished in the West as freedom, tolerance, prosperity, religious pluralism and universal suffrage, but abhorred by religious fundamentalists (and not only Muslim fundamentalists) as licentiousness, corruption, greed and apostasy."
Every word of this is true. The obvious implication is that the struggle against terrorism is not a struggle over Palestine. It is a clash of cultures, and thus a struggle of ideas, which can be dealt with, ultimately, only by intellectual means. But this fact does not depreciate the crucial role of our armed forces. On the contrary, it increases their effectiveness, by pointing them to the right target.
Most of the Mideast is ruled by thugs who would be paralyzed by an American victory over any of their neighbors. Iran, by contrast, is the only major country there ruled by zealots dedicated not to material gain (such as more wealth or territory), but to the triumph by any means, however violent, of the Muslim fundamentalist movement they brought to life. That is why Iran manufactures the most terrorists.
If one were under a Nazi aerial bombardment, it would be senseless to restrict oneself to combatting Nazi satellites while ignoring Germany and the ideological plague it was working to spread. What Germany was to Nazism in the 1940s, Iran is to
terrorism today. Whatever else it does, therefore, the U.S. can put an end to the Jihad-mongers only by taking out Iran.
Eliminating Iran's terrorist sanctuaries and military capability is not enough. We must do the equivalent of de-Nazifying the country, by expelling every official and bringing down every branch of its government. This goal cannot be achieved painlessly, by weaponry alone. It requires invasion by ground troops, who will be at serious risk, and perhaps a period of occupation. But nothing less will "end the state" that most cries out to be ended.
The greatest obstacle to U.S. victory is not Iran and its allies, but our own intellectuals. Even now, they are advocating the same ideas that caused our historical paralysis. They are asking a reeling nation to show neighbor-love by shunning "vengeance." The multiculturalists—rejecting the concept of objectivity—are urging us to "understand" the Arabs and avoid "racism" (i.e., any condemnation of any group's culture). The friends of "peace" are reminding us, ever more loudly, to "remember Hiroshima" and beware the sin of pride.
These are the kinds of voices being heard in the universities, the churches, and the media as the country recovers from its first shock, and the professoriate al. feel emboldened to resume business as usual. These voices are a siren song luring us to untroubled sleep while the fanatics proceed to gut America.
Tragically, Mr. Bush is attempting a compromise between the people's demand for a decisive war and the intellectuals' demand for appeasement.
It is likely that the Bush administration will soon launch an attack on bin Laden's organization in Afghanistan and possibly even attack the Taliban. Despite this, however, every sign indicates that Mr. Bush will repeat the mistakes made by his father in Iraq. As of October 1, the Taliban leadership appears not to be a target. Even worse, the administration refuses to target Iran, or any of the other countries identified by the State Department as terrorist regimes. On the contrary, Powell is seeking to add to the current coalition these very states—which is the equivalent of going into partnership with the Soviet Union in order to fight Communism (under the pretext, say, of proving that we are not anti-Russian). By seeking such a coalition, our President is asserting that he needs the support of terrorist nations in order to fight them. He is stating publicly that the world's only superpower does not have enough self-confidence or moral courage to act unilaterally in its own defense.
For some days now, Mr. Bush has been downplaying the role of our military, while praising the same policies (mainly negotiation and economic pressure) that have failed so spectacularly and for so long. Instead of attacking the roots of global terrorism, he seems to be settling for a "guerrilla war" against al-Qaeda, and a policy of unseating the Taliban passively, by aiding a motley coalition of native tribes. Our battle, he stresses, will be a "lengthy" one.
Mr. Bush's compromise will leave the primary creators of terrorism whole—and unafraid. His approach might satisfy our short-term desire for retribution, but it will guarantee catastrophe in the long term.
As yet, however, no overall policy has been solidified; the administration still seems to be groping. And an angry public still expects our government not merely to hobble terrorism for a while, but to eradicate it. The only hope left is that Mr. Bush will listen to the public, not to the professors and their progeny.
When should we act, if not now? If our appeasement has led to an escalation of disasters in the past, can it do otherwise in the future? Do we wait until our enemies master nuclear, chemical, and biological warfare?
The survival of America is at stake. The risk of a U.S. overreaction, therefore, is negligible. The only risk is underreaction.
Mr. Bush must reverse course. He must send our missiles and troops, in force, where they belong. And he must justify this action by declaring with righteous conviction that we have discarded the clichés of our paper-tiger past and that the U.S. now places America first.
There is still time to demonstrate that we take the war against terrorism seriously as a sacred obligation to our Founding Fathers, to every victim of the men who hate this country, and to ourselves. There is still time to make the world understand that we will take up arms, anywhere and on principle, to secure an American's right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness on earth.
The choice today is mass death in the United States or mass death in the terrorist nations. Our Commander-In-Chief must decide whether it is his duty to save Americans or the governments who conspire to kill them.

NBC to feature rescue workers' stories from Sept.11 attack
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — When the producers of Third Watch decided to provide a forum for New York rescue workers to tell their Sept. 11 stories, they were worried about appearing exploitative.
But John Wells, executive producer of the NBC drama based in New York, said it quickly became clear that firefighters, police officers and paramedics welcomed the chance to talk.
Wells conducted most of the interviews for the two-hour special airing 7 p.m. CDT today.
"I asked three questions and somebody would speak for 45 minutes," Wells told a telephone news conference.
"These are people who want to tell their stories and who want to
make sure their stories are heard."
"They had a kind of courage and dedication that I'm not sure I could ever possess," he said.
Some of the safety and rescue workers in the special are a regular part of Third Watch, serving either as consultants or actors. The ensemble drama is about police, fire and paramedic workers on the 3-11 p.m. watch.
The series obtained permission from New York police and fire officials for the interviews with more than 40 people. Wells said more than 60 hours of film resulted.
Actors in the series sat in on the interview sessions and will be seen in the special, NBC said.
While shooting was under way at one station house, Wells recalled, some of the firefighters'
wives showed up.
He was going to call off the interviews out of respect but found the spouses were eager to be heard.
One commented that "for $40,000 a year," the firefighters ran into a burning building while everybody else fled, Wells said.
"These are people who deeply cared about their job," he said.
Among the thousands lost in the terrorist destruction of the World Trade Center's twin towers were 343 firefighters and 23 police officers.
The drama's next two episodes will be tied to the attacks that brought down the towers: The Oct. 22 episode is set the day before and the Oct. 29 episode takes place a week after.

STILLWATER, Okla. — Chris Simmts the career-best five
touchdown passes, two to Roy Williams in the final 25 seconds of a 31-point second quarter, as Texas beat Oklahoma State.

Texas A&M,which trailed 24-14 early in the final quarter, got a quick
touchdown on Mark Farris' third TD pass of the game.
The Aggies (5-1, 2-1 Big 12) then appeared to be driving for a field goal and possible TD when Farris was sacked from behind by Mossoni.
Craig Ochs directed Colorado (5-1, 3-0) to 18 straight points as the Buffalooes rallied from a 14-6 deficit to take a 10 point advantage.
COLUMBIA, Mo. — It's becoming clear that Iowa State's run to a bowl game last season wasn't just a one-year wonder, and if the Cyclones 4-1 record so far this season isn't enough, coach Dan McCarney is ready to personally convince anyone who says otherwise.
"It's one game," McCarney said Saturday after Iowa State rebounded from an ugly loss to Nebraska by beating Missouri 20-14 at Faurot Field.
Iowa State 20,
Missouri 14
"It's another victory, but a fire burns inside me ever since that stuff started being written and talked about. There isn't a day goes by I don't think about it."
McCarney was referring to suggestions that last year's 9-3 record and win in the Insight.com Bowl, the Cyclones first bowl appearance since 1978 and first bowl win ever, were little more than flukes.
Before last year, McCarney's previous best at Iowa State
was 1999's 4-7 campaign.Now having matched that win total five games into this season,the Cyclones (2-1 Big 12) seem poised for another winning season and a return trip to a bowl game.

Anthrax fear keeps local newspapers ready to react
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
The fear of anthrax reached The Kansas City Star last Friday, and the U.S. Senate received a letter containing the potentially lethal substance yesterday, causing newspapers throughout Kansas to take extra precautions handling their mail.
Dennis Richards, mid-shift foreman at The Star mail room, said the bioterrorism scare occurred Friday afternoon, but there turned out to be no anthrax in the "suspicious envelope."
Regardless, the newspaper is making sure that safety precautions are being taken.
"We're trained on what to look for," Richards said. "I'm going to be cautious, but I'm not going to let it ruin my day."
run my day.
Ram Stoeckwell, vice president of Human Resources at The Star, said that measures had been taken to protect against suspicious mail that could contain anthrax, but that business would go on as usual.
ness would go on. "We've retrained all of our mail room staff new ways on how to handle the mail." Stowell said.
He said no one without the proper identification would be allowed in the mail room.
The Wichita Eagle has not received any mail containing anthrax, but that doesn't mean that precautions aren't being taken.
Rick Thames, editor of The Eagle, said that latex gloves were being used by mailroom staff members who handled the mail.
He said that he didn't sense any anxiety among reporters or newsroom staff members because of the recent anthrax mail scares in Florida, New York, Nevada and the U.S. Capitol.
"I don't get any sense that anyone is on edge about it," Thames said. "It probably bothers some people more than others."
Thames said it was probably wise for all news organizations to be on alert.
Jeff Burkhead, executive director of the Kansas Press Association, said that he had visited The Eagle last Friday and suggested what precautions should be taken by the media.
"I think that with the anthrax scare and the other alerts that have been made, Kansas newspapers should take any precautions necessary to protect their employees," Burkhead said. "I don't think we're immune in the Midwest."

Dennis Dailey, professor of social welfare, talks to his sexuality class about male states of arousal yesterday. Dailey will teach the class next spring to allow more students to take it before he retires.
Popular sex class added to spring schedule
Students have chance to take campus favorite until professor retires
By Eve Lamborn
Kansan staff writer
Dennis Dailey will teach his popular "Human Sexuality in Everyday Life" class this spring, instead of teaching it only in the fall as he usually does.
Dailey said he was in the middle of a phased retirement program and would retire altogether within three years. So he wanted to make sure as many students as possible had the chance to take his class before he leaves the University.
'The issue for me was, 'How do I want
to spend my last couple of years, how do I want to spend my energies?" Dailey said. "The more I thought about it, what gave me the greatest pleasure was to provide that academic opportunity for as many undergraduate students as possible."
Matt Dykstra, who is taking Dailey's class this semester, said he was pleased with the class.
the Leawood senior sales Dailey said 500 students usually enroll in the class, which deals frankly with issues involving relationships and sexuality. He used to teach it every semester until 1994, when the School of Social Welfare required that he teach graduate courses in the spring instead.
"It could be useful for all students,' the Leawood senior said.
Since that time, because of continued interest in the class, he has taught a nocredit version every spring through the Ecumenical Christian Ministries. Dailey said he would continue to teach the nocredit course this spring.
Dailey, who has a doctorate in social work, said he had extensive speciality training in human sexuality. He also has his own clinical practice as a marital and sex therapist.
He said his class was extremely relevant to every student.
vant to ever state, "I think it is a damn important class," he said. "If good sex was guaranteed, wouldn't be in this business." Dailey said he did not think the University would hire another faculty member with the same background and credentials who

New bill could make animal abuse a felony
By Leah Shaffer and Amber
Special to the Kansan
Haley drafted a bill for the Legislature that would move animal cruelty crimes from a misdemeanor to a level nine non-person felony, meaning that in most cases, the offender would get probation.
Democratic Sen. David Haley of Wyandotte County is hoping to find a way to give prosecutors more leverage in animal cruelty cases.
Haley said he didn't want to fill up the beds in overcrowded Kansas prisons and thought that psychological counseling might be a more effective means of dealing with those who are violent toward animals.
"It is directly tied to domestic abuse and with those with extremely violent tendencies." Haley said. "It's a cry for help."
Haley said he wanted the classification of a felony because it would pack more of a punch in the eyes of the public.
Judy Carman, Lawrence resident and member of Animal Outreach of Kansas, agreed that violence toward animals led to violence against humans.
vocabulary "When kids do cruel things to animals, don't ignore it because they may be imitating adults or getting abused themselves," Carman said.
Carman also said that 71 percent of women abused by male partners reported that these men have hurt or killed companion animals in the home. The statistic came from the Dor-
ris Duy Animal Foundation, she said.
Haley said the bill was in the Senate Judiciary Committee, and he put in a request for a hearing. However, Haley said that for the law to be taken seriously, there must be public demand.
"I'd be willing to start a petition drive," said Aaron Jacobs, president of KU's Proponents of Animal Liberation.
Jacobs, Leawood sophomore, said he supported the idea of making animal abuse a felon
"I don't understand how a small, minor possession in drugs could carry a tougher sentence than mutilating an animal." Jacobs said.
Carman and Midge Grinstead, director of the Lawrence Humane Society, said they were ready to begin petitioning the people of the state of Kansas for support. Carman also stressed that education would be important.
"By teaching kids to be kind to animals we're teaching them

Alumni donate $1.5 million to Spencer museum expansion
A Colorado couple pledged $1.5 million to the Spencer Museum of Art for a proposed $20 million expansion.
The donation also counts toward "KU First: Invest in Excellence," the largest raising campaign in KU history.
KU alumni Dusty and Kathy Loo, residents of Colorado Springs, Colo., donated the money. Dusty Loo was a 1960 KU graduate, and Kathy Loo was a 1961 graduate.
Andrea Norris, director of the museum, said the Loos were big supporters of the museum, and the couple thought it was an important aspect of the University.
"They believe in the museum as a teaching museum and believe in the educational role that we play," she said.
The proposed expansion will double the size of the museum when completed, Norris said. She said 95 percent of the art the museum had was not on display; however, she explained a lot of the art was sensitive to light and could not be displayed for long periods of time.
Norris said the expansion might begin in five years.

brigade. Injured in the fall were Jason Beckwith and Ray Cox. Cox is in critical condition at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Mo., with multiple broken bones and other injuries.
Beckwith is in St. Francis Hospital in Topeka, where his injuries are not considered life threatening.
Lt. John Sidwell said the boys were injured in the fall Sunday afternoon on the Kansas Avenue Bridge in north Topeka. The boys told police they decided to walk on the sidewalk in the center of the bridge span.
However, Sidwell said, when the bridge was reconstructed several years ago, the center sidewalk was removed.

A total of 38 people will lose their jobs. Both sides declined to discuss the reasons for breaking up their 10-month-old partnership, but Brill called the relationship "difficult."
Primedia is taking back ownership of the media industry magazines and newsletters it had hired Brill to run as well as Inside, which had made a name for itself as a media news Web site.
The breakup marks a retreat for Brill, who made a name for himself as a founder of Court TV, American Lawyer magazine and, later, Brill's Content.

Letter sent to top senator tests positive for anthrax
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A piece of mail sent to Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle tested positive for anthrax yesterday as the bioterrorism scare that has raised anxiety across the country reached the halls of Congress.
The letter, which contained a powdery substance, was dispatched to an Army medical research facility at Fort Detrick, Md., for examination after two preliminary tests in Daschle's office came back positive, said Capitol Police Lt. Dan Nichols.
The Fort Detrick findings will be available today, officials said.
Officials said the preliminary test, which looks for genetic markers, has a high rate of false positives.
President Bush, disclosing the letter to Daschle's office, told reporters "there may be some possible link" between anthrax incidents and Osama bin Laden, whom administration officials said was behind the Sept. 11 airline hack attacks.
"I wouldn't put it past him, but we don't have any hard evidence," Bush said.
Daschle was in the Capitol and was not exposed to the letter, which was opened in his other office a block away in the Hart Senate Office Building. Aides who may have been exposed to the letter were tested and treated with the antibiotic Cipro as a precaution, said
Dr. John Eisold, attending physician in the Capitol.
"They are innocent people caught up in a matter for which they have nothing to do," a somber-looking Daschle, D-S.D., told reporters at a news conference outside the Capitol. "I am very, very disappointed and angered."
In Trenton, N.J., Postal Inspector Tony Esposito and FBI officials said the letter to Daschle was postmarked in Trenton on Sept. 18, the same date and postmark on a letter that infected an NBC employee in New York last week.
The letter to Daschle's office was only one of several anthrax scares at the Capitol yesterday. Sen. Frank Murkowski, R-Alaska, said his aides reported a suspicious letter and were told by Capitol Police that their report was the 12th of the day.
Officials also were testing a mail carrier and a maintenance worker in Trenton who reported possible symptoms of anthrax, Esposito said.
12th on the day. Aides to House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt, D-Mo., were quarantined in their Capitol suite for about 30 minutes as officers examined and removed a letter that had an international postmark and no return address. The aides said they were told the letter was not dangerous.
More than 800 strike after contract negotiations expire
STERLING HEIGHTS, Mich. — More than 800 employees went on strike yesterday at General Dynamics Land Systems, which makes tanks and other equipment for the military, a company representative said.
Contract negotiations with the United Auto Workers continued past a midnight deadline without reaching an agreement, said representative Peter Keating.
The company designs, manufactures and supports land and amphibious combat systems for the Army, the Marine Corps and allied nations.
Nonunion employees will continue operations, and the company will continue production, Keating said. He said he could not discuss key contract issues.
Workers said they walked off the job because of health care and pension issues.
Prozac, Zoloft may decrease smokers' risk of a heart attack
DALLAS — Smokers who take certain antidepressants like Prozac and Zoloft run a dramatically lower risk of a first heart attack, a study suggests.
The study found that smokers who took selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRI's, reduced their chances of a heart attack by 65 percent compared with smokers who didn't.
Stephen Kimmel, an assistant professor of medicine and epidemiology at the University of Pennsylvania, said one possible explanation was that the drugs acted like a blood thinner, reducing the risk of clots that cause heart attacks. But he said more research was needed.
It also remains to be seen how the drugs affect nonsmokers.

Student find support network in OAKS
...

Oaks President Joan Winston, New Hope, Pa., junior, is working to finish her degree in psychology. OAKS, a campus organization for nontraditional students will meet from 5:30 to 7:30 tonight at the Centennial Room in the Kansas Union.
Health care, day care some of the issues group addresses
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
Sometimes Joan Winston says she feels like she needs to prove herself as a student at the University of Kansas.
city of Nassau.
"It's been mixed," said Winston, a New Hope, Pa., junior, about her experience as a nontraditional student at the University. "Overall it's been good. It's getting better. We are people like traditional students who have dreams and aspirations. We are people who have seen the world, view education and revere it. We make for very good students. We have so much to offer the classroom."
Winston is one of at least 5,000 nontraditional students on campus. Nontraditional students are those who are single with children, married, married with children, commuters or coming back to school after several years, Winston said.
"Nontraditional students should be applauded," she said. "These are people who don't
come back to school footloose and fancy-free. They have responsibilities."
Winston said she didn't finish school because she got married and had a daughter. Her daughter, Mimsa Winston, is now a KU senior.
"I had always intended on finishing," Joan Winston said. "When you are away from school for so long, you view it differently. It is a very different type of pressure."
Joan Winston arrived in Lawrence in 1999 and had been self-employed. She said this was her second semester here.
She said some of her concerns as a nontraditional student were being able to support herself, being accepted by other students and keeping up with the workload.
Winston is president of OAKS, the nontraditional students organization on campus.
"It's a support network," Winston said. "It's there if you need to come and talk or if you have a problem."
She said some of the issues the organization was working on included day care and health care for students.
Shara Smith, Lee's Summit,
Mo., junior, and vice president of
the group, said she started attending the University in 1996 but left when she got married and had a son. She returned this semester.
"It's a little strange coming back," Smith said. "Everyone I know is gone."
She said one of her concerns as a nontraditional student was finding child care for her son. Smith said she was taking class on Tuesdays and Thursdays because she could not find day care for him. She has a baby sitter watch her son during her classes.
The group meets from 5:30 to 7:30 tonight at the Centennial Room in the Kansas Union. OAKS will also sponsor a Halloween festival at 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 28, at Strong Farms, 1919 N. 1500. Tickets cost $5 for students, and children younger than 6 get in free. Tickets can be purchased at the Student Union Activities box office or the OAKS office, both located in the Kansas Union, or at the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center in Strong Hall.

Drop in enrollment relief to some administrators
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
Space is a premium at the University of Kansas, leaving few administrators disappointed that student enrollment dropped this fall by 138 students
“It’s kind of a relief,” said John Gronbeck-Tedesco, associate dean of liberal arts and sciences. “We could take more students, but we choose not to.”
Provost David Shulenburger said the University had the capacity to enroll more students, but enrollment growth was not the University's mission.
"There's not a great deal of room for growth given our capacity in terms of faculty." Shulenburger said. "Thus, our objective is to maintain relatively stable enrollment and increase the quality of the student body."
Lisa Pinamonti, associate director of admissions, said her
office recognized the potential strain a sudden influx of students would cause the University, which is why enrollment management policies, such as qualified admissions standards, have been instituted.
Gronbeck-Tedesco said the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences had enough professors and other teachers to cover classes, but dwindling classroom and laboratory space had caused concern.
"There are no desperate issues, but certainly there are challenges," Gronbeck-Tedesco said.
Toni-Marie Montgomery, dean of fine arts, reported concerns within the department of dance, which is in Robinson Center.
"They are in dire need of adequate classroom and rehearsal space." Montgomery said.
Gronbeck-Tedesco said those involved with the KU First fund-raising campaign, who hope to raise $500 million, may provide their departments with the needed space.
Both Montgomery and
Shulenburger said increasing the University's academic profile was a major goal, which would be accomplished by increasing the average ACT score of the freshman class and by enrolling more National Merit Scholars.
While the number of freshman National Merit Scholars declined by 11 this fall to 105, Pinamonti said the average freshman ACT score went up one-tenth of a point to 24.5, which was about three points above the national average.

The size of the KU Marching Jayhawks might be smaller than in previous years, but that doesn't mean their sound is muffled.
The band has shown a visible decrease in members in recent years, but it continues to work harder to improve its quality of performance, said Devin Burr, band president.
"A lot of people last year decided not to come back," said the Ellinwood senior.
Burr, who has been a member of the Marching Jayhawks for seven years, said some members decided not to return because they did not have the time to commit.
He said he was pleased with the band's performance so far this year.
"We are a little bit louder," Burr said. "We have less people that are playing out of tune."
Tim Oliver, director of Marching Jayhawks, said it was common for upperclassmen to leave the band.
"In every marching band, there is a larger proportion of freshmen and sophomores than there are juniors and seniors," Oliver said.
He said the major reason more freshmen and sophomores were on the team was because of the band's recruiting technique. Oliver said fliers and letters were sent to people who had interest in playing in a college band, and members recruited from their old high schools.
"Word of mouth is very powerful in the sense of high schools," he said.
Oliver declined to comment about the exact size of this year's band compared to previous years.
Alie Farley, Gladstone, Mo., junior, and the drum major, said the band had plenty of trombone and trumpet players, which had helped the quality of the band's performance.
Farley said that she looked forward to the next series of home games and that the band was practicing hard in preparation for them.

to be kind," Carman said. "It gives them the concept that it's good to be nice and not hurt others."
"Every bone in that cat's body was broken," he said.
Last spring, Ron Lee performed the autopsy on "Mama Cat," a popular stray in Lawrence who had been found mangled and killed.
In his 26 years as a veterinarian, Lee said he had never seen such animal abuse.
Brett Rizzo was arrested and scheduled to go to trial in June for the crime. However, Rizzo's lawyer negotiated a plea agreement with the district attorney's office. He was sentenced to a year of supervised probation. Rizzo has since moved back to New Jersey.

Animals Cat case prompts scrutiny
Grinstead went to the sentencing and was not pleased.
She said the public didn't fully realize what had been done to the cat.
"It's obvious that he tortured it." Grinstead said.
Maintenance workers discovered the remains of the cat at the Meadowbrook Apartment complex last spring. The cat's blood was found all over Rizzo's apartment, and the cat's remains were put into a dumpster.
Grinstead said she didn't think the community took animal cruelty seriously.
But Ruth Rithaler, assistant district attorney, said Rizzo's probation was not an unusual sentence for a misdemeanor. Rithaler said that because of Kansas sentencing guidelines, it would be highly unusual for a judge to give jail time for a such a crime.
"Clearly, this is a kid who had some problems that would not be addressed in jail, even if he were assigned jail time." Ritthaler said.

EDITORIAL Open House brought new students to KU
The University of Kansas hosted an Open House on Saturday October 6 for alumni, KU students, prospective students, and members of the Lawrence community. The event was a good start toward establishing an Open House that shows off the Universities attributes to the state and all prospective students.
Marguey Frederick, associate director of admissions and coordinator of the KU Visitor Center, was also pleased with the results of the Open House, but admitted that it was difficult to measure the amount of people who came. Frederick is optimistic about the Open House becoming an annual event, and has been pleased with the amount of positive feedback she has received.
Kansas State University has organized an Open House every spring for twenty years, and many believe it has helped the enrollment and awareness of the university. This would be another useful tool for KU to use to help its enrollment and recruiting. The event was scheduled on a weekend in the fall that would not conflict with football because in order to provide free parking for the Open House. Ideally, the Open House would take place on a day with the football game that night. However, football game times are tentative and can be changed at the last minute.
As a result, the Open House will be held annually every spring. This is good and will be memorable for students, alumni, and community members.
The Open House was privately funded through KU Endowment money; no state funding was used. The initial cost was $30,000, but the advertising costs brought the total to about $40,000.
The KU Visitor Center did a great job of advertising for the event. They sent out 5,200 flyers to students in Lawrence elementary schools. To appeal to high school students, they sent out 1,500 posters to principals in the state of Kansas. Since the date was set, there have also been fliers at every college fair that KU has attended advertising the Open House to prospective students. For alumni, there was an ad in the Kansas Alumni magazine. Ads were placed in many western Kansas newspapers that had strong KU alumni communities. Many radio ads were aired throughout Kansas, and Internet ads through the Kansas City Star were placed to help advertise also. Advertising through TV was too expensive to fit in the University's budget.
PERSPECTIVE
Next year, KU hopes to draw more prospective student groups from Kansas City, Topeka, and all of Kansas. A goal for next year should also be how to reach out to more out-of-state prospective students. Frederick hopes that KU students and student groups take a more active role in the Open House next year to draw even more people. Different alumni groups can also organize themselves to set up events at the Open House.
Molly Mueller for the editorial board.
serupers Overall, the KU Open House was a success, and can become an important tradition for the university.
Mr. Rogers leaves gap in TV opportunity for parents
Fred Rogers of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood has packed up his cardigans and moved home. Rogers is leaving the TV neighborhood after 30 years and taking his navy canvas boat shoes, along with his true love for the welfare of children, his integrity and his simplicity, with him.
As Rogers retires, he leaves the children in the hands of their parents, believing he has fought the good fight and given us the tools we need to be good moms and dads. He showed us the values of love and respect and encouraged all who would listen to continue to fight for child-friendly television. He's taught us what he can. He's handing the baton back to us. Let's hope we'll pick it up and run.
Rogers said he got into television in 1954 because he hated it. He told CNN that he thought there must be some way of using TV to nurture those who would watch and listen. And that is what he did. When the outside world was chaotic, Rogers gave children peace, security and comfort through a simple format based on the same routine show after show.
His program may have seemed sappy and simple to older children or adults, but Rogers knew what he was doing. His main audience was preschoolers and their parents, and the show was definitely not shallow. He taught both young and old how to deal with death, divorce, sibling rivalry and violence.
For example, after the Columbine school shootings, Rogers was asked in a CNN interview how parents could explain the massacre to their children. He said, "Those children need to know

that the adults in their lives will do everything they can do to keep them safe. It doesn't mean we're always going to be successful, but it does mean we're going to try."
That is why one of Rogers' goals was to reach the parents. He told Christian Century magazine in a 1994 interview, "Children see television much the same
Rogers has pleaded with the television industry for years to remember the children when planning its programming. But it has been in vain. The 1998 Federman study, which looked at 23 cable and television networks over three seasons, found that preschoolers who watched two hours of TV a day would witness 10,000 violent acts each year. Saturday morning cartoon shows, the baby sitter of young children, have the highest rate of violence, with 25 violent acts committed per hour.
Experts are now giving similar advice to parents after last month's bombings. Parents should be upfront and honest, but information needs to be age-appropriate. It's best to watch television with them so parents can explain what is happening. And, finally, parents should pay special attention to their children. That is what Mr. Rogers has been telling us all along.
way they see a refrigerator or a stove — it's something that parents provide. In a young child's mind, parents probably condone what's on the television, just like they choose what's in the refrigerator or on the stove. That's why we who make television for children must be especially careful."
Some argue that just because children are exposed to violence, it is hard to determine the effects it has on them. And they're right. It is difficult to prove cause and effect. Isolating the effects of media from the effects of all other factors in life is nearly impossible.
Mr. Rogers has retired. He's done what he can. He's used the medium of television for good and taught the parents well. Now it's up to us. Yes, networks need to rethink what they put in our living rooms. But if they don't parents need to hit the off button on your remote control and haul out Candy Land.
But that doesn't mean we can't use common sense to figure out that violence on television can't be good for our kids. That's what Mr. Rogers, also a Presbyterian minister, has been preaching to us all these years. It's what the studies have shown us. And it's now what we're learning for ourselves.
We have made television the surrogate mother of our children. And now it's time for parents to take up their roles again. The savior of our children is not a man dressed in a green zip-up cardigan and tennis shoes. We are the ones who will save and preserve our children.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
TRUSTING THE NEWS
At first glance, Luke Daly's article on freshmen BOCO elections ("Freshmen use skin to win," Oct. 11) had the makings of a good article. Conflict, timeliness and, of course, bare skin.
Dear editor.
However, a third of the way into the article is a statement that is flat-out wrong. The Campus All-Stars are Greek sponsored. Each candidate is a member of either Phi Delta Theta, Fiji, Chi Omega or Pi Beta Phi.
Daly had observed the situation and even quoted a member of the Campus All-Stars. This raises the question of trust. If I can't trust a Kansan reporter to get the facts straight and I can't trust the Kansan editing staff to catch mistakes, then why should I even bother to read the campus newspaper?

OLD WEST LAWRENCE ZONING
Dear editor
The Old West Lawrence Neighbor
hood Association and property owners invite the Kansan readership to support the rezoning of western Old West from RMD (duplex) to RS2 to save historic homes from future demolition. Andy Davies' piece of Oct. 9 was inaccurate.
No duplex will be torn down.
Every duplex is grandfathered in.
Large homes that are now duplexes
will remain so.
The target area is Alabama through Arkansas, Sixth to Ninth streets and only that part zoned RMD. Areas zoned for apartment, rooing house or commercial are not included.
The great asset of this nongeneric place is its diversity of ages, races, occupations, politics and housing, and especially its threatened stock of small affordable homes so coveted by students. The present 26 percent duplex indexes our zoning is obsolete. We now need to save our historic buildings for all.
- Rental homes are safe. No landlord will be required to reconfigure a building or change its usage.
- No student housing will be lost; much affordable housing will be saved. We love students and their grandmas here.

Students ready for Halloween thrills
By Michelle Burhenn
Kansan staff writer
Halloween gives Chris Cardinal a chance to break from his normal routine — and normal wardrobe.
This Halloween, Cardinal, Salina freshman, will don underwear, socks and a white shirt to portray Tom Cruise's character in the movie Risky Business.
"It's just that time in the school year, and it's a social event," Cardinal said. "People put more effort into having fun and breaking from the status quo."
Cardinal said that he would decorate his room in Hashinger Hall for trick-or-treaters.
He said that although he didn't yet know his plans for Halloween, now that he is in college, he would most likely do more for the holiday, such as spending money on a costume, decorations and trips to haunted houses in the Kansas City area.
At Fun and Games, 816
Massachusetts St., costumes range in price from
$15 to $100, said Gwen
Billings, part-owner of the store.
"What's going early is the nicer, more expensive ones," Billings said. "The people that have a particular thing in mind or don't want to wait until the last minute are picking up the most expensive costumes."
About 75 percent of the store is devoted to costumes for Halloween, Billings said. It began selling costumes in late September.
In addition to costumes, individuals and organizations spend money for Halloween parties.
The International Students Association will have its annual Halloween party Friday, Nov. 2, at the Holiday Inn, 200 McDonald Drive.
The association has budgeted about $2,300 for the party, but Luis Parreira,
president of the association, said he was not sure if it would spend that much.
The budgeted money will be spent on the banquet room rental, decorations, advertising, shuttle buses to and from the event, security and a disc jockey. They expect about 600 to 700 people, said Parreira, Sao Paulo, Brazil, junior.
Parreira said that the Halloween party was the biggest party the association sponsored all year because the holiday was the most unique to international students.
"Halloween is not such a big deal in other cultures, and when international students get here, it's something different for the international community," Parreira said.
"It's not something they've seen before," he said.

Halloween to bring George Clinton to Liberty Hall
By Graham Winch Special to the Kansan
Lawrence is going to get funked up this Halloween by George Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars.
Clinton, a '70s music icon known for his former band, Parliament, will perform at 7 p.m. on Halloween at Liberty Hall, 644 Massachusetts St.
Tickets are on sale for $28.50 (standing) and $35.50 (balcony). Matt Toplikar, Liberty Hall employee, said the number of tickets already sold was confidential, but he expected the concert to sell out by Halloween.
"Everybody seems to be really excited about it," Toplikar said. "A lot of people have come up just to ask about it."
capacity of 1,000 people.
At least one KU student is already making plans with his friends to hear the funk icon.
"I think it will be a good show because of the costumes, and George Clinton is very talented and has influenced music a lot," said Adam Steele, Atlanta junior.
Clinton invented the funk revolution of the late 70s, according to his official Web site, www.availableentertainment.com.
After Parliament shut down, Clinton regrouped with the P-Funk All Stars in 1982 behind the success of the hit single "Atomic Dog," which spawned barking dog sounds from the crowds on tour, according to the site.
Superman returns to television with the premiere of 'Smallville'
Contact Winch at 864-4810
The Associated Press
VANCOUVER, British Columbia Gone are the tights and the flights, the cape, glasses and dual identity.
There's just a teen-age Clark Kent coping with adolescence, his burgeoning superpowers and the occasional villain.
The WB's Smallville, which premieres at 8 p.m. Tuesday, takes viewers back to where Superman's earthly life started — Smallville.
The series opener begins with a meteor shower that brings death, destruction and a small boy to Smallville. The youngster is found by the childless Kents and raised as their own. The show jumps 12 years, and Clark (played by Tom Welling) has grown into an awkward, unpopular teen.
He's got friends who make bets on his success and failures — from talking to girls to catching the bus on time.
He longs for popular cheerleader Lana Lang (newcomer Kristen Kreuk). But when he tries to talk to her, Clark gets weak-
kneed and sick to his stomach. The problem: She wears a Kryptonite necklace.
He also finds an unlikely friend in a twenty-something Lex Luther (Michael Rosenbaum, from Sweet November) after saving his life in a car accident.
"As much as this is a story about Clark's journey to super hero, it's also the story of Lex's journey to being a villain," said Alfred Gough, one of the writers.
Superman references are peppered throughout the episode. For example, the high school athletes sport lettermen's jackets with a logo similar to the famous "S." In another scene, a red blanket is thrown over Clark's shoulders after he's gotten wet.
No one needs to figure out Superman's enduring appeal, though. Dating back to the 1930s, he was a smash in comic books, radio and movies. Television's The Adventures of Superman starring George Reeves took off in the 1950s. Saturday morning cartoons followed, as well as the
big-budget Superman movies with Christopher Reeve starting in 1978. Superboy came along later, then ABC's Lois & Clark The New Adventures of Superman.
The newest show rests on the shoulders of Welling, whose only other major acting credit includes six episodes on Judging Amy.
Rosenbaum's scene-stealing Lex offers a rounded picture of a young adult trying to live up to his father's expectations while struggling with his own limitations.
John Schneider, from the old The Dukes of Hazzard and Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman series, is likable and believable as Clark's father. Annette O'Toole, who played Lana Lang in Superman III, provides some continuity for Superman fans as Clark's mother, while Sam Jones III (NYPD Blue) and Allison Mack (My Horrible Year and Honey, We Shrunk Ourselfs) — who play Clark's best friends — provide the show's comic relief.
'Don't ask, don't tell' still the rule even in light of America's new war
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — At military bases across the country, troops mobilizing for America's new war are saying goodbye to spouses and sweethearts with lingering embraces and tearing kisses.
Unless they're gay.
Homosexuals reporting for possible combat are bound by the "don't ask, don't tell" mandate to keep their sexual orientation to themselves.
Following the Sept. 11 attacks, the Pentagon suspended certain types of administrative discharges, but not the ban on serving as an openly gay member of the armed forces.
Historically, discharges for homosexuality have decreased during times of war according to the Center for the Study of Sexual Minorities in the Military based at the University of California at Santa Barbara.
In the three years before 1966, the Navy discharged more than 1,600 sailors a year for homosexuality, says center director Aaron Belkin, quoting figures researched by Randy Shilts, who
wrote Conduct Unbecoming, and Alan Berube, author of Coming Out Under Fire. But as military involvement in Vietnam increased, the number dropped to as low as 461 in 1970.
"You can bleed, die and fight for your country when there's an external enemy. It seems unfortunate that America tends to feed on itself and harm itself when there's no external threat," says Richard Watson, a former Navy submarine officer who was discharged after he told his commanding officer he was gay.
Several countries allow openly homosexual troops to serve, including Canada, Israel, Australia and Britain.
Supporters of "don't ask, don't tell" say allowing gays to serve openly would undercut morale and unit cohesion. A heterosexual soldier, for example, might not want to share a foxhole with a homosexual.
Charles Moskos, a Northwestern University sociology professor who studies the armed forces and helped draft "don't ask, don't tell" for the Clinton administration, says the policy
tried to steer a middle course.
"If you let open gays in then you do have problems of personal privacy violations — 'You will have to live with this gay guy' — and if you go back to the old order, which was the true witch-hunting, well that was just repressive and they got stigmatized," Moskos says. The policy allows gays to serve provided they hide their sexual orientation. Supervisors are not supposed to ask about their sex lives.
Dixon Osburn, executive director of the Servicemembers Legal Defense League, said after the Sept. 11 attacks, a number of gays who had been kicked out of the armed forces got in touch with the League to see if there was any chance of reenlisting, There wasn't.
But Watson, the former submarine officer, understands.
"Would I go back to defend this country and to serve? You bet," he says. "Even with all its pitfalls and all of its social ills, this is still the greatest place in the world."

Sharon coalition weakens
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — Trying to keep his coalition from unraveling, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon warned ultranationalist defectors yesterday that if they brought him down, they would only help Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat.
"You made his (Arafat)'s day," an angry Sharon told his former allies in a speech on the opening of parliament's winter session.
The first crack in Sharon's broad-based government appeared yesterday, when the National Union party said it was leaving because of Israel's troop pullback from some Palestinian areas. It signaled a growing division about a U.S.-led push toward a return to peace talks with the Palestinians.
Sharon put together an eightparty coalition after his landslide election victory in February.
The departure of the National Union, which has seven seats in the 120-member parliament, did not rob Sharon of his majority — his coalition still controls 76 seats in the legislature. However, the defection served as a warning that Sharon's government could quickly unravel if he resumed peace talks with the Palestinians.
The National Union left after the government carried out one of its truce promises — a troop pullback yesterday from two Palestinian neighborhoods in the West Bank town of Hebron. Israel had seized the areas 10 days earlier to stop shootings on Jewish settler enclaves.
Party leaders said they also quit to protest perceived U.S. pressure on Israel to make concessions to the Palestinians.
Palestinian officials confirmed last week that the United States was working on a peace initiative that called for the establishment of a Palestinian state with a foothold in Jerusalem. U.S. officials have not commented on the details but have said the plan might be made public during the U.N. General Assembly in November.
The United States is trying to cultivate Arab support as it retaliates for Sept. 11 terror attacks on New York and Washington. Several Arab leaders have said it is important to them to see progress in resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
In his parliament speech,
Sharon tried to allay concerns of
his traditional right-wing constituency.
"I am not subject to any pressure, and I do not intend to make any compromise on issues that endanger Israel's security." Sharon said.
Sharon warned that twice in the past decade, the defections of hard-liners from right-wing governments had brought dovish parties to power — and led to Israeli concessions to the Palestinians.
"I ask you, my friends, what do you want?" he said. "A campaign against terror or an election campaign."
Turning to the National Union leaders, Sharon said: "You have caused me great distress. To Arafat, on the other hand, you have given great satisfaction ... You made his day."
However, one of the National Union's leaders, Tourism Minister Rehawan Zeevi, said Sharon
was going back on his promises. "We do not want to be in the Oslo government," Zeevi said, referring to the interim peace accords signed by Sharon's predecessors and named after the Norwegian capital.
A dispute also broke out between the military chief of staff, Lt. Gen. Shaul Mofaz, and his boss, Defense Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer — also against the backdrop of the Hebron pullback.
back.
On Sunday, Mofaz issued a statement saying he opposed the pullback because it might endanger the lives of Israeli civilians and soldiers. Army commanders are routinely consulted by the government about security matters but are not permitted to voice public criticism of Cabinet decisions.
On Sunday, Ben-Eliezer announced he had reprimanded Mofaz, who has nine months left of his four-year term.
Several newspaper commentators and dovish politicians, including Labor legislator Yossi Beilin, demanded that Mofaz resign.
resign.
Mofaz said yesterday he would not quit, despite the rebuke. He said the wording of his statement was unfortunate and that he had not intended to challenge government authority.
Mofaz has attracted criticism by dovish Israelis and many Arabs. They say the army has used excessive force against the Palestinians in the year-old Palestinian uprising.
India fires rockets at Pakistan
The Associated Press
India said the attacks were launched to punish Pakistan for aiding Islamic militants in the disputed province.
JAMMU, India — The Indian army fired mortar shells and rockets at Pakistani positions across the cease-fire line in Kashmir yesterday and said it had caused "widespread damage and destruction."
It was the heaviest fighting in 10 months along the volatile border. India's Defense Ministry said 12 guerrillas were killed in the fighting, while an army statement said 11 had died. Pakistan, in turn, said that Indian shelling had killed a woman and injured 25 other civilians. Claims by the two sides could not immediately be reconciled.
The clashes took place while U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell was in Pakistan. He was scheduled to be in India today during his mission to the subcontinent, aimed in part at easing tensions between the two nuclear-armed South Asian neighbors. They have fought two wars about the divided Himalayan province in the past 50 years.
50 years. India's government is worried Washington overlooks its allegations that Pakistan supports terrorism. Islamabad says it offers the insurgents only moral aid in
their 12-year fight to separate Kashmir from India.
Washington, however, has praised Pakistan for its help in the campaign to force Afghanistan to turn over Osama bin Laden, accused in the Sept. 11 attacks, and relations between the countries have improved.
In Washington, President Bush said he was looking into the reports of fighting.
"I think it is very important that India and Pakistan stand down during our activities in Afghanistan,"Bush said.
Agents Powell's mission was "to talk to both sides about making sure that if there are tensions — and obviously there are — that they be reduced," Bush said.
In yesterday's operation, Indian forces used artillery, rockets, mortars, grenade launchers and machine guns after Pakistani soldiers sneaked into Indian territory in Akhnoor and damaged three power transformers, said Indian Brig. P.C. Das.
A statement from the Army Media Center said the Indian fire was partly in response to that attack.
The fighting was the most intense this year, and the first large-scale shooting across the frontier since mid-July, when both armies exchanged fire during the three-day summit
between Indian and Pakistani leaders. The summit ended in a deadlock, not knowing how to solve the half-century dispute about the divided Himalayan province.
A Pakistani army representative, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Pakistani paramilitary rangers responded to Indian shelling and "inflicted considerable damage" to Indian positions. He said the Indian fire killed a woman and 25 civilians, as well as damaging houses.
Gen. Rashid Quereshi, representative for Pakistan's military-led government, accused India of unprovoked firing on civilians, the state-run Associated Press of Pakistan reported.
Quereshi also questioned the timing of the attack, coming as Powell visits Pakistan. He implied it was part of an attempt by India to call attention to its allegations that Pakistan was implicated in terrorism.
After an Oct. 1 car bombing that killed 40 people at India's Jammu-Kashmir state legislature, An Indian official wrote to Bush saying Pakistan should understand there was a "limit to India's patience."
Airstrikes continue in Afghanistan
The Associated Press
KABUL, Afghanistan — Huge explosions shook the Afghan capital day and night yesterday, sending terrified residents scurrying for shelter, as U.S. jets pounded suspected weapons storage sites in Kabul and across the country.
the country. Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, speaking at the Pentagon, suggested U.S. airstrikes could start focusing on Taliban front-line positions facing Afghan opposition fighters in the northeast of the country.
He said U.S. planes had so far avoided that because of incomplete targeting information. But he said that might soon change.

The opposition alliance claimed yesterday it had advanced close to Mazar-e-Sharif, the largest city in the north and that some 4,000 Taliban troops defected during the

The attacks yesterday against Kabul started just before sunrise and continued into the night. Taliban gunners fired in vain at the attacking planes, some so high they could not be heard from the ground.

A. C. BURKING
Mizzou can expect to lose in Saturday's game with KU
We've had a lot of fun lately at the expense of those sad-sack Kansas State Wildcats.
But let's not forget the one team that dare I say it is even sadder and more pathetic than the Wildcats of the west. And it's coming to town this weekend: the Missouri Tigers.
How bad are the terrible Tigers? So bad that Iowa State, not even a Big 12 Championship contender itself, has gone to Columbia, Mo., and beaten Mizzou the last two times they met. So bad that the Tigers lost to Ohio's Bowling Green State University — at home.
This weekend, the Tigers and the Jayhawks will renew one of the oldest college football rivalries in the country. Kansas will retake the lead in the KU vs. Mizzou series — it's at 50 wins for each school right now—with an easy blowout victory. The Jayhawks, remarkably enough, are aiming for a bowl game. Meanwhile, the only bowl game the Tigers will have to remember is with Bowling Green.
Bowling Green? Sure, I've been to bowling lanes. I've even lawn bowled once or twice. But whoever heard of a Bowling Green? Well, not until the first weekend of September, anyway.
Sometimes it's hard to put demoralizing losses into perspective. This time, it's all too easy. In coach Gary Pinkel's debut, Bowling Green, which hasn't had a winning season since 1994, rolled into Faurot Field from Ohio and drilled the Tigers 20-13. The tough Falcon defense, which gave up 51 points in its 2000 season finale, held the putrid Missouri offense to just 71 yards in the first half
That's not even funny. It's just sad.
Losses like that reveal a few things about the Missouri football program. For starters, Bowling Green finished last in the Mid-America Conference last year, which means Missouri would probably finish last in that group. You might also conclude that Missouri made the wrong call by firing former coach Larry Smith, who took Missouri to two bowl games after 13 straight losing seasons, and bringing in Gary Pinkel.
Of course, it was Missouri's fans always ignorant and never classy, who organized the move to oust Smith.
Yes, those fans are the guys who wear dresses to basketball games (Kansas junior forward Drew Gooden called them "transvestites" in one magazine). And these same fans were out the door by halftime of last season's 38-17 pasting by our mighty Jayhawks in Columbia.
Sadly, those people still think that Missouri is going to have a good football team in the near future. What they are forgetting, however, is one thing about their school that will never be changed — no heavily recruited athlete would ever want to spend four years of his or her life there (with the possible exception of basketball star Kareem Rush, who settled for Mizzou only after Kansas stopped recruiting him).
So on Saturday, after the Tigers lose, Missouri fans can go back to the Ozarks where they came from, with their tails tucked between their legs. But maybe central Missouri isn't all bad.
central Missouri After all, there are always greens on which to bowl.

Improvements needed or maybe event should end, Williams hints
Sound system hampers Late Night
Ryan Malashock Kansan sportswriter
A garbled sound system may have prevented fans from enjoying Late Night with Roy Williams, and the men's basketball coach was not pleased.
"To me you couldn't hear a blessed thing," Williams said. "It's almost embarrassing. Unless the speakers are better up top, I’m wondering if it’s worth doing if we do it that poorly. I couldn’t hear anything. I felt for the girls, the guys. It took away a great deal of enjoyment for me. We’ve either got to figure out a way for it to be heard, or maybe 14 Late Nights is enough."
Charlie Richman, Dallas junior, said he and others around him had trouble
hearing during the festivities, which included the team's first official practice of the season.
"It wasn't that I didn't have a good time, but I couldn't hear much of anything," Richman said. "After
waiting and sitting for three hours, it was frustrating to me that the sound quality wasn't better."
Williams:
Among the skits affected by the sound system were the musical acts performed by seniors Jeff Carey and Todd Kappelmann, and the five freshmen serenading their mothers.
Carey, who had performed musically in years past, and Kappelmann did a rendition of Bon Jovis "Wanted Dead or Alive."
Carey said he was upset with the sound system because most of the people in
attendance couldn't hear them clearly.
Six members of the men's team acted out a mock "Holiday Inn Express" commercial in which senior Brett Ballard imitated Williams. The lack of crisp sound also may have caused confusion in the crowd, but Ballard said the sound system didn't ruin the night.
“It’s hard to say if I was any good,” Carey said. “I couldn’t really hear myself. I was hoping the crowd would get a little more involved. That’s all right. Not everybody likes Bon Jovi anyway. I do.”
"I really couldn't hear much of anything," Ballard said. "We heard a little bit but not too much. It still was a lot of fun. It's my last year, and I wanted to make it a good one. Late Night is always fun."
The University had brought in additional speakers to enhance the sound at Late Night. Kansas officials have considered installing a new sound system at
Allen Fieldhouse for some time, but a new system would cost about $250.000.
Williams hinted that a solution needed to found before next year's Late Night or the event might not take place.
"It's a shame because Howard Hill's PA, I can hear very well," Williams said of the separate sound system in the fieldhouse used by Kansas's public address announcer. "Senior Day last year I could hear the speeches. We have to do something to have a better sound system."
thing to have a better system Basketball note: Senior guard Jeff Boschee and red shirt freshman guard Jeff Hawkins both suffered minor injuries in practice on Sunday. Boschee sprained his ankle, but an X-ray performed yesterday showed no broken bones. He's listed as day-to-day. Hawkins strained his left knee, and will have an MRI performed today.
Backup propelled Sooner win
Contact Malashock at 864-4858
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
Oklahoma backup quarterback Jason White trotted onto the field much earlier than Kansas defensive coordinator Tom Hayes had expected Saturday.
Hayes had prepared his defense for Nate Hybl, the Oklahoma junior who had started the first five games for the defending national champions. Hybl's ineffectiveness prompted Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops to send out his second string sophomore with 21/2 minutes to go in the first quarter.
"I didn't expect to see him to play because all the press releases from Oklahoma this week said that Hyb1 was going to play." Hayes said. "But sure, we prepared our defense. It's the same scheme. You can't do anything different. It's just that he is a more mobile athlete in their schemes.
White came in for Hybl Oct. 6 against Texas when Hybil's nonthrowing shoulder was crushed into the turf in Dallas late in the first quarter. White directed his team to a 14-3 win against the then-No. 5 team in the country.
But on Saturday, White replaced Hybl not because of an injury, but because the Oklahoma offense needed a spark.
Hybl endured a tough first quarter. Swarming Kansas linebackers and strong pursuit from the defensive line forced him to complete just 5 of 11 passes for 15 yards. He also went 0 for 2 on third down
passes and dropped a snap.
Oklahoma's offensive success happened the moment it went with its No. 2 quarterback. White re-energized the sluggish offense.
He completed 18 of 29 passes for 151 and four touchdowns. He also became the first quarterback to rush for 100 yards against Kansas this season. White took off 12 times for 117 yards. He steered the Sooners to 38 unanswered points — all from a quarterback whom Hayes had not expected to play against his defense.
"I don't know the reason why they took Hybl out," said junior linebacker Leo Etienne, who had a game-high 18 tackles in the 38-10 defeat. "But they felt that White could come in and do the job, and he did."
Hayes credited his players with a gutsy effort against an offense that had strung together 19 consecutive wins.
18
Etienne said the loss to the No. 2 team in the nation was disappointing, but he said that the 2-3 Jayhawks could not remain dejected. He said they had to refocus for their upcoming battle with Missouri.
"We talk to our guys all the time about continuing to fight and play every play like it was their last in football, and they did that," Hayes said.
"We're probably down,but we're not out," Etienne said.

Fans find nothing to cheer about in Kansas City
By Jeremy Giles Kansan sportswriter
The Chiefs seem helpless, the Royals seem hapless, and with another self-inflicted public relations blow by the Royals, it's hard to imagine how this past week could have been worse for sports-minded Kansas Citians.
The past five years with manager Tony Muser, Royals fans have endured three of the worst seasons ever. Fans saw their team limp home with a 65-97 record in 2001, 26 games out of first place in the American League Central Division. Yet, instead of firing Muser, the Royals fired popular bench coach Jamie Quirk in a midweek shocker
that further embittered many fans.
Matt Flynn, Lenexa sophomore, said this season was doomed in the beginning.
this season was good. "The season ended before it even got started because the Royals traded Johnny Damon to Oakland," Flynn said. "This shows that the front office has no commitment to winning. Their intention is to survive the business of baseball."
"When the season's only highlight is our star player (Mike Sweeney) charging the pitcher on the mound,you know you're having a nauseating season," he said.
Fans could also take no comfort in knowing their team was farsighted enough not to draft Kansas City native
Albert Pujols, who is a strong candidate to be the National League rookie of-the-year after leading the St. Louis Cardinals to the playoffs.
Carmichael was on Sunday, it was the Chiefs' turn: During the eventual 20-17 loss to Pittsburgh, they also lost right tackle Victor Riley for the season with a broken leg.
At Arrowhead Stadium, where the Chiefs were almost unbeatable in the 90s, they have lost three in a row for the first time since 1980.
"It is very depressing," said Amy Smith, Overland Park freshman. "I don't even want to turn on the TV to watch the Chiefs, because I know they'll lose."
At 1-4, the Chiefs could be staring at
their worst season since 1988. Boos were loud at Arrowhead as new quarterback Trent Green and his band of wide receivers failed once again to get any semblance of a passing game into gear.
Green, who has thrown seven interceptions and one TD pass in the four losses, stewed for almost an hour in the locker room trying to think of something to tell the media.
"I always have high expectations going into each season," said Chad Clarke, Shawnee junior, referring to both teams.

HOROSCOPES
LA CONSERVACION DE LA CIVILIZATION
Today's Birthday (Oct. 16).
Youd's is a friend (Oct. 10).
You'll need to develop discipline this year. That'll be the most difficult test because you won't think you need it. A lot of what you think you want will come easily, but you'll know that's not all there is. If you forget, a pesky relative will remind you. Being better than everyone else isn't enough. Stretch the boundaries of your talent.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 6. You may not be feeling quite up to par. Luckily, somebody you know wants to take over for a while. If you're embroiled in a dispute, it's OK to let somebody else get you untangled.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 5.
Just when you thought you saw the light at the end of the tunnel, you heard the train whistle blow. Actually, it's not that bad. It's just more red tape to untangle. Work late, if necessary, to get it done. Tomorrow will be more fun.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 10.
Admit it! You're wonderful. You're brilliant, cute,
compassionate, gentle and full of fun. Who
could resist your charms? No one, that's who.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 5.
There's a time for running about, dancing with joy for no reason at all. But some days you feel like hiding out and either reading a good book or just gazing into space. Perhaps this day falls into the latter category.
Lee (July 23-Aug. 22), Today is an 8.
Friends and your mate have encouraged you to try something new, but you didn't think you had the time. What you really lacked was motivation. When you have that, making time is easy, as you'll soon discover.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 6.
You should be able to negotiate an excellent deal. You're valuable, so make sure others know that. Make sure your paycheck reflects it, too. And ask for the money people owe you.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 10.
It's possible that someone may object to your
agenda, but their discouraging comments will
barely be noticeable. Not that you should be
insensitive, of course. Be aware so that you can hear the dissenters and incorporate their ideas. That way you can charm them, too.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 5.
They say still waters run deep, and that's a good way to describe you. Other people would be amazed if they knew what was going on beneath the surface. There's a swarm of ideas, hopes, dreams and fantasies. Find a quiet place to think. Don't take action until Thursday.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is an 8.
Are you planning a big event? Now would be the time to do so. But you may be receiving so many invitations that you barely have time for your job.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 6.
Are you in the mood to completely redecorate your home, move to a more luxurious setting or spend more than you can afford on a new wardrobe? Perhaps you could get a few things, but don't overdo it. A few really high-quality items should satisfy the craving.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 5.
Keep your head down and your comments to yourself for one more day. It's wise to pick the battles you can win. The advantage is with the other person now, so try to control your acidic wit and follow orders.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 10.
You're unstoppable. Start all your new projects now, even the impossible ones. Sure, you have a few doubts. So what? Use them as motivation. You're on a roll.

Mariners top Indians in Game 5, keep their magical season alive
The Associated Press
SEATTLE — This unexpected season of seasons isn't nearly finished for the Seattle Mariners.
Back home where the Mariners' magic multiplies, baseball's best team during the regular season guaranteed it would be around for most of October.
Jamie Moyer tamed Cleveland's bats for six innings, Ichiro Suzuki got three more hits, and Mark Lemore drove in two runs yesterday as the Mariners advanced to the ALCS with a 3-1 win against the Cleveland Indians in the deciding Game 5 of the playoffs.
After saving its record-setting season on Sunday by winning Game 4 in Cleveland, the Mariners returned to the safety and screaming fans in Safeco Field and did what they've done all season.
They got solid starting pitching, clutch base hits, solid relief work and won for the 119th time since April. There was no wild celebration after third baseman David Bell threw out Juan Gonzalez at first for the final out. The Mariners know they still have a lot of work ahead.
As 47,867 stood and cheered, the players exchanged hugs and high-fives near second base before heading to a clubhouse celebration. And now, the Mariners advance to their third ALCS they also appeared in '95 and 2000 - but for the first time, they'll have home-field advantage when they get there.
Seattle will play host to the best-of-seven series beginning tomorrow against either the Oakland Athletics or New York Yankees, who played their own Game 5 last night.
Notes:
Suzuki batted .489 (23-for-47) against the Indians this season.
The Mariners' charter from Cleveland arrived in Seattle at about 10 p.m. PDT Sunday night after Game 4, and the Indians got to their downtown hotel an hour later. Indians assistant GM Mark Shapiro said sleep was overrated with a season on the line.
"Guys don't need sleep to get up for a game like this," said Shapiro, who will take over GM duties on Nov. 1 for Hart. "Adrenaline takes care of it."
Yankees come back, advance
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — With no margin for error, Derek Jeter and the New York Yankees' pin-striped dynasty persevered with one of the great comebacks in baseball history.
As Jeter solidified his place in Yankees' lore, the three-time defending World Series champions became the first team ever to win a best-of-five series after losing the first two games at home.
New York fell behind early as Roger Clemens stumbled, then seized on Oakland's youthful nerves to beat the Athletics 5-3 in the deciding Game 5 last night and advance to the AL championship series.
New York, trying to become only the third team to win the World Series four straight times, opens the AL championship tomorrow at Seattle, with renewed confidence that nothing is outside its grasp.
The Yankees' resolve, the refusal not to give in that has led them to four World Series titles in five years under manager Joe Torre, kicked in while
the A's buckled.
Soriano, one of the nookies added this year to an ever-changing roster, started it with a two-run single in the second off Mark Mulder, who had shut down the Yankees in the opener. Soriano's hit came after Scott Brosius, in a horrible lift, loaded the bases when he was hit by a pitch on the foot.
The best example of the struggles by the A's, who also lost the first round to the Yankees 3-2 last year. came in the fifth.
last year.
Jason Giambi hit an RBI single off Mike Stanton, who had just replaced Clemens, but Miguel Tejada failed to go from first to third on the play. It became costly when Chavez flied to right, a ball Tejada could have scored on.
Giambi and Tejada had an animated discussion after the inning, with the MVP first baseman jabbing his finger at his teammate. About an inning later, they had a talk in the dugout and appeared to make up.
NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE
Cowboys emerge from game with close win
The Associated Press
IRVING, Texas — For three quarters, the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins really looked like they were playing the "Gutter Bowl."
Then two of the NFL's worst teams played to an exciting finish.
Tim Seder, whose kicking leg collided with a horse during pregame warmups, made a 26-yard field goal as time expired last night and Dallas got a 9-7 victory, its first of the year. The Cowboys (1-4) won their eight straight game against the Redskins (0-5), who lost their first seven games in 1998.
The only positive for Washington, which led 7-3 early in the fourth quarter, was the close loss. The Redskins had been beaten by at least 14 points in every game while getting outscored 135-25.
The wretched records of the once-proud teams prompted Washington defensive end Ken Lang to give the game its nickname. He noted that the franchises that have won a combined eight Super Bowls are in the gutter and "are trying to climb out of it."
until Tony Banks threw a 31-yard touchdown pass to Michael Westbrook early in the fourth quarter to give the Redskins a 7-3 lead.
Dallas, which fittedly won without scoring a touchdown, made it 7-6 when Seder kicked a 39-yard field goal with 6:36 left.
Washington wasted a great scoring chance when Smoot intercepted a deep pass to Galloway and returned it 36 yards to the Dallas 40. The Redskins were called for a false start before the first play and wound up punting.
Washington and Dallas traded silly mistakes
The Cowboys almost blew their early lead right after they took it. With 21 seconds left in the half, they tried an onside kick and Washington recovered at its 46. Banks completed two passes to reach the Cowboys' 26, but with 1 second left Brett Conway missed a 44-yard field goal.
Flash bulbs popped as the game-winner went through and Dallas players ran on the field celebrating as if they'd won a much bigger bowl. Hambrick tore off his helmet and spit in the ground as if he was twirling a touchdown ball in the end zone.

Rain delays first home meet, but could help Jayhawks
The Kansas women's golf team had to wait one more day to play its first home meet in coach Nicole Hollingworth's three-year tenure.
Rain canceled the first two rounds yesterday of the Marilynn Smith/Sunflower Invitational at Alvamar Golf Course.
Yesterday's cancellation came as a disappointment to the Jayhawks, who have been looking forward to playing at home.
"If we could just go and light it up for one round, it can help us," she said
The tournament will now consist of 18 holes that will be played this morning at Alvamar. Hollingsworth said she the cancellation could give the Jayhawks an advantage.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL Texas Tech quarterback named offensive player of the week
DALLAS — Texas Tech quarterback Kliff Kingsbury, who had 490 yards passing and four touchdown passes in a 38-19 win against Kansas State Saturday, was named the Big 12 Conference offensive player of the week.
Colorado linebacker Joey Johnson won the defensive honor, and Iowa State kicker Tony Yelk was named the special teams player of the week yesterday by media covering Saturday's Big 12 games.
Kingsbury set a school record with his third career 400-yard passing game in leading Texas Tech to a 38-19 win against then-No. 21 Kansas State. It was the Red Raiders' first win against a ranked opponent since 1999. He finished the game with 409 yards passing on 32-of-47 attempts.
Kingsbury also had 413 yards of total offense and threw four touchdown passes to three different receivers. He tied a Texas Tech all-time mark with his sixth career 300-yard passing game. The 409 yards is fourth on the Red Raiders' single-game passing list,

Chiefs lineman's broken leg might not end his entire season
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City Chiefs coach Dick Vermeil, hungry for a shred of good news after a 1-4 start to the season, said yesterday that offensive tackle Victor Riley is not necessarily lost for the season with a broken leg.
"There is a chance he could come back this year," Vermeil said. "The broken bone is in place. What they want to see is how injured the ankle is below the break."
betore Riley's injury, the Chiefs lost cornerbacks Ray Crockett and William Bartee on the same play. Bartee was able to get back into the game, but Crockett, the team's best and most experienced defensive back, broke his hand.
"I've coached a long time, but this is the first time I lever lost two cornerbacks on one snap," Vermeil said. After a week or two, Crockett could be fitted with a cast that allows him to play. Barlee, who had been alternating with right cornerback Eric Warfield, will step in full time for Crockett.

Rugby teams garner wins in weekend matchups
The Kansas men's rugby club team milked a win from the Omaha Goats' club team this weekend, and the women's club team trounced the University of Nebraska. 44-0.
The men's team won 20-13, propelled by scores from Oliver Parkinson, Prairie Village senior, and Lawrence residents Matt Swartz and Kevin Napier.
Kansas has improved in recent years, reheating a rivalry that had fizzled in previous meetings.
The two teams used to meet twice each year. Kansas endured a thrashing nearly every time.
"if they used to just stomp on us every year," said Matt Drogo, Olathe junior. "But these last couple years we've beaten them pretty bad. They don't like it when we do that."
The men's team takes on its perennial rival, Truman State University, at noon Saturday at Westwick Field.
In the women's game, Katie Lofton, Montrose, Colo., graduate student, scored four tries for Kansas. A try in rugby is worth five points.
Sophomore Laura Wolfe added two tries for Kansas.
The women's team plays next against Truman State at 1 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 27 at westwick Field, Kansas beat Truman State in last year's Ozark Tournament.
To get to Westwick Field, take Iowa Street/U.S. Route 59 south to Douglas County Route 458 west. The fields are about 1 1/2 miles west of Route 59.

No.5 Oregon to play without star tackler
The Associated Press
EUGENE, Ore. — An ankle sprain means Oregon likely won't have its leading tackler, free safety Keith Lewis, when the No. 5 Ducks meet Stanford on Saturday.
Lewis was injured when he was pursuing California quarterback Kyle Boller during Saturday's 48-7 win against the Golden Bears.
Boller was knocked to the ground, one of Cal's linemen hit linebacker David Moretti from the back and "the two rolled over Keith's ankle," Bellotti said.
The only other injuries Oregon (6-0 overall, 3-0 Pac-10) had against Cal were an aggravation of a chronic shoulder problem for defensive end Seth
McEwen that might cause him to miss practice yesterday.
Reserve tailback Onterrio Smith suffered a possible concussion.
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Michigan State coach Bobby Williams says his Spartans are getting better on the road.
Victory boosts Spartans
The improvement could be crucial, with two away games and powerful Michigan awaiting the Spartans in the weeks ahead.
The environment Saturday will be the Metrodome in Minneapolis, where the Spartans take on Minnesota. Michigan State is 3-1 overall and 1-1 in the Big Ten, while the Gophers are 1-4 and 0-3.
Michigan eager to see action
ANN ARBOR, Mich.
The 10th-ranked Michigan Wolverines are ranked as high as they have been this year and are the only Big 10 team without a conference loss, but they have to wait before they play again.
Michigan (5-1, 3-0 Big 10) will not play again until traveling to Iowa on Oct. 27.
"Going into the bye week, it's good news and bad news," said Michigan coach Lloyd Carr.
"We need some time to rest and heal up. But when you're playing with momentum, you hate to see an open weekend. But we can use it because we need to get some guys back," he said.
Bettis is at home at Arrowhead
"I like this place," said Bettis, who last week
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jerome Bettis probably wouldn't mind if every game was against the Kansas City Chiefs — even if he had to play them on the road.
Having another big game against one of his favorite opponents, Bettis ran for 112 yards and set up two scores as the Pittsburgh Steelers held off a late rally by the Chiefs for a 20-17 victory on Sunday.
In five of six career games in Arrowhead Stadium, Bettis has rushed for more than 100 yards.
became the 14th player in NFL history with more than 10,000 yards rushing.
The Steelers (3-1) never trailed against the Chiefs, who fell to 0-3 at home for the first time since 1980. Kris Brown kicked two field goals, including a 55-yarder, and Chad Scott intercepted a pass from Trent Green and ran it back 61 vards for a touchdown.
"We certainly made it interesting," said Pittsburgh coach Bill Cowher. "We did a good job for about 3 1/2 quarters keeping their crowd out of it and we brought them back into it. Give them
credit. They fought back."
Holmes broke free on a 26-year run for Kansas City's first touchdown in two games. Then his 23-year run keyed a second drive that he capped with a 1-yard touch-down vault with 2:39 to go
Green then passed to Tony Gonzalez for the 2-point conversion, putting the Chiefs within a field goal of tying the game.
But on third-and-3 with two minutes left from the Pittsburgh 28, Amos Zereoue went over the right side for 10 yards. The Chiefs, out of timeouts, could only watch Kordell Stewart take a knee.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — In a last minute bill-signing flurry, Gov. Gray Davis approved measures to expand the rights of domestic partners and tighten requirements to purchase handguns.
He also vetoed dozens of bills, including one that called for an increase in workers compensation benefits, citing the state's growing budget crunch.

Davis signed a measure that provides about a dozen rights enjoyed by heterosexual married couples to more than 16,000 registered gay, lesbian and senior domestic partners in California.
It lets those who register as domestic partners with the California Secretary of State's Office
Opponents label it an assault on traditional marriage and family values. In March 2000, more than 60 percent of California voters said that marriage should be between a man and a woman.

Davis also signed twin handgun bills that would require gun buyers to pass a written test and demonstrate to a safety instructor that they know how to operate the weapon.
and a handgun safety certificate. The bills' requirements take effect Jan.1, 2003.
The identical Senate and Assembly bills require handgun buyers to provide a thumb print, proof of residency, identification
Democratic lawmakers endorsed the bill, saying that California pays some of the lowest injury benefits in the country. The bill would have increased payments to workers by up to $2.4 billion over five years.
Davis said he vetoed the bill because of "shaky economic times," and he said it failed to make adequate improvements to the state's workers compensation program.
In the final hours before his deadline, Davis vetoed a measure to boost workers compensation benefits. He has rejected two similar measures in the past.
Legislators sent the governor about 1,000 bills when they adjourned their 2001 session Sept. 15.
Supporters call Davis' decision the biggest expansion of domestic partner rights in the country, putting the state alongside Vermont and Hawaii for acceptance of same-sex couples.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5P
Wildcats hoping to claw out of unfamiliar Big 12 territory
The Associated Press
R. C. Slocum sees nothing different about Kansas State's football team, other than its record.
After years of spectacular success, Kansas State is 0-3 in the Big 12, its worst start in
C
conference play since 1992. The Wildcats' starting quarterback is banged up, and coach Bill Snyder, one of the most driven men in the business, is searching for answers.
Slocum, the Texas A&M coach, is hoping that search extends another week. A&M plays at Kansas State on Saturday.
"I don't see them being a whole lot different," Slocum said yesterday. "They've had some bad breaks this year. They're still a good football team. Looking at them right now (on tape), they look pretty good."
Kansas State's slide started with a game that indicated the Wildcats would be as good as ever, a 38-37 loss to Oklahoma that easily could have been reversed. The offense sputtered the following week in a 16-6 loss at home to Colorado. Surprise turned to shock when Kansas State lost on Saturday to Texas Tech, a team that had lost to the Kansas Jayhawks a week before.
Once ranked 11th, Kansas State is now out of the Top 25 for the first time since early in the 1995 season. Snyder said it was no time to start making wholesale changes.
"We have tried to remain consistent about what we do and not jump around week to week thinking we have to fix or retool everything." he said.
"We have to find out what our strengths are, what our weaknesses are, find our mistakes and try to eliminate them. If we can't,
are we asking our players to do things they are not capable of doing? If so, let's not ask them to do those things.
“It's not any different now that we've lost three in a row than if we had won three in a row. Our approach is the same. It's benefited us in the past and I know it will benefit us in the future.”
Kansas State faced Texas Tech without quarterback Ell Roberson, offensive lineman Matt Martin and defensive end Melvin Williams, all sidelined by injuries. Several others were injured during the game.
Snyder refuses to blame those injuries for his team's struggles.
"I would never attempt to do that," he said. "If someone's missing, someone has to step up and provide the performance needed to win. That's our belief."
Snyder did say he thought his team played hard throughout the game at Tech and noted that some
"A youngster without character would not have done that," he said. "I think their resolve was apparent to me at that time."
Baylor also is 0-3 in the league but considering the schedule, that's not so puzzling. The Bears are in a brutal stretch, facing Texas A&M and Nebraska the last two weeks and playing at No. 2 Oklahoma Saturday. The other loss was at Iowa State.
of the players who limped off with injuries later returned.
"That's one good thing about being in the Big 12 — you get to measure the success of your program and the growth of your program against the best," Baylor coach Kevin Steele said. "In seven of the last eight quarters, playing 5-1 A&M and 7-0 Nebraska, we played pretty well."
"It's making us a better football team."
There have suggestions of a
quarterback controversy brewing at Oklahoma, though not in coach Bob Stoops'mind.
"I don't know what a controversy is," Stoops said.
A controversy could be when the No.2 quarterback starts playing better than the starter. Jason White has played well in relief of Nate Hyb1 each of the last two weeks.
White threw four touchdown passes in a 38-10 victory at Kansas on Saturday after Hybl was just 5-of-11 for 15 yards.
"In our team you earn your position each week," Stoops said. "I've said that all along. That position is no different than any other. That's something we'll deal with this week and we'll have a starter ready."
Kansas coach Terry Allen said using two quarterbacks could help the Sooners because White brought a change of pace with his
running ability.
The Tigers lost to Iowa State 2014 after failing to score on four plays inside the 10-yard line at the end of the game.
"His speed allows him to be multidimensional," Allen said. "It broadens the offense you have to face because of the potential with White in the option and quarterback runs."
Kansan Classified
Missouri will try to bounce back from a bitter loss when it continues its long rivalry with Kansas in Lawrence.
On one of those plays, a 2-yard run by Zack Abron on third down, Missouri had only 10 players on the field. A wide receiver did not go out after the offense huddled on the sideline.
"It did not affect the play, number one," said coach Gary Pinkel. "Number two, it's also irresponsible on my part. That's my job."

Craven emotional after first Winston Cup victory
The Associated Press
MARTINSVILLE. Va. — Ricky Craven lingered in Victory Lane, talking to anyone in sight and reveling in the moment — his first Winston Cup victory.
When he crossed the finish line yesterday and crew chief Mike Beam told him he won, Craven was overwhelmed.
"It's never happened in my life," said Craven, who began regularly racing in the Winston Cup in 1995. "But time stopped and I thought, 'That's what I've worked 20 years for.'"
Craven won the Old Dominion 500 at Martinsville Speedway by holding off Dale Jarrett in a door-to-door, last-lap duel. It was his first triumph in 174 career starts and one that erased a lot of bad memories.
There was his resignation from Hendrick Motorsports in 1998
after eight races sandwiched around a bout with postconcussion syndrome.
There were the past two seasons in which he was without a full-time ride and talk in the garage area that his career might be finished.
And then, suddenly, there was victory.
"I began racing in 1982 with the idea of getting to Winston Cup and winning a Winston Cup race, and I've got to admit, the last couple of years, I wasn't sure I'd ever get the chance," he said. "But here we are."
In a race postponed a day because of rain, Craven pulled away from Jarrett on a restart with 13 laps to go, opening a wide lead. Then Jarrett began reeling him in, pulling up close to his bumper with about two laps to go on the .526-mile oval.
NASCAR
"I found comfort in knowing he was in my mirror because the guy is a gentleman," Craven said. "I knew he would race me hard, but I knew he wouldn't rough me up."
On the final lap, Jarrett went outside Craven heading into the first turn. The cars were door-to-door down the backstretch, with Craven hanging onto the inside position that eventually helped him hold off Jarrett.
"I ran the last 10 laps as hard as I could possibly run, but I went into turn one with a lap to go and said, 'I've got this thing,'" he said.
Jarrett was disappointed but thrilled for Craven.
"He did what he's supposed to do," said Jarrett, who was among the first to congratulate Craven.
Craven's Ford beat Jarrett's across the line by .141 seconds, giving owner Cal Wells his first victory in NASCAR's premier series.
The race proved a bonanza for points leader Jeff Gordon, who cruised home in ninth place and added 97 points to his lead over Ricky Rudd. Gordon leads Rudd by 334 points with six races remaining.
continuing
"It's just a nail-biter until this thing is over with anyway," Gordon said. "What happened to Ricky Rudd today can happen to me next week or the week after that. You just never know."
Bobby Hamilton, who won on this track in the spring of 1998 while driving for Richard Petty, seemed to have the car to beat until he and rookie Kevin Harvick got caught up in a bumping battle neither won.
Hamilton caught Harvick with 28 laps left and bumped him in the second turn to take the lead. But Harvick got him back in turns three and four, spinning him out and allowing Craven to slide underneath for the lead.
"I'm not sure I could have beat Bobby straight up because we were so even," said Craven, who led 94 laps to Hamilton's 92.
One more caution brought everyone together for a dash to the finish, and Craven had just enough to hold off Jarrett for the last 13 laps.
Ward Burton finished third in a Dodge, followed by defending series champion Bobby Labonte's Pontiac and Jeff Burton, also in a Ford. The rest of the top 10 included Benson in a Pontiac, Mark Martin in a Ford, Mike Wallace in a Ford, Gordon in a Chevrolet and Sterling Marlin in a Dodge.
Marlin moved into third place in the points race. Gordon started the race with a 237-point lead over Rudd. Gordon needs to finish 11th or better in the last six races to clinch his fourth series title. Only Petty and Dale Earnhardt, each with seven, have won more.
The race was typical of Martinsville, with drivers fighting for position and getting knocked around. The yellow flag flew 13 times.
Before 400 laps had been run, Gordon knew Rudd and Tony Stewart were both parked in the garage, their days over early and their engines blowing plumes of smoke.
Stewart, third in points, went out after 124 laps while running third. Rudd's engine gave way with 104 laps to go while chasing Hamilton for the lead.
McGwire hints at retirement after Arizona eliminates St. Louis
Injury-riddled season prompts 'Big Mac' to consider future
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Mark McGwire's future is the biggest question facing the St. Louis Cardinals in the offseason.
And, really, it's not that big of a question anymore. McGwire, who said he was "fried and embarrassed" about his performance the last week of the regular season and again hinted of retirement after the Cardinals were eliminated in five games by the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday, devolved into a member of the supporting cast during one of his most difficult seasons.
McGwire, 38, is fifth on the
career home run list and needs only 17 for 600.
McGwire: The 38-year-old slugger is 17 home runs shy of 600.
But he often complained he was playing on one leg this year after coming back too quickly from surgery to correct patella tendinitis in his right knee and batted on!<sup>1</sup>
187, striking out every 2.5 atbats.
In the playoffs he was again a non-factor, going 1-for-11 — a single — and struck out three times in Game 5. In the ninth inning, manager Tony La Russa sent in a pinch hitter for Big Mac.
"Believe me, if this guy doesn't play anymore, it would be my
lowest moment as a manager,
unless we had won the game," La
Russa said. "My heart was pure. I
thought I owe that to our club. I was
just trying to win a game."
McGwire is signed for two more seasons at $30 million, and doctors have told him it took a full year to recover from the surgery he underwent last October.
He told reporters after the loss Sunday that he didn't play for money or numbers.
"Your body can only go so far," McGwire said. "I'll probably let you guys know through fax or e-mail."
McGwire had little to do with the second-half surge that put the Cardinals, a .500 team at the All-Star break, in the playoffs with a 93-69 record. Rookie Albert Pujols and J.D. Drew became the focal points of the offense, not McGwire.
The Cardinals were an NL-
best 54-28 at home. But they hurt themselves the final weekend of the regular season, losing two of three at Busch Stadium to the Houston Astros and losing the NL Central title and home-field advantage in the postseason.
That meant they faced the daunting prospect of getting past the Diamondbacks' big two of Curt Schilling and Randy Johnson, and Schilling beat them twice.
Pujols and Drew both disappointed at the plate in the postseason.
Pujols, likely the NL rookie of the year after hitting .329 with 37 homers and 130 RBIs, was 2-for-18 against Arizona. His lone big hit was a two-run homer off Johnson in Game 2.
Drew tied Game 5 with an eighth-inning homer off Schilling, but was 1-for-12 the rest of the series.
Matt Morris, who tied
Schilling for the league lead with 22 victories, distinguished himself in two epic battles against Schilling.
He gave up a run in seven innings in a 1-0 Game 1 loss and one run in eight innings in Game 5.
"There wasn't a bad game in the five, especially the two where Schilling and Matt got hooked up," La Russa said.
This was Morris' first year back in the rotation since he underwent elbow ligament transfer surgery that wiped out his 1999 season.
"Hopefully, this has taken away any doubt about the caliber of pitcher he is," said catcher Mike Matheny.
The rotation is solid behind Morris, led by Woody Williams (15-9), who was 7-1 with a 2.28 ERA after joining the team in August in a low-key trade for outfielder Ray Lankford.
Darryl Kile (16-11), Dustin Hermanson (14-13) and rookie Bud Smith (6-3), who pitched a no-hitter against the Padres in September and then won Game 4, give the Cardinals a full slate without Rick Ankiel, expected to compete again for a major league job next spring after a wild season that landed him in rookie ball.
The Cardinals' other major decision during the offseason is finding a closer.
Dave Veres slid from 29 saves to 15 this year because of various injuries and ineffectiveness, and La Russa went with a bullpen committee most of the second half.
La Russa does not have a contract but is expected to sign an extension soon.
He also waited until after the season before agreeing to a two-year deal in 1999.

Recent grant could boost careers in research
By Matt Norton Kansan staff writer
A professor at the University of Kansas Medical Center has received a $6 million grant to establish a research infrastructure network linking all nine Kansas universities.
Joan Hunt, distinguished professor of anatomy and cell biology at KU Med, said the grant, which is from the National Institute of Health, might be the first program linking all nine universities.
Hunt said the grant, titled K-BRIN (Kansas Biomedical Research Infrastructure Network), was designed to accomplish several long-term goals: to identify and attract undergraduates who are potential biomedical researchers, to develop channels of communication between researchers from the various Kansas universities, to build a bioinformatics network that can be used as a research tool on all campuses and to recruit new faculty and give them tools to be competitive for additional NIH funding.
"Ultimately, our goal is that all students will understand that biomedical research is a good career option." Hunt said. "We want to be sure that everyone who really likes science has a lot of information about getting their training here and working here."
Outstanding students in sciences will compete for opportunities to spend a summer or special one- to two-week, intensive training seminars working in labs at the Med Center. Hunt said.
Tim Burnett, Merriam doctoral student in anatomy and cell biology, said his only exposure to the labs at the Med Center was a one-day visit during his interview process for graduate school.
Burnett said spending time working in the labs before committing to enter graduate school would have been beneficial.
been sentenced. "It will be a terrific hook into the field," Burnett said. "It's a lot different doing science instead of reading about it and listening to lectures."
Hunt said the grant would cover a three-year period. Although she did not expect dramatic results right away, she said she had been assured the grant would probably be extended for another three years.
"One of my major headaches is working out ways to assess whether or not the program is a success," Hunt said. "I expect one of those ways will be the GRE scores of the students who apply or the number of students who apply to graduate programs."
apply to graduate programs
Hunt said she ran a lab of 14 people, which was considered large by Med Center standards. This program was designed in part to alleviate a problem she had over the years, she said.
"The one thing that we all know is that it's very difficult to find the highest-quality students and attract them into research," Hunt said. "We need a greater pool of research scientists."

ASKING FOR CHANGE
Design students give department poor grade
THE RIVERSIDE STUDENTS WERE EXCELLENT AT THE INFORMATION SHOW.
Toni-Marie Montgomery, Dean of the School of Fine Arts, (right) listens to Kurt Saberi, Overland park senior, as he discusses problems with the art and design facilities, staff and curriculum. "As a senior in graphic design, I would like to see some changes before my graduation date," he said. "With communication and cooperating from the dean, we are hoping to see good results."
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
Sarah Bray, St. Louis senior, presented a petition to the dean with the signatures of 148 visual communications students displeased with the School.
Visual communications students gathered last night to inform the dean of fine arts that the school is in dire need of educational improvements.
The main problems outlined in the petition included the lack of a consistent full-time staff, overlapping classes in students' schedules, scarcity of quality computer equipment and a lack of mentors for students.
He said one of the major problems was the lack of full-time professors.
Marc Shank, Liberal senior, said the design department had begun to neglect the students' needs in recent years.
"It used to be that this was a highly prestigious design school where professors wanted to come." Shank said. "I
think it is teering on becoming less and less of a department. You want to be proud of your department."
Toni-Marie Montgomery, fine arts dean, said she already knew about many of the concerns brought up during the meeting, including the need for more full-time professors, an insufficient number of desks in classrooms and needed improvements to computer equipment.
She said the students clarified how big the problems were.
"We are hoping that we can get people with experience and for one of those positions, we have to have experience," Montgomery said. "We're making the commitment."
Montgomery said she was trying to set up fund-raisers to help pay for improvements to the computers and classroom equipment.
She acknowledged that computers available to the visual communications students were in need of improvements.
"I had a visit down there, and I was anpalled," she said.

Student visa policy examined
Legislators propose new rules to monitor international students
Paul Smith Kansas staff writer
The attention given to student visis is misdirected, said Lynne Vanahh, associate director of the Office of International
Amid reports that one of the Sept. 11 terrorist hijackers entered the country on a student visa, proposed legislation before the U.S. Senate would strengthen existing policies on monitoring of foreign students.
Bills proposed by senators Pat Roberts of Kansas, Kit Bond of Missouri and Diane Feinstein of California all concern restriction and improved coordination of information about student visas.
Joe Potts, director of the international students office, said it was technically impossible for foreign students to overstay their visas because those visas had no expiration date.
"There's a lot of misinformation in the media about students overstaying their visas," she said.
Student and Scholar Services at the University of Kansas.
"A student visa is like any other visa it gets the person into the country," Potts said.
But not all students from foreign countries fulfill their visa commitment, said Mike Jaromin, deputy district director for the Immigration and Naturalization Services, or INS, in Kansas City Mo.
Once here, foreign students must maintain their student status by being enrolled full-time, Potts said.
"Some of the students never go to
school, or drop out," Jaromin said.
Those individuals may either return home, he said, or "drop into general society and nobody would ever know about it."
Vanahill said she agreed something needed to be done concerning visas, but it made little sense to pick on students
Vanahill said that the proposed changes regarding the student visa program were not innovative and that it was unclear how the Senate proposals might affect KU international students.
According to a press release from the office of Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., her proposals would require schools to report all courses taken by foreign students to the INS. They would also include fingerprint and photograph information within the INS Foreign Student Electronic Tracking

Fall break will remain on calendar in the future
By Danny Phillips Kansan campus editor
As long as KU students don't abuse their four-day weekend, the University's new fall break policy should be in the schedule for years to come.
But not any time soon.
"If it has a negative affect on the semester, then it's in jeopardy," said Provost David Shulenburger.
The Calendar Committee implemented the Oct. 18-19 break into the academic calendar last year after approval by the Board of Regents, but at least one University official said he hoped students weren't tempted to stretch fall break into a full week by skipping classes.
We wouldn't do anything like that until we had considerable experience with it," he said.
Tom Beisecker, University Council president, said it would take several years of evaluation before the council would even consider removing fall break from the schedule.
Those who were instrumental in getting a fall break for the University stress that no instructional days are lost during the semester. The Calendar Committee also shortened finals week from six to five days, and exam times have been reduced from three hours to two and a half.
Carol Holstead, former Calendar Committee member and associate professor of journalism, said fall break should have been a "nobrainer," but the issue had been politicized.
pondered.
"There's a lot of pressure around this time of year," she said. "Thanksgiving comes too late in the semester to provide any relief."
"It really wasn't that big of a deal," she said.
Speaking strictly as a faculty member, Holstead said the extra time off hadn't created any logistical problems for her class schedule other than the few minor adjustments that were always required.
For other departments, like chemistry, fall break has created a bit more inconvenience. The weekly lab sessions scheduled for this week were canceled because half are on Thursday.
But Alfred Lata, chemistry lecturer, said that wasn't enough reason to give fall break a thumbs down.
"I would like a full week of fall break" he said.
Regardless, many students are making the most of their four-day break by either going home or taking a vacation.
Katy Munch, Bellevue, Neb., sophomore, and two of her friends are going to Winter Park, Colo., to take advantage of her friend's family cabin.
"We have been stressed out with midterms lately, and we decided we needed a break," she said.
"She's been wondering why I haven't been home and when I'm coming home," Reichman said of her mother.
Iana Reichman is returning home to Boca Raton, Fla. — ground zero of the anthrax attacks — to surprise her mother. Reichman, a senior, hasn't been to Florida since last December.
And anthrax isn't much of a concern, she said.
"My mom isn't any more worried then the rest of the country," Reichman said.

U.S., Pakistan pressures group to discuss replacing Taliban
The Associated Press
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - Afghan politicians, fighters from the hills, the elderly exking's men and even some dissident Taliban are meeting this weekend, under pressure from Pakistan and the United States, to try to agree on a broad-based, multiethnic government to replace the Taliban regime.
The fear in Washington, Islamabad and other capitals is that the U.S.-led military campaign might topple the Taliban before the opposition can agree on the makeup of a new government. That, in turn, could plunge the country into even deeper anarchy.
the country into ever deeper The political process needs to be placed on a fast track in order to forestall the possibility of a political vacuum," Pakistan's President Gen. Pervez Musharraf warned yesterday after a meeting with Secretary of State Colin Powell.
Colm Power. "It should not lag behind the fast-moving events in the military field, nor should any attempt be made by any warring faction to impose itself on Afghanistan in the wake of the military strikes against the Taliban," he said.
If the air campaign is not curtailed, the Taliban may be weakened to the point that the front line north of Kabul will collapse with the alliance overrunning the city with or without international support.
"I hope they don't take Kabul," said Hedayat Amin Arsala, the king's representative who is in talks in Pakistan.
Pakistan, which maintained close ties to the Taliban until the Sept. 11 attacks, has urged Washington not to allow the northern alliance to take control, arguing that the largely ethnic minority movement would never be accepted by the Pashtun majority, which now are represented by the Taliban.
Ishaq Gailani, head of the Solidarity Movement of Afghanistan based in Peshawar, wants a future government in Afghanistan that includes neither Taliban nor northern alliance.
"Any government that includes either warring groups will fail," he said.

City Commission OKs intersection rezoning for Home Depot
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Lawrence moved one step closer to welcoming a Home Depot store after 3-2 votes at last night's City Commission meeting. The votes approved the rezoning of 23.97 acres on the northeast corner of 31st and Iowa streets from a single-family residence district to a planned commercial district.
district to a planner commercial area. This means the area now known as Gaslight Village, a mobile home park, can become a Home Depot store. The Commission also voted to approve a preliminary development plan for Home Depot that outlines how Home Depot can use the property, and what improvements need to be made to the streets to accommodate traffic from the new store.
Jim Henry was one of the three commissioners voting for the plan and rezoning

Because the development plan was approved, First National Development, the company representing Home Depot, is required to improve the intersection at 31st and Iowa streets, possibly adding two left-hand turn lanes to ease the flow of traffic turning from 31st Street south to Iowa Street.
Commissioner Sue Hack also voted with
the majority. She said she did so because Home Depot came back with a revised plan that reduced the size of the store.

store. Mayor Mike Rundle and Commissioner David Dunfield voted against both issues, citing the amount of money the city would have to spend on the project and the number of instances in which Horizon 2020, the city's planning code, was violated.
With the approval of the plan, the city will have to pay about $1 million in taxpayer's money to help with the addition of lanes and stop lights.
Dunfield said he was most concerned that allowing Home Depot to build without following planning code would invite other businesses to do the same, causing the area around 31st and Iowa streets to become as congested as 23rd Street.
Rundle agreed.
"If anything should have taught us a lesson, it's 23rd Street and the bad planning decisions that lead to the development of 23rd Street," he said.

Rudolph Vrba, an escapee of Auschwitz, shares the story of his experiences in the death camp. About 300 people attended his speech, "War, Morality and Deception: An Auschwitz Perspective," last night at the Spencer Museum Auditorium.
Auschwitz escapee describes Holocaust details, strategies
By Eve Lamborn Kansan staff writer
Auschwitz escapee Rudolph Vrba used his experiences in the Nazi concentration camp to argue that the Holocaust was a systematic plan executed with specific, strategic goals.
chambers. He described mountains of personal belongings left behind, sorted by thousand-man teams of prisoners. The process was so thorough that even clothing deemed unusable was turned into paper. Workers wrenched gold teeth from the mouths of dead prisoners and searched body cavities for more hidden wealth.
Vrba, professor emeritus at the University of British Columbia, gave a lecture last night before a crowd of 300 at the Spencer Museum Auditorium titled, "War, Morality, and Deception: An Auschwitz Perspective."
Vrba arrived at Auschwitz in 1942 at the age of 18 and spent 21 months and 7 days as a prisoner. He detailed the system whereby Jews arrived by train and were separated into those who were put to work and those who were put to death in gas chambers.
"I could observe the ongoing Holocaust from a very good seat, though not a very comfortable seat," he said.
"It was the almost perfect organization of the murder and robbery of 6 million people," he said.
Vrba called the Holocaust an instrument of war and said the murder of 6 million Jews was accompanied by the robbery of their wealth. This wealth was redistributed and used to win the goodwill of citizens in occupied Europe and bolster the buying abilities of Nazi Germany.
"The cruelty of the Germans was perpetuated in a rational, purposeful way, otherwise it couldn't continue as smoothly as it did for a number of years." Vrba said. "From my own experience, I would like to attest to their exceptional rationality."
He called the Holocaust "a complex sociological process," and "a very rational instrument of war." Vrba said he personally witnessed the asphyxiation of 1.75 million Jews in the gas chambers of Auschwitz before his escape with another prisoner, Alfred Wetzler.
He declined to give the details of his escape, which he said were too complicated to explain briefly. He said he explained his escape in his book, I Cannot Forgive.
Frank Baron, professor of Germanic languages and literature, said Vrba escaped with unique knowledge of the concentration camp. He and Wetzler wrote a 40-page report the same month they escaped, exposing the secretive and deceptive operations of the Nazis. Baron said this report was sent by Allied forces to Hungary, where many people awaited deportation.
"It had an impact on how Holocaust history proceeded," Baron said. "Many thousands of people were saved by this knowledge."

Lori Root, Topeka freshman, said she went to hear Vrba speak out of curiosity.
"Hearing about the Holocaust from a personal perspective is a special experience," she said.

Tae Hahn, Lawrence senior and naturalized citizen originally from Seoul, Korea, said fingerprinting those with student visas was necessary. Hahn first came to the United States on a student visa. About five years ago, he immigrated with his family.
"Imigration here is not that easy," Hahn said. "But the procedure is all based on paperwork. Once they get in, it's hard to track them down."
Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., introduced legislation on Oct. 2 to create a committee that would coordinate and prioritize programs concerned with defense and terrorism.
Sarah Ross, press secretary for Roberts, said the coordinating committee was necessary because more than five other committees within the Senate deal with public health and
safety issues.
safety issues Ross said if the committee was enacted, student visas and other immigration concerns would be among many of the issues discussed.
Sen. Kit Bond, R-Mo., introduced on Oct.4 the Visa Integrity and Security Act, which would require schools to report foreign students who do not attend classes within 30 days of the
semester's start. That information would then be reported to the FBI.
There are 1,677 international students enrolled at KU this fall, while the most recent INS information reported that 5,162 persons with student visas were admitted into Kansas in 1998.

EDITORIAL
Fall break nice but a full week would be better
A good thing could be great if students had a real autumn escape
Tomorrow begins what could be four of the most important days of the entire school year—fall break. As a new experiment implemented by Chancellor Hemenway, the University of Kansas is canceling classes tommorow and Friday to allow students time off from the grind of higher education.
As students, you have the opportunity to use these 96 hours weekend hours in a nearly infinite number of life altering activities. You can crank out the next great American novel. You can finally finish the fantastic Halloween costume you've been promising friends you'd create for years. You can start the outlines of the 1000 plus pages you need to read for this semester's finals. You can hit each and every one of the string of bars along Massachusetts Street. The possibilities are endless.
Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but is there any reason why the University isn't allocating an entire week off from school? This would allow more time for everyone to spend with their families or to actually take a true vacation within or outside of the United States. If we have the ability to do this in the spring, it's just as feasible to do so in the autumn in the interest of symmetry and student morale.
Well, almost. The problem is that 96 hours go by fairly quickly. This is especially true for students who will be commuting home by automobile. Those that live in nearby states or can't afford a plane ticket must choose between going nowhere for their break or spending up to 25 percent of their time getting to and from their destination.
A missed week, of course, would need to be made up somewhere along the line in the same semester. So school should start few days earlier in August, when it is too hot outside to really enjoy the time off anyway. Adding a week of classroom time at the beginning of the semester is certainly preferable to extra days at the end, as it is now scheduled.
Because of the fall break, the University is extending students' schedules to December 23 this semester. That means that some people will be done with their exams less than 24 hours before the busiest day of the year for airlines.
For students who cannot afford plane tickets, the only option might be traveling for nearly a full day on snow-packed highways just to spend the holidays with their families.
The editorial board is not complaining about a much-needed break from schoolwork. Moving extra days from the end of the semester to the beginning and expanding the break to a full nine days, however, would be immeasurably better for student morale and ultimately, student achievement.
dent achievement.
Just something to consider for next fall.

Free speech applies to ads, too
A full-page ad that ran on page 5B in Monday's edition of the Kansan may have confused and even upset some readers.
readers. The ad with the headline, "End states who sponsor terrorism," was placed by the Ayn Rand Institute, an organization that promotes the philosophical doctrine of objectivism, and the KU Objectivists, a student group promoting the same ideals.
The ad presented the perspective of Leonard Peikoff, the founder of the Ayn Rand Institute. Peikoff addressed America's current war against terrorism and how the United States should handle the ensuing battle.
this ad, which appears in the form of an editorial, could have confused some readers who thought it was a news story or editorial written by a Kansan reporter or a columnist because of its appearance.
This same ad has created controversy on other college campuses around the nation, said Matt Fisher, Kansan sales and marketing adviser. In an e-mail from Candy Heckard, the business adviser of The Daily Collegian at Penn State, she said the ad created ongoing controversy among students after the advertising staff decided to run it
Among some of the controversial aspects of Peikoff's commentary, he wrote that a proper war "must be fought in a manner that secures victory as quickly as possible and with the fewest

He also said, "The greatest obstacle to U.S. victory is not Iran and its allies, but our own intellectuals...The multiculturalists — rejecting the concept of objectivity — are urging us to 'understand' the Arabs and avoid 'racism.'"

Although they were both apprehensive about running the ad at first, citing its potential to make some students feel uncomfortable, Mariani said it did not violate any aspects of the Kansan's advertising acceptance policy.
U. S. casualties, regardless of the countless innocents caught in the line of fire."
Kate Mariani, Kansan advertising sales manager, said she did not necessarily agree with the viewpoints expressed in the ad, but she and Jenny Moore, Kansan business manager made the decision to run the ad anyway.
She also said that the decision to run the ad was not based solely on generating revenue, but rather that the advertising in the Kansan provides readers with a different forum to express their opinions and should not be censored, just like the other aspects of the newspaper.
Mariani is right. If anything, the ad provided a different perspective on the recent terrorist attacks and America's reaction. Whether you agree or disagree with Peikoff is not the point. It offered a perspective about the war on terrorism not often presented by the Kansan. As long as someone chooses to pay for an ad and it does not violate any Kansan advertising policies, they should have the right to be heard.
This leads to another important aspect about the Kansan that often confuses readers. When a controversial ad runs in the paper, readers tend to email or call in complaints to the editors first, said Brendan Woodbury, associate opinion page editor.
The Kansan is composed of two separate staffs for news and advertising. The two work independently of each other, with each making their own decisions without the consent of the other. The news editors do not have any control over advertisements, and the same applies for advertising managers with news stories.
By understanding this unique relationship, readers will be better informed about both who exactly to go with concerns and how what they see in the Kansan every day is not the decision of just one individual.

More perks with Fair Trade coffee
Coffee. It is the second most actively traded commodity in the world, behind oil. In ancient Arab tradition, a husband's failure to provide his wife's daily coffee quota was grounds (pun intended) for divorce. Voltaire was said to consume 50 cups per day.
---
Whether it is kochii in Japan, masbout in Egypt or a cup of Joe in the U.S., coffee is a staple beverage around the world. While coffee is a boon in our daily life, exploitative trading practices in the coffee industry have made it a bane for coffee farmers.
Though the world coffee economy today is worth $50 billion, coffee producers receive just $8 billion according to *The Guardian*, leaving coffee farmers steeped in poverty and unable to meet their basic needs. Many small coffee farmers do not produce enough to export directly and are forced to sell their crop through middlemen called "covotes" who siphon off the profits.
In addition, the market value of coffee is often too low to provide farmers with a living wage. As of April 2001, coffee was at an all-time low of 49 cents per pound. To make ends meet during the "lean" months between harvests, farmers must often sell future rights to their crops to the coyotes at below-market rates for credit, plunging the farmers into debt and perpetuating their poverty. Ironically, many coffee farmers do not earn enough in a single day to afford a latte made with the beans they harvested.
In the1950's, alternative trade organizations (ATOs) emerged with the intent to combat exploitative trade, promoting direct trade agreements

with producers that circumvented middlemen, thereby guaranteeing the producer a fair price. In1986, Equal Exchange founded the first ATO to deal exclusively in Fair Trade coffee, launching a movement that has gained popularity during the last decade, particularly in Europe.
Fair Trade coffee is purchased directly from democratically organized farmer cooperatives that guarantee farmers a floor price of $1.26 per pound (15 cents extra for organic), and Fair Trade farmers receive an additional 5 cents per pound above market value if it exceeds the floor price. In addition, Fair Trade farmers are guaranteed access to up to 60 percent of the contract crop value in credit prior to the harvest, which helps keep the farmers out of debt. Fair Trade farmers earn a living wage that allows them to meet their basic needs, afford health care, and keep their children in school.
at Jittermugs in the Market. The commission then took its campaign to Massachusetts Street with its first "Coffee Crawl," on Friday and visited local coffee houses and encouraged them to serve Fair Trade coffee. Three coffee shops, Henry's, 11 E. Eighth St.; the Bourgeois Pig, 6 E. Ninth St.; and Aimee's Cafe and Coffee House, 1025 Mass., already offer Fair Trade blends, and the other shops expressed interest in offering Fair Trade in the future.
Purchasing Fair Trade coffee is a small gesture on our part that has significant consequences for coffee farmers. In our global economy, we cannot afford to subsidize poverty by supporting exploitative poverty practices. It is in our best interest to be socially conscientious consumers.
Why choose Fair Trade coffee? Perhaps the more appropriate question is, why not? Because the middleman is eliminated, the price of Fair Trade coffee is comparable to that of non-Fair Trade gourmet blends. The growing popularity of Fair Trade means increased availability and selection, and you are supporting a higher quality of life for farmers.
Ask your favorite local coffee shop if they serve Fair Trade. Buy it by the pound at the Community Mercantile, 901 Iowa. Take this opportunity to support socio-economic justice. Juan Valdez would thank you.
In September 2001, the KU Green Party formed the Lawrence Fair Trade Coffee Commission to promote Fair Trade coffee both on and off-campus. In September, the commission successfully lobbied the KU Memorial Corporation Board to serve Fair Trade coffee in the Union, so look for it now served

While American citizens continued to find ways to unite in the wake of last month's terrorist attack, the Greek community of the University of Kansas raised
$2,408.75 in the Stomp out Terrorism five-drive.
The drive's purpose was to encourage each member of the greek community to donate at least $5.
The money raised in the five drive was sent yesterday afternoon to the New York Firefighters Relief Fund. The drive ran from Sept 18 through Oct 2.

Ill., senior, said the money was going to help pay for supplies needed for recovery in New York City.
"I think it was a good way for the greek community, for us to come together because in times
like this it is nice for us to unify," she said
Brinkman said she gave $20 to the drive because it was going to a good cause. She said she was pleased to see some students donate up to $100 for the drive.
Molly Whitehair, Kappa Delta president and Abilene senior, said her sorority raised more than $1,100. Whitehair said every Kappa Delta member gave a minimum of five dollars, but some gave more.
"I was really proud of the women in my chapter who gave so much after giving money to other organizations." Whitehair said.
Brinkman said the original goal for the drive was to unite all Greek communities in the Big 12 Conference. She said she called Panhellenic offices in all of the schools. Money raised from the schools would have been collected and sent from the entire Big 12 Greek community.
However, some schools started their own fundraisers, she said.

Brinkman said Texas Tech University and the University of Oklahoma participated in the drive. Totals from their fundraising efforts were not yet known. Brinkman said the University of Missouri and the University of Texas had each started separate fund-raisers.
"They said they would support us although they would not donate money," Brinkman said.

Cosmosphere looks toward better days
The Associated Press
HUTCHINSON - The Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center hopes to operate in the black for the rest of the year, after months of financial losses.
The Cosmosphere announced layoffs last week, citing a drop in tourism caused by, among other things, gas explosions and a hepatitis outbreak earlier this year. So far, attendance has dropped 25 percent from last year.
Ollenburger said the Cosmosphere will soon announce a slate
"Since our last meeting, we've obviously made some adjustments to compensate for a new reality," Jeff Ollenburger, the Cosmosphere's vice president of marketing and programs, said at a board meeting Monday. "We expect to maintain a balanced budget for the rest of the year."
of hands-on educational activities such as trying on space suits for older elementary and middle-school students and their families. Those activities, which will run on Saturdays, will likely start in late October and early November.
"They'll be very inexpensive or free," Ollenburger said of the activities.
Cosmosphere President Max Ary also said the museum might look beyond attendance for revenue.
Ollenburger said that so far, the Cosmosphere had lost the $300,000 budget surplus it had been anticipating at the beginning of the year.
In addition to last week's announcement of the first layoffs in the space center's 21-year history, the Cosmosphere has also shortened its fall hours from 9
a. m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday through Thursday.
The Cosmosphere is still open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
Those shortened hours could allow the building to be rented out more often, Ary said, by groups holding wedding receptions, Christmas parties and other events, without having to share the building with museum guests.
In the aftermath of last week's layoffs — affecting four full-time and several part-time employees
— Ollenburger said Cosmos sphere workers have done a good job focusing on what needed to be done.
He also said that October attendance, particularly from visiting school groups, was up and the IMAX Theater's "Bears" film had also done well.

The biggest goal, he said, is for the Cosmosphere to gain momentum going into the year-end holiday break. The week between Christmas and New Year's Day is typically one of the Cosmosphere's best in terms of attendance, officials said.
"It's been a difficult week and difficult year," Ollenburger said. "We can't wait for 2002 to get here."

Ashcroft says hoaxes are 'no joking matter'
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Assailing recent anthrax hoaxes as "no joking matter," Attorney General John Ashcroft said yesterday those who perpetrate anthrax or other terrorist scares will be prosecuted.
with the FBI chasing down thousands of reports of possible anthrax exposures — most turn out to be false alarms or practical jokes — Ashcroft said such scares were unlawful and "gross transgressions of the public trust."
With FBI Director Robert Mueller at his side, Ashcroft said a raid of hoaxes across the country had taxed the resources of an already burdened law enforcement system.
"They create illegitimate alarm in a time of legitimate concern," said Ashcroft.
The warning came as suspicious letters, unmarked packages and nonstop hoaxes have spread anthrax anxiety around the globe. No anthrax cases have been confirmed outside the United States.
In the United States, the FBI has received more than 2,300 reports of incidents or suspected incidents involving anthrax since Oct. 1. Most of them have been false alarms or practical jokes, said Mueller.
But agents treat every report as potentially the real thing, he said.
"We have no choice but to assume that each reported instance is an actual bio-threat," said Mueller.
An FBI warning last week about possible terrorist attacks within the next few days is still in effect, so authorities cannot afford to be diverted by phony scares.
"The threat of bioterrorism is no joking matter," the attorney general said.
Rabbi's mistress testifies in murder trial
The Associated Press
CAMDEN, N.J. — The mistress of a rabbi charged with killing his wife testified about their affair yesterday, describing a relationship that began the day her husband died and included a discussion in which he told her he dreamed "violence was coming" to his spouse.
Rabbi Fred Neulander, 60, is accused of arranging the beating death of his wife Carol in 1994 so he could carry on the affair with Elaine Soncini, a former Philadelphia radio personality. He is charged with murder and conspiracy.
Elaine Soncini testified that she met Neulander the day her
husband, Ken Garland, died in December 1992. After the funeral, she said, the rabbi asked if they could meet for lunch and they were having "relations" within two weeks.
Their meetings were usually at her house during long lunches. He parked in her garage, she said, so people wouldn't see his car with its "clergy" sticker parked in the driveway.
But sometimes, she said, they had "relations" in his office at Congregation M'mkor Shalom, the temple he founded with his wife in the wealthy community of Cherry Hill southeast of Philadelphia.
Defense lawyer Jeffrey Zucker acknowledged to jurors that the rabbi was having an affair, but said his client was not on trial for adultery.
Sonicini said she and Neulander talked as many as 10 times a day. She said she told Neulander at one point in 1994 about bad dreams she'd been having and he told her about some bad dreams of his own.
"He dreamed that violence was coming to Carol," she said.
Soncini, who didn't look at Neulander as she testified, spoke admiringly of him.
spoke admiringly.
"I thought he was brilliant," she said. "I thought he was extremely articulate, very
expressive — superior to most anyone I had ever met."
After his wife was killed on Nov. 1 of that year, she said he told her: "Trust me, when God closes a door, He opens a window."
After that, Soncini said, their relationship cooled.
Carol Neulander was beaten to death with a metal pipe in her living room as her husband was at synagogue. A few months later, Neulander resigned as senior rabbi, citing unspecified moral indiscretions.
Prosecutors later identified Neulander as a suspect, saying his wife was likely killed by a hit man. Soncini acknowledged
tneir affair, saying she ended it after learning he was suspected of arranging his wife's killing to continue their relationship.
Last year, private investigator Leonard Jenoff called The Philadelphia Inquirer to arrange a meeting with a prosecutor. He said the rabbi had offered him $30,000 to kill his wife.
Jenoff, who said he came forward because he feared the rabbi might be acquitted, said he and a former roommate beat the woman to death. Both men pleaded guilty to manslaughter and agreed to testify against Neulander.
Missing Texas heir may have murdered three
The Associated Press
GALVESTON, Texas — A heir of a wealthy New York City real estate family became a wanted man yesterday after he failed to show up for his arraignment yesterday on charges of murdering and dismembering a neighbor.
Robert Durst, 58, had been free on $250,000 bail in the slaying of Morris Black, whose remains began turning up Sept. 30 in Galveston Bay.
"There are a number of addresses
across the United States for Mr. Durst," prosecutor Kurt Sistrunk said. "We have no idea where he is."
no idea where he is.
Durst's attorney, Mark Kelly, said he had spoken with Durst on Monday to tell him about the court date.
min about the courtDurst, the son of the late multimillionaire Seymour Durst, lived across the hall from Black. Bloodstains and a bloody knife and boots were found in Durst's apartment, police said. Police have given no motive for the slaying.
Durst's lawyer has said he is innocent.
Durst's lawyer has said he is indebted. While Durst is charged only in the death of his 71-year-old neighbor, authorities from California and New York have converged on Galveston to investigate whether he is connected to two other killings.
In New York's Westchester County, authorities recently reopened the 1982 disappearance of Durst's 29-year-old wife, Kathleen. Durst said that he last saw her when he left her at a train station.
The investigation led authorities to Susan Berman, a longtime friend of Durst's in Los Angeles. But before they could interview her, Berman was found shot to death in her home last year.
California authorities have not named Durst as a suspect in Berman's death.
Durst's father was the patriarch of a real estate company that owns several New York skyscrapers. The younger Durst has been estranged from the family since the early 1990s.
U.S. embassy bombers to be sentenced tomorrow
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The first men convicted of carrying out Osama bin Laden's 1989 edict to kill Americans wherever they are found will be sentenced under tight security tomorrow in the deadly 1998 bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa.
The four men were found guilty last May in a trial that laid out in detail what the government knew about bin Laden and
his network of terror. Their sentencing will take place at the federal courthouse in lower Manhattan, just blocks from the ruins of the World Trade Center.
U. S. marshals with shotguns guard the courthouse. Barricades block the adjacent street, and steel posts protect the building.
ple, including 12 Americans, and led to an international manhunt for top leaders of bin Laden's al-Qaida terrorist network.
The four were arrested in the Aug. 7, 1998, bombings of the U.S. embassies in Nairobi, Kenya, and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The attacks killed 224 peo
The six-month trial attracted few spectators beyond government employees and the families of the victims. But the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that have been blamed on bin Laden have spurred new interest in the trial and the evidence the government collected.
Two defendants — Mohamed
Rashed Daoud Al-Owhali, 24, and Khalfan Khamis Mohamed, 28 could have gotten the death penalty, but jurors fearful of making the men martyrs did not impose it.
Two others — Mohamed Sadeek Odeh, 36, and Wadih El-Hage, 41 — were convicted after the evidence showed they had played significant roles in al-Qaida.
Prosecutors say El-Hage, the only U.S. citizen among the group, led "a secret double life," traveling the globe to raise
money and smuggle weapons for the terror plots. They said Odeh was an explosives expert.
Al-Owhai and Mohamed face a mandatory life sentence
Security had already been increased around the two federal courthouses in downtown Manhattan in the past year.
Since the Trade Center attack, visitors are required to submit bags and briefcases for inspection outside the courthouse.

AIDS epidemic keeps growing in South Africa
The Associated Press
CAPE TOWN, South Africa Researchers unveiled a report yesterday estimating AIDS could kill as many as 7 million South Africans by 2010, and said government officials disputing the findings simply did not understand them.
The report, commissioned by the Medical Research Council, said AIDS would account for one-third of all
deaths in South Africa this year — and nearly two-thirds by 2010 without radical changes in personal behavior and more government action to fight the disease.
"South Africa is experiencing an HIV/AIDS epidemic of shattering dimensions," the report said. "These shocking results need to galvanize efforts to minimize the devastation of the epidemic."
It predicted average life expectancy would drop from 54 to 41 years in the country.
The government, which has drawn widespread criticism for its handling of the AIDS crisis, wanted to delay the report's release until December to coincide with publication of another set of AIDS statistics compiled by Statistics South Africa, a government agency. AIDS activists accused the government of suppressing the report to hide the extent of the crisis.
However, a partial copy of the report was leaked to the media, and the government decided to allow its release. Statistics South Africa called the study badly flawed, saying the samples were not representative and assumptions about the probability of HIV transmission were not necessarily accurate.
sarily describe Using a lower transmission rate would reduce the number of projected AIDS deaths by 2010 to between 1 million and
2 million, Statistics South Africa said.
An estimated 4.7 million South Africans are infected with HIV.
Kod Dorrington, a professor at the University of Cape Town's Center for Actuarial Research and one of the report's authors, said Statistics South Africa's assessment of the report was "prime evidence of the little knowledge or experience they have in this area."
Al-Jazeera to air only part of U.S. interview
The Associated Press
CAIRO, Egypt — President Bush's national security adviser went on Arabic television hoping to explain U.S. actions in Afghanistan, but the influential Al-Jazeera station repeatedly aired only comments likely to inflame Arab passions.
The incident underlines the West's difficulties in getting its message across to the Muslim world: The war against terrorism is not a war against Islam and Arabs.
Al-Jazeera, based in Qatar and widely watched in the Middle East and by Arabic speakers in the United States, has emerged as a key opinion maker because of its independent editorial policy — a rarity in the region.
tional policy.
In her interview with Al-Jazeera on Monday, National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice demanded that the Palestinians halt violence against Israel and expressed Washington's concerns about Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. She also discussed Washington's reasons for its attacks on Afghanistan and assured Muslims they were not the target of the war on terrorism.
Viewers, however, will not see the remarks on Afghanistan and the war on terror until the full interview is aired, a broadcast that by late yesterday had not been firmly scheduled.
But the comments on the Palestinians and Iraq — all likely to anger
Hamiq Qandil, a veteran Egyptian TV anchor, told The Associated Press,
"America has already lost ... before the whole interview is aired."
Arabs were aired more than a dozen times to promote the interview.
Al-Jazeera officials said they got the tape of Monday's interview in Washington yesterday morning and needed time to translate it and cut it to fit into their 30-minute weekly program "Exclusive Interview," which airs after midnight in the Mideast.
Al-Jazeera news editor Ahmed Sheikh said his station believed the West was getting a fair chance to present its case to Muslims and Arabs.
According to a transcript of her interview released by the White
Oraib El-Rantawi, director of the Jerusalem Center for Islamic Studies in Amman, Jordan, said the arguments would be more convincing "if they were accompanied by some crucial solutions for problems in the region, especially the Palestinian issue."
House, Rice repeated recent comments by other U.S. leaders in favor of statehood for Palestinians.
Reda Helal, an Egyptian columnist, said that the West's public relations campaign should have preceded the military campaign. Then "the United States and the West would have been able to win the struggle over the Arabs' hearts and minds."
Iraq denounces Arab countries
BAGHDAD, Iraq — President Saddam Hussein criticized Arab nations yesterday for doing little to oppose the U.S. air campaign against Afghanistan.
The Associated Press
"I am sorry for the stand governments of Arab countries have adopted toward Afghanistan because it does not please Muslims," the official Iraqi News Agency quoted Saddam as
His comments followed an Oct. 10 meeting of foreign ministers representing the Organization of the Islamic Conference, which failed to condemn the attacks on Afghanistan.
condemn the attacks against Saddam said he felt the "sorrow" non-Arab Muslims felt at the "weak stands" taken by Arab Muslim nations, who should be examples to follow. Few Muslims in Afghanistan are Arab.
low. Few Muslims in Iraq has denied any relation to Afghanistan's Taliban rulers and Osama bin Laden al-Qaida network, though a newspaper owned by Saddam's eldest son recently praised bin Laden.
Iraqi religious leaders issued a fatwa, or religious edict, yesterday banning Muslims from "helping blasphemers."
The statement, which was carried by the official news agency, warned Islamic nations "not to fall into the trap ... set during the aggression against Iraq in 1991," a reference to those who sided with the United States during the Gulf War.
Pakistan and Turkey, two nations with Muslim populations, have offered the United States logistical support in its military campaign against Afghanistan. Other Arab Muslim nations have frozen the assets of individuals or groups named by the United States as being linked to terrorism.

TV networks pull episodes dealing with timely issues
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — CBS has yanked tomorrow's episode of The Agency because of its tootimely plot: a CIA effort to fight an anthrax threat to the United States.
"We certainly don't want to do anything to add to the country's fears about anthrax," network spokesman Chris Ender said yesterday.
In the past two weeks, anthrax has been discovered in three states and the District of Columbia. Tests have shown that at least 13 people either have the disease or were exposéd to its spores. One person has died.
So far, all of the anthrax appears to have been delivered in letters.
The Agency episode originally was to air Sept. 27. but was pulled
after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
It was among a number of changes networks made in the wake of the tragedy.
The anthrax episode was rescheduled to air Oct.11 but was bumped that night by President Bush's primetime news conference. Rescheduled to this week, it has now been postponed indefinitely.
"As anthrax cases and public fears spread throughout the weekend and into Monday, it became clear we couldn't broadcast this episode." Ender said.
Airing in its place will be an episode about American miners taken hostage in Indonesia amid a coup threat.
Trying to be sensitive to the public mood and events is a particularly thorny issue for The Agency and the handful of other
spy and crime shows debuting this season.
CBS pulled the pilot episode for The Agency, which opened with a Middle Eastern scene of a booby-trapped hostage, gagged with a U.S. flag, dying in an explosion.
In the new Fox series 24, about a U.S. counterterrorist unit, the pilot aired after editing of a scene showing a bomb exploding on a plane.
And NBC scrapped a script with a terrorist story line for the new action series UC: Undercover, which focuses on a Justice Department crime-fighting unit.
"It's very difficult to do a serious drama about the CIA without colliding with the headlines in some way, shape or form." Ender said of The Agency.
Pop icons to perform charity show as fund-raiser for WTC victims
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Usually, it's hard to get top pop acts to share the same bill, unless it's an awards show.
But this weekend, dozens of stars including Paul McCartney, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Tim McGraw, 'N Sync and the Backstreet Boys plan to perform at three benefit concerts to raise money for the victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, and raise morale too.

"It's everybody and anybody — people that you would never think would take the stage together are coming together for the first time," 'N Sync's Lance Bass said yesterday.

Tickets for the RFK Stadium event ranged from $25 to $75 and have sold out, officials said, raising approximately $2 million. Parts of the show will likely be aired later on television.
Also on Sunday, McGraw, Sara Evans, Trisha Yearwood, Brooks & Dunn and other country stars will take part in a 21/2-hour concert at the 13,000-seat Gaylord Entertainment Center in Nashville, to be aired live on the CMT cable network and on radio stations across the nation.

The weekend concerts kick off Saturday with the "Concert for New York City" at Madison Square Garden. Along with the Backstreet Boys and Destiny's Child, that event features McCartney, Bowie, Elton John, Eric Clapton, Billy Joel, U2's Bono, Marc Anthony and others.
Tickets range from $200 to $5,000 and are still available. The five-hour show will be aired live on VH1 without commercials, and on the radio. Columbia Records plans to release a double-disc CD from the concert, with most proceeds going to charity.

Mailrooms Secured As Bioterror Looms
Corporate mailrooms are being pressed into duty as the first line of defense against bioterrorism.
defense against bovine diseases.
As the anthrax scare that began at a Florida tabloid publisher nearly two weeks ago spreads across the country, mushrooming with news that employees at NBC news headquarters and a Microsoft office in Nevada received letters containing the potentially deadly bacteria, companies are scrambling to shore up protections against attacks masquerading as routine mail deliveries.
Businesses nationwide are stocking up on rubber gloves and bacteriakilling bleach for employees who handle mail. New York-based Archer Management Services, which runs company mailrooms, says some of its New York customers don't want any mail delivered to them for the time being, figuring important documents can be sent by e-mail or fax instead.
Indeed, some companies may already be prepared for bioterrorism—albeit unwittingly—because most of their important documents are increasingly arriving over the Internet.
New Life Awaits Twin Towers' Metal
Bob Kelman doesn't usually get sentimental about steel being unloaded at the Hugo Neu Schnitzer East Corp. scrap-metals recycling yard in Jersey City, N.J.
But as he watches 30-foot steel beams being hoisted off barges and onto the New Jersey shore these days, Mr. Kelman chokes up. "The World Trade Center is on our dock," the general manager says.
the general manager.
Mr. Kelman runs one of two metal-processing companies hired by the city to recycle tons of steel and other metals from the Sept. 11 disaster. Market demand will likely send much of the steel, which had come from Asia, back there to be used for boats, skyscrapers or bridges. But metal also will find its way into homes as refrigerator coils, construction nails or water heaters.
Experts say about 250,000 tons of structural steel from the complex will be recyclable as scrap material, as well as about 40,000 tons of aluminum sheeting from the towers' exterior.

Demand for Oil Decreases Quickly
World oil demand is falling fast following the Sept. 11 attacks on the U.S. and the economic aftershocks rocking the international economy.
the international Energy Agency said that oil demand is now expected to contract by some 600,000 barrels a day during the current quarter to 76.2 million barrels a day, as reduced air travel lowers the need for jet fuel and economic growth expectations are downgraded for this year and next. A month ago, the IEA was expecting demand to grow by 500,000 barrels a day during the current quarter.
Online-Music Probe Broadens Its Scope
The Justice Department widened its antitrust investigation of the online music business, sending civil subpoenas across the industry that focused on alleged use of copyright rules and licensing practices to control distribution.
The subpoenas, formally known as civil investigative demands, were issued last last week and disclose a broad federal investigation into "intellectual copyright licensing of intellectual property rights associated with provision of music over the internet." The probe encompasses the two new online-music ventures—pressplay and MusicNet—backed by the industry's five major recording labels.
in the subpoenas demand documents on terms and conditions in internet music licensing and the setting of rates in the emerging online-music market, and investigators seem to be trying to pinpoint whether any illegal coordination took place among record labels.

The Bush administration this week will recommend ways to spend the second half of $40 billion in emergency funds that Congress approved after the Sept. 11 attacks. Expected allocations, in billions:

Antidepressant Use Is On the Rise
After struggling for months to maintain his fledgling media empire, Steven Brill is shuttering Brill's Content magazine and selling the media-news Web site Inside.com.
Americans are looking for pills to help them cope with these turbulent times. U.S. pharmacies during the last two weeks of September issued nearly 1.9 million new prescriptions for antidepressants such as Zoloft, Paxil, Celexa and Prozac, among others, an increase of $16\%$ from the same period last year, according to NDCHealth of Atlanta, a healthcare information-services company. Use of anxiety drugs and sleeping aids also is on the rise as patients filled more than two million new prescriptions, a $7\%$ increase from the same period last year.
Mr. Brill, founder of American Lawyer magazine and Court TV, founded Brill's Content in 1998, billing it as a watchdog over U.S. media. Despite its splashy launch, Brill's Content had trouble developing a broad consumer audience and was read mostly by professional journalists. In an effort to increase its appeal, it changed its format a number of times.

Architects and Engineers Study Ways To Make Skyscrapers Safer
In assessing the rubble of the World Trade Center, architects, engineers and scholars are finding lessons that could affect the future of skyscrapers—from their height to the width of interior stairwells.
By DEAN STARKMAN
100 stairwells
Designers, for instance, are now looking at the building codes of Britain and some Asian countries that require separate stairways and freight elevators for rescue personnel, along with widening landings, all to avoid crowded scenes that investigators say hampered rescue efforts in the 100-story World Trade towers.
The challenge, says T.J. Gottesdiener, a managing partner of architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP, "is separating what is appropriate from what is a reaction." His firm had no role in building the World Trade towers.
nessing an office romance without ruining your professional life.
Also attracting some interest; so-called refuge floors, Required by building codes in China, the Philippines and elsewhere, the open-air floors are spaced 10 to 12 floors apart, allowing inhabitants to breathe while waiting for rescue personnel. Stairwells are required to open onto the floors, which were conceived in part to avoid scenes such as occurred during the 1993 World Trade Center bombing when office workers smashed windows to escape smoke drawn up through the building from a "chimney effect" caused by the blast.

Earth, Wind and Design Flaws
The deliberations come despite a widely held belief that designing buildings to withstand the impact of airplanes is a waste of resources that are better spent elsewhere, including
The World Trade Center towers withstood stresses far beyond those foreseen in original specifications, allowing many occupants to escape. But famous buildings have tumbled from a variety of causes:
- Binishiel Domes, Australia: Developed in the 1960s, architect Dante Binin's technique was to lay concrete over a balloon of plastic fabric. Two of these domes, both over Australian schools, failed when the complex construction method was not followed scrupulously.
- C.W. Post College Dome Auditorium, Brookville, N.Y. Built in 1970, this shallow dome on the campus of Long Island University collapsed under heavy snow and ice cover in 1978. No one was hurt. Faulty design was the culprit.
- Kemper Memorial Arena, Kansas City, Mo. Home to two Kansas City sports teams and the location of the 1979 Air National Convention, the arena was built in 1973 but collapsed during heavy winds and rain in 1979. Miraculously, no lives were lost. No single cause was found for the accident.
- Hyatt Regency Hotel, Kansas City, Mo.: Two crowded walkways in the newly-built hotel collapsed in July 1981, killing 114 and injuring almost 200. Analysis found that the walkways had not been built as they were originally designed.
- Pier 34, Philadelphia, Penn.; The 91-year-old pier, which held a popular nightclub, collapsed in May 2000. Three people died and 31 were injured. Inspection three days before the accident revealed structural deficiencies that indicated the pier was in danger of collapse.
on airport security. Despite the recent attack, many designers don't believe high-rise buildings themselves will become less desirable or useful.

"Are we not going to build buildings with five sides anymore because they hit the Pentagon?" asks Carol Willis, an architectural historian and director of the Skyscraper Museum, in New York. "We're asking the wrong questions."
Still, some lessons are obvious. The attack dealt a fatal blow to fledgling attempts to revive the monumentalist school of American architecture seen with the completion of Chicago's Sears Tower in 1974. Nascent plans—in Chicago, Donald Trump's plans for the Sun-Times property, as well as a much-discussed 2,000-foot tower in Miami—are less likely to proceed, certainly on such a grand scale. So, too, does even the
idea of rebuilding the World Trade Center towers to their former height.
Some developers, though, are trying to proceed with business as usual. The developer of the Miami project, Guillermo Socarras, is still trying to arrange financing, according to a spokesman, who added, "he's not going to allow 19 or 19,000 terrorists to change a project he's worked on for three years."
ing to build back the Trade Center to 110 floors," Mr. Gottesdenier says, "People won't be comfortable there."
The towers were believed to have been the first to rely on "shaft-wall" interior cores, made of gypsum-based wallboard instead of harder materials, masonry or reinforced concrete. The shaft-wall design was considered a breakthrough at the time, favored for its fire resistance and air-tight qualities. A question today is whether abandoning shaft-wall construction is worth the additional weight and cost.
Other lessons will be less noticeable and will take longer to have effect. Two teams of engineers will review the so-called performance of the Pentagon and the Trade Center and surrounding buildings and issue a report to the Federal Emergency Management Agency and other interested

parties. The review will explore the buildings' overall resistance to collapse from the moment of collision, as well as the effects of the fire. The report, which won't be ready for 18 months or so, will likely result in recommended changes in model building codes. Possible areas under review include the strength of columns and beams, and the number and width of stairwells.
At a recent conference of structural engineers held at a rustic inn in Manchester, N.H., engineers puzzled over the problems posed by the destruction of support columns after the two jetliners collided into the towers. They also studied the effect of burning jet fuel on fire-proofing systems, and the subsequent "progressive collapse," when the steel columns finally gave way.
Standards May Change
Among other issues, engineers said, the fire grew hot faster, burned far hotter and stayed hot longer than the 1,400 degrees and higher found in standard "time-temperature" tests used to rate protection materials. Engineers said the standards themselves, which approximate the heat of burning desks, carpets and paper, may have to be changed.
Interest In M.B.A.s Surges

in numbers of people attending business-school recruiting receptions. Participation in the Graduate Management Admission Test has also climbed steadily with 19% more Americans and 26% more foreigners being tested in the third quarter compared with a year earlier.
Colleges and universities are reporting sharp increases in inquiries about their M.B.A. programs
ing for scrutiny.
"At a time of crisis, people try harder to find an anchor," says Jeffrey Farden, dean of the Yale School of Management. "They may have no idea what the world will look like now, but they feel sure better credentials will get them a better job." Yale received 17,300 inquiries about its master's of business administration program in the third quarter, up 45% from a year earlier.
The expected bounty of business-school applications partly reflects pent-up demand. During the robust job-market and dot-com heyday, many people postponed their business-school plans. Now they're looking for security.
Admissions directors at some Midwestern and Southern business schools say they are being contacted by people who want to escape New York, but the major business schools in Manhattan continue to draw more, not less, interest.
not less, more. Business schools wherever they are will be a risky, expensive gamble for applicants this year. They will invest hundreds of dollars in the admission test and prep courses, only to find fierce competition to get into the top schools. Some of the most prestigious schools admit only 10% to 15% of all applicants.
M. B.A. hopefuls who do make the cut will graduate as much as $100,000 in debt. And landing a lucrative job at graduation is far from a sure thing. Next spring's graduates are expected to face one of the most dismal recruiting seasons in memory.
But at a time when many people are looking for hope, prospective business-school students say an M.B.A. looks like their best shot. "I think things will be great by 2004 when I graduate," says Joel Karp of Hoboken, N.J., who lost his job this year as a research analyst at Webnoize Inc. "Entertainment technology and e-commerce are not dead by any means."

TRIATHLETES IN TRAINING
Two Kansas athletes discuss their varying devotions to the three-phase sport.
Story by Sarah Warren
Sara Brinkley is resurrecting part of her life one mile at a time.
Most days of the week, the Winfield senior ties up her tennis shoes and races out the door for a little run, short bike ride or a trip to the pool. And with each workout logged Brinkley is one step closer to her goal: competing in a triathlon.
A triathlon would be a difficult goal for almost anyone, as an Olympic-length triathlon is a 1-kilometer swim, 40-kilometer bike ride and 10-kilometer run.
But, for Brinkley, the difficulty of achieving her goal is extra difficult because she's been there before.
Because she's been there before. After 13 years of training, five summers at the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo., and 150 races, burn-out — both physical and mental — had taken its toll and Brinkley needed time away.
"I think mentally I just needed a break and took two years off," she said. "Right now I'm just trying to do some base-training conditioning."
Taking two years off from such a big part of her life left her refreshed, yet not prepared to dive right into competing competitively.
tively. "It's hard right now. I really want to race again but I've never been this out of shape before," Brinkley said. "So it'll be a long and hard transition."
Ironically, Brinkley's transition into a competitive athlete wasn't long or hard. She had the connections and the resources to excel at her sport before she hit the third grade.
Her success at a young age snowballed and at the age of 15, Brinkley was invited to the Olympic Training Center. Each summer she headed to Colorado to train and compete in races across the United States.
"My dad competes also, so when I was about seven years old he got me to compete in little kid races," she said. "I had a lot of success at a young age. And when you're a little kid and you have success like that, it makes you want to keep doing it."
When time for college came around, Brinkley was offered a cross country scholarship at the University of Kansas. She jumped at the chance and had an understanding with then-coach Gary Schwartz to run minimally during the indoor and outdoor track and field season so that she could use that time to focus on triathlons.
But at age 20, that no longer happened.
She stopped training for triathlons and quit the cross country team.
"I was very much burnt out. I just wanted to be a minority student," Brinkley said. "I'm almost done with school, and now I need to decide if I need to get on with my career or train."
And while Brinkley ponders delaying her entry into the work place to focus on training, Brian Hollenbeck uses his triathlon training as something to take his focus off of school.
giving him the focus on his studies. Hollenbeck, Leawood junior, uses his triathlon hobby for relaxation from pre-med classes. In the past two years, while Brinkley needed a break from training, Hollenbeck took up triathlons to replace the void he felt without high school sports.
A varsity cross country and track runner in high school, he walked
onto the Kansas cross country team as a freshman. But when he decided not to walk on a second time, he took up the sport his father, Larry, had competed in for the last two decades.
"I used to go watch him compete as a kid," said Hollenbeck, who, like Brinkley, did kiddie triathlons.
Grade-school participation aside, Hollenbeck had originally hesitated in picking up the sport and making it his own.
"I have an inner-ear problem, so I couldn't really swim until two years ago when I started training," Hollenbeck said. "I knew I had to learn before I could compete, so I just jumped in."
He's competed in seven races in the past two years, including one at the beginning of last summer with his father. Most recently, he finished the Olympic-distance course in the Lawrence Memorial Triathlon on Sept. 23 at Lonestar Lake.
Eventually, he found that ear plugs and a swim cap could keep him in a pool and he finally began to enter some races.
"I had been working up to doing an Olympic-distance course, so it was nice to get one done," he said. "I just wish it would have went better."
In triathlons, one minor problem can set someone back hours, and Hollenbeck had just that kind of setback.
Hollenbeck had just that kind of setback.
After finishing the swim, his admittedly weakest event, Hollenbeck got on his bike and pedaled swiftly through the woods and fields around the lake, trying to make up time. One "pop" ended his brisk ride.
ride. "Halfway through the bike ride, my back tire blew," he said. "They didn't have any trucks to haul me in, so I had to bike with the flat. I wanted to quit but I decided to do the run so that I could get the mind off the bike."
"Oh well, it was the last one of the season," he said, shrugging his shoulders. "I'll do some more this summer, my got to go well."
His flat cost him 40 minutes
So now he, like Brinkley, will rebuild until the spring, one mile at a time.

Allen knows he needs to control team
Terrv Allen finally gets it.
It might be too late, but he understands what he needs to do to win at the Division-I level, and he is doing everything short of washing the football team's uniforms to gain a new level of control.
Allen announced in a press release yesterday that all team practices for the next two weeks would be closed to the public and media.
Kansas' coach made the decision because he knows the possibilities. The Jayhawks have two wins and need four more to get to a bowl (read: save Allen's job). Victories over Missouri, Iowa State and Wyoming are very possible and Kansas State is very vulnerable right now.
In yesterday's release Allen said, "We feel like this is in the best interest of the team and our preparation. We are playing our two biggest rivals over the next two weeks and while I don't

Allen: closed next weeks of practice
normally like closing practice, I think it makes sense for this time period."
If Allen is really worried about someone from Missouri or Kansas State watching Kansas' practices and learning more than they should about the offense the Jayhawks are going to try to run this week, then closing practice makes sense.
But why, then, has Allen had open practices since he's been at the University? In the press release he said, "there is nothing smart about allowing anyone and everyone to walk in off the street and examine your game plan."
So what was smart about it for the last four years?
It took him four years, but he understands now.
The only people who will get in a huff about Allen closing practice are the media. In past years Allen tried to be media-friendly. He let television stations film parts of practice and let reporters roam the practice field. He was the opposite of Kansas State's Bill Snyder. Now, television cameramen and photographers might moan about not getting footage and pictures for stories during the week. Reporters will still be able to interview players after practice.
As for closing practice to the public, how many people, who aren't the spies Allen is trying to keep away, have actually watched the Jayhawks run through drills and calisthenics? Football practice is something only a football coach can enjoy.
Fans want wins. They don't care if practice is closed or open.
It's perfectly acceptable to not allow the public or media to watch practice, but Allen's logic is a little perplexing.
Implementing a closed-practice policy five years into his job makes you wonder what Allen had been thinking for the previous four, but if it helps him get wins against Missouri and K-State, he just might have extended his stay in Lawrence.

Kansas-Missouri battle will be equal matchup in Saturday's game

Kansas and Missouri — the similarities are uncanny.
Both teams are 2-3. Both teams are 1-2 in the Big 12 Conference. Both lost at home Oct. 13. Both won the trophy.

the week before on the road by three points.
Kansas freshman kicker Johnny Beck sealed the game against Texas Tech with a 37-yard field goal in double overtime. Missouri kicker Brad Hammerich did the same for his team against Oklahoma
State with a 36-yard boot in triple overtime.
Each team has shuffled two quarterbacks. Freshman quarterback Mario Kinsey is Kansas' playmaking threat. Sophomore Zach Dyer is its backup quarterback. Junior Darius Outlaw is Missouri's maestro for the big play. Junior Kirk Farmer is its pocket passer. Farmer will start Saturday after recovering from an injury. Dyer may start for Kansas because of an injury to Kinsey. Kansas has seven new assistant coaches. Missouri has a new head coach, Gary Pinkel, and a fresh slate of coaches.
And so on, and so on.
"It's a big game, especially for me since I am from the area," said Dyer, who took all the snaps with the No. 1 offense yesterday because Kinsey was nursing a sore toe.
Yesterday's practice was closed to the
media for the first time all season and for the first time in Kansas coach Terry Allen's five-year tenure. Allen said that he had closed practice when he was head coach at Northern Iowa.
Allen said that he also would have closed practices the week before the Kansas' visit to Kansas State on Oct. 27.
Allen said that his decision was based both on proximity and maintaining a degree of offensive secrecy.
"This is the first year that we have no huddled," he said. "I don't want everybody out there with the things that we do offensively with the no-huddle. Some of the people to the west and to the east are known for their signal stealing."
Kansas will enter Saturday's 1 p.m. game with a handful of key players nursing injuries. Starters Kyle Grady, Kinsey, Reggie Duncan and Termaine Fulton

The damp turf and cool air reminded the Kansas women's golf team yesterday of what might have been, had the first two rounds of the Marilynn Smith/Sunflower Invitational tournament been played Monday at Alvamar Golf Course in Lawrence.
The team finished 10th of 17 teams in yesterday's 18 holes. Oklahoma took first place.

Rose fired a 5-over-par 77 on her way to tie for ninth place, but she said she could hardly describe yesterday's round as one of her best.
Rose continued to be the team's most consistent golfer. She turned in the team's only top-10 individual finish of the season.
"There were a couple of holes I had to grit it out for pars," Rose said.

Soccer team moves up in rankings
Kansan sportswriter
By Ryan Wood
The formula seems simple: keep winning, keep moving up the rankings...
After winning two conference games on the road last weekend, the Kansas soccer team has moved up a spot and is ranked fifth in the central region on both the Soccer Buzz poll and the National Soccer Coaches' Association of America poll.
Furthermore, both Soccer Buzz and the NSCAA also released their Top 25 national polls yesterday. The Jayhawks received votes in both polls, barely missing their first national ranking ever.
Kansas (9-3 overall, 5-1 in Big 12 Conference play) will take on perhaps its most challenging weekend to date. No. 17 Texas A&M comes to town on Friday for a 4 p.m. kickoff at Super Target Field. The Jayhawks then go on to play No. 12 Texas on Sunday at 1 p.m. at Super Target Field. Texas boasts a 7-3 overall record and stands at the Big 12 standings with a perfect 5-0 mark.
Coach Mark Francis said the possibility of two wins would depend on the team showing up ready to play.
"If we play well,we can play with both of them," he said.
With a makeup game against Drury scheduled for Tuesday, Kansas will be playing three home games in five days.
Francis said the cluster of games might be physically and mentally draining on the team.
"It's gonna be hard," he said
Kansas has an 0-5 all-time record against Texas A&M, with the latest loss coming last year at College Station, Texas by the score of 3-0.
Notes:
Kansas hasn't fared much better against Texas, holding an 0-4-1 mark. The Jayhawks lost to the Longhorns 5-2 last year in Austin, Texas, with current Jayhawk senior forward Natalie Hoogveld tallying an assist in the game.

Two recruits join'Hawks; third opts for Oklahoma
By Ryan Malashock Kansan sportswriter
The Jayhawks landed their first two recruiting prospects of the season when Jeff Graves and Moulaye Niang orally committed to the Jayhawks after visiting this weekend.
It looks like the recruiting tool known as Late Night with Roy Williams paid off once again for the Kansas men's basketball team.
Graves' mother, Sharon Graves told Alliance Sports that her son considered Kansas a favorite throughout the recruiting process, but the weekend visit was the deciding factor.
visiting this weekend.
Graves, a 6-foot-9, 260-pound power forward, ended a long and intensive recruiting process by committing to Kansas. Graves, a Lee's Summit native and current Iowa Western Community College player, picked Kansas rather than other Top 25 schools such as Illinois and Missouri.
"The visit was great," Sharon Graves said. "Midnight Madness was phenomenal. Everything was real hometown. They were real genuine and showed a lot of interest. The players were great. They invited him into their circle and treated you like family. Now we're part of that family."
Niang gave Kansas coaches his decision Sunday night. He said the Jayhawk program would be a perfect fit.
Niang, a 6-9 forward from El Cajon, Calif., however, was not as heralded as Graves during the recruiting season. Niang chose the Jayhawks instead of San Diego State and Connecticut, which entered the picture late, but recruited him hard.
"I liked the family atmosphere," Niang said. They have one of the best programs in the country. I have to go in there and work hard. After talking with the Kansas coaches, they think I can be a pretty good player."
Niang was born in Senegal, and this is only his second year in the United States. He said the visit showed him that Kansas offered him a comfortable environment.
"You have to have someone you can talk to (about something) other than basketball," he said. "I talked to people on campus from Senegal. I asked them how they liked it and they said they liked it a lot. If they like it I think I will, too. I had a chance to meet the Director of International Studies and he's lived in Senegal 10 years. He just moved here. They even have my native language as a course you can study."
With Graves and Niang committing, the other visitor for Late Night, Kevin Bookout, eliminated Kansas from his list of schools. Oklahoma is now considered the front-runner for the 6-9 power forward from Stroud, Okla.
Graves and Niang plan to sign with Kansas during the Nov. 14 to Nov. 21 early signing period.
Kansas now has only one scholarship left to give out, which will likely go to a shooting guard or swinger. The two players still being pursued by Kansas that fit that description are Hassan Adams, a 6-5 guard from Los Angeles, and Andre Igoudala, 6-6 swingman from Springfield, Ill.
Note:
Kansas junior forwards Nick Collison and Drew Gooden were named to the list of 30 preseason candidates for the 2001-02 Naismith College Basketball Player of the Year Award, according to a list released yesterday by the Atlanta Tipoff Club. Other Big 12 Conference players on the list include Missouri's Kareem Rush and Texas' Chris Owens.

Today's Birthday (Oct. 17).
If you're so smart, why aren't you rich? If you are rich, get more. Then, do good things with it. A vision you've had is so far out, it's completely unreasonable. You know which one I'm talking about? Yes, that's the one. Now go get it!
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 6.
If you have a significant other, it's likely that your person will want to go shopping with your money. Have you talked this over? Better make your feelings known. If you don't have a significant other, ask out a salesperson or a stockbroker. Either can help you succeed.

Gemini (May 21-June 21) is an n8.
Oops! Better put a lid on the frivolity for a while.
Time to get back to work. All that stuff you’ve been avoiding has caught up with you, so don’t put it off any longer. Not all of it, anyway.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 7.
If you already have the perfect person in your life, you'll feel like making a new commitment that helps your love grow even stronger. If you haven't identified your perfect mate yet, be alert. He or she could be nearby.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 7.
An adviser who's been holding back encouragement is becoming more supportive. Is it due to a change in you, in him or both? Meanwhile, new considerations surface. More work is required, but you can succeed.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 7.
You're doing well with what you already know,
but you could do even better. Don't give up a
sure thing, but start exploring your options.
What else is there? What do you have to know
to get it? Where do you sign up for the class?
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 9.
Don't schedule a lot of social activities for today or tomorrow unless they're with the folks who sign your paychecks. You're not really schmoozing; it's just an excellent way to shift more of the resources your way. Don't be shy about it.

**Scorpio** (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6.
You're stronger, but you're not quite ready yet.
Continue to sort through your options, discard some and saving others. Don't make any commitments or burn any bridges yet. Stall.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 7.
You may be feeling a twinge of guilt for having so much fun lately. Don't worry. It won't last long. The guilt, that is. Better finish a few chores while they're on your mind, though. You have a big party weekend coming up.

'Huskers multifaceted style leads to victories on field
BIG 12 FOOTBALL
The Associated Press
The third-ranked 'Huskers showed last week they were more than just quarterback Eric Crouch and a few running backs who got the occasional carry. In a 48-7 win against Baylor, four players topped 100 yards — that's a first even at Nebraska, where the backs have been roaming free and piling up rushing titles for decades.
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska coach Frank Solich says it's nice to be versatile.
Solich doesn't expect it to happen again Saturday night against Texas Tech, unless of course the Red Raiders stop the run as ineffectively as Baylor.
"We're going to do whatever it takes to put us in position to win football games. That could
mean being quarterback oriented in our offense. That could mean being I-back oriented." Solich said yesterday. "There's a lot of combinations that we can put forth."
Last week was a little bit of everything. I-backs Thunder Collins with 165 yards and Dahrran Diedrick with 137, Crouch with 132 and fullback Judd Davies with 119 all broke 100 yards.
Crouch was just 4-of-9 passing, but who needs to throw the ball when you're rushing for 641 yards?
"The good thing about the offense is, I think we are versatile enough that hopefully we are going to find something that's going to help us get some points," Solich said. "I have an idea where the focus might be, but that doesn't necessarily
guarantee how it's going to play out. We're going to line up and see what they're giving us."
The second half of the season opened last week at Baylor. Next up is Texas Tech on Saturday, followed by a showdown with No.2 Oklahoma on Oct. 27 in Lincoln.
Solich insisted nobody was looking ahead to the Sooners, who knocked the Huskers from No.1 for good last season with a 31-14 win at Oklahoma.
Although Auburn's upset of Florida last week pushed Nebraska into better position for a national title run, it's way too early to think about it, Solich said.
Nebraska still has five games to go and a possible sixth if they qualify for the Big 12 championship game Dec. 1.

a 9-over par 81 and finished tied for 31 st.
Also competing for Kansas were juniors Tiffany Kruggel and Jill MacDonald, along with sophomore Jennifer Bawanan.
Kruggel carried a dejected look on her face after suffering through her worst tournament round of the year. She shot a 16-over-par 88 and finished in a tie for 77th place. MacDonald also experienced one of her worst rounds of the fall season with a 13-over-par 85, good enough for a 56th-place tie with Bawanan.
Bawanan played in front of her parents, who traveled from
Modesto, Calif., to see her play.
Competing individually, not contributing to the team's score, were Kansas freshmen Lauren Phlegar and Meredith Winkelmann. Phlegar, Lawrence freshman, and Winkelmann, St. Louis freshman, each recorded a 15-over-par 87.
The missed opportunity to defend their home course wasn't lost on the Jayhawks after the completion of the round.
"With 54 holes, you have three opportunities to shoot good rounds, but everybody had to do the same thing and play under the same conditions." Rose said.
Those conditions wreaked haveon on the 16 other teams
competing in the tournament, although the tournament title was hotly contested throughout the entire 18 holes.
Oklahoma came away with the team championship after shooting a combined 306 and holding off second-place Iowa State, which shot a 309.
Kansas won't get another chance to erase its memories of yesterday's round until next year. The tournament marked the end of the Jayhawks' fall schedule, and Kansas doesn't return to action until Feb. 18-19 at the Islander Invitational in Corpus Christi, Texas.

NFL burns baseball in ratings
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Even the worst kind of NFL game outdrew a key baseball playoff game in head-to-head competition Monday night.
ABC's telecast of two winless teams, in which the Dallas Cowboys beat the Washington Redskins 9-7 in a sloppy, often dull game, was watched by more people than the decisive fifth game of the American League playoffs between the Yankees and Athletics.
Although its 9.9 national rating was well below the season's average for prime-time NFL telecasts, ABC beat Fox's 8.4 for baseball. ABC is averaging an 11.4 nationally for "Monday Night Football."
The NFL game got a 16 share, as opposed to baseball's 13 share.
"It's OK, because Washington and Dallas are two teams in the NFC and are Fox teams," network spokesman Dan Bell said. "We are focused on a 6.4 average and 11 share in prime time for our baseball."
Fox's postseason baseball ratings are 25 percent higher than a year ago for five primetime telecasts. Four of those games involved the Yankees, and the fifth was the deciding game of the National League series between Arizona and St. Louis.
and 44 share, while the two 0-4 teams got a 26.3 and 42 in Washington.
In Dallas, the Redskins-Cowboys game drew a 31.4 rating
The New York rating for the NFC East division was a 3.3. Of course, most New York sports fans were watching the Yankees beat the Athletics 5-3 to finish off a comeback from a 2-0 deficit in their series. In New York, the baseball game drew a 23.1 rating and 33 share.
The rating is the percentage of all homes with TVs, whether or not they are in use. Each rating point represents a little more than 1 million households. Share is the percentage of homes with TVs in use tuned to a program.
NFL Chiefs will stick with plan despite its ongoing woes
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Although their passing game is stuck in the mud, the Kansas City Chiefs will not abandon their run-pass approach, coach Dick Vermeil said yesterday.
"We'll stay with the blend concept," Vermell said. "We know we can throw the ball and execute it better than we did. Some of the problems we brought on ourselves and we can correct the problems we brought on ourselves."
After its 20-17 loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday when Trent Green went 16-of-33 for just 127 yards, the Chiefs (1-4) are averaging less than 220 yards passing. In four losses, Green has thrown eight interceptions and one touchdown pass.
But the biggest problem has been a wide receiver corps plagued by injury and inexperience that's been unable to grasp firmly the intricate passing scheme Vermeil brought from St. Louis
When the Chiefs went to the running game in the fourth quarter against the Steelers, Priest Holmes was able to score the first two touchdowns in two games and pump his rushing total to 150 yards.
"Our approach has been to try to get after them early with the passing game and blend the run in," Vermeil said. "But as inefficient as we were (passing), you're not on the field often enough to get the run blended. In that fourth quarter we were not throwing the ball real well. We went to a package we had prepared specifically for Pittsburgh and it was very effective. So we just stayed with that."
Jets player charged with possession of assault rifle
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Damien Robinson of the New York Jets was charged with possession of an assault rifle found in his car as he entered Giants Stadium.
The arrest took place several hours before the Jets beat the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Robinson, a free safety, played in the game and was arraigned afterward.
Robinson could face up to five years in prison if convicted. He was released Sunday night on $7,500 bail, and the matter will be turned over to the prosecutor.
It was not clear why Robinson was carrying the assault weapon and ammunition in his sport utility vehicle.
Jets spokesman Frank Ramos said yesterday the team would "let legal action take its course."
The players were off Monday and yesterday, and Robinson was unavailable for comment.
The weapon was found as troopers and officers were searching vehicles driven by players, team and game officials, and the media.
TRACK AND FIELD World champion runner gets stripped of medal
INDIANAPOLIS — Inger Miller, a former world champion at 200 meters, tested positive for caffeine during the 1999 world indoor championships and will be stripped of her bronze medal.
The failed drug test for high levels of caffeine had not been disclosed previously by USA Track & Field. USATF said it upheld a February ruling of its appeals board.
The 29-year-old American finished third in the 60-meter race at the 1999 world indoors in Japan. She won the 200 in Spain, later that year.

Texas A&M is led by senior outside hitter Erin Lechler, who averages a team-best 3.78 kills per game. As a team, A&M has posted a .245 hitting percentage so far this season. The Aggies lead the Big 12 with 15.89 assists per game and 17.87 digs per game.

The Kansas volleyball team kicks off a three-game home stand at 7 tonight with a match against the Texas A&M Aggies. Kansas has never defeated the Aggies. The Aggies swept the Jayhawks in their last six matches dating back to 1997. Texas A&M is ranked No. 17 by the American Volleyball Coaches Association.
"They're very steady and they're very balanced," coach Ray Bechard said. "It's hard to create a tendency list like you'd like to for each team. They really spread the ball around and come at all angles. I think the rally game is
Kansas, 12-7, and 2-6 in the Big 12 Conference, comes into the match having won its last contest against North Carolina State on Saturday. Meanwhile, Texas A&M, 12-3, 5-2, lost Sunday at home to No. 2 Nebraska. All three of A&M's losses have come at home.

"They have five seniors, and I think that they'll understand the importance of tomorrow's match and will be able to bounce back."
Junior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft recorded her 100th career service ace in the game against North Carolina State. Kraft needs six more aces to move into Kansas' all-time top-10 list in that category. She had two at home against the Aggies last year.
Senior setter Molly LaMere said she thought the trip to North Carolina was good for the team.
"It's always nice to have that break and that bye weekend in your conference season," LaMere

Sailing club ready to drift through season
By Kevin Flaherty
Kansan sportswriter
The University of Kansas Sailing Club has hoisted sail on a new season of racing. The sailing club is preparing to compete in New Orleans in a season that has already included stops in Dallas, Houston and Waco, Texas.
stops in Dallas, Houston and Miami. The team is suffering from a loss of talent because some members graduated. But, Chris Laborde, the club's captain, said the club was looking to become a force in the near future.
The University of Kansas Sailing Club hopes to produce three two-man racing teams, such as the crew above, this season. The club's next race is Saturday, Oct.27.
"This is a rebuilding season for us. We lost a lot of talent from last year," Laborde said. "This year we gained Rusty Morgan, a raw talent we're looking to develop this semester, and hopefully that will make us into a power for next semester."
Laborde said the club hoped to train three racing teams. Racing teams consist of two people per boat, a skipper and a "crew." The club members practice with three boats, a Lazer (a 14-foot, one-man boat), a 420 (a 14-foot, two-man boat), and a J22 (a 22-foot, three-man boat).
Labored said many skills were necessary to be a good sailor.
"It uses almost everything you have, a mix of athleticism, intelligence and patience." Laborde said. "You have to be quick of mind and have the reflexes and reaction speed to keep your boat from crashing."
keep your boat on board
Laborde said he would also like to teach a handful of new members to sail without assistance next semester.
Nick Linderer, Lenexa sophomore, said he enjoyed learning how to sail.
enjoyed learning "I've been around motorboats a lot," Linderer said. "I like the peace and quiet after the motorboats. It's such a precise sport, more like an art than something purely barbaric."
Laborde said he liked the escape that sailing offered from the rest of the world.
"Sailing involves so much of a person, he can't think about what's going on in his life," Laborde said.
The club's next race is Saturday, Oct. 27.

Tennis player leads by example

Kansas tennis player Cheryl Mallaiah, North Longwood, Fla., senior, stretches before practice. Mallaiah, one of two seniors on the team, won a three-hour singles match on Sept. 30.
By Jason Hwang
Kansan sportswriter
Three hours does not seem like a long time to some, but it was an eternity for Cheryl Mallaiah.
Mallaiah, a senior on the Kansas tennis team, finished the Hurricane Invitational in Tulsa, Okla., the last weekend of September with a 3-1 singles record and a 2-1 doubles record. Her final singles match took three hours and she won in three sets. Unfortunately, she felt the effects of fatigue the following weekend at the Indiana Invitational, where she dropped her first two singles matches.
"I was a bit tired, but they were good players," Mallaiah said. "Even though they were long matches, I thought I still played well."
Coach Kilmeny Watterman said Malaiah was leading by example, which helped the team on the court.
"This season she is just coming into the role as a leader, not just as a senior," Waterman said. "In fall tournaments she's fought very hard and won a lot of matches and respect from the team. She's a very quality person as well. She'll do anything for anyone."
one.
This is the first tennis season the North Longwood, Fla., native has not played with her sister, Lisa. Although Lisa was a three-year letter winner for the team, she took a leave from the team this year to concentrate on academics. The Mallaiah sisters had paired up on doubles to earn an 8-3 record for two years straight.
Malliaiah said she missed her sister on the team.
"She's always supportive and a big part of the team. She's always made me laugh. She's someone to talk to at tournaments," Mallaiah said.
Meanwhile, Lisa Malliaiah said she commended her sister for being a determined player who strived to win and be a good sport.

New receivers bolster Aggies offensive play
The Associated Press
COLLEGE STATION, Texas Prior to this season, neither Jamaar Taylor or Terrence Murphy had ever caught a pass in a college game.
They've since become two effective targets in the Aggies offense for Texas A&M quarterback Mark Farris.
"I said this summer that I didn't know who it would be, but I felt two of those young receivers would help us this year," coach R.C. Slocum said.
But even Slocum couldn't have expected the results produced by Murphy and Taylor.
Murphy was a quarterback at Chapel Hill High School in Tyler. He converted to wide receiver for the Aggies and caught freshman records of 11 catches for 146 yards and a touchdown in last week's 31-21 loss to Colorado.
"As many plays as he makes that are positive, he makes one that is negative," offensive coordinator Dino Babers said. "But the one thing you can say about Terrence Murphy is he doesn't make the same mistake twice."
Taylor, sophomore, transferred from Notre Dame after his freshman year. He caught nine passes for 146 yards and two touchdowns against the Buffaloes.
Taylor leads the Aggies with 27 catches for 403 yards and three touchdowns, while Murphy is third on the team with 18 catches for 312 yards and two touchdowns. Murphy averages 17.3 yards per catch.
The newcomers got their chances in part because of injuries. Senior Bethel Johnson was lost for the season after having his spleen removed. Greg Porter has been sidelined since the Baylor game with a broken foot.
Taylor has stepped into a key receiving role vacated by Robert Ferguson, who is now with the Green Bay Packers.
"Jamaa isn't as big as Robert but they are both very physical. He (Jamaa) is probably the best blocking wide receiver in the conference," Farris said.

"I think a lot of people wanted to see this going into the postseason." Jeter said westerday.
"Seattle, obviously, has had a great season, the best record in the history of the American League," the Yankees' star shortstop said. "And now, we stand in their way of winning a championship. And they stand in our way of winning another one."
"I guess that's the way it was meant to be." Mariners manager Lou Piniella said.
The Seattle Mariners, the team that could not lose, against the New York Yankees, the team that wouldn't be beaten.

World Series crowns since Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle helped the Bronx Bombers do it a half-century ago
"If you're going to go to the World Series, you might as well go through New
Yankees
York," said Seattle reliever Jeff Nelson, who spent the previous five seasons with the Yankees.
"At least someone is going to be in the World Series for the fourth year in a row — either them or me," Nelson said.
"Of course, if we were not playing the Yankees, I'd probably want the Yankees to win." Seattle DH Edgar Martinez said. "But we're playing the Yankees, and we want to win."
Jeter, who hit.444 against Oakland and made two sensational plays in the field, is sure that others would like to see the Yankees lose, too.
The Mariners tied a major league record by winning 116
games and broke New York's AL. mark of 114 in 1998.
"I guess when you think about it, we'd like to have kept that record," Yankees pitcher Andy Pettitte said.
Pettittie will start the opener in the best-of-seven series tomorrow against Aaron Sele at Safeco Field.
"I think now when you see New York has come together, I think that the attitude or the impression that people have of New York has changed a little bit, but I don't think that the attitude toward the Yankees is going to change," he said. "I think you either love us or hate us."
Both teams are coming off stirring comebacks in the first round of the playoffs.
the Yankees became the first club ever to win a best-of-five series after losing the first two games at home.
New York rallied with three straight, startling victories over Oakland — capped by the tender scene late Monday night of manager Joe Torre patting Mayor Rudolph Giuliani's face as they walked off the field arm in arm.
It was a win that most everyone in a shaken city could savor, a triumph that resonated well beyond a place torn apart by terrorist attacks.
"It'll be a great series," Moyer said. "Is it what people have been waiting for? Well, you never know."
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman was more certain.
"It's the matchup that everybody wanted," he said.
A calm Johnson leads Diamondbacks to victory
The Associated Press
PHOENIX — With icy calm and magnificent heat, Randy Johnson buried his reputation as a postseason flop.
season hop. In a matchup of pitchers who together have seven Cy Young Awards and 457 victories, Johnson threw a three-hit masterpiece as the Arizona Diamondbacks beat the Atlanta Braves 2-0 yesterday in Game 1 of the National League championship.

Johnson struck out 11 and walked one, snapping his major league record seven-game losing streak in the postseason.

drive off the glove of a leaping Matt Williams at third base with two outs in the first inning.
After that, Johnson retired 20 in a row before walking Bernard Gilkey on four pitches with one out in the eighth.
Johnson was one out away from pitching the eighth one-hitter in postseason history when Julio Franco and Jones singled and put runners at first and third — Atlanta's first runner to get into scoring position all game.
Johnson recovered and struck out Brian Jordan to end it.
Maddux was no slouch. He allowed just two runs and six hits in seven innings, but his effort was lost in the 6-foot-10 Johnson's shadow.

chewing calm except for a few bursts of emotions.
tions. He had two eight-pitch innings and one seven-pitch innings, far out of character for a hurler whose pitch count normally soars above 100 long before the ninth inning.
Atlanta's closest calls in the first eight innings were a pair of long outs to right field by leadoff hitter Marcus Giles. Sanders caught the first just in front of the fence to lead off the game and the second in front of the yellow home run line atop the fence, ending the sixth.

Arizona gave Johnson a rare early lead. Counsell singled with one out in the first inning, then Gonzalez reached safely when his grounder scooted under the glove of the second baseman Giles for an error.
Sanders, 7-for-17 in the postseason, lined a single up the middle, scoring Counsell and making it 1-0. The scorekeeper ruled it was an earned run.
More than the legend will survive.

Hamilton queenly in TV role
The Associated Press
LONDON — Victoria Hamilton jokes that she seems to have been in a corset for the last seven years, playing in period pieces.
But she isn't giving up the garment just yet.
This Victoria is playing another in Victoria and Albert, airing 9 p.m. EDT Sunday and Tuesday (Oct. 21 and 23) on A&E.
And her similarities to the British queen who reigned from 1837 to 1901 don't end with the name.
"Victoria was the height I was," the 5-foot-4 Hamilton says. And her measurements were identical, "down to the size of my head and my wrist," Hamilton discovered during costume fittings at Kensington Palace.
"She did have this thing of being a very small woman with an explosive personality," she adds, offering a description that fits herself as well.
Hamilton, 30, plays the young queen opposite Jonathan Firth as her German cousin, and eventual husband, Prince Albert. The starry supporting cast includes Peter Ustinov as William IV, the aling king whom Victoria succeeds, and Nigel Hawthorne as Lord Melbourne, Victoria's first prime minister (and, the program suggests, surrogate father figure). Jonathan Pryce, David Suchet, Penelope Wilton and Diana Rigg fill out an impressive lineup.
Judi Dench began her seemingly annual visits to the Academy Awards in 1998 playing the widowed Victoria in "Mrs. Brown." Hamilton, however, thinks this image of Victoria is constricted.
"Everyone in this country and abroad, when they think of Queen Victoria, has a particular image of this rather stout, portly, morally strict lady in a black dress, which is what she became after Albert died," Hamilton says.
"Nobody knew who she was when she was 18, or in her 20s." That Victoria "loved parties and balls and theater and opera and new dresses; she was reveling in all that because it was something she'd never had," having grown up in a forbidding environment that, Hamilton says, "was tantamount to abuse."
Playmates were limited to one female friend for an hour a week.
When Albert came along, says Hamilton, "people automatically assume they fell desperately in love, though if you read the diaries and books, you realize that actually wasn't the case. It wasn't until the years passed that they both fell in love with each other; it took them awhile to get there. Like any relationship, a marriage does take work."

Equal: Players questionable for Saturday

were all banged up last weekend against the No.2 ranked Oklahoma Sooners.
Allen said that each player was questionable for Saturday's border war. But senior wide receiver Termaire Fulton, who left yesterday's practice with a large bag of ice planted on his right shoulder, said that he would be ready to play.
that he wore "Lifting it above my head is the hardest part," Fulton said of his right arm. "But I have to play Saturday, it's my last year year, and it's against Missouri."
Fulton's injury leaves Jayhawks senior Roger Ross as the lone healthy starting wide receiver from the trio that lined up in Kansas' first game on Sept. 1 against Southwest Missouri State. Co-captain Harrison Hill has been out for six weeks with a broken scapula in his shoulder. But Ross said he was confident in himself and the emergence of junior Bryon Gasaway, who snagged a career-best five catches against Oklahoma.
against Oklahoma.
"I expect us to win and to dominate," Ross said. "I was so proud of Byron stepping up and making big plays like he could. We got to keep our offense together now."
Missouri's defense is susceptible to the run, yielding 196.6 yards rushing per game. Running backs Joe Alls of Bowling Green, Tatum Bell of Oklahoma State, Ennis Haywood of Iowa State and quarterback Eric Crouch of Nebraska have each eclipsed the 100-yard mark against the Tigers' defense.
Though hobbled by an ankle sprain, Duncan said he hoped to be next in the succession of running backs who have troubled the Tiger defense this season.
"It's a critical point in our season," Duncan said. "We're 2.1 need to be out there."
The lead in the two teams' series will be on the line on Saturday. In their 109 meetings, Kansas and Missouri have each won 50 times. The other nine contests resulted in ties.
"He's one of the best in the Big 12, but I like going up against the best," said Kansas senior cornerback Andrew Davison.
"We're 2-3. I need to be out there.
Farmer has thrown 115 times for 558 yards this season. He has fired five touchdown passes and one interception. His favorite target has been 6-foot-5 Justin Gage, who has 34 catches for 370 yards. Tigers senior tight end Dwayne Blakely is the team's second leading receiver, but he has 18 fewer catches and 212 fewer yards than Gage.

KU student in hospital after fall off ledge
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
A 19-year-old KU student fell off a McCollum Hall fourth-floor window ledge Friday morning, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
Saad Saifeddine, 10th floor McCollum resident, was visiting friends on the fourth floor when he went out on the window ledge to smoke a cigarette. As of yesterday, he was in fair condition at the University of Kansas Medical Center, hospital officials said.
A student housing regulation states that students can smoke in their rooms in McCollum only if their roommates approve.
Saifeddine, who told police he had been drinking earlier that night, slipped off the ledge and fell onto the first-floor concrete balcony, Bailey said. Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said the ledge Saifeddine fell from was about two feet wide.
"You cannot always protect every individual from their own judgment and their own mistakes."

"The screens are designed for easy removal for rescue and to keep bugs out," he said. "They are not intended to keep people in."
However, Stoner said, "It is very difficult to get out a window like that." He said students would have to climb on a chair to be high enough, and they'd have to turn sideways to squeeze through the window.

"We do our best to make things as safe as possible," Stoner said. "The building is safe. The behavior is not safe."
He said that alcohol affected judgment and muscle coordination and that was the issue in Saifeddine's fall — not building design or safety.

Charley Oswald, a 1951 KU economics graduate, talks about his pride for the University at the Endowment Center. On Friday, Oswald donated $10 million to the University, the largest contribution ever to the Kansas University Endowment Association by an individual.
Economics alumnus donates $10million
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
By simply being polite, Chancellor Robert Hemenway inspired one alumnus to give a record-setting donation to the University of Kansas last Friday.
Charley Oswald, a 1951 KU economics graduate, planned to donate $8 million to the University, but a phone call from Hemenway expressing his thanks compelled Oswald to add another million. Hemenway called again, and Oswald said he felt so honored that during the conversation, he decided to increase his contribution another million for a total of $10 million.
"And for God's sake, don't call back," Oswald told Hemenay.
Oswald's $10 million donation is the largest single outright contribution to the Kansas University Endowment Association by an individual.
Forrest Hoglund, chairman of the Endowment's KU First fund-raising campaign, said that the donation totaled $14 million, including state matching funds.
The $10 million gift and state matching funds will count toward the $500 million goal of the KU First fund-raising campaign. As of Friday, the Endowment campaign has raised $297 million.
Six million dollars of Oswald's donation will go to the department of economics, $1 million to the School of Business, and the remaining $3 million into unrestricted University support accounts.
"The impact of this gift is already making it felt." Hemenway said.
One of two economics professorships financed by the donation has already been occupied. William Barnett from Washington University in St. Louis will join the faculty next fall as the Oswald Distinguished Chair of Macroeconomics.
of Macroeconomics Joseph Sicillian, chairman of the economics department, said Oswald's gift was inspirational.
Oswald's gift web includes "For our faculty members, it is such a morale boost to have their program recognized by a gift of this caliber," Sicilian said in a press release. "For our students, this gift will mean scholarships, fellowships and instruction from some of the foremost economics scholars in the world."

New sorority to emphasize multicultural awareness
Diversity group aims to bring KU cultures together
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
The prospect of having an effect and being a part of a diverse group made Cindy Terrazas want to help create a multicultural sorority at the University of Kansas.
turial solving the Terrazas, Leoit junior, and six other women are members of a Mu Sigma Upsilon interest group at the University. Terrazas said it should become a chapter next spring.
The name of the KU interest group is called T.I.A.R.A, which stands for togetherness, independence, achievement, respect and academics.

Terrazas said she heard about the soror-
Terrazas said she is from her friend Sarah Zaragoza, Leawood junior.
"When I got to here, I never considered joining a sorority." Terrazas said. "When this sorority came along, I felt I was ready to handle this."
Zaragoza said she liked the multicultural aspect of the sorority, which she said she thought was important at KU.
"When this sorority came along I felt I was ready to handle this." Cindy Terrazas Leoti junior
"I had been around different cultures all my life." Zaragoza said. "That's how I was raised. People need to learn about other cultures, not just stick to one."
Zaragoza said a lot of diversity existed within the interest group members. She said she had considered joining the historically Latina sorority, Sigma Lambda Gamma, but decided she wanted to create a multicultural one.
"It was attractive because I felt like I could establish something at the University it didn't have yet," Zaragoza said.
Jasmin Smith, Kansas City. Mo., junior, said the multicultural focus of the sorority appealed to her, too.
"I didn't see a sorority on campus that had diversity as its focus," Smith said. "This includes everyone. This could bring something I bring to a sorority and make the lines not as defined between cultures."
Terrazas said the group sponsored voter registration drives for Hispanic Heritage Month and was working with South Junior High students in Lawrence. She said they were planning events for Black History Month in February and Women's History Month in March.

Kappa Sigma fraternity, 1045 Emery Road, changes the look of its letters weekly. The current paint scheme reflects the colors and symbols of the fraternity house.
Fraternity splashes sign with color
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
Wednesday afternoons are routine for members of Kappa Sigma fraternity. Each week, some of the fraternity members gear up with paintbrushes, paint and a design.
Clint Jones, Wathena freshman, said the painting usually lasted about two hours, but sometimes it lasted a little longer, depending on what the designs were.
The members make their way to the fraternity letters on the lawn in front of the house,1045 Emery Road, and add another layer of paint.
Jones said that the letters had been painted over about 15 times this year and

that he was pleased and took pride in how the letters looked this year.
Clubine said every year members of the house attempted to remove layers of paint from the letters, which have accumulated on the sign since the 1930s. Sometimes people have tried to burn the paint off.
"We've never got down to the actual letters." Clubine said.

Student senate committees set sum for Chinese group
The Student Senate Multicultural Affairs and Finance committees passed a bill allocating money to the Chinese Student Scholar Friendship Association last Wednesday. It will go to full Senate for a final vote this week.
However, the amount was cut from $1,296 to $813, after the Finance Committee decided to cut out the Chinese Traditional Sports Competition involved with the event.
Branden Bell, holdover senator, said that the past history of the group suggested that money for the sports competition usually didn't get used for the event.
"We have to have some way to know that they are going to use the money," Bell said.

One officer was upgraded to serious condition from critical late Saturday at Truman Medical Center with a gunshot wound to his
leg, a nursing supervisor said. The other officer was in serious condition at the University of Kansas Medical Center, a hospital representative said.
The suspect was shot in the ankle and remained at St. Luke's Hospital early yesterday, a representative there said. It was not immediately clear how the suspect, whom Young would not identify pending criminal charges, was shot.

Crop duster sprays two boats
The Associated Press
JACKSON, Miss. — Emergency management officials took samples from a Mississippi River tugboat and a pleasure craft after a lowflying crop duster sprayed the boats with an unknown substance.
The crop duster, flying north, passed over the tugboat near Rosedale, Miss., around 3 p.m. Friday, spraying the substance, said Kent Buckley, director of the Bolivar County Emergency Management Agency.
It appeared the plane released the spray on purpose, he said, because it then circled around to spray the pleasure boat.

Matthew Tomek, a representative for the Bolivar County EMA, said officials thought the spraying was "just a scare."

"Apparently he was doing something he shouldn't have been doing," Buckley said.
"And with the things that have been going on lately, it really wasn't funny."
Officials do not know the identity of the plane and are looking for witnesses who may have seen an identifying tail number, Buckley said.
The tug boat was pushing 17 barges. They are grounded and quarantined, Bissell said.

Palestinians killed as Israeli tanks move to West Bank
JERUSALEM — Israeli tanks moved deeper into the West Bank yesterday, tightening their grip on biblical Bethlehem and five other towns in the widest operation against the Palestinians in years.
Three Palestinians were killed yester day.
The three-day-old assault, retaliation for the assassination of an Israeli Cabinet minister by a radical PLO faction, drew harsh international criticism and set off disagreements within Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's coalition government.
After Shimon in New York, Foreign Minister Shimon Peres told U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan yesterday that Israel does not intend to stay in the areas it entered, according to a representative for Israel's U.N. Mission.
"We do not want to overthrow the Palestinian Authority," the representative quoted Peres as saying.
Some members of the moderate Labor Party threatened to bolt the coalition — a move that could badly hobble the government — if the escalation continued.

Dean to retire, will stay as teacher
By Eve Lamborn Kansan staff writer
Carl E. Locke Jr., dean of engineering, announced Oct. 15 that he would retire from his position as dean at the end of this academic year. He will remain at the University of Kansas as a faculty member, teaching chemical and petroleum engineering.
Provest David Shulenburger said he was in the process of forming a search committee. He said he hoped to have a new dean appointed by the start of the next academic year.
Shutenburger said he had enjoyed working with Locke, and he was glad Locke chose to stay on as a faculty member—because of his expertise and experience.
Locke cited his age (almost 66), his 45 years of marriage, his eight grandchildren and his 16 years as dean as reasons why it was time for him to step down.
"When I became dean, there was no goal of how long I would stay." he said.
Locke said he was proud of the substantial increase in the school's endowment. He coordinated private fund-raising efforts for the construction of the Spahr Engineering Library and the
upcoming construction of a Learned Hall expansion. Almost one-third of the 1,600 undergraduate students in the School of Engineering have some type of scholarship, he said.
Locke said he was also proud of the success of the school's alumni.
"I'm proud to be associated with an institution that had those people come here," he said
Locke said that when he came to the University, he started a recognition ceremony at the end of each semester. In the ceremony, graduating students, excellent students and outstanding faculty receive awards.
"Those are the times I've enjoyed the most, seeing the students and parents and being proud of them in finishing their degrees," he said.
Locke's 16 years as dean is the school's second-longest tenure at that position. Only Frank O. Marvin, who served 20 years as the school's first dean, stayed longer.
During his years at the University, Locke has hired 59 of the school's 92 faculty members. He also served as the director for the KU Center for Research Inc. from 1986 to 1997.

of Engineering.
"It was a touching moment," he said. "The faculty very much recognize what he's done."
Sorem said the faculty meeting at which Locke announced his decision to step down was difficult.
Scott Kowalchuk, engineering student council vice-president, has worked with Locke through the student council. He said at first he was surprised at the dean's decision, especially because construction on the new engineering building was set to begin soon.
"I can understand his desire to go back to teaching, because that's what his first love was," the Prairie Village senior said. "He has to do what's best for him."
Locke said his resignation would not change any of the plans for construction on the new building.
"My goal is to have construction started while I'm still dean." Locke said. "But it will be finished for some other dean, and that's OK."

THE EDITOR
HONORABLE ATHLETES
Dear editor.
Last week, a tragic event happened that almost no one nationwide heard about. At Alcorn State University, four unnamed people were "joyriding" around campus when they came across two girls walking. One of the joyriders threw a bottle at one of the girls and said something rude. That's when a freshman football player named Jekelcy Lee Johnson stepped in. He defended the girl and was subsequently fatally shot.
Let's hope that A.D. Bohl gets rid of a classless coach like Terry Allen and brings in somebody who will bring us players like JeKelcy Lee Johnson. He's a hero on par with all the people in New York. It's just too bad nobody heard about his deed.
That is the kind of football player KU needs. Instead, we have a starting running back and quarterback who plead not guilty to a crime everyone knows they committed. Instead of throwing them off the team, like Coach Williams would have if it were a basketball team, Coach Allen keeps playing them.

Campus machines gang up on an unsuspecting student
My friends and those who know me — two distinct groups, notice — would be a bit surprised to hear me claim to hate machines. After all, I go into withdrawal if I don't have access to my email. I love the convenience of ATMs. And gizmos and gadgets have always been special weaknesses of mine. But of late I've been carrying on a hate affair with a few machines right here on Mount Oread, and it's time to tell all.
As a GTA, I spend part of my life in a snug niche in the bowels of Wescoe Hall. Near my hermit's cell live several mechanized beings (I'm convinced they're sentient), namely, one "Cash-to-Card" machine, one snack machine, one Coke can machine and four Coke bottle machines. They have all flirted with my affections, and they've formed a cabal to frustrate my overtures. They hate me; I know they do.
It started with that petite Cash-to-Card. Her display invited me to insert my KU card and add money to its gold chip. For a while she cooperated nicely. But then she coldly shunned me ("error," she called it) and would not help me. I returned day after day, hoping her coyness would pass. Finally, I called the KU Card Center. From there a pleasant voice expressed surprise that the machine was toying with me so and pledged to look into it.

Imagine my joy the next day when the machine was once again kindly inviting me to make use of her! Alack and alas, my joy was doomed. I inserted

my card. She told me the correct total on the chip. She told me to insert a bill. And then she refused to accept any money. How cruel! How heartless! I was crushed.
First to strike out at me was the snack machine. Proudly displayed on her front is a label promising me a discount of 10 percent for using my KU card. But where to insert the card? There's no card reader!
The Coke can machine soon began to attack me, too. The bill feeder invites me to insert money. But every dollar bill I insert is immediately spit back at me.
All this is bad enough. But the machines have managed to be ever meaner to li'l ol' me. I'm a student which means I'm poor. I pinch my pen nies so hard that occasionally Mr. Lin coln bites my thumb. So I was under
standably thrilled to learn that I would receive a 15-percent discount on a bottle of Coke if I used my KU card to make the purchase.
So I felt it best to pour my soul out on paper. Perhaps others are suffering from similar experiences. Keep trying, and someday you'll find that one special machine and live happily ever after. Either that or take up machine-monasticism and forget your sorrows. The latter seems, somehow, more inviting.
Perhaps now you see the machines' plan. If Cash-to-Card refused me her services, then I could not use my KU card, and I could not get a discount. So I say, "All right, I'll just buy a can, since it's cheaper." But the can machine will not accept my dollar bill. So I'm forced to offer my dollar bill to the bottle machine and forgo the discount.
Some will object to this diatribe. They'll ask, "Why didn't you simply call the proper University office to solve the problem?" Answer: Because I have experience dealing with proper University offices. Had I been able to figure out which office was proper (there's no Office of Vending Machine Problems, you know), I'm quite sure that I'd have been referred to, say, the pope, or the Taliban, or the Coca-Cola company — all of which are equally aloof and uninterested in helping disgruntled "customers."

Bowling has power to change a life
A wise man once said that a man who doesn't bowl, is not a man at all.
Well, this columnist couldn't agree more. Throughout my life I've bowled every once in a while for recreation, but not until did I take it as a class here at KU did I enjoy the true beauty of the sport.
MATTHEW J. MCDONALD
Although there probably aren't a lot of therapists that recommend it, bowling can be extremely stress-relieving. First of all, you're doing something physical, which is always a good way to get rid of stress.
Imagine this — every Tuesday and Thursday you wake up, get dressed and make your way over to Royal Crest Lanes. Once there you take in the sight of newly greased lanes, fine Velcro shoes and a plethora of shiny bowling balls just waiting for you to send them on a trip to Pintown. After your physical yet fulfilling game, you can decide whether you want to grab a burger at the grill or try your luck with the weight machine. Friends, for me this is no dream. This is my reality, and in addition to it being horrifically fun, I get college credit for it. It can be your reality too if you enroll in the bowling class that KU offers.
There's nothing better after failing a test than hurling a 14-pound ball at some unsuspecting and non-moving entities. Girlfriend or boyfriend dumps

Commentary
In addition to bowling a couple games every week, you'll be a master of Trivial Pursuit with your massive bowling vocabulary. When your parents ask you how school's going you can tell them that you picked up a lilly. Or tell the attractive person sitting next to you that you got a Brooklyn today. They may not know what you're talking about, but nevertheless it sounds impressive. And after they take the class too, they'll be even more impressed.
you? Tell them about your 200 game and they'll be crying to get you back.
Yes, there are tests in the class in which you've got to know vocabulary and how to keep score, but it's nothing too bad. You can use what you learn for the rest of your life. In 60 years you may not remember what the medulla does, but your scorekeeping knowledge sure will come in handy at the annual retirement home bowling party. Bowling is a
lifetime sport that any age can participate in. From 8-year-olds to 80-year-olds.
I urge everyone to sign up for the bowling class that this University offers. It's fun, it's a form of exercise (although Billy Blanks doesn't promote it as a full body workout), its stress relieving, and the best part of all is that you even get a little credit for taking It. What more could you ask for? You don't even have to change clothes to do it (except for bowling shoes, which is one of the best parts of the whole experience.)
Ever the fan of Dr. Seuss, I conclude with a poem:
Is your life a tizzy?
Is your life a big mess?
Are you looking for a way to relieve your stress?
Well, I have the answer, the answer for you.
The answer for you, I most certainly do;
Sign up for bowling, sign up today
Hobble-dee wobble-dee, bowling is fun.
And your life will be better in most interesting ways.
Bizzle-dee mizzle-dee, for everyone.

Hepatitis A cases spring up in two Kansas counties
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5A
People visiting those areas should get vaccinations. Watkins officials say
By Matt Norton Kansan staff writer
Officials at Watkins Memorial Health Center are recommending that students visiting Reno and Barton counties during the holidays get vaccinated against hepatitis A.
The 83rd case of the liver disease since November 2000 in Reno county was documented last week in an elementary school student in Hutchinson. Twelve cases of hepatitis A have been reported in Barton County, including an employee at a Perkins restaurant in Great Bend this month.
Myra Strother, chief of staff at Watkins, said the vaccine was recommended for anyone who traveled to or lived in communities that have prolonged outbreaks of hepatitis.
Strother said hepatitis A usually caused vomiting, diarrhea and jaundice. Symptoms appear one month after exposure to the virus, and a person who is infected is contagious from two weeks before to one week after jaundice starts, Strother said.
She said that no medication existed that treated hepatitis A once it started, but once a person recovered from the disease, that person was immune for life.
At Watkins, the vaccine for hepatitis A, which comes in two
Hepatitis A symptoms:
Hepatitis A symptoms:
- vomiting
- diarrhea
- jaundice
Hepatitis A vaccine:
- two shots, usually six months apart
- costs $22 per shot for students
  over 18, $20 for students under 18
Dual hepatitis A and B vaccine:
- three shots
doses, costs $22 per shot,
Strother said.
$45 per shot (only available to students over the age of 19)
Students can also choose to receive the Twinrix vaccine, which has been approved to combat both hepatitis A and B, Strother said. Hepatitis B is spread through contact with the blood and body fluids of an infected persons and can be fatal, she said.
The Twinrix vaccine costs $45 dollars for each of three shots, she said.
Dustin Bauerle, Nickerson junior, said he was at home last summer when an outbreak at a Sonic in Hutchinson created a scare.
He said he went home for a couple days over fall break and would be going back for Thanksgiving. He said he didn't know of anyone who had contracted the disease and wasn't concerned about it.
Bauerle said he probably wouldn't get the vaccine.

Regulation may hurt sand, gravel industry
The Associated Press
WICHITA — Kansas' $125 million sand and gravel industry is warning that a newly passed water use regulation designed to protect groundwater could eventually spell the industry's end.
Still, the regulation's intent is not to drive anybody out of business but rather to protect a "finite" natural resource, Taylor said.
The regulation requires sand and gravel companies whose digs cause groundwater evaporation to buy water rights when they expand or move to a new location.
said.
Moses agreed that groundwater was a valuable resource. But he said evaporation from sand pits accounted for such a small amount of Kansas water use that
Because no rights are available in western Kansas, where the state's largest pits are located, that means operators who exhaust an existing site would simply have to go out of business, said Woody Moses, a representative for the Kansas Aggregate Producers Association.
Lisa Taylor, a representative for the Kansas Department of Agriculture, said sand and gravel operators would "just have to wait" until a water right "became available to purchase."
He said pits could actually help the water table in some arid regions by holding surface runoff that would otherwise be lost.
it had virtually no effect on groundwater.
Moses said Kansas sand and gravel companies supplied material for 95,000 miles of roads in rural Kansas as well as materials for other industries like insulation and glass manufacturing.
He said buying water rights, especially if companies were forced to outbid other industries seeking them, would not be feasible.
"I don't see the state doing without a sand and gravel industry," he said. "I think it'll be up to the Legislature to solve the problem."
"Sand and gravel are not high-value commodities," he said. "What we'll see is operations moving to Oklahoma or Colorado and trucking into Kansas. It'll cost counties and townships more for gravel, and it will move jobs and money out of Kansas."
Moses said the trade group would probably seek help for the issue from state lawmakers.
The regulation also would require sand and gravel companies to obtain an industrial use water permit by Dec. 31, but that would not cause trouble for the industry, Moses said.
Woman lights husband on fire after argument
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Kansas City man has second-degree burns on his face, neck, chest and hands after his wife doused him with gasoline and set him on fire, police said.

Tobacco money may decrease deficits
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Faced with a ballooning budget deficit, Gov. Bob Taft has proposed borrowing $100 million of the state's share of the national tobacco settlement to balance the books.
The Associated Press
part of a $206 billion national settlement in 1998, as budget deficits grow in the face of an economy weakened by the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
His proposal has disappointed anti-smoking advocates who saw Taft as a strong voice for using the money on health-related programs.
Governors and lawmakers around the country have been turning to the tobacco money.
"The tobacco dollars can be used in any way the states see fit," said Lee Dixon, a Washington analyst with the National Conference on State Legislatures. "The case can be made that the states are using the tobacco money to continue current services, and if they did not use tobacco money, they would have to eliminate
The National Conference of State Legislatures released a report in August showing that only 5 percent of tobacco settlement money was being used for smoking prevention. Some states used the settlement money to make up shortfalls in state budgets and fund programs that had nothing to do with smoking.
some health programs."
At least four other states have used the money in the past year to balance their budgets, and more are considering such a move.
Anti-smoking groups are not happy.
"The current budget crunch that a lot of states are facing threats to undermine all of the progress that's been made in funding effective programs to reduce tobacco use among children," said Matthew Myers, president of the Washington-based Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids.
Taft defends his plan as a fiscally responsible approach to a serious budget crisis.
Miami house opened as shrine to Elian
The Associated Press
MIAMI — The small home where Elian Gonzalez lived while at the center of an international custody battle opened yesterday as a shrine to honor him.
Delfin Gonzalez, the boy's great uncle, bought the home November 2000 and converted it into a shrine, free to the public.
"I'm very satisfied," he said. "I'm happy to serve and that people can come and look and go
through memories of when Elian was hgre."
Gonzalez, 67, said some people might not agree with opening the shrine shortly after last month's terrorist attacks or even having a site dedicated to the boy. But he said it filled a need in the community.
For several months following Elian's rescue two miles off Fort Lauderdale on Thanksgiving Day 1999, the home was the scene of
protests against Cuba and in favor of keeping Eilian in Miami.
The home was raided by U.S. Border Patrol agents before dawn on April 22, 2000, and Elian was eventually reunited with his Cuban father. Two months later, they returned to Cuba.
Some visitors were moved to tears.
"To us, this day was almost equivalent to the Twin Towers

Air strikes hit near front line
The Associated Press
QALAI DASHT, Afghanistan U.S. warplanes bombarded Taliban positions yesterday near a front line north of the capital, Kabul, marking what could be the start of a more aggressive campaign on behalf of opposition forces fighting the Islamic regime.
In Kabul, meanwhile, grieving neighbors pulled dust-covered bodies of seven civilians — three women and four children — from the ruins of two homes destroyed yesterday by a U.S. bomb.
In Pakistan, the U.N. refugee agency renewed appeals yesterday for Afghanistan's neighbors to open their borders to the refugees, including up to 15,000 trapped on the "no man's land" near the Pakistani town of Chaman.
The attacks yesterday marked the closest and most intense U.S. strikes so far against Taliban positions defending Kabul from northern alliance forces, which have been stalled for years 12 to 25 miles north of the city.
U. S. jets streaked over the opposition-held Panjishir Valley, and opposition officials told an Associated Press reporter in the area that they appeared to strike Taliban positions about one mile behind the front line.
several eyewitnesses, including journalists and residents, also
reported Taliban positions bombed in the area.
"We are hoping this will be a big help for the future of our forces," said Waisuddin Salik, an opposition representative.
Afghanistan's anti-Taliban forces, an alliance mostly of minority ethnic Uzbeks and Tajiks, had been urging the United States to provide close air support for their forces so they could advance on the capital.
However, the United States and Britain had been reluctant to help the northern alliance seize Kabul until a broad-based government had been formed to take over from the Taliban.
Opposition groups were widely discredited in Afghanistan because of the chaos and infighting that marked their four years in power. Fighting between rival groups now part of the alliance destroyed large sections of Kabul and killed an estimated 50,000 people, most of them civilians.
Since the U.S.-led air campain began Oct. 7, U.S. attacks against Taliban front line positions were mostly limited to strikes near the strategic northern city of Mazar-e-Sharif.
U. S. warplanes resumed attacks yesterday in that area, striking targets in the provinces of Balkh, which includes Mazare-Sharif and Samangan to the

east of the city, according to the Afghan Islamic Press.
Taliban representative Mullah Amir Khan Muttai claimed Taliban forces drove back an opposition attack in the area despite the U.S. air strikes.
Afghan officials also reported more attacks yesterday near the western city of Herat and Kandabar in the south.
In Kabul, U.S. jets struck at midmorning in the Khair Khana section of the city. One bomb crashed into a residential neighborhood, destroying two houses. An Associated Press reporter saw the bodies of seven dead at the scene and later at a city hospital. All were said to be related.
At a nearby hospital, Dr. Izetullah, who like many Afghans uses only one name, wept as he pulled back bloodstained sheets to show the bodies of the four children — all boys, ages 8 to 13. Izetullah said 13 dead had been brought to the hospital.
"This pilot was like he was blind," said neighbor Haziz Ullah. "There are no military bases here — only innocent people."
WARSAW, Poland — Solidarity, the union that Lech Walesa led to victory against communism in Poland 12 years ago, acknowledged the end of an era as a political force yesterday when the leaders of its electoral arm resigned.
The Associated Press
Crushed in elections last month, party members agreed at a national congress to try to regroup next year under a new banner — one that might not even include the word "Solidarity."
"Now we have to start from the very bottom, elect new party
Polish party leaders end an era
delegates, so that they can come here and decide about a new image for our party," said Jerzy Buzek, Poland's outgoing prime minister.
Buzek quit at yesterday's congress as head of Solidarity Electoral Action Social Movement, the party that served as the political arm of the Solidarity trade union.
Solidarity's crash was nearly as overwhelming as its 1989 triumph against the hated Communists.
In national elections Sept. 23, it failed to retain a single seat in the Sejm, parliament's 460-member lower house.
Even more humiliating, voters handed the nation's political power to a party of former communists, the Democratic Left Alliance, which formally took office Friday.
"An era when the Social Movement was the political arm of the trade union has ended," said Solidarity union leader Marian Mrzaklewski.
Solidarity withdrew from day-to-day politics early this year and will carefully consider whether to support any parties in the future,he said.
Russian Soyuz spacecraft headed to International Space Station
The Associated Press
BAIKONUR, Kazakstan - A Russian-French crew blasted off yesterday for the International Space Station.
The three-person crew took off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome aboard a Russian Soyuz spacecraft at 12:59 p.m. Moscow time.
minutes later as it successfully reached orbit, a representative at Russia's mission control near Moscow said.
The Soyuz TM-33 separated from its booster rocket nine
The spacecraft's crew will spend eight days on the space station conducting experiments, and are scheduled to return to Earth on Wednesday, Oct. 31, aboard the old Soyuz. They are to work alongside the space station's three-person crew.
One of the crew's main objectives is to deliver the new Soyuz to the space station. The capsule not only fries astronauts to the station but also serves as its lifeboat in the event of an emergency. It is replaced every six months, according to the European Space Agency.
German elections could return power to Social Democrats
The crew has been aboard the space station since August.
The Associated Press
BERLIN — Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder's Social Democrats swept to victory in Berlin city elections yesterday, giving them a choice of partners that could return the former East German communists to power in the capital for the first time since German reunification.
Incumbent Klaus Wowereit
the first openly gay mayor of a German city, led the Social Democrats to about 30 percent of the vote, up from 22.4 percent in the last election in 1999, according to official projections with most precincts counted.
The conservative Christian Democrats, who had dominated Berlin politics since the country's reunification in 1990, were
crushed at the polls after failing to persuade voters that a possible role for the ex-communist Party of Democratic Socialism was a taboo.
The Social Democrats were poised to become the strongest political force in Berlin for the first time in 30 years, while the Greens — their coalition partner in Berlin and at the national level
— were roughly stable at about 9 percent.
But even with the Greens, Wowereit would lack a majority in the city legislature. That opens broad possibilities in a local election with clear national repercussions less than a year before national elections.
Led by charismatic lawyer and former party chief Gregor Gysi,
the ex-communists immediately staked a claim to a share of power after returns showed them rising to more than 22 percent from 17.7 percent in 1999.
"It's a clear signal for participation in government," Gysi told supporters.
But the Social Democrats insisted they were keeping their options open, and Wowereit said
he would talk first with the Greens.
Wowereit became mayor in June after Social Democrats, Greens and ex-communists in the city legislature joined to vote out a long-serving conservative mayor weakened by a scandal at a city-controlled bank.

KU exercise experts give healthy advice as temperatures cool and students move their workouts indoors. Story by Linda Mendez
It's that time of year again: KU basketball, winter coats, walking to class in the freezing cold — and no more exercising outside.
At least, that's what doctors and exercise scientists from the American Council on Exercise suggest.
suggest. They said that working out in the frigid cold can be anything but conducive to good health When exercising in extreme cold, people are in danger of suffering from hypothermia, dry skin and winter colds.
Some students will bundle up and exercise outside while braving the winter storms, but
others will head to the gym to find a suitable indoor workout plan.
indoor workout plan The council said there were seven primary characteristics when seeking a gym for these chilly months;
Location
Find a gym that is close to home. People are more likely to skip a workout when it's inconvenient to go.
Classes
Make sure the gym offers a variety of classes to ensure its members are never bored.
Staff
Stan Because they are there to help, they should be dependable and knowledgeable.
Hours

Try it before you buy it.
Many gyms offer a trial membership before an official membership.
Reputation
Ask friends or current members what they think of the gym. Word of mouth can be very helpful.
Little details
Finding the perfect gym often goes hand-in
Is the gym clean? Is the equipment functioning? Is it too busy during key workout times? Is there a nice locker room?
THE STORY OF THE CINEMA

hand with finding the perfect exercise schedule.
Jill Urkoski, coordinator of KU fitness services, said finding a workout plan that was appropriate for students depended entirely on their objectives.
then objectives.
"You have to know what you're looking for and then find a workout plan that suits your goals." Urkoski said.
Mike Carrer, a graduate student in exercise physiology, said, "If you're looking to lose weight, you should combine more cardio work with strength training."
Of 75 women informally surveyed at the University, 73 percent said their primary goal at the gym was to lose weight.
A good way to find an appropriate health plan is to have a fitness assessment.
Through the health, sports and exercise science department, the University offers a performance evaluation that can evaluate athletic abilities and suggest a person's optimal workout.
The evaluation, which costs $25, includes a height and weight check, body fat determination, cardiovascular testing, muscle performance evaluation, flexibility testing and an exercise prescription.
For more information about the evaluation call 864-0799 or go to 122 Robinson.
Carrer said consistency was a major part of an effective exercise plan.
an effective exercise is a stress to the body," he said. "Like any other stress, you need to give your body time to adapt."
This adaption happens with consistency.
Carrer suggested continuing the same exercise cycle for four to six weeks. Then, enhance the exercise plan — the body can adapt while being challenged to become more fit.
being challenged to become more But many students need an extra push to keep exercising—a way to reward themselves.
Urkoski suggested listening to music — the beat may keep students moving and make time pass quickly. Television is an option in several local gyms, including the new Burge Union fitness center.

Also, Brown "It's nice to have a motivational partner when you're exercising and it can also be rather entertaining," he said.
Another part of healthy living and effective exercise is eating properly.

The Kansas football team's 38-34 loss at home to archrival Missouri on Saturday afternoon was a debacle, but the game should not cost coach Terry Allen his job.
Because the Jayhawks have won only 20 out of 51 games with Allen coaching on the Kansas sideline, he has not earned the right to return next season. Still, Al Bohl, Kansas' new athletics director, would make a big mistake firing Allen.
During the past year, the general consensus among Jayhawk fans has been that Allen would be fired after this season unless he produced a winning season and an invitation to a bowl game.
Losing to the hated Tigers might have sealed Allen's fate. The Jayhawks would have to beat Iowa State and Wyoming and then win two out of three games against Kansas State, Texas and Nebraska, teams Kansas almost never beats, to qualify for a bowl game.
The chances of the 'Hawks finishing the season with a winning record are about as high as my chances of becoming a famous male model — It's not going to happen. Fans have every right to be disappointed about the Jayhawks' lack of success lately and about losing to Missouri. Falling short at home against the Tigers is, for some, like getting a tooth pulled. But a knee-jerk reaction isn't the answer.
Allen has figured out what it takes win at Kansas, but that knowledge has not yet translated into wins.
The program is heading in the right direction. During Allen's first four years in Lawrence, the Jayhawks had one of the worst assistant coaching staffs in the country. The game plans didn't work, and the team always seemed undisciplined. Allen, being the nice guy that he is, was loyal to his friends and kept them around.
It was a mistake.
Allen, possibly knowing that his job was on the line, fired much of the assistant coaching staff and hired experienced coaches who knew how to win from successful programs such as Oklahoma and Purdue.
The new staff is already making an difference. By letting his assistants run practices, Allen is now able to focus more on the administrative duties of being a head coach. The attitude of the players is more positive, practices are more intense, and players are no longer being patted on the back after they make mistakes.
Allen is also a better coach than he was five years ago. He is no longer afraid to try anything or change a game plan to lead the Jayhawks to victory. This was evident in the Jayhawks' win against Texas Tech earlier this season.
■ Wasko is a Salina senior in journalism
Also, getting kids to come to smalltown Kansas to play for a football program with no tradition is difficult, but somehow Allen has been successful with recruiting talent from around the country.
If Bohl gives Allen just one more season to prove himself, good things will happen for the Jayhawks. According to CBS Sportsline, Kansas has the fourth toughest schedule in the nation this year. Next season, the schedule will be significantly easier.
cantly easier. Firing Allen would be like potty training a dog and then giving it away. Allen has learned from his mistakes, and he will make jayhawk fans proud next season — if he gets the opportunity.
Tigers leap'Hawks for late win

Senior cornerback Quincy Roe's day epitomized the entire Kansas football team's struggle in its 38-34 loss to Missouri on Saturday.

Roe returned an interception for a touchdown in the first quarter as Kansas stormed to a 14-0 lead. However, Roe made several costly plays in the second quarter as the Tigers leapt to the lead, 21-14.
He was flagged for pass interference on a third and five when he became tangled with Tiger receiver Marcus James on an overthrown pass that likely would have fallen incomplete. Several plays later, Missouri running back Zack Abron trotted in from one yard out with the tying touchdown.
On the next Tiger possession, 6-foot-4 receiver Justin Gage literally dragged the 5-foot-9 Roe into the end zone for the go-ahead score on a 14-yard reception.

“It’s a game of momentum,” Roe said. “We had it for a while, but we let it get away from us.”
The game had the makings of a blowout in the first quarter. Driving into a 20-mile-per-hour south wind, Kansas redshirt freshman quarterback Mario Kinsey passed for 118 yards during the quarter, including a 41-yard score to Derek Mills.
Defensively, Kansas kept the Tigers to only two first downs as they stymied the Tigers' running game.

Painful defeat wounds team's spirit
Kansan sportswriter
By Brent Briggeman
Everything Kansas coach Terry Allen and his football team said after Saturday's 38-34 home loss to Missouri expressed their disappointment. But by watching them, the depth of their pain was truly revealed.
Allen rarely looked up as he fielded questions from reporters attending his
post-game press conference. His red face matched the color of his shirt as he continually rubbed his eyes and ran his fingers through his spiked hair.
The redshirt freshman was last off the field as he walked to the locker room with Kansas baseball cap on backward and eyes glued to the ground. Once out of the locker room, Kinsey shrugged when told he needed to speak with reporters
Clearly Allen wanted to be anywhere except in front of cameras and tape recorders at that point.
Starting quarterback Mario Kinsey shared his coach's demeanor.
"This one hurts," Allen said. "It's probably as disappointing a loss as we've had since I've been here."
Kinsey said the loss hurt, but it was the way the 'Hawks lost that made it so
disappointing. The Jayhawks had jumped in front 14-0 in the first half and had great starting field position on their next possession,starting from their own 45-yard line. Buta 14-yard sack on third down killed the drive and any moment the Jayhawks may have had.

"I think we just started out a little slow in the first 20 minutes," said junior midfielder Brooke Jones. "With a good team, if they have opportunities, they are going to take advantage of them."
The Jayhawks had their share of scoring chances but were unable to finish. Jones had a breakaway in the 25th minute but was stopped short by Longhorn goalkeeper Shay Wilkerson's save. Late in the game, freshman forward Monica Brothers connected on a strong header, but Wilkerson was able to stop it as well.

Brothers will be a guest on The Bench, a sports program on KJHK 90.7 FM from 5:15 to 6 p.m. today with hosts Michael Rigg, Chris Wristen and Ryan Greene.

Despite differences in their Kansas connections, Thursday's NBA exhibition between the Utah Jazz and the Philadelphia 76ers in Lawrence was a pleasant homecoming for Utah jazz players Greg Ostertag and DeShawn Stevenson.
This preseason could provide a chance for Ostertag to prove that he is ready to step into the Jazz's starting center spot. Ostertag spent last season coming off the bench and could possibly find himself in the same role if he doesn't get in better shape quickly, said Jazz coach Jerry Sloan.
"I the job is pretty much open," Sloan said. "It's up to him. We need his size and for him to play hard and play well. I was real disappointed in his conditioning when he first came into camp, knowing he had that coming to him.
"Greg knows himself better than I do. Greg has to decide how important basketball is."

But later Kansas pushed up the field with Angus Mugford scoring a try with Oliver Parkinson kicking for points after, making the score 7-5. Parkinson once again made points by kicking a drop goal from about 22 meters, giving the Jayhawks a 10-5 lead. Right before halftime, Truman scored a penalty kick for a 10-8 game. Truman started out the second half by scoring a try and converting the point. Parkinson kicked a penalty and cut the Truman lead to 13-15. Then Truman kicked a penalty, making it 13-18. In the final moments of the game, Parkinson scored a try, and Swartz kicked the conversion for the win.

Close but tough matchups give Hawks career-high stats,but Texas stands at 12-0 against KU

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team lost two close matches at home during fall break, losing in four games to No. 17 Texas A&M on Wednesday night and dropping a marathon match to Baylor on Saturday.
Sophomore outside bitter Sarah Rome scored double doubles and led the team in kills in both matches. Rome tied her career high on Wednesday with 20 kills. Then she crushed her high on Saturday with 27. She was the only Jayhawk with double-digits in kills against the Aggies.
Junior middle blocker Molly Scavuzzo was second with nine. Scavuzzo added a team-high four blocks.
Rome added 11 digs against Texas A&M and 14 against Baylor.
"We weren't as balanced as we needed to be," said coach Ray Bechard. "Our first pass wasn't giving our setters as many options as it needed to."
The Jayhawks played the Aggies close in the first three games, winning game two 30-26, and losing games one and three, 30-27 and 30-25. But they were handled quickly in game four, 30-21.
"We really battled for most of the match but let the enthusiasm slip a little in game four." Bechard said. "It's a two-hour match; you can't play for an hour and a half against a really good team. I think we laid out a pretty good effort in games two and three, but you still have to be able to respond and bounce back and try to get up to that game five."

NBA: Former'Hawks return
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Jazz guard John Stockton said Utah would need Ostertag's size and rebound this season. He said that watching Ostertag improve during their time together in Utah had been enjoyable.
"Greg has improved a great deal since he got here," Stockton said. "He's helped out the team tremendously. He's a really good shot-blocker, a good rebounder. He's figured out a lot of ways to help this team."
Unlike Ostertag, the 20-year-old Stevenson wasn't sure what kind of reception he would receive Thursday night. Stevenson was one of the top high school seniors in the nation two years ago, and Kansas had won a hard-fought recruiting battle for him.
But after Stevenson's qualifying SAT score was red-flagged and deemed unusable by a national
testing service, the Fresno, Calif.
native declared for the NBA draft.
Stevenson, who was a late first-round pick of the Jazz last year, said he was excited about returning to Lawrence, although he was worried about the reception he would receive from Jayhawk fans.
"I'm happy to be coming back," Stevenson said. "I've got a lot of friends there like Drew Gooden. I'm close to coach Williams. When I signed I thought I'd go there, but it didn't happen. I hope they treat me like a KU player, but I think they're a little mad I didn't go there."
Stevenson's maturity has been tested in his first 16 months as a professional. The 6-5 guard went from being a high-school start to riding the bench in the NBA. Stevenson said he used last year to be a student of the game, learning from older play
ers such as Karl Malone, Danny Manning and John Stockton.
This summer Stevenson and a friend were charged with statutory rape after he allegedly had consensual sex with a 14-year-old girl. One of the girls involved altered her story recently in a preliminary hearing, but Stevenson will still stand trial Thursday, Oct. 25, and could face up to a year in jail if convicted of the misdemeanor.
Stevenson stayed on the Jazz bench throughout the first half but started the second half and contributed six points in the Jazz victory.
"When you are young in the NBA, you will not get a lot of time." Stevenson said. "You have to work on your skills whenever you can. It's what I do, work on skills every day."

NBA game brings Brown back
By Ali Brox
Kansan sportswriter
The NBA came to Allen Fieldhouse on Thursday night along with the last coach to win a national championship at Kansas. Coach Larry Brown, last year's NBA Coach of the Year, returned to the fieldhouse as his Philadelphia 76ers took on the Utah Jazz in an exhibition game. Brown was the coach of the 1988 Kansas national championship team.
"I enjoyed every minute of '88," Brown said.
Before tip-off, Kansas coach Roy Williams recognized Brown's return and presented him with a Kansas letter jacket.
"A few years ago, Wilt Chamberlain came back, and we retired his jersey, and one of the most touching moments to me was Wilt Chamberlain wearing his KU letter jacket." Williams said. "I was trying to think of a way to make this night special for Larry, and the only thing I could think of for such an impact guy would be to
have his own KU letter jacket."
"I wanted my players to see this place rocking," Brown said. "You just know every time you step on the court here it's pretty special."
Brown said he was glad to be back in the fieldhouse but was disappointed that many Kansas students were gone for fall break.
With the wealth of injuries the 76ers experienced in the preseason and the trades involving the Jazz, Brown expressed regret for the fans as well.
"I'm sorry that Danny (Manning) and Jacque (Vaughn) weren't here," Brown said. "And I'm disappointed for our fans that Allen (Iverson) and my team couldn't have been here."
The injuries to the 76ers created a different look for the team with many young players getting more of an opportunity to play. Brown emphasized that the exhibition games were a good time to get the young players some needed experience.
"Obviously without our top eight players, all you can do is
hope you give time to the young kids and give them valuable experience." Brown said.
Despite losing 95-70 to the Jazz, Brown said he enjoyed having the game in the fieldhouse.
"It was great." Brown said. "I didn't like the side of the court I was sitting on. I remember coach Stewart sitting there. But it was phenomenal; it was a great experience."
Bell said he also enjoyed the opportunity to play in the fieldhouse.
"Yeah, it was a good experience," Bell said. "I was excited to get a chance to play in the fieldhouse. It's one of the most tradition-rich buildings in the country."
Brown said he always liked the teaching aspect of coaching and thinks that even in the NBA, most guys let coaches teach. He said the exhibition game was a great lesson for his young players, especially the play of Jazz point guard, John Stockton.

QB switch satisfies Sooners
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — A new quarterback won't mean a new look for No. 2 Oklahoma and won't result in any distractions, coach Bob Stoops said yesterday.
Stoops' weekly news conference followed his announcement Monday night that Jason White is now the starter for the Sooners, who own the nation's longest winning streak at 19 games.
Nate Hybl started the first six games but failed to finish the past two. He was knocked out of the Texas game two weeks ago with a shoulder injury, then was removed from the Kansas game Saturday night after four unproductive series.
Stoops recalled his years as an assistant at Florida, when the Gators won Southeastern Conference titles after making changes at quarterback.
"I don't understand where the
problem would be or why it would be a distraction," he said. "Both these guys practice with our team every day, our players have got great respect for both of 'em, and our players understand that around here you earn your way."
White has done that with his strong play off the bench. He was 16 of 23 for 108 yards against Texas and showed a nice touch on option plays while running for 38 yards.
He gained 117 yards on 12 carries against Kansas, and was 18 of 29 passing for 151 yards and four touchdowns.
Center Vince Carter and fullback Chris Toney said the change at quarterback wasn't a big deal.
It was the kind of answer Stoops would expect.
"I think what's great about both of them, and about this team, is they understand that
their role on this team is to help us succeed and to win, and to help our offense move, however that may be." Stoops said.
"This isn't anybody's personal playground. They're here to help us succeed as a team, and they understand whatever way that is, they're going to help us."
The Sooners (6-0, 3-0 Big 12)
play Baylor this week.
SOONERS NOTES: Stoops said he wouldn't know until late in the week whether Quentin Griffin would start at tailback. Griffin, bothered by a hip injury, carried just four times against Kansas.
Stoops said he was impressed with how strong his offense was in the second half against Kansas. "That's positive to see as you continue through the season," he said.

Football: Tigers leap Jayhawks for win
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
was just like a new game at halftime—that's what we told ourselves."
Missouri put the first two scores on the board in the second half as Brad Hammerich kicked a 40-yard field goal, and receiver James caught a 25-yard pass from Farmer.
Kansas responded with a 22-yard interception return for a touchdown by sophomore cornerback Carl Ivey. But an excessive celebration penalty
moved the extra-point attempt back 15 yards, and the Johnny Beck kick was blocked.
The Jayhawks took a 34-31 lead on a 15-yard scamper by sophomore running back Reggie Duncan with 12:55 remaining in the game.
Missouri answered on its next possession with a 14-yard pass to tight to Dwayne Blakley. The Tigers' drive had been kept alive earlier on a 14-yard completion to Gage on third down and 13.
Gage, whom Terry Allen called the difference in the game, finished the day with 148 yards on 11 catches.
Trailing by four, Kansas elected to punt on fourth and one from its own 45-yard line with just less than five minutes remaining. Missouri kept the ball on the ground, collected four first downs and ran out the clock without giving it back to Kansas. A frustrated Kansas offense watered from the sidelines as Missouri preserved the 38-34 win.
Allen said he regretted the decision to punt.
"We thought maybe we'd be able to get the football back, but obviously we weren't able to do that," he said. "That was very much a deciding factor."
The loss dropped Kansas to 2-4 overall and 1-3 in the Big 12 Conference. Missouri improved to 3-3 overall and 2-2 in the Big 12.

Defeat: Kansas lessens chance for bowl bid
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
a 10-play scoring drive. It was a seesaw affair from there, with Missouri ultimately running out the clock for the win.
In previous losses, Kansas could point to specific areas in which it needed to improve. For example, the defense couldn't stop UCLA as it surrendered 29 first downs in the 41-17 loss in week two. And last week, the offense picked
up only eight first downs in the 38-10 loss to Oklahoma.
Without a scapegoat, Allen said Saturday's loss was defeating for the entire team.
"We didn't lose it offensively, we didn't lose it defensively and we didn't lose it on the special teams," he said. "We lost it as a football team."
After upsetting Texas Tech on the road two weeks ago, Kansas had begun circling the games it needed to secure the
necessary six wins to become bowl eligible. A win at home against a 2-3 Missouri team was considered a must-win if the team was to accomplish the goal.
Kansas must now finish out its schedule with a 4-1 record to qualify for a bowl, a daunting task considering the team still has trips to Kansas State and Texas, as well as a home date against Nebraska.
The must-win atmosphere
made Saturday's loss difficult, and that doesn't even take into consideration the fact that the Jayhawks lost to the Tigers, their archival.
Figures: "When you lose to Mizzou, it's the worst feeling," said defensive end Marquis Hayes, a native of Booneville. Mo., who became chocked up as he spoke. "It just hurts."

ISSUE 40 VOLUME 112
'Mademoiselle says au revoir after 66 years of glamour
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
The November 2001 issue of Mademoiselle magazine will become a collector's item soon.
Conde Nast Publications said in an Oct.1 press release that the November issue would be the last one because publication of the magazine was no longer viable.
"The magazine had a challenging year in trying to find its readers and its voice," said Mistrella Egan, director of public relations for Mademoiselle.
Egan blamed poor economic conditions, especially after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
But Sharon Bass, associate professor of journalism, said the economy was not fully responsible in this case.
"The economy doesn't help, but it can't be blamed," she said. "I think that they have tried to figure out what their mission is going to be, and they have overlapping missions with other publications such as Glamour and Vogue."
Egan said that the targeted audience of Mademoiselle was females between 25 and 29. This is the same demographic for many women's fashion magazines, Bass said.
Part of the reason *Mademoiselle* may have had trouble attracting this group is that newer magazines try to attract the same group with fresher ideas and looks, Bass said.
Mademoiselle began publication in 1935. Magazines such as Jane, Marie Claire and Maxim began in the last 10 to 15 years and have taken some readers away from Mademoiselle.
The difficulty in finding advertisers was also a reason Mademoiselle shut down. Egan said.
Bass said that when the economy was poor, advertisers tended to pull ads, meaning magazines made less money.
She also said that when several magazines tried to draw the same demographic, they not only fought for readers, but they also fought for the small number of advertisers that wanted to reach that same market.
wanted to see Lindsey Killian, a KU student with an emphasis in magazine journalism, said she was unaware that *Mademoiselle* had stopped publication. The Kansas City, Mo., senior, said it worried her as she began her search for a job after she graduates in May.
Killiany said she wanted to work in the consumer magazine industry and wouldn't mind working for a fashion magazine. She said she didn't know where to even look for a job with the economy as bad as it was.
"I'm going to take a job wherever I can find one," she said.
can inform one.
Beth Janes, associate beauty editor for Shape magazine and May 2000 KU graduate, said she was worried about the state of the magazine industry in general.
try in general.
"Several of my friends have been laid off," she said. "I don't sense from the environment here that my job is in jeopardy, but you can't help but worry when you read the newspaper every day to hear that this company or that company is laying of X thousands of workers or Mademoiselle, a magazine that's been for 63 years is closing."
Mademoiselle employed 93 people, Egan said. Condé Nast gave those employees a severance package and tried to place them in other magazines published by Condé Nast.
THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS
The 850,223 subscribers of Mademoiselle will begin receiving Glamour magazine with the January 2002 issue.

Sam Gray, Blue Rapids sophomore, and Vernon Brejcha, retiring associate professor of art and design, look at two pieces on display in the art and design gallery. Brejcha had a retrospective art show in honor of his 26 years of teaching at the University. Artwork in the show was either Brejcha's or his students.
Retrospective honors retiring art professor
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
A tribute to an art professor who will retire at the end of the semester gave KU students the opportunity to admire blown glass art objects that are no longer created at the University.
Vernon Brejcha, associate professor of art and design, displayed the artwork from his career as well as the artwork of former students at his retrospective show. Brejcha, who specialized in glass blowing, will retire in December after 26 years at the University.
years at the University.
"Rather than the retrospective be about me, I asked them to send back some examples for the show." Brejcha said, referring to students he has taught in the past.
Brejcha taught glass blowing for years before the University closed
the program in 1991.
"It's the biggest, hottest craft movement in the United States today," he said.
Justin Schmidt, Kansas City, Kan., junior, said he attended the retrospective event because he wanted to see Brejcha's other works. Schmidt is enrolled in Brejcha's ceramics class this semester
Brejcha, who is a Kansan native, said he used his art to show his pride for living in the Midwest. He said most of his glass work and other projects related to the prairies or nature.
"I can't believe they did away with the glass blowing program here with a teacher like this," Schmidt said.
"I work very literal and things may look abstract to people but it directly relates back to nature," he said.
Brejcha said his current series is about the Carolina matrix, where gemstones
and the only emerald mine in the United States were found.
Jon Burns, Philadelphia graduate student, said he was interested in Brejcha's work because of the professor's glass blowing. Burns said he sat in on a couple of Brejcha's classes in the past and enjoyed his teaching style and artwork.
"His work is really diverse and you can see his big idea, which is the prairie and Midwest," Burns said.
Brejcha said that, after retiring, he would continue working hard because he had to be active. He said he had been asked to teach in various places across the country.
"I have so many arms in the fire, it is insane," he said.

Students seek legal, personal guidance at panel on rape
ByJ.R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
Warinner said she thought that rape issues needed to be addressed more at the University of Kansas.
Tina Warinner said she had two friends who were raped and three who survived attempted rapes.
"Here, it's a secret that KU doesn't address well," said Warinner, Overland Park senior.
She and three other women attended a panel discussion, "The Emotional and Legal Consequences of Rape," sponsored by the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. The panel was a part of Sexual Violence Awareness Week events. The week's theme is "It's About Respect."
Representatives from the resource center, Counseling and Psychological Services, Department of Student Housing, the District Attorney's Office, KU Public Safety Office, United Methodist Campus Ministry and Watkins Memorial Heath Center spoke about issues dealing with rape.
Dave Zabel, assistant district attorney, explained the legal procedures involved when someone reported a crime such as rape. He said sometimes it came down to one person's word against another's.
"We have to look at what the evidence is," Zabel said. "Our standard is beyond a reasonable doubt as to what we can prove. That's a pretty high burden."
He said a person's criminal history and severity of crime were factors in determining the sentence if the person was convicted on a rape charge. Zabel said rape was considered a level-one felony in Kansas with the minimum sentence of 12 years.
Kathy Rose-Mockry, program director for the resource center, said her office offered a sexual assault prevention education program.
"We are working on creative ways to address problems," Rose-Mockry said. "There's not one right way to respond."
Warinner said that the discussion was informative but that rape needed to be discussed more, especially in residence halls.
residence hall needs to let students know it's a real danger so they don't feel so isolated," she said. "Education is very important. It's great to know there are services available."

Former ambassador speaks on terrorism
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
Matlock JR, who served as the last U.S. ambassador to the Soviet Union from 1987 to 1991, said the attacks to the World Trade Center and the Pentagon showed that the United States was not immune to terrorism.
Jack F. Matlock Jr. shared his perspectives on a number of foreign policy issues yesterday during his visit to the University of Kansas, including his views on the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks to New York City and Washington, D.C.
"Many had described the events of Sept. 11 by saying the world changed, and I expressed my view that the world didn't change," he said. "It was just
During the press conference, he said that he thought the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States was finished before the break-up of the Soviet Union and that relations between the two countries could have been better afterwards.
our perception of the world that changed."
Matlock Jr. spoke to about 70 people at a press conference in the Kansas Union about past and current relations between the United States and Russia.
Ranjit Arab, news and science writer for University Relations, said that the lecture was one of several events organized
"I think that the Clinton administration had no strategy for dealing with the post Cold War." Matlock Jr. said.
INSIDETODAY
Sean Hatfield, Bennington freshman, said he attended the lecture because it related to his planned major of political science and international studies.
"The U.S. should do more to help them recover what they were under for so many years," Hatfield said. "I think they could be a very important ally for us."
He said he was interested to hear from Matlock Jr. on how Russia and the United States interact now and how Russia aligns itself with the United States since the Cold War.

Slowing business causes lavoffs at Emerson Electric
ST.LOUIS - Emerson Electric said yesterday that it is cutting 4,000 jobs, or 10 percent of its salaried work force, and will close about 20 of its 350 plants because of slower business aggravated by last month's terrorist attacks.
About 70 percent of the cuts have already occurred, Emerson representative Mark Polzin. He refused to discuss details, saying more details could be announced Tuesday, Nov. 6, when quarterly and fiscal-year earnings are announced.
Year earnings rise the Emerson had sales of $15.5 billion in the last fiscal year. But it warned yesterday that its operating earnings would be lower than Wall Street expects this fiscal year.
This year "has proven to be a challenging year for our businesses," said chief executive David N. Farr, "Economic difficulties that were initially confined largely to U.S. industrial goods and telecom equipment spending have expanded into a broad-based global downturn, and the effects of the Sept. 11 tragedies are adding further impact."
California lawmaker to begin campaign for Condit's seat
MODESTO, Calif. — A California lawmaker said yesterday that he will run for the seat held by Rep. Gary Condit next year, becoming the second Democrat to challenge the embattled congressman.
Assemblyman Dennis Cardoza said he would formally launch his campaign today, ending more than a decade of friendship and political partnership with Condit.
Last week, Tom Ciccarelli, the head of Modesto charity, became the first Democrat announce a bid for Condit's seat.
Ciccarelli, who once campaigned for Condit, said he was "disgusted" with the congressman's behavior after former government intern Chandra Levy vanished from Washington in May. Police have said Condit, 53, is not considered a suspect in the 24-year-old's disappearance.

China officials make way for first foreign TV station
The Associated Press
The Associated Press
AOL Time Warner is getting a foothold in the rapidly developing Chinese television market, which foreign broadcasters are eager to break into. Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. is also trying to negotiate a similar arrangement with China, where nearly every household owns a television.
BEIJING AOL Time Warner Inc. announced a landmark deal yesterday that will make it the first foreign television broadcaster in China, in exchange for carrying Chinese state television's English-language channel on U.S. cable systems.
The deal is also a turning point for China's communist officials. They regard television as
a key propaganda tool and strictly control it, though millions of Chinese already watch broadcasts from abroad on illegal satellite dishes. Beijing appeared to be willing to relax those controls slightly in exchange for getting access to American audiences.
AOL Time Warner relies heavily on the U.S. market for its media businesses, which include Time magazine, HBO, CNN, AOL and the Warner Bros. film and music studio, and it has been stepping up its efforts to expand overseas.
AOL's Chinese-language channel CETV would be carried in the province of Guangdong.
Postal workers tested for anthrax
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Two Washington-area postal workers have been diagnosed with inhalation anthrax and two more employees at the same facility have died of symptoms consistent with this rare form of the disease, officials said yesterday as the nation dealt with an unprecedented bioterrorism threat.
Ivan Walks, physician and the city's chief health official, also said authorities were investigating nine more cases that have aroused concern. He said he did not know how many of the nine were postal workers or how many were hospitalized.
The disclosures came as postal workers
lined up by the dozens for testing, and city authorities urged anyone connected to the affected Brentwood central mail facility to come forward immediately for screening.
Some 1,000 workers were tested Sunday.
Officials also planned environmental testing at the facilities. They will use results to determine which workers need a full dose of the preventive antibiotics.
Authorities were conducting tests on clinical samples from the two postal workers who died after showing symptoms consistent with anthrax. Preliminary blood testing had caused anthrax suspicions.

Plans for Mexico City airport upset environmentalists
MEXICO CITY-A dry lake bed east of Mexico City will be the site of the city's new international airport, federal transportation authorities said yesterday in a decision likely to anger environmentalists.
Critics cast the decision to build on the salt-encrusted Texcoo lake bed, 14 miles east of Mexico City, as a threat to migratory birds that nest nearby and a step backward in efforts to restore the lakes that once encircled the island city.
Environmentalists say the birds could endanger air traffic by being sucked into plane engines.
"As usual, the politicians and their cronies are going to profit from this deal, and the victims are going to be hundreds of thousands of migratory birds," said environmentalist Homero Aridjis.

Search for new dean of libraries down to three
By Eve Lamborn
Kansan staff writer
Three finalists for the dean of libraries position were decided last week by the library search committee.
The finalists are Charles W. Simpson, assistant director of libraries for systems and administration at the State University of New York, Stony Brook; Dana Rooks, dean of libraries at the University of Houston; and Stella Bentley, dean of libraries at Auburn University.
Bill Carswell, search committee chairman, said the search process had gone well so far.
"There was a good agreement on each of the candidates," he said. "They are all well-positioned and have good experience."
Carswell said the next step in the selection process would be for the finalists visit campus for interviews and presentations. Simpson visited campus last week, Rooks is on campus now, and Bentley will come to the University in November.
The finalists are meeting with library-related constituencies and University-wide constituences. Carswell said.
He said the search committee would get feedback from those groups after the visits. The committee will then draft a document for Provost David Shulenburger outlining the strengths and weaknesses of each candidate. The provost will make the final decision. Carswell said he hoped to see the position filled by the beginning of January.
the beginning of partnership.
The dean of libraries oversees all the libraries on the Lawrence and Edwards campuses. These libraries contain 3.3 million books and 27,000 periodical titles. The dean of libraries has a $14 million annual budget.
Keith Russell resigned the dean of libraries position in January for health-related reasons. Julia Rholes has served as interim dean since then.

Critter control seeks humane treatment
By Maggie Koerth and Jessica Hood
Congratulations Koeon
Special to the Kansan
Snakes slide through ever-growing piles of leaves. The sounds of scampering feet and the chattering calls of raccoons, opossums and skunks fill the air.
This is no forest scene. It's a typical Lawrence backyard, garage, attic or basement.
Many homeowners see the animals as pests, but Marty Birrell, who runs the Lawrence Nature Center, said she did not see the animals as pests and said they should not be treated as such.
treated as such. "I have very little sympathy for people who move into a housing development in what used to be the forest and then want all the animals removed from their property," she said.
Casey McLenon, who works for Critter Control Services, 4825 Cody St. in shawnee, Kan., said that his company usually caught animals in live traps. He said Critter Control employees released the creatures outside of town, usually in a field or a
wooded area. He said his methods were humane because they didn't harm the animals.
But Birrell said just dropping an animal off was not the best course of action. She said raccoons and opossums often find themselves back in the city.
"They are taught to eat from the garbage and to sleep in attics or garages," Birrell said. "That's how they know to live."
they show to live. Dropring off an urban animal outside the city would put the animal at risk of being attacked by wild animals, Birrell said. The animal could also die of starvation because it may not know how to provide for itself in a rural environment.
Birrell said an opossum left on its own in bad weather, especially during the winter months, may not know where to find shelter and may die of exposure.
exposure
Andrew Frye. Overland Park senior, had squirrels in his attic this fall. His roommate eventually called the house's landlord who patched the holes and removed the squirrels. Frye
said that he preferred that the animals be left alone but that his reaction would differ depending on the species of animal.
species of animals
"If a opossum were in my house,
I'd definitely call pest control and
have it removed." Frye said. "Opossums are freaky, It all comes down to personality. Squirrels have it, opossums don't."
Birrell said she realized most people don't care about what happened to animals they found in their homes, but education can change that. She said Nature Center employees tried to make homeowners care about animals.
Birrell said her staff counsels people on how to remove the animals, but usually their recommendation is to leave the animal alone
If the weather is bad, the center explains how to set up shelters under old logs or piles of leaves so the released animals will stand a better chance of surviving. The Nature Center sometimes removed animals that were dangerous.
Nature Center employees also
advise homeowners on ways that they can prevent animals from getting into their homes, Birrell said. For example, putting caps on the chimney or patching a hole are easy solutions to keeping squirrels out of the attic.
McLenon said in some instances animals needed to be removed, particularly if the animal is causing damage to the home.
"When it is freezing, the animals aren't as active, so no one calls to have them removed," McLenon said.
He said he didn't worry about animals surviving during cold weather.
Birrell said sharing a house with animals could be trying for some homeowners, but she hoped people would change their attitudes and actions toward uninvited animals.

Halloween festival proceeds to aid student
By Jessica Tims Special to the Kansan
The nontraditional students organization, OAKS, is planning its first Halloween Festival, which will also serve as a fundraiser.
"The festival should be a lot of fun for students with children," said Joan Winston, OAKS president. "We are not making money for OAKS, we just wanted to do something fun for Halloween."

Winston said all proceeds from the festival, would go to OAKS member Rachel Magario, Sao Paulo, Brazil, junior, who is awaiting a kidney transplant after doctors diagnosed
Richard Strong, owner of Strong Farms, said the festival would include his farm's attractions plus live music. It will also have a petting zoo, wagon rides for children and hay rack rides for children and adults. The corn maze will turn into a haunted house at night.
"We will have everything we
always have,and we are making room for some extra food vendors," Strong said.
Winston said the festival would also have a costume contest.
"I will say that the Lawrence merchants have been very good to us," she said.
The festivities are not only for people. Winston said. Pets are welcome on the farm.
"For people with four-legged children, doggies are welcome, but they must come leashed." Winston said. "We also encourage you to dress the dogs up. We will have a costume contest for them also."
Buses will be available at the Kansas Union and will leave for Strong Farms at 3:30 p.m. A return trip will be made halfway through the festival and afterward at 9 p.m.
Tickets can be purchased through Thursday at the SUA office in the Kansas Union and at the Emily Taylor Woman's Resource Center in Strong Hall. Prices for students are $5 in advance and $7 at the gate. Regular admission is $7. and admission for children ages 7 to 12 is $4. Children under the age of 6 get in free.

Kansans may dig at dinosaur site
Colorado fossil find gives amateurs chance to learn The Associated Press
The Associated Press
Fort Hays State University is asking Kansas residents, and especially teachers, to help dig up a dinosaur skeleton recently discovered in southeast Colorado
The Forest Service has awarded a $27,490 grant to Fort Hays State to cover the cost of digging out the fossil, sealing it in plaster and moving it to the university's Sternberg Museum of Natural History.
The museum is setting up a program that will let to 10 to 15 teachers take part in the fossil dig in the Comanche National Grassland in May. Five to 10 slots will be available to Kansas residents who are not teachers through a Forest Service volunteer program known as "Passport In Time," said Forest Service paleontologist Bruce Schumacher.
macher.
"We suspect there will be a lot more interest than we will be able to accommodate." Sternberg
assistant director Greg Liggett told The Wichita Eagle. "It will be a great experience if people are interested in digging dinosaurs, and a lot of people are."
Schumacher said the fossil find was important because it showed that 150 million years ago, sauropods, the huge, long-necked dinosaurs that included brontosaurus and diplodocus, ranged farther east than scientists once thought, within 100 miles of the Kansas-Colorado border. The dinosaur may have been 80 feet long and weighed as much as 50 tons.
Liggett said the university would provide $28,790 worth of hands-on services for the project, including cleaning, stabilizing and storing the fossil for study.
Teachers selected for the program will receive one to three hours of graduate credit for their experience, Liggett said. The program will involve classroom lectures at the university followed by a working weeklong field trip to the site, and winding up with participants developing teaching materials to be used in their classrooms. Tuition has not been set.
The five to 10 Passport in Time volunteers will have to cover the cost of getting to the site and taking part in the project, Schumacher said. He has asked Liggett to screen candidates for those slots, too.
The Colorado dig site is near the Picketwire Canyonlands Dinosaur Tracks, where more than 1,300 dinosaur footprints are preserved in fossilized rock. Schumacher said it was unlikely this dinosaur left any of those footprints, but its descendants might have.
The project is likely to take several years to complete, giving others who are interested a chance to take part in it, said Schumacher.
Even if most of the skeleton can be located and recovered, Liggett said, it is unlikely it will be assembled as a mounted display. Instead, it will be stored in the museum's extensive fossil collection, to be used for research and for teaching future generations of Kansas students about the long-extinct creatures, he said.
Long-time Topeka mortician astounded by depth of destruction in New York
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Bob Hoover isn't easily shocked. As a combat veteran of Vietnam and a mortician for 32 years, he's no stranger to the gruesome aspects of life and death.
But nothing, the Topeka resident said, prepared him for what he saw when he was summoned to New York City last month.
He spent two weeks working for the federal government's Disaster Mortuary Operations Response Team, recovering bodies and helping identify victims of the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center. He'll return to the site next month.
"I am a Christian person, and if there is such thing as a hell, a lot of these people went through hell," said Hoover, who manages Crable Funeral Home in Osage City, about 25 miles south of Topeka.
I would say that the destruction spreads for eight square blocks, and then the dust and chaos it caused probably spreads 30 blocks every way. There's been more fragmentation (of
body parts) than you could realize," he said.
Although the process of identifying the victims has been achingly slow, Hoover thinks technology will allow all of those killed to be identified — some day.
"I would say that with DNA evidence, over the long haul, they will all be identified, but it will take years," he said. He spent part of his rotation in New York in the medical examiner's office taking DNA samples from remains.
Hoover has been a member of the Disaster Mortuary Operations Response Team since 1991. His assignments have included the recovery of bodies that were washed out of the cemetery in Hardin, Mo., when the Missouri River flooded in 1993, and the 1997 crash of a Korean Air jumbo jet on the island of Guam that killed 228 people.
He had never visited New York before last month and was surprised by the general attitude he encountered.
"I was thinking New York

City is a place that says, 'Get out of my face,' but these people were so happy to see us there so we could do our job," he said.
Nearly two weeks after returning to Topeka, Hoover still doesn't feel normal, but he is ready to continue his life's work.
"I'll go back in 30 days," he said. "I'm proud to serve my country."

OPINION EDITOR'S NOTE
What is your vision of KU in 2030?
I am a fifth-generation Jayhawk. More than a century has passed since my great-grandmother graduated from KU law, as each successive generation has spent their college years on Mount Oread, Mount Oread has looked and felt different.
How will it be different for my children and for yours?
As KU has grown over the years, students, professors, traditions, and buildings have come and gone. Over the next few weeks, the opinion page will retrieve items from the dustbin of KU's history to highlight how much and little the school has changed over the years.
Then, in November, several issues will be devoted to students' and faculty members' guesses of how the University will change over the next thirty years when the children of the current crop of students will be sleeping through classes on the hill.
The opinion page is soliciting essays, artvork and even Free for All comments describing ideas of life at KU in 2030. These an be e-mailed to opinion@kansan.com or delivered to 111 Stuaffer-Flint.
Submissions can include a sketch of Jayaawk Boulevard, a diary entry from a freshman coming up to school, a redesigned ogo, an alternative use for the remenants of Vescoe Hall, a pay scale for GTAs or a sample class schedule. Have fun.

PERSPECTIVE
There are several students among us who are beginning to prepare for a pilgrimage they will take in late-November, regardless of rain, cold, anger, or words of discouragement. They will drive sixteen hours through the night and work tirelessly throughout the weekend. They will use their words, their minds, and their bodies to make a statement, meet new people, cry with them and return to Lawrence forever changed.
Going off to fight for justice
Protesting for countless years is tiring, and protesting the U.S. Army School of the Americas (SOA) is no different. Many KU students have gone to Ft. Benning, Ga., in years past and are tired of this struggle. But they will be encouraged by those going for the first time, and by the reminder that each voice matters. One more body standing in defiance could finally end this and save lives.
Each of them know they can do something to end the killing. They can raise awareness and work to close the school that teaches how to kill.
In light of the recent attacks on America, the violence that has ensued, and the attention that has been brought to the plight of the Afghan people, closing the SOA is even more crucial. Civilian-targeted warfare must stop. Teaching an army how to kill its own people is a senseless and cruel act, that weas United States citizens must stand against.

Commentary
Today, we the American people, are funding the SOA with our tax dollars, and therefore are partly responsible for the genocidal warfare that has left a trail of blood and suffering across Latin America. People ask how can it be that others in the world hate America. The truth is that our involvement in other countries isn't always heroic.
Since 1946 more than 600,000 soldiers have graduated from the U.S. SOA, and some have been involved in the murder of thousands of innocent women, men, children and infants, in Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Chiapas, Nicaragua, and elsewhere, according to SOA Watch.
KU Latin American Solidarity, an organization here at the university, has taken on the responsibility to coordinate the trip to Ft. Benning this fall. The protest will take place November 17 and 18. Please join us.
In 1993 the United Nations concluded that specific vicious and brutal acts involved graduates of the School of the Americas. Yet the school that taught them, and continues to teach others, remains open and accepts new students — to the tune of $20 million tax dollars a year.
I was surrounded by fellow Americans from around the country. They were students, nuns, priests, children grandparents, monks, union leaders and the relatives of thousands that have been massacred and disappeared.
Last year, at the gates of Ft. Benning,
We were all saying one simple thing. We want justice. Close the School of the Americas. And we will stand together again this year on both sides of the line.
Luetke-Stahlman is a senior in economics and political science from Olathe
I was arrested last year, along with my 18-year-old sister, and we risk up to six months in jail and $5,000 in fines if we again cross onto Ft. Benning.
So now I turn to others to ask you to cross that line. I will still be there at the gates, proudly supporting those that risk arrest this year, including my father and 13 and 15 year-old siblings. We must close this school. We are so close. If the American people stand up and demand an end to supporting this terror, I am confident our voices cannot be ignored.
PERSPECTIVE
Senator's stance on female suffrage reflects still-prevalent gender roles
State Sen. Kay O'Connor, a Republican from Olathe, recently said that female suffrage - women's right to vote
In O'Connor's ideal world, men are the head of the home and women are the heart. If men take care of women, then women don't need to vote. O'Connor has since said she was taking a philosophical position. Because we are not living in O'Connor's ideal world, she votes, and encourages other women to do so.
was a bad thing. Yes, you read that correctly.
Ronda Hassig, a Lenexa resident, has started a recall drive to try to get O'Connor out of office. She has to gather about 3,200 signatures of registered voters in her district of about 77,000 to apply for the petition to recall. If she makes that, Hassig will need a total of 14,000 signatures for the petition. If the state approves the signatures and the grounds for the recall Hassig plans to argue incompetence then the recall election will proceed
As deplorable as O'Connor's remarks are, she should remain in office. What makes O'Connor incompetent, the fact that she voiced an unpopular opinion? Should we recall our elected officials because they speak their minds?
Commentary
M.
If the citizens of O'Connor's district want to recall her, then they should wait until her term is up in 2004, and vote her out of office. Politicians should be judged not on their morals, but on their actions.
John Audlehelm
Columnist
opinionakansan.com
In her eight years in the House of Representatives and this year in the Senate, O'Connor has pushed for school vouchers — and that's pretty much it, according to The Kansas City Star. Still, plenty of people are for school vouchers and are still for female suffrage.
"O'Connor is not practicing what she preaches. But we can't complain, when she's preaching what we practice."
How moral would it be to vote
O'Connor out of office because of her sexist beliefs when we have plenty of them ourselves?
That's right, our society still practices sexism. Men are generally expected to ask women out on dates. On these dates, men are expected to practice chivalry — open doors and
pull out chairs for women, order for them, stand when they enter the room
This is done out of "respect." But how is it respectful to treat women differently just because they're women? The fact that a woman has just walked into the room has nothing to do with the fact that she's a woman.
I also know a lot of feminists who are all about equal rights until it's their turn to buy their boyfriend a beer. Traditional expectations for men and women as still more prevalent than we would like to think. While we're at the bar, let's examine what the patrons are wearing. Women's bodies, and the clothes they wear on them, are still scrutinized on average more than men's bodies. Men can show up unshaven and without ever having done a sit-up.
Let me be clear. I think women should be able to choose what they want to do, as long as they choose to keep wearing Daisy Dukes that show off nice legs. I am a 22-year-old heterosexual male. My morals pretty much go out the window on this one, along with my inability to call O'Connor a hypocrite.
many argue that, as a female office-holder who opposes female suffrage, O'Connor is not practicing what she preaches. But we can't complain, when she's preaching what we practice.

Surgery could save lymph glands
The Associated Press
LISBON, Portugal — New surgical techniques could save the lymph nodes and avoid radiotherapy after breast cancer surgery, a leading expert said yesterday.
Traditional breast surgery involves removing all the lymph glands in the armpit to determine if the tumor has spread. Most of the time in early breast cancer, it has not. However, about 20 percent of women then suffer the rest of their lives from swelling in their arms, which can painfully balloon to twice the normal size and leave them disabled and prone to
infections.
Umberto Veronesi, a pioneer of breast conserving surgery in the 1970s, presented new evidence at a meeting of the Federation of European Cancer Societies that indicated that first removing only one key node for testing was as accurate a predictor as cutting them all out.
The technique, known as sentinel node biopsy, is rapidly gaining recognition and is used quite widely in top cancer centers but has not been embraced by all cancer doctors.
"It's a little controversial. Certain opinion leaders feel it's not totally
established yet," said Larry Norton, chief of medical oncology at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City.
Harry Bartelink of the Netherlands Cancer Institute, also took a cautious view.
"Breast cancer is a slow, recurrent disease, so I would really like to see 10 years of follow-up to say it's safe," he said. "It would be better to remove all the nodes than the wrong one."
The status of the lymph glands is considered one of the most important indicators of prognosis and which treatment is best.
There are between 25 and 40 lymph nodes under each armpit and the location of the sentinel node — the first node to be invaded by cancer — varies from woman to woman.
To find the right node, a radioactive probe is injected into the breast, close to the tumor, and is carried by the lymphatic system into the sentinel node. The glow of the tracer guides surgeons to the correct node.
Doctors then remove the tagged node, and tests establish whether cancer is present and thus if removal of the rest of the lymph nodes and further treatment are necessary.
Anthrax cases may lead to more e-mails
The Associated Press
Hundreds of unused bulk-mail pitches sit in a box under a desk at Ultimate Software.
The anthrax scare forced the Weston, Fla., company that specializes in payroll and personnel programs to cancel a long-planned marketing campaign. Joanne Urbanik, the company's marketing director, is now looking to salvage sales by reviving the campaign on the Internet.
Across the country, businesses and individuals are rehinking their reliance on postal mail, giving additional impetus to growth in e-mail marketing, billing and other digital communication.
Urbanik said she would try to focus on individuals who have specifically agreed to receive e-mail offers. But some e-mail recipients might worry they'll also get bombarded by more unsolicited messages or spam.
"I grimly expect there will be people who hitchhike on the anthrax scare and say, 'For your convenience, we will spam you,'" said John Levine of the Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial E-Mail.
Bulk mail hasn't been the culprit in the anthrax cases, and the number of tainted letters is low, but Gartner analyst Scott Nelson said, "The key here is perception, and (consumers)
become afraid of unexplained packages."
Direct Marketing Association estimates that the anthrax scare will cost bulk mailers, who generated $528 billion in sales last year, at least $1 billion to $2 billion in lost sales.
The group said mailers should consider using e-mail or phone calls as well to alert consumers of postal mail on the way.
Yet Bob Wientzen, the group's chief executive, expects disruptions in direct mail to be temporary.
"E-mail is growing as a marketing tool, but it will grow as an additional channel, not as the only channel," he said.
So far, the anthrax scare hasn't resulted in drastic increases in email or drops in postal sales. But change could come gradually in the next weeks and months as mailers try to increase the likelihood of having their messages read.
Steven Schneider, a State University of New York professor who has been studying Internet use, said the anthrax scare shifts the tolerance level.
"When you go from worrying about a virus attacking your hard drive to a (bacteria) attacking your children," Schneider said, "people are more inclined to settle for damage to your hard drive."
U.S.forces strike head-on; prepare for Kabul attack
The Associated Press
BAGRAM, Afghanistan — U.S. jets struck Taliban front-line positions yesterday as the United States tried to pave the way for the opposition to advance on Kabul and other major cities.
In an appeal for Muslim support worldwide, the Taliban accused America of waging a campaign of "genocide."
"Our efforts clearly are to assist those on the ground occupy more ground," Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld said in Washington.
The president of neighboring Pakistan, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, said he hoped military operations in Afghanistan would be finished by mid-November, when the Muslim holy month of Ramadan began. Leaders throughout the Muslim world fear a backlash if operations continue against Muslim Afghanistan during Ramadan.
With the shift toward front-line targets, U.S. jets spared Kabul for the first time since the bombing was launched Oct. 7.
was admitted Oct. 17.
Opposition commanders were clearly pleased to see American jets striking Taliban positions and expressed hope there would be more attacks.
expressed hope that we would The United States has been reluctant to allow the opposition to enter Kabul until Afghan factions had agreed on a broad-based government to replace the Taliban.
Pakistan had been urging the United States to restrain the alliance, arguing that the ethnic minority Tajik and Uzbek-dominated coalition would never be accepted by the Pashtun majority, which forms the core of the Taliban.
The Taliban have insisted they remain firmly in control.

DURT OF SPECIAL More than 70 dachshunds participated in the Running of the Wieners, a dog race during the city's German Heritage Days.
Dogs were split in three divisions -Little Smokies, Frankfurters and Senior Sausages. The short-legged, long-bodied K-9s lumbered from one end of the 90-foot dirt track to the other.
The top two finishers in each division won trophies. All participants received a bag of dog food.

Promise: Kinsey has time to grow

Kinsey also showed that he would stand up to Kansas coaches if he thought it would help the team.
"I was telling Coach to go for it," Kinsey said of Allen's decision to punt on fourth and two late in the game. "But he wasn't hearing me."
Allen said Kinsey has continued to mix flashes of brilliance with lapses in judgment. Kinsey's ability to create big plays gave him the nod at quarterback instead of backup Zach Dyer, he said.
"He was up and down," Allen said of Kinsey's performance in the Missouri game, a 38-34 Kansas loss. "He made some great plays, but he also left people wide open."
Bishop had two years of grooming at Blinn Junior College before he entered the Big 12 Conference as a junior. Kinsey hasn't had that luxury. Also, Bishop's first three games were against lowly Northern Illinois, Ohio and Bowling

Celebrities wary of fan mail
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Fan mail that old barometer of an entertainer's popularity has become off-limits for many in Hollywood since the anthrax mail attacks in New York City, Washington and Florida.
Studios, networks and publicists say thousands of letters have been returned to sender or just set aside. Some celebrities have signed up with services that open fan mail for them; others have simply stopped opening mail.
"For the time being, we are just not opening fan mail. Just to be careful, we are putting it off for now," said publicist Pat Kingsley, who represents actor Tom Cruise, among others.
Thousands of unsolicited letters pour in to celebrities every week. Although most are declarations of admiration, precautions have long been taken to check for suspicious letters and packages.
"There is always a concern
with celebrity fan mail because it comes from unknown people. But anthrax has added a new element," said PMK publicist Tracy Shaffer, who represents such acts as singers Evan and Iaron.
The FBI has not received a specific threat related to celebrity mail, said Cheryl Mimura, an FBI representative in Los Angeles.
"We haven't sent out any sort of advisory in Hollywood," she said.
Shaffer said some of her clients contacted her after a letter containing anthrax was received in the New York office of NBC anchor Tom Brokaw.
"We are directing our clients to use fan-mail services," she said. Such services open mail for celebrities and return photographs and autographs to fans.
Studio Fan Mail Services, one of the oldest and largest fan-mail services in the country, has begun
advising fans to send postcards rather than letters.
"most of the mail our clients get is from children," said owner Jack Tamkin. "We're telling them to write a postcard. That way they can still send their message."
Others suggest e-mail.
"We are returning fan letters and sending a note along asking them to correspond by e-mail," said Scott Rowe, Warner Bros. vice president of communications. Movie studios and TV networks receive the bulk of fan mail, and some have stopped delivering it.
Fan mail is important to many actors and celebrities.
"It's somebody that takes time to buy a card or get a piece of paper and pencil, collect some thoughts and put them on a piece of paper. That means something," said David Brokaw, who represents Bill Cosby among others.

Yankees bound for World Series
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The New York Yankees made a liar out of Lou Piniella.
The AL championship series never made it back to Seattle, as the Mariners manager promised, thanks to a 12-3 victory in Game 5 last night that gave the Yankees a chance to win their fourth straight World Series.
Yankees
SEATTLE
MARINERS
"I have never been prouder of a group of men in my life," manager Joe Torre told his team. "Whatever motivates us, I know the NY on your cap had a lot to do with it. This ballclub will be remembered by me forever."
MVP Andy Pettitt took a shutout into the seventh inning, Bernie Williams and Paul O'Neill homered, and the Yankees put the bumbling Mariners away early.
Next up for New York is Game 1 of the World Series against aces Curt Schilling, Randy Johnson and the Arizona Diamondbacks at Bank One Ballpark on Saturday night.
The Yankees jumped out to a
4-0 lead in the third inning thanks to third baseman David Bell's error and Williams' third homer in as many days.
"You need a different hero every night," said Derek Jeter. "Fortunately we have 25 heroes."
A team that looked old and tired in the first two games in the opening round against Oakland staged an improbable rally. One home run swing away from being swept, the Yankees showed a resiliency that endeared them more than ever to their fans in this shaken city.
"Down 2-0 to one of the best clubs in baseball, you never, never, never doubted yourselves." Torre said in toasting his team. "This city needed something like this. We needed something like this."
Mayor Rudolph Giuliani was among the 56,370 fans cheering Torre's Yankees so loudly the stadium shook. The celebration was a wonderful distraction from the heartache and devastation endured by this city following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
"I think it's as emotional as I've ever heard it at Yankee Stadium," Giuliani said. "This year I have to say the emotion adds something extra to it."
After Shane Spencer's sliding catch ended the game, Giuliani and Torre walked arm in arm to the mound to congratulate the celebrating players.
The Yankees of Derek Jeter, Williams and Pettitte became the first team since their predecessors in 1960-64 to win four straight pennants.
After Tino Martinez's three-run homer in the eighth inning, the fans chanted: "No Game 61 No Game 61"—as if Piniella and the Mariners didn't know that already.
"The one thought that did come to my mind strangely enough is this city had suffered a lot and let out a lot of emotion," Piniella said. "I felt good for them. I really did. That's a strange thought from a manager" who was getting whipped badly.
The Mariners joined baseball's only other 116-win team as a postseason dud. The 1906 Chicago Cubs lost the World Series to the crosstown White Sox in six games.
South six games.
"The amazing thing about baseball is no matter how many games you win, unless you win the World Series you're going to feel disappointment," Piniella said.
The Yankees showed a bit of their own bravado, not bringing their suitcases to the stadium for a cross-country flight that never took off.
"We wanted to be confident," Pettite said. "We wanted to get it done tonight."
Seattle's best shot in the game came in the first inning after
Mike Cameron reached on a one-out double that third baseman Scott Brosius appeared to lose sight of in the red-white-and-blue background of bunting hanging over the stands.
But with two outs, Edgar Martinez hit a soft liner to left field that Chuck Knoblauch made a shootop catch on to save a run. It was Knoblauch's miss on a similar play that turned Game 5 in Seattle's favor.
The fielding play that turned this game came in the third inning when the sure-handed Bell misplayed Brosius' grounder leading off the inning for an error.
Alfonso Soriano, whose ninth-inning homer won Game 4, lined a single to center field off Aaron Sele. After a sacrifice bunt, Jeter hit a sacrifice fly and gave New York the lead, and David Justice followed with an RBI double.
RBJ double.
Williams then hit a drive toward the monuments in left-center — where Yankee greats from past dynasties are honored — for his 16th postseason homer and made the score 4-0
O'Neill, likely in his final days before retirement, hit his second homer of the series to make it 5-0 in the fourth, and that was more than enough for Pettitte.
Eagles sail by Giants in fourth-quarter win
The Associated Press
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. The New York Giants let the Philadelphia Eagles hang around. Big mistake.
Donovan McNabb threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to James Thrash with 1:52 left in the game and gave Philadelphia a 10-9 victory against the Giants yesterday.
GIANTS

GIANTS
seems likely to challenge.
the touchdown followed a 27-yard punt by Rodney Williams that gave Philadelphia a first down at the New York 40 with 5:52 left. Six plays later, McNabb rolled to his right, bought time and found Thrash in the left corner of the end zone with Will Peterson chasing in futility.
As much credit goes to the Philadelphia defense, which held New York to four straight series of three downs and out. Then it forced a fumble by Giants quarterback Kerry Collins on New
York's final possession when Jeremiah Trotter stripped the ball and Brandon Whiting managed to recover before the ball went out of bounds.
New York had jumped to a 9-0 lead in the first half as it controlled the ball for 24:35 of the 30 minutes. But it couldn't get the ball in the end zone, settling for field goals of 24, 21, and 24 yards by Morten Andersen.
The defense, meanwhile,
sacked McNabb six times, two by
Michael Strahan, who now has
101/2 in his last four games. It
was the second one-point loss for
the Giants, who lost 15-14 in St.
Louis last week in a game in
which the Rams forced a tumble
as New York was driving for the
winning field goal.
It was the first time since 1930 that the Giants had lost consecutive one-point games.
The Giants took a 3-0 lead on Andersen's 24-yard field goal at the end of a 64 yard.
Then it was 9-0 on Andersen's second 24-yarder that followed another plodding drive. That march covered 61 yards on 13 plays and ate up another 8:28.
Late in the third quarter, the Eagles reached the New York 7 with the help of two penalties against the Giants. But McNabb's third-down pass was out of the end zone and David Akers' 25-yard field goal cut it to 9-3.

Recent loss leaves Allen with nothing but hope
Kansas' 38-34 loss to Missouri on Saturday did more than erase farfetched thoughts of a Jayhawk bowl game this season. Barring a brain fart by first-year athletics director Al Bohl, it almost certainly ensured that coach Terry Allen won't be invited back for a sixth season.
Of course, the loss might have been avoided had Allen not dropped the ball on the biggest coaching decision of his tumultuous career at Kansas.
His Jayhawks, valiantly fighting to move up one leg in the infamous Border War, trailed 38-54 with just more than five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. Kansas had the ball facing a third-and-two. Sophomore running back Reggie Duncan took the handoff and blasted ahead for not even remotely close to two yards.
Then came the moment of truth. Kansas faced a fourth-down play that loomed as the biggest moment in Border War history, the Jayhawks' season and Allen's career combined.
He could convert for the first down and prolong the drive, making it possible for Kansas to score a touchdown and come from behind for a dramatic home victory. Or get stuffed and turn the ball over to Missouri on downs, allowing the Tigers to, in all likelihood, run out the clock.
Allen, in a move that pretty much sums up his career at Kansas, opted to sidestep the chance to keep his job and in effect, handed himself his own pink slip. Kansas punted. Missouri ran out the clock, and that was that.
Game over. Season over. Bye, bye Allen.
After the game Allen said he thought Kansas could stop Missouri and get the ball back with enough time to drive for the winning score, which is downright absurd considering the Tigers had already racked up 38 points and 477 yards. True, Kansas' defense had returned two interceptions for touchdowns, but Missouri wasn't about to risk another catastrophe by putting the ball in the air so late in the game.
Allen's decision to kick it ranks right up there with recent history's other great debacles like the XFL and clear Pepsi.
Allen, always a nice guy, readily addresses his shortcomings as a coach and usually speaks with a frankness that often eludes other college coaches.
He said he was wrong for running Duncan up the middle on the third-down play, and pondered whether he made the right decision to punt on fourth down.
Allen has also unabashedly faced the uncertainty and turmoil surrounding his job status, openly acknowledging his place on the hot seat.
Too bad just being nice won't keep Allen employed or the Jayhawks from enduring another losing season.

Kindred quarterbacks
Kinsey comparable to Wildeat prodigy, Terry Allen says
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
When he first recruited Mario Kinsey, Kansas coach Terry Allen saw images of former Kansas State quarterback Michael Bishop.
Allen knew about Bishop all too well. As Kansas State's signal caller for two years, he led the Wildcats to a 22-3 record, including two lopsided wins against the Jayhawks. An athletic quarterback who beat teams with his swift feet as often as his rifle arm, Bishop was the runner-up to 1998 Heisman Trophy winner Ricky Williams.
Coming out of Texas, Bishop's home state, Kinsey shared similarities to the Wildcat prodigy. Kinsey's arm was
"He had that same kind of athleticism and strong arm," Allen said. "He could do some exciting things on the football field. We sure hope those comparisons can continue to come close."
After a red-shirt season last year, Kinsey has earned the 40 percent.

good enough to throw for nearly 5,000 yards in
his junior and senior seasons at La Vega High School in Waco, Texas. Kimsey's athleticism was evident when he played minutes for Roy Williams' Kansas basketball team last year as a true freshman. He left the basketball team in February, citing academics as the primary reason.
his junior and senior
After a red-shirt season last year, Kinsey has earned the starting quarterback job for Allen's team, finally giving coaches and fans a
glimpse of the talented prospect in action.
After five games, the comparisons with Bishop seem warranted.
Like Bishop, Kinsey has tossed for five touchdowns and two interceptions in his first five games and has a completion percentage slightly more than
What's more, the two have looked strikingly similar in the early part of their careers. Both stand 6-foot-1 and weigh just more than 200 pounds. Both struggled to contain their strong arms, often missing receivers high or overthrowing the deep routes. And both have shown a tendency to leave the pocket, preferring to run rather than pass, which has resulted in 133 yards of losses for Kinsey and cost Bishop more than 100 yards in his first season.
Both have shown the ability to lead. Bishop earned it by winning; Kinsey by his competitive nature. When the games have been close, Kinsey has been at his best. He led Kansas on a game-tying drive in the waning moments at Texas Tech, then scored a touchdown in overtime on a long scramble.

The Kansas soccer team hopes to bounce back from its two-game losing streak at its game at 3 p.m. today against Drury at Super Target Field.
The Jayhawks, 9-5 overall and 5-3 in Big 12 Conference play, were originally scheduled to play the Panthers on Sept. 16, but the game was postponed after the terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, D.C.
Coach Mark Francis said he hoped his team would be able to recover from tough losses to No. 17 Texas A&M and No. 12 Texas.
"Mentally, it's probably the biggest challenge," he said. "Especially since it's our third game in five days. It's a test of character that they're going to have to go through."
Despite three Big 12 losses, Francis said he remained optimistic about the team's chances in the Big 12 tournament, which starts Thursday, Nov. 8, in San Antonio.
"Our losses in conference this year are probably to the three best teams in the conference," he said. "I fancy our chances against any of those teams if we show up and play a 90-minute game we're capable of playing. It's not something that's beyond our reach."
Drury, a member of the Missouri Valley Conference, stands at 6-8 overall. The Panthers last played Sunday against Arkansas-Little Rock, winning 3-2 in overtime.
Drury is winless against Big 12 opponents this year, losing to Oklahoma. Oklahoma State and Missouri.
Junior midfielder Brooke Jones said the key to a victory today would be to look ahead.
"I think that we need to come out strong and keep playing how we've been playing," she said. "We can't dwell on the two losses."
- Kansas is 1-1 all-time against Drury. They last

Kansas finds strength in Ross when struggling
By Brent Briggeman
Kansan sportswriter
In Saturday's 38-34 loss to Missouri, Ross led Kansas with five receptions for 89 yards and also returned four punts for 110 yards.

both. In the two Kansas wins, he hardly played a factor.
"It does seem like I've been making some of my best plays when the team hasn't been playing well," Ross said. "But I'm just thankful to have these opportunities."
What? No bickering about the rest of the team not holding up its end of the bargain? No calling for the ball more often in critical situations?
"He's one of the best young men I've been around," said Kansas coach Terry Allen. "He's just as good as it gets when it comes to quality people."
Ask Ross what the highlight of his career has been, and he won't mention either of the two 77-yard touchdowns he hauled in against Oklahoma. He won't mention the 87 receiving yards against UCLA in a packed Memorial Stadium, and he won't mention a punt return for a touchdown last year against Missouri.

Fire officials city dispute roundabouts in Lawrence
By Brett Wiard and Brooke Wehner Special to the Kansan
Conflict concerning the city's roundabouts and their disputed function persists between the Lawrence Fire and Medical Departments and city planners.
Roundabouts are designed to maintain steady traffic flow, but the fire department is concerned because fire trucks have trouble maneuvering through the roundabouts.
"Fire trucks can't go with the flow of traffic," said Lawrence Fire Chief Jim McSwain. "They have to go the opposite way, which poses safety problems for the firemen and the public."
The fire department and city planners have discussed alternate routes, but city officials said they were unnecessary.
City engineer David Woosley said fire trucks could get through the roundabouts without a problem.
"The trucks can go with the flow of traffic at the two newly built roundabouts, and at the old one, there is one vehicle, the ladder truck, that has to go against the traffic flow," Woosley said.
Lawrence has three roundabouts. A new one is being built at 24th Terrace and Crossgate Drive and another one will be built this summer at 19th Street and Barker Avenue.
But McSwain said more non-visible issues existed, such as the comfort of patients being transported in ambulances.
"The roundabout causes them more pain and discomfort because of the swerving motion," McSwain said.
Lawrence resident Lindsey Frye said she saw a fire truck maneuvering through the roundabout at Monterey Way and Harvard Road. She said the truck had to go against the flow of traffic, causing a hazard for drivers trying to get through the roundabout.
roundabout Resident Nathan Haley said the roundabout at Eighth and Michigan streets wasn't well lit.
"People have crashed into it and there are marks to prove it," he said.
Haley also questions the cost-effectiveness of the roundabouts, which can range from $100,000 to $150,000.
"They are a waste of resources," he said.
But Woolsey said a roundabout cost the same as a traffic signal.
He also defended the effectiveness of the roundabouts, especially in comparison with traffic lights.
"They are safer and they can handle more traffic than a traffic signal," he said. "There are substantially less accidents, and the accidents that do occur are usually non-fatal and even non-injury."
non-injury Some Lawrence residents agree that roundabouts are safe alternatives to traffic lights.
to traffic rights. Kell Sturgis, Fayetteville, Ark., senior, said he approved of the roundabouts and thought they were good for traffic flow.
"I like the roundabouts because they make people slow down, especially the one on Harvard and Monterey Way," Sturgis said. "I also think they look nice and add to the community."

Harassment policy in question
A revised student code would reflect standards of Supreme Court ruling
By Eve Lamborn
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas policy on racial and ethnic harassment is being revised to avoid challenges about its constitutionality.
University officials and an expert on constitutional law agreed that the policy needed to be revised so it would pass constitutional scrutiny in light of a 1992 Supreme Court decision.
violence or lawless action, "fighting words" intended to incite an immediate breach of peace, and obscenity are not protected. This type of speech can be restricted, said Richard Levy, a professor of law and an expert on constitutional law.
Not all types of speech are protected by the First Amendment. Speech that incites
Levy said the University's current policy against racial and ethnic harassment defined harassment in terms of speech not protected by the First Amendment.
The University made discriminatory or harassing speech directed at minorities a violation — but now it wants to revise the student code so that harassment is redefined to mirror what the courts would say passes constitutional scrutiny.
futuring The 1992 Supreme Court decision
R. A.V. v. the City of St. Paul, Minn., involved a city ordinance that banned the display of symbols that aroused anger in people based on race, color, creed, religion or gender. A teen-ager who allegedly burned a cross in the yard of an African-American family was charged under the ordinance.
under the ordinance. The Supreme Court ruled the ordinance violated the First Amendment because it punished speech based on specific messages directed at minority groups. The Supreme Court struck down the ordinance because it restricted speech from one point of view.
Levy said the theory of free speech was one of the most important ideas in government.
"The government can't come down on
one side of the truth and exclude other views," he said. "All ideas should be statable."
Based on Supreme Court precedent, the University's policy against racial and ethnic harassment could present a constitutional problem, Levy said.
He said public debate would determine the validity of ideas, but only if all ideas were allowed to be debated.

"If the University were to discipline someone using these categories, the person might have a constitutional claim. If someone wanted to say something, but felt chilled or discouraged, they might have a constitutional claim."

Message of men power falls on absent ears
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
Dennis Dailey said it was easy to figure out why no one attended his discussion on men's misuse of power in relationships last night in Wescoe Hall
power in relationships has taught
"It wasn't because they were overwhelmed or couldn't find the room," said Dailey, professor of social welfare. "It's because I think a lot of men knew intuitively what exactly the meeting would be about. They were too frightened, too confused, too defended to take the risk. I understand that."
too defended to take the task. The event was part of the University of Kansas' Sexual Violence Awareness Week program. Kathy Rose-Mockry, program director for the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, one of the event's sponsors, said she was pleased organizers tried to have the program even though no one attended.

the Campainie. Dailey suggested last night's topic to program organizers because he said many men struggled with how to be in a relationship where power and dominance were not an issue.
"Men have difficulty living in a relationship with women where power is equitably distributed because, historically, men have been told to be in charge," Dailey said.
He also said a variety of decent, honorable, caring and religious young men had pushed women to be sexual against their will.
"I believe both deserve equally to heal their wounds," Dailley said. "If 20 men had showed up, one of the questions I would have asked was if anyone had forced a woman to be sexual against their will. It's an extraordinarily tough question most want to run from."
Dailey said if there were 1,000 male faculty members at the University, a minimum of 200 had forced a woman to be sexual against her will.

Twin towers missing list will likely decrease
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — After more than a month of cross-checking and detective work, police and city officials believe they are closing in on a reliable figure for the number of people missing and dead in the World Trade Center attack.
Yesterday, the number of missing and dead reported by the city stood at more than 4,700, including those in the trade center and those aboard the two hijacked airliners that crashed into the twin towers.
If anything, the number will drop. For example, Campisi said he expects police will continue to discover that some families who filed early missing-person reports neglected to notify police when loved ones turned up safe. Duplicate missing-person reports and overestimates from some foreign consulates also contribute to the swings.
The city's total as of yesterday consisted of 4,339 missing, plus 425 identified dead.
Despite the fluctuations, Mike Byrne,
deputy coordinating officer for the Federal Emergency Management Agency, praised the city's efforts to catalog the missing and dead.
"The work that's being done is the best and most capable that is available on the planet today." he said.
The number of missing stood at 5,422 on Sept. 20, and ballooned to 6,453 three days later as the police database was flooded with reports from a dozen sources, including family members, the Red Cross, airlines, employers and law enforcement agencies.
An ongoing Associated Press tally of the victims at the trade center, including those on both the planes, stood at 2,553 late yesterday. Of those, 1,777 had been confirmed dead by a coroner or declared dead by a court; 329 were reported dead by employers, airlines or families, or had memorial services; and 847 were reported missing by families, employers or other officials. Names on the AP tally came from various official sources.
British may relax marijuana laws
The Associated Press
Home Secretary David Blunkett said reclassifying marijuana, or cannabis, as a "Class C drug" — putting it in the same category as anabolic steroids — would not be the same as decriminalization or legalization. However, such a change would mean that those possessing marijuana would not be subject to arrest.
LONDON — Britain's marijuana laws should be relaxed to give police more time to battle harder drugs, the nation's top law enforcement official said yesterday.
"Cannabis would remain a controlled drug and using it a criminal offense ... but it would make clearer the distinction between cannabis and Class A drugs like heroin and cocaine." Blunkett told a House of Commons
committee meeting.
commit meeting "It is time for an honest and common sense approach focusing effectively on drugs that cause most harm," he added.
Blunkett's statement came amid an intensifying political debate about marijuana. Senior figures from all three major political parties have now urged a review of cannabis laws.
Police said seven out of 10 drug arrests were for marijuana and that processing a marijuana-related arrest created several hours of police paperwork and usually ended with a small fine.
Changing the marijuana laws would require approval by Parliament. The proposal will first be discussed with senior police officers and the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs, a Home Office spokesman said. A final decision is expected in the spring.

Defendants in strip club case sentenced to probation, fines
ATLANTA — Eight defendants who agreed to plea bargains in the federal racketeering case that closed one of the nation's most profitable strip clubs were sentenced to probation.
Former dancer Jacklyn "Diva" Bush, club managers Norbert Calder and Ray Cicola, and accountant Larry Gleit pleaded guilty in August to concealing a felony in the midst of the months-long trial targeting the Gold Club in Atlanta.
Bush, who according to testimony was paid to have sex with celebrity athletes who visited the club, was given three years of probation, a $1,000 fine and community service.
U. S. District Judge Willis Hunt sentenced Cicola and Gleit to two years of probation and fines of more than $2,000 yesterday. Calder got three years of probation and a $3,000 fine.
Former club manager Lyle Goodman was sentenced to two years of probation, a $2.000 fine and community service.
Four other employees were given probation, two of them were also fined.

Commissioners voice their opinions about trafficway
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
In a surprising turn of events, the Lawrence City Commission refrained last night from voting on a preferred alignment for the South Lawrence Trafficway.
Instead, the commissioners voiced their opinions for the record, opinions that also surprised the crowd.
In a last minute switch, Commissioner Jim Henry decided the alignment option south of the Wakarusa River would be best for the city. Henry was originally expected to vote for the 32nd Street alignment. He was one of three Commissioners who supported an alignment south of the Wakarusa.
But after a joint meeting of
the Lawrence City Commission and the Douglas County Commission, and nearly two hours of public comment, Henry said a 32nd Street alignment would not withstand the test of time.
He said it would work for a while, but eventually more money would have to be spent to move the trafficway farther south as Lawrence grew in that direction.
Commissioner David Dunfield and Mayor Mike Rundle also supported an alignment south of the Wakarusa.
The Kansas Department of Transportation provided three options for the trafficway to the Commission: a "no build" option that would leave the trafficway incomplete, a 32nd Street alignment that runs south
of the Haskell Indian Nations University wetlands, and a 42nd Street alignment that would run south of the Wakarusa and south of the Haskell and Baker University wetlands.
The Commission was to decide on a preferred option and report back to KDOT. Instead, KDOT will receive a letter from the Commission expressing each commissioner's opinion.
The trafficway is intended to connect U.S. Interstate 70 with Kansas Highway 10 without running through the city. This would prevent traffic buildup on 23rd Street by diverting traffic around town. It has been debated since the late 1980s.

Student senators tutor peers for a fee
Bv Luke Daley
Kansan staff writer
Students who are struggling in a difficult chemistry class or rigorous math course need to look no farther than Student Senate.
Fourteen Senators are providing tutoring services in subjects such as accounting, chemistry, math and English to their struggling peers. While fees range from $10 to $36 an hour, some Senators will negotiate on a price. The tutoring provides them with extra income along with publicity for the Senate.
Michael Roessler, graduate senator, said he and other senators provided tutoring to any students needing help in certain subjects.
He said he wanted to help students who had trouble getting tutoring through the University.
"I just figured that would be something that Student Senate could do," Roessler said. "I've gotten a significant amount of business from it."
Roessler said he tutored in math, statistics and accounting, providing him with a good
source of income from the four students he tutored.
"I charge a flat $20 per hour, but some will charge more for extra people," Rosseler said.
Adam Obley, finance committee chairman, said he was available to tutor students in biology, chemistry and English. He said so far this semester he had tutored students in biology and chemistry.
He said he did not usually charge students for his tutoring services, as long as they met him for tutoring during his Senate office hours.
Angela Rodriguez, a sophomore from Colombia, said the tutoring services provided by Senate members would be helpful to students if prices remained reasonable.
"You have to think that you are dealing with the students, and they can't all pay for those services," Rodriguez said. "I think that everybody needs help with the basic subjects like math or foreign languages or English."
Subjects offered:
Roessel said he hadn't had time to advertise his tutoring services around campus this semester. He said he would be open to tutoring a few more students.
■ Accounting
■ Biology
■ Chemistry
■ Computer Science
■ Economics
■ English
■ German
■ Math
■ Music Theory
■ Physics
Polish
Political Science
Psychology
Sociology
Statistics

"Besides meeting with the tutor, they really have to try and do it on their own," Roessler said. "That's the best way to get the most for the money."
Haunted house to bring terror, fun to Lawrence
By Brent Briggeman Kansan staff writer
For the second year in a row, Lawrence thrill seekers will have a chance to get their horror fix.
The Terror Haunted House will run from Friday through Monday, Oct. 29 at Holcom Recreation Center, 2700 W. 27th St. Doors open at 8:00 p.m. and remain open until midnight each night.
With a cost of $5 for adults and children, the Terror Haunted House will provide a guided trip through six or seven theme rooms, said Danielle Swain, a partner with Saturday Nite Main Event, the group sponsoring the house.
One room will feature an electrocution, and another one will feature a "crazed psycho."
Several KU students expressed interest in the haunted house.
"I haven't celebrated Halloween in a long time," said Kristen Allen, a Topeka junior. "I've always kind of wanted to go to a haunted house, but I've heard they are expensive. This one doesn't sound too bad."
Ryan Carroll, Noel, Mo., freshman, said haunted houses were part of his Halloween tradition.
"I try to go to at least one a year," Carroll said. "I didn't know that Lawrence had any options, so I'm sure I'll give it a try."
The Terror Haunted House provides a chance for Saturday Nite Main Event to connect with community youth. The organization, a partner with the Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department, sponsors lock-ins throughout the year for kids from fourth through eighth grades.
"We try to keep the kids involved year round," Swain said. "We used to have a costume party at Halloween, but since Lawrence didn't have any haunted houses, we thought we'd start one."
Swain said the house was aimed at a family audience, but would be fun for college students as well.

DESIGNING GRADE
Dear editors.
Dear editors,
I was disappointed with the article titled "Design students give department poor grade" that ran Wednesday. I attended the meeting and not only was the chairwoman misquoted, but the title of the article had a negative tone that we were consciously avoiding.
We arranged that meeting to state what we see happening, then discuss possible solutions to the problems. It was not "us" blaming "them." No one who attended the meeting would give the department a "bad grade," because that assumes that we have passed judgment and moved on.
The students of the visual communication department have by no means given up. We are working with the dean and faculty to find ways to continue to be involved in determining the future of the department, because we believe that the students are as important as the faculty in making the department a success.
As for misquoting the chairwoman Lois Greene, that is just carelessness. Greene did not say "Education looks bleak." She said just the opposite, in agreement with Montgomery. What caused her to hold her head was that we, the visual communication students, are unsure about our education and our future. I am sure Greene had some calls about what she is quoted as having said, and I am sure she did not enjoy having to explain your mistake.
EXPLAINLY Overall. I thought the article covered what was discussed accurately, but the headline and the misquote are unfortunate mistakes that misrepresented the mood of the meeting. It did make for a good discussion of appropriateness in my class that day.

Filtering of Free for All means not all opinions get printed
Readers who call to impart their wisdom on the Free for All usually don't know what happens to their message after they hang up the phone. How do certain Free for All messages make it in the Kansan while others do not? And is there anything you can do to increase your chances of seeing your words in print?
The Free for All averages anywhere from 50 to 100 calls a day. A news clerk transcribes messages and then passes them on to opinion editors Erin Adamson and Brendan Woodbury. They then decide which messages make it onto the page. Most messages end up being posted online at www.kansan.com
Adamson said she and Woodbury tried to make the Free for All representative of all the calls in a particular day. If 30 percent of the calls in one day are about the Kansas football team, then they try to make 30 percent of the messages printed in the Free for All about the football team.
Usually, if you see several messages about a particular issue or person in the Free for All, chances are there were plenty more about the same topic. Woodbury said there really was no particular message that would make it into print over another. However, the more

The Free for All is usually checked in the morning and messages that appear in the paper are from two days earlier. Most people call in the evening hours after class, late at night while studying or during the weekend while partying, Adams said.
Some readers have called the Free for All multiple times within an hour to set up a joke or tell a funny story. Other callers opt not to speak and instead leave odd noises — bodily and otherwise.
The Free for All is not representative of what the student body thinks. At best, it represents only a small group of students. According to Woodbury, the same students tend to call repeatedly. You have to admit, however, that no matter how moronic most of the messages appear to be, we do have some
creative or abnormal the message, the more likely it is to be picked.
Commentary
creative people on campus.
The Free for All, which was introduced to the Kansan by former editor Nathan Willis, has been around since Fall 2000. Since then, it has created quite a buzz on campus, becoming one of the most popular parts of the Kansan.
Just recently, that buzz has spread beyond campus and onto the pages of the Pitch Weekly. In its latest "Best of Kansas City" edition, the Pitch rated Free for All as the best daily newspaper column.
The entertainment tabloid wrote a brief description of Free for All and cited some example comments such as "Hello children, I'm Bobo the sea cow, and I like to do stuff." The description ended, "It's good to know college hasn't changed much."
It's hard to say if that is necessarily a "good" thing, but at least it keeps us entertained. One could only imagine what would happen to our University ranking if some of the students who called Free for All directed some of that creative energy into their classes.

Learn about the roots of violence
What is it about the issue of domestic violence and violence between intimate partners that makes most of us look down at our shoes or get incredibly defensive when anyone begins talking about it? (Better known as the, "Hey, look. I have nothing to do with this. It's them over there," syndrome.)
It's not that most people think domestic violence is an acceptable practice. Instead, domestic violence seems to make most of us nervous because it challenges some basic assumptions about our personal lives. It challenges our assumption that our homes are always safe, sacred and far removed from the harsh realities of crime, victimization and war-like scenarios of survival and self-defense. Domestic violence challenges our assumption that love is about safe space, open communication and commitment, where the most difficult issue is to figure out who's turn it is to walk the dog.
For many, the overwhelming majority of whom are women and children, relationships and homes are neither safe nor comfortable. And no matter how you look at the issue, if you go by statistics presented by the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics' National Crime Victimization Survey or the neo-conservative National Family Violence Survey, facts are facts — women and children are the primary targets of intimate violence. In fact, women and children are the most affected victims in any systematic form of perpetrated violence, whether it's within our homes in

this country or within the context of international conflict and war.
Intimate violence doesn't occur because men are inherently more powerful than women, naturally more violent than women or better equipped to act as protectors of the family and state. In fact, recent socio-biological evidence suggests that there may be more differences within the sexes than between them. And it is certainly not the case that this violence continues because the movement to end it has been so focused on women that we have forgotten about "our men."
We can all become better informed about the nature, context and source of cycles of intimate violence and sexual assault in order to end it. With its focus on structural barriers that prevent effective change and personal stories to put a face on the issue, the events during Domestic Violence Awareness Month encourage us to think about how to better understand this crime in relation to other acts of violence that occur in the United States.
October also highlights movements such as "Womyn Take Back the Night" (Oct. 25, 2001) and the work of women in the 1960s and 70s who founded a network of domestic violence shelters and safe houses for survivors of violence. This month enables us to deal with the issue of intimate violence head on, without shuffling our shoes or passing off responsibility.
The numbers counter the opinion that feminists should stop whining and adopt the cooler "post-feminist" label. The bigger questions are why does this violence continue? How should we think about and analyze it? And most importantly, what can we do to stop it?
ing," the U.S. Census Bureau Current Population Survey notes that middle class, working professional women make 60 to 85 percent of men's earnings for comparable work. Women are also 40 percent more likely to live beneath the poverty line. In this group, 83 percent have two to four dependents in contrast to 17 percent of men. Moreover, women are less likely to vote or run for government office. And when they do run, they are less likely to be elected.
Domestic violence continues because of a combination of factors that include women's lack of economic and political equality and lack of access to forming and implementing social policies. Contrary to those who suggest that men are actually the disenfranchised victims of "feminists' bicker-

FROM THE COVER
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5A
Policy: Revisions being considered
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Danilee Dempsey-Swopes, interim director of the office of equal opportunity, said information about whether anyone had been disciplined under the policy was not readily available yesterday.
"We've investigated some cases, but I don't know if they've resulted in discipline," she said.
Rose Marino, associate general counsel, said the University's policy was undergoing revision.
"The University's racial and ethnic harassment policy was initially written before these cases came out," she said. The University's policy was written in 1990, two years before the R.A.V. case.
"Certainly, First Amendment concerns have been noted," she said.
Dempsey-Swopes said the harassment policy was being brought in line with current constitutional rulings. The new policy should pass constitutional scrutiny in light of the R.A.V. case because it would have a revised
definition of harassment, she said.
"The University can still control speech if it interferes with the ability to work or learn," she said. "As always, you can regulate the time, place and manner of speech."
Other revisions to the policy will change the procedure for handling complaints and allow the administration to investigate, negotiate and mediate before holding a hearing, Dempsey-Swopes said.
She said revision of the policy began about three years ago, and she said she hoped the new policy would be in place sometime during the next school year.
Justin Mills, student body president, said he and other student senators worked in 1999 to broaden the University's policy. He said the senators wanted to expand the policy to make speech to which someone took offense a violation, even if that was not the intent of the speaker.
"It's important that students feel comfortable at the University," he

Danilee Dempsey-Swopes interim director of the office of equal opportunity
said. "When you have incidents of hate crimes and hate speech, it makes people feel uncomfortable."
He pointed to harassment directed at Arab students on campus after the Sept. 11 attacks as an example of speech that should be regulated.
"Students were feeling uncomfortable and there was nothing they could do," he said.

invasions.
Instead, America did respond in that manner, and Bayard de Volo said military strikes wouldn't necessarily lessen global attacks but would increase support within Afghanistan for the Taliban.
Haskinson said the KU Greens decided to organize the fast and teach-in after already organizing peace rallies and marches. She said students at Northwestern University in Chicago and Humboldt State University in California were also fasting yesterday and today.
"We don't think the bombing is appropriate in the current situation where millions are facing death," she said about the
situation of the citizens of Afghanistan. "The situation was bad before Sept. 11. The situation is worse now, and our concern is with them."
The first professor on today's schedule is David Gottlieb, professor of law, who will speak from 10 to 11 a.m. about the obligation of peacemakers to honor victims and the truth of violence. Maia Kipp, lecturer for Slavic languages and literatures, will speak from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. about Islamic Folk Wisdom and Soviet Russia.
Students will watch and discuss the Iranian film Color of Paradise at 3 p.m. and will observe a half-hour of silence during the last 30 minutes of the fast.

Lawrence to transform more waste into compost
By Amy White Special to the Kansan
By late spring, the city of Lawrence hopes to be up to its knees in compost.
That's when the new composting facility is scheduled to open. The plant, at 1750 E. 11th St., will handle more waste faster and more efficiently, said Mollie Mangerich, operations supervisor for the waste reduction and recycling division.
The plant is a response to the city's successful recycling efforts. The Lawrence community recycles 29 percent of its trash, which is greater than both state and national averages. It hopes to expand its efforts by composting more material, including wood byproducts.
Although the plant will double in size, it will not be funded by taxpayers. Mangerich said the division would pay the initial $65,000 in start up costs.
$63,000 in startup capital. "We budget ahead in advance," Mangerich said. "It's the enterprise fund that pays the budget on our city's recycling division, so we don't have to go back and ask the people for more money to build this."
The Lawrence Public Works department's plan for a new facility will require the cooperation of
Justin Flowers, Dodge City sophomore, does yard work around his rented house and said he would use the new facility for more than just leaves and grass.
"It's in our best interest to try to save that money," she said. "Instead, we can compost it, and it costs very little to compost. Then we end up with a beneficial, reusable resource that we can use on city projects."
"We trim some bushes and ivy
only projects.
The solid waste division saved $130,000 in landfill fees recycling. Grass clipping and leaves, which are the only materials composted now, made up more than $99,000 of those savings.
The solid waste department has some long-term goals for the new site and its composting program, including plans for an education program. Mangerich said that waste reduction and recycling primarily wanted to educate people on how to handle their yard waste, either by "grasscycling," composting on their own, or bagging it in paper.
The existing composting site can't handle some of the new materials the public works department wants to add. In addition to the grass clippings and leaves, the public works department plans to collect and compost wood pallets and packages from local businesses, wood waste from construction and bushy waste from residential areas. Wood packaging is 10 percent of commercial solid waste.
Mangerich said she did not expect the fees for waste pickup to increase any more than the usual 1 to 2 percent. The current rate is $10.39 per month.
We mow," Flowers said. "Yeah, definitely, I'd use it."
Because the new site will handle more waste, the city can spend less money on sending trash to the landfill, Mangerich said.

Mary Klayder, English lecturer,
already "grasscycles" her yard by
letting the clippings fall back into
the lawn and fertilize itself, but
she said she would like to see the
recycling program increased.
"We would definitely like anything that would help environmentally," Klayder said. "I think this community would be supportive of anything like that."
After the new site is running, the division would like to make the compost available to the public, either through sales of a pre-bagged product or a bag-your own operation, Mangerich said.

Investors turn to real estate
The Associated Press
NEW YORK - With housing prices falling and the economic recovery still elusive, real estate mutual funds might appear to be the last place investors would turn to in a volatile market.
But analysts say real estate can be a good buy for those looking for dividend income and some variety in their holdings. They caution, however, that real estate funds aren't risk-free and should only be a small part of most investors' holdings.
"There's opportunity for profit in real estate, and these funds can help in diversal diversification of one's portfolio," said Lipper Research analyst Jeff Tjornehoj. "But if you're not familiar with real estate, then you should definitely step cautiously and read the prospectus."
Analysts like the funds because their performance tends to be relatively independent of the stock market. In times of uncertainty, for example, people might be less willing to invest in stocks, preferring instead to pay down their mortgages or buy real estate, which is viewed as a more concrete asset.
But real estate funds carry some hazards. First, they are sector funds, which by definition are riskier because of their focus on a singular segment of business. If real estate turns down, there's no other investment in the fund to cushion any losses.
Second, the future of real estate is uncertain, and opinions now about the wisdom of investing now. Some
rear the weakness in the economy could hurt real estate values. A particular risk are funds with significant holdings in hotels and other leisure properties, where revenues depend on consumers' willingness to take trips. With Americans fearful of more terrorist attacks, those businesses are hurting.
If you want to invest in real estate, many financial experts favor funds over buying an individual REIT — or real estate investment trust, the financial term that describes most real estate investments.
Investors also need to read the prospectus of any real estate funds, as they would for any investment, to make sure they know what they're buying.
Cop faces charges in man's death
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — Prosecutors told a jury yesterday that a white police officer was too aggressive while taking an unarmed black man into custody and caused his death with a choke hold.
But defense attorneys said Officer Robert Jorg didn't choke Roger Owensby Jr., who was stopped by police Nov. 7 for questioning about drug trafficking.
Jorg's trial on charges of felony involuntary manslaughter and misdemeanor assault come one month after a judge acquitted another officer on all charges in the shooting of another unarmed black man who was running from police.
Jorg, 30, is the first on-duty Cincinnati police officer ever charged with a felony offense in a killing.
"You will hear testimony that, for a few minutes, he went too far and crossed the line that officers are not allowed to cross," said assistant Hamilton County prosecutor Mark Plemeier.
But Jorg's attorney, R. Scott Croswell, told jurors that his client did not mean to hurt Owensby, 29.
("jorg) secured Mr. Owensby's head for the purpose of protecting him from being hurt as he lay face-down on the pavement," he said. "At no time did my client choke Mr. Owensby."
As jury selection began Monday, about 75 demonstrators rallied against police brutality. The crowd chanted, "No justice, no peace, no
racist police."
Owensby died after officers caught him, sprayed him with a chemical irritant, handcuffed him and put him in a police vehicle, investigators said.
A coroner concluded that Owensby died of asphyxiation caused by "a choke hold gone bad" or the weight of officers on him as he was arrested. Croswell said he planned to challenge the coroner's findings.
Jorg could be sentenced up to five years in prison if convicted on both charges.
Another officer charged with misdemeanor assault in Owensby's death goes on trial today. Patrick Caton, 35, faces up to six months in jail if convicted.
Shooting suspects found in Utah shed after police chase
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — A father and son suspected of shooting two hunters to death were captured yesterday, authorities said.
The suspects had allegedly stolen the hunters' pickup truck and fled after the shooting Sunday near the Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area on the Utah-Wyoming line.
terday, both Lewis Heffelfinger, 53, and his son Michael Hefelfinger, 23, both of Albuquerque, N.M., were finding in a shed near a highway in central Utah. They surrendered without incident, a Carbon County dispatcher said.
The bodies of the victims, Brad Goss, who was in his 20s, and Kelly Carter, 27, were discovered by the third member of their hunting party, Sage McCormick.
Police did not speculate on a motive for the shootings, nor did they offer details on how the suspects were identified.
A few hours after the shootings, police disabled the stolen truck with road spikes near the central Utah town of Price, but the suspects escaped on foot into a heavily wooded area. Police recovered two rifles and a handgun from the truck. Helper Police Chief George Zamantakis the men shot at police during the chase, but officers did not return fire.
Officers with dogs searched the woods Monday night after a man reported he had given the suspects food. The man told police the suspects appeared tired and unarmed.
The Heffelfingers were being kept in Carbon County Jail pending charges of attempted homicide on a peace officer and felony evading. Sheriff James Cordova said his office was waiting for Daggett County to file homicide charges in the hunters' deaths.
deaths.
McCormick's brother, Dusty McCormick, said Carter and Gross had dropped his brother off at an ridge before heading down another nearby ridge.
He said his brother heard a rapid succession of gunfire, went to where the other men had been hunting and found them dead.
Carter was the father of three children.

Dracula Park planned
The Associated Press
SIGHISOARA, Romania — Mist shrouds the Casa Vlad Dracul, where tourists sink their teeth into bloody chops drizzled with Dracula sauce — red and spicy — and wash it down with bottles of Vampire cabernet.
At the medieval main square, pallid-faced actors film a scene for "Dracula Resurrection," a new B movie. Down in the dungeon-like Dracula video arcade, teen-agers zap virtual vampires while their elders belly up to the bar for a Bloody Mary.
Bleeding the Dracula myth for all it's worth is a way of life in the Transylvanian birthplace of Vlad the Impaler, the cruel 15th-century count whose penchant for turning his enemies into human scarecrows was the inspiration for Bram Stoker's legendary vampire.
Lying among those forests are the fabled killing fields where Vlad executed up to 100,000 people — mostly Turks — by impaling them on stakes.
But for the town of 38,000,the stakes are about to get much higher.
Construction begins next spring on Dracula Park, a $30 million dollar theme park people here hope will bring cash and celebrity to a corner of Romania that seems frozen in time.
"This town is numb—it's a city asleep. Dracula will wake it up," said Emilia Butnariu, 76, who barely gets by on the $50 a month she earns selling paintings of Sighisoara's sagging fieldstone houses and alleys.
The Disneyesque project is to be built by a consortium of German companies. Sighisoara's mayor, Dorin Danesan, said the first phase should open sometime in 2003. Danesan said the year-round park will feature amusement rides, a golf course, a Gothic castle wired with spooky effects, a zoo, horseback riding, restaurants and shops.
There are even plans for an international center of vamprology.
"We don't want it to be a
kitsch," he said. "But this government wants to do business. We're not afraid to exploit the Dracula myth to save a town that's a national monument."
The government has promised to improve Sighisoara's roads, electricity and waterworks and renovate its walled, pastel-colored old town, which dates to 1280. The town is one of Europe's few medieval fortresses where people still live.
Residents expect to see 3,000 new jobs for a region battered by 50 percent unemployment, and talk excitedly of as many as 1 million visitors a year. Already, new hotels are going up, and property prices have soared.
prices as the bat flies, Sighisoara is 180 miles northwest of Bucharest. The park will be four miles outside town in the brooding fir forests where bears, wolves and wild dogs still prowl and howl.
The Associated Press
THE HAGUE, Netherlands In a blow to prosecutors, the Yugoslav war crimes tribunal overturned the convictions yesterday of three Bosnian Croats sentenced in one of the worst massacres of the Bosnian war.
Calling the trial "critically flawed," the panel ordered the three defendants immediately released and reduced the sentences for two others.
of a lower court and acquitted the defendants.
The five were convicted in January 2000 of participating in the 1993 massacres in Ahmici, where more than 100 Muslim civilians, including dozens of women and children, were killed.
It was the first time since the court was created in 1993 that an appeals chamber of the U.N. tribunal threw out the convictions
Within hours of the ruling, two brothers and their cousin were hustled from the U.N. detention center in Scheveningen, a seaside suburb of The Hague, where they had been held for four years.
Relatives of the defendants hugged each other and cried out in joy at the announcement of the acquittals. The brothers threw their fists in the air in triumph as tears welled in their eyes.
The Ahmici case, based on 1995 indictments, was one of the first that went to trial in The Hague, and reflected the inexperience of the court in dealing with the traumatic testimony of survivors and witnesses of the horrific Balkan wars.
Calling the defendants victims of a "miscarriage of justice," the
judges ordered the immediate release of brothers Zoran and Mirjan Kupreskic and their cousin Vlatko Kupreskic. They had been sentenced to 10, eight and six years imprisonment respectively.
The ruling cut the 15-year sentence of Drago Jospipovic to 12 years, and trimmed the 25-year sentence of Vladimir Santic to 18 years.
The appellate court criticized the prosecutors, calling the indictments "too general and vague."
The ruling was a severe setback to Chief Prosecutor Carla Del Ponte, who was in Yugoslavia yesterday pressing the governments of Serbia and Montenegro to surrender more wanted war crimes suspects.

Feds, Drug Makers Respond to Bioterror
The government and business community responded to the blotter threat.
For its part, Bayer AG said it is exploring whether to ask some rival drug companies to produce some of its antibiotic Cipro to make certain an adequate supply of the drug is available in case of widespread anthrax attacks. Meanwhile, some drug companies are planning to introduce over-the-counter home anthrax tests. The kits could be in stores across the country as early as Thanksgiving.
Companies Scramble To Test for Anthrax
A growing number of worried U.S. businesses are paying private companies to test their workplaces for anthrax.
Some of these companies have received no threats, and thus are a low priority for law-enforcement officials. In other cases, even though police and fire teams have already performed tests, corporations want to buy additional peace of mind. Anthrax anxiety has kept the phone ringing at several small environmental-services companies, which normally spend their time cleaning up mundane chemical spills.
Malls Introduce New Security Plans
From erecting concrete barricades at entrances to increasing foot patrols, the nation's shopping centers are shoring up defenses against terrorist attacks.
THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 22, 2001
For example, at the 145 malls managed by General Growth Properties—including Virginia's Tysons Galleria shopping center—all delivery vehicles will have their manifests checked to make sure they have legitimate business on the premises. Outside service workers must show identification and require escorts to work sites. Retailers and janitors at the company's malls are receiving training on spotting unusual items. And even more security measures are planned.
EBay Could Gain If Retailers Tumble
As many retailers reel from the slowdown in consumer spending, eBay Inc., remarkably, continues to thrive. Now it appears the company could actually benefit if retailers have a crummy Christmas.
EBay is increasingly being used by traditional retailers, manufacturers and liquidators seeking to reduce inventories and sell refurbished or returned goods, though the bulk of its sales still come from individual sellers and small businesses. If holiday sales are disappointing at the malls, eBay could become an efficient online channel for moving unsold stock. The big question then is whether demand from buyers will remain strong on the site.
Holidays Could Be Bright for E-tailers.
Holiday e-commerce sales are widely expected to grow again this year despite shopper's jittery nerves and the slumping economy. Online sales in the U.S. for November and December are projected to be 20% to 40% higher than last year's holiday
Stockpiling?
Cumulative percentage change in the number of Cipro pills dispensed. Nationwide, the number has risen to 5,568,396 from 3,931,061; in New York, to 491,306 from 162,012.

...But Airlines Face A Travel Slump
sales, according to a number of forecasts. Some buyers will turn to online shopping as a way to avoid crowded public places like shopping malls, while others may balk at relying on mail and delivery services due to the recent anthrax scare. Others, instead of traveling to see people, may send gifts via the Internet.
In response, many airlines have resorted to offering more cut-rate fares at holiday time than in years past, and some hotels and cruise lines also are offering special deals.
The terror attacks are turning shipping businesses into slipping businesses. Before Sept, 11, the U.S. Postal Service already was facing serious problems; now, the spate of letter-borne anthrax attacks could mushroom into financial disaster for the world's largest mail system.
Shipping Operations See Business Plunge
Travel agents say the holidays aren't looking too jolly for many airlines, hotels, resorts, cruise lines and tour companies. Fears about travel, along with the economic downturn, are prompting more people to plan to drive to Grandma's house this year, or even forgo traditional family gatherings and stay cocooned at home.
Already the attacks have shaken customers' confidence in the Postal Service. Lasting fear will hurt catalog merchants, direct-mail companies and any other businesses that depend on the mail. Some might decide to use fax or e-mail where possible, and steer shipments to competitors.
Complicating matters further; tough new restrictions on parcels shipped in the bellies of airplanes. The Postal Service has been forced to shift a large portion of those items to trucking companies and all-cargo commercial airlines.
Sony Corp., in a move indicative of both the softening economy and the difficulties facing independent entertainment studios, is phasing out a large chunk of its television operations... Dozens of free computer games are popping up on the Web that let people punch, shoot, bomb and torment Osama bin Laden. Goodbye Halloween? Some local and state officials want to put the kibosh on trick-or-treating this year, worried about already-fatigued emergency-response teams. European plane maker Airbus, moving faster than rival Boeing Co., said it has begun offering a standard design for more-hljacker-resistant cockpit doors that can be used on all its current and future jetliners.

NEW YORK—Amid the wreckage of the Sept. 11 attacks was an important target the terrorists probably had no idea they were hitting: one of the world's largest communi- cations hubs
Exposed Wires
In what amounted to the worst damage ever to the nation's communications network, the collapse of the Twin Towers caused steel girders and other debris to rain on the Verizon Communications building on West Street, a few feet from the World Trade Center. The building holds 32 floors of humming gray equipment boxes housing the wires that carry phone and data traffic to nearly 30% of Lower Manhattan and beyond, capacity equal to that of Cincinnati. The destruction also knocked out a dense network of phone wires running beneath the Trade Center.
Workers scramble to rescue a
West Street fire
n't get calls through. AFT&T Wireless Services Inc., which ran many of its switches through West Street, will now spread them throughout the city. Verizon is adding more backup capacity and alternate routes and has asked regulators to raise wholesale rates in New York to cover the expense.
Meanwhile, many businesses that lost phone service on Sept. 11 are taking matters into their own hands. At the New York office of headhunting firm Spencer Stuart, where employees are still working from cell phones, officials are ordering different lines from different carriers that reach their office by different routes and hubs. "It's just something that wasn't worth the cost before the unthinkable happened," says Rick Abel, chief technology officer of the Chicago-based firm.
The industry has learned a few lessons since 1988, when a switching-station fire in Chicago closed O'Hare Airport and wired out phone service for 38,000 local customers for as long as a month. Since then, telecom companies have used technology and better planning to create far more reliable networks, focusing on adding backup circuits to fiber lines that seemed vulnerable to an errant backhoe or natural disaster. Most
The disaster also has sparked a new round of debate about telecom deregulation. Verizon executives have loudly criticized the rules that require them to rent parts of their networks to competitors. Verizon argues that the arrangement has discouraged rivals of the Baby Bells from building alternative networks by making it too cheap and easy to piggyback on the regional giants. But competitors say the catastrophe points to the danger of one company controlling so much, "Verizon is the incumbent, and the wiring has been
Getting calls going again has proved to be the most significant challenge Verizon, the largest local phone company, has ever faced, and it is prompting a rethinking of the security of America's highly concentrated telecommunications systems in an age of terrorism.
By nearly all accounts, New York City's phone network—and the people who run it—performed well under incredible stress. By the Friday after the attack, Verizon had moved the equivalent of 2.1 million voice and data lines around Lower Manhattan. Stringing fiber-optics through open trenches and windows, the company was able to restore the New York Stock Exchange less than a

networks can now respond within milliseconds if a particular link is broken, rerouting traffic through hundreds of alternate links.
week after the assault. Verizon workers wearing respirators had to climb 23 flights of stairs in the dark to lug down servers to run the exchange's price-quotation system.
Strong Performance
Thousands of residents and businesses are still without basic phone service. Verizon has had to rebuild much of the subterranean network connecting southern Manhattan by rerouting lines through other hubs. Where its manholes weren't buried under the remains of the World Trade Center, workers used special industrial vacuum cleaners to suck out debris. The rerouting meant that thousands of data paths had to be redrawn, a task complicated by the fact that many large operations, such as major brokerage firms and the New York Stock Exchange, have custom setups that had to be redone virtually from scratch.
in the ground for forever and a day. They have not built a redundant network," says Tom Jones, director of Spectrotel Inc., a competing carrier based in New Jersey.
'Everything On the Table
All across the country, towns and smaller cities rely on only one hub, meaning that they could lose touch completely if that hub were wiped out. In many larger cities, phone traffic is funneled into very concentrated routes in and out of town. And yet, as of Sept. 11, an industry-led federal committee that addresses phone reliability hadn't discussed terrorism contingency plans in at least a year and a half. "This is now a whole new layer of preparedness that our industry and our country needs to be thinking about," says Ivan Seidenberg, Verizon's president and co-chief executive. "Whether we need antiaircraft missiles on the tops of buildings, I don't think so," he adds. "But I'm willing to put everything on the table."
Already, changes are being made. The federal government has asked the nation's wireless carriers to assign priority to government agencies and emergency personnel in the event of another disaster. On Sept. 11, many rescue workers could-

Warnings On Software Draw Fire
C

all it a software dragnet
all in a software druggie.
Millions of businesses over the past 14 months have received warnings that they could be audited for the possible use of unlicensed software. The issuers of the warnings; the Business Software Alliance and Microsoft Corp.
Both parties have been expanding efforts to crack down on companies that might not have proper licenses for software. Licenses serve as proof that a user paid for the software or is otherwise entitled to use it.
But the new campaigns are angering some Microsoft customers, who feel that the efforts are too aggressive—and that they might be aimed at increasing sales for Microsoft at a time its customers are struggling with pared-down technology budgets.
Microsoft says it simply wants to combat piracy. But the enforcement effort comes as the software giant has been delivering new versions of its Windows and Office products and instituting new policies that could boost revenue from them.
A new Microsoft licensing plan, for instance, ends some discounts for organizations that buy software in bulk. And in its new Windows XP product, Microsoft is adding a software "activation" feature that will make it harder to install one copy of the operating system on multiple machines.
Microsoft's antipiracy focus has long matched that of the BSA, a Washington, D.C., trade group, which has power of attorney to conduct investigations on behalf of its nine "global" members, including Microsoft. The BSA estimates the software industry loses nearly $12 billion to piracy every year. And since August 2000, the trade group has been on a campaign to target illegal software use at companies with under 500 employees.
The BSA has sent millions of letters and aired a stream of radio ads offering amnesty to companies that step forward to report illegal software use. A BSA spokesman says companies that receive letters from his group shouldn't feel threatened, even though the BSA can get court orders to conduct surprise inspections, sometimes using federal marshals. The BSA recently toned down the letter in light of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Instead of offering a "software truce," the BSA now bills its program as a "grace period."

discuss how students can maintain exercise habits without leaving campus. STORY BY LIZ FRANKLIN.
From campus topography to plans for a new student recreation facility to be completed for the 2004 fall semester, the University of Kansas is decidedly exercise-friendly.
cise-friendly. KU has not had a physical education requirement since the mid-1930s, and KU ambassadors are quick to tell incoming students during orientation that the University has a "rigorous campus."
Regular exercise is still a part of student life
Exercise has positive effects physiologically, psychologically and socially, said Wayne Osness, chairman of the department of health, sport and exercise science.
"Students that exercise regularly simply do better in class," he said. "Generally, they have a positive avenue to interact with other students and, of course, there are many positive changes in a growing body that is physically active."
Experts now recommend the equivalent of at least five 30-minute cardiovascular workouts of moderate intensity per week for adults.
That intensity can be found on campus.
The most basic exercise, and easy to fit into daily walks on campus, is climbing stairs. According to KU Info, the area under and immediately around Wescoe Hall contains 389 stairs. The staircase from the corner of Sunflower Road and Sunnyside Avenue up to Blake Hall has 102 steps. Depending on the combination of steps taken, students walking up to Anschutz Library or Budig Hall from Robinson Center will climb a minimum of 80 stairs.
Even dorm life is well suited for stair climbing — resi

Climbing stairs targets gluteals (buttocks), quadriiceps and calves, said Julie Welsh, Prairie Village junior and personal trainer for campus recreation facilities.
Choices abound on campus for people who want to exercise more or just better — and not all of them are gymdependent.
"Lawrence is a hill," Welsh said. Just walking to class every day, while it can't replace a half-hour jog, will burn a few extra calories.
Running, rollerblading, skateboarding, biking, jumping rope and cross-country skiing are good cardiovascular workouts away from the gym, said Lindsay Leonard, Carbondale, Colo., freshman and personal trainer.
Focusing on hills can help increase endurance. Leonard suggested jumping rope in three-minute intervals, sprinting the last 30 seconds and then resting for one minute before the next three-minute set.
The mind-body connection is as prevalent in exercise motivation as in exercise effects, Welsh and Leonard said.
Welsh cited mostly mental and emotional motivators for her own exercise.
"It gives you release to let out your aggression in a healthy way," she said. "If I don't exercise, I get depressed. And then I eat."
Leonard said, "For me, it keeps me balanced. And I feel like if I stay really stable physically,it motivates me," drawing a connection between physical achievement and increased productivity at tasks like homework.
increased productivity at the They suggested getting a workout buddy, listening to music while working out, and going to bed focusing on the next morning's workout to stay motivated.
next morning's workout may need some. Some sources even advocate aromatherapy when that trek to the gym gets too daunting. According to the November issue of *Glamour*, smelling peppermint can not only improve moods but actually make people exercise harder.
Variety is an integral factor in keeping exercise exciting, or at least not oppressive. Variety is also extremely important in keeping exercise routines as effective as possible Leonard said.
Leilani said.
"If you just do the same thing, your body gets used to it," she said. "You're not actually working toward your physical peak, you're just maintaining where you're at."
Leonard and Welsh urged students to include strength training in their exercise regimen. Leonard said bodies typically burned calories at an elevated rate for about 30 minutes after a cardiovascular workout.

Not all strength training exercises rely on the gym.
Junior-high gym teachers have a point when requiring students to perform push-ups and sit-ups.
But after a strength training session, "your body has the potential to keep burning calories for up to two hours afterwards," she said.
The key to push-ups, Leonard and Welsh said, is to keep the back straight to avoid lower-back injuries. Addressing the fact that many women lack upper-body strength, Leonard suggested five intervals of 20 sit-ups followed by 10 push-ups to ease into a routine.
push-ups to ease into a routine. People wary of lower-back strain can substitute crunches for sit-ups. While numerous crunch variations target certain abdominal muscles, Leonard and Welsh said they saw nothing wrong with the basic crunch — on the back with knees bent.
The key, they said, is to keep abdominal muscles tight while raising shoulder blades a few inches off the ground, and to look at the ceiling to avoid curving the neck.
For more exercises involving household components and variations on gym classics, Leonard suggested reading magazines. They target teen-age girls and women, and are especially likely to contain toning and other workout tips.
The personal trainers also suggested tucking feet under a counter or couch to keep the body from sliding.
They said a textbook on the head could help increase this exercise's intensity. Welsh said walking with gluteal muscles tensed helped with toning.
For arms and backs, Leonard and Welsh suggested holding arms straight out and making slow, small circles both forward and backward. People can also do dips off a couch or a chair: sitting with hands on the edge of the seat and legs at a 90-degree angle, lower the body toward the floor and rise toward the seat level.
Those who want more intense arm training can purchase free weights from most sporting goods stores or use household goods such as soup cans, water bottles and milk jugs to do exercises such as bicep curls.

Tiny tandem looms large for Kansas football
Sometimes big things come in small packages. Just ask Roger Ross and Derek Mills.
The Kansas receiving duo will be the first to tell you that size doesn't always matter. While their case may be a tough one, there are definitely several facts in their favor, especially after Saturday's game with Missouri.
Senior Ross and sophomore Mills — who both peak at 5-foot-7 with their high tops on — were far and away the 'Hawks most productive weapons against the Tigers. Ross caught five balls for 89 yards and racked up 110 yards on four punt returns. Mills hauled in three receptions for 70 yards and two touchdowns.
Even though it was the best game of Mills' young career and one of Ross better ones, their numbers on Saturday were nothing out of the ordinary. Ross and Mills have been anchoring the 'Hawks receiving core all year long.
In a group that has seven players more than six-feet-tall and 10 players weighing at least 190 pounds, the tiny tandem of Ross and Mills has lead the way through the first half of the season.
Ross currently leads the team in receptions and receiving yards per game, while Mills owns team honors for touchdown receptions. Among those Jayhawks who've caught more than just one pass, Mills and Ross rank one and two in average yards per catch
The two have posted such numbers because they possess other tools that make up for their small stature and less than bulky bodies. Their speed counters what they lack in height, which allows them to beat the opposing cornerbacks downfield. Their elusiveness makes up for their lack of size, which helps them rack up big yards after the catch.
Ross' and Mills' numbers are even more impressive because of the era in which they're posting them. While you'll still find plenty of tiny targets throughout the college ranks, most coaches are now looking to recruit bigger wide outs who stand 6 foot 3 inches and above. Texas' Roy Williams is a perfect example of today's prototypical wide receiver. The Longhorn sophomore is 6 foot 5 inches, 210 pounds with great speed as well. Thanks to his size and speed, Williams is a lock for the NFL no matter how many catches he makes or touchdowns he scores.
Receivers like Williams have forced coaches to groom their defensive backs to be even bigger as well. With cornerbacks getting bigger and stronger every year, french fries and wide receivers are no longer the only things being super-sized. Ross and Mills typically give up four or five inches to the guys covering them, yet usually seem to come out on top.
Just last week, two of Missouri's three starting defensive backs measured 6 foot 1 inch, but "small ball" with Ross and Mills still proved effective. This week things don't get much easier as K-State's secondary also boasts plenty of size and strength. It'll be another mismatch for the Jayhawks' little guys, but don't count out Ross and Mills.
These two may look small, but they always find a way to come up big.

Pardis Brown's broken leg turned out to be nothing more than a beautiful blessing in disguise.
The junior defender suffered the injury in 1998 - her freshman year -- while playing at the University of Portland. She was forced to take a medical redshirt, and during the slow rehabilitation process, she was often seen in the training room working on getting her leg back into playing shape.
Chris Brown was in that very same training room on that very same September afternoon. He was concluding one of the finest careers ever by a Portland soccer player, and a professional calling was in the near future. As he sat in the training room preparing for another practice, he noticed Pardis from across the way.
"She was riding the bike," Chris said. "And I thought, 'I need to go talk to her,' so I just went over there and started talking to her."
Fifteen months after the ice was broken, Pardis and Chris were married. in December 1999, Chris was 22 years old and Pardis was 19.

Football team faces toughest opponents in the nation
Senior Wide receiver Roger Ross holds onto the ball Sept. 8 against UCLA. The Jayhawks lost the game 41-17, but it helped to place Kansas as the team with the toughest schedule in the nation.
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas football team has lost twice as many games as it has won this season, but when it has fallen, it has fallen to the nation's best.
The NCAA released Monday that the Jayhawks have played the toughest schedule among the 117 college football teams in Division 1. Once tabbed with playing the fifth strongest schedule before the season started, Kansas has moved up to the top spot after UCLA has surged to No.4 in the country and Oklahoma has held steady in the top three all season
LAURIE SISK/KANSAN.
The Bruins throttled the Jayhawks 41-17 Sept. 8. Oklahoma outscored them 38-10 Oct. 13. Colorado, who is ranked No. 25, crippled Kansas in the second half at home Sept. 22 before winning 26-17.
After witnessing his team crumble late in Saturday's 38-34 defeat to Missouri, Kansas coach Terry Allen knew that a chance to even his team's record to 3-3 was squandered.
But Allen, who has said his team has progressed each week, did not look at the Missouri loss as a setback.
"No disregard to Missouri," Allen said. "I think they did a great job to come over and win the game and do the things that they did. But I felt that had we played up to our capabilities, we could have won that football game."
The Jayhawks fourth loss came at a critical point in their season. Allen and his squad will battle two Top 10 teams in the next three weeks — Nebraska, whom Kansas plays Nov. 3, is No. 2. Texas, whom Kansas will visit a week later, is No. 7. The first six weeks of the season has troubled Kansas, but it will only toughen as November nears.
Senior free safety Jamarei Bryant was disappointed about Saturday's loss to the
"It was a game we expected to win but just couldn't," Bryant said. "But it seems like we can never pull off the win late in games. We can play with those guys. I know we can. We're just going to have to step it up to win."
Senior wide receiver Roger Ross
thought the schedule in his final year at Kansas would not have been as difficult as it has, but he said that finishing the year strong was possible.
"We are a real good team, we shouldn't be 2-4," Ross said. "But you have to learn from the losses. Life goes on, but we are going to give it our all."

Soccer team shuts out foe returns to Big 12 play
The Kansas soccer team exploded for a 5-0 rout of Drury University yesterday at Super Target Field after being shut out in two straight conference games this past weekend.
The Jayhawks started the attack just two minutes into the game and never looked back, improving to 10-5 on the season.
"Anytime you score five goals, it's definitely good," coach Mark Francis said. "Especially after we got shut out this weekend. It got our offense going a little bit again, and that was good."
Drury, 6-9 on the season, could not get a single shot off during the contest, while the Jayhawks pounded out24.
"It's nice to have 10 wins now," Francis said. "That's the first time we've ever been in double figures. I think we were supposed to win 10 or more."
Freshman forward Monica Brothers scored right away, taking an Amy Geha pass and dribbling around goalkeeper Jennie Grib and into the net.
The Panthers were able to contain the Jayhawk attack briefly, but freshman forward Rachel Gilfillan scored in the 33rd minute to put Kansas up 2-0. Junior defender Brianna Valento was credited with the assist.

LA JUSTICIA
Today's Birthday (Oct. 24). You're part idealist, part strategist. That's a perfect combination this year. The problem you're facing requires both.
Being an idealist forces you to learn more to accomplish what you want.
Being a strategist helps you arrange and edit what you're learning so that it's useful. It also keeps you from forgetting what your goal was in the first place.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is an 8. A grandiose scheme you and your friends put together needs work. It needs money, too. Luckily, you're creative. If you put your heads together, you can solve any problem, but it may take until tomorrow.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 6. Take a moment to reflect on what you've achieved and what you'd like to accomplish next. Would you like to take on more responsibility? Get rid of some? Formulate your plan.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 9. A distant contact can help you make a dream come true. You can learn something you've always wanted to know but were afraid to ask about. Something that was unintelligible is about to start making sense. Keep pestering one who knows.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 6. Hustle and bustle around. Fix what you can and throw out what you can't. Go shopping and buy new stuff. You've put up with enough over the years. Wherever possible, stop putting up with it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 7. You'd like to do everything just to make sure it's done right. However, this noble aspiration is impractical. It's much wiser to find an experienced person to take over some of your tasks - now
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 7. Looks like your workload is increasing. Did you take on a new assignment? Does it sound like fun? How about that raise you were promised? If it doesn't show up on its own, ask. Same goes for the extra work.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct.22). Today is a g. You're cruising atop speed again. Watch out, world! Romance could temporarily clash with your business objectives, though. Just remember not to be late returning from breaks and lunch, and you'll continue to win in both business and pleasure.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 7.
Now is the time to increase your wealth.
You've done the groundwork already. Just ask.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6. Keep a low profile. Take care of domestic issues, with the objective of settling into a workable routine. If something at home needs fixing, get it done. If a roommate has a complaint, listen. You might find a way to fix that, too.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is an 8. Did you know that Sagittarius is one of the signs representing higher education? Another is Aquarius, which is where the moon is now.

Anthrax scare turns out to be coke
The Associated Press
BASEL, Switzerland — The site of an ATP tennis tournament was closed for more than an hour yesterday after guards discovered a letter feared to contain anthrax. The substance turned out to be cocaine, authorities said.
The problem was cleared up in time to allow the opening round of the Swiss Indoors to begin on schedule at St. Jakobshalle. The tournament features some of the top players on the men's tour.
Analysis at the Basel city lab showed no anthrax spores in the powder, said Rolf Klaus, state chief of chemical security.
Further analysis showed the powder was 1-2 grams of cocaine, police spokeswoman Barbara Umiker said. She said there were no indications who left the letter in the restaurant area.
Marcos Mueller, chief of the state's civil defense, said two agents for a private security firm found a letter in the arena lobby yesterday morning.
"When one of them opened it,powder trickled out," Mueller said. He said the powder was brought to the main entrance and tournament security officers were alerted.
The two agents were taken to a hospital, where they were treated as if they had been exposed to anthrax, Klaus said. But the results of the chemical analysis were returned quickly and they did not have to start antibiotics.
Rene Mundwiler, tournament vice president, said authorities were trying to find who planted the letter.
A "bioalert" was given at 10:12 a.m., a fire department spokesman said. The building was reopened shortly after 11:30 a.m.
Firefighters deployed a fleet of vehicles designed to treat chemical spills. The building was not evacuated but fans were prevented from using the main entrance, Umiker said.
K-State player in legal trouble again
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN, Kan. — Kansas State running back Joe Hall's team status may be in question after a recent arrest for a probation violation.
after a recent arrest for a probation Hall, a 300-pound fan favorite, was arrested Monday afternoon for failing to complete probation after falsely reporting a crime in May of 2000. He was released on a $1,500 bond yesterday.
The arrest was Hall's fourth legal complication since he transferred from Palomar Junior College in California in 1998.
"I do not know all circumstances behind it," Coach Bill Snyder said. "It was my understanding that he was to have met and, I thought, did meet with his probation officer on either Thursday or Friday of last week, which was to my understanding to be his very last session."
A Sept. 26 Riley County court affidavit claims that Hall failed to pay $136 in court costs, complete 50 hours of community service and report to his probation officer.

Hall's legal and football-related troubles have been well-documented. Hall, a senior, started in six games in 1999 and rushed for 613 yards.
A games in 1999 and that year, Hall was cited by the Riley County Police Department for alcohol-related charges.

"I think Joe has the makings of a good person, a good quality person, but what has to be understood, and there are some very significant consequences that have gone with Joe's plight here," Snyder said. "He's been behind the 8-ball. He has to do better than everyone else."
Snyder did not know how the recent arrest would affect Hall's status on the team. Hall was not available for comment.

Angels' reliever bought out after contract dispute
ANAHEIM, Calif.  — The Anaheim Angels exercised their $25,250 option for next season on disgruntled reliever Troy Percival yesterday.
Percival, a four-time All-Star who had 39 saves in 42 chances this year, expressed anger late in the season, saying someone in the club's front office revealed details of negotiations with him. Percival said he planned to leave as a free agent after next season.
"I've kept everything quiet, and it's not my style to talk," said Percival, who had a 4-2 record and 2.65 ERA. "So I'm going to go about my business. And wherever I'm doing it, I'm going to do my business the best I can."
Percival reportedly was looking for a four-year $30 million extension.
"It won't be a distraction next year because I won't talk about it," Percival said in late September. "I'll be out there getting saves, because I play for the guys in this locker room. They get me a lead in the ninth inning, and I'm going to save the game."

The 32-year-old right-hander is 26th overall and seventh among active relievers with a club-record 210 saves. He also has a 23-29 record and a 3.09 ERA, and the 417 games in which he's appeared in is second in franchise history behind Chuck Finley's 436.
Baseball's TV ratings are up still lagging behind football
Baseball's league championship series television ratings were higher than last year, but still trailed the second-lowest "Monday Night Football" rating ever.
rating ever.
The New York Yankees' pennant-clinching victory over the Seattle Mariners produced a 7.6 rating and 12 share for Fox Sports, up 21 percent from last year's 6.8 rating and 10 share for Game 5 between the St. Louis Cardinals and New York Mets. The Cardinals-Mets ratings were the lowest ever for a league championship series.
A year ago, Game 5 of the American League Championship Series between the Yankees and Mariners produced a 6.8 rating and 13 share for NBC, 12 percent less than Fox attracted for the same two teams.
The Monday night NFL game between Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants did a 9.9 and 16 share.The only Monday night rating lower than that came on Oct.27, 1986, when the Washington Redskins and Giants got an 8.8 and 14 share. That game was played opposite the seventh game of the World Series between the Mets and Boston Red Sox.
Overall, Fox's coverage of the LCS was up slightly, with a 7.0 rating and 13 share compared to 6.9 and 13 on NBC and Fox a year ago. In primetime, the increase was 20 percent, with a 7.9 rating and 13 share compared to 6.6 and 11 last year.
All of baseball's big events have had higher ratings in the first year of Fox's $2.5 billion, six-year TV deal than they did in 2000. The division series ratings were 6 percent higher than the previous year, and the All-Star game rating was 8 percent higher.
The rating is the percentage of all homes with TVs, whether they are in use. Each rating point represents a little more than one million households. The share is the percentage of homes with TVs in use.

The team that looked so old and feeble in losing the first two games to Oakland turned around and won seven of eight, becoming the first four-time pennant winner since the Yankees of 1960-64.
NEW YORK — Shane Spencer's throw was bouncing to nowhere, along with the New York Yankees' season. The dynasty was about to go down.
World Series awaits Yankees, again
"Sitting on the bench, I saw the ball go over the cutoff man's head," Andy Pettite said, "and I thought the run was going to score right there. And then Derek came out of nowhere."
Then, Derek Jeter appeared as if beamed from a spaceship, grabbing the ball and making his now-famous backflip to the plate.
"That," Pettitte said, "was the biggest lift for us."
The Associated Press
Like so many of these Yankees' moments, they seem like movie scripts, too perfect for reality.
The three-time defending World Series champions won three in a row against Oakland, ending the Athletics' 17-game
After batting .288 during the regular season, the Mariners hit .211 against the Yankees. New York, with its huge scouting budget, found the way to shut down Seattle.
"You can't give a team like that extra outs," Oakland pitcher Mark Mulder said.
An error by Oakland third baseman Eric Chavez allowed the go-ahead run to score in the final game of the division series and an error by Seattle third baseman David Bell led to four unearned runs that gave the Yankees a 4-0 lead Monday night.
While the Diamondbacks were understandably jubilant Sunday night after winning their first pennant, the Yankees were low key after their 38th, exchanging hugs in the clubhouse, where champagne was served in plastic cups as if in a catering hall instead of being sprayed. As reliever Mike Stanton said, winning pennants isn't an end, its just step No. 3 of the four-step process of capturing another Series title.
home winning streak, and advanced to the American League Championship Series against Seattle.
Then they made the mighty Mariners, the team that had tied the major league record of 116 regular-season wins, look like the Devil Rays, taking two games in Safeco Field, winning Game 4 on Alfonso Soriano's dramatic ninth-inning home run and then smoking Seattle 12-3 in Monday night's finale.
"They watched us all September," Piniella said. "They had hoards of them following our team. They would come in waves."
Dead dynasty?
Since 1996, when the Yankees won their first World Series since 1978, New York has given up 13 unearned runs. The Yankees' opponents have allowed 46.
And the while the Yankees were beating Seattle, the eyes of the Yankees' front office were on Arizona. Beating Curt Schilling and Randy Johnson will be a mighty task even for them
Ha!
"They have had so much success that they have got that confidence, and they seem to draw from it," said Mariners manager Lou Piniella, a two-time World Series winner with the Yankees. "They feel that they can win these type of games. I know when I played here in New York, we felt, as a team, as individuals, that we would win big games."
New York had beaten the regular season's most dominant teams, who had combined to win 218 games. Seattle was the first club in 53 years to lead the AL in batting average, fielding and ERA.
Out on the field, Torre turned from the dugout and gave Mayor Rudolph Giuliani a hug, like so many others exchanged in Yankee Stadium since 1996. Then, arm in arm, they walked toward the mound, looking like Humphrey Bogart and Claude Rains in the final scene of Casablanca. Winning in the Bronx has produced many a "beautiful friendship."
Every day brought a different star. Paul O'Neill and Pettite in the opener, Scott Brosius in Game 3, Bernie Williams and Soriano in Game 4, Williams, David Justice, Pettitte, O'Neill and Tino Martinez in Game 5.
No New York player had more than five RBIs in the series.
That's the way the Yankees put together their run of four championships in five seasons, going 53-18 (.746) in postseason play. They've won 14 of 15 postseason series since Joe Torre took over as manager, including 11 in a row.
The Yankees will work out Wednesday, then fly to Phoenix on Thursday.
"You need 25 heroes." Jeter said.
Notes: It's unclear if Mike Mussina or Andy Pettitt will start Saturday's opener. Torre is expected to announce a decision Wednesday.
"You need 25 heroes," Jeter said. During the regular season, the Yankees were just sixth in the league in batting average and third in ERA. Every year they come together during their first 71/2 months together, forging bonds to pull for each other. And during the playoffs, they find a way to win — usually with the help of their opponent.
Giuliani will play host to a rally for the Yankees on Wednesday at City Hall Plaza.
Bob Knight, Texas Tech getting adjusted to new relationship, dynamics
The Associated Press
Maintaining it helps players cut down on mistakes, even ones as fleeting and seemingly undetectable to most fans as a player setting a slightly incorrect angle
LUBBOCK, Texas — The most important word in Bob Knight's coaching vocabulary is concentration.
on a screen the Texas Tech coach said Tuesday.
"W h a t we're trying to do is say that there's a hell of
F
a difference between doing it almost right and doing it right," Knight said. "The outcome of games, I think, are far more a result of mistakes than they are the result of great plays."
Occasionally, Knight recounted stories from his coaching years at Indiana and Army, using certain players and circumstances to highlight what he sees as challenges ahead for his Tech players.
"At this point, what I've been pleased with is effort," he said. "I think the players have given us a really good effort. I think that they have really tried to concentrate on what we want done."
Though he declined to discuss individual players "until we play," Knight praised what is going on during the team's practices.
Knight said an important part of practices is evaluating players' talents and skills and tweaking what has been ingrained for years.
"They have some habits of play, some good, some bad." Knight said. "Probably more bad than good. Now, we've got to change those habits."
No easy task.
"Getting them to quit doing something else and doing what we want done is the challenge and one of the more intriguing aspects of starting with a new team," Knight said. "We go from day to day and find out a little bit more about players and they go from day to day and, I think, find out a little bit more about what we want."
Fans will get a chance to see the Red Raiders squad in a scrimmage at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Tech arena. But don't expect to see any one group of five players stay on the floor for long. Knight will be mixing up it to see where the team's chemistry hums.
"I'm sure we'll have some trial and error with these kids," he said.
He isn't at all concerned about preseason polls that rank his Tech team 10th in the Big 12, and he's telling his players to pay little attention to what others see and attentio
Asked if he is excited about getting the team into action, Knight said, "I'll be excited if we play well."
"There's a very positive apprehension about how we're going to do," he said. "I mean, you're really looking forward to it and you're looking forward to taking these guys totally unacquainted with what you're doing and seeing them develop as a team. But then in the back of your mind you're saying, 'I wonder if we'll beat anybody.' That, to me, is what coaching is all about."
He characterized his overall outlook with hedged optimism.
Kansas City's injuries continue to plague the struggling team
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. The Kansas City Chiefs' list of injuries befits a team that has won only once in six games.
Already with a big hole in the offensive line when tackle Victor Riley went out last week, the Chiefs were dealing with another blow yesterday when defensive tackle John Browning was pronounced lost with a knee injury.
Also out is their best defensive back, Ray Crockett, and top kick returner, Dante Hall.
Coach Dick Vermeil said he was "99 percent sure" Browning was gone for the year. In his place will be Nate Hobgood-Chittick, a fourth-year man from North Carolina who will make his first start tomorrow night against Indianapolis.
"Nate played pretty well last week," Vermeil said. "He's very active. He's a guy who finishes every snap and he gets into plays sometimes just on his effort."
The Chiefs will probably declare Browning out for the year and bring in another defensive lineman.
"We'll bring in somebody and work with him for a while," Vermeil said. "I have a kid in mind right now."
Hall was given a long look at practice yesterday.
"I'm not 100 percent sure he'll be active or not," Vermeil said. "I don't want to get him going too soon and then reinjure the shoulder. He's probably 50-50."
Hobgood-Chittick will rotate with others.
"We'd like to ask him to play 40 snaps," Vermeil said.
Browning, who rarely has
"John Browning gets it done by example," said Hobgood-Chittick.
"You hate to start because of something like that. I'm not looking at this as different from any other week. I just get to go out there first."
much to say, had been playing well before hurting his knee in last week's 24-16 loss at Arizona.
The Chiefs (1-5) will be hosting the Colts (2-3) in a game that was moved to tomorrow night to avoid any possible conflict with the World Series in a Sunday night game.
It will be a fight between two slumping teams badly in need of a win. The Colts, expected by many to be one of the AFC's top teams, have lost three in a row. The Chiefs have beaten only Washington and are off to their first 1-5 start in a non-strike year since 1978.
Vermeil was hopeful of getting Hall back. The kick return specialist has been out for three weeks with a shoulder injury.
The Colts have won five in a row against Kansas City, including three straight at Arrowhead Stadium, where the Chiefs this year are 0-3.
"History won't have anything to do with this game," said Chiefs safety Jerome Woods. "You've got to go out and play every Sunday."
CHIEFS
"A play or two here or there, we could easily have been 3-2 or 4-1. It's not like we've been getting blown out. I'm sure the Colts are thinking the same thing."

Surprises abound 6 weeks into 2001 football season
Ryan Greene Kansan sportswriter
We are now six weeks into the 2001 NFL season, and like every one of the previous 80 seasons, there are numerous surprising and disappointing squads.
This season has already shown more surprises and shocks than could have been expected in an entire 17-week schedule.
Not many would have predicted that the defending Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens would be 3-3 at this point with losses to Cincinnati and Cleveland. Also, not many
13
C
C
would have thought that the Chicago Bears would be sitting atop the NFC Central division with a 4-1 record, and a defense that allows little more than eight points per game.
And who could have fathomed that the San Francisco 49ers, with one of the league's youngest and most inexperienced defenses, would be 4-1?
John Shuman, Red Oak, Iowa, sophomore, said he was delighted with his favorite
team, the Cleveland Browns.
"They go from having one of the worst records in the league to going atop their division at this time with a record of 4-2, and it was good to see them beat Baltimore after they ditched Cleveland for more money," Shuman said.
Brandon Bonfig, St. Paul, Minn., sophomore, also agreed that Cleveland has been the league's biggest surprise this year.
"It's just due to the fact that I don't think Tim Couch is that spectacular, they have no other big name players on their offense, and no one expected them to do
anything really this year," Bonfig said.
However, Bonfig's favorite team, the Minnesota Vikings, has stumbled out of the gate
with a 3-3 record. He said the Vikings were the biggest disappointment so far this season.
"We lost to Carolina, who is 1-4 with an offense that was horrid for the first few games with no running game whatsoever," Bonfig said. "I don't think anyone thought we'd be 3-3 by now."
When predicting which of the season's surprise teams has the best shot at the playoffs, Bonfig and Shuman both picked the San Diego Chargers.
Some sportswriters around the country are not been so sure.
Adam Schefter, a sportswriter from The Denver Post, said he could not pick just one surprise team at this point.
"We get surprised every Sunday," Scheffer said. "Washington beating Carolina, Cleveland beating Baltimore, Minnesota beating Green Bay, San Diego beating Denver, and that doesn't
even include a team like the Chicago Bears, who have just shot out to the front of their division here at the beginning."
Schefter identified one team as disappointing so far, but said it still had a chance to rebound.
"Tennessee. But once again, it looks like they're getting the season back together, and if they win Monday night against Pittsburgh, they could be back in it for a big playoff push, but I would say they have been the most disappointing to this point in the season," Schefter said.
Geoff Hobson, a writer for bengals.com, the official site of
the Cincinnati Bengals, puts Pittsburgh, San Diego, New England, and Cincinnati at the top of his list.
"I think with San Diego, they had a new regime coming in, a new front office, the quarterback situation had been a mess in the past, and things just automatically turned around." Hobson said. "And Pittsburgh, they have a
PITT
solid defense, a good safety in (Lee) Flowers,
and the story there is Kordell Stewart. He may struggle, but he just wins games.
(Jerome) Bettis' banged up knees are better, and the team is just
grinding out games. The Bengals have a new offensive system, they got a lot of free agents to help them out also. (Jon) Kitna has showed that if he has people around him, he can win games."
Hobson also said of this year's surprise teams, San Diego had the best shot at the playoffs.
"The formula to win in this league is pretty clear — a good defense and a running game. A good quarterback puts you over the top. With their defense and running game combined, along with Doug Flutie, it's no surprise they're winning more games," Hobson said.
Hobson's said Washington was the league's biggest disappointment this season, and added that the organization was not running an effective NFL franchise.
Kansas students and nationally recognized sportswriters agree that this NFL season has gotten off to a surprising start, and the next 11 weeks should continue to be a bumpy ride.

Brothers finished the offense in the 67th minute, off of a pass by senior midfielder Melanie Schroeder. With the assist, Schroeder tied Rantala for first on the all-time assists leaders list with 16.
Schroeder said winning against an easier team could have both positive and negative results.

"When somebody loves you; there's nothing you can't do" — Alan jackson
After college, Chris was drafted by the Kansas City Wizards and recently completed his third season. Following Chris' rookie campaign, Pardis transferred to Kansas to be closer to him. They live in Overland Park, the halfway point between Super Target Field and Arrowhead Stadium.
Well, almost.
With both Chris and Paris traveling with their teams often, their time spent together is scarce, and as a result, cherished.
well, ammoni
"He conned me into living in Overland Park, saying, 'Oh, it's fair,'" Pardis said with a smile. "But I have to travel so much farther than him."
"Because we got married so young, it's kind of nice to have the independence of our own life," Pardis said. "We always have somebody to come home to and be with,
out at the same time I can come here and still be a college student. That's something I need."
"All you need is love." — The Beatles
Chris, among many other awards, was a two-time All-West Coast Conference selection at Portland before being drafted by the Wizards. He led all Major League Soccer rookies in goals in 1999, and was a key contributor to the Wizards' 2000 championship run.
Pardis and Chris' soccer resumes are nothing short of remarkable. Pardis is enjoying another successful season as a co-captain for the Jayhawks. Her communication and leadership have helped the Jayhawks to a solid 10-5 record. Last year, her first at Kansas, she received several accolades, including second team All-Big 12 and Big 12 Newcomer of the Week.
"It was awesome," Chris said of winning the title. "That's something you dream of growing up. Besides the national team, it's the highest thing you can achieve."
While the Browns share the love of soccer, they have other common interests that

The Wizards recently ended their 2001 campaign with a disappointing 11-13-3 record. Now, Chris is able to attend Kansas' remaining games — and be a personal coach for his wife.
"He will usually sit behind the goal, and coach me and tell me what to do," Pardis said. "I like that. That's good for me."
When Pardis' soccer days at Kansas have passed, she said she has other plans, including graduate school — and maybe a family.
"Kids," she said. "I might be ready to pop them out. We think about three years."
Chris was quick to correct his wife.

Jayhawks look for win against Oklahoma
The Kansas volleyball team will try to redeem itself tonight in a match against the Oklahoma Sooners at 7 p.m. tonight at the Horejsi Family Athletic Center.
The Sooners upset the Jayhawks earlier this season, killing their 10-game winning streak and halting the program record start at 10-0. Oklahoma hasn't won a match since defeating Kansas in four games over a month ago.
Oklahoma leads the series with Kansas, 38-16-1. However, coach Ray Bechard has a 6-1 record against the Sooners while at Kansas.
Sophomore outside hitter Logan Pierce, who averages 2.91 kills per game, leads the Sooners offensively. The Sooners have an attack efficiency percentage of just 13.7 percent, the second lowest total in the Big 12 Conference. Freshman middle blocker Candice Woods leads the team defensively with a team-high 48 total blocks.
The Jayhawks (12-9, 2-8) face Oklahoma (2-17, 1-8) after two devastating home losses over the fall break to Texas A&M and Baylor. The Jayhawks are trying to leave town with a win as they head to Texas to take on Texas Tech on Saturday and Baylor on Sunday. The Baylor match was rescheduled from Sept. 15.

Senior Olympic official has doubts about Games
LONDON — For the first time, a senior Olympic official questioned yesterday whether the Winter Games should go ahead in Salt Lake City while the United States was at war in Afghanistan.
The Associated Press
But the International Olympic Committee reiterated that the games would go on as planned in February, saying that only "World War III" could lead to a possible change.
Gerhard Heiberg, a respected IOC member from Norway, became the first IOC official to suggest publicly that the games might not take place in the crisis stemming from the Sept. 11 terror attacks in the United States.
"A country at war can't organize the Olympic Games," Heiberg was quoted as saying in the Norwegian evening paper Aftenposten.
Heinberg's words carry significant weight. He was the organizer of the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, considered the best Winter Games in history, and serves on the IOC oversight commission for the Salt Lake Games.
Aftenposten quoted Heiberg as saying that the commission, which meets next week in Salt Lake, was expected to discuss if U.S. military action in Afghanistan was "an armed conflict, a military operation, a strike
against terrorism or a war."
Attempts to reach Heiberg were unsuccessful. Calls to his home, office and mobile phone went unanswered.
IOC president Jacques Rogge and Salt Lake organizing chief Mitt Romney have repeatedly insisted the games would go ahead, saying beefed-up security measures would ensure the safety of athletes and spectators.
"President Rogge has made it abundantly clear the games will go on. To do otherwise would be giving into terrorism," Romney said yesterday in a statement. "The games are needed now more than ever. The IOC executive board has voted unanimously on this decision. We have our marching orders from the IOC and are moving forward to stage great games in February."
Salt Lake Organizing Committee Chairman Robert Garff said the games "could be one of the safest places on earth" with protection by 7,000 federal, state and military personnel.
"The games have only been canceled during world wars and this is a long way from a world war," Garff said. "This is about terrorists who are isolated and scattered."
IOC Director General Francois Carrard said yesterday he had seen reports of Heiberg's remarks
and tried unsuccessfully to reach him by phone for a clarification.
But Carrard stressed there was no provision in the Olympic Charter, the IOC's official rule book, that said the games could not be held in a country which was at war.
Carrard said he believed Heiberg might have been referring to terms of the host city contract, a document signed by the IOC with every Olympic host city.
"In the host city contract, we always have a clause that provides if there is a war in the country, we have the right to terminate (the games) if we feel it appropriate," he said. "It would be our call. This is not at all the situation that presently exists."
that press, notify, Rogge, accompanied by Carrard, toured the United States this month and came away further convinced that the games would and should take place.
But, for the first time, the IOC identified a scenario which could cause the games to be called off.
"The only situation would be outside circumstances such as World War III, preventing traveling throughout the world, making it impossible for the delegations to come." Carrard said. "In that case, we would see what could or could not be done. We are not stupid, of course. But we cannot speculate or make assumptions."
Colts cramming for short week
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Jim Mora's week began early—and ended with his car spending Monday night in the Indianapolis Colts parking lot.
Mora's coaching staff wasn't far behind him.
There were meetings till 11:30 p.m. Monday and more work after that.
At 7 a.m. yesterday, the coaches were back at work, preparing for the precious few hours of actual practice time before facing Kansas City.
IROC
Welcome to preparation for a Thursday night game.
"You've just got to bunch everything into fewer days," Mora said. "So that means longer hours."
For coaches, the changes mean more meetings and longer days. For the players, it means less hitting.
A normal weekly schedule would have had Indianapolis reviewing Sunday's game film on Monday and taking off yesterday.
Instead, the Colts pressed forward, watching footage of Kansas City on Monday. Mora said the change was not mitigated by the result, Indianapolis' 38-17 loss to New England, but out of necessity.
Yesterday, the Colts worked out minus the hitting and today, when the Colts would typically conduct a full workout in pads, they expect only a brief practice before traveling.
"The preparation is different because you've got a limited number of days to get ready," quarterback Peyton Manning said. "You certainly don't have as many days to spread your film study."
Such changes are relatively new to the Colts, who haven't played a Thursday game since 1996. Only four players — tight ends Kill Difler and Marcus Pollard, defensive
tackle Ellis Johnson and wide receiver Marvin Harrison remain from that team, which defeated Philadelphia 37-10.
"We haven't hit, so you do get your recovery time." defensive tackle Mike Wells said yesterday. "I think the game plans have to be easier, and I think you have to focus more because things come quicker."
It also gives the Colts an opportunity to get back on the field quickly, something many of the players are eager to do after losing three straight games.
By eliminating two days of preparation time, however, the Colts have made one significant change.
"This is the simplest gameplan we've had all year." Wells said. "We're going to try to play with a fever pitch, which is what we always try to do. Thursday night."
Until then, the Colts will keep things simple, keep the hitting to a minimum and focus on preparation for the game.

Broadening Kansas horizons with broadband
The truth is out there, Kansas: the future of our state depends upon the affordable dependable delivery of advanced telecommunications services to all of our state's communities, regardless of size or location.
So, what is an "advanced telecommunications service"? It boils down to one word: Broadband - high-speed access to the Internet. If today's dial-up access is sipping information through a straw, then broadband access is like guzzling it through a firehose.
Brett Sayre
MARCUS B. ROTHERWICK
As we continue on into the Information Age, that data "guzzling" will be a necessity for growth and competitiveness in the global economy. Kansas is going to need broadband to succeed and prosper — which is why SBC Southwestern Bell is working to deliver it throughout our state.
Fortunately, several technologies for obtaining high-speed Internet access are available today, including Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), satellite and cable modem. Kansans deserve broadband access through the technology that best meets their individual needs.
Unfortunately, current laws discourage the type of investment that our telecom network needs to support widespread broadband delivery. The regulations governing service providers are inconsistent; there are different rules for different technologies and that prevents fair and open competition.
The rules should be the same for all service providers,to foster as much competition as possible. More competition means more choices and better value for customers. And regulatory resources should be dedicated to protecting consumers,ensuring service quality and holding telecommunications companies to their promises.
With the right changes to our laws, companies will invest broadband will flourish and Kansas will continue to grow and succeed. Together, we will prosper.

Comic book industry growing up
The Associated Press
MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Spider-Man and Captain America came from a world where good always triumphed over evil, where battles were fought against space aliens or mutants. They seldom went near the nasty, seamy side of life.
They had no choice — the Comics Code Authority wrote the rules that way.
Now, with guns blazing,the standards are changing.
Since it was created nearly a half-century ago, the Comics Code Authority has been the industry's way of regulating itself by editing out obscene, violent or inappropriate material. Parents could tell the books their children were reading were safe if they had a logo on the cover that said "Approved by the Comics Code Authority."
But in September, the comics world's largest company, Marvel, ditched the Code by releasing a
"We got tied up in our superhero underwear there fora while," said Marvel editor-in-chief Joe Quesada. "Marvel is growing up with the rest of the country."
Most of Marvel's comics — including Spider-Man, X-Men and Incredible Hulk — will still be suitable for most audiences. But three new titles — Fury, U.S. War Machine and Alias — are breaking with tradition by including profane language and more violence.
The Code was created in 1954, when comic books were read by many more children than they are today. A product of the McCarthy era's witch hunt for "unAmerican" activities, the major comic book companies adopted the Code as a form of self-regulation to avoid sanctions from a Senate committee investigating the corrupting impact of comics on America's youth.
Others say the Code still protects comics from government regulation and ensures that books on newsstands are safe for children to read, even without Marvel.
"We got tied up in our superhero underwear there for a while. Marvel is growing up with the rest of the country." Joe Quesada Marvel editor-in-chief
"We're glad we have something in place that works and is respected," said Holly Koenig, executive secretary of the Comics Magazine Association of America, which administers the Code. "Maybe that's why you haven't heard about us in years."

Knicks slip past Jazz
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Othella Harrington scored 16 points, raising his preseason shooting percentage to 63 percent, as the New York Knicks held off the Utah Jazz 76-72 last night.
The Jazz rallied from a 17-point deficit in the fourth quarter behind 14 points from Rusty LaRue, who is competing with John Crotty for the backup point guard spot.
With a chance to tie, John Amaechi missed a 20-foot jumper with four seconds left to end Utah's last chance.
Before the game, Knicks coach Jef Van Gundy announced that Mark Jackson will be his starting point guard, with Charlie Ward the backup and Howard Eisley relegated to third string.
"I feel for Howard, I really do," Van Gundy said. "I believe in all three, but two have to play and one has to sit. I know Howard will be
ready when called upon."
Jackson finished with five points, seven assists, three steals and three turnovers, while Ward shot 2-for-10 with three assists. Eisley did not play.
LaRue made a strong case for winning the backup job behind John Stockton, scoring 14 of Utah's 25 points in the fourth quarter. LaRue does not have a guaranteed contract, whereas Crotty does, and coach Jerry Sloan said the Jazz will only keep 12 players — opting not to stash anyone on the injured list.
"Guys that don't make our team should have a chance to play someplace else," Sloan said. "He (LaRue) has played OK. These other guys have played OK, too. I don't like to make a decision two or three days ahead of time."
Latrell Sprewell scored 15 points and Allan Houston 13 for the Knicks.
The jazz committed 27 turnovers, including seven by Stockton in 24 minutes.
GREENVILLE, S.C. — This is why Michael Jordan returned to the NBA.
Jordan scored 27 points and hit two clinching baskets in the final three minutes as Washington beat New Jersey 105-92 at the Bi-Lo Center last night.
The Associated Press
Keith Van Horn's 3-pointer cut the Wizards' lead to 94-90, then Jordan hit a jumper from the left side with 2:43 left. After New Jersey's Jason Kidd missed a 3-pointer, Jordan again freed himself for a basket as Washington (2-4) won for the first time in four games.
As if to announce he was back to the capacity crowd of 14,313. Jordan went one-one with Kidd and hit a closing jumper to loud cheers and a flurry of flash bulbs.
Jordan halts three-game skid
utes, and maybe his most complete game. He was 10-of-23 from the field with 10 rebounds, five assists and three steals. He also had six turnovers.
It was Jordan's longest outing of the preseason at 36 min-
Van Horn led the Nets (3-3) with 22 points and Todd MacCulloch had 21. Kidd was only 3-of-13 from the field and had seven points.
The last time Jordan played in Greenville seven years ago, he wore a uniform with longer pants and carried a 13-game hitting streak for the Birmingham Barons. Fans packed Greenville Stadium that time too, but Jordan was held hitless by future major leaguer Jason Schmidt.
Jordan looked much more comfortable inside the Bi-Lo Center. He brought the capacity crowd to its feet with a one-handed slam in the first quarter, then scored eight straight
points in the second to put Washington ahead 43-36.
On his final basket in that run, Jordan strode in from the right side, took a sweet pass from Tyronn Lue and glided in for high-rising layup.
Washington coach Doug Collins said his team struggled to find an identity without Jordan in the game. That didn't happen in this one as the Wizards increased their lead slightly during the first six minutes of the second quarter with Jordan resting.
Popee Jones had six points and Richard Hamilton added four in the span and the Wizards were ahead 33-30 when Jordan returned.
Jordan shook off his 2-of-7 opening quarter to take control. He hit a fadeaway, was fouled twice and made all four free throws and finished things
Collins hopes his young club can get the rhythm that Jordan plays.
with the layup from Lue.
But the Nets, who saw Jordan tie an NBA preseason record with 41 points Saturday night, knew how dangerous he could be.
"It's almost like a jazz musician the way he does his job," Collins said.
When New Jersey's Kenyon Martin came to the bench after guarding Jordan, Martin called to teammate Richard Jefferson, "Coming at you," pointing to Jordan.
"You can tell he still has the ability to take over a game." Nets coach Byron Scott said of Jordan. "He's not jumping over people and floating to the rim like he used to, but he's using his smarts and experience more than anything."

Tennis team expecting success in Oklahoma tourney
By Jason Hwang Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas tennis team will begin play today at the ITA Central Regional Tournament in Tulsa, Okla., making its second stop in Tulsa this fall.
The Jayhawks competed in the Hurricane Invitational on Sept. 28-30. The tournament field consists of 31 teams, including neighbors Kansas State and the University of Missouri-Kansas City, and distant Boise State and Brigham
KANSAS TENNIS
Young University.
The team will send six players, including senior Cheryl Malliaiah, junior Emily Haylock and
sophomore Courtney Steinbock for the singles main draw, and sophomores Kristen and Courtney Steinbock, junior Kim Lorenz and Haylock, and freshman Paige Brown and Mallaiah for the doubles main draw. Lorenz and Brown will play singles qualifying vying for spots in the main draw.
Coach Kilmeny Waterman said she was pleased with the invitation to send three doubles teams.
"Our doubles teams are looking pretty strong." Waterman said. "To have three in just shows that the committee felt that we are fairly deep in our doubles."
Waterman said she was eager to face regional foes in Tulsa, and that she was excited to see the team play against such fine regional competition.
Kansas has not played competitively since the Indiana Invitational, which concluded Oct. 7. The team has used its 14-day layoff to get rest and practice.
Amy Hall, assistant coach, said the layoff had been worthwhile because the team could get ready for matches.
"The girls have used the time to re-evaluate their game," Hall said. "This makes them mentally and physically ready to go. They have their adrenaline pumped. The girls have competed well in practice and hope to do the same in tournaments."
waterman said despite the size of the tournament, it gave the
team the opportunity to face tough competition.
"This tournament features the best players in the region. There are four or five top players, but it's a very open field," Waterman said. "Hopefully we will be looking very positive and ready to do well. It's anyone's game"

Organization serves cake as students try to fast
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Objectivists provided students with free cake yesterday on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union just feet away from students who were fasting to raise awareness about the problems in Afghanistan.
KU Objectivists is a 2-month-old student organization that is based on the teachings of philosopher Ayn Rand.
teaching of philosophy in America. Rachelle Cauthon, Overland Park junior and president of the Objectivists, said objectivism supported capitalism and was a philosophy that held that the world existed outside of one's life, which was the highest value one had.
Cauthon said the organization called the free cake a Pro-Self Defense Feast to support military defense for the United States. She also said the organization didn't believe that fasting helped to solve problems.
"Being hungry does not further that goal," Cauthon said. "There's no need for it."
The Objectivists' table was next to the KU Greens', whose 36-hour fast continued in the lobby. Cauthon said about 30 people took slices of cake.
She said the organization wasn't trying to make light of the situation.
But Joe Jarvis, Lenene senior and Greens member, said he found it curious that the Objectivists handed out cake during the Greens' fast.
"They have a right to do whatever they want," Jarvis said. "It seems rather strange and insensitive. They're defining their group by opposing others rather than explaining their own views."
He said although the Greens and Objectivists disagreed on some issues, they did agree on a few.
"I think we have some common ground," Jarvis said. "We're both adversarial and friendly."
Jarvis said about 20 people attended each lecture during the KU Greens teach-in sessions and 20 people fasted. He said about 15 people stayed overnight in the Union.
"We've gotten some pretty positive feedback." Jarvis said.
I. M. Lowe, Scottsdale, Ariz., senior, grabbed a piece of cake from the table because he said he liked free food, but he didn't agree with the Objectivists' view.
"The ideology behind it is completely obnoxious," Lowe said. "But they have a right to free speech."
Anthrax scare in Lawrence
Suspicious substance found in county office yesterday morning
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
The clerk of the District Court Office was temporarily closed yesterday after two employees discovered a suspicious powder in the records room at about 8 a.m., said Douglas A. Hamilton, a representative for the office.
Employees in the office were stopped at the door until the Lawrence Douglas
County Fire & Medical's Hazardous Materials team had packaged the substance and cleansed the area.
The substance was packaged and sent to the Department of Health in Topeka for testing. Hamilton said.
The office opened about an hour late, at 9:15 a.m.
Despite the scare, no one from the Clerk of the District Court Office was sent home.
Contact Mendoza at 864-4810
"People are obviously a little concerned about what the substance was and how it came to be there," Hamilton said. "But other than that, it's business as normal."
Lt. Kathy Tate of the Douglas County
Sheriff's Department emphasized that there was no cause for concern.
"The substance on its face did not appear consistent with what we would expect of anthrax." Tate said.
The hazardous materials team came to the same conclusion, she said.
"We've got everything in the world floating through the air here," Tate said, referring to the construction taking place in the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center. "We're treating it seriously to ensure public safety."

Students optimistic about design program
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
Sarah Bray said that she felt much better about the future of the visual communications program since last week's meeting between the dean of Fine Arts and students about problems within the program.
Last week's meeting between Toni-Marie Montgomery, dean of fine arts, Lois Greene, design department chairwoman and about 75 visual communications students outlined several improvements that students felt must be made.
Some concerns included a lack of full-time professors, conflicts with overlapping class schedules, problems with
In response to the meeting, Greene said in a written statement that class scheduling problems were unavoidable because of two vacancies in the department. She said that those conflicts shouldn't happen next semester.
"I really have a lot of faith in this program," Bray, St. Louis senior, said. "I don't think all of a sudden, the next day, we are going to see a new department and a new faculty."

other improvements.
According to her statement, damaged tables and chairs needed to be reported to the administration by the faculty.
Kurt Saberi, Overland Park senior, said that he had not seen any changes in the week since the meeting.
"I want them to know that they have the support of faculty and administrators, who can assure them that the Department of Design maintains its national standing and level of respect," she said.
In a statement, Montgomery wrote she would try to regain the program's national recognition.

Spring survey to investigate women's issues
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Four hundred female students at the University of Kansas will be asked to participate in a phone survey next semester so the Commission on the Status of Women can understand the issues women worry about.
"Our hope is to get as much input as possible," said Betsy Blake, co-president of the commission and Lake Quivira senior.
The study, the second of its kind at the University, will ask women questions on issues such as health care, safety, discrimination and where they see themselves in the future.
"It's good for women to know what other women think," Crowther said.
Lisa Crowther, Wichita freshman, could be selected to take the survey. She said she thought it was a good idea.
Blake said once the survey had been conducted, the results would be collected and used to provide programs that address concerns of female students.
The Policy Research Institute at KU is responsible for administering the 30- question phone survey.
"We want to get the most representative sample," she said. "That is why the PRI was handling participant selection, which includes both undergraduate and graduate female students.
Chad Kniss, manager of the Survey Research Center at the Policy Research Institute, said he didn't know how long it would take to conduct the survey or interpret the data. He said it would depend on how extensive the questions were.
The commission is in the process of developing the 30 questions that will be asked. It had a forum last night for women to express areas of concern they thought the survey should address. The commission will have another forum at 5 p.m. today in Alcove D in the Kansas Union. Those who cannot attend tonight's meeting, but who are interested in expressing ideas, should contact Blake at 843-9691 or madhaters@hotmail.com.
Blake said the commission needed $8,000 to cover the expenses of administering the survey and sending letters to undergraduate and graduate female students on campus to partake in the survey.
She said the commission only had $6,000 so far, which it received through a grant from Student Senate.
The Commission on the Status of Women was created by Emily Taylor about 40 years ago, said Katherine Rose- Mockry, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center and faculty adviser for the commission.
"The charge of the group is to examine issues that are important to women on campus," she said.
It is the first student-based organization of its kind. Rose-Mockry said.

Bill to fund Republicans faces another Student Senate delay
The KU College Republicans experienced another setback last night at the full Student Senate meeting when a bill to give the group $382 was put on hold until the next full Senate meeting.
Senate voted to delay hearing the bill for the second consecutive meeting so that it could await a final report from a committee task force that will present a report on whether the bill is eligible for Senate money at the next meeting.
A change to Senate rules and regulations last year allowed Senate to grant money to religious and partisan groups, but some members of Senate have questioned whether the partisan group should be eligible for the money, despite the rules change.
Erin Blocher, chairwoman of the KU College Republicans, said that she thought there was a strong number of senators who would support the bill.
"We're kind of fighting for student rights and that proper rules and regulations are followed by Student Senate," said Blocher, a Colorado Springs, Colo. junior.

Frustrated Topekans ask city to restrict Phelps' picketing
TOPEKA — Topeka residents let the city council know that they've had more than enough of the anti-gay message from the Rev. Fred Phelps and his Westboro Baptist Church Tuesday night.
"It's very clear that this town is reaching its limits," said Dr. Roy Menninger, one of 16 people to address the council.
Nearly 100 people attended the council meeting, asking the city to take steps to curb Phelps' picketing. Phelps and his followers have regularly picked funerals for gays, city halls and other sites. The group has also said the Sept. 11 attacks were a punishment from God.
Phelps and his daughter Margie Phelps were the only two people to speak on behalf of Westboro Baptist Church.
Phelps recited the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution regarding the separation of church and state as vindication for his picketing activities. He said the latest efforts to curtail his activities were a "hysterical milieu."

Simpson stays free man after Florida road rage acquital
The Associated Press
MIAMI — O.J. Simpson was acquitted yesterday of grabbing another driver's glasses and scratching the man's face in a road-rage argument that the former football star insisted was started by the other guy.
After the verdict, Simpson put his hand to his chest and mouthed, "Thank you" as he nodded toward the jury. He then hugged his lawyers.
The 54-year-old Simpson faced up to 16 years in jail had he been convicted of auto burglary and battery for last year's dispute with Jeffrey Pattinson in their suburban Miami neighborhood. The jury deliberated for about 90 minutes.
Pattinson was not in the courtroom. He did not immediately return a telephone message.
The two men offered vastly different accounts of what happened. Pattinson said Simpson ran a stop sign, then acted like "a
Simpson accused the other man of "sitting on his horn." He said he thought Pattinson was seeking an autograph or was trying to tell him about a problem with his car, which was also carrying Simpson's two young children.
madman" after Pattinson got him to pull over by flashing his lights and honking his horn.
He denied reaching inside Pattinson's car to take the glasses and said the two men confronted each other outside their vehicles.
Simpson said Pattinson lied about staying in his car. But Simpson offered no explanation for the scratch on Pattinson's face but explained his thumbprint on the glasses by saying it must have happened when he brushed the glasses away as he broke off the 30-second, profanity-laced confrontation.
During closing arguments, prosecutor Abbe Rifkin did everything but call Simpson a liar, saying the actor came out in him as he testified.
DNA matched to attack victims
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Medical officials have identified the first victims from the World Trade Center attacks based solely on DNA matches, a process that has involved toothbrushes, hairbrushes and other belongings of those lost in the wreckage.
Eight people were identified after DNA evidence was compared with samples gathered from victims' families after the Sept. 11 attacks, Mayor Rudolph Giuliani said Tuesday.
Marion DeBlase, 44, whose husband James DeBlase, 45, was lost in the attack, gave officials his hairbrush and toothbrush. The family also submitted cheek swabs from their three sons, and from James DeBlase's parents in hopes there would be a match if his remains are found.
"You have to come to some kind of closure somehow as each day goes by, but it's very difficult to come to terms with it when you have nothing to hold on to," Marion DeBlase said.
She last spoke to her husband just after a
njacked airliner smashed into Tower One of the trade center, where he worked on the 105th floor as a bond broker for Cantor Fitzgerald. The company lost nearly 700 employees in the attack.
DeBlase said her recent visit to the smoldering pile of debris did not give her hope that her husband's remains would be found.
City officials said Tuesday the number of missing stands at 4,339. Of the 478 people whose remains had been recovered, 425 had been identified. Seven more bodies were pulled from the rubble early yesterday.
DNA is used when no matches are made from other methods, such as fingerprints, dental records and surgical scars.
Giuliani urged more relatives to submit DNA samples.
"We've gotten 2,600 samples, but we know that the numbers of people missing are closer to 5,000, so there are many more people that could submit DNA samples, if that's what they wanted to do," Giuliani said.
STATE Economy, lowered jet fuel use cause drop in gasoline prices
HUTCHINSON—A recent drop in gasoline prices is probably over, but prices likely will not increase soon, according to officials with the American Automobile Association of Kansas.
The average regular gas price across the state yesterday was $1.18. That's down 43 cents from a month ago and 31 cents from a year ago, said Cherie Sage, of AAA Kansas.
The national average yesterday was $1.28 a gallon,the lowest since January 2000.
Another factor in price declines was the effects of the Sept. 11 attacks. With air travel down, oil used for jet fuel was converted to automobile fuel, flooding the market with even more gas, Hogan said.
Price drops in the last five weeks were fueled by a sagging crude-oil market and the sluggish worldwide economy, said Bronwyn Hogan of AAA.
This has contributed to the more than 20-cent drop in gas prices nationally since Sept. 11, when prices were hovering around $1.55, Hogan said.

Residents caught off guard by early North Dakota blizzard
FARGO, N.D. — A freakishly early blizzard piled snowdrifts up to 2 feet high in North Dakota yesterday, closing schools and stranding drivers several weeks before people expected to break out the shovels and snowmobiles.
Grand Forks had a record-breaking 10 inches of snow;the city's previous record for October was 8.2 inches in 1926.
Authorities said 400 vehicles were stuck on Interstate 29 north of Fargo, and at least two snowplows were hit by trucks. A driver was killed in a mini van rollover on I-29.
"The plows have been out, but I tell you what, it's blowing so much out here that the roads — it's just like driving down a prairie trail. It's just very rough, it rutted," North Dakota Highway Patrol Capt. Mark Nelson said. "It's near white-out conditions at times."
In Grand Forks, city and county offices and the University of North Dakota closed. Winds gusted near 40 mph and the wind chill factor was around 7 below zero.

Student helps in East Coast relief effort
By Matt Norton Kansan staff writer
Annie McKay was helping the Red Cross in Greenwich, Conn., in the aftermath of the Sept. 11 attacks when a woman asked whether she could just write a check and attach a little note about a loved one lost in the attacks.
"Sure." McKav told the woman.
When the woman left, McKay took a look at the check and saw that it was for $10,000.
McKay, Hutchinson junior, worked with the Red Cross in Greenwich last summer,and it contacted her to help out with the postattack relief efforts.
Greenwich, which is about a 40-minute train ride from New York City, is a bedroom community for New York's financial district. Although there was no rubble to clean up, there was a lot of financial support and social workers and mental health professionals counseling the people there, McKay said.
Sne said that in her two-year stint with AmeriCorps, which works with the American Red Cross on emergency assistance projects, she had been on the scene of many disasters, including helping survivors of Hurricane George in Puerto Rico.
Jennifer Weaver, an out-of-town friend visiting McKay who worked with her in Puerto Rico, said she had expected McKay to lend a hand to those who suffered from the attacks.
This was something that she wouldn't
even think twice about," Weaver said.
McKay said she had noticed that the emotional and financial impact on victims in New York and Washington, D.C. was far greater than she had seen at previous disasters where she helped with relief efforts.
"The impact for these people was too much to handle all at one time," she said.
McKay said that as she flew to Greenwich, she began to think about the 16-hour work days that would follow in the next two weeks and the frantic pace of events that would leave her and other workers worn ragged.
She said the outpouring of support from everyone in the community made the experience more than worthwhile.
"Little kids were running in with zip lock bags of change they had from running lemonade stands all weekend," McKay said.
McKay, who is in the social welfare program at the University, said the experience fortified her desire to work with people after she graduated.
people have told me.
"Aside from a lucrative career in the WNBA, I couldn't imagine anything dragging me away from this," she said.

Rally to address impact of war on women worldwide
Each year the Womyn's Empowerment Action Coalition, the student group that organizes the march, attempts to educate the campus and the community on the many effects of domestic violence.
This year's Womyn Take Back the Night march and rally falls at a unique time for many of us. The event, a rally and protest against violence against women and children, will inevitably take on a new meaning this year.
With statistics gathered from local domestic violence shelters and rape counseling services, this organization strives to raise awareness on how violence influences our specific surroundings.
This year's march will be a time for all of us to think about violence and war and the effect on women internationally.
This year, the perspective must be widened. With the help of Adrienne Dwyer, professor of anthropology, the important issue of violence against women internationally will be addressed.
Too often, ideas of battered women are horribly distorted. Abuse comes in

many forms and at this time we are forced to move past our mental pictures of the 'bruised woman we once knew down the street.'
We must take new images into account: women in refugee camps and women being murdered through warfare, and understand how women are affected by the violence around them. Furthermore, this is a time to understand the ways in which we can help women in these situations.
While we must work to understand the ways in which governments harm, isolate and strip women of basic human rights, we must also learn how it is best to help these women by empowering them to change their own situations.
it is not our job, as individuals who are truly concerned about women in all
countries and situations, to take women from these circumstances and liberate them in the way we most seem fit.
Instead, we must first work to realize the impact of our actions on women internationally. We must think about what military action means for the women directly affected and living as refugees.
We must also allow these women the power to define their lives and roles in society as it best suits them. The idea of "America: the liberator of women" is a scary one considering the countless women who are affected in our own country by violence.
I hope during this year's Womyn Take Back the Night March, we can all consider the impact of our actions on women internationally, especially in Afghanistan.
While we must work to stop violence against women and children in our community, we have the obligation to stop any actions that might hurt women and children internationally as well.

EDITORIALS
Hey chancellor, cancel class if'Hawks beat K-State
Psst. Chancellor Hemenway. We know you're a busy man, but here's an idea.
It's about our football team. The boys in blue have struggled this year, but winning teams, especially football and basketball, can bring pride to a campus. Schools that have successful programs typically see a rise in enrollment the following year.
So, you ask, what does that have to do with our idea? Well, we think that if our football team defeats Kansas State on Saturday, classes should be canceled on Monday.
Because sometimes canceling class is worth it. The University normally should put academics first here. But college is about more than going to class. Maturing emotionally and socially are also what college is about. Students who spend four or five years in school should come out as educated, well-rounded individuals.
It sounds silly at first. Why should the success of a football team affect whether we have class, especially after students just returned from fall break?
Still, there are more reasons for canceling class. There's pride. Kansas hasn't defeated Kansas State since 1992. That's a long time. It would be nice if KU fans in Hutchinson could answer taunts about the football team with more than just a "wait until basketball season."
Canceling classes could also spread the word about the University. A lot of
potential students make their college decisions based soley on academics, but some make their college decisions not only on the quality of the institution, but also the number of activities in the community, and whether they enjoyed their visit and the buzz of campus activities such as football or basketball.
Imagine how much of an impact that could make on people still deciding on college. It might even bring in more of the National Merit Scholars or minority students that the University also seems to be chasing after or, in the case of minority students, needs to bring some diversity to campus.
Just imagine how great a recruiting tool it would be to have countless numbers of students go home and tell high school students how great it is to go to the University of Kansas.
Here in Kansas, life would go on. The University could celebrate a great win over a program that's down, but quality. Students could use the day off to study or relax or go home and visit family. And the Jayhawk nation could reap the benefits.
campus.
One more thing. Last year, Oklahoma routed Texas 63-14 on the way to a national championship. The Monday after that game, Oklahoma president David Boren canceled classes. Life seemed to go on in the Sooner state and Oklahoma is still thought of as a fine institution.
Andy Davies for the editorial board
Students can ensure a KU victory on Saturday
Fans should tear down the goalposts as soon as Javhawks take lead
A KU win would secure KSU's stay in the Big 12 cellar, the ultimate humiliation for a school that has enjoyed great success in the past decade.
But a KU win could be even more sweet for students. If the chancellor takes the Kansan editorial board's suggestion to cancel classes (see accompanying editorial), a win by the Jayhawks could mean a free day for KU students.
Saturday's Sunflower Bowl match up of Kansas (2-4, 1-3) and Kansas State (2-4,0-3) must remind both schools' fans of the Toilet Bowl days.
However, KU's offense, defense and special teams may not be enough to stop Kansas State from rolling at home. Despite a four-game losing streak, KState has been ranked in the Top Ten this season.
The football team, especially the coaching staff and departing seniors, has everything to gain by a win.
For this reason, students need to help the football team secure a win Saturday.
However, KU has played tougher opponents than K-State this season, but in every game, the Jayhawks have scored first.
It is reasonable to expect they will take an early lead in Manhattan as well.
When this happens, the Jayhawks should look for aid – not from flubber or
a placekicking horse (or other Disney movie trickery) -but from the 12th man, the fans, who may want to take full advantage of KSU's tailgating options.
Here's the plan: after singing a round of "Rock Chalk," Jayhawk fans should take to the field en masse to tear down one of Wagner Field's goal posts.
The posts can be carried to Aggieville or the nearest cowpond, but the important thing is that the officials will have to end the game with KU on top.
Yes, this sounds a little radical, but most KU sports fans would take a bullet for Roy Williams, and this is the chance to show similar, extremist support for the football team.
Think of it as retribution for KSU fans tearing down the goalposts at Memorial Stadium in the early 1990s, except more clever.
The benefits of this action are almost endless. K-State would fall to 0-5 in the Big 12, and KU would regain in-state bragging rights.
But more importantly, a win would allow KU fans to add some valuable trash talk to their arsenal, which currently consists of "Wait until basketball season," and "Davison is the most explosive cornerback in the Big 12."
As if all this isn't enough motivation, just think; you, the superfan, might be featured on Sportscenter, and Fox might be motivated to make a show entitled "When Fans Attack."

Fed must be cautious, lecture warns
By Eve Lamborn
Kansan staff writer
CITY OF CALIFORNIA
INSTITUTE OF HUMAN SERVICES
EN-KAE CHANG/KANSAN
Economic policy should be aimed to provide stability, and mistakes by the Federal Reserve Board could aggravate the economic slowdown, former board member Wayne D. Angell told students last night.
Wayne D. Angell (right), former member of the Federal Reserve Board, gave a lecture last night about the board's role in the United States economy.
Angell discussed the power of monetary policy before 1,000 people in Budig Hall during his lecture, "The Reappearance of Monetary Deflation: Risks and Safeguards to the Great Plains States and Beyond." Angell's lecture was sponsored by the School of Business as part of the annual Anderson Chandler lecture series.
Angell, a member of the board from 1986 to 1994, said actions taken by the board had a powerful effect on history. He explained that the Federal Reserve used monetary policy to alter the scarcity or abundance of money, and its value, to
the United States economy.
"Monetary policy decisions were not just theoretical ones, but the activity of government to set the course of economic growth," he said.
Angell, who is also chief economist for the New York City brokerage firm Bear Stearns & Co., Inc., said the Federal Reserve Board should limit its actions to preserving price stability and keep the dollar from deflating or inflating.
He said the United States had been in a recession since March. He predicted that the recession would last about a year.
Krissy Hadl, Lawrence senior, said she was surprised that Angell said the country had been in a recession last spring.
"That's the first time I've heard someone say it started that soon," she said.
Angell added that the United States was still in the midst of a very productive period of time,
despite the current economic troubles. If the recession lasts until 2002, 9 percent of the last 20 years will have been spent in recession. That would be the smallest percentage of a 20-year period in U.S. history, he said.
Though he warned of the
effects of the Fed's missteps, Angell praised the leadership of Federal Reserve Board Chairman Alan Greenspan.
"Without Alan Greenspan, we would not know the prosperity we know," he said.

Corps opens KU office
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
Finding an opportunity to make a difference in the world just got easier for University of Kansas students now that a Peace Corps office has opened in the Burge Union.
The goals of the Corps, which was founded by President Kennedy in 1961, are to provide labor to countries, to give people in other countries a chance to meet Americans and to promote understanding of different cultures.
Aline Hoey, Peace Corps coordinator for KU, said she hoped the office would help attract students who were unaware of the Corps and help inform them
about opportunities available in the program.
Heey said students interested in joining the Corps must be at least 18 years old. Although a college degree is not necessary, it increases eligibility for opportunities in the Corps.
Hoey said she interviewed students who applied for the Corps at the University. After Hoey's approval, a recruiter from the Denver Regional Recruitment Office matches applicants to a foreign country and assigns them to a two-year mission.
recently left on his mission.
"I think it gives people a new perspective on the world because we are kind of sheltered over here." Klein said.
Hoey said volunteers were sent to different countries and the need for volunteers changed depending on countries' needs.
"It is challenging to serve in the Peace Corps, but that is what makes it so rewarding," Hoey said.
The Corps office is located in the Office of Career and Employment Services at Room 110 in the Burge Union. Students interested in the Corps can call Hoey at 864-7679 or e-mail her at peacecorp@ku.edu.

City re zones for chain store
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Lawrence may soon see another home improvement store, this time in the northwest corner of town. The City Commission voted 3-2 Tuesday to rezone 52 acres of land near Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive from agricultural use to office, commercial and residential use.
Lowe's Home Improvement Store may become the newest "big box" store in town. The store may join other chain stores that recently opened in Lawrence and are seen as big boxes by some community members.
It took five votes, all 3-2 decisions with Commissioners Sue Hack, Marty Kennedy and Jim
Henry voting in favor of each rezoning request.
The Commission heard from developers, local contractors and neighbors of the proposed home improvement store for two-and-a-half hours.
A Lawrence contractor, David Clemente, told the commission that the growth in west Lawrence provided a need for the store.
The Commission listened to both the pros and cons of the issue for two-and-a-half hours.
issue for two boxes are here,
"Big boxes are here," Kennedy said.
"I know Lawrence doesn't like big boxes, but they are here,
and they are useful to our economic base."
This is the second time the Commission has looked at rezoning the area to allow commercial
development. The first time, the Commission found the store to be too large and sent the plan back to the developer to be revised.
The Commission reviewed the new plan Tuesday night.
Commissioner David Dunfield and Mayor Mike Rundle voted against the change as they did a week ago with the rezoning for a proposed Home Depot store. Last week's proposal was passed by a 3-2 vote as well. That rezoning will occur on 31st Street between Iowa Street and Ousdahl Road.
"It is still a big box store in the middle of an ocean of parking." Jeff Moran, Lawrence resident and and KU assistant professor of history, told the Commission.

Fans go to court over home run ball
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds' 73rd home run ball was caught in legal limbo yesterday after a judge ordered the man who ended up with the record-setting ball not to sell it until an ownership dispute is settled.
San Francisco Giants fan Alex Popov first caught the ball Oct. 7, but he lost it after fans piled on top of him. Yesterday, he sued Patrick Hayashi, who wound up with the ball that could fetch an
estimated $2 million.
Lawyers said it was the first time they knew of anyone asking a judge to settle a dispute over ownership of a ball obtained from the field of play at a major league baseball game.
"I've never heard of such a thing. This is a free country. Anybody can sue," said Donald K. Tamaki, Hayasil's lawyer.
San Francisco Superior Court Judge David Garcia, who ordered the ball not to be sold, set a hearing for Nov. 13.
"My whole issue is this is America's pastime." Triano said. "I want kids — big or little — to be able to go to the ballpark and catch the ball with their eyes wide open."
Popov's lawyer, Marty Triano,
said the judge's decision was a
victory for baseball fans.
The sports agent brokering the sale of the ball hit at Pacific Bell Park believes it might fetch considerably less than the $3 million Mark McGwire's 70th homer sold for just three years ago to
comic creator Todd McFarlane.
Michael Barnes said Bonds' baseball either could be sold privately or publicly auctioned and estimated that it will sell for $1 million to $2 million.
Television replays show Popov, a health-food restaurateur from Berkeley, gloving the ball before being mobbed by fans. The ball was ripped from his mitt, and it ended up in the hands of Hayashi, a Silicon Valley engineer.
Buffaloes' plane delayed by anthrax scare
Coach, two players slowed by powder found in magazine
The Associated Press
IRVING, Texas — An unidentified white powder in an airplane magazine forced a two-hour delay for Colorado coach Carry Barry and two players on their way to Dallas for the Big 12 Conference's women's basketball preseason media day yesterday.
The plane was evacuated in Denver when a passenger opened a magazine and white powder fell out, said Colorado guard Mandy Nightingale.
"We just decided that we need to know more about anthrax." Nightingale said. "(Waiting is) fine with me because that means they're going through and taking extra precautionary measures."
Barry said basketball teams should expect these kinds of delays.
"It made me think these are the
sort of things you have to almost prepare for, especially as we start spending more time at airports."
Notes:
Kansas coach Marian Washington said she thought her team had the potential to raise some eyebrows this season.
"In this conference, anything can happen," Washington said. "I want to put a strong defense on the floor and be in a position where we can surprise a lot of people."
Last year's newcomers, who often couldn't capitalize on scoring opportunities, are more confident this year, she said.
"We tried to patch the holes with junior college players and it just didn't work. If K.C. (Hilgenkamp) had been able to step up with confidence and shoot, we might have had a different season." Hilgenkamp, a senior guard, averaged 7.6 points in 29 games last season.

Soccer team hopes scooter returns soon
DALLAS — Monica Brothers wishes she was here right now. In two weeks, she will be in nearby San Antonio with her Kansas soccer teammates for the Big 12 Conference championship tournament, but when she gets here something probably won't feel right.
Something is missing.
Last Thursday, while most students were enjoying the first day of fall break and Brothers was at soccer practice, one of her best friends was kidnapped.
kidhapped.
Brothers' scooter, Barry, has been missing for a week. There have been no leads discovered and no arrests made. No ransom notes were left behind. The silver, two-wheeled RAZOR scooter, mostly popular with junior high students too young to drive, has not been heard from in seven days, but Brothers maintains hope that Barry will be returned soon.
She knows he didn't just get up and roll away. He must have been taken
So she worries. Is he in good hands?
Is he in a safe place? Is he in danger?
But she keeps her spirits up and remembers the good times they spent together rolling across campus, rolling to practice, rolling from practice. rolling . well . everywhere.
She loved that scooter. She misses it and she wants it back.
She still recalls the last moments they spent together, before a thief burst her image of a perfect world in which people could ride scooters in safety and not worry about some middle school kid stealing them.
"I left it in the bushes by practice because I had to run through the gravel," Brothers said during a Monday interview on KJHK's The Bench sportstalk. "It was 9 in the morning on Thursday over fall break and I figured, 'Who's up at 9 in the morning? No one will take it."
Sadly, she was wrong.
Brothers said that at first, she had thought one of her teammates took the scooter. "They haven't fessed up, and I think they would by now," Brothers said.
But as was proven during Friday's 4-0 loss to No.17 Texas A&M and Sunday's 2-0 loss to No.12 Texas, Barry clearly plays a vital role in the soccer team's success and its absence rocked the Jayhawks in both games. The Jayhawks are 9-3 with Barry in Brothers' possession. Without the scooter, the team is 1-2. Clearly, Barry was a catalyst for the team, a silent leader that did all of the intangibles, such as providing moral support and giving Brothers rides to and from practice.
Brothers needs her scooter back, and she needs it now.
and she needs the scooter can help elevate her game Sunday when the Jayhawks battle Baylor at 1 p.m. at Super Target Field. She will need it in San Antonio to help the Jayhawks, who are 10-5, roll to the Big 12 title game.
It's nearly 80 degrees today in Texas. It's a great day for soccer and wonderful scooter-cruisin' weather. Brothers would like to do just that while celebrating a Big 12 tournament championship, but unless Barry is here with her, then she'd just assume stay home.

'Hawks sweep Oklahoma
September loss avenged as volleyball team wins in three close games
By Steve Laurenzo
Kansan sportswriter
After losing to Oklahoma in September, the Kansas volleyball team redeemed itself last night by sweeping Oklahoma in three games at the Horejsi Family Athletic Center.
On Sept. 22, Oklahoma stunned Kansas, winning the match 3-1 and breaking Kansas' program record-setting 10-0 winning streak.
Last night, Kansas was led by junior middle blocker Molly Scavuzzo, who had 17 kills. Sophomore outside hitter Sarah Rome scored a double-double
with 14 kills and 10 digs.
"I thought Scavuzzo really was great tonight," coach Ray Bechard said. "Seventeen kills, only three errors and hitting 51.6 percent. That was big for us."
The Sooners (2-18, 1-9) stuck with the Jayhawks (13-9, 3-8) through the midway point of game one, staying as close as 13-12, but the 'Hawks slowly pulled away as Scavuzzo pounded three of the Jayhawks next five points. The Jayhawks took an 18-13 lead and held on, winning 30-24.
Games two and three were much tighter, but Kansas prevailed, 30-28 and 33-31. Bechard was pleased with the win,but not ecstatic with his team's performance.
"The second time around, sometimes the matches aren't as pretty because the teams get to know each other's tendencies pretty well," he said. "That was not a
thing of beauty by any means, but I was excited by the fact that we fought and won some games that we needed to win."
Bechard acknowledged the importance of the team's first win at home since Sept. 29
"It was more important tonight to win than it was to have great execution," he said. "I told the team any time you get a win in the Big 12, rejoice and be happy because it's a great conference and it's a very difficult match night in and night out."
Junior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft made her way into the Kansas volleyball record books by sliding four service aces past the Sooners, giving her 107 career kills and tying her for eighth place in the books. Kraft was happy with her accomplishment but attributed her success to someone else.
"It wasn't something I ever really thought about having as a part of my career, but I'm really excited about it." Kraft said. "It's pretty much my coach's job to tell me where to serve, so he gets the aces, not me."
losing streak.
"Its such a great feeling," she said.
"Practice tomorrow is just going to be a lot brighter. People are going to come in with a lot higher heads we'll work a lot harder."
Kraft was also excited about the Jayhawks breaking their four-game home losing streak.
The Jayhawks head to Texas for matches at Texas Tech on Saturday and Baylor on Sunday.

Sophomore cuts down run times shows renewed confidence
By Matt Norton Kansan sportswriter
As Katy Eisenmenger breezed through a pair of crisp one-mile runs at Rim Rock Farm Tuesday afternoon, it was easy to see this was not the same runner who finished 67th at last year's Big 12 Conference cross country championships.
She and the rest of the Jayhawks will compete at the 2001 Big 12 championships in Norman, Okla., Saturday.
Eisenmenger said her good track season last year helped her out a lot.
"Ive always been more of a track runner, and I ran quite a bit more this summer than I have in the past," she said. "That boosted my confidence coming into the season right away."
Eisenmenger said she had mononucleosis and anemia late in the indoor track season last winter, just as she was starting to finally recover from it.
ing to many seas. Relieved that perhaps illness was the reason for disappointing performances in cross country and early in the track season, the junior from Fairmont, Minn., said she had renewed confidence to attack her competition at the Big 12 indoor track championships.
Cutting nearly 10 seconds from her previous best at 1,000 meters, she ran the second-fastest time in Kansas history, 2.51.51, in the preliminary heat. She went on to finish a surprising fourth in the final behind three of the best middle-distance runners in the country.
Assistant coach Doug Clark said that as Eisen-

menger headed into the big meet at Lincoln, Neb., she was ready for a breakthrough.
"I can't say that it was a complete surprise, but it was just great to see it happen," he said. "She's been on a tear ever since."
During the outdoor season, she took more than 20 seconds off her 1,500-meter best, recording the fourthfastest time in school history. She finished the season with an eighth-place finish at the conference championships.

Her improvement has continued into this cross country season.
season. In each of the Jayhawks three meets in 2001, Eisenmenger has improved her times from those on the same courses a season ago.
Junior runner Katy Eisenmenger races toward the finish line during the final stretch of the season-opening meet at Rim Rock Farm outside Lawrence. Eisenmenger has improved her time on nearly every course this year and has become one of the strongest runners on the women's team.
At home in the Bob Timmons Invitational, she chopped 35 seconds off last year's time. Three weeks later at Oklahoma State, she finished a staggering 1:34 faster than in 2000. Then at the Chili Pepper cross country festival in Arkansas two weeks ago, she sliced 1:07 from her performance there last season.
Eisenmenger said the adjustment to team leader had been easy.
"I think our team has always meshed pretty well," she said. "I don't feel like there's any strong divisions between anybody. It is kind of fun seeing some of the new girls coming in and show them the ropes a little bit. You see that they obviously look up to you a little bit."
"I think a lot of it is taking it easy and not being too hard on themselves," she said. "Everyone their bad days
She said she had tried to impart some of the wisdom she had attained through her struggles to get better at this level.

and you're not always going to perform your absolute best."
He said while he was disappointed Eisenmenger didn't choose Tulsa, he was excited to work with her when he moved to Kansas in the fall of 2000, the beginning of Eisenmenger's sophomore year.
"At the start of the school
year last year, I said 'She's just got a lot of rust on her, she's just got to knock it off and get back down to the athlete and start working again,'" Clark said.
"She's done a great job ever since," he said. "She's always worked hard since I've been here; we just started behind. The shape she came into this year compared to the shape she came into last year, there is no comparison."

Five netters head to regionals
Freshman Paige Brown acquired a spot in the singles main draw. She won two preliminary matches against Utah State's Caroline Pollock, 6-1, 6-3, and Kansas State's Paula Castillejos, 6-2, 6-4. Brown will join three teammates, senior Cheryl Mallaiah, junior Emily Haylock and sophomore Courtney Steinbock, who were invited as automatic entries into the 64-player singles tournament.
The Kansas tennis team advanced one of two players in the singles qualifying round at the ITA Central Regional Tournament in Tulsa, Okla., yesterday.
KANSAS TENNIS
Amy Hall, Kansas assistant coach, said she was pleased to see Brown do well and that Brown could stun opponents.
"Paige played awesome today. She really worked out there today." Hall said. "If she keeps her momentum going, she is going to surprise a lot of people in this tournament."
In addition to playing singles, Brown also will play with Mallaiah in the doubles tournament.
Junior Kim Lorenz lost her single elimination qualifying match to New Mexico State's LeJla Porobic, 1-6, 1-6. She will play with partner Emily Haylock in doubles action.
The singles and doubles main draw started today and ends Sunday. The top two finishers in singles and doubles in the ITA Central Regional Tournament will advance to compete Friday, Nov. 9 to Sunday, Nov. 11 at the National Indoor Championships in Dallas.

Allen upset media focuses is on his job not on team
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
Kansas football coach Terry Allen doesn't like to talk about his job status. But he really doesn't like it when his players are asked about it too.
Allen used the first 10 minutes of his weekly press conference yesterday to berate the media's focus on his job status. He asked that emphasis instead be shifted to the play of his 2-4 Jayhawks.
4. jayhawks.
It's bad for the team, Allen said, if all they ever hear about is Terry Allen and his job, and worse now that they're being asked about it.
"That doesn't bother me because I'm going out to play for myself and for the school and also for coach Allen, but I can't decide whether he's here or not."
"I read the statements in the paper this morning about coach Allen and the coach's show," said Mario Kinsey, freshman quarterback. "People calling in and telling him he should resign and he's not a D-I coach.
Senior captain Nate Dwyer said he could see both sides of the story.
The Kansas players are aware of their coach's situation, but said they pay little attention to it.
"I don't know if I'm going to be here next year," he said. "But right now we're doing everything we can to prepare this team to play Kansas State."
they are being asked "Let's talk about Roger Ross and his 110 punt-return yards last week," Allen said. "Or Mario Kinsey's progression at quarterback."
However, after seeing that his players had been brought into the issue, Allen decided to voice his displeasure.
Allen said he understood why his job security has been a hot topic. In four-plus seasons in Lawrence, Allen has a 19-29 record, including a 0-4 mark against Kansas State.
he could see back to "We know he's a good coach and we like him a lot and respect him," Dwyer said. "But it comes along with the job I suppose. There's always the pressure to win."
Talk of his potential firing intensified in area newspapers after last week's 38-34 home loss to Missouri.
Allen can go a long way to silence his critics with a win in Manhattan on Saturday. Kickoff for the Sunflower Showdown is set for 2:30 p.m.

Students scramble to find last-minute costumes
BY NICOLE ROCHE
(2)
Rows of accessories line the shelves at Fun and Games — paste-on noses and beards, hats with dreads attached and even pink plastic breasts.
EN-KAE CHANG I KANSAN
Still, with Halloween less than a week away,
Annie Monfort, Iola sophomore, roamed the store,
stumped about what to be.
"I'd kind of like to dress up as a Moulin Rouge can-can dancer," she said. "That's what is so fun about Halloween. You can become a completely different person."
As Oct. 31 nears, students like Monfort scramble to find the perfect costume idea.
Sarah's Fabrics, 925 Massachusetts St., rents costumes and sells accessories year-round.
"Most people that come in don't quite know what they want to be yet," said owner Sarah Fawman. "They just want to look around."
Monfort said she tried on a belly dancer costume at Sarah's earlier this week.
"I really like the costume," she said. "I just don't know if my abs are really in shape for that."
Fayman said there were usually trends each year, and popular items this year include butterfly and angel wings, Renaissance costumes and feather boas.
"People are starting with wigs this year and their costumes are sort of evolving from that," she said.
Another popular theme is genie costumes.
Another popular theme is game "Maybe people are into fantasy because things have been so grim lately," Fayman said.
She said her store is a good place to go if people are looking for couple costumes.
"I had a couple come in earlier today that decided to be a bunny and Hugh Heffer," she said.
Fun and Games, 816 Massachusetts St., is a toy store that carries a variety of costumes and accessories.
"If you come in here with an idea, we can usually piece together something," said manager Kvle Billings.
Billings said a lot of people were going with
traditional costumes this year, such as vampires, witches and devils.
"Some of the best costumes I see each year are your normal witches, but they do something really awesome with it," he said.
Austin Powers costumes were really Jessica Strathman (right), Baileyville freshman, models a pink wig at run and Games, 816 Massachusetts St., while Becky Kockelman, Baileyville freshman, is background. Wigs are one of the most popular items for Halloween.
Billings said that similar to Monfort's Moulin Rouge idea, movie characters were always popular costumes.
"Last year Austin Powers cos-
Dana Bottenfield, looks around. Wigs are o Pittsburg, Kan., senior, said that 2000's Charlie's Angels was the inspiration for her costume this year.
"One of my roommates has red curly hair, one is Asian and I'm blonde, so we decided to go as Charlie's angels," Bottenfield said.
Bottenfield said she never spent much money on her Halloween costumes.
"We pretty much plan on digging stuff out of our closets or going to a thrift store," she said. "That's usually a good place to find stuff like that."
Brent Stevens and his friend Jeff Allmon, Wichita juniors, are dressing up as the main characters in 1999's Fight Club.
They plan on going to Madison, Wis., this weekend for some costume parties.
"For some reason Halloween is like Mardi Gras for Madison. Everyone is in costume — everyone," Stevens said. "Someone told me it
was on a list of 25 things to do before you do "Go to Madison for Halloween.""
Stevens said he is piecing together most of his costume from clothing he already has, including a leather jacket that looks like the one Brad Pitt wore in the movie.
"Jeff and I have most of our stuff already," he said. "We just need to get some makeup for scars on our hands and blood on our face."
Stevens said he plans on going to Paper Warehouse, 1441 W. 23rd St., for some last minute shopping.
Billings said the biggest rush of shoppers should start today and tomorrow, with Saturday as the busiest.
While many students end up procrastinating until the day before Halloween, Fayman from Sarah's Fabrics said waiting until the last minute might not be the best idea for costume shoppers.
"Things are picked over by then," she said.
[Image of a woman wearing a white halter dress with decorative belt detailing, standing in front of clothing racks filled with various garments.]
The longer you wait, the less there is to pick from."
Monfort said she needs to get a costume for her drawing class next week.
"We are doing self-portraits in costume on Halloween," she said. "But I'm a Halloween fanatic, so I might just run around between now and then with some wild face paint on."

Last year Monfort and her date went as a prostitute and a priest for Halloween.
Monfort said she had two other costumes last year, including Columbia from The Rocky Horror Picture Show and a head-to-toe black ensemble that she dubbed "a woodland nympho" costume.
"It was a really simple costume, but when I told people what I was supposed to be, they got a kick out of it." Monfort said. "A lot of it is just being creative with what you've got."

LAURENT BALSAMÉ
Today's Birthday (Oct. 25).
A situation you've been putting up with at home gets worse before it gets better. What if the thing you're most worried about actually happens? It might be a relief. It's give you one less thing to worry about as you spring into action, and it
could lead to the discovery of a hidden treasure
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is an 8. Teamwork is still your key to success. You have the courage and the enthusiasm. Get somebody who can solve technical puzzles and fix things. Somebody who has deep pockets would be good to have on board, too.
Taurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 5. You're a good negotiator because you're patient. You can get to get what you want. You can figure out what the other guy wants, too. If you find a way to solve his problem, you can write your own ticket.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). Today is a 9. Work and play make a good mix. Go off on a quest. Take an advanced-level course in something you can put to use as you amass your next fortune. The money's out there. Rake it in.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is a 7. You may notice you have less tolerance for minor irritants. You want things to be the way you like. It's OK to insist that certain standards be met.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 7.
You're a pretty good strategist, but you can get even better. Carefully draw up the plans for your next project. Make your mistakes on paper, then have an expert catch them before you start working with metal and wood. Be the best.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 7.
Kick yourself into overdrive while performing a routine you've performed a thousand times before. See if you can shave a few minutes off your previous record. Maybe you can push yourself to a whole new level.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22). Today is a 9.
You can make the big bucks, and it doesn't have to require more work. Once you make up your mind that you're worth it, the rest is easy.
scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 6.
Continue to upgrade your tools and appliances. Get rid of the energy guzzlers and make your life easier.
This is difficult, but things get easier once you're finished.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is an 8.
Make time to read. You may be most interested in technical manuals, and they take longer. Are you installing a computer program or fixing something for a friend? If not, you might give something like that at a try. It's a good day for it.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 7.
Abundance can be yours. It could come from a familiar source, or in a way you never imagined. You won't have to steal to get it, and you may get to provide a service. Start by offering to do just that.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 7 You're not quite finished yet, but almost. Just a few more details to check off your lists. Go over your work again just to make sure. Big day coming tomorrow. Clear the decks.
Aquarius (Jan. 29.Feb.18). Today is an8.

Questions, questions, questions. I love them. Almost as much as I love
I've them. Almost as much as I love ... but I digress. Most of the questions I've received in my little e-mail box have been penis related, which shouldn't mean that those without a penis should stop reading. If you are in a relationship with a man, you are also in a relationship with a penis. I don't know what to say to those of the lesbian persuasion — other than I need more vagina-powered questions.
So, for those of you with a question, get busy and start writing. Then, hopefully, getting busy will go a little smoother for everyone.
Commentary
masturbation can put you at the risk of many things such as possible embarrassment from a roommate who wasn't supposed to be home until 6 p.m., a nice white patch on your newly cleaned sheets, or an embarrassing reminder that semen
Q — Will masturbating make my penis permanently shrink?

does not make good hair gel.
However, masturbation, unless of course you're sure-to-get-off masturbation technique requires *gulp* knives or cutting, should not shrink your penis in any way. In fact, aside from possible problems like those mentioned above, or a nasty case of skin burn from overenthusiastic rubbing without proper lubrication, masturbation is as sale as sexguets — for guys and girls.
And — be assured — there are many, many multiple-times-a-day masturbators who would notice, probably quickly, that Mr. Happy was
slightly shorter at the start of each wanking session. If this ever happens, be assured you will probably hear about it from Dan Rather or Tom Brokaw. Until then, masturbate with the knowledge that the only thing you are reducing is your horniness.
Q — My friend from California told me about Jack and Jill parties. She said they were a great way to relieve stress. But what are they?
Jack and Jill parties started in the late 1890s when the AIDS crisis was making sex a pretty scary idea. So, some people in the San Francisco area decided to start Jack and Jill parties - basically safe-sex parties for men and women to attend.
Jack and Jill parties aren't just for men (aka jack-off party), they don't allow unsafe sexual practices (aka orgy) and they aren't just for couples (aka swinging). But, they are for just about everybody else. Gay, straight, men or women — just about any
combination goes. And, just about anything — except sometimes penetration — is allowed. Even when penetration isn't part of the party plans, strict safe-sex and safety practices are required.
Dental dams and condoms are used for safe oral sex, condoms are required for any sort of sexual play and no rude or unwanted behavior is allowed. Participation is consensual, and not required. Basically, the creators of the parties wanted to provide a safe, fun atmosphere for sexual experimentation of many kinds.
Although Jack and Jill parties kind of makes keggers sound a little tame, they are just a safe, entertaining forum for interested individuals to explore their sexuality. So, anybody interested in a stop-day gathering?
'Varga Girls' unveiled at Spencer Museum

They've been called anything from "masturbatory aids" to "manifestations of beauty." Their curvaceous bodies and long limbs give them—as Maria-Elena Buszek of Santa Monica College put it—"impossible proportions." With a distinctive look and "hypersexual physique," a Varga Girl is hard to miss.
And 84 Varga Girl paintings are showing in the Kress Gallery at the Spencer Museum of Art.
The exhibit, "Alberto Vargas: The Esquire Pinups," on display through Dec. 30, is producing a variety of reactions from students and visitors.
Kendra Senrick, Concordia freshman, called Vargas' depictions of women "revolutionary" for their time.

Eighty-four Varga Girl paintings are currently on display at the Spencer Museum of Art. The "Alberto Vargas: The Esquire Pinups" exhibit will continue through Dec. 30. Contributed photo
"I don't think that it exploits women," Senrick said. "It shows that women can be powerful and sexy."
Maria-Elena Buszek, in an essay that accompanies the collection, reaffirms the positive statement of the Vargas female and her relation to contemporary feminism.
In "Of Varga Girls and Riot Grrls," she writes that "the pin-up has become for many an icon symbol of the more rebellious streak in contemporary, third wave or 'riot grrl' feminist thought."
The essay by Buszek as well as others concerning the exhibit, can be found at www.ku.edu/~sma/vargas/vargas.htm.
Stephen Goddard, senior curator of the museum, said he had expected diverse reactions to the collection.
"I'm sympathetic towards all of the different views," said Goddard, who, with Buszek, organized the exhibit. "Some see it as pornographic, but I think that's extreme. I
don't want to whitewash the issue and say they're purely affirmative images of women."
Although the museum received the collection in 1980 from Esquire, which published Vargas' original watercolors in the 1940s, there has never before been an exhibit devoted specifically to Vargas' watercolors.
Goddard said that recent heightened public and academic interest in Alberto Vargas' work — as well as the art of the pinup in general — contributed to the organization of the project.
He said that in addition to the women's issues involved with the pinups, the works were also associated with World War II, fashion and American material culture.
"I think it's of interest to everyone, frankly," Goddard said.
Haylee Nair, who works in the Spencer Museum of Art bookstore, said the overall response to the Vargas exhibit had been positive.
"They think it's great," Nair, Vinita, Okla., junior, said. "I thought people would get kind of pissed. I expected to encounter more complaints."
She said the audience was predominantly male, with many "older men" visiting.
Marcus Destry, 50, was impressed by the technical skill involved with the production of the watercolors, as well as the beauty of the images.
"He gives them each personality,"
Destry said, "They're all completely different people."
The wide appeal of the portraits is made evident by the prevalence of non-art students visiting the gallery.
"We seem to have more students just coming in from seeing the banner outside," Chris Long, security chief at the Spencer Museum of Art, said. "We've never had so many people come in for just one particular show."
Long said one man from Florida had traveled to Lawrence just to see the exhibit.
"We have a lot of people who come in here who genuinely like this," Long said.

Office supervisor moonlights as agent for country singer
By Michael Sudhalter Jayplay writer
Promoting a country- and-western music artist to a college audience may not be an easy task, but a KU office supervisor thinks she is ready for the challenge.
Earlier this year, Teri Leahy, the office supervisor for the department of physics and astronomy, began moonlighting as an agent for Royal Wade Kimes, an internationally known country-and western performer.
He has written songs for Garth Brooks, Diamond Rio and Gene Watson, and toured alongside Trace Adkins, Terri Clark and Mark Chesnut.
ANTHONY REYES/KANSAN
"I always liked country music and it seemed like a nice outlet for me," Leahy said. "It is kind of like a hobby."
Kimes, who grew up in Chester, Ark., moved to Nashville in 1983 in pursuit of a music career.
1991 Ropin' the Wind album, and is working with Brooks on a song titled "If I Were King."
After working at country music legend Loretta Lynn's ranch, Kimes started a new job with a publishing company and wrote songs, including "We Bury the Hatchet" on Brooks'
Kimes has received awards for many subgenres of country music including Christian country, western and mainstream country music.

"I like stylists, and a stylist is someone who has a sound of their own," Kimes said. "I do hard-core country, but I usually throw in some rockabilly stuff and give them a little bit of everything."
Teri Leahy, office supervisor for the department of physics and astronomy, also works as an agent for Royal Wade Kimes, a Nashville country-and western singer, guitarist and songwriter.
Kimes said that Leahy is helping him reach several of his music-promoting goals.
"Teri hooked me up with a lot of different college events," Kimes said. "She is good with the (college) age group."
Leahy is responsible for helping Kimes connect with the national college audience as well as Kansas City-area residents.
Leahy said Kimes' music differs from most of the material that is called country music on today's radio stations.
"I've worked with the University so I know
how the college network runs," Leahy said. "Wade's music is about country and western with a lot of history incorporated into it.
"People of all ages love his music because it
transcends time and generations and all different boundaries."

Red album a musical hit, lyrical flop
By Thomas Holland Jayplay writer
Life has been rough for the lone remaining Days of the New member Travis Meeks, but his new Red album will help sweeten his disposition.
his disposition.
Meeks has experienced fame since breaking onto the music scene more than three years ago. But fame isn't the only driving force behind Meeks' experimentation in his newest album. Surviving the breakup of his band and overcoming the label of one-hit wonder has made Meeks a stronger musician, and this strength is seen in the passion Meeks shows in his new work.
Days of the New's newest release, the Red album, mixes the nouveau-southern rock of the Yellow album with the artistic edge of the Green album to put
together a refined sound for the group.
Although Days of the New's mixed sound works, Meeks misses the lyrical mark on the Red album. Every song sounds great musically, but Meeks' shallow lyrics about his power wear thin after the first four tracks.
Meeks' problem begins with the first song, "Hang On To This". In this song, Meeks laments, "I've worn the world without a word/and I don't care too much for what they say."
It's hard to appreciate the passionate, inventive sound on an album when you can't even understand what the lyrics are supposed mean.
Even though Days of the New has one or two glaring problems in its new project, there are numerous bright spots.
murous brightness
"Die Born," one of the best
songs on Red, is different from the rest of the album. It is noticeably slower, and is more deliberate with its presentation and story which allows Meeks' music ability to shine.
The same goes for "Dancin' With The Wind." Although also a slower song, "Dancin' With The Wind" contrasts with "Die Born" by exhibiting more of a concept sound than a concrete musical style. "Dancin'" weaves together rock and concert hall instrumentation for a unique sound. Lore has it that Meeks worked on "Dancin'" for more than six months, and his attention to detail is obvious.
dean is in all, Meeks should be very proud of Days Of The New's third effort.

Album sales reflect patriotism
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—Americans are showing their patriotism in record stores.
God Bless America, an album featuring Celine Dion's much-praised rendition of the song, is the nation's best-selling album, according to figures released yesterday.
The disc, which Columbia Records touts as "a collection of songs of hope, freedom and inspiration," also includes Frank Sinatra's "America the Beautiful," Maria Carey's "Hero," Trimaine Hawkins's "Amazing Grace" and Pete Seeger's "This Land Is Your Land."
The album sold 180,984 copies in its first week to debut at No.1 on Billboard's top 200 album charts.
And it's not the only patriotic hit on the charts.
The re-release of Whitney
Houston's "The Star-Spangled Banner" is a best-selling single, and Lee Greenwood's "American Patriot" album sales have surged based on the popularity of his 17-year-old hit, "God Bless the U.S.A."
"It's hard to think of a time in the last 20 to 30 years where there has been such a wide embrace of patriotism," said Geoff Mayfield, charts director at Billboard magazine.
Not only has patriotic music surged in popularity, but more contemplative, inspirational tunes.
New Age singer Enya's "Day Without Rain," which had been out for almost a year before the attacks and was No. 20 before Sept. 11, is now the nation's No.2 album.
The spike in sales has been fueled by the popularity of her "Only Time," which some radio stations put in heavy rotation in
the davs after the attacks.
"If radio is doing what radio is supposed to do, it will reflect a change of mood," he added. "And certainly there has been a change of mood as a result of what happened that day."
Besides Enya, others who have seen their songs soar after the attacks include Enrique Iglesias ("Hero") and Five For Fighting ("Superman").
John Ondrasik, who constitutes the one-man act Five for Fighting, said even before the attacks, he saw that the song had been used by people going through their own particular crisis.
What has made the song particularly relevant now, he says, is that so many of us saw "ordinary people that we walk by every day . . . perform superhuman feats, so we saw the best in ourselves.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 5B
Area author tells beautiful Kansas tale
Kansas City native Maxine Clair has followed her superb collection of short stories, Rattlebone, with October Suite, a novel equally compelling and beautifully written.
Clair, a professor who visited the University of Kansas last spring, centers her story around the character October Brown, a young African-American teacher in the 1950s in Kansas City, Kan.
Commentary
Struggling to plot her own course in a world of side streets and dead ends, October must learn to navigate through the obstacles scattered across the map of her life. It's a journey she simultaneously anticipates and dreads.
October's past is a bloody one. As a 4-year-old girl, she and her older sister, Vergie, discover their father's brutal stabbing of their mother, a horrendous action performed for apparently no reason. The sisters' best guess at a motive is pure, blind rage or jealousy.
Mara Reichman
Columnist
javolaolvansan.com
With one parent in the ground and one who most likely died in prison, October and Vergie grow up with their mother's sisters in
Chillicothe, Ohio.
October is determined to escape the nightmare of her past, and in doing so, hopes to shed the bitter memories associated with her birth name, Lillian. She chooses her new name, October, in honor of the month her mother died. She then ambitiously heads to Emporia State University, looking to separate herself from the events that took place in Chillicothe.
Working diligently to establish herself as a respected third-grade teacher in the eyes of the community and the school board, October discovers making every one happy is not so easy. There are strict social rules to obey, and when she tires of jumping through hoops to satisfy others,
October decides life is meant to be enjoyed.
A nice man finds October and all is well until she learns he is married. He is unwilling to divorce his wife, even after she reveals she is pregnant with his child.
Love, she realizes, is frequently not a "two-way street" leading to a happily-ever-after circumstance. More often it is two people driving in the same direction for a while before one veers off, leaving the other to travel a solitary road in the dark. Coming to that realization, October goes back to Chillicothe where she is cared for by her aunts and sister for the duration of her pregnancy.
If Clair intends to portray the perseverance of a single woman in an era ripe with good, old-fashioned family images, she succeeds impecably. Shattered by one man, October is left temporarily overwhelmed, confused and emotionally scarred. Yet her struggles are far from over. There remain deeper, more passionate battles to be fought concerning

October Suite by Maxine Clair
the birth of her son.
Maybe she dwells too long in a state of shock. Maybe she continues to be tormented by the memory of the lover who did not love her. Or maybe she simply feels ill-prepared for motherhood. Regardless of the reason, October feels only apathy after her son, David, is born.
What should be the happiest moment in a mother's life passes by in an indifferent blur and without a second thought. October relinquishes David to the custody of Vergie and her husband, a mistake she spends the rest of her life striving to undo. As she ponders the consequences of her decision, October wonders if indeed "every life has something a person has to face, some dream they hold on to, calling it hope. And then when the time comes,
there is nothing to do but face the mistake, pay the price, and go on."
October Suite is powerful because of Clair's skillful depiction of family relationships and the bittersweet, lifelong attempts to reconcile differences while mastering the never-ending challenge of letting go in order to hold on to those we cherish. Clair successfully conveys October's thirst to be loved, both as a mother and as a woman. It is easy to understand October's yearning desire to know that she will be remembered long after she is gone.
Clair, with her poetic prose,
deftly weaves October's story
with astute attention to time and
place, sometimes with an offhand
reference to the budding
Civil Rights movement and many
welcome nods to the uniqueness
of Kansas City's succulent barbecue
and notorious jazz scene.
But what really gives October Suite its music is the beautiful harmony of its characters.

Nearly everyone who knew Henry Klooster was surprised to learn after his death at age 98 that Klooster had amassed a small fortune.
MUSKEGON, Mich. — A book keeper who lived in a modest home and wore old clothes and worn-out shoes left a large gift when he died.
His surprising legacy includes bequests of $1 million to the Community Foundation for Muskegon County and a total of $100,000 to two local churches, The Muskegon Chronicle reported Monday.
"He was a millionaire, this guy, and he never spent a penny of it until he died." Flees said.
Longtime friend Jim Fles said he "just about fell over" when he heard about Klooster's posthumous donations.
Klooster, who never married, lived in the home he grew up in until he moved into a nursing home near the end of his life, friends and relatives said.

Don't cross the draw bridge to see unbelievable flick
Ever wondered how movie studios come up with ideas for new movies?
Sometimes I swear that big-wig studio executives must be on crack when financing some of the movies that get made and are then ruthlessly forced upon the unsuspecting viewing public.
My theory that Hollywood executives have a severe drug problem is evidenced by the increasing number of new movies with stories that must have been developed during periods of intense acid trips or violent hallucinations.
ben Stiller's newest movie Zoolander is a prime example. Stiller stars as a male supermodel scheming to assassinate the king of Malaysia. It begs the question, Why God? Why?
The awful truth is that Earth holds no answer capable of rationalizing the reason behind making such blatantly stupid movies. My point (I do have one) is that movie premises these days often border on the preposterous (example, Fight Club).
Imagine the relief upon learning that Robert Redford and James Gandolfini were starring in a movie called The Last Castle about a military prison revolt. Finally, a smart film with two proven dramatic actors. A definite can't miss if there ever was one.
Well, after counting my yet-to-be-hatched chickens, I actually saw The Last Castle.
On second thought, maybe Ben Stiller as a male supermodel does make sense. At least more so than some of what goes on in The Last Castle, a sloppy, contrived action/drama that tries earnestly to touch audiences' emotions without taking the time to actually make them care.

Commentary
The usually reliable Redford stars as a highly decorated general sent to a military prison for disobeying an executive order from the president. After witnessing first-hand the atrocities carried out by the prison's tyrannical warden (Gandolfini) and his henchmen, Redford's General Irwin organizes and leads an improbable revolt aimed at forcing the warden's resignation.
To the film's credit, the prison revolt scenes are both fascinating and riveting. Oneexhilaratingaction sequence nearly makes the movie worth watching. But not quite.
It's just too hard to get past the characters who bare no resemblance to real people. I'm all about unique characters as long as there remains a certain level of plausibility.
General Irwin, an American military general respected by all who he has served with, is sentenced to 10 years in the slammer and never gives so much as a scowl. He accepts his fate with a
ho-hum smile, professing his intention to "do my time" and go home to sit on his front porch with the grandson he has never met.
One would think that a long-term prison sentence might invoke somewhat of a bad mood, but not for General Irwin. Maybe war warers are above emotions, or maybe director Rod Lurie was too busy ironing out plot threads to consider his characters as real people.
Even more suspect are the prisoners Irwin leads. It takes just one moving speech from the good general to transform these criminals into a cohesive army of soldiers, united to the core and inseparable under even the most treacherous circumstances.
General Irwin's uncanny power of persuasion would make even Hitler jealous. But I'm not buying it.
saving a movie about a prison revolt is nothing new, but it could have been effective had the characters been remotely interesting. The Last Castle doesn't come close.
Next time when confronted with a choice between watching a serious action movie such as The Last Castle or watching Zoolander, I may just opt for the latter. At least Ben Stiller is funny.

The Last Castle ★★★
Great movie of the week: The Cable Guy. Many dismissed The Cable Guy as too dark and disturbing for Jim Carrey, the king of physical comedy. True, advertisements for the movie did present it as another in a line of slapstick, goofball comedies Carrey had gained fame for. Ace Ventura: Pat Detective it isn't, but The Cable Guy hooks audiences up with enough crazy humor to fill two movies. It is truly one of Carrey's most under-appreciated performances.
Bad movie of the week: Snake Eyes. Nicolas Cage and Gary Sinise star in a movie that looked a lot better than it was. Director Brian De Palma displayed his usual visual flair, but key plot lines late in the movie depend too much on coincidence. Of course, most viewers will be too bored by that point to care.

LandScan2000 estimates populations for 900 million locations on earth. Dobson said GIS was the only software that could handle that kind of data.
"GIS is a way of representing how geographic features exist in the real world, how they interact with one another, and how they reveal processes," Dobson said.
Since the terrorist attacks, many people are aware of the need for the Land-Scan2000 program.
Scanf2000 program.
"What you're looking at is 6 billion people. Where are the world's 6 billion people and how precisely can we locate where they are?" Dobson said. "The reason we need to know that is because of threats like terrorism, but also regional conflicts; the prospect of war; all of the chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons; accidents, natural hazards, floods and earthquakes.
"When those things happen, it's absolutely imperative to know how many people are involved. That determines how many blankets and bandages you send."
The LandScan database also determines where to distribute supplies most efficiently. It would be used anytime there's a likelihood that a terrorist attack would release biological, chemical, or nuclear weapons, Dobson said.
Dobson said he came to the University this year because many on campus understood and appreciated GIS.
"The top of the administration on down is committed to GIS as an organizing theme for many of the interdisciplinary initiatives or activities on campus." Dobson said. He said he hoped to see an effort across campus to equip students in all disciplines with the ability to use GIS.
GIS can combine biological, geological, social, economic and political processes and determine how they interact with one another.
with one another.
Johannes Feddema, professor of biogeography, teaches undergraduate and graduate students working with GIS. An example of applying GIS is a study students are doing on how safe people feel on campus compared to where crime occurs. They enter all the places crime occurs and then compare it to a map of where people feel safe.
Jason Robertson, Westport, Mo., senior in environmental science, has had few chances to use GIS in the classroom.
"GIS has been introduced as an option brought to student's attention, but really hasn't gone past the surface." Robertson said. "Hopefully, in the coming years, it will become more visible in the classroom."
Dobson said if the University instituted campuswide teaching of GIS, it would increase job opportunities for graduates.
"Masters students with GJS command salaries of $20,000 more than students without it," he said.
Enrollment fraud detected
Students caught forging enrollment permits pay high price
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
The Registrar's Office caught six students who forged their permits to enroll during the first three days of main enrollment this week while using a new verification system.
Cindy Derritt, assistant registrar for enrollment services, said that four students had erased fines placed on their enrollment accounts and two had altered their enrollment times.
ten. University regisstr A 1-year-old paper reporting system makes it easy to catch altered enrollment times, Morrell said, though he wouldn't provide details on the system implemented this semester to discover hold discrepencies.
Holds might be altered because students lack funds or want to avoid the inconvenience of paying, Morrell said. But altering enrollment times is just as serious, Morrell said, as it's done to gain "an unfair advantage over other students" when choosing available courses.
Derritt said that last year, six forgers

Morrell said that every forger would be caught.

"I think it would save students a lot of heartache if they knew they're not going to get away with it," Morrell said.
Students submitting altered permits will have their classes canceled, and the next eligible time for them to enroll is at the end of main enrollment in mid-November.
"They go to the last of the line," Morrell said.

Most forgery attempts are not immediately apparent. Morrell said, so his office relies on paper reports to pick up any discrepencies after the permits have been accepted.

The office is developing another system to detect forged permits at the time the offending students sit down with enrollment clerks. Morrell said the system was planned to be up-and-running by Fall 2003.

Group discusses women's plight in central Asia
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
Arienne Dwyer brought attention yesterday to the oppression of women in central Asian countries, such as Afghanistan.
"The enemy is not Islam, but the way a country or people apply Islam," said Dwyer, assistant professor of linguistic anthropology. "There's a direct connection between extremism and the oppression of women."

Stalking victims advised to seek help of police
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
Stalking: The intentional, malicious and repeated following or harassment of another person, and making a credible threat with the intent to place such person in reasonable fear for such person's safety. (Kansas Statute 21-3438)
Emma, a University of Kansas junior who asked that her real name not be used, is the victim of a stalker, or a "secret admirer" as he calls himself.
Her stalker was sending her notes through e-mail, but things got out of hand when he sent her a death threat Sept. 12.
"When I got that e-mail, a friend and I went to the KU Public Safety Office and filed a report," she said.
Sgt. Mike Patrick of the Lawrence Police Department said anyone who thought they were being stalked should go to the police to file a standard report.

He said if victims could identify the person stalking them, the report would be forwarded to the district attorney's office.

week in school. Dolores Moseley, victim/witness coordinator for the district attorney's office, said most cases of stalking stopped after police confronted the suspected stalker.

Moseley also said stalking was a difficult charge to prosecute because of the wording of the statute.
The statute requires that the stalker present a credible threat to the victim's safety, but a credible threat is hard to define.

Eve Lamborn
The student-directed Center for Community Outreach will sponsor a 5K runwalk starting at 9 a.m. tomorrow at the Lied Center in coordination with other Make A Difference Day activities across the nation.
"Make A Difference Day is the largest day of community in the country," said Anneliese Stoever, Overland Park senior and co-director of the center.
The day's objective is improving communities and helping neighbors in need.
Organizers of the run-walk ask for either a $10 fee or a new toy donation in order to participate. All proceeds will go toward a nondenominational holiday party at the Boys and Girls Club in December with gifts for disadvantaged Lawrence children.
This will be the third consecutive year the center has sponsored a holiday party at the Boys and Girls Club.
Stoever encouraged students and Lawrence residents to take part.
"This is a great opportunity for Lawrence residents and KU students to give back to the community and improve the holidays for unfortunate children, while at the same time improving their health," Stoever said.

Stockpiling of antibiotic causes shortage concerns
Recent deaths expected to increase doctors' orders of the anthrax drug Cipro
The Associated Press
A jump of nearly 50 percent in prescriptions nationwide for the anthrax drug Cipro shows that many doctors and patients are shrugging off government pleas against stockpiling for personal use, medical and industry experts say.
In the New York City area, prescriptions nearly tripled, drug marketing data indicate.
Spurred by news reports on potential bioterrorism, sales of the antibiotic began climbing right after the Sept. 11 air attacks and weeks before the first news of an anthrax case on Oct. 4, according to a national marketing consultant that surveys pharmaceutical retailers.
The numbers are apt to rise more still as they are released in coming weeks, because the latest data go only as far as Oct. 12 before the last anthrax deaths and widespread Cirox treatment for postal workers.
Cipriva said. "I've been trying to hold back my own friends and relatives who are trying to get this stuff," said Dr. Stephen Baum, at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York. He is president of the New York Society of Infectious Diseases.
"I've been trying to hold back my own friends and relatives who are trying to get this stuff."
Dr. Stephen Baum president of New York Society of Infectious Diseases
The run on Cipro is deepening worry about potential shortages of an important drug for fighting many infections, side effects in more patients and the buildup of antibiotic resistance in the germ.
Drug and disease specialists say the winter flu season could aggravate things, because anthrax can create flu-like symptoms. They fear people will start popping stockpiled Cipro for the sniffles, and others will overwhelm the medical system with demands for treatment.
"I can't tell you what my fears are about what this is going to do to the health system. As people start to get their normal coughs and colds, their first thought is going to be ... anthrax," said Daniel Albrant, president of Pharmacy Dynamics, a pharmaceutical consulting company in Arlington, Va. He said flu shots are especially important this year.

Israel considers halting raid

JERUSALEM — Israeli forces maintained their grip yesterday on West Bank towns but pulled out of a village where a raid Wednesday sparked a bloody gunbattle in which five Palestinians were killed.
Palestinians were in U.S. criticism, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon convened his top Cabinet ministers to consider ending the weeklong invasion, which has killed dozens of people but failed to net the assassins of an Israeli Cabinet minister.

tion, which was claimed by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine as vengeance for Israel's Aug. 27 killing of their leader Mustafa Zibri.
The Palestinian Cabinet called the Israeli sweep an "ugly massacre" and declared yesterday a day of mourning. Palestinian students stood for a minute of silence, with flags flying at half-staff, and businesses and offices closed.
An Israeli government statement said security forces have arrested 42 Palestinians "directly connected with terrorist activity since the assassination.
In clashes with invading Israeli forces, 36 Palestinian have been killed, including numerous civilians. Overall, in more than a year of fighting, 721 people have been killed on the Palestinian side and 186 on the Israeli side.
Defense Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer suggested Israel might scale back its demands and pull out if Yasser Arafat would act to prevent any further attacks.

Deer searching for mates can be hazardous to drivers
by Nicole Roché and Adam
Special to the Kansan
As Kristen Baranek drove home late one night on a busy street in Olathe, she spotted a deer wandering in the middle of the road.
"When I got within about 50 feet of it, it saw my headlights," the Overland Park sophomore said. "I slowed down, but it ran toward my car anyway."
Baranek hit the deer, causing $500 worth of damage to her car. In fact, she said, the deer was luckier than she was.
"It got up and ran away," she said. "The deer was fine."
Mark Conboy, operations commander of the Kansas Turnpike, said most accidents involving deer occurred during October and November — the prime months for deer-mating season.
"It has to do with their sexual habits," Conboy said. "Deer usually hunker down and protect themselves at night, but these sexual habits cause them to do things they normally wouldn't do, like wandering at night."
Figures provided by Conboy showed that out of the 199 reported accidents involving deer on Interstate 70 last year,61 occurred during October and November.
Although hitting a deer is dangerous, Conboy said that going to extreme measures to avoid hitting a deer could result in flipping
the car, increasing the likelihood of a fatality.
Lloyd Fox, big game program coordinator for the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks, said deer could only breed once a year, and female deer called does - could only conceive during a 24-hour period. If the deer does not conceive, she will have another cycle about 28 days later. Because male deer called bucks - must find and mate with a doe at the right time in the cycle, they are constantly on the move to find a female. Fox said deer were most active in the half hour before sunrise and after sunset.
After several months, however, deer activity decreases.
Fox said the does' cycles usually take no longer than three months to end.
"When the does are in heat, the bucks are seeking them dramatically," he said. "They are running all over the countryside to find one of these does during that 24-hour period. That's the time period when we have an increase in prevalence of deer-related accidents."
Fox said more could be done to prevent deer-related accidents. He said information about safe driving during deer-mating season should be in the handbooks the state provides to people applying for a driver's license.
Lawrence Police Sgt. Mike
Patrick说 deer-related accidents within city limits weren't a major problem. But, he said both West 15th Street and Clinton Parkway were roads where deer-related accidents had occurred in the past.

Unfortunately for students, Patrick said there was no way to prevent deer from crossing roads and interfering with drivers. He said the best way for students — and deer — to stay safe, was for students to drive carefully, and watch for deer in and near the road.

threat to you, may not be threatening or scary to me," she said.
Another difficulty in pressing charges in stalking cases is lack of documentation of interaction between the victim and the suspect. Moseley said a big part of stalking is documenting when and where everything happened.
That is why the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center includes notepads and pens in every stalking kit it provides, said Kathy Rose-Mockry, director of the center.

The kits also contain information on stalking, a disposable camera to take pictures of the stalker and a whistle to use if confronted. The kits are free, and they can be picked up at a number of locations.
Stalking is a level 10 felony, Moseley said, making it the lowest type of felony.
If the stalker is a former spouse, former dating partner, or parent of the victim's child, the victim can request a Protection From Abuse order, which prohibits contact between the two parties, Rose-Mockry said.
If a stalker continues to follow or harass the victim after the Protection From Abuse order has been granted by a judge, the crime becomes a more serious level 9 felony.
level of security.
Moseley said in many cases where a woman thought she was being stalked, felony-stalking charges could not be filed, but a misdemeanor charge, such as telephone harassment or trespassing, could.
"The suspect may end up serving more jail time with the misdemeanor charge," she said.
The district attorney's office sees only one or two stalking cases a year, Moseley said, but

Watkins recommends vaccine to battle flu
By Matt Norton Kansan staff writer
Officials at Watkins Memorial Health Center are advising students who have chronic illnesses that make them high-risk for the influenza virus to call for an appointment to get immunized.
doses due to injury.
She said symptoms of influenza, which was not to be confused with the "stomach flu," were the sudden onset of aches, fever, chills, extreme fatigue and upper respiratory congestion.
Myra L. Strother, chief-of-staff at Watkins, said students who had diabetes, conditions that suppressed their immune systems, asthma or were chronically on steroids like prednisone, would have priority to receive the first shipment of 250 vaccine doses due to arrive next week.
"Many years we've had two
waves of it," she said. "Last year we had a fairly mild flu season, but it seems to go every other year, so we're anticipating we may have a fairly heavy one this year."
Strother said that once the rest of the shipments arrive, clinics will be set up at Mrs. E's, the Kansas and Burge Unions, and Strong Hall for students to get the shots. Walk-in clinics will be set up two afternoons a week at Watkins as well, Strother said.
Influenza shots will cost $12. They will protect students from the most common strains of the virus seen this season, she said. Even if students got the vaccine last year, they should get it again because the virus changes from year to year.
The remaining 2,500 doses will be sent in two shipments, in mid-November and early December, Strother said.
Chris Weiss, Olathe senior, got the flu his freshman year. He said he got the vaccine the next two years and would get it this year.
She said that she would like students going home for Thanksgiving to consider getting vaccinated before they leave.
"Usually the influenza outbreaks start on the coasts," she said. "Since a lot of our students may be going home there, we'd like them to be protected."
He said getting the virus was a big inconvenience because he had to miss class.
"It was a mild case, but it was more of a hassle to put up with it," he said.

OPINION EDITOR'S NOTE What is your vision of KU in 2030?
I am a fifth-generation Jayhawk. More than a century has passed since my great-great-grandmother graduated from KU law. As each successive generation has spent their college years on Mount Oread, the campus has looked and felt different.
different.
How will it be different for my children and for yours?
over the years, students, professors,
traditions, and buildings have come and
gone. In the next few weeks, the opinion
page will highlight how much and little
the school has changed over the years.
Then, in November, several issues will be devoted to students' and faculty members' guesses of how the University will change over the next thirty years when the children of the current crop of students will be sleeping through classes on the hill.
The opinion page is soliciting essays, artwork and even Free for All comments describing ideas of life at KU in 2030. These can be e-mailed to opinion@kansan.com or delivered to 111 Stauffer-Flint.
Submissions ideas include a sketch of Jayhawk Boulevard, a diary entry from a freshman coming up to school, a redesigned logo, an alternative use for the remenants of Wescoe Hall, a pay scale for GTAs or a sample class schedule. Have fun.

Greens' fasting demonstration ignores real reasons for protest
In the article about the KU Greens ("Organization serves cake as students try to fast," Oct. 25), I am not sure if "green" means environmentally conscious or simply inexperienced.
According to the article, a Greens' member, said he found it "curious" that the Objectivists handed out cake during the Greens' fast. In response to the Greens' position, I find it curious that you have not spoken up, let alone fasted, for the six years that the Taliban have oppressed women and denied them medical care and the right to earn a living. I find it curious that you did not fast as Afghan women were stoned to death, or had acid thrown in their faces, if they not have the proper attire, even if this means simply not having the mesh covering in front of their eyes.
I find it curious that you did not fast because Afghan women are subject to mob violence, torture and murder for merely exposing flesh of their arms, making noise as they walk or attempting to engage in scholastic pursuits.
I find it curious that you did not fast to oppose the fact that in Afghanistan, women cannot work, and those without male relatives or husbands are either starving to death or begging in the street, even if they have doctoral degrees.
I find it curious that you did not fast to bring to light the fact that depression among Afghan women is becoming so widespread that it has reached emergency levels, or that women are essentially forbidden from seeking medical care.
I find it curious that you did not fast when the Taliban ordered Hindu to carry yellow

depriving the people of Afghanistan both their history and their future.
I find it curious that you did not fast to protest the fact that the Taliban regime, in its war with the other factions, routinely carries out summary executions and indiscriminate aerial bombardment.
Dear KU Greens, your protest is misplaced, and your passion misdirected. It is all too easy to set up a card table at Wescoe Hall or in the Kansas Union and try to protest for a protest's sake — perhaps in an effort to re-live the '60s, or perhaps simply to flex your liberal enlightened muscle.
Why don't you leave the sheltered existence of the University for a few years and see what the real world is like. Then you will realize that your hunger strike is nothing more than a futile gesture in support of an oppressive regime. You need to grow up, get informed, and have a piece of cake.
I find it curious that you did not fast to protest the Taliban's destruction of traditional Afghan culture for their own political goals including prohibiting all forms of music and traditional recreation; looting and destroying the historical and cultural patrimony of the Afghan people — the Kabul Museum; reducing the centuries-old Buddhist statues in Bamiyan to rubble; and
Note to Objectivists: Read Ayn Rand a little more closely before handing out anything free except literature and thought. Objectivism is anti-charity and anti-volunteer work. If anything, you should have handed out cake for a minimal amount of money. Pay for what you get and charge for what you give. That's objectivism ... very pro-capitalism in an effort to keep the worker bees busy so the innovators can continue creating. How is free cake pushing capitalism except that it inflames the "Greens"?

I find it curious that you did not fast when the Taliban, in an effort to block supply to the people living in opposition-controlled areas, directed soldiers to shoot to death the people smuggling foods along with their animals of transport.
Safety outweighs FDA's 'discrimination'
PERSPECTIVE
Potential male donors are asked if they have ever had sex with a man since 1977. If they say yes, they are turned away. So are women who have had sex with MSM (the FDA's acronym for the previous group), intravenous drug users, and people who have traveled to Europe or Africa, among other groups. Lenore Gelb, a representative of the FDA, said this was because these groups are at a higher risk of carrying HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, than the general population.
Last month, Queers and Allies members and other students protested the Food and Drug Administration's regulations on blood donation. They made good points, but theirs was not the only side of the story.
The protesters argued that the regulations were discriminating against gay men, and turning away many potential healthy donors. They were half-right. "They screen all the blood anyway," said C.J. Snow, Lawrence freshman. If the tests were effective, he said, then none of this would be an issue. But Gelb said that HIV has a window period where even the best tests can't catch it. Even if the tests were foolproof, she said, the person running the tests could still make a mistake. "We have a blood system based on overlapping safeguards." Gelb said. "We don't rely on one safeguard."
Commentary
John
Audlehelm
Columnist
opinionkansan.com
Nor should they. The FDA last considered relaxing its blood regulations in
September 2000. It considered banning donations only from men who had had sex with men in the last five years. At the time, The New York Times reports that Andrew Dayton, an FDA medical officer, estimated that this would result in 62,300 men seeking to donate blood, and 1.7 units of HIV-infected blood entering the blood supply.
The Times quoted Dr. Michael Busch of the University of California-San Francisco as saying that of the nation's 12 million units of donated blood, about 10 HIV-infected units slip through each year, causing two to three HIV infections a year. Nobody wants any more HIV infections, Gelb said.
On the other hand, testing methods have greatly improved in the last few years. The Associated Press reported that, until 1999, all donated blood was tested for the immune system cells that fight HIV, which do not appear until 80 days after infection. But in 1999, blood banks began using nucleic acid testing, which can detect the virus itself 11 days after infection.
Even so, the FDA's advisers rejected the proposed change 7-6. The Times reports that even panelists who voted against the change encouraged the FDA to keep studying how to improve the system. Snow, Gelb and the panelists agree: The FDA's regulations turn away thousands of healthy people who want to donate blood. But at what point does this wrong outweigh the wrong of three or four new, unnecessary HIV infections a year? I don't know, but if the FDA continues its trend, the problem will probably correct itself soon enough.
You can't choose your sexual orientation, but you can choose who you have sex with, or whether you have sex at all. If you are a gay man and giving blood is that important to you, then just don't have sex with other men. The FDA will gladly accept your donation.
The protesters were right in their desire to donate blood. But they were wrong in their assertion that the regulations were unfairly discriminatory. The FDA does not discriminate against gay men any more than it discriminates against people who have a desire to use intravenous drugs or who would like to travel to Europe or Africa. The FDA discriminates against people who have actually done those things.

Local reactions to terrorist attacks depicted on murals at Kansas Union
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
Beth Rowe, coordinator of the Fine Arts Committee for Student Union Activities, explains the genesis of a piece of art now on display at the Kansas Union gallery. The piece began as an opportunity to engage in arts and crafts on the lawn of Stauffer-Flint Hall last month. Many views are represented on the piece and Rowe said it was interesting to see military students working side by side with "hippies" on the project.
Peace, justice and the ability to keep faith are some of the words and emotions represented in the community murals on display in the Kansas Union gallery.
The murals were created in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks by fine arts students and Student Union Activities to give people in the University of Kansas community a way to express their feelings.
Beth Rowe, fine arts coordinator for SUA, said the murals gave people a chance to see the different perspectives people had about the attacks.
"It's kind of a way to show how people were reacting at the time to the murals, so I think it was something people needed to see," Rowe said.
One of the murals displays phrases like "love is the answer," and has a painting of the World Trade Center Towers with an American Flag draped across them. The other mural includes pictures of President Bush, the headline, "We will not yield," and a painting of the Statue of Liberty.
Rowe said she was excited about how the KU community came together to create the work.
Sarah Bray, St. Louis senior, said she had helped other students work on one of the murals.
She said the idea for the mural came from people trying to figure out what to do after the tragedy.
"I think for a lot of artists, this was a way to release a lot of those feelings, mixed emotions and ask different questions in a more visual and expressive way," she said.
Bray said she was pleasantly surprised at how well the mural came together because it was painted by a group of people. She said it was difficult to express the ideas and emotions of different people in one work of art.
Brian Hodges, Omaha, Neb.
senior, said the mural were

descriptive and showed a lot of emotion.
The murals will be on display until Nov.9.

Friends: Meeting on line of scrimmage
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10A
Kansas State showed early interest in Reese, but not Etienne.
"They weren't recruiting me as hard they were on him," Etienne said. "I didn't want them to take him and feel like they had to come and get me too. I wasn't real disappointed or anything, we just wanted to go to the places that were best for both of us."
While the players chose teams that are struggling this season at 2-4, both have found schools where they can showcase their talents.
Reese leads all Wildcat defensive linemen with 31 tackles, including six for a loss. He's
done this despite standing 5-foot-11, more than three inches shorter than any other Wildcat lineman on the two-deep chart.
Eitienne's 55 tackles rank second on Kansas and ninth in the Big 12 Conference. What's more, Eitienne has become a leader on the defensive unit. Kansas coach Terry Allen said this was evident by the team's reaction to Eitienne's shoulder injury.
"You could see the emotional level drop when he left the field," Allen said.
In the first quarter, Kansas held Missouri scoreless and limited the Tigers to just two first downs. During the next three quarters — with Etienne standing on the sideline — Missouri
posted 38 points and 22 first downs.
The injury, a separated shoulder, kept Etienne off the field last week, but won't stop him from playing tomorrow.
Etienne will wear a protective brace to limit the range of motion in his arm and said he wouldn't miss the game.
"I've been in Kansas for a while, so I understand how big the K-State-KU game is," Etienne said. "But it'll be even bigger for me because of Tank playing on the other side."
He said family and friends were flying in for the game, including his high school coach. But most of all, he couldn't miss his chance to look
across the field at his best friend.
Etienne said it will be emotional to see his friend, but it will mostly be about fun and bragging rights.
"We drove home together in August," Etienne said. "It's about a 17 and a half hour trip. Most of what we talked about was this game. I just can't really imagine what it's going to be like on when we get out there."
"When we go home, I know somebody's going to ask us who won," he said with a competitive, mischievous grin. "As long as I can say I won, I don't care what he says."

Boss: Wildcats will pound Jayhawks
North Division Title, while finishing as the runner-up in the Heisman Trophy balloting behind Texas' standout Ricky Williams? And he walloped Kansas that season 54-6.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10A
Meanwhile, Kinsey will be lucky to lead the Hawks to a bowl game, let alone any kind of trophies, and the day he gets on the Heisman Watch List this season is the same day I start training for the 2004 Summer Olympics.
I'm thinking of trying the steeplechase. I hear that's one heck of a race.
But all things aside, let me get one thing straight right now. Kansas doesn't have a chance in hell of beating K-State this weekend.
There.I said it.
So what if the Wildcats are winless in the conference and just 2-4 overall, their worst start
since Bill Snider's first year in the program 13 years ago? Who cares that Kansas beat Texas Tech this season, while K-State was stomped 38-19 in Lubbock?
Big deal that Quarterback Ell Roberson is questionable for the ball game. We've got Marc Dunn.
Throw out all the bull, and the result is plain and simple: The Cats' winning streak over Kansas will extend to nine games, and that 21-point spread in favor of the purple might be a little generous in Kansas' favor.
Watch for a K-State rout, and maybe, just maybe, Kinsey will get some sense knocked into him. He'll realize he doesn't even be mentioned to be mentioned in the same sentence as Bishop, Heck, if need be, our defense could even show him — Zac Wegner-style.

mie Frazier.
I can't even imagine how smooth Roberson must look on the turf at KSU Stadium dodging lineman, running away from linebackers and juking defensive backs. What a beautiful sight.
Roberson must make coach Bill Snyder look silly for not playing him more last year. I remember when all of us students wanted Roberson instead of quarterback Jonathan Beasley last year and Bill wouldn't hear it.
It's a good thing my uncle Jed told me last summer that I could stay with him in Beverly Hills, Calif., when K-State goes to the Rose Bowl.
You're probably wondering how I was able to get this plea for help out to you. Well, the editor at the Kansan, Kursten
Pheils, is from Manhattan and she took a liking to me. She said I reminded her of home. Kursten said if I beat her — best two out of three — at rock-paper-scissors, she would send this letter to the Collegian.
It is pretty dark down here in the basement and she didn't notice that the index and middle fingers on each of my hands are permanently straight from years of chanting "We're number two. We're number two." So I threw scissors and she — like a journalism major — threw paper on both draws.
Please, fellow Wildcats, help me get out of here. These Jayhawks have reneged on their deal. I want to celebrate our championship-caliber team, just like we all expected them to be last summer.

Cross country prepares to be minus a runner
By Matt Norton Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas cross country team is poised to make its best showing ever at the Big 12 Championships tomorrow in Norman, Okla., but it may have to do so without one of the best runners in the country.
Senior Charlie Gruber, who qualified for the NCAA championships last year, injured his back last week, assistant coach Doug Clark said.
Gruber and sophomore Steve Vockrodt will travel to Norman, and the coaches will make a decision late tonight as to which of the two will run tomorrow.
Clark said he had been preparing the team to run without Gruber all week and if the rest of the team
ran at the level it was capable, the loss of Gruber would be offset.
Clark said Colorado was above the rest of the conference, but a number of teams would compete for the next spots. Kansas will battle Nebraska, Oklahoma State, Missouri, Texas, Texas A&M and Baylor to be in the top three.
Clark said having not seen all the teams this season, he couldn't get a feel for how the women's team might place. He does think the Jayhawks can finish in the upper division.
"I don't know as much about the other teams, only how much we've improved and where I think our girls will finish." Clark said.

Tennis team prepares for regional tourney
By Jason Hwang Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas tennis team yesterday was not the same one that faced Tulsa University a month ago.
This time, the team flourished.
The team earned a 3-1 singles record and 2-0 doubles record in the ITA Central Regional Tournament in Tulsa, Okla. In its first visit to Tulsa, the team combined for 2-5 records in both singles and doubles.
This week, the singles players were led by senior Cheryl Mallaiah, who was seeded 14th in the tournament. She defeated Kansas State's Kathy Chuda, 6-3, 4-6, 6-1. Junior Emily Haylock stunned 15th seeded Tjasa Suvak of New Mexico, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3.
Coach Kilmery Waterman said she was delighted to see the team
getting stronger in the tournament.
"Mentally, they're getting better." Waterman said. "It's a good time to start to play at this level."
On the doubles side, Brown and Mallaiah teamed up to defeat Bowman and Hancock of Wyoming with a score of 8-5. Haylock and junior Kim Lorenz breezed by Northern Arizona's Dille and Kniee 8-1. Courtney and Kristen Steinbock, who were seeded second in doubles, had a bye in the first round.
Amy Hall, assistant coach, said the proximity of other teams in competition helped boost the team's morale in Tulsa.
The ITA Central Regional tournament resumes competition at 9 a.m. today in Tulsa. The tournament runs through Sunday.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 74
Golfers want strong finish
By John Domoney Kansan sportswriter
Kansas men's golf coach Ross Randall usually sleeps when he travels with his team to golf tournaments around the country.
When the Jayhawks venture to California, however, Randall said he'd probably be too excited to rest. For Randall, a California native, a trip to the West Coast is a trip home.
But neither Randall nor his team will have much time for California fun.
Today Randall and his team begin a three-day tournament at The Nelson-Stanford Invitational in Palo Alto, Calif.
Randall said he hoped that his team wouldn't be caught napping as they finish out their fall schedule in the Golden State, Kansas
plays on Nov. 5 and 6at The Prestige at Palm Desert, Calif.
It will take a team effort for Kansas to begin
Kansas to seek its march back into the national spotlight as The Nelson-Stanford Invitational features a 15-team field that will test the team.
Randall said he was also concerned that five teams from District V, Kansas' district, were ranked ahead of the Jayhawks.
"We're trying to get ourselves
in better shape in our district," Randall said. "In the past few years we've been the second- or third-ranked team in our district. This year we're nowhere near that."
Tinny year The last two tournaments of the fall give the Jayhawks an opportunity to move up in the rankings before the spring schedule begins in February.
"We need to have a good tournament and lay the groundwork for the final tournament," Randall said. "If we play well the last two, our struggles at the beginning of the season can be forgotten."

Soccer team to battle Baylor
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas soccer team resumes Big 12 Conference play Sunday, with a 1 p.m. match against Baylor at Super Target Field.
The Jayhawks (10-5 overall, 5-3 in Big 12 Conference play) are in fourth place in the Big 12, just one spot ahead of Baylor (8-6, 4-4).
"We're three points ahead of Baylor and Missouri, who are tied for fifth," coach Mark Francis said. "Those are our last two conference games, so pretty much, if we win those two, we finish fourth. If you finish fourth, you get a better draw in the seeding (in the Big 12 tournament). You have a better chance at making it to the
second round, and anything can happen there."
After losses to Texas A&M and Texas, Kansas has dropped one spot to sixth in the central region in both the Soccer Buzz and the National Soccer Coaches' Association of America polls. Baylor is right behind at seventh in the Soccer Buzz poll and ninth in the NSCAA poll.
The Bears are riding on a fourgame winning streak, all of them conference games. They went 3-0 last week, defeating Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech in a six-day span.
With the regular season winding down, Francis said he emphasized to the team how important winning meant for the postseason
"It's one of those situations where we need to win to maintain our ranking," he said. "That will make the difference when it comes to the NCAA tournament. We don't want to drop out of that."
Notes:
Kansas is winless in five tries all-time against Baylor, going 0-4-1. They played to a 1-1 tie last season in Waco, Texas, with defender Brianna Valento scoring the only Kansas goal.
While the Jayhawks have a rare Friday off, the Bears play today against Missouri in Columbia, Mo. The winner will take sole possession of fifth place in the conference.

Rowing team to head to Iowa
By Brent Wasko Kansan sportswriter
Kansas rowing coach Rob Catloth is putting more emphasis on results as his team prepares for its third fall regatta.
The Jayhawks travel to Iowa City, Iowa, on Sunday to compete in the Head of the Iowa Regatta. The race includes a large number of universities and club teams, including Iowa Minnesota, Kansas State Drake, Tulsa, Creighton and Wisconsin.
Senior Christy Newton said the meet would be the most difficult that Kansas had faced this fall, which is the exhibition portion of the rowing season.
"There are a lot of crews there that we will race against multiple times this season," Newton said. "It's all part of an ongoing battle."
Catloth said Wisconsin was once a power in women's rowing, but that the program had fallen off the past few years. However, he said the teams at the regatta would be a good measuring stick for his squad.

He added that the heightened competition level would allow the coaching staff to use the regatta results as a motivational
tool during the winter months.
Newton said the team would start putting people in different boats according to their skill levels, racing the best rowers all in one boat.
"We've basically told them that we're looking for better results," Catloth said. "It gives us something that I can hang over their heads a little during the spring."
Kansas is coming off an impressive finish at the American Regatta two weeks ago in Kansas City, Mo. The team's top eight-boat took second place out of 16 teams, which included Kansas State.

Volleyball team seeks retribution
By Steve Laurenzo
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team has an action-packed weekend on the road with matches against Texas Tech tomorrow at the United Spirit Arena in Lubbock, Texas and Baylor on Sunday at the Ferrell Center in Waco, Texas.
The two closest matches Kansas has played this season came against these two teams, with both matches coming in Lawrence and both ending in five games. The Jayhawks lost both of these matches.
with Baylor (13-6, 5-6) for seventh place in the conference with Kansas one spot behind with a record of 13-9, 3-8.
Kansas is coming off its first home win in five tries, defeating the Oklahoma Sooners in three games on Wednesday.
Kansas sits just beneath the Red Raiders and the Bears in the Big 12 Conference standings. Texas Tech (12-8, 5-6) is tied
“It’s something we’ve got to build on now,” coach Ray Bechard said. “We’ve got a very tough weekend ahead of us. We’re not going down to Texas to hang out, we’re going down to compete and beat somebody.”
Against Oklahoma, sophomore outside hitter Abbie Jacobson suited up for the first time in five games, but did not play. Jacobson missed five matches because of a shoulder injury.
Bechard said she might play this weekend.
"She practiced pretty well Wednesday," Bechard said. "We just haven't had an opportunity to put her in a live scrimimage situation. She's so competitive and so important to our team."
Junior defensive specialist Jennifer Kraft said the 'Hawks were pleased to be leaving town with a win and were seeking revenge on two teams that beat the Jayhawks in tight five-game matches.
"It's going to be a good weekend," Kraft said. "Hopefully we're going to beat them both."

Radio star adjusts to going deaf, continues show using new system
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The onset of deafness would paralyze most radio personalities. Rush Limbaugh likens it to a midlife crisis.
"I turned 50 in January," the talk show host said in an interview. "A guy who turns 50 goes out and buys a red Corvette and hunts chicks to prove he's still youthful. Mine is to still do this, basically deaf, and do it better than anybody else."
Limbaugh's Oct. 8 announcement that he's lost most of his hearing was a surprise. That it didn't shake his self-confidence shouldn't be.
Many of his listeners sensed
Still, the handicap is a career-defining challenge for one of the biggest names in radio (along with Howard Stern and Paul Harvey).
nere was something wrong with his voice this summer before Limbaugh acknowledged it. Limbaugh admitted feeling his voice sometimes "sounded like a chipmunk."
Limbaugh's voice still sounds as if it's descending from the mountaintop, as it did yesterday when he railed against the media for overplaying anthrax reports. He also suggested former President Clinton might have sent vials of salmonella to himself "to get into the action."
"Nothing's stopped me from talking, and that's what I get paid to do," he said. "Nobody's paying me to listen."
His hearing loss was gradual over the past year. Limbaugh is totally deaf in his left ear and can faintly distinguish sounds — but not voices — in his right. Diagnosing it as autoimmune inner-
ear disease, doctors are treating him with drugs. If that's unsuccessful, the next step is to implant an electronic device in his ear.
Most of his shows originate from a studio near his South Florida home. An elaborate system has been set up to take calls from viewers. With the help of a slight tape delay, a caller's words are transcribed onto Limbaugh's computer screen. In a separate message box, his producers indicate whether a caller is amiable or angry. Limbaugh watches a dial that records sound waves to see if the caller is talking or has stopped.
Limbaugh said he intended to fill out his contract with the Premiere Radio Network, which was renewed this summer through 2009 for the highest price ever in radio syndication, reportedly $250 million.

Football game will test old friends
Former teammates will play for fun, bragging rights
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
Kansas linebacker Leo Etienne didn't call his best friend after injuring his shoulder last week. He didn't have to.
"He feels me," the junior said of his lifelong friend, Kansas State defensive tackle Tank Reese. "I knew he knew what was going on with me."
Through little league and high school in Florida, to junior college in Kansas, Etienne and Reese have developed an air-tight bond. However, the friends will be on opposite sides of the field tomorrow as
they compete in the Sunflower Showdown.
Their story began on a youth baseball team in Auburndale, Fla., a town of about 9,000 an hour west of Tampa in Central Florida.
The two struck a friendship immediately. When they reached the seventh grade and interscholastic football competition began, their talent turned them into a formidable tandem.
In high school, both received All-State recognition and represented their state in the Florida Georgia all-star game as seniors.
After graduation, both took their talents 1,500 miles away to Hutchinson Community College.
Being far away from home and minorities in predominantly white central Kansas, Etienne said he
and Reese grew even closer off the field.
On the field, they emerged as stars in the difficult Jayhawk Conference, which produced two of the last three junior college national champions.
"They were probably the two best players in their conference at their positions," said Eric Schroeder, a defensive assistant at Hutchinson and former graduate assistant under Terry Allen at Kansas.
Schroeder said Etienne and Reese were the leaders of the team.
After leading the Blue Dragons to a 14-6 record in two years, Schroeder said schools were lining up to recruit the two all-conference performers.

'Hawks look to end eight-year drought against K-State
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
Most college football teams get geared up to play a rival school only once every fall. But for Kansas, a rivalry weekend will return tomorrow.
For the second consecutive Saturday, the Jayhawks will tangle with a nemesis of the Big 12 Conference. Last week, Kansas came up short in the 38-34 border war home loss to Missouri. Tomorrow, the Jayhawks will get a shot at the school who has owned the last eight Sunflower Showdowns and dominated the
state of Kansas in college football — the Kansas State Wildcats.
The words alone make Kyle Grady cringe.
"I hate K-State," Kansas' 6-foot-5,305-pound junior offensive lineman said. "I probably hate K-State more than I hate Missouri. But we always look forward to playing those guys. If we do our job, it puts us in preparation to win.
"We think that this year we have a better chance than ever to win."
No. 2 Oklahoma in its nail-biting 38-37 loss Sept. 29, the Wildcats have gone winless. Their offense disappeared Oct. 6 in a 10-point loss to Colorado. Two weeks later they got outplayed in the fourth quarter before falling 31-24 to Texas A&M. And in between those two home defeats, they were stunned by Texas Tech in Lubbock 38-19 — a team Kansas beat on the same field just one week before.
Kansas' confidence stems from K-State's struggles. After fighting
Seeing them fall to Texas Tech convinced Kansas sophomore Carl Ivey that the Wildcats were not immortal. It was not the
untouchable club that trounced his Jayhawks 52-13 last Oct. 7 at Memorial Stadium. It was not the same team that shelled Kansas 50-9 in 1999. It was now, Ivey said, a team Kansas could beat.
"It was real shocking seeing them losing to Texas Tech," the starting right cornerback said. "We believe that we can beat them since they've lost a few games this year. We just got to stay in attack mode all four quarters."
Kansas coach Terry Alien, beleaguered and distracted from a week-long fasco concerning his job status at Kansas, said tomorrow's tussle with K-State would give him a chance to see how much his players hungered for that third win.
Allen has gone 0-4 in the Sunflower Showdown.
The Jayhawks understand the game's magnitude. A win would still leave the door open to a bowl
"Are we going to nose dive or are we going to peak back up," Allen said Wednesday. "The intensity is there. We've had a good week of practice. And our guys know that from a record standpoint that K-State is struggling."
possibility. A loss would cloud Kansas' chance of playing in December for the first time in six seasons.
But tomorrow's game is more than just four quarters of football, said junior linebacker Leo Etienne. It is about pride.
"We are hungry for a win, and the rivalry makes it even more special," Etienne said. "We want it. I don't plan on going over there to lose."

Senate meets to dialogue on minority recruitment
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
Creating a support network for minority students and moving the Multicultural Resource Center to a centralized location were suggestions presented last night as ways of improving minority recruitment and retention at the University of Kansas.
A group of about 25 student senators, admissions faculty members and students gathered together last night to discuss ways the University could attract more minority students.
Claudia Mercado, assistant director of admissions and scholarships, said the task of recruiting more minority students could not fall solely on the admissions department. However, she said the department was doing what it could.
"It's going to be slow, but it's going to be progressive," Mercado said of increasing the minority student base.
She said one of the problems was that many minority students viewed the University of Kansas as a place that didn't care about having a diverse student population.
"The image of what the University of Kansas is in Southwest Kansas is completely different than from other places," Mercado said.
Jamel Bell, graduate senator said the group wanted to leave the discussion with an overall idea of how minority recruitment and retention problems could be solved.
"We can get together and discuss all we want, but we need to hold groups responsible for why this isn't working," Bell said. "I want to know, as a minority student, what can you do for me KU?"
Some of the ideas the group came up with included improving communication about minority recruitment and retention through all departments and groups at the University, creating more publicity for cultural and minority groups and having more interactions between students and prospective students.

Lisa Pinamonti, associate director of administration and scholarships, said the push to recruit more minority students had progressed in recent years. She said she was trying to recruit more minority high school students to come to the University.
the University. Pinamonta said one of the things she had done was to send birthday cards to minority students, so she could show those students they were welcome at the University.
"We're trying to be creative," Pinamonti said. "Something like those things do make differences."

Enrollment problems eased
OTS
Shorter lines help diminish some frustrations
Contact Daley at 864-4810
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
Before Josh Strange even had the chance to enter the enrollment center, he was told to turn around.
"Oopsie! You have a parking hold," said Donna Conway, a temporary enrollment employee stationed in front of the center's door, after scanning Strange's permit to enroll.
Strange, Dallas senior, rolled his eyes at the news.
Students wait outside the enrollment center to get their schedules for next semester. The enrollment center gives students an appointment time to fill out their schedules so waiting can be kept to a minimum.
"This is going to be a pain." Strange said.
But Cindy Derritt, associate registrar for enrollment services, said enrollment would be even more of a pain for students without the new strategies the office has implemented to help ease students' enrollment frustrations.
Temporary employees, like Conway, are stationed at the door of the enrollment office, located at 151 Strong Hall, to check permits for holds, dean's stamps and appointment times. Derritt said this system helped identify problems before students had waited in line for long.
But the improvements don't stop at the center door.
Across the hall from the enrollment center is an office, 154 Strong Hall, for students needing replacement permits. Also new this semester is a "closed class hotline." By dialing 864-4259 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, Derrick said students could find out whether any classes they intended to sign up for were full.
Some students agree the enrollment process has taken less time this semester.
Michelle Geesaman, Goddard senior, said she enrolled around 1 p.m. Friday — what Derritt considers peak traffic time at the enrollment center
and was out in five minutes.
and was out in five minutes.
"It was easy," Geesaman said.
"It gets easier each year."
Derritt said upperclassmen usually had an easier time enrolling
"The seniors and graduate students are enrolling at this point," she said. "When we get to the sophomores and freshmen, the classes are filling up.
As classes close, the delay gets longer and longer."

Time to change clock, check smoke alarm
By J. R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
Along with turning the clock back one hour to standard time, some people use the end of daylight saving time as a cue to check the batteries in their smoke alarms.
Rich Barr, fire marshal for Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical, said he supported the relationship between checking smoke alarms and changing clocks.
He said that the problem with battery-operated smoke alarms was maintenance and that checking them at a regular time each year was a good idea.
"Don't wait," Barr said. "The purpose is to try to get people to think, 'Isn't there something else I should do when I change the clock?' Some people won't go through the process and wait until a low battery beeps, then unplug the battery and forget about it."
Andrew Luxem, Topeka sophomore, lives in a duplex on Massachusetts Street that was originally a house. He said that when he moved
Luxem said he was confident the alarm would work in case of a fire. However, he said he liked that people were reminded to check or change smoke alarm batteries when turning back the clock, just in case.
in, his landlord told him he had changed and checked the batteries in the duplex's smoke alarm.
“It's a good way to get the message across,” Luxem said. “It's a good way to incorporate it so people do that.”
According to the National Fire Protection Association's smoke alarm safety tips, batteries should be installed in all alarms once a year or when the alarm beeps to warn the battery is dying.
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said none of the equipment in residence halls would have to be changed.
"It's all hard wired into an electrical system," Stoner said.

By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
About 70 KU students came out Saturday to make a difference.
The students participated in the Center for Community Outreach's 5 kilometer run-walk at the Lied Center as part of the national Make A Difference Day activities.
COMING IN TOMORROW'S KANSAN
Each participant brought a $10 donation or an unwrapped gift that will go to the nondenominational holiday party for disadvantaged children at the Lawrence Boys and Girls Club, 1520 Haskell.

"A walk in the morning is a great way to help disadvantaged children and get to meet new people," she said.
This was the first time Gerhart had participated in Make A Difference Day. She saw flyers in the Kansas Union about the walk, and she said she thought it would be a good way to get involved.
It was also the first time Robin Anderson, Topeka junior, participated. She was walking with about five other people from KU Young Democrats.
"We decided it was a good community service project." Anderson said.

Bodies of two missing men found in Norton reservoir
NORTON — The bodies of two men missing since their boat capsized two weeks ago have been recovered from the Keith Sebelius Reservoir in this northwestern Kansas town.
The body of Somnuck Amphphonephong, 54, was found Saturday afternoon, and his son, Kittikone Xaiyarath, 23, was pulled from the lake Thursday, said Norton County Sheriff Troy Thomson.
The bodies were both found in the Cement Cove area of the reservoir.

Small quakes, aftershocks rattle Los Angeles area
LOS ANGELES — A magnitude-3.7 earthquake rumbed through much of the Los Angeles area yesterday morning and was followed by a series of smaller aftershocks.
There were no reports of damage or injuries from the temblors. The shaking was felt from Compton 25 miles north to the San Fernando Valley.
The first quake struck at 8:27 a.m. and was centered four miles southeast of Inglewood and nine miles south of the Los Angeles Civic Center.
It was followed at 8:29 a.m. by a magnitude-3.0 aftershock centered just a mile away.
More than a dozen aftershocks were recorded. One, a magnitude-2.8 temblor, struck at 9:21 a.m. in an area one mile north of the Newport-Inglewood Fault Zone, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
USGS seismologist Sue Hough said the earthquakes were all related and could be followed by more seismic activity.

United Airlines executive resigns

CHICAGO — United Airlines chief executive James Goodwin resigned yesterday, saying it was time "for a new leader to guide the organization" that has struggled greatly since the Sept. 11 attacks.

In a statement released yesterday, Goodwin said he was "proud to have contributed to the tremendous growth of United during my 34 years... United is a great company and it is the right time for a new leader to guide the organization through the challenges that lie ahead."

U.S. freezes charity account, claims groups fund terrorists
CAIRO, Egypt An organization of Islamic charities denied yesterday that its members could be funneling money to terrorists, and urged the United States to give evidence to back up its suggestions that they are doing so.
Since the Sept. 11 attacks, the United States has frozen assets of one Saudi charity, the Wafa Humanitarian Organization, and U.S. officials have said Islamic charities are a key source of fund-raising for Osama bin Laden and his terrorist organization, al-Qaida.
"We dare anyone to prove that any Islamic charity organization is involved or has supported any terrorist body," said Hamid bin Ahmed al-Rifai, head of the Saudi-based International Islamic Forum for Dialogue.

Lock-in provides alcohol-free alternative for new greeks
By Jeremy Clarkson Kansan staff writer
J. E. WILSON/KANSAN
KILDERN MANOR
Robinson Gymnasium became the site for the fourth-annual GAMMA lock-in on Friday, which was to educate new Greek members in finding alternative activities to drinking and to meet other new members of the Greek community.
Many activities, including rock climbing, add to the excitement of the GAMMA lock-in. The event, filled with alternatives to drinking, was held Friday evening at Robinson Gymnasium.
GAMMA stands for Greeks Advocating Mature Management of Alcohol.

The new members filed into the gymnasium, where they were given free T-shirts, pizza and beverages, and participated in a variety of activities. Once all the members were in attendance, the doors were shut for three hours and members were unable to leave until 1:00 a.m.
Activities for the evening included basketball, ping-pong, rock climbing, volleyball, a bouncy boxing ring, a deejay and beer goggles. Toward the end of the evening, there was a raffle draw for prizes that included Mountain Dew, gift certificates, DVDs and a DVD player.
Heidi Lange, GAMMA cochair and Lawrence junior, said the goal for the evening was to target new members and to educate them about alcohol.
"Hopefully they realize they don't have to be drunk to have a good time," she said.
Lange said although lock-ins didn't occur often, she hoped Friday's activities would encourage students to attend activities such as Hawk Nights, which do not promote drinking.
Eric Schelker, Kansas City Mo., freshman, crawled out of the bouncy boxing ring after a long brawl with his friend. He said it was tiring but fun, and that he was glad he went to the lock-in because he understood the importance of the night.
"I hope the kids get something out of it and we get the positive message out they can have a good time while maturely managing alcohol." Dakhl said.
"I think they are getting their message out," Schelker said.
Chris Dakhil, Interfraternity Council vice president of public relations, said the turnout for the evening was what was expected. The Wichita senior said the people who helped with the project did an awesome job.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
PERSPECTIVE
MISUNDERSTOOD OBJECTIVISM
Dear editor,
Ben edition.
In response to the column "Greens' fasting demonstration ignores real reasons for protest" (Oct. 26), I would like to encourage Mr. Kenyon to take his own advice. I agree the KU Greens' protest was misdirected and ill-informed — his conception of Objectivism was the same.
Kenyon said that Objectivism is ant-charity and anti-volunteering, which is thoroughly inaccurate. Rather, Objectivism is anti-enslavement — it is against obligatory charity and mandatory volunteer work. It is a philosophy that says that you should act in own interests. If you get involved with a charity or volunteer organization because you care about it — terrific. But the idea that you have a duty or obligation to sacrifice yourself to those around you is absolutely immoral.
Our feast is a prime example of this. When I chose to set this up, I wanted to get as many students involved as I could, and nothing draws like free food. So our group provided cake, and in return, I got the results that I wanted — people reading about our position and our philosophy, eating American Flag cake as they stand in front of a ridiculous fast.
stand in front of a crowd.
On the other hand, had I done this because I thought I had some personal obligation to supply the University with food, then Kenyon would have been correct. It would have been completely against the philosophy of Objectivism.
As far as our free cake being contrary to capitalism — there are other ways to support capitalism than selling cake. I might have been able to make a very moderate sum of money, but that was not my goal at all. Capitalism is simply a political system that leaves men free to trade value for value without the threat of government coersion — my value was the cake, their value was their attention.
Rachelle Cauton Overland Park junior President of KU Objectivists
Facts, logic don't stop protesters at the School of the Americas
This November several KU students will join with hundreds of other misguided activists in protesting the School of the Americas. They will be discouraged by nothing: not crappy weather, not nay-saying columnists, and certainly not pesky "facts" and logic." They are on a mission to stop "civilian-targeted warfare" by shutting down a school that is designed to "[teach] an army how to kill its own people." And they claim that the weight of evidence supports their cause.
SOA Watch and the true believers here on campus are always quick to point out that 600 HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATORS graduated SOA. But they never bother to provide any kind of context for that number. And, perhaps more important, they never explain how it is that the school makes this human rights violations occur. So instead of a substantive critique of specific policies and programs, we are left with vague inundees, emotional case studies and specious assumptions.
However, it doesn't take much to see through the protestors' smoke and mirrors. For their story to be plausible the following ought to be true: A significant percentage of SOA graduates should be human rights violators. The program at the school ought to be the catalyst by which otherwise well-adjusted people become human rights abusers. And the presence of its graduates should be an effective predictor of the likelihood of human rights abuse. Let's look at each item in turn.
Let's look at it again.
If SOA is a school that teaches human rights abuse, one would expect that at the very least a significant minority of the students would, in fact,
Robert Chamberlain Columnist opinionkansan.com
Commentary
become human rights abusers. However, according to SOA Watch there are about 60,000 graduates and only 600 suspected human rights abusers. Another way to say that is that 99 percent of SOA graduates have never even been accused of violations of human rights. Therefore, it appears that if SOA is designed to teach "an army how to kill its own people," then it does a remarkably poor job of it. On

...If SOA is designed to teach "an army how to kill its own people," then it does a remarkably poor job of it.
the other hand, if it is supposed to familiarize students with U.S. military practices and norms, it appears that it is successful in inculcating or reinforcing U.S. values 99 percent of the time.
If SOA is supposed to cause these well-adjusted people to become raving psychopaths, then one would also expect SOA graduates to have a higher incident of psychopathic behavior than the general population. But let's extend the math from above. One percent of school's graduates exhibit psychopathic tendencies. Interestingly enough, 1 percent of the population (according to Dave Grossman, Ph.D.) is also psychopathic. Thus, SOA graduates are no more likely to be evildoers than the guy sitting next to you in class
Finally, it is undeniable that some countries participating in SOA have had massive human rights abuses. That the U.S. was not more vociferous in its opposition to these practices is certainly a black mark on American history. However, it is equally important to note that there are human rights abuses all over the world in countries that have never even heard of the school — Cuba, Cambodia, Mozambique, Sierra Leone, Bosnia, etc. These awful crimes have been with us since the dawn of time, and to pretend that they wouldn't have occurred without the existence of SOA is disingenuous, to say the least.
I issue a challenge to the anti-SOA advocates on campus: Explain yourselves. Demonstrate the underlying mechanism by which the school creates evil. Elucidate the specifics of your position. Reconcile your conclusion with your seemingly incommensurate evidence. Don't resort to emotional stories. Don't continue to spew data without any context or analysis. Show KU once and for all that SOA is undeniably evil on the basis of cold, hard facts.
If you can really do this, then all KU students, including myself, should be happy to join you at Ft. Benning. If not, then not only can your voices be ignored, they ought to be.

Greens fast to show the government a better way
more reflective appraisals. Fasters had their own reasons for fasting, but we shared some motivations. We hoped that fasting would raise awareness about the Afghan refugee situation, foster discussion about solutions to a complex problem, and demonstrate that not everyone approves of our government's response. Activities during the fast ranged from guest speakers to group discussion and brainstorming.
Members of the KU Green Party fasted last week to raise awareness of the suffering of the Afghan people. Many may ask "why fast?" Fasting has a strong tradition worldwide as a means to promote reflective thought and peace.
Critics of the fast, including Kansan guest columnist Jay Kenyon ("Greens" fasting demonstration ignores real reasons for protest,"Oct. 26), suggested that our actions were misdirected, naive and futile. Kenyon also criticized us for not fasting to raise awareness of the atrocities in Afghanistan before Sept. 11.

repressive regimes. The abuses of the Taliban are no exception. Many of us have organized or signed petitions, written letters, and taken part in other political activities to stop the horrific injustices in Afghanistan. Our government has ignored our pleas and even aided the Taliban when it was "in our nation's interests" to do so. Kenyon's assertion that we ignored Taliban oppression of women, Hindus, and others in Afghanistan is patently false.
Some may wonder why we chose to fast now. The current situation in Afghanistan is distinctive because it is our government that is destroying Afghan homes, food supplies, and international aid efforts; we are creating new
Kenyon wrote that our "hunger strike is nothing more than a futile gesture in support of an oppressive regime." Yet, he turned a blind eye to the millions in aid our government has given to the Taliban. He also turned a blind eye to our government's complacency when women were being tortured and religious monuments destroyed.
refugees and exacerbating an already-terrible humanitarian crisis. Our failures must not be ignored or excused as acceptable costs in the hunt for terrorists.
The current bombing is making the situation worse. War does not stabilize a region. Many reputable and "real world" organizations recognize the need to stop the bombing, including the United Nations, Oxfam America, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan, and the Revolutionary Association of Women of Afghanistan (RAWA). RAWA, the group best qualified to speak on the situation, explains the counter-productivity of our attacks on its Web site (www.rawa.org): "The continuation of U.S. attacks and the increase in the number of innocent
civilian victims not only gives an excuse to the Taliban, but also will cause the empowering of the fundamentalist forces in the region and even in the world."
Even if the U.S. bombing succeeds in toppling the Taliban, what hope do Afghanistan's citizens have? The U.S.-backed Northern Alliance is also accountable for deplorable human rights abuses. What will make them change their condemnable behavior if they take control of Afghanistan?
We as greens hold firm in the belief that our government's actions are not ethical or effective. Not all of us are pacifists, but we do stand united against the bombing. The people of Afghanistan must not be made to suffer for the wrongs of the Taliban, Al-Queda, or bin Laden. So, when critics like Kenyon suggest we should "have a piece of cake," we'll politely pass. There is a lot to be done.

U.S. strikes kill 13 civilians
The Associated Press
KABUL, Afghanistan American air strikes against the Taliban spilled over yesterday into residential neighborhoods of the Afghan capital, killing 13 civilians - the second time in as many days that missiles have accidentally hit homes and killed residents.
Later yesterday, U.S. jets were back over the slies of the beleaguered Afghan capital, and strong explosions could be heard in the direction of the main road from Kabul to the opposition-controlled Bagram air base.
Witnesses said 10 people were killed in the Qali Hotair neighborhood on Kabul's northern edge. An Associated Press reporter saw six bodies, four of them children.
Three other people died near an eastern housing complex called Macroyan, eyewitnesses said.
In Washington, Pentagon spokesmen had no immediate
comment on the latest strikes and the civilian casualties involved. It has stressed repeatedly that civilians were never deliberately targeted.
The strikes that hit Kabul came only 12 hours after stray bombs landed Saturday evening behind the rebel military alliance's battle lines north of the capital. Areas behind Taliban lines were also reported hit.
Eight or nine civilians were killed—most of them in alliance-held areas, according to witnesses.
In neighboring Pakistan, where the government has had to work to keep a lid on pro-Taliban unrest, there was growing concern over civilian casualties.
"We feel the military action should possibly be short and targeted in order to avoid civilian casualties," Pakistan's president, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, said after meeting German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder.
Pakistan's main radical Islamic party vowed to step up the challenge to Musharraf, saying it and other religious groups would meet today to plan a 10-day protest in the capital to topple the president.
Rebels confronting Taliban troops north of the capital had been complaining publicly that the American air strikes weren't doing enough to advance their cause. It wasn't known if Saturday's heavy raids were in response to that.
The opposition's spokesman, Abdullah, who uses only one name, called the damage to the Taliban front lines from Saturday's raids significant and said if such heavy bombardment were routinely employed, "the objective of eradicating terrorism could be achieved much quicker."
the civilian deaths, he said,
were an unfortunate mistake.
"Of course we know this wasn't a deliberate targeting." Abdullah said. "We have to coordinate."
Memorial service held for victims at World Trade Center ruins
The Associated Press
"They were innocent and they were brutally, viciously, unjustly taken from us," said Egan, the leader of New York's Roman Catholic archdiocese.
NEW YORK - With the smoldering gray rubble of the World Trade Center a sorrowful backdrop, the families of people killed in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks gathered yesterday for a memorial service filled with prayer and song.
Thousands of mourners, some holding photographs of their loved ones, rose from their plastic chairs as Police Officer Daniel Rodriguez opened the service with "The Star-Spangled Banner." Cardinal Edward Egan delivered the invocation, standing at a podium draped in black.
"We are in mourning, Lord
We have hardly any tears left to shed," he said.
"We are neighbors, we are family members and we are friends — and we hurt," said Imam Izak-El Mu'eed Pasha, the Police Department's Muslim chaplain. "Let us stand together and pray and not let our faiths be used in such a way... They cannot use our faiths and do these terrible things."
For only the second time in the seven weeks since the attack, the round-the-clock recovery and demolition work at the site was halted to allow for the memorial service. The first time was on Oct. 11 at 8:48 a.m.—one month to the minute after the first hijacked plane struck the trade center's north tower—when a moment of silence was observed.
city officials estimated the
crowd at 9,200, far more than expected. Mourners filled the rows of chairs to capacity; some people were forced to stand.
Although water was sprayed on smoldering spots in the wreckage before the service, a smoky cloud hung over the crowd.
crowd.
Josh Vicente, a teenager who lost his uncle, 30-year-old Tom Pecorelli, said that not having a body to bury had made the death particularly difficult. Pecorelli, a cameraman for Fox Sports, was a passenger aboard American Airlines Flight 11, which crashed into the north tower.
"We didn't see him again," Vicente said. "There was no coffin, no funeral. It still seems like he'll call again."
Later, families were given wooden urns by the city containing soil from ground zero.

Dietary Dilemma

A typical fast food meal often includes a burger and french fries. According to Ann Chapman, a registered dietitian at Watkins Memorial Health Center, "The key is supplementing fast foods with fruits or vegetables to get all the food groups in one meal."
Burgers and fries might not be the healthiest meals but energy bars aren't always a good alternative BY JACQUELINE LENART KANSAN FEATURE WRITER
It's convenient, effortless and, well, fast.
Lastyear,$119billion of consumers'dollars went toward fast food, according to the National Restaurant Association.
Funds for higher education, computers and cars all took a back seat to the amount paid for greasy hamburgers, tacos, fried chicken and pizza.
Eric Schlosser, author of Fast Food Nation, said Americans spent more on fast food than on "movies, books, magazines, newspapers, videos and recorded music—combined."

Erin Wynkoop, Topeka sophomore, shops for an energy bar at Juice Stop. Some nutritionists say only high-performance athletes should eat the bars — not average students before a light workout.
With more than 300,000 fast food businesses clogging shopping centers,the industry is booming. Another industry doing well is energy bars, pulling in $600 million yearly, according to ABC News.

Chris Marlow, St. Louis junior, visits his favorite fast food restaurant for lunch. Marlow said he often ate fast food because it was quick and easy.
Large amounts of money are being spent on fatty foods: hamburgers and French fries — but money also goes to energy bars, which are supposedly healthful.
However, many consumers are eating poorly because nearly 33 percent of American adults were categorized as overweight, according to The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
"Many students come in by self-referral to seek advice for dieting as well as many suffering from eating disorders," said Ann Chapman, a registered dietitian at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
for — high performance and for The Center for Science in the Public Interest in Washington D.C. say energy bars are best used by athletes engaging in long-term exercise — not by people jogging or quickly visiting the gym.
So how can energy bar companies claim the bars are good for students? The answer is simple. Energy bars are beneficial to the people they were originally created for — high-performance athletes.
That advice can be valuable. For fast food is not as bad for student health as is often portrayed, and energy bars are often overrated.
tourists warn students
Getting a chunky chicken salad from Burger King, for example, will add up to fewer calories and grams of fat than a Balance Bar, but the salad contains higher cholesterol and sodium. A Hershey's Milk Chocolate bar and Crispy M&Ms correlate with the Balance Bar and Luna Bar
Checking nutrition labels and restaurant menus are necessary steps in regulating fats, calories and cholesterol and are recommended by various health and fitness magazines. In comparing some fast food and candy to energy bars, it's seen that all the foods contain ingredients that nutritionists warn students about.

"If you're looking for a snack or pick-me-up after a game of tennis, save your money and go for a bagel instead."
"If students are looking for a quick snack to hold them over between meals, a NutriGrain bar or some apples or baby carrots are fast and easy and much cheaper than energy bars," Chapman said.
According to nutritionists, the center's advice is good. Jumping on the bandwagon and eating energy bars as a replacement for meals is not the healthiest option. A single bar can provide more calories than required for the average person.
The average recommended caloric intake per day is 2,700 for men and 2,000 for women -based upon body height, frame size, gender and energy needed to keep internal functions well-maintained.
"It's beneficial for my health to watch what I eat and exercising allows me to feel better and be more energetic," said Dorit Scherman, Norman, Okla., junior.

However, there are ways to eat healthily from the fast-food window. Most restaurants now offer meals with a wider calorie range.
Chapman, recommend monitoring calories in individual meals in order to maintain the recommended daily calorie intake.
In a wider calorie range Smaller portions can help reduce calories as well
"The key is supplementing fast foods with fruits or vegetables to get all of the food groups in a meal," Chapman said. "You'll eat less fast food because you'll already have something in your stomach when you go to the restaurant."
It is the decision of consumers to make educated choices about what they eat, and resources are available to help monitor food.

Despite losses recall Allen's love of game
Three days before his team was once again drilled by Kansas State, Terry Allen walked into his weekly press conference and noticed something was amiss.
The table that the beleaguered Kansas coach sits at to address the media had been moved four feet closer to the back of the room.
Allen immediately noted the change.
"They've got me against the wall this week," Allen said. "How fitting."
it's so easy to blust Allen these days that he's even dissing himself. There's only one story left in this waste of a football season, and it has more to do with the unemployment pages than it does with football.
The story grew bigger on Saturday, when the Jayhawks were pasted 40-6 by a bad Wildcat team. In that game, Kansas displayed exactly what poorly-coached football teams do. The Jayhawks committed stupid penalties, jumping offsides on a key third-down play in the first quarter. They looked completely unprepared and overwhelmed, and couldn't even get the coin toss right (Kansas stupidly kicked off and didn't get the wind in both halves).
Needless to say, Allen is a dead man walking, slowly pacing down a career green mile that will culminate in a pink slip some day around November 25 — the day after the Jayhawks' final contest against Wyoming.
Still, you have to admire the way Allen has handled his final days as the Kansas football coach.
He has taken the criticism head-on and handled the adversity with tolerance and grace. While vultures circle above, Allen has fought back by showing his great character and pride.
The troubled coach remains unbelievably optimistic, attacking his job with the excitement and vigor of a new hire, and staying in his office to the early morning trying to figure out a way to turn this thing around. The lack of sleep and the losses are taking a toll on Allen, but his enthusiasm and love for the game of football hasn't waned.
Kansas fans should be disgusted with themselves by the way they've acted for the past few weeks. We're watching a man about to lose his job, and some Jayhawk fans couldn't be happier about it. Internet chat rooms celebrate Allen's impending doom and poke fun at the weary coach's job status. Fans heckle him in his own stadium. One gutsy Jayhawk supporter called Allen's radio show last week and asked him to resign on the spot.
and asked me to look. There's a fine line between looking forward to the future of Kansas football and dancing on Allen's grave. Jayhawk fans have crossed it.
Allen, meanwhile, will coach Kansas football for just four more weeks. And I hope, in the end, that he will be remembered as much for the way he acted in the last month of his tenure as how he coached for the first five years.

Showdown turns to let down
By Jeff Denton Kansan sportswriter
MANHATTAN - Minutes after Kansas State's 40-6 shellacking of Kansas on Saturday, a pack of reporters crammed into a small shack beside the visiting locker room at the Wildcats' Wagner Field.
As Kansas coach Terry Allen approached the long wooden table in the back of the room, he had to slither his way through the swarm of clunky video cameras and restless bodies.
Allen was baffled by his newest battle the media's attention.
"It's bad enough out there," Allen said, sandwiched between two journalists. "This is scarier."
Allen's offense sputtered in front of a crowd of 50,101 in Manhattan. The Kansas offense gained 212 yards, went three for 16 on third downs and managed three yards on 12 plays in the third quarter.
For the first time all season, Kansas (2-5) failed to score a touchdown. Johnny Beck's two field goals accounted for all its points. The freshman kicker also missed twice during the game.
missed twice during his game. K-State running back Josh Scooby muscled 45 yards on his first carry, while the Kansas running attack moved 47 yards the entire game.
"We're not as good offensively as we would certainly like to be," Allen said. "But the moral of the story is that when you dig a hole against K-State, you are going to suffer because they are a very difficult team to come back against."
The hole was dug on the first drive of the game by the moves of Scobey, K-State's 6-foot, 205-pound senior. He humbled his way for all but 12 yards on K-State's 77-yard touchdown march.
Three minutes into the game, K-State was ahead by a touchdown.
After Kansas went three-and-out the first time it touched the football, K-State starting quarterback Marc Dunn found Ricky Lloyd wide open at the two-yard line. The receiver wrestled through cornerback Carl Ivey's tackle and fell into the end zone.

Hilla Rantala, senior forward, beats a Baylor defender to the ball during a 3-0 Jayhawk victory yesterday afternoon at Target Field.
The Kansas soccer team is heating up at just the right time.
After pounding Drury 5-0 last Tuesday, the Jayhawks kept the momentum going by defeating Baylor 3-0 yesterday at Super Target Field.
Kansas (11-5 overall, 6-3 in Big 12 Conference play) pounded out 14 shots on Baylor, while the Bears only managed seven. Freshman goalkeeper Meghan Miller saved three shots en route to her third shutout of the season.
"I was really happy that we got the shutout," coach Mark Francis said. "Defensively, we're not giving up soft goals."
Freshman defender Stacey Leeper struck first in the 14th minute, sending a ball into the box from 30 yards out. The ball slipped by Baylor goalkeeper Stephanie Dempsey and trickled into the net,
giving the Jayhawks a 1-0 advantage. It was Leeper's first goal of the year.
Leeper's goal would be all they needed, but freshman forward Rachel Gilfillan provided the always welcome insurance goals. In the 33rd minute, Gilfillan picked up the ball at midfield and moved toward goal. After eluding two defenders, she shot one past Dempsey from close range, putting the Jayhawks up 2-0.
"I decided to go inside." Giffillan said. "I cut and she fell for the outside, and I had an open shot."
Gilfillan scored again at the 65 minute mark, taking an assist from freshman midfielder Amy Geha and propelling it into the net. Gilfillan has eight goals and two assists on the season, playing mostly off the bench.
Baylor (8-8, 4-6) had never lost to Kansas prior to yesterday. Francis said it was the strength of the Jayhawk

Final Four berth may be in store for Big 12

Kansan sportswriter
IRVING, Texas - This could finally be the year for the Big 12 Conference.
Teams such as Kansas in 1997 and Iowa State in 1999 have knocked on the Final Four door in years past, but no team in the Big 12 Conference's six-year history has qualified for a Final Four.
At last Thursday's Big 12 media day, coaches said that the possibilities of a Final Four team emerging from this year's Big 12 were as promising as they've ever been.
Kansas last reached the Final Four in 1993. Junior Drew Gooden said the Final Four would be the ultimate goal, but winning the Big 12 would be Kansas' first goal of the season.
absences. "It's only our sixth year, so we're still young. But to get a team or two to the Final Four this year, that would be the last step to becoming a great league."
"It's a little surprising," Kansas coach Roy Williams said of the Big 12's Final Four
Texas coach Rick Barnes, whose team is one of five Big 12 teams in ESPN.com's preseason Top 25 poll, said it would be tough to stop any of the top
"We want to win," Gooden said. "We want to win the Big 12. That's our goal."
conference teams once tournament time rolled around.
"I'm excited about our league having five teams in the Top 25 and two teams in the top 10," said Barnes, referring to No. 5 Kansas and No. 9 Missouri. "If some teams play deep into the tournament, the perception of this league will change."
this league Oklahoma State was rated third in the conference by the Big 12 coaches in their preseason poll. Coach Eddie Sutton's Cowboys return five players who averaged more than 29 minutes a game last season, including Big 12 Newcomer of the Year Maurice Baker. But Sutton
wouldn't put call his team a potential Final Four candidate yet. He saved that distinction for two other teams.
"I would think that Kansas and Missouri are the two teams right now that have a legitimate shot at it, depending on what happens," Sutton said.
First-year Texas Tech coach Bob Knight, who spent 26 years coaching in the Big 10 Conference at Indiana, said Final Four success doesn't exactly equate to national respect. He said the Big 12 Conference had already earned that.

Jayhawks get run over by Wildcats
Saturday, Kansas safety, senior Jamarei Bryant, couldn't help but glance up at the carnage reflected on that scoreboard.
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
"During the game I just kept looking up and seeing how many yards rushing they had," Bryant said. "They just kept running the ball over and over again and getting positive yards. There just wasn't anything we could do about it."
anything we could read In the end, the scoreboard read that Kansas State's offense had amassed 349 yards rushing. Kansas, however, had only 47 yards on the ground.
Not surprisingly, the Wildcats won also on the scoreboard that counts, ending their four-game skid with the 40-6 win.
The Kansas defense left the field frustrated and confused as to how the 'Cats were consistently able to create holes for its running backs.
MANHATTAN - A tiny scoreboard on the south end of Kansas State's Wagner Field keeps running totals of team statistics throughout games.
"I don't know what was going on, who missed their assignments or what," said Nate Dwyer, senior defensive lineman and the 'Hawks team captain. "Right now we're just kind of at a loss."
Bryant, who said his primary focus was to stop the K-State passing attack, was frustrated that he couldn't help teammates stop the 'Cats' running game.
"Their offense is designed that as soon as you cheat on the run, they'll beat you on the pass," he said.
Kansas State's offensive game plan was evident from the beginning. Kansas State senior running

Today's Birthday (Oct. 29).
Have you considered going into business for yourself, in a field with a lot of completion and new beginnings? Just as you get one project done, another comes along to take its place. If your goal is to make your family more secure, you will succeed. How
ever, don't quit your day job right away. Give it at least a couple of months in order to minimize the risk.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 7.
You're in control again, but are you happy? Or
are you out to make things happen, and once
they happen, then you'll be happy? Be a strateg-
ist as well as a dreamer, and you'll get results
sooner.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6.
Caution is advised. Let somebody else make all the noise and draw all the attention. Hire someone to voice your opinion. Just do the job you do well and ignore the controversy. You'll profit.
gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 9.
You're rarin't to go, and so are your friends. They need your advice, and you need their support.
Sometimes you feel like you can't do it all by yourself. Why try? It's more fun with a team.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is 7.
All of a sudden you aren't able to do as much as you want. Have you overstepped your boundaries, or just pushed past your old limits? The latter is probably the case. Take notes.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is an 8.
You've just been blessed with a booster shot of enthusiasm, and not a moment too soon. Overwhelmed by problems you're facing? Not any more. Friends want to help, and you're now willing to let them. Full speed ahead!
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 6.
There's work to be done and money to be made.
The more money you stash away now, the more you'll have later, when you really need it. It seems simple, but it takes discipline. This is a great day to practice.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 7.
You seem to be back to normal, but there are strange forces at work. Someone else's magnetic energy is pulling at you, tugging you out of your reverie. This individual is definitely worth further study, even if you've known each other for years.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7.
The work has stacked up, but you'll be through it in no time. Are you able to do it faster than before, or does it just seem that way? If you push hard, you could earn a bonus.

You may not be quite ready to go back to work.
You're well rested and have plenty of energy,

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6.
What you'r really like to do is stay in bed all day
and read. The next-best thing would be to read
something your boss or teacher has assigned.
Schedule accordingly.

you can. Ask for the money.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is an 8.

Rowing team struggles with season's first test
By Brent Wasko
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas rowing team faced its first true test of the fall season, and its lack of earlier competitive racing experience showed.
The Jayhawks raced two eight-boats yesterday at the Head of the Iowa Regatta in Iowa City, Iowa.
Coach Rob Catloth said the Kansas boat with more experienced rowers finished in 10th place out of 27 teams with a time of 14:53.59. The second boat, with more power, ended up finishing 12th with a time of 14:57.50.
"I think this race shows that we have a lot to work on," Catloth said. "We're still a very young team and have a long way to go."
Big 12 Conference rival Kansas State also raced at the regatta, crossing the finish line in third place with a time of 14:38.51. Wisconsin's top boat claimed the regatta title, finishing with a time of 14:12.06.

Catloth said Wisconsin's program focused on the fall portion of the season, which had no
effect on a team's national ranking.
"Wisconsin is always quite a bit faster than we are at this time of year," he said. "I would be highly disappointed if these were our results in the spring. Results are not that important right now, but we still want to race well."
Kansas battled winds of up to 20 mph, which Catloth said caused the race water to become choppy. He said the Jayhawks struggled to row in the harsh wind.
"I don't think they handled it
"The last half mile of the race hurt us. We have to learn to mentally ignore the conditions."

and Ashleigh Doman of Oklahoma State The other Kansas doubles teams were bounced from the tournament in the second round.
Senior Cheryl Mallaiah and freshman Paige Brown lost to New Mexico's Michelle Heidbrink and Sandy Lukowski, 5-8. Sophomores Kristen and Courtney Steinbock, who were the second-seeded doubles tandem, were dismissed by Colorado State's Sanja Hanssen and Catherine Sulivan, 8-9.
"We put pressure on ourselves to win the tournament, but not so much to cost us the match," Courtney said. "We didn't capitalize on key points. I thought we played pretty well."
Courtney said the pressure of being the No.2 seed did not directly trigger the loss.

"They now know what they have to do to build up for San Diego, spring season and conference play."
Fourteenth-seeded Mallaiah fell to Jana Sedivec of Tulsa, 3-6, 6-4, 1-6. Tulsa's Alicia Pillay defeated Brown, 2-6, 3-6. Haylock lost to St. Louis's Vickie Zeilinski, 3-6, 7-6, 3-6.
Louis Vickery Brigham Young's Lisa Khoudarorova beat Courtney Steinbock in the Jayhawks' only consolation singles match, 6-7, 1-6.
Amy Hall, assistant coach, said despite the team's struggles, Kansas players could take some positives away from the tournament.
"The competition got tough, having to play No.1 and No.2 players from each school," Hall said. "They now know what they have to do to build up for San Diego, spring season and conference play."
The Jayhawks conclude their fall season at the University of San Diego Invitational Nov. 9-11.
Note: The Steinbock twins will be guests today from 5:15 to 6 p.m. on the sports radio show "The Bench" on KJHK 90.7 FM with hosts Ryan Greene, Chris Wristen and Michael Rigg. They will talk about their recent performance and the fall season.

The Kansas volleyball team dropped a pair of matches on the road this weekend, extending a slump. Kansas has won only two of its last 11 matches.
only two Yesterday, for the second time this season, Kansas (13-11, 3-10 in the Big 12 Conference) took Baylor to five games and lost to the Bears. The Jayhawks won games two and four, 30-23 and 50-28, but lost games one, three and five, 30-27, 30-23 and 15-11.

The Jayhawks hit just 12.5 percent as a team, managed just 45 total kills, and had six blocks to Texas Tech's nine. Texas Tech improved to 13-8, 6-6 in the Big 12.

Men's team takes fifth at Stanford meet, moves up five places in final round
By John Domoney Kansan sportswriter
Sophomore Tyler Hall led the Kansas men's golf team to a fifth-place team finish this weekend as he tied for second place in a 15-team tournament at Stanford.
With one tournament left on their fall schedule, the Jayh a w k s turned in a combined team score of
KU
golf
855 in the Nelson-Stanford Invitational in Palo Alto, Calif. Kansas had been in 10th place with the completion of the tournament's second round on Saturday.
Kansas coach Ross Randall said the final round was an indication that his team was improving.
"We made a real good move and passed a lot of schools with the lowest round of the day," Randall said. "Tyler Hall along with the rest of the team made some real good improvements today to allow us to move as we did."
The Jayhawks' tournament finishes have suffered this season because the team had been shooting its highest scores in the final rounds.
This time, however, Kansas put together clutch performances to catapult the team up in the rankings. The team had finished fifth in its previous two tournaments.
The Jayhawks shot a combined score of 279, which was the tournament's lowest final
round score and Kansas' lowest single round total of the fall. The University of Washington won the tournament with a combined team score of 859.
Hall led the team with the best finish of his collegiate career. He finished the final round with a 4-under-par 67, finishing with a combined score of 208. Hall was two shots away from the winning individual score of the tournament, which was earned by North Carolina State's Justin Walters.
Junior Chris Marshall finished in a tie for 24th with a final score of 215. Seniors Travis Hurst and Casey Harbour tied for 31st as each turned in a total score of 216. Sophomore Andrew Price shot a 228 and tied for 67th.
"We are very pleased with the results from today's round." Randall said. "We are looking forward to continuing the same kind of performance next week when we come back to California."

Team splits first home games after two years
By Kevin Flaherty Kansan sportswriter
A Truman State women's lacrosse player sprinted down the field, ball in stick with goal in mind. When she tried cutting inside of her defender, a Kansas player's stick stripped her of the ball. After a quick pass downfield to a teammate, Kansas was breaking toward the Truman goal. The Kansas player sliced her way through the defenders to get an open shot. Winding up, she fired the ball past the Truman goalie for the goal — and the win.
This weekend, the KU Women's Lacrosse Club team played its first home games—a 10 a.m. game against Truman and a noon game against Washington University-St. Louis—since February two years ago.
It captivated an audience that seemed to grow in intensity throughout the match. The team showed a swarming defense that didn't allow an open shot on goal
The homecoming was not wasted. Squeaking by Truman in sudden death overtime by a score of 6-5, the team showed what it could do.
all game, often knocking the ball away when Truman had a golden opportunity.
The team's second game did not go as well. Tired from its emotionally draining last-second win against Truman, the team was a bit overmatched in its game against Washington University. Kansas dropped the second contest 8-2.
Club president Jessie Bird said she enjoyed coming home to play.
"It's just that much easier," Bird said. "The crowds are not yelling against you. Normally the crowds cheer when you fall down."
The fall season ended with the loss to Washington, leaving the team 1-5 on the season.
Bird said she felt the team did well preparing for the spring.
"I was pleased with our efforts," Bird said. "We learned a lot to take forward into next season. It gave us a chance for most of the new members to play and get better."
The next home game is in April.

'Hawk swimmers perform well, still fall to Tigers
By Jeremy Giles Kansan sportswriter
Friday night, the scene at the Robinson Center looked more like something from the pages of a comic book than an NCAA swimming meet.
Our heroes, the Kansas Jayhawks, entered Gotham City sporting American flag temporary tattoos.
The villainous Missouri Tigers swarmed the city clad in black, sporting claw marks on their shoulders.
The Jayhawks won three out of the first five races. Freshman Amy Gruber won the 200-yard freestyle with a season-best time of 1:51.74.
"The freshman class really stepped up for us tonight. Amy swam very well," coach Cathy Burgess said. "As a team we lost, but there were a lot of positives to come out of the meet. I think the team took a step forward tonight."
Senior Carrie Kirkham won the 50-yard freestyle with a season-best time of 23.91. And junior Gwen Haley won the 400-yard Individual Medley, finishing with a time of 4:29.40.
After the first set of races, it appeared the Jayhawks would foil the Tiger's plot to steal a win in Kansas' plot pool. At that point the Jayhawks held a 52 to 41 lead. Senior Rebecca McFall won the 1-meter-round with a score of
243. 30.
The second round of races produced three Missouri wins in four races. The lone Kansas win was another season-best time for Gruber. In the 100-yard freestyle, Gruber posted a time of 51.95.
"We got down a little at first, but we got really pumped up when we knew we were behind and had to come back," Gruber said. It was one of the most fun meets I had ever been to. We did well."
Another round of diving produced another victory for McFall, this time from the 3-meter board with a score of 282.75.
stroke, Missouri took the top three spots. Kansas emerged from the pool dejected with fourth, fifth and sixth place finishes.
But, in the final round of races, Missouri staved off the Kansas squad. In the 200-yard breast-
The Jayhawks fell 126 to 117.
"It was a very close meet," Burgess said. "I'm never happy with a loss, but we swam exceptionally well in some spots. But, we also swam poor in other areas. Missouri was just better than us tonight."
In this comic book tale, good did not triumph over evil.
But, as the team said to Missouri at the conclusion of the meet," we'll see you at conference."

Pop artists cancel overseas shows concert industry lackluster
The Associated Press
Jackson canceled her European tour two weeks after the
NEW YORK — First it was Janet Jackson. Then Destiny's Child. Now the Dave Matthews Band has joined the chorus of American pop acts who have canceled or postponed overseas tours since last month's terrorist attacks.
"I think that there is probably a sense from an American standpoint that they might be more of a target," said Gary Bongiovanni of Pollstar, which tracks the concert industry.
The cancellations will likely cause a 10 percent drop in overall concert grosses for the year, said Kelly Barbieri of Amusement Business, which also monitors the concert business.
attacks, citing concern for her fans.
This week, Dave Matthews Band canceled its tour of Mexico, Germany and the United Kingdom, citing the attacks and the need to stay close to family. Several other tours have been delayed or canceled as well.
'N Sync had no overseas concerts planned, but even member Lance Bass acknowledged he was reluctant to travel.
"Yeah, I'm a little hesitant going to other countries," Bass said. "Going to a whole different place, you don't know how it's run."
Barbieri said she couldn't recall a time when so many acts have canceled European dates, even during the Gulf War.
Another concern for tour pro-
motors is lackluster business in the United States. While no figures were available, Bongiovanni said the industry has suffered since Sept. 11.
"I really tend to think that it has a lot more to do with uncertainty over the economy rather than fear of going to a large gathering."
The only exception to the international and domestic downturn is U2. The group has sold out its fall tour dates, which went on sale shortly after the attacks.
At this point it's unclear when the concert industry will begin to rebound.
"It depends on what happens," Barbieri said. "If something else happens stateside ... then forget it. Nobody is going to want to go to a show."

Cross country championships leave room for progress
By Matt Norton Kansan sportswriter
Despite several strong individual performances, the Kansas cross country team fell short of its expectations Saturday at the Big 12 Conference cross country championships in Norman, Okla.
The men finished in seventh place with 147 points, as Colorado won the team title with 31. The women moved up three spots from last year to an eighth-place finish with 182 points. Colorado won the women's race as well, with 33 points.
"We're definitely excited on the
ladies' part — that's their best finish in Big 12 history," coach Stan Redwine said. "Our guys finished seventh, and it was a tough day for them. You look at the history of 147 points, and it would have always scored better than seventh."
As expected, the battle for position in the men's upper division was fierce. Only 22 points separated fourth place from seventh, and the Jayhawks couldn't get quite enough production behind their first two runners.
Seniors Brent Behrens and Pete Prince both ran personal bests for eight kilometers.
21. a place.
Behrens said the team executed their pre-race strategy of packing together early in the race but it didn't work out as expected.
Behrens ran 24:39.3 for 13th place while Prince ran 25:10.2 for 27th place.
"We got out the first mile-and-a half or so maybe a little bit quicker than we wanted to." Behrens said. "Then our pack kind of fell apart a little bit and that's probably where it hurt us in the end."
"I kind of felt like I was holding on to people in the middle of the race." Prince said. "But then the last 2K I was going by people, so I felt good about that."
Prince, who had never finished higher than 49th at the conference meet, said the fast early pace might have been a negative for the

Loss: Left to play for pride
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
that's how it was all day."
The K-State defense, ranked No.10 in the country, tempted Kinsey to pass.Eight or nine Wildcats often stacked up at the line of scrimmage, leaving K-State defensive backs to cover receivers one-on-one. This created narrow running lanes for sophomore running back Reggie Duncan, who ran on a tender left ankle.
The running back started the game with a respectable 413 yards in five games. He ended Saturday with 441.
"I don't know what was going on," Duncan said. "If we want to win, if we want to play with these guys, then we are going to have to establish some type of balanced attack. We need to do something."
But the fifth-year coach, whose five-year contract is up at the end of the season, made a promise on what his
team would play for next month.
"People say that we don't have much to play for, that you are out of this and out of that," Allen said. "Well, you have the most important thing to play for, and that's your own personal pride and pride in your teammates.

Rush: Asking what's wrong

back Josh Scobey bounced the first play of the game to the outside and was untouched before Kansas strong safety, junior Jake Letourneau, tackled him 45 yards downfield. Seven plays later, Scobey scored from one yard out, completing a 77-yard drive that featured nothing but running plays.
"The more carries I get, the stronger I get," said Scobey, who finished the afternoon with a career-high 204 yards on 28 carries. "After 16 carries my legs kick in, they kind of turn on and feel good. I guess I'm just warming them up."
The plan didn't change
throughout the game, as K-State completed only five passes, and threw just four times in the second half.
The Kansas defense, which entered last week ranked 100 out of 117 Division I-A teams against the run, has surrendered a Big 12 Conference-worst of 229 yards-per-game on the ground.
And next weekend, the Nebraska Cornhuskers will bring the nation's top-ranked rushing attack to Lawrence.
With this on his mind, Bryant looked up one last time before he entered the locker room on Saturday. Only this time, instead of looking at the scoreboard, he looked at the
K-State faithful who were cheering the Wildcat win.

"It's not a feeling that you feel sorry for yourself, you just wish you knew what you could have done to make a difference in the game. Right now we just don't know what's wrong."

hawk freshmen that did the Bears in.
"Our young guys have really come in and stepped up," Francis said. "They adjusted very quickly and made a big contribution a lot earlier than we anticipated. Today, all of our goals came from freshmen. We're continuing to get better."
Gilfillsn said that, despite scoring two of its three goals in the first half. the team played better later in the game.
"We did pretty well," she said. "We picked it up as the game went on. At halftime, coach gave us a good talk, and we came out and did a better job of controlling."
With the victory, the Jayhawks secured their spot in the Big 12 tournament as either a fourth or fifth seed. It will be just the second time they have qualified for the tournament, which invites only the top eight teams in the Big 12.

A campus-wide dialogue is being encouraged by the Board of Regents that may result in a tuition increase for the next academic year, though University of Kansas administrators offer mixed predictions.
again.
"Over the last 10 years, there have been tuition increases every year, and I presume that will continue" Reins said.
Marlin Rein, director of budget and government relations for the University, said that he expected tuition to increase again.
Provost David Shulenburger said that there was no specific proposal regarding a tuition increase.
Rein said that the new tuition ownership policy instituted by the Legislature during its last session changed the previous procedure. While tuition rates were previously calculated one year ahead of time, Rein said that the Regents and individual universities would now wait to see how much the Legislature allocated this spring before they calculated tuition for the fall.

more fatalistic regarding a possible tuition increase.
He will meet with Shulenburger to discuss tuition on Thursday. Mills said that no plans were set in stone.
"It's inevitable," Mills said.
Dick Carter, director of external relations for the Regents, said that the Regents, who oversee state universities, asked each university chancellor to engage students, alumni and other constituents in a discussion about tuition, student aid, library enhancements and technology. Carter said that the talks would result in a five-year plan this spring.
Jim Carothers, associate provost, said that a discussion of tuition would not ensure an increase. However, Carothers said that the University needed to stay competitive with peer institutions.
"The University's goal of improving itself can't be achieved at the current rate of support from the state and tuition." Carothers said.
Carothers said. Carothers point to rankings compiled by the University's Office of Institutional Research and Planning, which show that KU tuition rates are among the lowest of the 34 public university members of the American Association of Universities.
The report showed that in a comparison of the the seven Big 12 Conference schools in the association, KU charges the least in resident tuition and fees and is next to last in nonresident tuition and fees.
In nonexistent Mermis, Dallas senior, said he wanted an explanation for any tuition increase.
"If they did raise tuition, they would have to state really good reasons, and I don't really see any." Mermis said.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway was out of town and could not be reached for comment yesterday.

'FREAKIEST TV EVER'

Some employees say the Eldridge Hotel, 701 Massachusetts St., is host to a melange of "supernatural" phenomena.

Staying the night at a hotel can sometimes be a frightening experience.
Guests of the Eldridge Hotel, 701 Massachusetts St., however, don't have to worry about the usual hotel woes — insects, unclean sheets or out-of-service ice machines.
Instead, they have their own nuisance: a ghost.

Senate seeks better seats for students
By Luke Daley
Kansan staff writer
Student senators are working with the Athletics Department in hopes of getting better seats for students attending Jayhawk basketball games, but that probably will not happen this season.
Matt Dwyer, off-campus senator, said most students wanted a better location within Allen Fieldhouse to watch the games. He said big-time basketball arenas, such as Cameron Indoor Stadium at Duke University, showcased the team's student fans better on television than the fieldhouse does.
"It's pretty sad when you are watching a KU basketball game on ESPN, and you can't even see the students," Dwyer said. "It is good to have students sitting at least on one side of the stadium."
Dwyer ran for office with the Delta Force coalition last spring. Better student seating in the fieldhouse was one of the issues the coalition talked about during the campaign.
campaign.
Traditionally, student seating is behind both of the basketball goals, where students are free to stand during the entire game without obstructing the view of season ticket holders. Seats that are on the sidelines are commonly reserved for money-contributing alumni and other season ticket holders.
Diana Grover, director of ticket sales and operations, said any change to the seating arrangement would have to pass through the athletics board. She said that students standing during the entire game would cause problems.
"Where would you put all of the season ticket holders?" Grover said.
Rob Headley, Overland Park senior, said he didn't think the student seating was fair.
"I understand that some of the seats are reserved for alumni and people who pay good money for those tickets." Headley said. "At least open up some of that to us."
Headley said he went to three KU basketball games last year and usually had trouble seeing the action on the court.
"Give students higher-up seats, four or five rows at the top, where we can yell and go crazy." Headley said. "If you're not there to yell, go watch it on TV."
to yell at Bohl, athletics director, said he didn't think that any kind of test seating program could be implemented this season because there would be trouble moving the season ticket holders and alumni.
Bohl said it would be important to have the athletics board, Student Senate and ticket office officials meet and discuss the issue. Then a possible plan could be established.
"I'm not sure exactly what the things are to do, but I'm willing to do what I can to help." said Bohl, who was hired last summer. "I do know that we have 7,000 student tickets for the games, and I still am looking forward to taking those games in."

DJs face off,keep the beat at annual KJHK battle
By Eve Lamborn Kansan staff writer
Shoulders tense, head down in concentration, DJ Proof, who real name is Ian Sotomayor, bounced with his music. His hands fluttered across the turntables while he spun records and twisted dials with precision.
Beneath the shine of red stage lights, DJs at last night's KJHK DJ Battle spun pounding beats into the crowd at Abe & Jake's Landing, 8 E. Sixth St.
He let the beat of the music

At least 100 people were at the third annual event. In between rounds of the competition, local bands Ultimate Fakebook, mi6 and Ghosty performed.
Proof started spinning records at high school parties.

Israeli army could leave more Palestinian areas

JERUSALEM — After pulling troops and tanks out of Bethlehem, Israeli officials said yesterday the army would leave the other Palestinian areas occupied almost two weeks ago if a cease-fire was maintained — scaling back earlier demands.

Smokers sue tobacco companies to get medical testing program
WHEELING, W.Va. — There is no scientific foundation for a medical screening program that healthy West Virginia smokers want the tobacco industry to create, a medical expert testified yesterday.

Spagnolo has never testified for tobacco companies before but said he had agreed to take part in this class-action case to express his opinion about the merit of the idea for a screening program.

The night began with about 10 DJs each spending two minutes playing music during the first round. Over the course of the evening, between acts by local bands, the judges whittled the number of DJs down to two finalists, The Guy Downstairs and DJ Sku. The finalists battled back and forth during the final round.
Phil Cauthon, JIKH teaching assistant, said the presence of That Guy Downstairs, the two-time defending champion, made the competition better.
"It presents a real tangible challenge," he said. "The other DJs have got something to prove."
But DJ SKU upset the defending champion to take the battle.
Andrew Giesel, Larned junior, said he went to the battle because he liked a variety of music, including hip hop, rock and electronic. He mentioned That Guy Downstairs as one of the better DJs but said the defending champion had some competition this year.

EDITORIAL
PERSPECTIVE
Now,if only we could get rid of credit card bills
University should ban credit card solicitors and newspaper tables on KU sidewalks
Student Senate is in the process of considering a bill that would recommend the University cut down on the harassment, and temptation, students face on their way to class from solicitors. Senate wants to ban credit card companies from soliciting business from students on campus. If Senate recomends removing the threat of debt, it should encourage the University to ban all solicitation on campus.
When walking to class on Jayhawk Boulevard, many students are harassed by groups and organizations, especially out front of Wescoe Hall. Solicitors often stop students to try to sell them a product or service or sign students up for an activity or organization.
This can be annoying to students who are scurrying to class or don't want to spend their time on camus dodging salespeople — but nothing has previously been done about it. Credit card companies and newspapers are two of the most visible businesses that solicit on campus. Newspaper representatives may make fewer appearances as the new newspaper readership program provides newspapers for students without a subscription. But credit card companies still have a captive audience of students.
Some senators are trying to pass a bill to recomend a ban on credit card companies soliciting on campus, partly because some senators feel the credit card companies are exploiting the financial naivite of students. If Senate decides to ban credit card solicitation on campus, it should also ban all types other types of solicitation on campus.
Brett Norman for the editorial board
Part of the richness of the university experience is that groups and individuals have the opportunity to speak on campus, share ideas and promote their own causes and viewpoints. Senate should always speak up for free speech. There are certain activities that should be protected on at a public university. Student groups should be allowed to set up tables and recruit and inform students. However, credit card solicitation isn't beneficial to students.
Peddling products does not better the University or the student's education, and therefore are not appropriate for as part of the university experience. While Senate doesn't have a responsibility to save students from self-imposed financial catastrophe, it does have a responsibility to be fair in applying the same rules to all groups.
Senate is still in preliminary stages of discussing the proposed bill to ban credit card solicitation. The passing of this bill would be a great help in keeping the University a better place for students. The University should ban of solicitation from all non-student groups if it bans credit card companies.
Safe gay sex vs. unsafe straight sex: blood screening misses the real risk
The FDA and Red Cross refuse blood donation from men who have had sex even once with another man since 1977. In Friday's Kansan ("Safety outweighs FDA's 'discrimination'", Oct. 26), John Audelhelm wrote that this ban was justified. He argued that when a man chooses to have sex with another man, he participates in a high-risk behavior analogous to using intravenous drugs or traveling to parts of Europe and Africa. The trade-off for engaging in high-risk behavior is losing the privilege to give blood.
Audlehelm's side of the story couldn't be farther from reality. Unfortunately, the FDA makes the same mistake he does.
While gay men are a de facto high-risk group, gay sex is not a high-risk behavior. Unprotected gay sex is a high-risk behavior, just as unprotected heterosexual sex is a high-risk behavior. Safe sex, be it between two men or not, is a low-risk behavior.
Consider two hypothetical cases
Donor one is a gay male. He has safe sex in a long-term monogamous relationship. The man gets tested regularly for HIV, and his partner tests regularly for HIV as well. When donor one
Joe Jarvis
Guest Columnist
opinionansan.com
Commentary
decides to give blood, he's turned away for being a "high risk" donor. Donor one can't even give blood autologously (reserved for self-use only in case of future emergency).
PETER KAYE
Donor two is a heterosexual and participates in unsafe sex. He does it with multiple partners. He doesn't get tested for HIV.And, he doesn't know his partners well, so he has no idea what the partners' HIV status is. When donor two gives blood, the FDA and Red Cross accept it because he is a "low risk" donor.
The FDA mistakenly confuses high-risk groups with high-risk behavior. Laying risk on a group perpetuates stereotypes that heterosexuals are inherently safe blood donors, while gay men are tainted goods with the "gay disease."
Audlehelm's criticism of Queers & Allies couldn't be more misplaced. Queers & Allies' fight to change the FDA's donor screening is a fight to make the blood supply safer for everyone. That we feel comfortable accepting blood from heterosexual donors when we don't know their sexual practices is appalling.
Fortunately, the FDA screens all blood for HIV with three very reliable tests. These same tests — which are good enough for the FDA to filter blood from unsafe heterosexuals—could just as effectively filter blood from safe homosexuals.
This double standard is the irony of the situation. People accept the FDA's discrimination against gay men because it fits our stereotypes. If the FDA bans gay men, then the blood supply has to be safe because AIDS is a gay disease, right? In reality, we would all be safer with a fairer blood screening process. Change won't happen until the public changes, though, and that's why we should applaud the efforts of Queers & Allies.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
LIBRARY PERVERTS
Dear editor,
Dean editor, The library on a university campus should be a safe haven, but Watson library is not.
Just a few hours ago, I was sitting in a chair by the window on the fourth floor, enjoying procrastinating on my research paper while reading the third Harry Potter book. After about an hour, a man came and sat cattycorner from me. I didn't even look up. After another hour, I happened to glance over, and noticed that he was exposing his penis and testicles to me. I froze in shock and then quickly put my book in my bag and walked to the counter in the next room.
I decided that it wasn't. I went downstairs to the main circulation desk and told them what happened. They called the police and I waited, keeping a sharp eye out for the man. The police arrived and questioned me, but my description was less than satisfactory. Truth be told, I was not looking at the man's face.
I told the staff what happened, and one of them left to go see if the man was still there. He wasn't. That was to be the end of the matter.
at the man's face.
The police searched the building, and eventually brought a man down and placed him about twenty feet from me on a bench, and asked if he was the man I had seen. I didn't think it was, but the officer informed me that the man had a criminal record of exposing himself. I was horrified at being face to face with someone who I was supposed to identify as a flasher. That man now knows my face. But he wasn't the one who had exposed himself to me, so they rightfully let him go.
Does anyone have a problem with there having been at least two sex criminals running loose in Watson library at 6:45 on a Sunday evening? Since my freshman year I have heard all kinds of creepy stories about what happens in the Watson stacks. Well this wasn't even in the stacks. It was right out in the open. I am scared to go back there.
then they see the rest. Perhaps we should restrict access to Watson only to students and faculty. I am aware that these things do happen, that I could have just as easily been flashed on Massachusetts Street and that there are sickos out there in the world. I just think perhaps we shouldn't let them roam our library. I am not a weak person, but I am scared to return to Watson. There is something fundamentally wrong in that, so I believe a change is in order.
I should feel safer in that library than anywhere in the world, and it hurts me to feel otherwise. I do not criticize the way the library staff or the police handled the situation. I am upset that anyone can just wander around our library when they like it.
As a political science major, John Audlehelm should know the job of a State Senator is to represent his or her constituents. In his article appearing last Tuesday ("Senator's stance on female suffrage reflects still prevalent gender roles," Oct. 23), he argues that it would not be "morally" correct to recall Kay O'Connor from her present seat as Kansas State Senator because she merely "spoke her mind."

SENATOR RECALL
However, in comments made to Finn Bullers and printed in The Kansas City Star, she not only said
Kelli Wilhite
Olathe freshman
that she would not vote for the 19th amendment if it came up today, which is ironic in itself, but she also stated that "it was more important to stay true to her convictions than simply mirror the views of her constituents." O'Connor also related her opinion that men, in essence, should be making the decisions for women, and if they were "women wouldn't have to vote." With this statement she is justifying the recall effort since she is arguing her own incompetence not to mention the incompetence of every other woman.

New York-based talk shows struggle to find guests after terrorist attacks
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Since Sept. 11, television talk shows based in New York are having a tough time filling their couches.
The star-making machinery has been slowed by many celebrities' reluctance to travel, forcing many talk shows to cope with last-minute cancellations and invite guests who normally wouldn't get a second look.
Not that it's hurting too much: David Letterman's ratings are surging, and he's drawn some of the best reviews of his career for gently guiding the nation back to comedy in a tragic and anxious time.
Two California-based TV entertainment chiefs said they were having trouble persuading stars to trek east for promotion, something the shows have noticed.
"I've certainly heard of a lot of cancellations," said Hillary Kun, chief booker on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show." "I know the other talk shows that are New York-based are having trouble. There's not as much selection as there normally would be."
Drew Barrymore and Heather Graham both backed out of scheduled appearances on Letterman's Late Show.
Barrymore was pressed into service as host of Saturday Night Live a week ahead of schedule when Ben Stiller canceled, putting her a few floors away from the NBC News headquarters in Rockefeller Center the week an anthrax exposure was reported. She fled the building, but was coaxed back to appear on the show.
Both Emeril Lagasse and Steve
Harvey backed out of Conan O'Brien's "Late Night" the day anthrax was reported, leaving only musical guest Tenacious D. O'Brien hurriedly booked NBC's Dr. Bob Arnott.
"The Rosie O'Donnell Show," which, like Late Night, is taped in NBC's building, canceled a full week of shows because of the anthrax scare. That prompted radio host Howard Stern to taunt O'Donnell for timidity when he appeared at the Madison Square Garden benefit concert.
Gradually, Kun said, the phones are ringing more.
"A lot of people are overcoming their fear," she said. "There are definitely more celebrities coming in. Not as many as normal, but a lot more than there were two weeks ago."

Soccer team eyes revenge against St. Louis
By Ryan Wood
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas soccer team battles St. Louis University at 3 p.m. today at SuperTarget Field, and although the game is a nonconference makeup game, the Jayhawks have plenty of incentives to win.
With the NCAA tournament less than a month away, Kansas is in serious contention for an at large berth in the newly expanded 64-team field.
"We're trying to make the
NCAA tournament, and a loss could really hurt us," said coach Mark Francis.
Kansas comes into today's game with an 11-5 record, all five losses coming at the hands of Top 25 teams. St. Louis has an 8-7-1 record, but Francis said he didn't think his team would look past today's contest.
"I think the biggest mistake we could make is to take the game lightly." Francis said, noting that St. Louis had beaten
"We're trying to make the NCAA tournament, and
a loss could really hurt us."
Mark Francis Kansas soccer coach
No. 20 Marquette last weekend.
Kansas also has revenge on
its mind. The Jayhawks played against the Billikens last season in St. Louis, with the Billikens rallying from a 2-0 deficit and scoring three goals in the final 25 minutes of play. Francis said the returning players had not forgotten.
forgotten.
"That was a tough loss because I thought we outplayed them for 75 minutes," he said. "They came back and beat us in the last 15. We just didn't finish the game, and I think that's something they're thinking about."
St. Louis is led by freshman forward Jamie Perry, who has racked up 10 goals and three assists in her debut season. The Billikens last played on Sunday, crushing DePaul, 6-0. Today's game will be the first against a Big 12 team this season for St. Louis.
Notes:
Freshman forward Monica Brothers hurt her knee in practice yesterday and likely will not play today. Francis said she would be ready to play in the
Jayhawks' regular-season finale against Missouri on Friday.
Kansas remained sixth in the central region of the National Soccer Coaches' Association of America poll, which was released yesterday.

Jordan to return to Garden
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Michael Jordan returns to the NBA tonight at the arena where he's had some of his greatest moments.
When he came back to Madison Square Garden in 1955 after his first retirement, he scored 55 points against the New York Knicks.
"It enthused me to play there every chance I got," said Jordan, who makes his regular-season debut tonight with the Washington Wizards. "There's a lot of memories of playing on that floor, and I'm not going to forget them."
After eight preseason games, it
all begins to count now for the 38-year-old Jordan, whose second retirement lasted nearly 3 1/2 years. He will start at small forward, wearing a uniform other than Chicago's for the first time in his NBA career.
He returns with six championship rings and with the fourth-highest scoring total in league history. But he is coming back with a team that won only 19 games last season when he was the team president.
Jordan said he planned on playing hard, and whatever happened would happen.
in and get off to a good start of the regular season, and hopefully the team feels the same way."
The job of defending Jordan will fall to Latrell Sprewell, who is eager to end all the speculation about Jordan.
"It's going to be fun. It's what everybody has wanted to see for sometime now," Sprewell said. "I guess people are anxious to see how good he is. I expect him to play hard and to get a lot of shots off."
"I'm in better shape than I thought I would be. I feel really good right now — just want to go

Yankees to rely on veteran pitcher
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Squirming in a World Series corner after two losses in Arizona, the New York Yankees turn to a 39-year-old pitcher with a cranky hamstring who hasn't won in 41 days.
This, though, isn't tany old pitcher. This is Roger Clemens, equipped with a 20-3 regular-season record that almost certainly will translate into a sixth Cyr Young Award.
The problem is Clemens enters tonight's game winless in six starts since Sept. 19 with three losses and three no-decisions during the last six weeks.
Clemens had two losses and a no-decision in the final weeks of the season, then lost Game 1 of the American League division series against Oakland, coming out in the fifth inning when his right hamstring began hurting. He worked into the fifth of the decisive Game 5 of that series and got no decision.
Against Seattle in the American League championship series, he came out after five innings of Game 4, again with no decision. That extended his career postseason record to 5-6 with a 3.57 earned run average in 19 starts, rather ordinary for a pitcher whose dossier includes 280 victories.
Still, manager Joe Torre is entirely comfortable handing the ball to Clemens for Game 3.
"As far as the physical stuff,
you never are really going to know until he goes out there." Torre said. "However, we feel good enough about him to have pitched him in Game 3, because if we felt that he was not able to pitch a Game 7, we would have pitched him in Game 4."
The road to a Game 7 has to start in Game 3 for a Yankees team caught in an 0-2 hole and knowing that no team has ever come back from 0-3 to win a World Series.
Clemens relishes the assignment.
"Physically, I feel great," he said. "I'll know how it goes each inning I pitch. I plan on going as hard and as long as I can and hopefully longer. The stamina and my strength have felt great."
Overwhelmed in the first two games by Curt Schilling and Randy Johnson, the Yankees must find some offense against left-hander Brian Anderson, who will be making his first World Series start. Anderson was 4-9 in the regular season and his record pales alongside Clemens accomplishments.
Clemens sees the Yankees situation as a challenge, to him as well as the team.

Clemens' postseason career has been a series of up and downs. He pitched the Yankees' clincher in the 1999 sweep against Atlanta and had a one-hitter in the American League championship series against Seattle last year, his only complete game in 19 postseason starts.
Then there was Game 2 of the World Series against the New York Mets lastyearwhen he threw a splintered bat at Mike Piazza, an episode that resulted in a $50,000 line.
Still, the Yankees expressed a sense of confidence about having him on the mound.
"He's been our horse," said catcher Jorge Posada. "To have Rocket going is a good feeling. The days off have helped him. I know he's looking forward to getting on the mound."
And Clemens liked the idea of being the main man in this crisis.
"I enjoy the opportunity just to pitch," he said. "I mean whether I am ailing or not feeling great, I still enjoy the challenges. I enjoy the opportunity every time to go out there because I know guys are counting on me." pitch." he said. "I mean whether I am ailing or not feeling great, I still enjoy the challenges.

Pricey chairs, tables missing from campus buildings
By Eve Lamborn Kansan staff writer
Vintage furniture was stolen from two different buildings on or near campus this month.
Two end tables and sixteen chairs with an estimated value of at least $8,000 were stolen from Nunemaker Hall between Oct. 6 and Oct. 14, and seven chairs and three tables, valued atatleast $1,850, were stolen from the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave. the night of Oct. 21.
Sgt. Mike Pattrick of the Lawrence Police said he could not confirm whether the two thefts were connected.
"There's simply not enough information to determine that yet," he said.
Both sets of furniture had been in the buildings since they were built, and both sets could be considered collectors' items, said Rev. Thad Holcombe, ECM pastor.
Barbara Schowen, director of the University Honors Program, said she did not know exactly when the furniture had been stolen from Nunemaker, but said the furniture was definitely present during the University of Kansas's Open House on Oct. 6.
"One of our secretaries was just looking downstairs and she noticed that the little tables were gone and then looked in another room and noticed that the chairs were gone," she said.
She said the theft was particularly hurtful because the furniture had been an original part of the building. Schowen said the chairs had been personally selected for the building by Irene Nunemaker, who designed Nunemaker Hall. Nunemaker donated the building to the University in 1970.
The chairs were copies of chairs made by Danish designer and architect Arne Jacobsen, who became internationally known in the 1950s for his furniture designs.
Schowen said each chair cost about $500, making the total value of the stolen furniture at least $8,000. She did know how much the two tables were worth.
"I think everyone felt ripped off and violated." she said.
and violated, the combe said the seven chairs and three tables had been stolen from the ECM building commons area. The value of the stolen furniture was reported to be $1,850, but Holcombe said the actual value was still being determined and could be between $2,500 and $3,000.
$3,000. The furniture stolen from the ECM was by designer Herman Miller and had been put in the building when it was built in 1960.
Holcombe said the theft of the ECM furniture was painful because the furniture had been with the building for so long.
The ECM building is not a part of the KU campus, so the theft was reported to the Lawrence Police Department. The theft from Nunemaker was reported to the University of Kansas Police Department.

Discount cards discussed
Student Senate balks at organization's request for mailing information

Justin Mills is worried that students could receive more junk mail if Student Senate allows Student Advantage to distribute discount cards to all KU students.

Fate of scholarship hall continues to be disputed
By Courtney Craigmile Kansan staff writer
The Campus Historic Preservation Board and the Lawrence Historic Resources Commission agreed last night to disagree on what to do with three KU-owned houses in the 1300 block of Ohio Street.
The University board, CHPB, and the city board, LHRC, were meeting jointly to come to a consensus on whether to demolish the three properties to build a scholarship hall.
The CHPB met in August and approved the demolition. The LHRC met in September and voted against the demolition.

The properties are under scrutiny because of their proximity to two properties on the National Register of Historic Places, the Usher House, 1425 Tennessee St., and Spooner Hall, 1340 Jayhawk Blvd.

U.S. Supreme Court hears Kansas sex offender case
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Kansas' attorney general told the U.S. Supreme Court yesterday that states should not have to prove violent sexual offenders cannot control their behavior in order for the state to keep them locked up after they complete their sentences.
after they complete their sentence.
Nineteen states, including Missouri, have laws allowing authorities to confine people indefinitely as sexual predators. The attorney for a Kansas man in the current case appealed to the justices to set a precedent for future cases.
The court heard the case of Michael Crane, who went to prison in 1994 for sexually assaulting a video store clerk and exposing himself to a tanning salon attendant in a suburb of Kansas City. Kan. When Crane was about to be paroled in 1998, prosecutors went to court to have him committed to a state hospital.
A jury found Crane suffered from a personality disorder and ordered him hospitalized. Crane won an appeal before the Kansas Supreme Court, which ruled the jury needed to find not only that Crane was likely to re-offend
but that he could not continue. At Crane's trial to determine whether he should be hospitalized, the judge denied his request to require the jury to decide whether Crane was unable to control his behavior. Instead, jurors were told only to decide whether Crane suffered from a personality disorder that made him likely to reoffend.
but that he could not control his behavior.
The Kansas Supreme Court ordered a new trial, saying the judge should have granted Crane's request for the additional jury instruction.
Supreme Court justices pressed both attorneys to say specifically how far the court should go in setting a standard for what proof states must offer.
"Is there some extra element beyond the mere probability of doing an act which society has called dangerous?" Justice David Souter asked.
asked. Kansas Attorney General Carla Stovall argued yesterday that such a requirement is too broad, because almost all sexual offenders have at least some control over their actions. The "cannot control" requirement could spare even mass murderers from civil confinement, she said.
Life after politics excites Graves
TOPEKA — Gov. Bill Graves plans to become the leader of a national trucking industry group after leaving office and says his new job security has energized him for next year's legislative session.

Graves announced yesterday that he will become the chief executive officer of the American Trucking Associations when his current term ends in January 2003. The group made its own announcement during its national convention in Nashville.
He said he didn't plan to start briefings for the industry job for another year and won't sign a contract with the ATA until after he leaves office, so that he won't be distracted from his duties as governor.

Theme park developers miss deadline to repay $400,000
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Developers of a proposed Wizard of Oz theme park missed a state-imposed deadline Monday to repay $400,000 to the Board of Public Utilities in Wyandotte County.

In granting Oz access to millions of dollars in state-issued bonds, the Kansas Legislature said Oz had to repay the BPU the money it received for feasibility studies in the early 1990s when the company planned to build its project in Wyandotte County.
Oz proposed to acquire the now-defunct Sunflower Army Ammunition Plant near De Soto and use the 9,065-acre site for its resort and a mix of commercial and residential developments, including a theme park based on The Wizard of Oz movie.
Oz officials did not return several telephone messages seeking comment Monday.

Senate considers student fee hike
By Luke Daley Kansan staff writer
In an effort to create more revenues for student organizations, Student Senate members are discussing a student activity fee increase for next year.
If Senate approves the fee increase of $3 per semester for the student activity fee beginning in the Fall of 2002, the Board of Regents would still have to approve the fee, said Adam Obley, Finance Committee chairman.
Students now pay $17 per semester for the fee with their tuition. Student Senate allocates money from the fee to student organizations on campus.
Because some senators are concerned Senate might not have enough money for all of the groups asking for money they proposed raising the activity fee.
Student Fees
Members of the campus fee review subcommittee met on Monday to discuss how much to increase the fee, and decided the increase should be $3 per semester.
Senate says raising one student activity fee will give more money to student organizations.
STUDENT CAMPUS FEE STUDENT FEES FOR 2001 PROJECTIONS FOR 2002
Student Senate Activity Fee $17 $20

Justin Mills, student body president said a $3 increase might be too high. Yet he said it was important to have enough money available to student groups.
The increase would give Senate an estimated additional $150,000 a year to allocate to student groups.
"I think every group deserves Senate money," Mills said. "It just depends on how much they get."
Matt Steppe, Student Legislative Awareness Board director, said he didn't want to see a large increase in the activity fee but would be more open to

He said Senate should take a more conservative spending approach if going over budget was a concern.

from the student activity fee went back to the students.

Alternative breaks give students chance to travel, help others
By Paul Smith Kansan staff writer
During spring break, Jessi Mester chose caring for AIDS patients over a ski trip, and that decision two years ago changed her life and broadened her world view.
While in New Orleans volunteering on an Alternative Break, Mester spet Spencer, a man with
AIDS who walked on his own one day, but was bedridden the next.
"Spencer died the week after we left," said the Topeka senior. "Alternative Breaks make you realize there's more to the world than your safe little bubble."
Alternative Break programs at universities nationwide offer student volunteers service-learning
opportunities in numerous locations.
The student-run program at the University of Kansas has expanded its trip offerings for spring break in March, and applications to serve will only be accepted for another two weeks.
Kendra Seaman, Wichita senior and co-director of the Alternative Break program, said four
more trip options were available for this spring than last year, bringing the total number to 18.
bringing the total workforce Trips range from working with the homeless in Maine or Washington, D.C. volunteering at a migrant community outreach center in Texas, to environmental restoration in Oregon.
"We're trying to open it up to as many people as possible. to let
everyone who wants to go. go," Seaman said, adding that the number of students on each team
—typically seven—and the number of trips is flexible.
The application process involves a written application, a $50 deposit and an interview with other students. If selected, $130 covers food, lodging and transportation fees and prospective
volunteers must enroll in a weekly course that can be taken for no credit, or either one or two credits hours.
"There's no other program at the University where you learn so much about the world around you in such a short amount of time," Mester said.

Ping pong should be intramural sport by spring
For too long, the University of Kansas has gone without intramural ping pong. With minimal cost and wide-ranging participation, there is no excuse for failing to add a ping pong tournament by next semester.
There are simply too many outstanding players just itching for a chance to prove themselves and finally see who the best really is here at KU. Take sophomore Tom Wait for instance. Nationally ranked in one ping pong magazine, USA Table Tennis, Wait is just waiting for the University to recognize his chosen sport as an official intramural sport.
"Frankly I think it's ridiculous that it hasn't already happened," Wait said. "I mean, what kind of school doesn't offer intramural ping pong?"
His question is a valid one. A quick look at the Web sites of other Big 12 schools reveals that KU is certainly in the minority. In fact, the athletic juggernaut that is Baylor is the only other Big 12 school that does not offer ping pong.
True, athletic facilities here at the University don't match up to many of those of the aforementioned schools. And who knows when the long-awaited new recreation center will actually break ground? But in the mean time, the ping pong tables that the University already owns could be set up on one of the courts at Robinson Gym.
While these would take up space in an already crowded gym, they would not need to be up for long. At most schools, intramural ping pong consists of single-elimination tournaments that could be over in the span of a few evenings.
Cost would be minimal, as ping pong does not require referees, only a tournament coordinator and a couple of supervisors. Ping pong equipment is extremely cheap; players bring their own paddles so the only expense would be the balls.

Implementation would be simple. Just post the sign-ups like any other sports, reserve a court at Robinson for a weekend, or for a few nights, and hold the tournament.
There is absolutely no reason to wait on instituting intramural pong here at KU. The first annual tournament should be held this spring.

Halloween brings needed rest from political correctness
In the frighteningly politically correct era that we are living in, I find myself thanking the Lord up on high that this country is still able to celebrate the magical holiday of Halloween.
At a time when people can't seem to agree on how to spell the word "women," it is nothing short of miraculous that we can all agree that Oct. 31 should be the day that everyone puts on funny masks and walks around the neighborhood collecting candy.
neighborhood. Everyone should count their lucky chickens that Halloween already exists, because there is no way in Hades that the idea would get anywhere if it was brought up today.
Imagine trying to explain the concept of Halloween to someone who's never heard of it before. We are living in a world where you can get cued for talking about Seinfeld at the water cooler.
Knowing that, it warms my little heart to know that I can appear at any random person's front door dressed as a giant pumpkin and demand candy, and not only would I get it, the person giving the candy would think nothing of it.
In a Halloween-less world I would probably get two to three years probation for doing something like that.

It's nice that Halloween exists, but the truly great part of it is that it's observed by the overwhelmingly majority of the population. Columbus Day has long been a part of our country's tradition, but it's not exactly celebrated by a large amount of people.
Any guy seen sitting in a wooden boat marked Santa Maria with a sailor's hat on yelling "Ahoy!" would find himself with a lot less friends than he had when the day began.
Almost everyone, no matter what religion they are, celebrates Halloween. Growing up, everyone had that mean old Mr. Caruthers guy on their block that would yell at them for running on his lawn. But on Halloween, even he was there waiting with a bowl of candy and a smile.
Another great thing about Hal
loween is that the adults get into it just as much as the kids. Every person who works in an office has a never-ending supply of khakis and pant suits.
Nevertheless, the one day out of the year that they get to see Joe from accounting dressed as David Lee Roth makes it almost worthwhile to live through the other 364. Halloween is one of the only times that people just shut up and try to have fun.
It allows for people to have a sense of humor about things rather than an "I'm being persecuted!" attitude. It truly brings everyone together.
So I have some advice for a certain George W. the next time he meets with other world leaders to discuss treaties. I advise he skips putting on a suit and doing the whole handshake thing, but instead put on a Gene Simmons mask and hand Vladimir Putin a Butterfinger. It would make him happy like it makes so many of us happy in this country.
Soul, peace. n' chicken grease and a Happy Halloween to all.

Sex column stirring strong reaction
Every Thursday restless whispers move through morning classes. At the center of all the attention, hidden away in the Jayplay section, is Meghan Bainum's sex column.
What started out as a reporting project on fetishes blossomed into what is arguably the most talked about and widely read column in the Kansan.
There's the cynical reader: "So according to Meghan Bainum that writes the sex column, we should just sleep with everyone on campus and spread those STDs." The inquisitive reader: "You seem like a very adventurous gal. Have you ever had a three-some? What about another gal?"
It seems as if everyone has an opinion about the new sex column. Here's what some readers are saying:
There is the disgusted reader:
"Meghan Bainum's column is unprofessional, immature and a waste of valuable space." The extolling reader:
"Meghan Bainum's sex column is the bomb. I worked with the girl and she would do anything she talks about in her column."

some? What am I doing?
And then there is the excited reader:
"I don't think you guys should be slamming on Meghan because I took her advice and, ahhhh, got myself a, ahhhh, real nice vibrator, mmmmmm."

along with a tiny mirror at the bottom. The column encouraged readers to explore their genitals with a mirror and a flashlight.
Bainum said she has received over 40 e-mails this semester from students, faculty and even an alumnus. She said most questions come from men and that the questions are usually from people looking for reassurance that what they feel or do sexually or how a certain body part looks (or functions).
Reader reaction in has been mixed. Some readers raise concerns about morality and how Bainum's column encourages promiscuity. Some also question her credibility on the subject. One reader wrote, "The sex column sucks. I don't need Bainum's advice. What does she know?" What does she really know and is she qualified to answer these types of questions?
"My job as a journalist isn't to know everything I report on," Bainum said. "There's no way to be an expert on everything that I write about. I do research, I call people and I talk to people informally. I don't think my job is to know everything about a subject, but to put it out to the world in a way they can understand it."
"Journalism is all about giving you the truth," Phelps said. "Talk about things that people are talking about anyways. Sex and dating is a big part of daily life. It's such a big part of what's on the mind of readers."
Kursten Phelps, Kansan editor, said Bainum wasn't a professional sex therapist, and trying to get clinical answers
to complex questions wasn't the point of the column.
Or as one reader put it. "It's about time someone had the 'balls' to put in print what everyone else is thinking about."
"Sex in this culture is a very offensive topic," Bainum said. "Everyone is really, really uptight about a natural act between two people. It's such a taboo, but it's out there. It's everywhere. Everyone has questions."
Some of Bainum's topics or viewpoints are not entirely prudent, but the positives outweigh the negatives.
Bainum said she wanted readers to remember not to take her too seriously. She said she's just a college student trying to connect with other college students about a subject that affects them in their everyday lives.
A column about sex provides readers with an outlet to learn about and explore the sexual aspect of their lives. If anything, it opens up communication about a rather hushed, yet important, topic. Perhaps, instead of promoting promiscuity, the column will help some readers better understand the act of sex and thus, help them to respect it.
As Bainum put it, "Even if you don't want to participate in sex, learn about it, because some day you may want to do it."

Lack of daylight, increase in melatonin can leave some students feeling SAD
By Adam Pracht Special to the Kansan
For some, daylight-saving time isn't just setting clocks back an hour. It can also contribute to a form of seasonal depression.
"It itks because you get out of class and it's dark outside," said Jo Marie Hart, Stilwell senior. "I'm in class all the daytime hours now."
Scott Seetin, Kansas City. Kan., senior, said he didn't like to miss the nice weather.
"It kind of slows my day down when it gets dark," he said.
But for some people, the short winter days can mean more than sleepiness or missing good weather.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression caused by decreased daylight and higher production of melatonin during the months of October through March.
Wade said the symptoms were the same as classical depression, but this type of disorder related specifically to the decreased number of daylight hours in winter.
People with SAD experience
decreased motivation, changes in appetite and sleep, low energy and pessimism. Wade said.
Treatment for the disorder is relatively simple, however. Wade said mild cases could be treated with exercise, healthy eating and good sleeping habits.
More extreme cases can be treated with a combination of psychotherapy and phototherapy. In phototherapy, patients are exposed to bright lights early in the morning to adjust the body to the lack of light.
Carlos Borda, La Paz,
Bolivia, freshman, said he
appreciated the "gift."
"For most people, daylight-saving time is not a problem," said Randall Rock, staff physician at Watkins Health Center. "In fact, by some it is perceived as a gift."

Four Muslim panelists denounce terrorism at lecture
By J.R. Mendoza Kansan staff writer
A panel of four Muslims united last night to condemn terrorism and the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks at a discussion about Islam.
"The question has been, 'Why didn't Muslims stand up and say 'no' and that it was wrong?'?" said panelist David Omar, executive director of the North American Islamic Conference. "People should stand up. I am doing it right now. I'm saying that terrorism is wrong, inhuman, unfathomable and un-Islamic."
Omar then turned to the other
panelists, who agreed with what he said.
About 75 people attended the discussion, "Understanding Islam," last night at the Kansas Union. The event was sponsored by Lawrence Peace Project and the department of humanities and western civilization.
The discussion was followed with a video segment on the history of Islam. The video explained the origins of Mohammed, who founded the religion in Saudi Arabia around 600 A.D.
Moussa Elbayoumy, a physician and member of the Islamic Center that facilitated the dialogue, said the event's purpose was to promote the understanding of Islam.
"Martin Luther King Jr. said that we hate each other because we're afraid from each other or because we don't know each other," he said. "Ignorance is probably the worst of emotions It's a source of hate."
The crowd asked questions about Islamic culture, the treatment of women in the Islamic culture, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the role of the scarves that Muslim women wear.
Sarah Zaman, Leawood junior and panelist, explained that
"It's more for us to be seen for our intellect and mind." Zaman said.
wearing the scarf was a symbol of equality for her.
Asma Rehman, Kansas City. Mo., junior and panelist, said for her, wearing the scarf was also done for equality and for her protection.
"When I talk to a man, I am not judged by my beauty," she said.
Kesa Alexander, Wichita senior, said the discussion was educational.
"A lot of people don't know the history of Islam and understand the faith," she said.

Unease won't stop Halloween
The Associated Press
Many Kansans appear ready to continue their Halloween traditions despite lingering uneasiness from the terrorist attacks and anthrax scare.
Some say the decision not to curtail activities today is partly in defiance of the terrorists, while others say they simply don't believe this Halloween will be more dangerous.
"We are doing exactly what President Bush asked us to do — move forward, don't let it alter our lives," said Wayne Cash, general manager of Oak Park Mall in Overland Park, one of the Kansas City area's largest shopping centers that hands out candy to children.
Cash said the mall will add extra police and has taken every precaution it can "in the unlikely event of something unforeseen."
but he added, "to not do Halloween and continue the tradition would imply that there is a problem when there just isn't."
The same attitude exists in Newton, which has had a Safe Halloween Walk downtown for the last five or six years, said Virgil Penner, chief executive officer
of the Newton Chamber of Commerce.
The town of nearly 17,000 people north of Wichita blocks off Main Street on Halloween night and area businesses hand out candy.
The event was started to enhance the children's safety and build community spirit, Penner said.
"I think the general feeling here is that we're not going to let fear destroy what we can do in this community to keep the spirit going," he said.
Penner acknowledged that some parents may appreciate the Safe Halloween Walk a little more this year.
"Really, the unknowns aren't here," he said. "The businesses handing out the candy, the chamber knows them. Most people know the people who are participating."
Sedgwick County Emergency Management director Randall Duncan said he was pleased local officials were not changing Halloween celebrations.
Duncan said he was not aware of any communities in the Wichita area that had canceled Halloween. The only warnings being issued are the usual safety concerns about Halloween.
"It is really a good thing—it is a coping mechanism. Kids will get to do something that they are used to doing," he said.
New security measures are being implemented at the Hutchinson Mall for its Halloween party, said mall manager Dan Floors. Only children 12 and under will be allowed to wear masks and children are being asked not to bring toy weapons. Costumes will be allowed only during the Halloween event.
Police officials in Hutchinson, Overland Park and Topeka all said that no extra patrols or special security are planned, beyond the extra officers that are generally on duty this Halloween.
Kansas City-area candy stores aren't taking any extra precautions, either. In one Mr. Bulky's, employees are wearing costumes and trying harder to help people enjoy the holiday.
"We're trying to make it as fun as possible to keep everybody's minds off things," said Heather Sermersheim, manager at Mr. Bulky's at the Great Mall of the Great Plains in Olathe. "Between laughing at us and the candy, we've got people covered."

Student rec center opening moved back to Spring 2003
Students eager to work out in the yet-to-be-built recreation center will have to wait another semester.
Mary Chappell, director of recreation services, said the center was originally slated to open in Fall 2002, but the opening had been moved back to Spring 2003.
Chappell said the center's opening had been delayed partly because recreation services wanted to ensure all safety precautions, such as adherence to safety codes, had been taken care of.
"We've given them all kinds of opportunities and I think that we've gotten a good idea of what they want in there," Chappell said. "Robinson has never been a recreation center. It's going to be their facility."
Chappell said she hoped students would enjoy the center when it opened.
Michael Kissack, Columbus, Ohio, junior, said he rarely worked out at Robinson Gymnasium.
"I the equipment there is kind of outdated," Kissack said. "It's hard to work out there when it's crowded."
He said he thought a lot of students would go to the rec center when it opened. The rec center, which will be built on the field south of Watkins Memorial Health Center, will include a space for sports clubs, two large cardiovascular areas and outdoor basketball courts.
Jessica Bankston, member of the Campus Recreation and Fitness Design and Planning committee, said that Robinson would still be available to students. However, the new center was created to serve the students first, as opposed to Robinson, where clubs and organizations are the higher priority.
"At this point, we are waiting for the architects to finish." Bankston said.
She said that the student fees being assessed to pay for the building — $49 per student this semester — were staggered and increased over time. That way, she said, students who won't be at the University to use the center once it's completed didn't have to pay as much when the fees were first assessed.

NYC hospital employee tests positive for anthrax
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A 61-year-old hospital worker is "struggling for her survival" after preliminarily testing positive for the dangerous inhalation anthrax, the city health commissioner said yesterday.
The source of the infection is not known. Some environmental samples from the woman's workplace, the Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, have come back negative, while others are pending, and no one else is showing signs of the disease, said Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.
The cause of the infection was not immediately confirmed, but Giuliani said it was assumed to be anthrax.
Other hospitals in the city have been alerted "to take precautions
... and share their findings with us," Health Commissioner Neal Cohen said.
Dr. Steven Ostroff of the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the case was troubling because it was the first in New York involving the inhalation form of the disease and because unlike all New York's other anthrax cases, "There's no clear linkage with the mail," Ostroff said.
The woman started feeling ill on Thursday and entered the hospital on Sunday, authorities said. They were alerted to the case Monday and announced it late in the day.
"There was a rapid progression from Saturday to Sunday," Commissioner Cohen said.
Cohen said antibiotics would be offered to anyone who might have encountered the woman dating back to Oct. 11, two weeks before the onset of her symptoms. The mayor said about 200 people worked in the hospital and that hundreds if not thousands of patients had come through in that time.
Giuliani said the ill woman worked in the hospital's supply room, which shared space or was close to the hospital's mail room. But there was "no indication of a letter yet" as the source of the anthrax, he said.
In Florida, New Jersey and Washington, D.C., three people have died from inhaled anthrax, three others have confirmed cases and one has recovered.
FBI: More attacks possible
OMAHA, Neb. — The task before Gov. Mike Johanns, like the other 49 governors, was unenviable; Nebraska officials, already on high alert, were asked to go even higher.
The Associated Press
Monday, the FBI issued a new terrorism warning — the second this month — asking Americans to be on the highest alert for possible attacks this week, though no specific threat was identified.
"I am taking this warning very, very seriously," Johanns said.
Across the nation, governors struggled with how to respond after being notified of the new
threat during a conference call with Tom Ridge, the nation's new homeland security director.

Montana Gov. Judy Martz announced yesterday how the state planned to respond to the FBI warning. "As soon as we know what we're doing, we'll give you as much information as we can," she said.
Many other officials shared her concern — and frustration.
"Obviously, if you're at the highest state, it's hard to go higher," said Jim McDonald, spokesman for a company that operates the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Plant, 50 miles west of Phoenix.
Strikes on Afghanistan 'relentless'
The Associated Presse
CHARIKAR; Afghanistan — An American bomb blasted huge plumes of smoke 1,000 feet into the skies over Afghanistan's front lines yesterday in an unusually mighty airstrike.

The opposition alliance deployed hundreds of troops near Taliban lines north of Kabul, the first tangible sign of preparations for an assault on the capital.
The United States acknowledged it had uniformed military personnel in Afghanistan, coordinating airstrikes with the opposition. A senior opposition official said such coordination would increase in coming days and that alliance forces were planning a major offensive to wrest the strategic northern city of Mazar-e-Sharif from the Taliban.
"There is coordination in all aspects," Abdullah, the foreign minister of the Afghan government-in-exile, said in an interview with Associated Press Television News.

U. S. jets pounded Taliban positions in the Balkh region around Mazar-e-Sharif yesterday,
Witnesses also said they saw a U.S. plane drop a bomb yesterday at the Bagram front lines, about 25 miles north of Kabul, creating a mushroom cloud that billowed at least 1,000 feet into the air. Witnesses called it the biggest bomb to hit the area in 10 days of American bombardments on the front lines.

Rebate checks can still be claimed after address corrections are made
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Almost 300,000 tax rebate checks worth an average of $322 apiece are languishing at the Internal Revenue Service, waiting for taxpayers to claim them. Checks were returned undelivered from all 50 states and the territories of Guam, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands.
IRS Commissioner Charles Rossotti said yesterday that taxpayers who do not claim their checks by Dec. 5 will have to wait for the money until they file their 2001 income tax returns next year.
we'll send the check on its way."
"All we need is a good address," Rossotti said. "As soon as we get the correct address.
The 295,000 rebate checks are worth about $95 million. They represent only a fraction of 1 percent of the 85 million rebate checks mailed out as part of the 10-year, $1.35 trillion tax cut signed into law in June by President Bush.
The checks of up to $300 for individuals, $500 for heads of households and $600 for married couples represented this year's payment for a new 10 percent income tax bracket created by the law.
Congress may direct the IRS to mail out a second batch of checks as part of pending legislation intended to stimulate the economy. If approved, those checks would most likely go to people whose incomes were too low to qualify for the first round and those who didn't get the full amount initially.
amount military.
Some of the undelivered rebate checks appeared intended for American soldiers.
The ZIP code with the most
returned refund checks — 379 — was at Camp Pendleton in California. The IRS also listed 188 returned checks from the Marine Corps base at Camp Lejeune, N.C., 175 from Fort Campbell Army base in Kentucky and 156 from Fort Hood, Texas.
California had the most returned checks, at 38,929 followed by Texas with 25,710 Florida with 24,975 and New York with 15,734. There are more than 21,000 cities on the list, with Chicago having the most returned checks at 4,401.
The IRS interprets a 1950s-era federal law as prohibiting the agency from posting a list of names on its Internet site. The list can be posted privately.
Aside from the Internet, people who believe they are due a check can call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040. Taxpayers can also notify the IRS about a new address by filing Form 8822, which can be downloaded from the agency's Internet Web site.
Founder's great-grandson takes reins at Ford Motors
The Associated Press
DEARBORN, Mich. — Ford Motor Co. chairman William Clay Ford Jr. took over as chief executive of the struggling automaker yesterday after the ouster of Jacques Nasser, becoming the first Ford in 22 years to run day-to-day operations.
"We've been given an amazing legacy, and we're going to build an even better one," said the 44-year-old great-grandson of Henry Ford.
Nasser's fate had been the subject of widespread speculation as the world's second-largest automaker lost sales amid the Firestone tire debacle and questions about the quality of its vehicles.
Ford complimented his predecessor, saying Nasser "made many significant contributions to our business operations around the world, and we all appreciate his dedication." He said the job "is not something I sought, but
something the board thought was necessary."
automaker.
But last year, Ford was shaken by the news that people were dying in accidents when the treads separated from Firestone tires, most of which were installed on Ford Explorers. Federal authorities say there is no evidence the Explorer's design was at fault, but the automaker has reportedly spent millions to settle more than 100 Firestone-related lawsuits.
was necessary.
Nasser, 53, earned the moniker "Jac the Knife" for his prodigious cost-cutting. He took over as CEO in 1999 when Ford was poised to overtake General Motors as the world's top automaker.
Nasser resigned Mondayafternoon during a meeting with Ford.
"This seemed to be the right time," Ford said. "Outside events like Firestone weighed heavily on management distraction."
The management shake-up includes the elevation of North American group vice president Nick Scheele to chief operating officer. Known as "Mr. Fixit," Scheele was brought in last July in the first sign that Nasser's job was on the line.
Ford's market share is down, slipping during the first nine months of 2001 to 22.6 percent from 22.8 percent a year ago.
Sales of Ford vehicles through September were down 11 percent from the first nine months of 2000, a record sales year for the industry. In the third quarter of 2001, Ford lost $692 million after earning $888 million a year earlier.
Looking for ways to save money, Ford announced in August it would cut 4,000 to 5,000 salaried positions by the end of the year through voluntary buyouts or early retirement packages. More restructuring moves are expected.
Court to review affirmative action
The Associated Press
DENVER — A white contractor who lost a highway guardrail job to a Hispanic-owned company 12 years ago is making his third trip to the U.S. Supreme Court in a battle to roll back minority preferences in the awarding of government contracts.
Randy Pech, owner of Adarand Constructors Inc. in Colorado Springs, Colo., won a major victory in 1995 when the Court ruled that the federal government must follow strict rules justifying special treatment for minorities when it awarded construction contracts.
Congress then established a new program that eliminated quotas and bonuses to contractors who hire minority subcontractors. It requires minority contractors to sign notarized statements swearing they have been discriminated against in the past and bars people with a net worth of $750,000 or higher from participating in this affirmative action program.
Pech's attorneys will argue before the court today that the government has yet to prove that special treatment for minority contractors is needed.
If the court rules the program unconstitutional, it could call into question other federal affirmative action programs, said Mark Rahdert, associate dean of Temple University's law school. It also could provide insight into the court's thinking on affirmative action cases involving college admissions, he said.
Marisa Demayo, regional counsel for the Mexican-Ameri
can Legal Defense and Educational Fund, said the construction-contract program had already been scaled back enough.
"Without the program, women- and minority-owned businesses really will lose the little chance they have now," she said.
said.
Pech sued the government in 1990 after his company's low bid to erect a five-mile guardrail in Colorado was rejected. The Transportation Department's program at the time gave bonuses to contractors if at least 10 percent of their subcontracts went to disadvantaged enterprises. At the time, all four of Adarand's competitors benefited from the program.
Full moon adds fear to fright night
The Associated Press
MIAMI — For the first time in 46 years, this year's Halloween ghosts and goblins can trick or treat by the light of a full moon. They won't get another chance until 2020, astronomers said.
Wednesday night's full moon will look like an orange jack-o'lantern rising from the east at dusk, said Jack Horkheimer, executive director of the Miami Space Transit Planetarium.
It will appear orange at the horizon because it is seen through denser layers of the earth's atmosphere. Adding to the effect, the moon's tilt at this time of the year makes the "man in the moon" particularly visible.

Gaster series To make the superstitious even more jittery, a constellation associated with the some end-of-the-world beliefs will also be at the top of the night's sky.
jack-o-lantern carving was inspired by the rising, orange October moon, said Horkheimer, writer and host of PBS's nationally syndicated Star Gazer series for 25 years.

flood or the sinking of Atlantis. The Aztees and Mayans believed it would be overhead at midnight on the night the world comes to an end, Horkheimer said.
The Seven Sisters and the full moon will both be directly overhead at midnight, he said.
"It's just very nifty because it will be a very bright full moon and when it's up high like that, it will just flood the landscape with a lovely bright light," said Horkheimer.
Technically, the moment the moon will be at its fullest is 12:41 a.m. EST tomorrow, but the moon will look virtually full when trick or treaters are out in force tonight.

What's News-
In Business and Finance
Key economic reports provided growing evidence of a slowdown.
Economic Bulwarks Show Weakness
Consumer confidence plunged in October to its lowest level in seven years, the Conference Board reported, as the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks sapped optimism about job security and the economy. Consumers have been one of the main factors preventing the economy from sliding into recession. But many economists now believe a recession is inevitable because of the fallout from the attacks.
Likewise, the housing market, which had been one of the economy's few remaining bright spots, saw big sales declines in September. Sales of existing homes plunged nearly 12%, their biggest tumble in six years. And new-home sales fell 1.4%. The housing market "no longer can provide the support to the economy that it has in the past year," said David Orr, chief economist at Wachovia Securities in Charlotte, N.C.
Other reports showed rising layoffs and tumbling orders for capital goods, and there are few signs of a rebound in business investment.
Travelers Bypass The Bright Lights
Wary of air travel and high-profile resorts, more Americans are vacationing in smaller, sleepier spots they can drive to.
Among the destinations seeing business surge since the terrorist attacks: Reno, Nev., a gambling mecca about four hours from San Francisco; and Saratoga Springs, N.Y., a resort town about three hours north of New York whose heyday predated the rise of jet travel.
Walt Disney Co., for one, is trying to counter the trend with a big marketing push to lure visitors to its parks. After pulling its television advertising for about three weeks after the attacks, Disney now is spending tens of millions of dollars on TV ads and placing spots in unsold slots on its ABC and ESPN networks.
Bayer Will Still Profit From Discount Cipro
Under pressure from the U.S. government to cut its prices, Bayer Corp. announced what it termed a "historic" accord last week to sell the government Cipro, the anthrax-fighting antibiotic, for 95 cents a pill. But generic makers and critics say the pact is still enormously profitable.
A Bayer spokeswoman declined to comment on the company's costs and pricing on Citro. Helge Wehmeier, president and CEO of Bayer Corp., the U.S. subsidiary of Germany's Bayer AG, said in a statement, "Bayer is fully committed to supporting America in its war on bioterrorism."
Ranbaxy Inc., a generic-drug maker in Princeton, N.J., has offered to sell the pill for 40 cents apiece in the U.S.,"and we'd still be making money at that price," said Dipack Chattara], Ranbaxy's president. Ranbaxy's parent company, based in India, sells a generic form of Cipro there for about 30 cents a pill. "It's a very easy product to make." Mr. Chattara] said.
Cipro's wholesale price in the U.S. averages $4.67 a pill. Bayer normally sells it to the U.S. government for $1.77 a pill.

Sony Uses PlayStation To Boost PS2 Sales
Sony, Corp.'s PlayStation franchise will soon face competition from Nintendo Co.'s Gamecube and Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox, the software giant's first foray into the video-game industry. Sony's response: Use the original PlayStation, a technological dinosaur, to grab more of the lower end of the market, where Nintendo's handheld Game Boy reigns. The strategy aims to ensure consumer loyalty to PS2, the PlayStation's popular successor.
Sony plans to release a portable version of PlayStation along with a slew of new kids' games, including one based on the wildly popular "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" book and movie of the same name. The film is scheduled for release on Nov. 16.

Delays at the Baggage Scanner
How to contact us:

Security experts, worried travelers and government officials are imploring airlines to scan checked baggage for bombs now that suicidal terrorists have struck domestically.
State-of-the-Art Machines Are Slow, Inaccurate; Fruitcakes Trip Alarms
RV ELLIOT SPAGAT
But will airlines do that? Not likely.
Fewer than 150 sophisticated luggage-s scanning machines capable of detecting bombs and plastic explosives were scattered at 47 U.S. airports at the end of September. Even though the Federal Aviation Administration paid for them - at a cost of about $1 million apiece - airlines complain that they are slow, cumbersome to operate and notorious for sounding false alarms.
"We're dealing with first-generation, first-generation-and-a-half, equipment," says Dick Doubraw, managing director of security for the Air Transport Association, a trade group for major airlines. The airlines refer questions on security matters to the group instead of discussing them themselves.
Early Days
L. 3 Communications Holdings Inc., one of only two companies certified by the FAA to make the explosive-scanning machines, says false alarms sound for about 22 of every 100 bags. But that rate that would create chaos if each one of those pieces of luggage had to be opened and searched. The other certified company, InVision Technologies Inc., has a similar rate. The problem is that the machines look for things that are dense, meaning that that shoes, pots and even fruitcakes can set off alarms.

handling. Even if the FAA supplied hundreds more machines to expand screening to all domestic flights, aviation experts say the process would bring maddening waits for passengers.
With so many glitches, the FAA planned to wait until 2009 to begin phasing in requirements for airlines to scan all checked bags for explosives at U.S. airports. When the suicide hijackings that destroyed the World Trade Center and damaged the Pentagon spurred calls for a much faster pace, FAA Administrator Jane Garvey said the agency could move the date up to 2004.
Similarly, consumer advocates are dismayed by the lack of progress since Pan Am Flight 103 blew up over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, the result of a plastic explosive in a bag. Paul Hudson, executive director of the Aviation Consumer Action Project in Washington, D.C., says the government and airlines simply haven't wanted to spend money.

"Completely unacceptable," said Philadelphia Mayor John Street after she announced the accelerated timetable at a conference of mayors last week.

COLLEGEJOURNAL.COM
Before Sept. 11, the FAA required only that airlines scan bags of domestic passengers whose reservation information posed security questions, estimated at $3% to $5% of all travelers, according to Transportation Department Inspector General Kenneth Mead. Using their computer systems, airlines flaged suspicious activity using closely guarded criteria, such as a passenger's travel history and how a ticket was purchased, and set aside suspect bags for scanning. But since Sept. 11, the FAA has begun requiring airlines that have advanced scanners to use them continuously, not just to check luggage of suspicious passengers.
**camping up**
InVision, which made nearly all of the 142 explosives scanners in use at 47 U.S. airports as of the end of September, was producing four machines a month before Sept. 11. The company says it can ramp up to as many as 50 a month if it moves to round-the-clock production. L-3 was making two to four machines a month before Sept. 11 and says that in six months it can step up production to 35 to 40 a month.
Ramping Up
To ensure competition, Congress has required the FAA to buy the same number of machines from InVision as from L-3. But the L-3 machines have been plagued with questions about bugs.
An L-3 machine at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport "had operational problems from the day it was installed in the spring 2000," Mr. Mead told Congress recently. Between July 2000 and July 2001, it needed to be repaired every 84 hours on average, with more than six hours needed to fix it. Joseph Paresi, who heads L-3's security-systems division, says the scanner's performance has since improved and notes Mr. Mead's findings were limited to one airport. In Vision says it ran into the same kinds of problems as L-3 when it began introducing machines in the mid-1990s.
▲ InVision's CTX5500 can handle up to 384 bags an hour. It is 14 1/2 feet long and weighs 9,350 pounds
In addition, the scanners, which slice and dice suspicious objects into hundreds of pictures, like a hospital CT scan, can each handle only about one planeload of luggage an hour, about 150 bags. With an estimated one billion bags checked each year at U.S. airports, airlines fear a logistical nightmare unless the machines run faster and more accurately.
Airlines have come under criticism for failing to use the machines even after the FAA buys them. The Transportation Department found that airlines screened on average only 350 bags a day in July, far less than the equipment is capable of
What's more, the machines are so big—the fastest one is nearly 16 feet long—that it is hard to find floor space for them in crowded terminals or cramped baggage rooms.
Airlines have other scanning technology at their disposal, including the X-ray machines used to check all carry on luggage. These cheaper scanners can handle more bags and are good at spotting metal, but they are not designed to detect sophisticated explosives. Israel, known for its strict security procedures, uses the sophisticated scanners.
A month after terrorist attacks sent Americans scrambling to their TV sets, some once-avid TV news viewers are tuning out. Doctors and psychiatrists say there is anecdotal evidence that news-media overload is becoming an increasingly common complaint, what with the constant flow of scary developments and myriad news channels now available.
Researchers who study the way Americans consume media say people are on emotional overload. Those pulling back from TV news "still want major developments and they want to have programming interrupted if there are major events that warrant that," says Steve Ridge, an executive with Frank Magid Associates, a media-research and consulting firm in Marion, Iowa. "Once they have an update, they're seeking TV that is going to entertain, relax and amuse them."

"If television or other news reports significantly increase feelings of anxiety and helplessness, don't watch or read them," the APA urged.
Nielsen figures show daytime TV viewership fell to about 29 million homes the week of Oct. 14, down nearly 20% from the week beginning Sept. 9, when an average of 36 million TV homes were watching TV, but still above the roughly 27 million homes watching TV at the same time the year before.
The media fatigue some are feeling is a relatively new phenomenon. The last time the U.S. was at war, in 1991, the explosion of media outlets hadn't happened yet. In 1991, CNN and its sister channel Headline News, both part of AOL Time Warner Inc., were available in less than 60 million homes, compared with more than 80 million homes today.
CNN's war coverage sparked a boom in new TV channels and networks. In 1996, NBC and Microsoft Corp. launched the news channel MSNBC, while News Corp. started the Fox News Channel. News media also took their first steps onto the Internet in the mid-1990s.

Soccer player raising cash for cancer
As the Kansas soccer team continues to pile up victories on the field, sophomore midfielder Maggie Mason is trying to make a difference off of it.
Mason is helping to raise money to support cancer research and boost support for Kansas athletics.
She came up with an idea to sell T-shirts at Kansas sporting events, with all proceeds going to the American Cancer Society. The shirts, which will be blue with the words "Feel the Pride" written on them, will cost $5 each.
The Student Athletics Advisory Committee (SAAC), composed of two athletes from each Kansas athletic team, is responsible for developing and implementing the program. Mason, who is a member of the committee, said the first shirts should be available by the Kansas-Iowa State football game Saturday, Nov. 17.
The original plan to sell the shirts at Kansas athletics events hit a snag because the Athletics Department prohibits groups who are not raising money for the department from vending at more than one game per season for each team. That means that the committee, nobly trying to raise money to fight cancer, can sell T-shirts at only one Kansas basketball game and one Kansas football game this year.
Mason said the limit was designed to prevent the Athletics Department from losing money to outside sources. After all, who would buy a $20 T-shirt, when they are available for $5 and support a good cause?
support a good school This obstacle has in no way derailed Mason's enthusiasm. Plans are already in the works to offer the T-shirts to students outside Wesco Hall as they walk to and from class.
Mason said the project was the first step in Kansas athletic programs' effort to become more united with each other and more connected with fans.
"I hope this will start something big," she said.
Mason's commitment to improving Kansas athletics earned her the honor of representing Kansas athletes at last summer's Foundation Leadership Conference in Orlando, Fla. She was chosen by members of the Committee based on a one-page essay she submitted that outlined the goals she had set since coming to Kansas. Among them was increasing student support of athletic programs. She said the T-shirt project was designed to do just that.
Many athletes come to college just to play sports. Others use sports as a means to get an education. Mason, a native of Elmira, Ontario, Canada, goes a step further. She's dedicated to both soccer and her grades, maintaining a 3.85 grade point average, but she also wants to make a difference.
Mason's motto, "Reach for the stars and never look back," tells much about the way she lives. It was advice given to her by a friend back in Canada.
"As an athlete and a person you go through so many struggles," she said. "He told me, 'You have to do what you have to do. If it doesn't work out, at least you tried.'"
Now in Lawrence, more than 20 driv ing hours away from where she grew up, Mason still follows that advice.
One day to the next, she aims high and never stops trying. She is one Kansas athlete worth rooting for.

Jayhawks beat Billikens 3-0
Team heading into Big 12 tournament with 3-win streak
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
Good things are coming three at a time for the Kansas soccer team.
Junior defender Brianna Valento became the third player this season to score three goals in a game as the Jayhawks defeated St. Louis University 3-0 yesterday for its third shutout in a row.
Senior forward Hilla Rantala provided all three assists, as Kansas improved to 12-5 on the season. The Billikens fell to 8-8-1

have to be doing strike came in Valento's first strike came in the 27th minute. After Rantala lofted the ball into the crowded box, Valento headed it past Billiken goalkeeper Meghan Burke, breaking the scoreless tie.
Valento completed her hat trick in the 65th minute, again off a Rantala free kick, and again headed into the corner of the net.
The duo was back for more in the 51st minute, when a similar goal off a free kick put the Jayhawks up 2-0.
"And she got all three assists. It was extra special coming from her."
"Before the game, Hilla said to me, 'I feel it for you,'" Valento said.
Valentio joins teammates Natalie Hoogveld and Monica Brothers as the only players to in team history to record a hat trick, or three goals in one game.
The Jayhawks have outscored their opponents 11-0 in the last three games.
With the Big 12 tournament kicking off in one week, Valento said practice was starting to pay off for the team.
"Everything has just been clean," Valento said. "We've been working hard, and it's finally coming together for us."
Kansas plays Missouri at 3 p.m. on Friday in the regular season finale at Super Target Field. The winner will clinch fourth place in the Big 12 standings.

Football team searching for its identity
By Brent Briggeman Kansan sportswriter
Kansas football coach Terry Allen wants what Oklahoma and Nebraska have.
Those teams have an identity. Allen's doesn't.
Those teams know "That's something that we all strive to do is to be able to have our own identity." Allen said. "That's what successful programs have."
Allen pointed to the Oklahoma defense, a unit that until last weekend had led its team to a 20-game winning streak by making big plays every week.
He also talked about the consistency of the Nebraska running game, which is on pace to lead the nation for the eighth time in the past 12 years.
Kansas has no such identity.
The Jayhawks started the year hoping to make their name through the air. With new offensive coordinator Rip Scherer, they opened up the offense with four receivers and ran the shotgun from the no-huddle.
That identity lasted only a few weeks.
That identity asked Harrison (Hill) and had so many injuries to receivers we had to change it in the middle of the stream and tried to pull the reins on that," Allen said.
Kansas now ranks 87th out of 117 Division I schools in the nation in passing offense.
In the week-four upset against Texas Tech, Kansas looked dominant on the ground. Behind Reggie Duncan's career-high 227 yards, the Jayhawks ran for 288 yards and won 34-51 on the road. The ground success was short-lived, as Kansas has averaged just 78 yards rushing in three losses since winning in Lubbock, Texas.

Kansas now ranks 91st in rushing offense.
Kansas now ranks 54th in the league. For a time, it looked like the defense might be the unit to define Kansas. Under new defensive coordinator Tom Hayes, the defense atoned for several early offensive fumbles against then-No. 2 Oklahoma before tiring late. The following week, the Jayhawks prevented Missouri from getting a first down on their first three possessions as they dominated in the first quarter. The flood gates have opened since then, as Missouri scored 38 points in the final three

Wide receiver awaits ruling about redshirt from NCAA

The team's coaching staff and Al Bohl, Kansas athletics director, have encouraged Hill that getting a medical redshirt was possible.
"I haven't had the full opportunity to play all my years like most people have," Hill said.
Hill came to Kansas in the summer of 1997. He was primed to contribute in his true freshman season, but he broke his left ankle while blocking for a teammate in Kansas' second game of the season.

Jayhawks look to end Wildcat domination
By Steve Laurenzo
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team will attempt to beat Kansas State for the first time since 1994 at 7 tonight at the Horejsi Family Athletic Center. Earlier this season, the Wildcats beat the Jayhawks 3-0 on Oct. 3 in Manhattan.
Kansas State has gone 4-3 since that match while Kansas has managed just 2-8.
Kansas (13-11, 3-10) is coming off a pair of losses during the weekend to Texas Tech and Baylor. Kansas State (12-7, 8-5) lost two of its last three matches,
including a loss on Saturday to No. 2 Nebraska.
Like the Jayhawks, the Wildcats were pummed by the Nebraska Cornhuskers at the Nebraska Coliseum in Lincoln, Neb. The Cornhuskers kept Kansas State to a season-low 2.2 percent hitting percentage.
The Cornhuskers dominated the Wildcats in all areas of the match. Nebraska posted 18 more kills, 19 more digs and six more blocks than Kansas State.
Kansas' performance against the 'Huskers was similar. The 'Hawks managed to hit 6.3 percent, but

HOROSCOPES
LA JUSTICIA
Today's Birthday (Oct. 31).
Stability is your objective, and it is your natural inclination. One who shares that goal is your partner now and perhaps forever. You choose. The stars impel, they do not compel. Making the commitment is up to you both.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 7.
Should you keep what you have, or should you invest in an attempt to make more? A long-term investment could work, but a short-term one probably won't. Let your money do the work, but you still need to supply the brains.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7.
You and your partner have an advantage; each other. Your adversary isn't as fortunate but is still formidable. Don't take him or her for granted. Figure out how to work the system and get all the benefits.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 7.
You're an upfront person most of the time, but you can keep a secret if you put your mind to it. You're not being sneaky or dishonest, hopefully. You're waiting until the time is right to divulge what you know. Now is not that time.
Cancer (June 22- July 22) — Today is a 7.
You're collecting good feedback and making new contacts. That's the best use of your time.
Don't try to convince anybody of anything.
They're all too set in their ways. For now, continue your preparations.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7.
Slow down a little. You pushed hard for the past few days. Now, coast. New problems are showing up, but that's to be expected. You're into new territory now. Start making new lists, and you'll be checking things off in no time at all. Take it easy.
Virgo (Aug.23-Sept.22) Today is an 8.
The hard part is over, at least for a while.
Right now, you should be doing well and entering a learning phase. Taking a class might be tough, but it could be worth the trouble. You should only do it for a fascinating subject, or if you're working toward your degree.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22) — Today is a 7.
It's time to take care of business again. Although magic is in the air, some contact with reality is required. Don't forget to pay the mortgage or the rent.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
Don't be bothered by something that's not workin properly. This goes for people, too. You and a good, solid partner can get just about whatever you want, so find somebody to back up your position. Alone, it's a struggle.
Together, it's just another bump to be smoothed out.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan.19) — Today is a 7.
You're the keeper of the family legends. Don't keep those stories to yourself. The next generation needs to hear the tales of courage, defeat and triumph. They are living proof of those victories.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 7.
It's time for another rest. Slow down and take stock. Count your wins and tally up your losses. Sleep more hours than usual tonight — and not with the help of pills, either.
Sagittarius (Nov 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7.
You're great at formulating lofty ideas and selling them. The hard part is closing the deal, getting people to pay, having that check clear the bank. You can do it; it gets easier with practice. Once you master this skill, you're set free.
9
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8.
The more you learn, the fewer things bug you.
Instead of a bunch of fears, you have confidence. You have skills, so don't let your fears keep you from learning.

Roses may await Cornhuskers
NCAA FOOTBALL
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska coach Frank Solich tries not to dwell on big wins any more than he laments a tough loss.
Even if beating Oklahoma 20-10 on Saturday put the Cornhuskers on top of the bowl Championship Series ratings. Solich was wary yesterday of making any Rose Bowl plans just yet.
"You put that in perspective in terms of the big picture and the big picture is where you're at at the end of the year," Solich said. "We expect that it will be a battle for anybody to get into the national championship game. There's no easy way to get in to that."
Not easy, but as the top-rated team in the BCS Nebraska (9-0 overall, 5-0 Big 12) does have the clearest path, starting Saturday at Kansas. The Jayhawks (2-5, 1-4) have lost 32 straight to Nebraska.
If the 'Huskers, who are ranked second in the sports writers' and coaches' polls, beat Kansas, Kansas State next weekend and Colorado on Nov. 23, they would clinch the North Division
title and a spot in the Big 12 championship Dec. 1. Winning a conference title would put the Huskers in the national title game Jan. 3.
Aloss in any of the remaining games could end national championship aspirations for the 'Huskers.
Huskers The 'Huskers are off to their best start in Solich's four seasons. The previous high was 1999, when Nebraska opened with six wins before losing at Texas 24-20, ultimately costing the 'Huskers a shot at the national title.
The following week the 'Huskers traveled to Kansas and were shocked early by the Jayhawks, who held a 9-10 lead at halftime. Nebraska rallied for a 24-17 win, but Solich admitted yesterday there had been a letdown after the disappointing loss to the Longhorns.

NCAA rule amendment could help recruitment
By Ryan Malashock Kansan sportswriter
Kansas remains in the chase for two recruiting prospects, and because of a possible NCAA rule amendment, the Jayhawks might be able to offer scholarships to both players.
If the "5/8" rule is amended at the NCAA's meeting tomorrow, Kansas coach Roy Williams will have the liberty to give out two more scholarships for the 2002-2003 season instead of one.
The "5/8" rule states that no more than eight scholarships may be awarded during a two-year period, and a maximum of five may be awarded in one of those two years.
But an NCAA committee is recommending that the rule be amended to allow nine scholarships within a two-year period. The "5/8" rule would then go back into effect for the 2003-2004 year.
"The NCAA does some things that defy my imagination." Knight said. "That rule was put together by people, none of whom have ever been coaches."
Most Big 12 Conference coaches sounded off in their disapproval of the "5/8" rule at the Big 12's media day last Thursday.
"It is clearly, clearly, clearly a bad rule," Kansas State head coach Jim Wooldridge said. "If a player leaves the program and is in line to graduate, if the student is in good academic standing, you cannot penalize the athletic program. It makes no sense."
First-year Texas Tech coach Bob Knight said the NCAA needed to hear the concerns of coaches before it put legislation into effect.
Kansas gave four scholarships for this season to Aaron Miles, Keith Langford, Michael Lee and Wayne Simien and has received commitments from redshirt Jeff Hawkins, who is currently on an
academic scholarship, Jeff Graves and Moulaye Niang for the 2002-2003 year.
The Jayhawks are still eying Hassan Adams, a 6-foot-4 shooting guard from Los Angeles, and Andre Igoluda, a 6-foot-6 swingman from Springfield, Ill.
Kansas has fought through a rigorous recruiting process for Adams' services. Adams visited Kansas the weekend of Sep. 8 and has kept the Jayhawks at the top of his list since.
Igoudala visited Arkansas last weekend, completing his official visits. In addition to Arkansas and Kansas, Igoudala is also considering Arizona and Boston College.

When Kansas coach Nicole Hollingsworth designed her team's fall schedule, she expected to have her team compete in 15 rounds of tournament play divided between five tournaments.
After the cancelation of the Mary Fossum Intercollegiate on Sept. 15 to 16 because of the terrorist attacks, and the weather cancellation of the first two rounds of the Marilynn Smith/Sunflower Invitational in Lawrence on Oct. 15, the Jayhawks lost five rounds of valuable play.
Although Kansas battled cancelations, the fall season still featured an array of peaks and valleys for Kansas.
Then came the dreaded layoff that Hollingsworth called a deterrent to her team's progress.
The Jayhawks didn't get much practice before they traveled to South Carolina, where they finished 14th out of 31 teams at the Baytree Intercollegiate Sept. 7 to 9.
The Jayhawks lost a meet in Manhattan with rival Kansas State that was played in lieu of the Marv Fossum tournament.
Nonetheless, the meet was a coming out party for sophomore Jennifer Bawanan, who recorded her first collegiate tournament title by winning the Sunflower Cup on a playoff hole after her round of 71.
The Jayhawks finished 14th out of 16 teams in the Big 12 Invitational Oct. 1 to 2 in Stillwater, Okla. Hollingsworth said the team's play showed improvement.
"When we beat a couple of teams in the Big 12 Invitational we had never beaten, it was good," Hollingsworth said. "We were also in contention with five or six other teams." Kansas finished ahead of Nebraska and Missouri.
As Kansas started the final two tournaments of the season, the lavihawks fell into a slump.
The team's 16th place finish out of 19 teams at the Women's Collegiate Shootout in Franklin, Ind., Oct. 8 to 9, and the 10th place finish in the 12-team field at the Marilynn Smith/Sunflower Invitational, left the Jayhawks with a improve their play this winter.
Hollingsworth said because Kansas wouldn't return to action until Feb. 18 to 19, the team would work out three times a week. Golfers also will have individual

workouts with Hollingsworth for two hours a week until the weather doesn't cooperate.
"I think we've beaten more teams than we've ever beaten before," Hollingsworth said. "They've all proven they can play good going into the spring. If we have a chance of getting a regional bid, we really have to light it up this spring."

terday. The coach, Markus Anwander, also was on a respirator but was not injured as severely as the 31-year-old super-G World Cup champion.
Cavagnoud remained in critical condition yesterday, one day after her accident.
"On the basis of checks we made today it has turned out that her condition is worse than expected," said Dr. Wolfgang Koller, head of the trauma intensive care unit at Innsbruck University Clinic.

Monday.
"We have received the confirmation that she likely suffered serious brain damage," he told The Associated Press by telephone. Asked if the damage was irreparable, the doctor said, "We cannot yet judge the full impact. This will be possible sometime tomorrow."
Koller said Cavagnoud had been under heavy sedation since Monday.
With the equipment in use, the skier's condition "can be kept stable," Koller said. Earlier in the day, he said Cavagnoud's condition was "life-threatening," as it had been since the accident.
Cavagnoud sustained serious head and brain injuries, several facial fractures and other injuries Monday. When she arrived at the clinic, emergency surgery was done on several parts of her body, Koller said.
German and French ski officials said yesterday that the accident was caused by communication problems between the teams.
Cavagnoud and the German coach were taken by helicopter from the Pitztal glacier to the hospital in Innsbruck on Monday.
The Austrian prosecutor has begun investigating yesterday whether the coach is responsible for the accident, said spokesman Rudolf Koll.

It seems Kansas' identity is that of a team that lacks identity, but it hasn't bothered the players.

Hill: Allen supports return
CONTINUED FROM 1B
away from becoming Kansas' all-time leader in receptions, the 5-foot-11, 200-pound captain was shoved out-of-bounds on a punt return by a UCLA player who used his helmet to spill Hill's left shoulder.
The tackle crushed four separate bones in his scapula and cloued his chance of returning to the field this season. The initial prognosis was that Hill would be sidelined six to eight weeks.
In the beginning of his absence from football, Hill was not interested in coming back for another season.
"For a long time, I just felt that a sixth year would not be an option," Hill said. "I had been in Lawrence awhile and that it was time to move on. But the more I thought about it and the more I looked at my options, the more I thought that this probably happened for a reason.
The decision was supported by Kansas coach Terry Allen, who said a prompt NCAA ruling would benefit Hill the most.
After wearing a supportive shoulder brace for five weeks. Hill received 24-hour bone stimulation from a pair of electrode patches hooked to his shoulder blade. The healing has come
"If they make a quick call on it, then it would be easier for him one way or the other." Allen said.
"Maybe I was supposed to stay in Lawrence for another season to keep on playing and get my master's. I had to make a smart decision."
along slowly, Hill said, but two weeks ago he was able to begin lifting weights. In the past week, he has been running routes with Kansas quarterbacks in Kansas' closed practices.
Though Hill is ready to play, his body is not.
"There is a good chance that if I took a hit on my shoulder like that then it would break again and shatter." Hill said. "I haven't been cleared to play yet, but I can do everything fine but take contact."
Kansas has gone 1-4 without its most experienced wide receiver. But Hill, who will be 23 when Kansas begins play next season, said he would have no problem being the old man around a young offensive arsenal featuring freshman quarterback Mario Kinsey and sophomore wide receiver Derick Mills.
"I think that the offense has struggled this year, but I think that next year we will have a great opportunity with our schedule to win games," Hill said. "I think that we will come back with a lot of promise next season. We definitely have a lot of guys who can make plays."
Linebacker Willie Pless, 1982-85, holds the Kansas career tackles record with 633. Quarterback Nolan Cromwell, 1973-76, starred at safety before moving under center and was also an All-American in the 400-yard run in track. Fullback

Match: Team wants home win
CONTINUED FROM 1B
Nebraska had 20 more kills,19 more digs and seven more blocks than Kansas.
Coach Ray Bechard said Kansas State's two losses were no reason to think the Wildcats would be an easy target.
"I'm sure they're going to try to get healthy real quick with us," Bechard said. "I'd rather that they had won their last three and were feeling a little bit good about themselves. I'm sure they're going to be ready to get there act back on track."
Sophomore outside hitter Abbie Jacobson will play in her first home match in eight total matches after returning to the rotation on the road last weekend. Jacobson missed six
matches with a dislocated shoulder.
"We're really excited about playing K-State at home," she said. "We went down to Manhattan this year and didn't have a really great match. We feel like we can play with them, so I think it'll be really exciting."
Bechard said Jacobson was not 100 percent, but would be soon.
"You take three weeks out and then come back, it's going to take a little time," Bechard said "But, she's extremely emotional, enthusiastic and intense."
Although the 'Hawks haven't beaten the Wildcats in seven years, the teams are tied in the series 32-32. Bechard, in his
fourth year at Kansas, is looking for his first win against Kansas State, and one of his former Barton County Community College players, Suzie Wiemers. Wiemers, who was an assistant under Bechard at Barton, is in her first year as coach at Kansas State.
The Wildcats are fourthplace in the Big 12 Conference standings. Senior outside hitter Liz Wegner leads the Wildcats offensively, averaging 4.82 kills per game. Senior middle blocker Jayne Christian leads the Wildcats with 11 solo blocks this season.

Negotiations near end for NFL contract
The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — NFL owners are expected to ratify a three-year extension of the collective bargaining agreement with the players union today, although they now want the players to help pay for the fast-growing cost of additional security.
The terrorist attacks Sept. 11 forced the NFL to greatly increase security at all games, and commissioner Paul Tagliabue said yesterday that one of the several remaining unresolved issues with the CBA extension deals with paying for that security.
The NFL Management Council and the NFL Players Association agreed in June to the extension, which would assure the league of labor peace through the 2007 season. It would be the fourth extension of the original CBA reached in 1993, and it would give the NFL labor peace for 20 years since its last labor-related interruption, the 1987 strike.
The extension would push the salary cap through 2006 and would carry two years beyond the NFL's $17.6 billion television contract, giving the league additional clout in its next TV negotiations.
"There's a lot of support for it, subject to getting these anywhere between one and four remaining issues resolved," Tagliabue said last night, following day-long owners meetings. "Mostly, they're about where we are going to be in 2006, how we deal with the cap that year based on TV and the considerable added expenses the teams are going to have and the league is going to have in terms of security."
Tagliabue would not estimate the cost of additional security, but suggested it would be substantial, especially during the postseason. The owners will hear a detailed presentation today on Super Bowl security.
Under the proposed extension, players could receive an increase in salary to as high as 65.5 percent of designated gross revenues in 2005. Veteran players also would have a portion of their salaries paid out of a league-wide fund instead of counting against the salary cap.
One of the prime criticisms of the current agreement was it gives too little security for higher-paid veterans to hold on to their jobs.
Minimum salaries would increase to $225,000 for rookies, and will go up to $300,000, $375,000 and $450,000 in subsequent seasons. A $525,000 minimum would apply through six seasons, with players in their seventh through ninth years guaranteed $650,000. For ten years or more of service, the minimum would be $750,000.
the owners also talked about the NFL's TV contracts, which have four more seasons to run past this season. Tagliabue said there was no discussion of any givebacks to rights holders CBS, Fox, ABC and ESPN despite a downturn in TV advertising revenue since the terrorist attacks.

NEW YORK — Michael Jordan wasn't exactly No.23 of old and he missed his biggest shot of the night in his return to the NBA.

Looking more like a promising playmaker than one of the game's greats, Jordan spent the majority of his minutes at point guard in his regular-season debut for the Washington Wizards after a 31/2-year retirement.

Jordan had a chance to tie the game with a 3-pointer from in front of the Knicks' bench with 18 seconds left, but missed the shot — one of 14 misses in 21 attempts. He also had two turnovers late in the fourth, and an airball and a missed layup in the first quarter that diminished a final stat line that included five rebounds and four steals in 37 minutes.
The Knicks took an 87-86 lead into the final two minutes, and after Lattrell Sprewell hit a turnaround, Jordan answered with a 21-footer — his first field goal of the quarter — to cut New York's
The 38-year-old Jordan missed his next shot, also a jumper, and then failed to out jump Kurt Thomas, allowing him to grab an offensive rebound. That led to a pair of foul shots by Othella Harrington with 34 seconds left for a three-point lead.
Jordan threw an ill-advised pass that was stolen on Washington's next possession, but Christian Laettner stole the ball back. After Jordan missed the 3-point attempt, Thomas was fouled on the rebound and made both shots for a 93-88 lead that all but ended it.

The Sixers looked decidedly different than the team that won the Eastern Conference championship last season. Iverson, the reigning NBA MVP, is still nursing his right elbow. Eric Snow (broken thumb) and the NBA's Sixth Man of Year, Aaron McKie, recovering from shoulder surgery, also sat out. Tyrone Hill and George Lynch were both traded in the off-season.
Point guard Speedy Claxton, who missed his entire rookie season with a torn knee ligament, had 20 points. But with Allen Iverson — who averaged a league-best 31.1 points last year — wearing a red-and-black sweat shirt on the bench, the Sixers were left searching for scoring.

Notes: After a lengthy pregame ceremony honoring the victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, both teams took the court for a few layups and jumpers to get warmed up again. The game started 20 minutes late. Sixers coach Larry Brown said before the game that McKie might be ready to practice today, but didn't sound optimistic about Iverson's return. "He hasn't practiced, his arm still isn't even straight," Brown said. Smith, who bruised his lower back in Minnesota's final preseason game Friday, when he fell on a television microphone that was taped to his jersey, was 7-for-11 from the field.

Pierce leads way to Celtics win
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker couldn't believe the great seats they got on opening night.
Pierce scored 29 points and Walker 23— in just three quarters — as the Boston Celtics opened the season with an easy 108-89 win last night over Cleveland, spoiling John

"Opening night and no fourth quarter," Pierce recalled telling Walker. "It was an indication we did our job. We took off and never looked back. It's a great start to the season."
coaching debut with the Cavaliers.
As Pierce and Walker relaxed on Boston's bench in the fourth quarter, the duo enjoyed a rare early night.
Pierce and Walker accounted for 51 percent of Boston's scoring a year ago, and the Celtics hope they don't have to rely on the tandem to carry them again this season.
But against a Cleveland team lacking any inside presence or defense, Walker and Pierce did anything they wanted to offensively.
"We've got to play our game," said Walker, who went just 6-for-20 from the field but added eight rebounds and seven assists in 30 minutes. "We're going to ride our horses."
The pair combined for 37 first half points and 52 in three quarters as the Celtics opened a 92-59 lead after three and rested their two star players for the entire fourth period.
For Lucas, hired to bring some energy back to the Cavs, and 17,748 fans at Gund Arena, it was a look at what could be a very long year in Cleveland.
Lucas may not have center Zydrunas Iglauskas (foot) and forward Tyrone Hill (back) until December, and without any size up front, the Cavs will have trouble competing.

fourth quarter and didn't return.
"We don't have an inside game," Lucas said. "So when we don't make shots we have the capability of looking very bad."
Pierce's 3-pointer from the right side with 1:06 remaining in the third gave Boston a 90-57 lead, and rookie Joseph Forte hit two free throws as the Celtics went up by 35.
"We doubled Pierce and he still made his shots," Cavs center Chris Mihm said. "When he made four in a row, then we got real timid. They started hitting everything."
Notes:
The 7:15 p.m. start was the NBA's earliest on opening night, and Walker scored the season's first points with two free throws just 33 seconds in.
The Celtics are 36-20 in season openers.

Hill, McGrady find magic throttle Toronto 114-85
The Associated Press
ORLANDO. Fla. — For more than a year, the Orlando Magic wondered what it would be like when Tracy McGrady and Grant Hill worked in sync. They finally got their answer.

Darrell Armstrong added 16 for Orlando, which posted its largest margin of victory in a season debut.
Toronto was led by Chris Childs' 13 points. Keon Clark had '11 points and nine rebounds.
The Raptors almost lost more than the game, as All-Star guard Vince Carter hurt his left knee late in the second quarter. However, Carter briefly returned in the second half before sitting down when the deficit reached 21 points.

"He's going to be fine,"
Toronto coach Lenny Wilkens said.
But Hill's surgically repaired left ankle gave out after only four games, and the dream was deferred until this season. Even then, an injury-riddled preseason kept Orlando from unleashing its potential.
The Magic had high hopes before last season when they signed McGrady and Hill to seven-year, $93-million contracts.
Hill and Armstrong each had five points during a 13-1 run as the Magic took a 74-51 lead midway through the quarter. The Raptors never got closer than 20 points the rest of the way.
That potential was realized in the third quarter, as Orlando outscored Toronto 31-15 en route to a 24-point lead. Along with Hill's 11 points and three assists, McGrady added nine points.
Orlando shot 12-for-17 (71 percent) in the period while Toronto missed 10 of 13 shots and committed eight turnovers.
What really impressed Orlando coach Doc Rivers was the way his superstars made Carter work on both ends of the floor when he returned to the game.

Oklahoma's Stoops says White will play again
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops didn't wait for the question about injured quarterback Jason White. Instead, he went on the offensive at his weekly news conference.
Stoops said Sunday and again Monday that Which ite sprained his left knee in
Q
Saturday's loss to Nebraska and could play next week against Texas A&M. But a newspaper report Monday said White tore his anterior cruciate ligament and his status for the rest of the season was in doubt.
"It continues to be a sprained knee, and let me clarify that because there's been a lot of people call me and take issue with my comments." Stoops said.
always understand since I've been here, I have never said anything that is not true to the media or to the public," he said. "A sprain, whether it be to an ankle, a shoulder, a knee, is damage to a ligament. That is what a sprain is.
"I guess I didn't realize I needed to define what a sprain is, but he has a sprained knee and that's the situation."
Stoops said he didn't get specific when he talks about injuries, because he didn't want to put his players at a disadvantage against the opposition.
White worked out lightly Monday night but did not wear pads.
"From watching Jason throw the ball last night and walk around rehab, I believe he's got a chance to play next week." Stoops said. "He won't play this week, but he has a chance to play next week and continue through the season. If that is
not the case. I'll say so."
If White is able to return, he would get the starting job back, Stoops said. Meanwhile the job belongs to Nate Hybl, who started the first six games for the third-ranked Sooners (7-1, 4-1 Big 12). Hybl hurt his non-throwing shoulder in the fifth game, against Texas, and was removed early in the next game, against Kansas, after four lackluster series.
He took over for White in the Nebraska game and Stoops said he played well, although he did have to leave for a few plays after getting knocked wooxy. He also took a shot to the head in the Kansas State game.
Stoops said he was concerned when players show effects from blows to the head, but that hasn't happened with Hybl.
"Our doctors would never allow him to compete in a game if he didn't check out properly and in the right way, and he has."
Third-year Baylor coach insists team is better than its record
The Associated Press
WACO, Texas — Baylor coach Kevin Steele can confide in only a few people these days.
BEARS
His wife,
Kansas State
coach Bill
Snyder and
former Nebraska coach
Tom Osborne
are among them. "Plus, they are about the only ones who will take my calls," said Steele, the third-year Bears coach who is 0-21 in Big 12 games.
These are tough times at Baylor (2-5, 0-5 Big 12), which hasn't won a league game since 1998. The Bears are only 3-42 in the Big 12 since it was formed five years ago.
Just when the Bears seemed to be making some progress, staying within striking distance late into consecutive games against No. 24 Texas A&M, No. 2 Nebraska and No. 3 Oklahoma, they lost 63-19 to Texas
Tech last weekend. Baylor trailed 28-0 before even getting a first down.
“There comes a time when it's time to put it over the hump, and we didn't do that,” Steele said. “We've simply got to get over the hump. Once we do that, it won't be a whole lot easier, but it will be a better understanding of what it takes.”
Things don't get any easier Saturday against No. 5 Texas (7-1,4-1), which outscored the Bears 110-14 the last two years.
Steele, an assistant coach for Osborne from 1989-94, has a Big 12 counterpart that understands his plight.
Before eight straight bowl appearances, a streak in jeopardy this year, Kansas State was 1-10 in 1989, Snyder's first season. The Wildcats had just one winning season the first four years before going 9-2-1 and making a bowl in 1993. They've had four straight 11-win seasons.
"I know it's difficult sometimes because you don't see the immediate results," Snyder said. "Our success didn't come on the scoreboard immediately, but you could see that progress was being made and felt confident that the right things would happen at a certain point."
Steele knew he faced a challenge when he took over the Bears after the 1998 season, becoming the third coach in four years.
What is even more difficult three years later is convincing people that progress is being made, especially when they see only the scores.
"Internally, we are really a tight-knit team. Every player believes in the program, coach Steele and his system," said receiver Reggie Newhouse, who was part of the coach's first Baylor recruiting class.
"A lot of people haven't seen it, but this program has come a long way since he came here, and it will only get better," he said.
Chiefs can't rely on reputation
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Cracks are beginning to appear in the unquestioning faith Kansas City fans placed in Dick Vermeil.
In his weekly radio show this week after the Chiefs fell to 1-6, one caller went so far as to accuse him of misleading them.
"I think most of you heard me say many times, two wins ago I was in a Super Bowl game." Vermeiel said yesterday at his weekly media luncheon.
"That doesn't guarantee anything."
When he was talked out of retirement last winter by Chiefs president Carl Peterson, Vermil's credentials could hardly have been more impeccable. He had built the Philadelphia Eagles into a Super Bowl team
CHIEFS
But Trent Green, the 31-year-old quarterback Vermel gave up a first-round draft pick for, has played poorly. The offensive and defensive lines, beset by injury, have not fared well. There have been problems in the secondary.
two decades ago and had coached St. Louis to the Super Bowl title in the 1999 season.
And Kansas City's wide receiver corps has been exposed as almost utterly lacking in the speed and talent Vermil enjoyed in St. Louis when Kurt Warner ran the same offense so well.
"There's a process you go through to get (to the Super Bowl)." Vermeil said. "Hope-
"If we're very fortunate and lucky and do a good enough job then you end up being successful," he said. "If not, you don't. And there have been some very fine people who were very skilled at what they were doing end up not being successful. One variable or another they were not able to control."
tully, we can repeat that kind of thing. But there aren't any guarantees. Everybody in this league is striving to do the same thing. We're in a high performance business. That's all there is to it."
In addition to talent and hard work, Vermeil said, other things beyond the control of any coach must also fall in line.
What has made fans most unhappy is the shoddy play of Green.
Illini to play tough games in November
CHAMPAIGN, III. — It's been a long time since games this late in the season mattered this much at No. 21 Illinois.
The Associated Press
The Illini, who had a bye last weekend, are tied for second in the Big Ten and have qualified for a bowl game for just the second time in seven years—and four games are still left to play in November.
INDIA
Kurt Kittner said on Monday. "We have a tough stretch these next four weeks and we need to be healthy."
With a rare Saturday off, most of the team gathered around the television to watch conference leader Michigan. A loss by the Wolverines would have given Illinois a share of the conference lead.
the conference Michigan was down early to Iowa, but came back from a 20-7 deficit, beat the Hawkeyes 32-26 and maintained sole possession of first
"It was a close game. I was hoping that Iowa would win, but Michigan is a good team and good teams usually pull those games out," defensive back Eugene Wilson said.
The bye for Illinois (6-1 overall, 3-1 Big Ten) came at a good time in the season — the midpoint of the conference schedule — and gave Illinois some additional time to prepare for its toughest stretch of the year.
The Illini travel to No. 20 Purdue this weekend, then face Penn State at home and Ohio State on the road before playing host to Northwestern on Thanksgiving Day in the regular season finale.
"We know we've got a tough road ahead. We've got the tough part of our schedule coming up," coach Ron Turner said. "We're playing some very good football teams, and I'm very, very impressed with Purdue."
the Boilermakers (5-1, 3-1) beat Northwestern 52-27 Saturday, rushing for 172 yards while quarterback Brandon Hance ran and passed for a touchdown. Hance has Purdue off to its best start since 1997.
The teams have two things in common: their lone losses have come against Michigan and each is coming off a close conference win.
Two weeks ago, Illinois blew a third-quarter lead against Wisconsin, allowing the Badgers to score three touchdowns in a span of 1-23, before staging a comeback of their own to win 42-55.
In that game, Kittner found receiver Brandon Lloyd in the corner of the end zone for the winning score in the fourth quarter. It was the fifth touchdown of the season for the sophomore wideout, who is second in the conference in receiving yards, averaging 101 per game.
Lloyd, who sat out last season with a broken leg, said the team would have preferred to skip the bye week following the emotional win over Wisconsin. However, he said the time off gave players with minor injuries the opportunity to rest before the final four games, which will be critical in determining where Illinois goes in the postseason.
"We wanted to play. We're really anxious about what we have going on this season," Lloyd said. "We like the momentum that we have, but I think the bye week was really good for us."

Release of Harry Potter movie creates excitement for all ages
The Associated Press
Howard Katz, a 75-year-old dentist in Manhattan, can't wait until mid-November. Neither can 11-year-old Anna Harris in Utah.
Years and miles apart, they share one thing: They're readers who are wild about Harry Potter. And they're eagerly awaiting the movie version of the boy wizard's first adventure.
"I want to go into the theater and see what they do with it. ... I want a ride," said Katz, who has refrained from re-reading book one of the Potter series in favor of letting the movie refresh his memory.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone premieres in London on Nov. 4 and hits theaters Nov. 16. Based on the first of author J.K. Rowling's best-selling series, the movie follows the adventures of Harry, an orphan boy who is invited to become a student at the Hogwarts School
The movie — directed by Chris Columbus and starring little-known Daniel Radcliffe as Harry
of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
- faces giant expectations not only among the book's fans but at the box office too.
Paul Dergarabedian, president of the box-office tracking company Exhibitor Relations in Los Angeles. said Sorcerer's Stone could break opening-day and opening-weekend records.
"It's just a dream come true for kids," said Dergarabedian, who has already seen the film and liked it. "It is one of the most anticipated films ever, and I think it will live up to that."
Because it is the first in a potential series, it's especially important to the filmmakers that the movie do well, Dergarabedian noted. And it is expected to usher in a strong end of the year for the industry, along with Monsters, Inc. and Lord of the Rings.
There was no word from
Warner Bros. on how many of the nation's 6,979 theaters would show Harry Potter; Mission: Impossible 2, which opened in May 2000 in 3,653 theaters, has the record.
In Logan, Utah, Anna and her 8-year-old brother, Ian, thought they had hit on the perfect way to see Sorcerer's Stone on opening day. After hearing that their uncles cut school to see Star Wars in 1977, they suggested to their mother that she take them out of school to see Harry.
"The matinee would be right when I have gym and lunch." Anna said, stressing that she wouldn't be missing any academic classes.
Mom wasn't swayed.
"We're not going to be skipping school for a movie," said Lynette Harris. But since she's a Harry fan, too, she admitted, "We probably will have someone in line" for tickets to an evening show that day.
