Chuck Norris to speak at Delta Force function
by Matt Merkel-Hess Kansan satire editor
Chuck Norris, star of Walker, Texas Ranger, and the action films Delta Force and Delta Force 2, will be the guest speaker at Delta Force's annual keger/get out the vote party tonight.
Delta Force, a campus political party,
was formed on Feb. 9, 1997, as a new

commitment to action and technique rather than violence, said Justin Mills, student body president and last year's Delta Force presidential candidate.
"Mr. Norris, through his roles in movies
such as The Hitman, Missing in Action, Missing in Action II and Missing in Action III, has always provided inspiration to our activist, left-of-center campus political party," Mills said. "Plus he kicked butt in Return of the Dragon with Bruce Lee."
"coalition for change" in Student Senate politics. The coalition was named for the two ass-kicking movies made by Norris in 1986 and 1990.
Not all members of the Delta Force Party were satisfied with the choice of Norris as speaker.
"Does his work on the Kick Drugs out of America charity mean he doesn't want
to cigarette pot?” said Anna Davis, Larned senior. “I’m not cool with that.”

"Although their win last year was unprecedented, their time has come," Norris said. "Just like in my movies, this Delta Force doesn't negotiate with the competition. It just blows them away."
Gore to seek KU Senate Presidency
By Brandon Gay
Kansan Satire Writer
Al Gore has failed in two bids to become the President of the United States, but his presidential aspirations have not ended.
Gore, the former Vice President and current house husband, has announced his intention to run for University of Kansas student body president.
Gore announced his decision Tuesday at Wescoe Beach.
"There is no office I would rather settle for than student body president," Gore told the crowd of four supporters and one guy who thought he was one of those spooky talking wax museum dummies. "I have a very deep love in my heart for KU. Go Blackhawks!"
Many political insiders speculated Gore might be cying the up-for-grabs Afghan presidency because of the beard he began to grow. Donna Brazille, Gore's 2000 campaign manager, has denied the claim.
"Al initially grew the beard pre-Sept. 11." Brazille said.
"The idea was to make him look more like Abe Lincoln. I'll tell you, only Al Gore could try to look like Abe Lincoln and end up looking like Osama bin Laden."
Gore said he should be elected student body president because he had invented many cool things college students like, such as the
PRESIDENT
Gore
Internet, Jello shots and the catch phrase "gettin' jiggy with it."
Gore also has put into motion plans to run for president of his neighborhood watch group and his local chapter of the Neil Diamond fan club.
He also is considering an offer to lead a Gore household taskforce against shower mildew.

Basketball brings bucks
Teams take home money when they advance in the NCAA tournament
tournament
By Jessica Tims Kansan staff writer
The Big 12 Conference's success in this year's NCAA men's basketball tournament will pay big dividends for conference schools for the next six years.
Big 12 teams earned $11.4 million in the NCAA tournament, which will be paid out to conference schools during the next six years. That is $6 million more than the conference made last year.
Susan Wachter, chief financial offi
cer for the University of Kansas Athletics Department, said the department expected to receive $880,000 this year.
The department will use the money to pay the University's tournament travel expenses and cover the additional cost of colubrine.
tional cost of scholarships for the University's 250 scholarship athletes after tuition is increased, said Richard Konzem, associate athletics director.
NCAA
The tournament money will be added to the departments budget by August, Wachter said.
The NCAA distributes revenue to its member schools according to a three-part formula. Part of that formula is the participation and advancement of the
school's conference in the NCAA men's basketball tournament.
Tim Allen, associate commissioner of the Big 12 Conference, said that a tournament bid and each advancement in the
tournament translated into money
for each coach and the conference
"Each team earns a unit for every round it plays in the tournament until the Final Four" Allen said. "The most a team can receive is five units."
Kansas and Oklahoma each earned five units for their
Final Four appearances, and the six conference teams in the tournament earned a total of 19 units.
Each unit brings about $100,000 per year for six years, Allen said, giving Big 12 schools a total of approximately
$1.9 million a year for six years.
Allen said the Big 12 school that earned a unit would receive all of the money it earned for the first year of payment.
"Because Kansas and Oklahoma earned five units they will each get about $500,000 of the 1.9 million," Allen said. "But Texas Tech, who only played in the first round will only get $100,000 of it."
Allen said all 12 schools evenly share the money from units earned during the next five years.
"Over a six-year period the conference has $6.8 million," he said. "So we subtract the $1.9 million from this year and the remaining $4.9 million will be divide evenly among the 12 schools."

In the 1970s and '80s, the winding basement of Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., was used as a bar, but stricter fire codes shut it down. Some of the rooms, such as this one, haven't been modified much since it was closed.
Underground tunnels mystify store owners
By Caroline Boyer
Kansan staff writer
Local merchants on Massachusetts Street have speculated for years about the use of underground tunnels beneath their buildings.
The more popular stories include that the tunnels were used to transport slaves through the Underground Railroad and that they were used to gain entrance to speakeasies, places where people could purchase alcohol during prohibition.
Steven Jansen, historian for the Watkins Historical Society, said there were tunnels running under Massachusetts Street from the river up to what is now Paradise Cafe. 728 Massachusetts St.
The tunnels were used to generate power using conveyor belts from the dam on the river, built in 1874. The river water made wheels in the dam rotate, spinning the conveyor belts. The belts ran through the tunnels to downtown businesses, providing power for machines.
Jansen said the tunnels were circular and about four to six feet in diameter. When it was converted to an electric dam in 1905, the tunnels stopped being used.
The parts of tunnels that remain were found over the years by owners of buildings on Massachusetts Street, leading to speculation about their uses. Janssen said people had asked him if they were used for the Underground Railroad.
Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., is one of the buildings with connections to the tunnels. The building was erected in 1911 over the foundations of previous build-
"The tunnels used to be continuous, but now because of construction, they just run in bits and spurs." Jansen said.

Binge drinking increases among college women says new study
By Leah Shaffer Kansan staff writer
The level of binge drinking on college campuses has remained static with one exception. When it comes to excessive drinking, the most recent study shows that women are catching up with men.
A study by the Harvard School of Public Health shows a 124-percent increase in the amount of binge drinking at the five all-women's colleges surveyed. The survey sampled nearly 17,600 students at 140 four-year colleges and universities. The study compared the data from 1993 through 2001, and defined binge drinking as "four or more drinks in a row, three or more times in the past two weeks."
James Grobe, assistant professor of psychology at the University of Kansas, said this increase in excessive drinking was part of a general trend in American culture. Grobe said disorders and bad habits, such as smoking and drinking, typically dominated by men were now demonstrated more and more by women.
"As cultural

social environment is putting pressure on women to behave in ways that men behave," he said.
Sara Behunek, Fort Collins, Colo., sophomore, said during her freshman year she worked up her tolerance to the point where she could drink 15 beers in one night.
"I know some girls that can out-drink guys," Behnek said.
The Harvard study found that 50 percent of men on campuses binge drink while 39 percent of women could be classified as binge drinkers.
At the University, according to the 2001 Campus Alcohol Survey, 43 percent of KU women reported having five or more drinks the last time theypartied while for men, the number was 67 percent. The survey was administered by

Funeral honors three Ft. Riley soldiers killed in training exercise in California
The Associated Press
FORT RILEY — With a 21-gun salute and the mournful notes of a bugler, tribute was paid yesterday to three Fort Riley soldiers killed during a training accident in California.
About 300 people, mainly soldiers in uniform, gathered at a post chapel for the 20-minute service for Sgt. Clifton J. Decklar, 22, of Shelton, Wash.; Spec. Bobby L. Newton, 27, of New Orleans, and Pfc. Oscar Perez-Jimenez, 19, of West Covina, Calif. No immediate family of the victims attended.
The soldiers were killed when a 120 mm mortar round fired from an armored vehicle exploded during a training exercise last Friday at the National Training Center at Fort Irwin, Calif.
"All knew them as great warriors who made the ultimate sacrifice," said Lt. Col. George Brinegar, commander of their unit, the 2nd Battalion, 34th Armor.
"These three men were brave soldiers...no greater compliment can be paid," he added.
Brinegar said the loss was felt by all, and remembrance of them "should be a testimony to what our brotherhood means."
He said the men "were not
fighting for themselves but for others, their friends on the other side of the battlefield."
At the front of the sanctuary was a display of three rifles with bayonets stuck upside down, as if driven into the ground. Atop each rifle was a helmet; a pair of dogtags dangled from each.
Three pairs of polished black boots and a photograph of each victim were in front of the rifles.

CORRECTIONS
A column in yesterday's Kansan incorrectly stated the amount of money Student Senate allocated for this year's Pride Week. The column stated the amount was $10,000. Actually, Senate allocated $7,400. The column also incorrectly stated Dred, a comedian, would be coming to campus for Pride Week activities. He will not perform on campus. The column also stated that Pride Week had already taken place. Pride Week is April 8 to 13.
Because of a copy editor error, Kansas track and field head coach Stanley Redwine was incorrectly identified as sophomore Crystal Redwine in Thursday's Kansan.
Because of a copy editor error, a story in yesterday's Kansan incorrectly stated that sludge dumped down the main drain of the University Garage had been tested and was not toxic. Doug Riat, director of Facilities Operations said the sludge was not toxic, however, it has not yet been tested. Also, the story reported the Kansas River was named dirtiest river in the United States. Actually it was named fourth dirtiest by the American Rivers organization.
A story in Monday's Kansan stated officers tried to stop cars from driving through campus, but gave up because of the steady stream of traffic. In fact, officers did not give up but took down the barriers because of a lack of traffic. The story also stated about 15 officers with helmets and shields gathered in front of Wescoe Hall. There were actually only three to five.

violations reported in Student Senate race
Five Student Senate campaign violations were reported this week.
Elections Commissioner David Mitchell said four of the violations involved posters hanging on bulletin boards in classrooms and on departmental bulletin boards.
"The only bulletin boards you can freely put signs up on are unrestricted bulletin boards," Mitchell said.
The fifth violation concerned a candidate who did not attend a mandatory candidate workshop.
The Elections Commission will meet on Wednesday, April 16, to hear the complaints.
A log of the campaign violations is available online at http://www.ku.edu/~election.

Grades could just be a matter of Z's
By Summer Lewis Kansan staff writer
Improving your grades might be a simple matter of getting more sleep.
Many students don't get enough sleep, and don't realize the toll it takes on their body and mental ability.
"If a student is finding it next to impossible to get As, but is getting solid Bs, the student should try to get more sleep," said Michael Garrison, supervisor of the sleep disorder center at KU Medical Center. "Sleep can actually help with concentration."
He said that there was not a real set amount of sleep that is recommended.
we recommend an average of eight hours, but it varies with different people." Garrison said. "Some people may be fine with six hours, while others may require 10 or more. Each person has their own sleep pattern."
He said the body needed food and sleep to maintain healthy
energy levels.
"Our body needs sleep to restore itself," Garrison said. "When you cut sleep out, your body just craves it more."
"Sleep affects concentration and reaction time," Garrison said. "A lack of sleep can put you in danger while driving a car, impairs in students' learning ability and mental functioning."
He said that too much sleep could also cause people to be groggy.
"If a student usually gets up at eight during the week and decides to sleep in until 11, the body is thrown out of its normal cycle," Garrison said. "You have created your own jet lag because you deviated from your normal clock."
Katie Curtis, Wichita junior, said she slept only four hours a night because she always head things to do.
"I sleep anytime that I get the chance during the day, which
isn't often," Curtis said.
Erin Blosser, Blue Springs. Mo,
senior, said she got plenty of sleep
regardless of how busy she was.
"I think sleep is very important for health purposes," Blosser said.
She said getting a little extra work done wasn't worth being tired all day.
"This makes me feel sleep deprived and have less energy," she said.
Cameron Koelling, Bedford Texas, junior, said she didn't sleep much because she studied most of the time.
"I think it's impossible to get a normal amount of sleep in college and still get everything accomplished." Koelling said.

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES SPEAK OUT
Longetivity of Delta Force conducive to its success
Did you enjoy having a fall break last semester? Have you ever used the new city-wide bus system? Do you have a child in the new Hilltop child-care facility? Have you ever checked your e-mail on campus at one of the NEST terminals? Have you ever voted in the Student Senate elections at the Daisy Hill voting site?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you have experienced the results of Delta Force's hard work. This is our sixth year on campus, and we are going strong. We are not afraid to tackle big issues because we know that we will be around to follow through with them, even if they take many years to accomplish. We were told that getting a fall break would be impossible, but people worked on it for four years and this past October the entire campus got to enjoy the fruits of that labor.
Delta Force has always been about empowering students to affect positive change on our campus and in our community. One of our overriding issues this year is improving the accessibility of information to students and increasing student power in the decision-making process. This year we learned all too well the difference between student input and student power when the tuition increase came to the table. Now it looks like students are going to be hit by an enormous increase in tuition over the next few years.
One way to increase student power in decision making is to get a student vote on the Board of Regents. The board is going to be the one to approve the tuition increase, and it also helps control such issues as the alcohol policy and the University's anti-discrimination policies. Another thing that we would be able to use this student vote to help pass is a domestic partnership policy - a very basic measure to get equal rights for homosexual and heterosexual couples. This policy is just one of our efforts to help support the diversity of this campus.
COMMENTARY
We also need to increase communication and accountability for minority recruitment and retention, which will be a long-term process. We cannot limit our definition of diversity to only include ethnicity and sexual orientation, however. Part of our opposition to the huge tuition increases is that they will price students out of an education and reduce the socioeconomic diversity of our campus.
C. M. SILVERBERG
Another socioeconomic issue that we are addressing is getting fair wages for all KU employees. We believe that people should be fairly compensated for their work. Paying students low wages
Karen Keith opinion@kansan.com
because they are students is a concept based on a middle-class standard of parental support that is unfair to student employees whose parents are not still supporting them.
Following our tradition of environmental
responsibility, we are continuing our fight to increase recycling on campus and to change policy to increase the use of recycled goods on campus in order to complete the loop.
Relevance. That's what KUnited will return to Student Senate. More specifically, relevance in issues that affect your everyday life as students at KU. That's exactly what you should be looking for in this year's Student Senate elections, and that's why you should take the extra five minutes to vote for KUnited next Wednesday and Thursday.
KUnited wants to bring relevance back to Senate
STUDENT SENATE elections 2002
Finally, we want to improve the alcohol policy, with the first step being the return of beer to the Jaybowl. Students are going to drink regardless of University policies. What safer place for students to do so than our student union, the hub of our public transportation system?
KUnited puts action behind words. With 17 returning student senators — the most out of any coalition — we have worked hard to create a list of goals, clearly laid out with a detailed plan of action for each of our issues. This ensures we will be prepared to continue working on our issues even after the election.
That's the difference. We don't just talk about lofty ideas or use abstract terms that are confusing to students. Instead, we are showing the student body how

Now that you know what we're all about, I encourage you to stop by the tables of all of the different coalitions and find out more about each one. When April 10 and 11 roll around, get out and vote. Last year there was only a 39-vote margin of victory for the presidential candidates, so your vote really does matter. And remember, long-term change requires long-term commitment.

munity service events, intramural and test times and faculty evaluations will be available.
Part of our platform includes creating a centralized Web site providing students with a resource to find out about all campus activities throughout the entire year. Consider this like an online KU Info. The site will have descriptions of each student organization, meeting times for an entire semester and contact information. Moreover, scholarship information, com-
As KU becomes more integrated through the Internet for processes such as enrollment, it will be helpful to have other user-friendly and relevant online resources for other aspects of campus life.
Speaking of relevance, let's stop "talking" about minority recruitment and retention, and let's start doing something about it by pushing for a new Multicultural Resource Center. We need a new MRC to replace the current one, which is located in an inadequate and temporary facility. A new MRC will

strengthen our campus atmosphere not just for minority students, but for all students so we will all be prepared to enter into the increasingly diverse workplace after we graduate. Tomorrow, KUnited will sponsor an MRC Rally in the front of the MRC from 3 to 5 p.m.
Another relevant aspect of our lives as KU students is parking. KUnited will work to get all lots opened to students at 5 p.m. Most parking lots restricted until 7:30 p.m. are empty after 5 p.m. These are lots students should be using for their evening meetings and events on campus.
We also want to improve safety on campus through increased emergency blue phones, especially around Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall and Daisy Hill. We will also work to implement a community bike program and easy-to-read parking maps.
Finally, KUnited strongly believes current students should not be priced out of their education. An increase in tuition should be dispersed among all students, so we can still attract more students to our University; however, current students should not have to pay as much as incoming students.
Many benefits from a tuition increase, such as stronger research and improvements to facilities, will not help juniors and seniors as much as it would incoming freshmen since it takes more time to see the outcome of those benefits. KUnited will work to ensure your money is being spent on increasing financial aid, increasing GTA salaries, improving classroom facilities and technology, among many other issues. In addition, KUnited will work to hold the University accountable for showing where our tuition dollars are being spent and how it has benefited us.
Elections are less than a week away. Stop by our table, pick up our flier and meet our candidates. KUnited will continue to work for you, building one campus, one community, one KU. See the difference. Vote KUnited.

LETTERSTO THE EDITOR
ROACHES IN THE TOWERS
Dear editor.
This is in response to the "Student Surveys roach problem" (April 2). I lived in Tower A during my first year at KU. During my stay at the Towers, my apartment, shared with an international student, was clean. I was very saddened and angered to read that some think that I, because I am from another country, do not regard cleanliness to a high degree in my life.
At the time, Towers C and D were the filthiest to me and had the highest occurrences of roaches. The roach problem has always been as issue at the Towers, with or without international students.
Seth Fishman, complex director for the Towers said, "I think in A Tower, with the international students, they just aren't as clean. They have different standards of cleanliness." It may be true that people in different countries have different standards of cleanliness. However, Fishman's statement implies that international students are dirty and that we may be the cause of the roach problems.
Living in this country has taught me a lot about the filth within this society. While some Americans—like any other group of people—may be clean and tidy, there is no doubt that some of the most filthy living creatures can be found in this society.
Mr. Fishman, before generalizing and exposing your deep knowledge and insight of international students, I suggest you start by checking out your own environment.
I would expect a lot more professionalism coming from a good institution such as the University of Kansas. I can now see how some students at the University may feel this is a hostile environment if the attitudes and mindsets are filled with misconstrained ideas starting with the staff on down.
Generalizations are the root to stereotypes and prejudices and I am appalled that you have expounded stereotypes towards non-Americans, especially when a lot of the students you work with could be international students. I'm sure they appreciate your honest opinion about what you truly think of them.
I can assure you that most of the international students on this campus have little or no tolerance for roaches. Roaches are filly and unsanitary and to even imply that I as an international student would not mind roaches in my apartment angers me. International students have enough negative stereotypes as it is, we do not need anymore tacked on to us.

Landing during both games and walked away with enough money to cover my rent and bills for the month. Business was certainly booming in Lawrence during March. But does anyone ever thank the team that enables them to see another season? Probably not. So here it goes.
THANK YOU JAYHAWKS
Dearestor
I am not a basketball fan. I don't pretend to know the difference between an air-ball and a brick, and am usually more interested in checking out Roy's tie than the player's collective running game. But Saturday's game was different. Saturday's game put a roof over my head, Ramen in my tummy, and even a little beer in my cup.
Thank you, Jayhawks, for waking before even the rooster every day and practicing until your souls ached. While most of us were still in bed, you were sweating, bleeding, screaming, playing. Each of you is an inspiration; never forget that.
Dear editor,
I worked at Abe and Jake's
Thank you, Jayhawks, for the formidable spirit which you have so gracefully afforded our campus, our city, and our state. You have truly captivated a nation in your battle against that merciless basket and proven yourselves heroes at a time when our country so desperately needs them. Even as the game ended, strangers embraced, but not in hopelessness. We think you're the absolute best, and always will.
And thank you, Jayhawks, for my education. Without your stellar performances year after year I could not afford my education here at the University of Kansas. As it turned out, every threepointer was $10 in my pocket — $10 dollars closer to my degree and my dreams. So I'm thanking you, presently, for my future Because of your relentless dedication, unflagging motivation and tremendous unity, I am, and always will be, a Jayhawk.

Creek not affected by sludge
By Lauren Beatty Kansan staff writer
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment told University of Kansas officials that sludge, a gooey industrial waste byproduct, found near West Campus Creek outside the University Vehicle Maintenance Garage, 3005 W. 15th St., did not have any environmental effect on the area where it was found.
Lynn Bretz, director of University Relations, released the information yesterday after a meeting with the health department.
Facilities Operations and the KU Department of Environment, Health and Safety.
The sludge was contained in an oil drum and sent to Topeka for testing to make sure it was not toxic. Doug Riat, director of Facilities Operations, said results of the testing were due early next week.
Tom Bryce, the University mechanic who made complaints about the sludge, said he was worried it could be toxic if it was petroleum distillate, and the testing would determine the level of toxicity.
Riat said the sludge was collected in a strainer in the oil separator in the main drain of the garage. The drain is 6 by 10 by 14 inches. Riat said the container was relatively small and was used to catch all the solids, such as sand, dirt and debris that pass through the drain. The strainer was dumped outside yesterday as part of the routine cleaning of the drain.
Riat said he was concerned that some of the sludge may have fallen outside the building.

TUNNELS
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
ings. Tim Griffith, Liberty Hall manager, said he had heard that the tunnels in the basement were used during the Underground Railroad.
"There are rumors that they were used to take slaves down to the river," Griffith said. "We searched diligently. We even crawled in little crawl spaces you wouldn't want to go in, and we couldn't find anything."
The Underground Railroad operated in Kansas from 1854 to 1861. A system of hiding places in barns and houses were used to move slaves from the South to freedom in the North.
Jansen said that Lawrence, which was founded in 1854, was not a large enough town at the time to build a system of tunnels for the Railroad. He said tunnels were often built to transfer slaves in the East, but there was no history of building tunnels in Kansas.
"People take the name Underground Railroad" a little too literally." Jansen said.
A more recent rumor is that
the tunnels and other secret rooms under Massachusetts Street buildings were used during prohibition. David Millstein, owner of Liberty Hall, said he'd also heard speculation that some of the tunnels and rooms in Liberty Hall's basement were used as speakeasies.
"When we bought the building in 1985 we looked for evidence to support it, but we haven't found anything," Millstein said.
Jansen said prohibition began in Kansas in 1880, 30 years before it affected the entire country. So, Kansas had a longer history.
He said the rumor could be supported because Lawrence followed prohibition laws more strictly than other cities in Kansas, so there was a larger need to obtain alcohol secretly.
Jansen said there was a warehouse in Lawrence where alcohol was illegally sold during prohibition.
However, Jansen said he had never seen documented stories about speakeasies.

BINGE
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
the Social Norms Media Campaign to 1,608 students.
Kelly Mosher, assistant coordinator of the campaign, said the KU survey was not meant to determine if students binge drink, and could not be compared to the Harvard survey because of differing questions.
Bill Smith, interim director of health education at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that many factors affected how fast a person became intoxicated. He said women would feel the effects of alcohol more strongly than men because women generally had a higher ratio of body fat to water.
Alcohol is not absorbed into the body fat, so when it is absorbed into the bloodstream, it is less diluted.
Smith said that no matter the gender, excessive drinking could lead to alcohol poisoning.
The KU survey showed that 90 percent of the women responding said they only drank in environments in which they knew they would be safe. It also showed that 71 percent said they had one or fewer drinks per hour the last time they partied.

Fresno St. names Sooner assistant as men's coach
The Associated Press
FRESNO, Calif. — Oklahoma assistant Ray Lopes replaced Jerry Tankarian as Fresno State's basketball coach Wednesday, agreeing to a five-year contract.
"Jerry Tarkanian is an unbelievable coach," Lopes said. "It's an honor for me to step in his shoes. He's laid a foundation of success. It's my job to build upon that foundation."
The Bulldogs failed to make the NCAA tournament amid a series of suspensions and injuries this season, and fan discontent surfaced as the team struggled to a 19-15 record and an NIT berth.
Lopes, who spent the past eight years at Oklahoma, will direct the team when it moves into the new 16,500-seat Save Mart Center in late 2003 — an arena that became reality in large part because of Tarkanian's presence.
"Jerry Tarkanian is an unbelievable coach."
Ray Lopes Oklahoma coach
Lopes will be paid a salary of $112,000 per year, according to Fresno athletic director Scott Johnson.
Lopes, 39, worked with Sooners coach Kelvin Sampson for one season at Washington State before moving to Oklahoma. Before that, Lopes, who played for Albertson College in Idaho, coached four years at California-Santa Barbara.
He won an NCAA title with UNLV in 1990 and is the fourth winningest coach in the NCAA, finishing with a 778-202 record.
Tarkanian, 71, retired from Fresno State last month after four decades of coaching.

ter — but with more versatility.
Baxter was a beast and knew how to use his mammoth body to shield off defenders. He was smart and had fantastic feet. Collison adds a dimension Baxter lacked — he runs the floor like a guard. The 6-10, three-year starter has deadly post moves with both hands. In Kansas' nine-point loss to Maryland, Nick emerged from Gooden's shadow and dominated Baxter, of all people, for 21 points and 10 boards. He played like an All-American. Next season, he's a lock to be one of the best seniors in the game.
Wayne Simien will be Chris Wilcox — with more polish.
One of Wilcox's weaknesses was that outside of unbridled athleticism, his pure basketball game was raw, almost average. Simien never had this problem. He came in early and proved his post game was as precocious as his keen basketball IQ. He played with an anger you cannot teach and with a body sported by many NBA power forwards. The scary thing about Simien is that he has an entire off-season to work on his agility, condition and strength. In two years, his name will be mentioned in the same breath as Gooden's.
And about Drew. He's not coming back. You can stop dreaming. But with two senior stars and a limitless sophomore, Kansas fans can start fixating on a new dream.

Baseball team to take on Texas
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
When the Kansas baseball team travels to Austin, Texas to play No.11 Texas this weekend in a three-game set, it expects to see more than just the team rooting against them. This season, Texas baseball has drawn more than 3,500 fans a game, one of the best in the Big 12.
"You know you're on the road," coach Bobby Randall said with a chuckle. "They really make it clear."
Like the other three Texas schools in the Big 12 Conference, the Longhorns fans are festive, and at the same time, mean. Randall said the Baylor fans were constantly heckling the Jayhawks, and the Longhorn fans may be even worse.
"They get copies of the media guide," Randall said, "and find out every little thing about us."
To go with the 12-row crowd,
the Jayhawks (12-1 overall, 1-8
Big 12 Conference play) will have to face a tough Longhorn squad. They come in with a 26-8 overall record, and a 5-4 mark in the Big 12.
"I think the key is getting off to a good start right away," senior third baseman Ryan Klocksien said. "Winning that first game, and getting that positive attitude we had during the first 10 games."
The Jayhawks have lost five straight to Texas, their last win coming on March 10,2000. Since the Big 12 was formed in 1996, Texas has won 14 of 18 meetings between the schools.
"There's probably not anybody we'd rather beat then them." Randall said.
Kansas will go to its three seniors, Dan Olson, Jeff Davis and Jake Wright, to start on the mound for the series. Combined, the three are 8-5 with a 4.10 ERA. They have started 20 of the team's 25 games.
"I feel good with Jeff, Jake and Dan," Randall said. "I think we're

going to have to pitch better out of the bullpen."
After beating Texas A&M on March 8, Kansas has lost eight straight conference games. The road won't get any easier, either. The next 12 games includes matchups with Texas Tech, Missouri. No. 12 Nebraska and two non-conference games against No. 8 Wichita State.
"We're coming up on the last half of the season," Randall said. "We need to step up and finish strong."

Women's golf ready for Indiana tournament
It has been nearly a month since members of the Kansas women's golf team competed in a tournament, but they hope the momentum they took into spring break will carry over to this weekend's Indiana Invitational in Bloomington, Ind.
SPORTS IN BRIEF
"Spring break was very productive and we played great golf," coach Nicole Hollingsworth said. "Any time you can come in the top 10 in college golf, that's a great thing."
In the team's last competition, it placed seventh in the Waterwood National Invitational March 11-12 in Huntsville, Texas
Junior Heather Rose finished first overall in individual competition.

stanford's leading scorer may go pro
STANFORD, Calif. — Casey Jacobsen, Stanford's leading scorer in each of his three seasons, will enter the NBA draft.
Jacobsen, who led the Pac-10 in scoring last season with a 21.9 average, won't hire an agent to leave open the possibility of returning for his senior season, the school said Wednesday.
Jacobsen is third on the school's career scoring list with
Last season, he led the Cardinal to a 20-10 record and the second round of the NCAA tournament.
1. 723 points.
When Jacobsen was a sophomore in 2000-01, Stanford won its third straight Pac-10 title and made the regional finals of the NCAA tournament.
Stanford junior center Curtis Borchardt also is likely to enter the draft.
Last year, Jason Collins became the first player in Stanford history to leave school early. Collins had spent four years at Stanford, but injuries left him with two years of eligibility.

Tennis team reaps benefits of friendship
By Jonah Ballow Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas tennis team has worked to improve on its 11-11 record last season by changing the atmosphere and establishing friendships between players and coaches. The enhanced team chemistry has paid off for the Jayhawks (12-3 overall, 6-0 Big 12 Conference) in the form of a nine-game winning streak.
streak.
"This year we want it more. We are on new ground because of all of the talent on this team," sophomore Kristen Steinbock said.
Coach Kilmency Waterman is in her second year after being an assistant coach for Kansas from 1992-95. Waterman has helped propel the Jayhawks to the second-best record in the Big 12, behind perennial power Texas.
"We go out on the court, and I think we can beat any team."
Paige Brown freshmen
"Coach has brought a lot to the team. She is a lot more laid back then our previous coach," junior Kim Lorenz said. "She is so easy to talk to and is always there for us."

fence to get the win. Freshmen have boosted the Kansas lineup and added diversity and confidence to the team.
Aurelie Bejar, a 5-foot-9 freshman from Clemont-Ferrand, France, did not join the team until January. Bejar, who has a 12-1 record at No. 5 singles, has found a home in Lawrence, with her teammates and coaches helping her learn the American culture and the English language.
"I love the ambition of the team, and the coaches are all very nice," Bejar said. "I never imagined we would be doing so well. It's great."
Freshman Paige Brown had a blistering start to the season, winning her first eight matches at No.4 singles. Brown is a spark plug for the Jayhawks, with her confidence and upbeat personality.
her command and applaud. "It would be phenomenal to go undefeated at home," Brown said. "We go out on the court, and I think we can beat any team."
After a rough start to the season, twins Courtney and Kristen Steinbock have bounced back to win six straight matches at No.1 doubles. Courtney was recently named Big 12 Player of the Week for her play at No.3 singles. The sophomore is currently on a nine-match winning streak in singles.
a nine-match winning streak. "Early in the season, I had the worst attitude, and I didn't want to play because of injuries," Kristen Steinbock said. "We started playing more as a team than sisters."
The coaches and the players have developed a philosophy that has produced lasting friendships and victories.
"We are all pretty close friends, and we all work together," Lorenz said. "Everyone is starting to believe."
Kansas defeated Kansas State 4-3 on Wednesday. It faces Missouri at noon Saturday and Iowa at 11 a.m. Sunday at the tennis courts outside of Robinson Center.

Softball pitcher primed
Serena Settlemier's confident pitching leads team to win
By Ali Brox
Kansan sportswriter
The story the last two days has been Serena Settlemier. The freshman pitcher for the Kansas softball team threw a one-hitter yesterday in the Jayhawks' second-game 2-0 victory against Creighton. Kansas won the first game 6-1 and improved to 22-15 on the season.
Settlemier's good pitching was an extension of her four hitless innings on Wednesday. Settlemier has surrendered just one hit, no walks and had 10 strikeouts in her last 11 innings.
"I'm very, very pleased with how Serena Settlemier has been throwing the ball for us recently," coach Tracy Bunge said. "It's really nice to have a freshman gain confidence every time she steps out on the mound. She's figuring things out. That's a real boost because it gives us the necessary depth that we need heading into a long stretch here the last month of the season."
The Jayhawks started early yesterday in game one, scoring two runs on four hits in the first inning. Senior centerfielder Shelly Musser got the Jayhawks started with a lead-off double to centerfield.
But Settlemier admitted she owed a lot of her good fortune to the play of her teammates.
"When I do make a mistake and throw a ball down the middle and it gets hit our defensive is doing awesome behind me," Settlemier said. "And that helps a pitcher out. They're helping me get the shutout and the onehitter."
13
"That's big for us to get Shelly on track," Bunge said. "She is the catalyst that kind of stirs things for us, and when she's on we're a much better team."
Creighton threatened in the top of the second, but a sliding catch by senior left fielder Christi Musser stranded runners on first and third and ended the Bluejays' hopes.
Creighton did get on the board in the fifth inning when freshman outfielder Katie Ayers doubled to center and advanced to third on a bobbled bunt by sophomore catcher Dani May. A hit to left by sophomore outfielder Stacey Rybar scored Ayers.
scores by Age.
The Jayhawks answered with three runs of their own in the fifth, and Shelly Musser added a solo shot to right in the sixth inning for the 6-1 final score.
In game two, the Jayhawks managed just one run, scoring in the bottom of the second. After a飞 out by senior third baseman Megan Urquhart, senior catcher Leah Tabb struck out but was safe at first as the third strike got past Creighton's catcher. Tabb advanced to second on a fielder's choice. With two outs, sophomore outfielder Mel Wallach hit one to right, scoring Tabb. Wallach was caught at second after the throw at home, but the single run was all Kansas needed.
Serena Settlemier pitches against Creighton yesterday afternoon at Jay hawk Stadium. The 'Hawks won 2-0 at jayhawk Stadium.

Defensively, the Jayhawks committed no errors in the second game and backed up Settlemier effectively in the field.
in the hect. "I think when our defense is like it's been, then our hitting takes care of itself." Settlemier said.
The Jayhawks head to Texas A&M this weekend for two games with the Aggies. Kansas starts play tomorrow at 2 p.m. and faces off again Sunday at noon. The three victories this week, and the improved play, especially
offensively, for the Jayhawks translates into increased confidence for the Kansas squad.
"I think it builds most of our team's confidence," Settlemier said. "Our hitting's back and if we have our
pitching staff doing what I did today we should be back in there."

Empathize.
Empatiize. Put yourself in a pair of Drew Gooden's size 17s.
You were picked first team All-American. You topped the best conference in college ball in points and rebounds. You came back for a third season to win. Thirty-three W's later, your season ends in the Final Four, a goal most athletes attain only in their dreams.
COMMENTARY
Now it comes time to make a decision. The NBA or a National Championship? Lottery pick or late-morning classes? Millions of dollars or more memories?
Jeff Denton
jdenton@kansan.com
Now stop. Think. And decide.
You enter the Draft.
Drew Gooden could come back and tweak his game. Yet he already has scouts salvating. And vindication for his sour and soft 15-point game against Maryland has far less value than the overpowering dollar sign. Even without Gooden manning the post next season, the state of
Kansas basketball will never be healthier.
Talent carries a team through the season. Luck helps it slide through the NCAA tournament. But leadership wins you a championship. Maryland embodied that this season
Maryland triumphed with pluck power and potential.
power and potential
Senior guard Juan Dixon splashed jumpers, angled floaters and played cutthroat defense for 40 minutes.
Despite playing on legs the size of straws and with a frail fame, he amazed college basketball fans
because he had no fear. Of the 160some odd pounds that Dixon carries on his body, about half of that comes from his heart.
When Indiana guard Dane Fife stonewalled Dixon in the first half of Monday night's Championship Game, senior center Lonny Baxter elevated his own game. Always aggressive and skillful with his big paws active around the basket, the 6-foot-8, 260-pounder went for 15 points and 14 rebounds. A blue-collar double-double. That's what made Baxter good for three years. It brought him prestige when he was a senior.

trestanker in college.
His arms are long and sculpted, his
legs lithic and graceful, his vertical
jump unmatched. This time last year,
the 6-10 Wilcox averaged a little more
than three points a game as a freshman.
He spent last summer fine-tuning his athletic gifts and came back a stronger, more confident and more attractive player. His name will be called shortly after Gooden's in the Draft.
Dian. Next year's Kansas will be this year's Maryland.
Kirk Hinrich will be Juan Dixon but with more flair.
Dixon was brilliant moving without the basketball to get his shot. Hinrich needs to get better at this, because next season teams will zero in on him as an offensive threat. But he can score in flurries — like his back-to-back 28 and 26 point Big 12 games in early February — and he stifles guards with his pressure defense. Without Jeff Boschsee, Kirk will have the trigger to pull up behind the arc as much as he wants. And no one in the college game has a prettier or more accurate stroke.
Nick Collison will be Lonny Bax-

Students rally for new center location
50 people show support at Saturday rally sponsored by KUnited
By Leah Shaffer
Kansan staff writer
Outside of the Multicultural Resource Center, about 50 students spent Saturday afternoon rallying for support of the University of Kansas' diversity programs.
Tiffany Lopez, a senator for the Asian American Student Union, said the rally showed that students were willing to take action in support of the
center and the need for a new facility. Lopez, Minneapolis, Kan., junior, said a new center should be located near the Kansas Union.
When Alicia Ellingson, Milford Neb. senior, first saw the outside of the Multicultural Resource Center, she couldn't believe that the small structure next to the Military Science Building was home to so many multicultural programs.
"I think it would be awesome if it could be at a more accessible place," she said.
the importance of diversity. Throughout the afternoon, the bands Hot Sauce and Inspirational Gospel of Voices performed and tours of the center were given.
The rally started at 3 p.m. and was sponsored by KUnited, Rev. Tim Dupree, a KU alumnus, spoke about
Jonathan Ng, Leawood junior and KUnited candidate for student body president, helped organize the event. He said the rally was a step in the right direction.
Robert Page, director of Multicultural Affairs, said the administration currently was reviewing the program but not searching for a new facility. He said that the process of getting a new facility could take awhile.
"I'm not going to speculate on how
long it would take to get a new MRC, but I know that if we don't initiate the process right now, it's going to be a lot longer." he said.
Santos Nunez, director of the Multicultural Resource Center, said she hoped the rally would raise awareness of the programs offered by the center.
"I would like to emphasize that these programs are open to everyone regardless of whether they are minority students or not," she said.

'I was not aware of the homeless problem in Lawrence.'

Sleepout benefits charity
Into the Streets Week participants brave windy weather to raise awareness of homeless
Lawrence residents Vincent and Sara Harding chat with Garnett juniors Andrew Hermreck, far left, and Teresa Schreffler about issues affecting the homeless community in Lawrence. Students gathered pledges and camped out Friday night in Burcham Park to raise money for the homeless.
By Lauren Beatty Kansan staff writer
AARON SHOWALTER/KANSAN
The sleepout, part of Into the Streets Week, was designed to raise money for Jubilee Cafe, a food kitchen that serves free breakfast to the homeless and needy twice a week.
Students braved brisk wind and temperatures below 40 degree Friday night while sleeping outside to benefit the homeless.
Melissa Williams, Chicago junior and communications director of the Center for Community Outreach, the organization that sponsors Into the Streets Week, said the event also raised awareness about the problems Lawrence homeless faced, such as hunger.
Jen Bacani, co-coordinator of Into the Streets Week, said only 10 to 15 people stayed the entire night, but people constantly came and went throughout the event.
"I was very pleased," the Fredonia senior said. "We raised a little over $400."
Participants slept in Burcham Park, Second and Indiana streets. They raised money for Jubilee Cafe by collecting pledges, and every participant had to raise a minimum of $10.
To begin the night, local band The Draft played a concert for the attendees. After the concert, guest speakers, including Joe Alfred, the minister who started Jubilee Cafe, facilitated a discussion of issues surrounding the homeless.
Carey Wolktamp, Olathe freshman, said she participated in the sleepout because she wanted to do another service project after going on an Alternative Spring Break.
"I was not aware of the homeless problem in Lawrence and I thought this would be a good way to learn
about it,"she said.
Woltkamp decided to attend the sleep out about an hour before it started, so she donated the minimum $10 instead of raising pledges.
Kai Lu, Topeka senior, came to the sleep out with Woltkamp. He said he attended because he was concerned about the homeless and the lack of a shelter during the summer months.
Into the Streets week concludes today with a panel discussion from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union, presented with the Service Learning Center, titled, "The Role of Higher Education in the Community."
able to donate about $1,200 to Jubilee Cafe from the fundraising efforts of all the events.
Bacani said she thought the entire week had been a success. She said the Center for Community Outreach was
"I got to meet a ton of different people," she said. "Hopefully they were first time volunteers and they will continue over the summer and next year."

Pride Week to celebrate educate raise funds
By Leah Shaffer Kansan staff writer
Education, outreach and, most of all, pride, headline the 2002 Pride Week at the University of Kansas. The event, themed "Setting the record straight?" in this, its 18th year, kicks off today with two events and will last until Friday.
At 8 tonight comedian Jason Stuart will perform "Gay Comedy for the Whole Family." From 4 to 8 p.m. at Hashinger Hall the Multicultural Resource Center will sponsor the "Tunnel of Oppression," an interactive walk-through exhibit that confronts hate issues.
Chase Richards, McPherson sophomore, and member of Queers and Allies, said that this year's Pride Week will again have the "Donate-Against-Hate-A-Thon" in anticipation of protests by Fred Phelps, a Topeka minister known for his antihomosexual protests. Richards said that anyone could pledge to donate money for each minute that Phelps and his followers protest an event. At the end of the week, the minutes will be tallied up and the donations collected and distributed to Queers and Allies and the Multicultural Resource Center, among other organizations and causes. Phelps protested the event last year, unknowingly raising more than $1,000 in pledges for the organization.
"I'm almost certain that at least some of his followers will be here," Richards said.
If Phelps does not protest, the organization said that while pledges would not be collected, anyone could still donate.
Also tomorrow at 3 p.m. in Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union, Stacey Ann Chin, a slam poet, will conduct a workshop and performance of slam poetry.
Richards said he was most looking forward to the Pride March, which begins at 10 a.m. Saturday at the "Train Park" at Seventh and Tennessee streets. The march will start at the park, move down Massachusetts Street and finish with a picnic.
Christine Robinson, Lawrence graduate student and an event organizer, said that said that other events for the week would include the performance of the play "Questionable Origins" at 7 p.m., Thursday at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. A workshop will precede the play at 3 p.m.
The Brown Bag Drag Show will take place at noon, Friday in front of the Kansas Union.
In addition to the festivities at the University, Robinson said that tomorrow night, the Lawrence City Commission will declare April 8 to 13 to be Lawrence Pride Week.

space shuttle mission Hawley's experience in astronomy helped him on his five space shuttle missions. He maneuvered the robotic arm that deployed the Hubble space telescope from the space shuttle in 1990. The Hubble telescope helps astronomers because it is outside Earth's atmosphere.
Hawley, who grew up in Salina, graduated from the University In 1973 with a bachelor's degree in physics and astronomy. He was selected for NASA's first space shuttle class in 1978.
INSIDETODAY
Although he does not work as an astronomer now, Hawley keeps up with new advances in the field. He said he would return to astronomy in the future, maybe as a professor, if he had the chance. He said he would like to return to the University to teach.
Hawley was also involved with launching the Chandra X-ray telescope in 1999. The telescope uses X-rays to see inside stellar objects like exploding stars, black holes and colliding galaxies.
"I think that would be fantastic, if I ever had the opportunity to do that," he said.

Lisa Baghal, Leavenworth junior, agreed that there wasn't as much as an emphasis on space in the department, so getting to hear Hawley talk was beneficial.
"A lot of us still hold aspirations to be astronauts," she said.

Israeli offensive continues in Mideast
The Associated Press
NABLUS, West Bank - Israeli troops fought fierce battles with Palestinians in the West Bank yesterday, encountering stiff resistance in the crowded Jenin refugee camp and in the winding alleyways of Nablus' Old City.
At least 14 Palestinians were killed in Nablus, where dead bodies were sprawled along narrow, rubble-filled streets on the 10th day of Israel's offensive to weed out militants staging deadly terror attacks on its civilians.
The renewed fighting came as Secretary of State Colin Powell, due in the region this week to try to resolve the crisis, said that Israeli Prime Minister
Ariel Sharon has "taken very much to heart" President Bush's call Saturday for an immediate withdrawal from Palestinian areas.
But Powell noted that the Israeli leader has yet to set a timetable for a pullback, and Bush has not demanded one. "The President doesn't give orders to a sovereign prime minister of another country," Powell said on NBC's Meet the Press.
In a 20-minute phone call late Saturday, Sharon told Bush the Israeli army would "expedite" the mission.
At the beginning of the weekly Cabinet meeting yesterday, Sharon defended the offensive, calling it "a war for our homes."
"We have no interest in dragging it
With international pressure mounting and the U.N. Security Council scheduling consultations on the crisis later yesterday, there were hints of friction between the Israeli government and its military command. Officers sought more time for the West Bank military operation, but Cabinet ministers talked of bringing it to an end.
out, but we have to do the job," Sharon told Israel TV.
Defense Minister Binyamin BenEliezer said the military should operate as long as possible to "clean out terrorism" in the West Bank, but acknowledged that in light of Bush's demand, "our hourglass is running out."
Two KU students receive public policy scholarships
Nicole Hipp and Shane McCall were awarded $5,000 Morris K. Udall Scholarships for the 2002-2003 academic year.
The award was established by Congress in 1992 and is given to college students with career goals in environmental public policy, health care or tribal public policy.
Hipp, St. Louis senior in architecture, aims to establish an architectural firm that focuses on sustainable design, energy efficiency and preserving natural resources. McCall, Topeka senior in environmental science and sociology, plans to become a professor of environmental sociology, teaching and researching about how society affects the environment.
Eight University of Kansas students have earned the Udall Scholarship since 1998.
"Nicole and Shane are prime examples of KU students who care deeply about the environment and structure their academic programs and goals to have an impact on our world," said Chancellor Robert Hmenway.

Alumni reunions spark scholarship hall nostalgia
Stories of panty raids, water balloons,
and the 1952 NCAA basketball championship were told and retold Saturday night as two scholarship halls celebrated their 50th anniversaries with alumni reunions.
By Caroline Boyer Kansan staff writer
Stephenson Scholarship Hall opened in the spring of 1952, and Pearson Scholarship Hall opened the following fall. Each held 50th anniversary parties at Adams Alumni Center for current residents and hall alumni.
"We've had a few minor reunions over the years, but when they sent me the thing in the mail saying it was the 50th reunion, I figured I'd better come since I was one of the first people to ever set foot in the place," said Bill Hoffman, a Stephenson resident from 1952-55.
Seventy-five alumni attended Stephenson's reunion and 52 attended Pearson's. The alumni came from as near as Lawrence and as far away as California and North Carolina.
News of the concurrent Stephenson party renewed an old rivalry for some Pearson alumni.
"Stephenson's having a reunion tonight?" Don Hortor, Pearson resident from 1952-53 said. "We ought to go crash it."
Horttor and other alumni said the two scholarship halls were very competitive.
"We weren't very close with them. As I remember, we didn't like them very much," Horttor said.
944 Mass.
832-8228
Former residents told stories of people getting kicked out of the halls for stealing pumpkins to make pumpkin gin and going on panty raids at Sellards Scholarship Hall.
"It was an interesting experience hearing 70-year-old men talk about panty-raiding," said John Westerhaus, Stephenson Alumni Relations Chair.
Eldon Clark, Pearson resident from 1952-
The former residents noted how the University of Kansas had changed since the halls were built. Horttor said it cost $25 a month to live in the scholarship halls when they opened, and residents had jobs with the University that paid 35 cents an hour.
53, said he thought current residents had pulled some wilder stunners than his class had.
"We've heard some stories today that would top anything we can tell you," Clark said.
Before the parties, current hall members gave alumni tours of the halls and of campus.
"I came to KU not knowing a soul, and in a few weeks I felt I was part of a family—maybe a slightly dysfunctional family, but a family." Rex Heater, Stephenson resident from 1969-73, said.
At the evening parties, current and former residents gathered for hall pictures before dinner. After the meal, former hall residents spoke at each party, reminiscing on their time in the halls and the traditions that are still carried on today.
Westerhaus, Overland Park sophomore, and Josh Wunderlich, Pearson Alumni Relations Chair, both thought that a common theme during the night was the continuation of traditions and pranks that have been played since the halls' early years. Stories of attempts to launch potatoes through the uprights of Fraser Hall and water balloon fights between the halls were mentioned in alumni speeches from multiple generations.
"One of the alumni said to me afterwards that he appreciated that the same type of antics from his time here were still going on." Wunderlich, Stillwell junior, said.
Sellards Hall will celebrate its 50th anniversary with an alumnae reunion this weekend.

OPINION
MONDAY,APRIL8,2002
EDITORIAL It's up to you to increase election turnout
For many students, there appears to be no question about the upcoming Student Senate election — or even the slightest interest.
Historically, less than a fourth of the student body votes in each Senate election. Ruth Stoner, assistant Dean of Students, said that 18 percent of students —4,233 to be exact voted for student body president and vice president last year.
This figure is far too low. Senate elections are Wednesday and Thursday, and even though it might not seem like the most exciting or pertinent thing to do, we should all cast our votes.
Politics is not the place for passive resistance. Decisions are made by the students who show up at the polls. Every vote matters, a fact that was extremely apparent in last year's Senate election, where the votes of 39 students decided that Delta Force would be in charge.
If you're a student reading this editorial, there isn't no reason you shouldn't vote later this week. With eight polling places on campus, voting itself isn't difficult, and being an informed voter isn't too terribly difficult, either. There is still time to find out about the candidates and coalitions through open debates and forums, through coverage in the Kansan and even by visiting one of the tables on Wescoe Beach.
and even by visiting one of the schools. The results of this election will impact every student, not just a select 18 percent. For example, Senate allocates your student fees — the $282 each one of us will be paying each semester. Whether you vote, your money will be spent — but if you cast your vote you can help decide where it should go. This year Senate has organized rallies, discussions and protests about your impending tuition increase.
tests about your impressions. Senate makes decisions that affect all students, and when we as students fail to vote we are failing to be represented fully. More of us should turn up at one of the eight polling places on-campus this Wednesday and Thursday.

In response to the person who called wondering what MacGyver's first name is, in the pilot of the series they called him Stace, and then they dropped it. And they made a big deal about nobody knowing what his real name was until they had in seventh season an episode about Camelot, in which case they said his name was Angus. Just so you know.

I think the Kansan needs to report on the Senate coalitions attitudes toward sexual orientation, because I heard that a coalition is anti-gay and doesn't support domestic partners and believes that homosexuality is wrong. I feel that that is a very bad attitude to hold at KU.

Tower A is not the only tower with roach problems. I live in Tower D, and we have them, too. So I don't think we need to go around blaming the international students for not being clean enough.

I'd just like to comment that that girl does the wash your hands commercial on KJHK has the most annoying voice I've ever heard on radio broadcast journalism.
I just wanted to say that I was walking on Wescoe Beach, and I stopped by all the coalition tables, and I was really impressed with Jonathan Ng. I usually don't like politics or even Senate, but he really stands out among others. I'm going to vote for him.
I was just wondering if Kirk Hinrich has a brother, because if he does, I'm pretty sure he plays Will on Days of Our Lives, that little kid.

Why does everybody in Lawrence drive like a freakin' old lady?
If KU wants to improve it's attendance numbers it needs to stop comparing itself to real schools like the 11 other schools in the Big 12, because that's not fair. Those schools have real fans who really know how to cheer for their school, and KU just doesn't have it.
Blind Date is the best show on TV right now, and the article that girl wrote dissing Blind Date sucks.
I've got two things to say: Andre Agassi is married to Steffi Graff, and she is not hot, and the Student Body Vice President Campus Masturbator in the UDK is the best thing I've ever read. Thanks guys.

Students should fight legislature for a quality, affordable education
PERSPECTIVE
Check please. This apparently is the sentiment Republicans in the Kansas Legislature are hearing from college students here in Kansas.
GUEST COMMENTARY
Although I haven't heard the calls for higher tuition myself, someone must be quite vocal as they are attempting to balance the state's now $700 million budget shortfall by cutting state funding to Kansas universities as well as Social Rehabilitation Services and K-12 education.
GUEST COMMENTARY
This forces us to choose between raising tuition or letting the quality of our school, and the degree we hope to take from it, diminish.
Tom Keating opinion@kansan.com
It may seem like a highly partisan claim to make, but the issue has really become Republican-Democrat in the final days of the session. On March 29, Republicans resurrected a House Bill that would make incredible cuts to Education and Social Rehabilitation Services — a bill they promised Democrats in the minority party was just an exercise in determining where legislators stand on certain tax cuts. Democrats are left with few options because of their numbers. The Kansas Senate is divided 30 Republics to 10 Democrats; the House divided 79 Republics to 46 Democrats.
If you have ever felt that what happens in politics and State government isn't important to you, this session should erase all doubt. If
The other component of this debacle isn't as innocent. In the face of a booming economy in the 1998 session, Republicans opted to cut taxes to the tune of $220 million while ignoring Democrat's amendments to retire about $50 million of state bonded indebtedness and reduce the State's sales tax on food. The tax cuts allowed Gov. Graves and Republicans across the state more time in office to represent us as they won sweeping victories in the 1998 elections. Today, when faced with the outcome of their fiscal mismanagement, they propose to leave us with the bill.
for a fair amount of the state's problem.
If it's possible to make the 25-minute, 80-cent trip to Topeka on the turnpike to contact your House and Senate representatives before the session ends, it would be a trip well worth it. Alternatively, you can find contact information on the Kansas Legislature's Web site, www.kslegislature.org. If you are pleased or displeased with the job of your individual representatives, take it back to your home.
Your local newspaper, businesses, friends and family need to that the actions of the Legislature affect you. If they won't listen know, they may be forced to this November.
Republicans cut funding, we will be faced with the direct impact of our tuition increasing substantially — possibly doubling before many of us walk down the Hill. If that doesn't affect you personally, you may be safe in asserting that the happenings of government don't affect you at all.
Keating is a Marysville freshman in political science.
Why does this budget problem even exist? Like the financial problems we face personally, there are many different factors that add up—your job, car, fiscal mismanagement, etc. The job aspect of the state's problem is that our economy has slowed from its boom in the late 1990s. We were also hurt in a big way following the events of Sept. 11. This was especially true in Wichita's large manufacturing industry because of a sudden and staggering reduction in air travel. A slower economy results in less tax revenue, which accounts
U.S. must address Israeli-Palestinian crisis
PERSPECTIVE
Yitzhak Rabin, Yasser Arafat and Bill Clinton got very close to a deal that would save thousands of lives. But, in the end, they didn't.
Nine years ago at the White House, two men shook hands in a symbolic gesture of historical dimensions. The two had just signed a piece of paper that seemed to open the road for peace in the Middle East.A third man watched with a grin.
Move forward to July 2000 at Camp David. Things still seemed to be going pretty well for those who like peace. Even though Rabin had shot five years before by a Jewish fundamentalist, Israel, the PLO and the United States again worked together to solve differences that had lasted for thousands of years and coined by then-Secretary of State Madeleine Albright as a challenge of "biblical proportions." President Clinton and his charming diplomacy were close to cutting a historic deal that would bring peace to a region that has seen anything but it for the last 50 years.
But Camp David was too good to be true. A deal wasn't sealed. Even though Palestinians and most Arabs see the United States as a biased mediator because it gives money and weapons to Israel, they saw Clinton as a credible man. Despite his numerous flaws and intern-loving manners, Clinton knew what he was talking about. He understood the peculiarities of the situation. He knew the region's culture and history. George W. Bush does not.

KU Med Center cuts 90 positions
The Associated Press
KANSASCITY, Kan. — The University of Kansas Medical Center will eliminate about 90 full-time positions in response to expected state budget cuts, a university official said.
The cuts will include 20 faculty positions, university spokesman Kevin Boatright said.
"It's only partial at this point," Boatright said Friday. "There will be more letters coming."
Last week, 11 full-time, unclassified staff members were told their positions would be eliminated as of June 30. Another 10 vacant unclassified positions also will be eliminated.
The layoffs affect only university staff; in fact, the hospital is still hiring, hospital spokesman Dennis McCulloch said.
The cuts are based on the budget Gov. Bill Graves initially sent to the Legislature Graves' proposal cut the Medical Center's budget by $6 million, or about 6 percent, as the state faces a $700 million budget shortfall.
The 90 positions represent about 3 percent of the Medical Center's 2,907 employees. Of the 21 position cuts identified so far, one is a faculty member.
That professor taught in a physical therapy outreach program in Pittsburg, which would be eliminated in the budget cuts.
The University's Lawrence campus also is facing staff reductions. Chancellor Robert Hemenway told a Senate committee last month that up to 175 faculty and staff positions could be eliminated on the university's main campus.
Boatright said differences in staff policy handbooks required more notice for Medical Center staff when positions won't be renewed.
University officials remained hopeful the Legislature would restore higher education funding, Boatright said. But even if that happened, he said, the announced cuts likely would remain.
Graves proposes closing armories
The Associated Press
TOPEKA—Despite efforts in recent years to improve armories and security concerns that have grown since Sept.11, Gov.Bill Graves has proposed closing 10 of the 58 armories across the state.
The action would transfer the property to local authorities and remove the National Guard's presence from the affected communities.
Maj. Gen. Greg Gardner, who as Kansas' adjutant general commands 8,000 National Guard troops, is working with his staff on a formula to determine which armories could be closed.
It's a process he has taken seriously. Besides hurting the Guard's recruiting efforts, losing an armory often cuts a community's only connection to the military.
"Our business of soldiering is a duty of the heart, because it requires sacrifice of self and family," Gardner said. "Any closure will be traumatic."
The Lawrence armory is home to the members of the 2nd Battalion of the 137th Infantry, who are providing security at military installations in Europe. Before Sept. 11, the building was a gathering place for numerous community groups, including the Jayhawk Kennel Club's obedience courses.
Just two years ago, the state issued $22 million in bonds to repair armories, which on average are 50 years old. But the economy has lost strength and the state's tax receipts have shrunk, helping create the current budget shortfall of about $700 million.
Closing 10 armories — a small part of Graves' proposed solution — would save the state $175,000 in fiscal 2003, which begins July 1.

COMMENTARY
Florida contest brings surf, seasickness
theory.
That's right — while everyone else was sitting on Wescoe Beach or in class, as a Baby Jay, I was in Daytona Beach, Fla., for the past week with the rest of the Spirit Squad. I'm even writing this column while watching the waves roll in from my balcony. Jealous?
Dude, what a week — from cornfields to waking up with foreign, rotten smells right next to your bed, to being sunburn on a beach. And that's not even half of the story.
The reason we're here? It's called the Chick-fil-A Cheer and Dance Collegiate Championship. The entire Spirit Squad — including all mascots, Crimson Girls and cheerleaders — traveled to Florida to compete against other schools. More than 150 schools competed in all divisions.
This is the competition stuff you see on ESPN with overly-peeped cheerleaders who never stop smiling. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Think pouring it on for a week long.
Each squad put in long hours over the past months coming up with stunts, routines and a skit for Baby Jay—another KU student, not me—to bring to competition.
Mascots in this competition sent in tapes months in advance as a preliminary round, and the top five were chosen to compete in finals. Each mascot was given one minute and 30 seconds to perform an original skit with props in front of an audience and a panel of judges.
Baby Jay placed fifth in the nation for mascots.
The Crimson Girls performed last Thursday and placed 13th out of 30 teams.
The cheerleaders also competed on Thursday and placed 12th out of 17 teams.
There were many rules and restrictions each team had to follow, including time limits on performances.
Each team performed well, especially considering it was the first experience for everyone at this competition.
It was a good trip except for the last night in Daytona. All I can say is, I think it might have been better to leave Saturday. The entire spirit squad decided to take a Casino Cruise on Saturday night. It seemed like a good idea at the time.
The hotel we stayed in sold us the tickets, yet failed to tell us about the possibility of rough seas, getting sick and being stuck on the boat for five hours.
Us naive Kansans.
Within 50 minutes, the boat was rocking and more than half of us were sick.
It looked like the plague had hit the top deck. We had bodies lying on the floor and hanging over the edge. The bathrooms were disgusting.
It was the worst night of my life, hands down. The captain of the ship told us that if 100 people got sick and threw up that we would have turned the boat around. By 10 p.m., the count was up to 97, but unfortunately it never reached 100. As we got off the boat, a dealer said it was the worst night she had ever witnessed as far as seasickness went.
The cruise should have been renamed Hell on Water.
All-in-all, though, the trip was an experience for all to remember (well, let's hope most of us remember at least half of the trip).

Tennis team undefeated
Two weekend wins cap a home season without Big 12 loss
By Jonah Ballow Kansan sportswriter
For the first time in eight years the Kansas tennis team went undefeated at home with victories over Missouri Saturday and Iowa State yesterday.
"To win all of our matches today makes this win and going undefeated at home so special," coach Kilmeny Waterman said. "Iowa State is a deep team we just got off on the right foot today. Going undefeated at home is a great feat since we had to play some of the top teams in the Big 12.
This team is very proud of themselves and I think they should be. We knew that we would have a tough schedule and it is gratifying to know that we have just gotten that much better as a team."
The Jayhawks have not lost to
Iowa State since 1981 and continued that streak with the 7-0 victory.
Kansas started the match strong by winning all three doubles matches. No.1 doubles team Courtney and Kristen Steinbock beat Noortje Cornelissen and Sabrina Evers 8-1, improving its winning streak to eight straight matches.
In singles play, the jayhawks won all six matches with the effort of sophomore Emily Haylock. At No. 2 singles, Haylock defeated Edna Vazquez 6-2, 5-7, 6-2 in a grueling three-set match.
the current Big 12 Conference player of the Week, Courtney Steinbock, cruised to a 6-3, 6-2 victory over Tara Goedjen at the No. 3 singles position. The match marked the 10th consecutive victory for Steinbock.
"I played all right in the first set, but I then had to concentrate and I was able to come through in the third to get the win," Haylock said.
"This was a great effort. We still have a few tough matches," Haylock said. "Hopefully we can keep our winning streak alive."
The Jayhawks earned another Big 12 victory when they defeated their rivals, the Missouri Tigers, 6-1. Kansas earned the point by winning all three doubles matches, as No. 1 doubles Courtney and Kristen Steinbock battled back from a 6-3 deficit to win 9-8(2).
The Jayhawks then took care of business in singles play by winning five of their six matches.
"When we play Missouri, there is always a lot of emotion and it is a match we want to win," coach Waterman said.
No. 33-ranked Kansas improved its record to 14-3 on the season and 8-0 in the Big 12. The Jayhawks head back on the road when they travel to Lincoln, Neb., to face the Nebraska Cornhuskers in a Big 12 battle.

Baseball team loses series against Texas
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
After winning the first or a three-game series Friday, the Kansas baseball team was unable to finish off the Texas Longhorns losing the final two games of the series Saturday.
With the losses, Kansas dropped to 13-15 overall and 2-10 in Big 12 Conference play. Texas improved to 28-9 and 7-5.
The Longhorns won the season series against the Jayhawks for the sixth straight year, dating back to the inception of the Big 12 in 1996.
Kansas' 5-3 victory Friday was highlighted by a superb pitching performance by Jeff Davis. The senior threw a complete game, allowing three runs, walking just one, and striking out two. He improved to 4-1 on the season.
"I thought I got stronger as the game went on," Davis said. "Travis [Metcalf] was great defensively in the first inning. He made a couple of outstanding plays that really saved the game when I wasn't throwing very well."
Saturday wasn't as successful for the Jayhawks. In the first game, Texas jumped to a big lead by scoring six runs in the first en route to an 8-3 victory. Senior Dan Olson (3-3) started and pitched four innings, suffering the loss. Sophomore Chris Smart pitched the final four innings, allowing just two hits and no runs.
Junior catcher Beau Thompson went 2-for-4 with a run, leading the Jayhawk offense. Sophomore outfielder Matt Triblek had the only RBI for Kansas.
Offensively, junior first baseman Casey Spanish led Kansas with two hits and his first homer of the season. Metcalf and junior shortstop Brandon Shepard each contributed two hits.
used two hits.
Senior third baseman Ryan Klocksien's RBI single and junior designated hitter Kevin Wheeler's three-run double gave Kansas an early 4-0 lead. But Texas fought back, tying the game at 4-4 in the eighth, and eventually won with a run-scoring single in the 11th.
Freshman Tom Gorzelanny (0-5) suffered the loss, working three innings of relief.
"I thought we played well defensively all weekend long," coach Bobby Randall said. "We got out to an early four-run lead but we were unable to push any more runs across. I thought our guys played their hearts out, especially after the first inning today."
Next up for the Jayhawks is a game with No. 8 Wichita State tomorrow night. Game time is set for 7 p.m. at Hogglund Ballpark.

Track individuals finish strong in Texas
Bv Matt Norton
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas track and field team posted several strong performances this weekend at the Clyde Littlefield Texas Relays in Austin, Texas, but left the meet unsatisfied.
Coach Stanley Redwine said he was pleased with many of the performances, and in some cases, the place the Jayhawks finished wasn't indicative of the performance.
Scott Russell earned top-5 finishes in the discus, hammer and javelin throws, setting a personal best in the discus and automatically qualifying for the NCAA championships in the javelin. The discus and hammer marks were provisional qualifiers to the championship meet as well.
Three seniors led the way for the Jayhawks.
Russell said he was surprised with his
fifth-place 181-10 throw in the discus, because he hadn't practiced it much in the last two years. He also hadn't touched a discus since the Jayhawks meet at Southern Illinois two weeks ago, because back problems kept him from throwing the 10 days prior to the meet.
"It was great to actually do something right in the discus for a change." Russell said.
In Saturday's javelin competition, Russell said he had thrown some long throws in warmup and had felt like he was ready to do well.
But confusion by the meet officials over the start time of the event caused him to wait nearly 30 minutes before he threw his first-round attempt.
The fact that the javelin approach crosses over the running track and the throwers often had to wait for races to finish before they could throw affected his rhythm, Russell said.
After squeaking into the final on his
third throw, Russell waited until his sixth and final attempt to send the javelin out 239-01 to finish second and earn a trip to nationals.
Russell wasn't quite able to overtake John Stiegeler of Oregon, last year's NCAA champion, who threw 242-11 to win the event.
Stiegeler had an advantage this weekend that he wouldn't have at the NCAA championships, because unlike Russell, he trains only for the javelin and doesn't compete in indoor events, Russell said.
Russell placed third in the hammer with a throw of 208-09.
"I can give him the early one, I guess," Russell said. "I'll worry about the later ones."
Senior distance runner Katie Eisenmenger also had a busy weekend, anchoring the distance medley relay to a second place finish Friday night before setting a new personal best in the women's 1500-meter run Saturday.
The next day, Eisenmenger ran 4:25.15 in the 1500 to finish fourth behind All-Americans Erin Sims of Texas, Karin Rooyen of SMU and Shannon Spaulding of Texas Tech.
The relay team of sophomores Laura Lavoie and Stacy Keller, freshman Kim Clark and Eisenmenger ran 11 minutes, 33.13 seconds finishing behind Texas (11:25.38) and placing third on the all-time Kansas list.
After sitting behind the leaders for much of the 1500, Eisenmenger took the lead with less than 200 meters to go before faltering in the final 50 meters.
Still, a NCAA qualifying mark is well within her reach, she said.
"As long as I can improve by a couple seconds at least, I should be able to make it," she said.
Sims won the race in 4:23.82

Softball weathers rain, ' Hawks win one of two
By Ali Brox
Kansan sportswriter
Rain and thunder forced an almost three-hour delay before the Kansas softball team got down to business against No. 21 Texas A&M Saturday.
The delay did not hurt the Jayhawks, as Kansas won the first game 6-4. But Kansas' bats disappeared in game two and the Jayhawks were held hitless in a 3-0 loss.
"Our energy was good for the first game," coach Tracy Bunge said. "We were able to take advantage of some of their mistakes and our hitters were on the ball solidly. But in the second game we didn't seem to have that same energy. We got behind in the count and some of our hitters are pressing, trying to do too much at the plate. But I don't want to take away from the pitcher who threw a
very good game."
In game one, the Jawhaws (23-16 overall, 3-6 Big 12 Conference) capitalized on two Texas A&M errors in the second inning. Senior right fielder Leah Tabb reached base on an error and advanced to second on a wild pitch. Senior second baseman Amy Hulse laid down a sacrifice bunt and an error by the A&M third baseman allowed Hulse to reach base and Tabb to score for a 1-0 lead.
The Aggies tied the game in the third inning on a single to left field by Kelly Ferguson, and took the lead with another run in the fifth inning.
Kansas responded with three runs on four hits in the sixth. Tabb hit a run-scoring double, senior Katie Campbell hit an RBI-groundout and Hulse singled up the middle to score Tabb.
The Jayhawks added two runs in the seventh on RBIs from Urquhart and Tabb and took a 6-2 lead.
The Aggies threatened in the bottom of the seventh, scoring two runs, but Kansas was able to hang on for the victory. Sophomore Kara Pierce earned the win and improved to 11-6, while Settlemier picked up her third save of the season.
After manufacturing 10 hits in the first game, the Jayhawks couldn't come up with any in the second as Texas A&M pitcher Jessica Slataper threw her second no-hitter of the season.
"The first game we were very pumped because we'd been waiting at the field during the delay and we were ready to play" senior center-fielder Shelly Musser, who went 3-for-4 in the first game.
said. "The second pitcher threw a very good game, and it was frustrating at the plate. It was more of us not adjusting to what she was doing."
Katie Campbell
DANIELLE MCKINNEY
The Aggies scored runs in the second, third and fifth innings for the 3-0 victory. Settlemier took the loss and stands at 6-6 on the season.
Kansas plays again in a double header starting at 2 p.m. Tuesday against Southwest Missouri State at Jayhawk Field.

CONTINUED FROM 6A
To top it off, Eisenmenger ran a 2:11 on her leg of the 4x800 meter relay Thursday, her fastest 800 leg ever, in a race in which the Jayhawks finished fourth.
Eisenmenger said she was pleased overall with the weekend, but that both she and the team an do better.
Senior distance runner Charlie Gruber also ran on the 4x800 and distance medley relays, then added the 4x1500 relay on Saturday.
After being somewhat disappointed by a fourth-place finish in the 4x800 relay Thursday with a time of 7:33.44, Gruber said he was eager to run well in the DMR Friday night.
But when he got the baton for his anchor leg, Gruber was well behind the leaders from Arkansas, SMU, Baylor and Texas A&M.
"I felt really good in the DMR," Gruber said. "It didn't feel like I went out hard at all."
But he did, running the first lap in 56 seconds and the first 800 in 1:57 to close the gap on the leaders.
Although he ran 4:04 for his 1600-meter leg, he wasn't able to hang on, and the lavhawks finished fifth in 9:49.22.
Arkansas won the race in 9:39.67, and Gruber said he looked forward to racing in Fayetteville, Ark., next weekend at the John McDonnell Invitational.
"I'll try to even the score next week with those Arkansas guys," Gruber said.
The 4x1500 relay finished ninth with a time of 15:56.53.
Other Jayhawks who didn't travel to Texas competed Saturday in the Euler State Farm Emporia State Relays. Sophomore Sarah Schraeder was the lone winner for Kansas, winning the high jump with a leap of 5-5.

Men's golf swings into action with first-place momentum
It is a great time to be a member of the Kansas men's golf team right now. The team is coming off its only first place team finish this season at the Stevinson Ranch Invitational. In that tournament, senior Casey Harbour placed second overall, junior Chris Marshall finished third, and senior Travis Hurst placed fifth.
The team will hope to carry that momentum over into the Western Intercollegiate in Santa Cruz, Calif., which begins this morning at 8 with the first two rounds of play, and will finish with third
round action tomorrow morning.
The Jayhawks have not placed any lower than 8th in their last five tournaments carrying over from the fall season. The team will look to pull off a huge upset in this tournament with a field that contains perennial powerhouse Stanford.
Kansas will send the same lineup that finished first at the Stevinson Ranch Invitational. The lineup includes Harbour, Hurst, Marshall, sophomore Andrew Price and freshman Kevin Ward.
Duke standout wins award
—Ryan Greene
LOS ANGELES — Jason Williams of Duke, last year's runner-up, won the 26th John R. Wooden Award yesterday as college basketball's top male player.
"Wow. This is a great award," Williams said, accepting the trophy from Wooden in a presentation at the Los Angeles Athletic Club. "This one just tops them all. Coach Wooden represents everything I've always stood for — pride, integrity and trust."
Williams beat out Drew Gooden of Kansas by 900 points.
Williams will graduate in May with a sociology degree in just three years. He is the third Duke player in four years to win. Shane Battier beat out Williams last year, and Elton Brand won in 1999.
Duke lost to Indiana 74-73 in the regional semifinals of the NCAA tournament when Williams missed a free throw that would have tied the game.
"Everybody's been saying, 'I'm sorry
Williams led the Atlantic Coast Conference with 21.3 points a game.
Williams received 5,223 points in voting by a national panel of sports writer and sportscasters. Gooden was second with 4,323.
you missed that shot against Indiana,' but I've had a great career," said Williams
Juan Dixon of national champion Maryland was third with 3,845; Cincinnati's Steve Logan was fourth at 2,887; and Gonzaga's Dan Dickau was one vote behind in fifth.
Williams singled out Dixon in his thank yous.
Williams was accompanied by Duke assistant Johnny Dawkins, filling in for coach Mike Krzyzewski, who is recovering from hip surgery.
"Playing against Juan for three years has been a great thing for me," he said.
Former Louisville coach Denny Crum also attended to receive the fourth Legends of Coaching award. Crum played and coached under Wooden at UCLA.

Does it seem as if you've been running
into a lot of closed doors, yet you feel kind of luck? Maybe all those doors are closed to protect you. A friend will help you find the door that's right for you, and it'll open.
Aries (March 21-April 19). Today is a 7. Some of your great schemes may have to go when you realize they're completely impractical. That doesn't mean you should abandon all fantasy. Another scheme could be a real moneymaker.
The line between fantasy and reality could get pretty thin this year. Don't worry about which is which. You need both to be successful. Develop both the left and right sides of your brain.

Festival attracts crowd to celebrate the mandolin
By Mandalee Meisner Special to the Kansan
The mandolin is a small, almond-shaped instrument. It's held in the lap and plucked like a guitar, but it's tuned like a violin. Musical notes ring delicately from four pair of steel strings stretched along its fret board.
To many, the mandolin is relatively unknown, and a festival devoted entirely to its appreciation might seem outlandish.
F. W. M. C.
But to the organizers and musicians involved with Lawrence's annual mandolin festival, Mandofest 2002, the crowd of 500 gathered for the festival proved the sustained appreciation for this diminutive instrument. The turnout for Saturday's festival in Liberty Hall was the largest in Mandofest's 11-year history.
CONTRIBUTED ART
Jeff Dearinger, who conducted the event's orchestra with a frenzy of fist-shakes and animated jumping-jacks, combined styles of music ranging from Franz Lehars classical compositions to Django Reinhardt's more casual arrangements.
This year the orchestra was comprised of 24 mandolins, 6 mandolas and 3 mandocellos, larger relatives of the mandolin. Extra accompaniment was provided by guitar, bass and percussion.
Dearinger reflected the informal yet dignified nature of the program, sporting a black conductor's blazer over jeans and hiking boots. At one point, a 30-pack of Busch Light beer was brought out for Dearinger as a sign of appreciation for his 5 years of impassioned conducting.
Before the last song was performed, Dearinger addressed the audience;
"During this upcoming piece, the orchestra will stop playing for some time. But if you clap, you'll be embarrassed, because it's not over yet!"
It worked; not a single sound was heard during the prolonged silence.
Scott Tichenor, co-organizer of Mandofest with Dearinger, said this year's event benefited from an influx of participants and attendees from outside the region.
One such participant was the Don Stiernberg Trio, a well-known mandolin group from Chicago. The trio headlined the event and entertained the audience with Robin Leach and Harry Carray impressions in between Steinernberg's smooth jazz numbers.
Tichenor said the motivation behind the festival stemmed from both the plethora of local acoustic talent and from the mandolin's strong local history.
"The thing that really started this orchestra was a period of time through the 1890s up until the 1920s
Mandolin clubs, such as KU's own, pictured here, were common in the early 1900s. After ragtime was popularized in the 1920s, most mandolin clubs and orchestras faded away.
when mandolin orchestras were the big thing." Tichenor said.
After Italian immigrants brought the mandolin and mandola to American shores in the late 1800s, a veritable mandolin craze swept the country.
People were delighted with its novel size and shape, as well as the light sound it emanated. Mandolin orchestras sprung up all over the country. Lawrence alone had two.
The University of Kansas even had its own mandolin club in the early 1900s.
Mandolin orchestras played at sorority and fraternity dances. People even complained to the newspaper that especially loud mandolin players kept them up at night.
During the 1920s, the banjo replaced the mandolin as the instrument of choice. Mandolin orchestras are now mostly gone in America.
Radim Zenkl, a Czech mandolinist who has played mandolin for audiences throughout the world, said the orchestras were still prevalent in Germany, Italy and Japan.
"People have figured out that it's great for kids to learn," Zenkl said. "There are hundreds of children's orchestras in Germany."
Amber Kjeishue, Gardner junior, attended a workshop held by Zenkel at Mass Street Music last Thursday. Although she watched from the sidelines Saturday, she said she hoped to somehow become involved with Mandofest next year.
"Maybe I'll be in the orchestra," she said.

New meal plans to include eateries on campus next fall
By Caroline Boyer
Kansan staff writer
The Department of Student Housing is working out the kinks in a program that would allow students to use their meal plans at all eateries on campus.
Late last fall, the Student Housing Advisory Board approved a $20 increase in students' contracted meal plan fees for next fall. The $20 would be added to the students' KUID cards for students to use at all campus eateries other than housing centers. The program is known as the Flex Plan.
The Department of Student Housing plans for next year's program to be a trial run. Ken Stoner, director for student housing, said the results of next fall's Flex Plan trial would help determine how the plan would work in the future.
"The goal is eventually to move meal plan monies to the Flex Plan so they can be used on campus," Stoner said.
Before that goal can be reached, though, the intricacies of the Flex Plan trial run will have to be worked out. Stoner said the department was still figuring out the details such as how to store money on the card.
"I think we're at the point where we need to make some changes. We need to partner up and give students what they want in terms
of options."
Jay Glatz
Director of Food Services at the
Kansas Union
Jay Glatz, director of food services at the Kansas Union, said giving students more options with their meal plans was a nationwide trend. He said sitting down for three square meals a day was already not an option for many students and allowing them to use their meal plans on campus would give them better flexibility to get a full meal.
"I think we're at the point where we need to
make some changes. We need to partner up and give students what they want in terms of options," Glatz said.
Some universities, such as Duke University in Durham, N.C., already allowed students to use money from meal plans outside of housing cafeterias. Since 1990, Duke University's meal plans have allowed students to use their meal plan points at 20 on-campus restaurants and for delivery from 11 restaurants in the area.
Stoner said the department was not considering extending the plan to area restaurants at this time because it was focused on fine tuning the details of an on-campus plan first.
The Association of University Residence Halls has been involved with setting up the program for two years. Autumn Ayers, AURH president, said the University was behind other schools in expanding the meal plans partially because the dining systems in the unions and in housing were separate.
"This is actually a big step for KU since the services are

Exhibit offers insight to hate
Tunnel of Oppression shows viewers reality of intolerance
By Leah Shaffer Kansan staff reporter
A group of students emerged disoriented and shocked from the basement of Hashinger Hall yesterday afternoon. They had just emerged from the Tunnel of Oppression, an interactive exhibit that takes a direct approach to issues surrounding hate and oppression.
in the tunnel, participants observe people suffering from hateful acts and assume the role of the oppressed. Small groups of people are shuttled through a basement hallway and exposed to exhibits and expressions of hate through different media. The experience is created with use of live actors, video and sound, and addresses specific issues such as domestic violence, eating disorders and racism.
"I've never seen that before," said David Tit
terington, Prairie Village freshman, in response to one of the Tunnel's exhibits. "I feel a little more aware of the hatred that goes on."
Ins is the second year of the tunnel exhibit, which is sponsored by the Multicultural Resource Center and run by student volunteers.
Santos Nunez, director of the Multicultural Resource Center, said the tunnel was an effective teaching tool because of the variety of powerful audio and visual elements involved, which she requested not be revealed to allow for full impact upon participants. She said alarming people was not the purpose, though.
"Our goal is not to shock or scare people. We want to show people that oppression is alive and well." she said.
Nunez said students were often surprised OPPRESSION

Two tax credits available for students and parents
By Adam Pracht and Melissa Shuman Kansan staff writers
The federal government wants to help you pay for college, if you'll let it.
With the tax-filing deadline approaching, University of Kansas students or their parents have the opportunity to get up to $1,500 back from the government when they file their tax returns.
Two tax credits are available to reimburse taxpayers for money spent on tuition and fees for higher education. The HOPE Scholarship Credit offers up to $1,500 for students in their first two years of higher education, and the Lifetime Learning Credit offers up to $1,000 per return for any education after high school. The two cannot be claimed for the same person in the same year.
Adam Fisher, Hays sophomore, might have been eligible for the HOPE credit, but he didn't know how to check. Fisher sent in his tax forms three weeks ago with the line for education credits blank.
Fisher said his mom helped him complete his tax returns after getting forms from the post office. Neither Fisher nor his mother were

aware of the possible tax break. Next year, as a junior, he may be eligible for the Lifetime Learning Credit.
Pat Duerksen, Director of H & R Block Premium tax service, 1201 Wakarusa Drive, said students should be aware of the tax credits that are available to them.
"Pay attention to how much the government is keeping, and not just what the refund is," she said. "Be a consumer, and know what you're really paying."
Claiming the credit
A tax credit is a reduction in the amount of taxes owed. Since many people who work have their taxes withheld from their paycheck, a tax credit at tax filing time often means a rebate of those taxes already paid. Tax filers can only get TAXES

Students to vote on free papers, representation of greeks
By Sarah Hill Kansan staff writer
Two referendums will ask students whether they want to continue the readership program and include greek housing in the off-campus constituency.
Students will decide the fate of the Student Newspaper Readership Program and give input about increased representation for Greek housing during Student Senate elections this week.
The readership program, which started last year, gave students with valid KUID cards the chance to read USA TODAY, the Lawrence Journal-World, the New York Times and the Kansas City Star.
Student Body President Justin Mills said Student Senate charged students $6.50 in student fees for the newspapers last year. When Senate reevaluated the program's costs, it found it had over-budgeted for program expenses. Mills said the budget had been determined by researching what schools, similar in size to the University of Kansas, had spent for their readership programs.
"We overestimated the costs for last year by about $100,000," Mills said.
This year's referendum will ask students if they want to continue the program at a rate of $5 in student fees. Mills said excess money from this year's budget would be spent on adding newspaper stations on campus and maintaining current stations.
The second referendum will designate residents of greek housing as off-campus residents in the Student Senate Rules and Regulations. Students living in greek housing are represented by Panhellenic Association and Interfraternity Council senators, who are appointed by the organizations and not elected by students.
Andy Knopp, Interfraternity Council president and engineering senator, collected more than 1.100 signatures for the student-generated initiative.
Knopp said he thought students and senators wanted greek representation, and he was excited to hear what students had to say about the issue.
"The initiative on the ballot is just a way to rectify a situation that excludes a specific group." he said.
Elections will take place Wednesday and Thursday.

"It's just amazing for me," he said. "I guess I never thought I could do it."
Khosrowpour is deciding what to do with the Steinway piano worth $35,900 that he was awarded.

Four scholarships to be offered to non-trad undergraduates
A non-traditional leadership scholarship is being offered through the Student Development Center. Four $1000 scholarships will be awarded from the Student Senate funds to four non-traditional undergraduates next semester. Students must be enrolled in minimum of nine hours for fall 2002.
BRIEFS
Laura Morgan, Student Development assistant director, said students must be three years older than traditional classmates, the parent of dependent children, commuting from 10 or more miles away, a married student or a military veteran to meet non-traditional criteria. The student should also have financial need and have made leadership and service contributions on campus or in the community.
Morgan said the committee would give special consideration to students who address or contribute to non-traditional or general student issues at the University of Kansas.
The selection committee is staffed by Student Development Center, the Financial Aid Center, the Department of Student Housing, Veteran Services and the Hilltop Childhood Development Center.
Applications are available at the Student Development Center at 22 Strong Hall or by email at nontrad@ku.edu. The application deadline is Monday, April 15th.

Commissioner's impartiality under scrutiny
By Sarah Hill Kansan staff writer
The Student Senate elections commissioner is under fire again for a possible conflict of interest.
Commissioner David Mitchell attended a party given by the Delta Force coalition this weekend. Members of other coalitions have raised questions about the commissioner's objectivity during elections.
"The commissioner has set up standards to be as nonpartisan as possible," Hayley Rumback, Wichita senior and campaign manager for the Vision coalition, said. "It just looks questionable."
Student senators questioned Mitchell's impartiality earlier this semester. Drew Thomas, Hays junior and off-campus Delta Force candidate, is Mitchell's roommate.
Mitchell said he went to the party because he had been friends with Jana Mackey, Hays sophomore and off-campus Delta Force candidate, and that he had close friendships with people in each of the four coalitions. The party took place at Mackey's house.
Mitchell said he had nothing to hide.
"As usual, if anybody has an issue they want to bring up, they should feel free to talk to me directly rather than through newspaper articles," he said.
Mitchell said he was attempting to be fair by going to the party, and would attend any parties given by the coalitions.
"I feel like there's two ways to be a fair administrator," he said. "One is to not be involved with any coalitions, or two, to be involved
with all of the coalitions."
Mitchell said he planned to attend all four of the post-election parties on Thursday night.
Elections commission member Scott Kaiser, Overland Park second-year law student, said he was uneasy with commission members attending coalition events.
"If the party was a Delta Force event, then his attendance at that party would be inconsistent with the election commission's goal of appearing impartial," Kaiser said.
Jonathan Ng, Leawood junior and KUunited presidential candidate, said Mitchell's presence set a bad example.
"I don'tthink the election commissioner should be involved with any coalition,but should remain neutral," Ng said.
Delta Force presidential candidate Karen Keith said she thought he would be more strict with Delta Force than the others because of Mackey's roommate.
"Dave Mitchell's a pretty cool guy," he said. "He invited me to his birthday party. I'll smile for him."
Paul Bammel, SMILE presidential candidate, said he thought Mitchell was being fair to everyone, because Mitchell invited all of the coalitions to his birthday party last weekend.
In the interest of full disclosure, Kansan staff writer Maggie Koerth is Jana Mackey's roommate. Koerth was an off-campus senator who ran with Delta Force last year.

TAXES
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
a credit for the taxes they owe, so a filer without any income would not be able to use the credits.
The tax credits are available to whoever pays for tuition and fees
— the parents if they claim the student as a dependent, or students filing separately.
The credits aren't available for those who exceed a set income level, so some students with high-earning parents may need to file separately in order to take advantage of them.
Each January, the University sends each student a form called a 1098-T, which tells students how much they've paid for tuition and fees. This number is used to determine the size of tax credit that taxpayer will receive.
Getting help
Even without considering the education credits, many students are intimidated by taxes and seek professional assistance.
With the tax deadline only six days away, many sources of help are already booked. Legal Services for Students offers free tax advice for students, but no appointments are available until after the April 15 deadline for filing tax returns, said Lauren Reinhold, staff attorney.
Professional tax preparers like H & R Block and Jackson Hewitt Tax Service, 951 E. 23rd Street, have been busy with client returns for months. Appointment times with Legal Services for Student have been full since March 1.
Nevertheless, students who need help are not out of luck. Taxpayers who file a request for an Automatic Extension of Time to File (Form 4868) and pay their taxes on time gain four months to submit their paperwork. If it's
later found that money is owed back, the filer will receive a refund. Extension forms can be found in the Legal Services for Students office, 148 Burge Union.
Students can make an appointment with Legal Services, file an extension and receive assistance after April 15 in filing their taxes. Legal Services does not accept walk-ins or give advice over the phone, so students must make an appointment.
They can also use paid preparers, but H&R Block's Duerkensen said neither could help if taxes weren't paid on time.
"It's not an extension to pay," she said. "It's only an extension to get your papers together."
Taking it slow
An extention is important because it allows students to understand their taxes and not
make mistakes. Durkensen and Reinhold both said students could sometimes make mistakes if they didn't take time to go over their taxes with a legal or tax professional.
Durkensen said that when students looked for tax credits, they should be sure to avoid a common mistake and not list themselves as a dependent of their both their parents and themselves.
Reinhold of Legal Services for Students said students should be wary of other common errors. She reminded filers to list all forms of income including salary, tips, stock proceeds, bank interest and scholarships.
She said students sometimes didn't understand that scholarship money not used for tuition, fees, or textbooks was taxable as income.
Reinhold also said out-of-state students were sometimes
eligible for tax credits in their home state on their state income tax returns.
Students who want more information about taxes may consult the Internal Revenue Service website at www.irs.gov.To find out more about education credits, download IRS publication 970 Tax Benefits for Higher Education.

ENDORSEMENTS: STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT Delta Force is the right choice
Delta Force's platform encompass the big picture. That, along with a to-the-point approach, earned Karen Keith, student body presidential candidate and Kit Brauer, vice presidential candidate, the 2002 Kansas editorial board's endorsement.
After interviewing Keith and Brauer and KUnited candidates Jonathan Ng and Loren Malone, the Kansan editorial board endorsed Keith and Brauer by a 4-3 vote with one person abstaining. Representatives of the SMILE coalition chose not to participate.
chosen as Delta Force's platform has the potential to influence multiple student issues. Keith and Brauer said they would try to get a student representative on the Board of Regents and cited a plausible plan to accomplish their goal. The duo succeeds in properly addressing issues such as the tuition increase with extra representation on the Regents and also simple issues students care about.
say many. Ng said alcohol on campus was his least favorite issue appearing on coalition platforms because of looming tuition increases, but KUnited's proposed yellow bike program is just as frivolous and even more implausible. Delta Force already researched the bike program. The idea was not original. KUnited wants to implement a program in which donated bikes would be painted yellow. The bikes would be left on campus for students to ride at their convenience. But Ng and Malone both
Keith and Brauer want to change the alcohol policy on campus, lessening restrictions about where and when alcohol can be consumed. But they do say many of their goals are long-term.
Both Keith and Ng have impressive backgrounds outside Student Senate. Keith was president for Amnesty International and worked on Students for a Free Tibet among other things. Ng helped found the Pre-Journalism Club and also is a member of Asian-American Student Union.
said they didn't ride bikes on campus now. This suggests to the editorial board that the University of Kansas does not have a campus that facilitates bike riding, and the logistics of the yellow bike program are too complicated to make it worthwhile.
can students only. Brauer also boasts an impressive background on Senate. The sophomore candidate became involved with Senate committees his freshman year. Malone, who served as the appointed Panhellenic Association senator her freshman year, took last year off from Senate. Because the vice president must have extensive experience regarding how Senate works and Senate's rules and regulations. Brauer is the better candidate.
Ng and Malone made a convincing case for their candidacy, as is illustrated by the close vote. The duo will push for a new multicultural resource center in a centralized location. It's impressive to see a coalition talking in terms of specific action required for an end result.
It was a close vote and both pairs of candidates showed strengths and weaknesses in their platform issues, but Keith and Brauer answered questions directly without any spin. They are the best choice to represent the student body.

Check 'yes' on both ballot referendums
students should vote in favor of both referendums on this year's ballot. One referendum proposes
both referendums on this year's ballot. One referendum proposes the continuation of a fee for the newspaper readership program, which brings The Kansas City Star, The Lawrence Journal-World, The New York Times and USA Today to campus for students to pick up.
The $5 fee per semester is $1.50 less than students paid this year, and it is worth the cost for papers to be available on campus with the swipe of a KUID. It's a small price to pay in comparison
to what it would cost for subscriptions to the publications.
The program was implemented last fall. Its success was illustrated around the Sept. 11 tragedies when the papers were hard to come by.
The other referendum on the ballot allows students living in greek housing to vote for candidates for off-campus senator. It is only fair that greeks get adequate representation.
Greeks currently receive a form of representation through Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Association
senators, but those senators technically only represent those governing bodies.
It would be better if additional senator seats were created specifically to represent students in greek housing. But until that happens, greeks must have the same representation in Senate.
Students should vote in favor of both referendums when they go to the polls tomorrow and Thursday.

Issues: Institution of a domestic partnership policy;
student power in tuition increase; budget decision within the school of fine arts.
"I am a typical student in the school of fine arts who cares about his education. The budget cuts within the University have caused a shortage of funds and materials within fine arts. It is important to me and my friends (most of who are fine arts students) that all the departments within the school of fine arts have adequate funding."
Topeka sophomore
Katie Rush ✔✔
issues: Re-instating the previous (longer) hours of the common shop, photo lab and computer/print lab and providing more student help; repairing or replacing such necessities as easels, chairs and tables; making the University equally responsible with the students for funding campus safety features such as dual-use emergency phones and improved lighting on campus.

Senate gives the opportunity for all students to be heard and I would see my duty to represent your interests to the best of my ability."

Students falsify e-passports
University officials discover downloaded forms doctored for enrollment
By Meredith Carr Kansan staff writer
Some students have been found falsifying e-passports to enroll this semester.
Cindy Derritt, associate university registrar, said because the e-passport was in electronic form now, it was easier to download and make unauthorized changes, such as deleting holds and changing enrollment times. Officials at the enrollment center noticed the fake passports because some had different fonts, Derritt said, while other e-passport information on the falsified passports did not match up with information in the enrollment center's database at the door of the enrollment center in 151 Strong Hall.
She said most students who had falsified passports did so to clear holds — financial obligations to the University that stall enrollment — because of
financial issues or just to see if they could get away with falsifying the passports.
"In the past, students would falsify their permits so they could get better enrollment times, but we haven't seen much of that this semester." Derritt said.
The e-passport, the new online version of the permit to enroll, contains student enrollment information such as enrollment dates and times as well as whether the student has any holds. As KU moves closer to online enrollment, this enrollment period marks the first time students must download e-passports, as well as Academic Record Tracking System and course schedule forms.
The registrar's office would not say how many students it had found who had altered their e-passports. But Jane Tuttle, administrative assistant for the Office of Student Life, said by reviewing the number of students who falsified permits to enroll last semester, she expected that about 12 students would falsify their e-passport by the end of enrollment.
enrollment:
Students suspected of tampering with the document undergo an investigation by the enrollment center, Tut-
le said. If the student is found guilty, a letter is issued giving the student 20 days to come forward. The student may also choose to have a hearing. If found guilty by the student disciplinary committee for enrolling with a falsified document, the student will be dropped from all enrolled classes and be forced to wait until everyone has enrolled to re-enroll in classes. The incident will also remain on the individual's nonacademic University record for six years.
The disciplinary committee is made of two unclassified faculty members and one student, Tuttle said.
She said students who had been accused in previous semesters had avoided the disciplinary hearing by talking to her directly.
talking to her directly. "It's a matter of integrity, and I don't think some students realize that," Tuttle said. "Part of that is because it's hard to look an adult in the eye and say, 'Can you believe what I've done?'"
Enrollment started Friday, March 29, and ends Friday.

Wiley said the online sign-up has received a positive response so far.
"After we sent out a mass e-mail on Friday afternoon, 300 students signed up over the weekend," Wiley said.
Students can still sign up for the optional fees in Strong Hall and the fees are still billed with tuition.
Wiley said he had only received three of four e-mails with questions about the online form. He said the convenience of online option sign-ups was what drew students to the site.
"Now you can sign up from home." hesaid.
"After the enrollment process, people are tired of being at Strong Hall or they have to go to class and it gives them another option."
Charee Pitts, Kansas City, Kan., junior, said she usually ordered her parking pass through the Parking Department, but might try to order it through the online sign-up this year.
"That would be better," she said. "It would save someone a trip."

Housing rule stymies search for subleasers
By Maggie Koerth Kansan staff writer
Editor's note: Because of a printing error, this story was printed incorrectly on Friday's front page. The story appears herein its entirety.
Students who wish to sublease their apartments may have a hard time reaching their target audience. AKU Department of Housing policy banning advertisements in residence halls makes it hard for the two groups to find each other.
Paige Higgins, Denver sophomore, said she was going to sublease her apartment because she wanted to go home for the summer, yet she was struggling to find a temporary resident because of the policy.
"it's really a problem," she said.
Diana Robertson, associate director of housing, said subleas-
flyers were not allowed in residence halls because housing prohibited all advertising, which subleasing flyers are classified under, except those pertaining to student groups. She said the issue of student subleasing presented a special problem, but she said she didn't think housing would be changing the policy any time soon.
"We want to have consistency in our policies throughout the year," she said. "When the Off-Campus Living Resource Center opens that will help. In the meantime, if housing residents have a problem with the policy they should talk to their hall government leaders."
The Off-Campus Resource Center is a Student Senate program that will set up a place where students can pick up information on all kinds of off-campus living. It will be located in the Kansas Union next fall.
Megan Johnson, Troy freshman, who lives in Ellsworth Hall said she thought finding a room for the summer would have been easier if sublease flyers were allowed in the residence halls.
"It would have been nice. I could have just gone down the hall instead of all over the hill," she said.
Johnson said it was intimidating for freshmen to find a sublease. She said next year she would probably use the Off-Campus Resource Center to find a place to sublet.
Kyle Browning, student body vice president, said he thought the center would be helpful to students looking for subleases.
"We plan on having an apartment board where people can put their flyers and lots of information to help students find a place to live," he said.

Expert warns of overpopulation
By Mike Gilligan Kansan staff writer
At the current rates of population increase, Nigeria would be as bigas the United States in the year 2050 and 27,000 species of plants, and animals are lost every year because of the annual growth in the world's population.
Werner Fornos, an expert on population issues and the president of the Population Institute in Washington D.C., presented these and other facts in a lecture last night on the issue of population and the problems it posed. About 40 people attended the lecture in Woodruff Auditorium.
Sigma Xi, an honors society for scientific research, chose Fornos to give its annual lecture.
Sigma Xi President Wakefield Dort Jr., a professor emeritus of geology, said Fornos was selected because his topic was "the single most important subject facing mankind."
Fornos said 80 million people were born last year, but 80 percent of them were born in poor countries.
He said this was because a lot of people in poorer countries were not educated about birth control and how to prevent unwanted pregnancies. As a result, they have children they are unable to feed.
"86 countries can't feed their populations," he said. "That means some 800 million people will go to bed hungry tonight."
Fornos said it was not too late
to change the problem of overpopulation.
"We need to eradicate female illiteracy and educate women on the ways of dealing with unwanted pregnancy," he said.
Formos said the countries that used most of the resources needed to be more cautious of how much they used. He pointed out that the U.S. made up four percent of the world population but used 30 percent of the world's resources.
He had a warning for the crowd as well.
"Unless we change things, we're headed for environmental armageddon," he said.

Amelia Earhart lands in Student Senate elections
By Adam Pracht Kansan staff writer
As University of Kansas students vote for student senators tomorrow and Thursday, they might see a familiar name on the ballot.
Amelia Earhart is running for one of fifteen Nunemaker seats, which are Senate positions that represent students with 60 hours or less.
There's no ballot misprint here and no miraculous return of the famous Kansas aviator who disappeared mysteriously in 1937.

Earhart, Downey, Calif., freshman, said bearing the name of her more-famous second cousin twice removed made her a target for teasing when she was a child.
However, she said the name now brought her recognition.
"Personally, it gives me confidence because it's such a great person to be named after," she said. "Because it's not coincidental — because it's my family tradition — I'm really proud of it. I don't think it's hindered me in any way. If anything, it's a really big benefit."
The historic Amelia Earhart, who was born in Atchison, was the first woman to complete a
solo flight across the Atlantic Ocean in 1932. She disappeared while attempting to fly around the world in 1937.
Earlart's mother, Debbie Conley, said she wanted to name Earlart after the family's famous relative to inspire her and give her instant name recognition.
The famous last name was passed to the KU Earhart by her father, Glen Earhart. Her father's father was Amelia Earhart's cousin.
Amelia Earhart, Downey, Calif., freshman will be representing the Vision Coalition in tomorrow and Thursday's Student Senate elections. Earhart, who is a relative of the famous pilot by the same name, is running for a Nunemaker seat.
"It's given her the spark to see that women can accomplish things and just follow your dreams," Conley said.
Earhart, who is running with the Vision Coalition, said she was focusing on issues like longer move-out times in residence halls and a stop to student fee increases.
Earhart said that she usually received at least one comment on her name daily and that had
Since the disqualification of the coalition's presidential and vice presidential candidates, she said she had even more to accomplish. She will be one of the representatives for the Vision Coalition in the presidential debates at 12:30 p.m. today on Wescoe Beach.
helped her with her campaign. She also said it created humorous situations.
For example, some students thought her campaign posters were advertisements for a play about the historic aviator.
She said once when she wrote a report about Amelia Earhart, the teacher mistook her name for the title and wrote a comment that her name was missing.
Conley said the most comical reaction she had seen was when Earhart had traveled alone by airplane and they called her name over the intercom. She said everyone stopped where they were and looked up at the speakers.
While confusion is sometimes funny, she said her name had profoundly influenced her life.
"Oftentimes, people are reluctant to attempt things that have never been done before and tell themselves that those chances should be left up to those more fortunate." Earhart said. "Also, individuals convince themselves that average people cannot achieve great things. But, through studying about a woman that changed the course of history and who will never be forgotten, t
learned that she was just a little girl named Amelia who grew up in Kansas."
She said she wanted to enter law school to become an attorney, but she's also taking a cue from her predecessor.
She wants to be a pilot
"Everyone always tells me, 'No one's going to want to fly with you,'" she said.
But she said she couldn't imagine anyone with her name not being interested in learning to fly.

separate, but the amount of time it has taken can be frustrating for students because they don't understand that," said Ayers, Wichita senior.
Ayers said she thought the bureaucracy of the University was also part of what had held the program up.
She said issues that had slowed the process were being unable to schedule one meeting with both dining systems and the probable changes with the KU card after the contract expires next January.
Diana Robertson, associate director for student housing, said she didn't think there was a concern about dining services losing money once students could use meal plans on campus.
"Itbecomes a cooperative venture, where housing and the Union are working together to give the students more options," Robertson said.
Stoner said although the department had multiple variables to consider, he felt confident that the Flex Plan would be up and running this fall.

that such hateful expression still existed.
Thirty student volunteers were involved in presenting the tunnel images. One of the volunteers, Jason Robertson, Kansas City, Mo., senior, acted in a scene addressing domestic violence.
"It's extremely taxing," he said. "It's really hard to yell comments that you really don't mean."
Khaleel Sayeed, Wichita freshman, worked as the guide through the tunnel.
"If it's going to help people realize the harms of oppression, then I'm willing to do it," he said.
Nunez said students could leave the tunnel if the images were too disturbing. Trained counselors from Counseling and Psychological Services are on the scene to provide support. Nunez said that last year, a few students opted to leave the tunnel.
Titterington said even with the shocking effects the tunnel was worth the trip.
"It will remind people to work to end this hatred," he said.
The Tunnel of Oppression will be open from 4 to 8 p.m. tomorrow at Hashinger.

Car crash kills three north of Manhattan
The Associated Press
FRANKFORT — Three people were killed and two others injured when a pickup truck crossed the center line on Kansas 99 and hit a car, authorities said.
The Kansas Highway Patrol said both vehicles went off opposite sides of the highway around noon Sunday.
The victims were identified as the car's driver, Joshua Middleton, 24, and two occupants — Ronald Bramhall, 47, and Anna Jane Tilley, whose age was not available. All three victims lived in Frankfort.
The injured victims were airlifted to a Topeka hospital.

COMMENTARY
Andy Davies
adavies@kansan.com
Football team faces more than competitors in the stadium
One program's tradition drips with success — national and conference championships, a string of All-Americans and legions of adoring fans.
The other program boasts limited success — often that success is a winning season sandwiched between years of bad teams. There are conference championships and All-Americans, but memories of them are fading quickly and belong only to fans who have followed the Jayhawks for decade upon decade.
Kansas basketball and football couldn't be much more different. Basketball is a religion. Football an afterthought once basketball practice starts in October. But why are the programs worlds apart? I used to credit the gap to superior coaching, better talent and the home-court advantage of Allen Fieldhouse for the basketball team.
About two months ago though, I discovered the real reason behind the differences in the two programs. Sitting in Wallace Johnson's Myth, Legend and Folk Beliefs in East Asia class, I was dutifully taking notes when ol' Wallace said something that caught my attention.
Johnson said he was going to explain why the Kansas basketball team experienced so much success and the football team struggled year after year.
Of course, I perked up instantly. It's not just any day that you get to find out the answers to such important questions in life.
Johnson began to explain about chi. Chi is the life force that flows through the universe and people. There are two types of chi: the yen, which flows from the north and should be avoided at all costs, and the yang, which comes from the south and is warm and pleasant.
Johnson, giving an example of how chi works, said the struggles of the Jayhawk football team and the success of the basketball team could be summed up by that old real estate rule: location location, location.
Memorial Stadium sits on the north end of campus against the base of Mount Oread. When the yen flows into the stadium, it bounces off of Mount Oread and flows right back into the stadium. That gives the stadium a double whammy of the awful chi. It's no wonder the Jayhawks haven't had a winning season since 1995. (Of course, playing teams like Oklahoma and Nebraska every year may have something to do with that, too.)
Conversely, Allen Fieldhouse sits on the south side of Mount Oread. The cathedral of basketball receives all of the positive yang chi not once, but twice. The yang also deflects off of Mount Oread and flows back into the Fieldhouse. Is it any wonder then that 11 Final Four banners hang from the rafters?
Obviously, nothing needs to be done to help the basketball team. But what should be done to limit the affect of the yen on the football team. Another stadium could be built on a more favorable site. A giant wall could be constructed on the north end of Memorial Stadium to block the yen force from coming in. Still, the best solution might be to convert the stadium into a dome.
Then the Jayhawks would only need to defeat the opponents on the field.

Williams aims for rafters
If Gooden stays or goes Kansas coach still wants No.0 hung in Allen Fieldhouse
By Doug Pacey
Kansan sportswriter
The men's basketball team annual awards ceremony is usually highlighted by the seniors' speeches and team highlight video, but it was Roy Williams' announcement about junior Drew Gooden that had the audience buzzing.
No, Kansas' coach didn't say if his All-American forward was staying for his senior year or leaving for the NBA, but said he was going to lobby the Kansas Athletic Department to hang Gooden's No.0 jersey from Allen Fieldhouse's south rafters. The National Association of Basketball Coaches named Gooden and Duke's Jason Williams co-players of the year this season. A KUAC rule says that a player can only have their jersey hung in the fieldhouse if he or she earns the National Player of the Year, which is voted on by the media, or the NCAA Tournament's Most Outstanding Player.
Williams said he thought the NABC honor had more credence because it was voted on by coaches, while "guys who listen to Dick Vitale" vote for the National Player of the Year award.
After Williams ended his comments, a misty-eyed and obviously surprised Gooden walked across the Lied Center stage in front of nearly 2,000 people and embraced his coach to a standing ovation.
"If Drew goes, he has given us three good years," Williams said. "If he stays, I'll enjoy coaching him next year. But sometime in the near future they'll hang another jersey in Allen Fieldhouse."
Gooden, who was also voted by his teammates and coaches as the team's Most Valuable Player, was unavailable for comment, but Williams said he has gathered information about the Richmond, Calif., native's draft prospects and expected a decision to "come soon."
After the ceremony at the Leid Center,
"We had a great year this year and I'd like to thank everyone again."
Drew Gooden Kansas junior forward
Gooden's father, Andrew, said that a press conference would come later this week but he didn't know what the decision would be because his son was torn between staying and leaving for the pros.
When Gooden gave short speeches after receiving the Bill Bridges rebounding award for the third year in a row and the Phog Allen team MVP award, they had all the earmarks of a farewell speech.
"This is the best team I've played on since I've been here," Gooden said as he addressed the audience. "We had a great year this year and I'd like to thank everyone again."
The Jayhawks are also in danger of losing junior Kirk Hinrich and Nick Collison to the NBA, too. Williams said he had details about their draft status to give the two Iowa natives so they could make a decision about next year, too.
"There's 2,000 people here that will pull for TCU in every game except for one," Williams said. "But I don't believe anyone in this crowd will put on that frickin' purple."
One person who has already left the Jayhawks for another team is assistant coach Neil Dougherty, The Leavenworth High graduate accepted a position as Texas Christian University's coach about two weeks ago after Kansas beat Oregon for a berth in the Final Four. Dougherty choked up when he said his goodbyes but couldn't help laugh when Williams poked fun at the Horned Frogs' colors

The Jayhawks ended the season with a 97-88 loss in the Final Four to eventual-national champion Maryland, but finished with a 33-4 record and a perfect 16-0 Big 12 Conference mark.

Freshman pitcher Tom Gorzelanny is a possible starter for Kansas tonight when it takes on No. 8 Wichita State at 7 p.m.at Hoglund Ballpark.
CHRISTINA NEFF/KANSAN
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team plays its biggest non-conference game of the season tonight, when No. 8 Wichita State comes to Hogland Ballpark for a 7 p.m. showdown.
"It's in-state, and it's a big rivalry," coach Bobby Randall said. "Wichita State is one of the best teams in the nation."
With the Jayhawks (13-15 overall) coming fresh off a three-game set against No. 11 Texas, and with a three-game set with Texas Tech starting on Friday, the top three starters on Kansas' staff, seniors Jeff Davis, Dan Olson and Jake Wright, will likely be unavailable for tonight's game.
"As important as Wichita State is." Randall said, "it has to take second to the Big 12."
Tonight's starter is yet to be determined, although possibilities include freshmen Chris Jones (2-1) and Tom Gorzelanny (0-5).

"We have several guys that are itching for an opportunity to start," Randall said.
The Shockers (20-7) are coming off a four-game series against Indiana State. They won three of the four, including a 14-10 victory on Sunday. They are led by sophomore Drew Moffitt, who has hit .378 with eight homers and 27 RBI in 27 games.
"Other than the fact that he's been hampered by a hamstring pull the last two weeks." Shocker coach Gene Stephenson said of Moffitt, "I think that he has become a very good hitter, with great patience, and balance. He has tremendous strength and bat speed."

Kansas softball coach Tracy Bunge talked about the team starting the season over mentally last week.
The Jayhawks were on a losing streak and in desperate need of a victory. Victories against Washburn and Creighton got the Jayhawks back on track as they headed to Texas A&M for more Big 12 Conference play.

raurus (April 20-May 20). Today is a 7. Don't take on a friend's problem. That's not good for either of you. Instead, suggest ways he or she can achieve success. Teach, even if it initially seems like your lesson is falling on deaf ears.

Indians take new team to victory against Twins
CLEVELAND — The consensus was that the Cleveland Indians had slipped. With all the off-season changes, they wouldn't be nearly as good this year.
The Associated Press
Travis Fryman's faith was never shaken.
"I was surprised by how many people jumped ship," Fryman said. "I kept looking around the locker room and saying, 'Do they see all the people I still see around here?' We're much better than people ever gave us credit for."
Gaming
Fryman hit a grand slam, Ellis Burks and Matt Lawton added two-run homers and the Indians won their home opener 9-5 yesterday against the Minnesota Twins.
Sporting new uniforms and featuring a lineup radically altered by trades and free agency, the Indians won their fifth straight game and sent an early

DENVER—With a single, triple and home run in his first three at-bats, Craig Biggio knew what needed to be done.
"Well, you know what you need," Biggio said of his last at-bat. "But the last thing you're trying to do is hit a double. I was just trying to击 the ball hard. That's what I'm trying to do every time up.
After being walked intentionally in his next plate appearance, Biggio lined a two-run double down the left-field line, completing the cycle and helping the Houston Astros to an 8-4 victory yesterday in the Colorado Rockies' home opener.
"It's a special day. It's a lucky day when something like that happens. I caught a couple of breaks with the ball staying inside the line. It’s kind of cool."
Astros
Biggio, who drove in four runs, put the Astros ahead 8-1 with his double in the eighth.
Lance Berkman hit his fourth home run of the season, a two-run drive off Denny Neagle (1-1) in the third, and Roy Oswalt won his second straight start, sending the Rockies to their fourth consecutive loss.
Biggio, who entered the game hitting a team-low .174 (4-for-23) with no RBIs, went 4-for-4 with a two-run homer, triple, two-run double and single to raise his average to.296.

NASCAR
FORT WORTH, Texas — Maybe practice is overrated.
matt Kenseth won the Samsung/Radio Shack 500 yesterday despite running only five laps in practice at Texas Motor Speedway.
Kenseth found the answer, holding the lead with a late-race, two-tire stop and driving to an easy victory in his No. 1 Roush Racing Ford.
His few laps came Friday, before he blew an engine. Saturday's practice was rained out, and more wet weather Sunday postponed the race, leaving everyone guessing about chassis set-ups on the repaved 1 1/2-mile oval.
"When you have a fast car, sometimes you don't want to practice too much and start making changes that might slow you down," Kenseth said. "Really, we had kind of decided on our own what we were gong to run on our car and it was pretty close to the set-up I ran on my Busch Saturday."
Kenseth finished fifth in the
Busch race.
The key moment in yesterday's race was the two-tire pit stop near the end.
"We lost a race like that in California in my rookie year by taking four tires," Kenseth said. "We didn't want to do that again, and we knew if some of those other guys got out ahead of us, we probably wouldn't be able to get past them."
It was the second win of the season and the third of his career for the former NASCAR Winston Cup rookie of the year, who solidified his hold on second place in the season.

GOLF Women's team lacks luster, finishes 13th in Indiana
It was a tough weekend for the Kansas women's golf team, as it placed 13th overall in a 14-team field at the Indiana Invitational in Bloomington, Ind.
The top teams in the tournament
were all from the Big 10 Conference with Michigan placing first, host school Indiana placing second and Illinois coming in third.

The top finisher for Kansas was junior Heather Rose who finished in a tie for 28th place with a total three-round score of 240. Junior Jill MacDonald placed in a 37th place tie and sophomore Jennifer Bawanan finished tied for 61st. Other Jayhaws competing included junior Tiffany Kruggel who ended up tied for 70th place, sophomore Tegan Thornberry finishing in a tie for 75th place and junior Kristy Straub who ended up in 82nd place.
The only other Big 12 school to compete was Missouri, which ended up in a 6th-place tie with the Wisconsin Badgers.
The Jayhawks will not have much time to recover from the weekend as they will compete next weekend in the Iowa Invitational in Iowa City, Iowa. Next weekend's tournament will be the final tune-up for the team before the Big 12 Championships.

Tigers fire top managers remain winless in April
DETROIT — The Detroit Tigers, baseball's lone winless team, fired manager Phil Garner and general manager Randy Smith yesterday.
Luis Pujols, a coach with the Tigers, will take over as manager on an interim basis, said team president Dave Dombrowski, who will assume the general manager's job.
Detroit, which hasn't had a winning record or a winning April since 1993,
sputtered in the first week of the season, dropping three games each to Tampa Bay and Cleveland.
The Tigers hired Garner in October 1999. He was considered a well-respected manager despite a losing record with Milwaukee. At the time, Garner also was a candidate for an opening with the Chicago Cubs.
M
In two-plus seasons with Detroit, Garner had a 145-185 record and a 708-802 record overall.
many had questioned Smith's future when Dombrowski, one of baseball's most respected executives, was hired away from the Florida Marlins in November to be team president and, in turn, Smith's boss.
Smith was in his seventh year as general manager of the Tigers. Both mens' contracts were set to expire after the 2003 season.

Smith, a junior from Kansas City, Mo., and Abbott, a sophomore from Wakeeney, came to the University with no rowing experience and no plans of trying out for the team. But each, for various reasons, ended up signing up to become a lahawk row anway.
"It was the kind of thing 1
thought I'd try, and I ended up really loving it," Abbott said. "It has taught me a lot."
Rowing also changed Smith's life.
"I didn't even expect to make the team," she said. "I just wanted to participate in sports after high school. It has been a real whirlwind trip."
Smith is the coxswain for the Jayhawks' varsity eight boat this season, and Abbott is the coxswain for the second varsity eight boat.
The coxswain sits in a seat at
the stern or bow of the boat facing forward. The crew member in that position is responsible for steering the boat, calling out the rate in which the team should row and for carrying out a strategy by gauging the competition's position.
"If you can't drive a car straight, you definitely can't steer a boat full of eight people," Kansas coach Rob Catloth said. "A coxswain has to know which way the wind is blowing and be able to think two to three steps ahead of everyone else on the river."
Smith said the most difficult
part of adjusting to being a coxswain was assuming such a prominent role on the team. Kansas coxswains act as assistant coaches when the boats are on the river, giving orders to the other rowers.
"My freshman year I was kind of intimidated because some of the rowers had had experience before and I hadn't," Smith said. "Over the years, I have gained a lot of confidence and learned that me stepping up and pointing out what little things the boat is doing wrong improves our performance. Being
a perfectionist is a good quality to have if you're a coxswain."
Both Smith and Abbott have been coxswains since becoming members of the team. Smith steered the second varsity eight boat last season, and Abbott guided the first novice eight boat.
With all of the experience returning this spring at the coxswain position, in addition to the other positions on the boats, many on the team expected to start the season off in strong fashion.
Last Saturday,all four of the Jayhawks' boats lost to Texas in head races on the Kansas River. But Catloth said his team was still pretty young and that Smith and Abbott still have some learning to do.
But that wasn't the case.
"They haven't been in any meaty races yet," he said. "And we're still working on their killer instinct."

Notes:
Defense, one of the struggling areas of the Kansas game, improved significantly against Texas. The team committed just three errors all weekend, and Randall said some new players stepped up when needed.
"Travis Metcalf filled in at second base and did a terrific job," he said. "We got Jason Appuhn back out there, too, and he's good defensively."
Wichita State leads the all-time series 34-15 over the Jayhawks. They swept the 2001 season series, winning
6-0 in Lawrence and 5-4 in Wichita.
The in-state rivalry has been popular among fans in recent years. Last year's game in Lawrence attracted 975 fans, the second-highest total of the season for Kansas. The 2000 game brought in 1,550 fans, the fourth-highest total in Hoglund Ballpark history.
■ Four players on the Jayhawk roster are from the Wichita area, including sophomore Ryan Baty, Kansas' top offensive threat. Baty is hitting. 353 with four homers, 28 RBI and nine stolen bases this season.

Bunge said she expected the team to come out on top of at least four of its six games this week. But the Jayhawks need to work on the offensive aspect of their game if they hope to get back on track. Kansas managed 10 hits in the first game against Texas A&M, but was held hitless in the second game.
Senior centerfielder Shelly Musser said the problems in the second game stemmed from the Kansas batters not adjusting to the changes the Texas A&M pitcher made.

Ozzy and family rock networks
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — One man symbolizes the divergent fortunes of MTV and VH1: Ozzy Osbourne.
The Osbournes seemed like a risk on its face. It created its own genre — a show structured like a sitcom but featuring real people. And could America grow to love a family with a largely washed-up rock star, his manager wife and two high-struggle children?
MTV has him, and the reality sitcom starring the frazzled heavy-metal legend and his family has become the kind of watercooler hit cable executives only dream of. The Osbournes has helped MTV build the biggest audience in its history.
The Osbournes drew 4.1 million viewers to its regular Tuesday time slot on March 26. Strikling while it's hot, MTV now airs The Osbournes 15 times a week.
VH1 doesn't have him. It doesn't have much of anything else and that's reflected in sinking ratings.
"You have people in their 40s talking about MTV, which hasn't happened in a while," said Brad
Adgate, research director at Horizon Media.
"It has accelerated our development of reality shows," he said. "We've had a tougher time with more scripted material. I'm not sure our viewers expect that from MTV. They come to MTV for music and things that are a little fast-paced."
Horizon
For the first three months of this year, MTV averaged 541,000 viewers, up from 504,000 the same period last year. To be fair, its success is not all The Osbournes. The show Total Request Live is still a hit, Cribs, which gives celebrity home tours, does very well, and so does the dating show, Dismissed.
One could argue that The Osbournes would have been a better fit for VH1 than MTV. MTV's target audience wasn't born during Ozzy Osbourne's heyday with Black Sabbath. But it's a moot point. VH1 doesn't have him.
The Osbournes' success has the network considering a similar behind-the-scenes look at a rap star's life, Toffler said.
point. VH1 has had hit shows in the past. Pop-Up Videos was much
But Behind the Music is starting to run out of interesting stars to profile. It feels stale.
imitated, and the trashy Behind the Music melodramas about the rise and fall of rock stars did well
It's the show VH1 is most counting on to refresh its schedule and create a sensation. So far it hasn't happened; Late World averaged 129,000 viewers a night its first three weeks on the air.
Not many people do. He's the host of VH1's, Late World With Zach, that debuted March 4, the eve of The Osbournes premiere
VH1 averaged 198,000 viewers for the first three months of the year, down markedly from its 252,000 average a year earlier. according to Nielsen Media Research.
Know who Zach Galifianakis is?
Longtime VH1 chief executive John Sykes departed last month to take over Viacom's radio subsidiary. MTV's Judy McGraft was put in charge of VH1, and she's looking for someone to run the network on a day-to-day basis.

Kansas teams play host to Fools Fest ultimate tournament
By Stephanie Goettsch Kansan sportswriter
The KU men's and women's ultimate frisbee teams played host to the 21st Fools Fest tournament last weekend at Shenk Field.
"It's a traditional tournament that teams really look forward to," said Katie Rabbitt, Chicago, Ill., sophomore, and member of the women's team, the Bettys. "It's all about bringing out your inner 'fool' and playing frisbee."
The HorrorZontals, the men's team, went 4-1 and improved its record to 21-6 overall. The team won three games on Saturday, slipping by Colorado College with a 13-12 victory and defeating St. Olaf, 15-5, and the University of Nebraska, 12-5.
The game also had special significance because of a family rivalry. Aaron Schieber, Kansas City, Kan., senior, is a member of the KU team while his brother, Loren Schieber, is the team captain of the ultimate frisbee team from St. Olaf, Minn.
"St. Olaf beat us in the fall and was supposed to be our toughest competition on Saturday," said Julian Ryba-White, Manhattan sophomore. "We did a good job taking care of the disc and avoiding turnovers in that game."
"It's a friendly rivalry and
there's no added pressure. He actually taught me how to play and is probably better than I am." Aaron Schieber said. "It did feel good to beat them though. I can't deny that."
On Sunday, the 'Zontals picked up their fourth victory, 13-8, over the University of Arkansas. They suffered their first and only loss to Colorado State in semifinals, 13-8. Colorado State finished second overall, and New Mexico University placed first.
MISCHIEFEN
Ryba-White said Colorado State's overpowering defense and the Zontals loss of focus were the central reasons for the loss.
"We try to make it a tournament where everyone can have fun, but it can be tough to enjoy yourself and get back up for the games," he said. "That's the last time we will be unfocused from here on out."
"They were up 3-0 in the beginning." Owens said. "It took us awhile to get into the flow, and then we came back to beat them by a lot. They were really surprised."
The Bettys went 2-3 during the weekend and opened the tournament with a come-from-behind victory over the University of Missouri.
That game was followed by a close victory against St. Olaf. The team then lost 10-4 to a team of players from Wichita and Canada. The Bettys' concluded the day with a 9-5 loss to the Reunion Bettys, a squad of KU ultimate alumni.
"When we played the Betts reunion team, we were ahead for
awhile," said Ellen Schieber, Kansas City, Kan., junior. "It was a great pick-me-up."
Team captain Schieber complimented both Rabbit and Owens on their ability to step up in adverse conditions. Owens said Schieber was also instrumental in scoring points.
A hammer throw is an overhead toss typically used against a zone defense.
"Ellen threw a couple hammer for points, which really got the team pepped up." she said.
“It's one of her favorite throws,” Owens said. "It's a hard throw to catch, but we have some good receivers in the end zone."
The Bettys ended the tournament with a loss Sunday morning to the University of Arkansas.
"We were worn out from the four games the day before," Schieber said.
Owens added that lack of focus and team continuity was another issue of the loss.
"The St. Olaf team left early, but four of their girls stayed behind to play with us," she said. "They were really good, but we weren't used to them. It inhibited our play."

BENEFITS FOR STUDENTS
Delivering education
CHRISTINA NEFF/KANSAN
Students take advantage of programs offering tuition financing plus a pavcheck
By Erin Adamson Senior staff writer
Students struggling to balance the pressures of school with the responsibility of supporting themselves may find some relief in companies that offer their employees education assistance in the form of tuition reimbursement.
Sarah Walton, Great Bend sophomore, has made ends meet by working part-time at the UPS distribution center in Lenexa, but working late nights and going to school full-time has been hard. Walton needs the tuition reimbursement and health insurance because she paves for school on her own.
The UPS Earn and Learn program provides up to $1,500 per semester in addition to wages for employees who study at a college, university, trade or technical school. The money can be used for tuition, books and fees. This benefit continues up to $15,000, or ten
semesters of assistance.
For the program, UPS advertises day, twilight and night shift jobs loading and unloading trucks. Benefits include tuition reimbursement, paid vacations and holidays, free medical, dental and vision insurance, and weekends off.
Walton said tuition reimbursement and health benefits drew her to the job
"I got full reimbursement for what I didn't have in scholarships and grants," Walton said.
JoAnn Duncan, human resources recruiter for UPS, said all part-time student employees could take advantage of tuition reimbursement.
"That's available the day they start working." Duncan said.
A student who starts after the semester starts will still receive reimbursement for the whole semester.
Sarah Walton loads packages onto UPS trucks from 10:50 p.m. to 3 a.m., five nights a week. The loading shifts are

only four and a half hours long, but Walton said the physical work late at night made it seem longer.
"It's a lot more taxing than I thought it would be," Walton said.
While the work is strenuous, Walton said she hoped to keep her job until she graduated in two years.
Jeremey Geishlers, Victoria freshman, works the twilight shift at UPS from 4:30 to 9 p.m. Geishlers said tuition reimbursement and benefits attracted him to the job.
This semester, his financial aid paid for school, but Geihsler said that as tuition increased during the next five years he would need the tuition reimbursement to help pay for school.

Emporia sophomore Brandon Cox has kept a positive attitude in the face of challenges he has dealt with in his life, including the death of his father. "Everything happens for a reason," he said. "Roll with the punches and make the most of them."
Student loses father athletic motivation
Every face in the crowd and name in the phonebook has a story behind it. Every week, Kansan writer Adam Pracht tells the story of a randomly selected KU student.
When Brandon Cox picked up the phone last July and listened to his brother's voice, he could tell something was wrong.
By Adam Pracht Kansan staff writer
"That's not a phone call that anybody wants," the Emporia sophomore said. "It just hits you. It takes a while before you realize — I'm not ever going to see him again, and I won't ever hear his voice again. It's just stuff like that upsets me. You think about the last time you saw him and what you talked about."
That's not a
On July 24. 2001, Cox learned that his father died in a car accident Faces in the Crowd
Cox's father, Terry Cox, was killed in a remote area of western Kansas. At an intersection that had a yield sign, Terry continued through. A car that he apparently didn't see slammed into the driver's side of his vehicle, killing him immediately.
Since Terry and Cox's mother were divorced, Cox identified the body and made funeral arrangements himself.
"19 years old, trying to enjoy your summer vacation. It makes you grow up fast," he said.
It was an experience he could never have prepared for.
Cox said the support of family and friends helped him through that difficult time.

A referendum that would allow greeks to vote for off-campus senators and a policy for establishing benefits for homosexual and heterosexual couples were topics of discussion at yesterday's informal Student Senate debates.
After rain delayed the debates on Monday, the four coalitions had one last chance to present their platforms at Wescoe Beach yesterday before elec-
westside beach yelations today and tomorrow.
The coalitions gave opening statements, which were followed by a question-and-answer session with the

audience and closing statements.
Delta Force was represented by Karen Keith, Tulsa, Okla., junior for president, Kit Brauer, Denver sophomore for vice president and Jason Ranard, Grand Island, Neb., freshman for Nunemaker senator.
Jonathan Ng. Leawood junior for president, Loren Malone, Senatoria, Miss., junior for vice president and Mark Dupree, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore for Nunemaker senator represented KUnited.
Amelia Earhart, Downey, Calif., freshman, was the only representative of the Vision coalition. The Nunemaker senator candidate thanked the commission for allowing the coalition to be represented even though its presidential and vice presidential candidates were disqualified.
The SMILE coalition did not send a representative to the debates.
One of the issues raised at the debate was referendum B on the ballot that would allow fraternity and sorority members to vote for seats designated for off-campus housing.
Malone said that KUnited was in favor of the measure because those in greek housing were only represented through Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic
Polling sites for today and tomorrow's Student Senate elections will be in the following campus buildings:

■ Oliver Hall 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. today.
VOTE
Association senators. Malone said that those organizations did not directly represent the students in greek housing.
Earhart for the Vision coalition said that Greek housing should be better represented but not through the off-campus housing positions because they had different issues and concerns.
Brauer for Delta Force said that he did not think there was a problem with under representation of greeks because one third of Senate lived in greek housing.
KUnited and Vision coalition were asked if they would support Delta Force's Domestic Partnership Policy. The policy would give same-sex couples the same benefits as heterosexual couples at the University.
Earlhard for Vision Coalition said that even though the platform was not in its party platform, the coalition would support the proposal and work with Delta Force senators.
Ng for KUnited said that his coalition supported the policy. He also said he appreciated the opportunity to answer what he called "unfounded and slanderous" rumors that members of KUnited were homophobic.

The KU mock trial team finished ninth last weekend at a national competition in Des Moines, Iowa.
The team competed on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Katie Walker, Leavenworth freshman and team member, said the groups competed against each other in a mock trial as members acted out a case.
Walker said the fictional case dealt with a secretary who murdered her former boss. Walker said she was surprised the team finished in the top 10 of the competition.
"We didn't place high enough in regionals to go,but we got a discretionary bid that allowed us to go to nationals," she said.
Walker said that, because the Midwest region was so tough, the team was given a chance to go to Minnesota in March for the semi-finals.
The team finished second in the semi-
finals and advanced to the finals.
The team, which consists of seven members, finished ninth out of about 60 teams, she said.

Mike Gilligan
Mike Wellman, Adams Alumni Center director, said the center rarely had problems with vandalism.
"I've been here 18 years, and we've never had anyone behave in any unbecoming way. It's a first," he said. "We've always been thankful that students who come are always well behaved."
The center cleaned the areas during the weekend, but some need for painting and touch-up work remains.
"We work very hard to keep this building nice for everyone," Wellman said. "We were just disappointed that it happened."
No one has been charged with the crime, said Maj. Chris Keary, assistant director of the KU Public Safety Office.

Scholarships offered to non-trad students
A non-traditional leadership scholarship is being offered through the Student Development Center. Four $1,000 scholarships will be awarded from the Student Senate funds to non-traditional undergraduates next semester. Students must be enrolled in minimum of nine hours for Fall 2002.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN = 3A
University hopes to teach men about sexism, violence
By Meredith Carr Kansan staff writer
Sex, relationships, communication and respect. These are just a few of the topics David Braham talks about with men.
Braham, a 2001 sociology graduate, is the men's outreach coordinator for the University of Kansas. Braham's job as men's outreach coordinator is to help the male population understand different University resources, such as volunteering and counseling, that are available to them.
This is the first time this job has existed at the University. It was created earlier this year by the Campus Coalition for Men, a committee of about 30 male administrators and faculty members from different areas of the the University. They decided to create Braham's position after listening to a speaker, Jackson Katz, talk about the view of men in society and the way the media portray the male sex. Katz is an anti-sexist male activist, who founded MVP Strategies an organization that provides gender violence prevention training to educational institutions.
The Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center and the Student Development Center oversee the position. The Center already has a program similar to the men's outreach coordinator, and with the two programs students can learn more about the opposite sex as well as gender issues.
Marshall Jackson, associate director of the Student Development Center, said Braham's job would help in promoting advocacy for women.
Braham said he had already spoken to different campus groups, such as fraternities and
"I'm not a rape expert, but I do know how, through certain behaviors, becoming violent is
learned.

residence halls, about issues involving healthy relationships and sexism in the media, but he's ready to talk to more students.
"I'm ready to walk into a fraternity, dorm, or scholarship hall, and talk to them about what I know," he said.
Braham said one of his main objectives as the men's outreach coordinator was to create good connections and reputations for the male population both on and off campus. Braham also wants to help men understand their behaviors.
Brahman has talked to men about controversial issues in relationships such as rape.
"I'm not a rape expert, but I do know how, through certain behaviors, becoming violent is learned," he said.
Kathy Rose-Mocky, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center said she hoped to continue this year's progress into next year.
"We're pleased right now to have a position like this," Rose-Mockry said.
She said she hoped to add other speakers beside Braham to the program in the future.
FACES
Jacob Spence, Wichita sophomore, was one friend that was there for Cox.

"He went through it a lot better than I would have," Spence said.
Cox said his father was his friend as well as his inspiration. He described him as an outgoing and well-liked person.
"He was always wanting to help somebody, making somebody laugh," he said. "He was just one of those guys that everybody was like, 'Where is he at? We need him to have a good time.'"
Cox said his father was also a sports fan, especially the Jayhawks. He said the biggest reason he played football in high school and his first year at the University of Kansas was the pride that he saw his father take in him as an athlete.
Cox's uncle Jerry Cox said
Tery taught his sons life lessons
"My dad was always big about my health," he said. "He told me at times I should stop playing, but I felt like I still could."
Football began to take a toll on Cox's body, though. Repeated impacts created bone and cartilage chips and strained tendons in his shoulders that caused him tremendous pain.
"He tried to teach his boys, go after what you want, and you don'tget it without working hard and practicing hard."
He had surgery on his right arm, then his left. But Cox still wanted to keep playing.
Cox's father died just before he was to go in for a second surgery on his left arm. He said the combination of his father's death and his surgery made him decide to let football go to save his health.
"I could see he really liked watching me play," Cox said. "Now after three shoulder surgeries and him not around, I just

really don't have any motivation to play anymore."
Cox misses his father and wishes he could still play football, he said. But he knows that if his father were alive today, he would encourage him to make the same decision, Cox said.
Cox is now concentrating on obtaining a communications degree and plans to transfer to Arizona State University after this semester to be closer to his mother, he said.
mother, he said.
"Any time something like that happens to somebody close that you love, it totally changes your outlook on life," he said.
"You learn not to sweat small stuff. You don't stress out about little things. You really appreciate those that you care about. There's no warning of when they could be here or gone."

BENEFITS
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
While he didn't use the tuition reimbursement this semester, Geihlsler said he took advantage of a loan through UPS to buy a personal computer. As part of the Earn and Learn program, UPS offers loans of up to $8,000 to students and the company will help repay the loans.
company that offers students education assistance is Federal Express. Pam Roberson, FedEx spokeswoman, said the company offered tuition assistance of up to $3,500 per calendar year for permanent full-time and part-time employees. A local FedEx center is at 10815 W 78th St., Shawnee Mission.
Assistance is for students working toward a first undergraduate degree at an accredited institution or for a second undergraduate or graduate degree that FedEx managers determine to be relevant to the company. Roberson said that 8,500 FedEx employees had taken advantage of education assistance in 2001.

Product purported to 'zap' annoying telemarketing calls
They have your name, they have your number, and they're going to call you. Unless you can stop them.
Jason Capps, Kansas City, Mo., graduate student, said he
Telemarketers hocking everything from credit cards to coffee are a constant annoyance to many KU students. But a product called Telezapper could make being on a telemarketer's call list a thing of the past.
The Telezapper works by fooling the computer into thinking the phone number it dialed has been disconnected. The computer records this information, and over time the person's number will be eliminated from call lists.
It doesn't affect calls dialed by hand.
received an average of three telemarketing calls a week, usually from credit card companies.
Capps said he usually hung up on telemarkers and had asked to be taken off calling lists before, but didn't think either technique worked.
"I really wish they wouldn't call me," he said. "They waste my time."
Karen Giger, Cottonwood Falls freshman, said she received about six telemarketing calls a week. She said she would be interested in anything that would get telemarketers off her back.
Telezappers are sold at Lawrence stores including WalMart, Walgreens and Radioshack.
Susan Streit, who works in the Wal-Mart electronics section, said her store didn't sell very many of the devices.
"They're pretty expensive," she said. "I would buy one if they were cheaper. I think that's how a lot of people feel."
Wal-Mart sells Telezappers for $44.88.The devices are $50 at Walgreens and $49 at Radio Shack.
Nathan Carnes, Walgreens manager, said his store didn't sell many Telezappers either.
many teachers applaud. "I don't think the cost is the issue, though," he said. "I just think it's something people don't really know about yet."
Neither Capps nor Giger had heard about the Telezapper. Both said the cost was not high enough to outrule purchasing the product.
However, for students who don't want to spend $50 on the Telezapper, there is a free way to
Telezappers have been on the market since before Christmas.
use the same technology.
K. Alan Carlton, a professional building contractor from Fort Worth, Texas, owns a Web site that explains how to deal with telemarketers.
According to Carlton, people can beat the telemarketer's computers by playing the three tones from the beginning of AT &T's disconnected phone message.
The catch to Carlton's plan is that the tones must be taped onto the beginning of answering machine messages, and people without caller I.D. will have to wait for the answering machine to pick up every call.
He said the effect would be the same as that of buying a Telezapper.
Giger said she saw a problem with Carlton's suggestion.
Carlton's Web site,
www.flash.net/~carlton2/tele-
mark.html, allows people to
download the tones for free.
"I get a lot of other messages during the day. I think it would just confuse my friends," she said.
Dixie Williford, manager of General Ion Solutions, a Lawrence telemarketing firm, said she knew of another problem with the device.
"It probably works for companies with computer dialers," she said. "But we manually dial all our calls, so it wouldn't have any effect on us."
People wanting to avoid telemarketers can also simply ask to be placed on a company's do-not-call list, a right granted by the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991.

OPINION
WEDNESDAY,APRIL10,2002
POINT-COUNTERPOINT
Alcohol would benefit Union provide safe drinking option
1 Boulevard. It is known as a local landmark and borders campus, making it a popular place to unwind after classes.
This bar is as close as they come to campus. But next semester offers the possibility to let loose within campus boundaries.
There has been talk of serving alcohol in the renovated Jaybowl in the Kansas Union. From both a profit and a safety standpoint, the Kansas Union could not make a smarter move.
KU is a dry campus, but there is a small window for exceptions. The administration allows alcohol at Cancellor Hemenway's house, the Alumni Center and at Memorial Stadium before home football games.
football games.
With the Jaybowl situated on the bus systems' routes and at a location that is within walking distance of many students' homes, it is a safe option for those who want a night out without worrying about a driver.
The profits that serving alcohol would bring in are impossible to estimate, but it could be perceived that making the Jaybowl into a more bar-like atmosphere would bring in more people. This, in turn, will bring a larger, more diverse group to the Kansas
Union and improve business. This would also turn the Jaybowl into a rental option for parties.
No one wants to risk this campus' emphasis on academics, so the Jaybowl could simply not serve
beer during daytime beers. If the Jaybowl served alcohol after campus office hours, it would not encourage students to drink between classes.
Giving students the option of an oncampus bar has great potential, not only for profits, but also for drawing more attention to the Kansas Union. Beer in the Jaybowl would also provide a safe atmosphere for students to drink

most recent talk is for the University to approve the serving of alcohol at the Jaybowl once it is remodeled.
If approved, this decision would greatly undermine the University of Kansas. As an academic institution, alcohol does not belong in the Kansas Union where classes convene, academic conferences are held and guest lecturers speak.
Pernaps the Jaybowl would attract more students and make more profits if beer were to be served there. But Mike Fine, recreations coordinator for the Kansas Memorial Union, said that when beer was served at the Jaybowl.

sale of alcohol at a minimum.
The problems the task force faced in 1997 have not disappeared in 2002. Students are still abusing alcohol and people are still hurt by the effects of drinking. Until students can maturely manage alcohol, why should a decision that was so carefully considered be overturned after just five short years?
turned after just a short time. If students want to relax and unwind after a long day of class, they can do so at the many bars that are located within a couple blocks of the Union. We must always remember that the Union is a place for students, but more importantly it is a part of a larger academic institution dedicated to higher education.
Amy Potter dissenting.
PERSPECTIVE
What do you want from your student newspaper?
What does The University Daily Kansan mean to you? Sure, you might pick up the paper now and then to read Free for All or fiddle with the crossword. But what does it mean? What values does it represent? What is its relevance to your daily life?
I ask these questions because they're questions I wonder about. As I talk with members of student groups and respond to e-mails, it's become clear to me that the Kansan has a frustratingly nebulous job. According to its own masthead, the Kansan is the "student newspaper" of the campus, which suggests it represents KU students. But how can a newspaper do that? How can a single publication adequately represent the thoughts and
emotions, activities and advocacy, of more than 20,000 people?
It's a difficult question.
It's a unfortunate question this week, when the Kansan devotes much space and energy to covering Student Senate elections. The elections mean a lot to many students — to these people the campus is defined by student politics.
To many other students, the elections mean little. Their version of the KU campus is defined by other issues. Activism, perhaps. Sports. The club scene.
With so many different versions of campus to cover, this "student newspaper" has an elephantine task.
In the last few weeks, I've been told the Kansan is "irrelevant." I've been

address them. Yet as the years go by and newspaper circulations across the country continue to decline, the questions remain.
To some, the Kansan will never be relevant. Simple as that. The paper can't (and shouldn't) be turned into an extremist journal. Sure, we can reflect liberal and conservative viewpoints. But changing into something wholly different would betray our mission to provide news to as many students on campus as possible.

Yet I wonder about all the other students. I wonder about the groups who see all the different versions of campus mentioned above. I wonder about being relevant — because we so hard here to

House votes to keep open prisons Graves wanted closed
The Associated Press
The House voted overwhelmingly yesterday to save five minimum-security prisons that Gov. Bill Graves targeted for closing to save the state money.
On a 100-20 vote, House members added an amendment to a bill outlining about $50 million in construction and repair projects for the state's next fiscal year, which begins July 1. The institutions Graves targeted are prison units in Osawatomie, Stockton, Toronto and separate conservation camps for male and female offenders in Oswego.
House members continued to debate the capital improvements bill, which funds most of the building projects separately from general government operations. The Senate planned to take up it own capital improvement bill yesterday.
The House's action on prisons would restore about $5.6 million to the Department of Corrections budget for the next fiscal year. Graves proposed closing the five prisons because he and legislators must eliminate a projected $700 million gap between expected revenues and required spending over the next 15 months.
Graves argued that even though the state's prison population continues to increase, the Department of Corrections actually has a surplus of minimum-security space. Closing the five institutions would cost the state 486 beds.
But Rep. Doug Gatewood, D-Columbus, who offered the amendment to keep the prisons open, and supporters of his plan argued that the state would need the space eventually.
Rep. Jene Vickrey, R-Louisburg, said: "If we close these facilities, we're going to be back here next year building facilities. It doesn't make long-term sense."
But Rep. Joann Pottorff, R-Wichita, asked Gatewood where the state would find the money to keep the prisons open.
"Gatewood replied: 'We'll figure that out later."
Quadruple birth yields two sets of twin babies
The Associated Press
WICHITA — Genetic testing confirmed yesterday that quadruplets born to a Kansas mother were indeed two sets of spontaneous identical twins — an event so rare that her doctor says the odds of it happening are one-in-25 million.
happening here. Christina Tetrick, 28, left Wesley Medical Center yesterday, and her baby boys are doing well and should be home by mid-May.
Their father, Pat Tetrick, 34, may not be able to greet them. As a member of the Army Reserve, he's awaiting deployment overseas to assist the war on terrorism.
As she prepared to leave the hospital, Christina Tetrick said her husband could have probably won a hardship release from his military obligations, but they decided together that he should serve.
"I just think of the women that have lost their husbands forever, and the families that have lost their dads forever," she said, "and sending mine away to help bring those people to justice is a very small price."
His unit was also activated in 1990 for the Gulf War, and again in 1997 for Operation Joint Guard in the Balkans.
All of Christina's family lives in St. Louis, and her mother cannot stay long to help because her husband is seriously ill. Patrick's family lives in Wichita.
"Right now, I just can't get over being completely ecstatic. All the boys are healthy," she said. "If postpartum depression is going to be a part of it, I'm sure it wouldn't happen until Pat has to go back. I'm usually a pretty upbeat person."
Yesterday, DNA testing of the quadruplets confirmed that Peyton Michael and Parker Adrian are identical twins, as are Camden Louis and Christian Steven.
In the last three generations on her side of the family, relatives have counted six sets of twins, five of them identical. Going back four generations on her side, they have found 11 sets of twins.
The Tetricks were not using fertility drugs.
Dr. Margaret H. O'Hara told reporters after the birth that the chances of two pairs of identical twins by a single pregnancy is 1-in-25 million.
a single pregnancy The quadruplets' birth Friday was overshadowed in part by the birth the following day of sextuplets at another Wichita hospital.
But the advertising agency the Tetricks hired to help them find corporate sponsors to help meet the family's new financial burden said there was interest in the quadruplets even before the sextuplets.
"We are just very happy all the babies are doing well," said Jerry Pierce of Lottridge Advertising.
Girl's body found in car trunk
The Associated Press
ROELAND PARK — A 19-year-old Roeland Park man is expected to be charged today in the death of a high school student whose body was found in the trunk of his car, police said.
The victim was Amanda Sharp, 17, of Shawnee, who was a student at Shawnee Mission North High School, said Johnson County Sheriff's Captain Vince Werkowitch.
Werkowitch said investigators
were still trying to determine the relationship between the two, and he declined to say how Sharp died. Investigators would not say how the informant knew about the crime, nor what a possible motive may have been.
Officers found Sharp's body in the trunk of the suspect's parents' car about three hours after he arrived at his family's home Friday night. Investigators went to the home after they got a tip that the man might have killed a girl.
Sharp had missed all her classes Monday. Detectives spent much of the day looking for the suspect because they were relatively certain the girl's body was in his car and they did not want to give anyone time to hide the body during the night. The search ended when the man pulled up to his family's house about 7 p.m.
"We're real lucky that we had a storyteller that came forward quickly and it fell together so well." Werkowitch said.
Sixteen birds poisoned, found dead
The Associated Press
PITTSBURG — More than a dozen birds, including some federally protected species, were killed at a public park after they ate strychnine-laced milo, authorities said.
Personnel from the Pittsburg State University Nature Research Center collected a dozen dead birds Sunday and four more on Monday from Lakeside Park, totaling 16 dead animals.
Joey Williams, director of the center, performed preliminary autopsies and discovered grain in
the birds' craws, A Pittsburg veterinarian confirmed the grain was laced with strychnine, which is available at feed and grain stores and is generally used to control moles and gophers.
Williams said six crackles, a mourning dove, a mallard duck and a Canada goose were killed. Those are all federally protected species, which means whoever laced the milo could be fined up to $10,000 and get up to a year in a federal prison for each bird.
The killings of the domestic ducks and geese maintained by the city could be prosecuted as
misdemeanors under the city's cruelty to animals ordinance. The penalty is a fine of up to $100 per animal. Williams said some of the deaths could also fall under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which will get a copy of the police report.
Williams said he suspected bored kids were responsible, but he doesn't expect to know unless someone offered a reward for information.
"I would love to see somebody at least get caught for it ... make them think twice," he said.

Preliminary plans for WTC area, museum, memorial unveiled
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The agency overseeing the rebuilding of the World Trade Center area offered a plan yesterday to turn it into a pedestrian-friendly hub of offices and homes, with a "museum of freedom and remembrance" and a memorial chosen by an international competition.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg also filled four vacancies on the 16-member panel but outraged some groups by not appointing relatives of any of the trade center victims.
"I was completely shocked. Unfortunately I think we all just assumed that the right thing would have been done," said Jennie Farrell, chairwoman of Give Your Voice, which she said represents about 1,000 families of victims. Her brother, James Cartier, died in the attack.
The redevelopment plan is just a rough blueprint and will go through months if not years of
discussions and revisions.
The early stages of the memorial planning process should begin by the summer, the agency's lead planner said.
"These are things that have to come early on because they will determine everything else," said Alexander Garvin, the Lower Manhattan Development Corp.'s vice president for planning, design and development.
The plan envisions Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty, the New York Stock Exchange and the World Trade Center memorial as key elements of a regional "Freedom Park" that could be marketed and operated as a single destination. It would feature a "museum of freedom and remembrance."
To make lower Manhattan a more pedestrian-friendly area, streets could be depressed or elevated.
The corporation also moved yesterday to expand its program
of incentives for New Yorkers to move and stay downtown.
Residents of Chinatown, Little Italy and parts of the Lower East Side could receive $1,000 one-time subsidies under the $277 million plan approved at the corporation's meeting.
Also under the expanded incentives, households with children in the blocks immediately surrounding the trade center site could get a separate, $1,500 bonus to encourage families to live in lower Manhattan.
Under previously announced incentives, all people living around the site could get as much as $12,000 over two years in rent or mortgage assistance.
The incentive plan is subject to approval by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The city-state corporation is charged with overseeing downtown redevelopment and the distribution of about $2 billion in federal aid.
Homeless man charged in charity scam
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Twenty-five people were charged yesterday with using a variety of schemes to steal nearly $150,000 from charities helping victims of the World Trade Center attack.
Since the Sept. 11 attacks, 76 people have been charged with similar scams.
Those charged included Woodrow Flemming, a 48-year-old homeless man who allegedly hired 13 other homeless people to help him steal more than $100,000 from the Red Cross and another charity called Safe Horizon. Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau said.
The other 11 defendants included three city employees and a Safe Horizon employee. They are accused of stealing relief money from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Red Cross and Safe Horizon.
Flemming allegedly applied for benefits last October, telling the charities he had lost his vending table near the trade center because of the attacks, Morgenthau said.
A fake W-2 tax form and letter from a lawyer, full of bad grammar and misspelled words, verified that he sold CDs, videos, sunglasses and other items at that site, Morgenthau said. He said Safe Horizon gave Flemming $5,766, and the Red Cross gave him $5,970.
Flemming's alleged recruits applied for benefits as workers at his vending table, Morgenthau said. They allegedly collected checks for $3,000 to $6,645, and Flemming kicked back a small
part — $100 to $1,100 — to the homeless men and women.
Sale Horizon employee Marcel Hartsfield, 31, is accused of stealing nine blank checks from her employer and giving them to friends to cash.
Two of the city employees were secretaries at the Housing Authority. Morgenthau said they falsely claimed they lost their $25,000-a-year jobs after the attacks. The third city employee, an inspector with the Department of Buildings, claimed the attacks drove him out of his Battery Park City home, Morgenthau said.
The defendants were charged variously with grand larceny, attempted grand larceny, forgery, possession of a forged instrument or offering a false instrument for filing.

Space shuttle to deliver first framework to space station
The Associated Press
Atlantis is hauling a 44-footlong, 141/2-foot-wide aluminum girder that is full of plumbing and wiring and, with 475,000 parts, ranks right behind the space station laboratory in terms of complexity.
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — With every lap around Earth, space shuttle Atlantis drew closer to the international space station yesterday to deliver the first piece of a framework that ultimately will outstretch a football field.
The three men who have been living on the space station since December awaited their first guests, due today. They described Atlantis as a "hot star on our tail."
"It takes up pretty much the whole payload bay," astronaut Ellen Ochoa said. "You just look out and you think, 'Wow, it looks beautiful, and we can't wait to get started on all the operations.' We're just raring to go."
Ochoa will use the space station's robot arm to attach the girder to the 240-mile-high outpost on Thursday. Then two teams of spacewalkers will take turns going out to hook everything up.
One of those spacewalkers is Jerry Ross, who already holds the U.S. spacewalking record, with seven outings. He will rack up two more on this mission.
On Monday, Ross, an astronaut for 22 years, became the first person to fly in space seven times.
On his previous shuttle flight, in 1998, Ross helped strap together the first two rooms of the space station. The station has since expanded to five rooms, with a total mass of about 300,000 pounds. The girder being delivered by Atlantis' seven astronauts will add 27,000 pounds.
The $600 million girder will serve as the backbone for a framework that eventually will extend 356 feet and support a collection of giant solar wings and radiators. A $190 million railcar and track already are attached to the girder and will be used to transport the space station's robot arm and cargo from one end of the complex to the other.
Attorney charged with aiding terrorist group
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — An attorney and three other people were indicted yesterday on charges they helped an Islamic militant imprisoned in the United States communicate with his followers in Egypt.
The indictment accuses the defendants of supporting the Egyptian-based terrorist organization known as the Islamic Group by passing messages "to and from the imprisoned Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman."
Among the four is Lynne Stewart, a lawyer for the sheik. The indictment charges that the unlawful communications with the sheik happened during prison visits and attorney telephone calls involving Stewart and Mohammed Yousry, an Arabic translator who was also charged.
Attorney General John Ashcroft said the Islamic Group had "a message of hate that is now tragically familiar to Americans."
He said the others charged as Ahmed
Abdel Sattar, a Staten Island man described as a "surrogate" for Abdel-Rahman; and Yassir Al-Sirri, the former head of the London-based Islamic Observation Center. AlSirri was charged with "facilitating communications among Islamic Group members and providing financing for their activities."
Ashcroft said Rahman allegedly used communications with Stewart, translated by Youssir, to pass messages to and receive messages from Sattar, Al-Siri and other Islamic Group members.
Stewart, Sattar and Yousry were all in federal custody. Al-Sirri was in custody in the United Kingdom.
The attorney general announced that the Justice Department had, for the first time, invoked the authority to monitor communications between Abdel-Rahman and his attorneyvs.
Abdel-Rahman, 63, is serving a life sentence in the United States for conspiring to assassinate Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and for blowing up five New York City landmarks in the 1990s.
"The sheik is a person whose leadership is substantial in the community of terrorists," he said. He added that the indictment didn't allege there were any conversations about the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
the Sept. 14 terrorist. The indictment alleges the sheik in October 2000 issued an edict titled "Fatwah Mandating the Bloodshed of Israelis Everywhere," which called on "brother scholars everywhere in the Muslim world to do their part and issue an unanimous fatwah (edict) that urges the Muslim nation to fight the Jews and kill them wherever they are."
Stewart was arrested by federal agents yesterday morning, according to her lawyer, Susan Tipograph. A woman answering the phone in Stewart's office said FBI agents with a search warrant arrived at about 11:30 a.m. The four-story building that houses Stewart's offices was locked and a New York police officer stood guard outside.
Former top aide charged in campaign scandal
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Gov. George Ryan's campaign committee and a former top aide pleaded innocent yesterday to racketeering charges stemming from a federal investigation into a licenses-forbribes scheme that operated when Ryan was secretary of state.
Scott Fawell, 44, Ryan's former campaign manager and chief of staff in the secretary of
state's office, is accused of using state employees and money to do campaign work.
The plea on behalf of the campaign was entered by attorney Mark Flessner, who objected when federal prosecutor Patrick Collins suggested the law firm be removed from the case because of a conflict of interest.
He said he would file a motion Monday laying out specifics.
The firm has represented Citizens for Ryan, the Illinois secrea
tary of state's office and dozens of state employees and campaign workers who have become entangled in the scandal.
Prosecutors also want Ryan's multimillion-dollar campaign fund frozen to make sure there is money left to pay the $1 million forfeiture they are seeking as part of the case. A federal judge gave the two sides until May 9 to work something out.
Last week's indictment was the biggest to come out of the
federal government's four-year investigation.
The Republican governor has not been charged with any wrongdoing but decided not to seek a second term as the scandal grew.
Richard Juliano, 34, the second-ranking member of Ryan's 1998 campaign for governor, is charged with mail fraud and is cooperating with prosecutors. His attorney said Juliano will plea guilty next week.
Jurors in Traficant corruption trial fail to reach verdict after second day
The Associated Presse
CLEVELAND —Jurors failed to reach a verdict yesterday after deliberating a second day in the corruption trial of Rep. James A. Traficant Jr.
Deliberations were scheduled to resume tomorrow. The blustery, nine-term congressman declared in closing
arguments Monday: "There's not one damn bit of evidence that anybody gave me any money."
But federal prosecutor Craig Morford disputed the claim and described a long list of bribes, gifts and favors that Traficant is accused of taking.
The Democrat, known for his arm-waving tirades on the
House floor against the IRS and the FBI, is accused of taking kickbacks from staff members and accepting gifts and free labor from businessmen in exchange for his political help. He also is accused of filing false tax returns.
Traficant, who defended himself in the trial though he is not a lawyer, suggested during closing
arguments that he was the victim of a government vendetta.
"Congress has been passing laws. They have given the IRS and FBI too damn much power," he said.
Morfond retorted that Traficant "is the government."
"If the government's so bad, what's he been doing for the last 18 years?" Morford said.
Enron auditor pleads guilty to obstructing justice
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — The Arthur Andersen auditor who oversaw Enron's books pleaded guilty yesterday to ordering the shredding of Enron documents and agreed to cooperate with prosecutors in a deal that could break the scandal wide open.
Former partner David B. Duncan pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice, admitting he tried to thwart an Enron investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
"Documents were in fact destroyed so that they would not be available to the SEC," he told U.S. District Judge Melinda Harmon, reading from a statement.
He is believed to be the first person in the Enron case to strike a deal with federal prosecutors.
He had no comment as he left the courthouse. His attorney, Sam Seymour, said: "He's continuing his cooperation, as we've said all along."
the charge carries up to 10 years in prison and hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines. Duncan remains free until his sentencing on Aug. 26.
Duncan was fired by Andersen after the accounting firm acknowledged the large-scale destruction of documents and deletion of computer files related to the collapse of the energy giant, whose bankruptcy cost thousands of employees their jobs and, in many cases, their life savings.
Andersen spokesman Patrick Dorton declined comment on Duncan's plea.
Duncan could prove crucial in enabling prosecutors to build a case against Enron.
Under the plea bargain, Duncan is immune to any further prosecution related to the Enron case as long as he fully cooperates with federal authorities — which could include testimony at future trials and agrees not to sell his story or otherwise profit from the debacle.
As the senior auditor in charge of the Enron account, he would presumably have knowledge of the complex web of partnerships used by the company to keep millions of dollars in debt off its books.
In court, Duncan described how he ordered Andersen employees on Oct. 21 to destroy certain documents two days after he learned that the SEC was investigating Enron.
"I also personally destroyed such documents," Duncan told the judge. "I accept that my conduct violated federal law."
Prosecutors said the shredding occurred between Oct. 23 and Nov. 9. The SEC notified Andersen on Nov. 8 that it would subpoena documents related the firm's work on Enron.
A grand jury indicted Andersen on March 7 on a charge of obstructing justice, accusing the firm of destroying "tons of paper" at offices worldwide and deleting enormous numbers of computer files on its Enron audits. At times, the government said, the destruction was so frenetic that employees worked overtime and shredding machines could not keep up.
The indictment was unsealed March 14. Andersen has pleaded innocent, and a trial is set for May 6. In the meantime, large numbers of Andersen clients are dropping the firm, and the company is struggling to save itself.

13 killed, nine wounded from Palestinian ambush
The Associated Press
JENIN, West Bank — Palestinians ambushed Israeli troops in the cramped quarters of a West Bank refugee camp yesterday, setting off a suicide bomb trap in a narrow alley and firing on soldiers in a courtyard, the military said. Thirteen Israelis were killed, the biggest blow to the army in its West Bank offensive.
The carefully planned double attack in the Jenin refugee camp also wounded nine Israeli soldiers. A military spokesman said a rapid series of blasts went off in the alley — one of them detonated by a suicide bomber — and collapsed part of a building on several soldiers.
"This is a battle for survival of the Jewish people, for survival of the state of Israel," Sharon said on Israel TV.
There were signs, however, that U.S. efforts were having an effect. Earlier yesterday, Israel pulled out of Tulkarem and Qalqiliya, two of six Palestinian towns it has occupied; troops remained in Nablus, Bethlehem, Jenin and Ramallah and several villages.
Defying U.S. demands that Israel's 12-day-old campaign wrap up without delay, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon vowed "Operation Defensive Shield" will go on until it fulfills its mission — "the destruction of the infrastructure of the terror groups."
The Jenin camp in the northern West Bank, home to more than 13,000 Palestinians, has been the site of the most intense fighting of the Israeli assault, with gunmen inside battling Israeli soldiers for the past week. All but three of Israel's casualties in the campaign have occurred in the camp.
Israel launched its offensive on March 29 to crush militias after a series of Palestinian suicide bombings. At least 124 Palestinians and 25 Israeli soldiers have been confirmed killed during the incursion, according to Palestinian medics and the Israeli army. The toll was expected to rise; there were reports that dead Palestinians had not been brought out of some areas, especially in the Jenin camp.
Aside from the deaths in Jenin camp, an Israeli soldier was killed yesterday in the city of Nablus, though the military said it may have been by errant Israeli fire.
Secretary of State Colin Powell, due to arrive in Israel late tomorrow, said he was optimistic his mission could bring a truce and lead to negotiations. Speaking in Cairo, Powell said he would meet Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat as well as Sharon and said the U.S. was willing to deploy observers to monitor any cease-fire.
Israel had said it would keep Arafat isolated in the Ramallah offices where he has been confined by troops since the West Bank campaign began. But Israeli officials said yesterday they would not prevent Powell
from meeting the Palestinian leader.
Iraq alone in halting oil exports
The Associated Press
LONDON — Oil prices retreated yesterday as Iran and Libya held back from joining Iraq's suspension of crude shipments to countries allied with Israel.
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries Secretary-general Ali Rodriguez said the oil producers' group was opposed to an oil embargo, and some analysts expected Saudi Arabia and other moderate OPEC members to quietly boost their output to cover any serious shortfall in global supplies.
The incentive of higher oil prices might encourage non-OPEC producers such as Russia and Mexico to do the same, analysts said.
Signs of a partial Israeli withdrawal from Palestinian territories also helped to calm futures markets, a day after Iraq's cutoff triggered a 6 percent surge in prices. Markets seemed initially
The European Union's head office said it was convening a special meeting later this week to discuss rising oil prices. However, the European Commission played down fears of a looming world fuel emergency.
"We do not consider we are in a situation of crisis," EU Energy Commission spokesman Gilles Gantelet told reporters in Brussels, Belgium.
Prices for May contracts of Brent crude futures slipped by 92 cents a barrel to $26.10 in late trading in London. May contracts of light, sweet crude eased 71 cents lower to $25.83 a barrel in New York.
Israel withdrew yesterday, under heavy U.S. pressure, from two Palestinian towns, although its soldiers entered other areas of the West Bank. Secretary of State Colin Powell's planned visit to Israel late tomorrow
added to a perception that the United States was becoming more involved to try to secure a cease-fire in the Middle East, home to two-thirds of the world's proven oil reserves.
"That is the key theme of the next few days; what kind of news can we expect to see out of the West Bank," said Hans Redeker, head of global currency research for BNP Paribas.
Iraqi President Saddam Hussein announced Monday he was halting oil exports for 50 days or until Israel withdrew from the territories. A political dispute at Venezuela's state-run oil company exacerbated the turmoil.
Markets took comfort in the absence of any action or statement from Iran, the second-largest producer in OPEC, in support of Iraq's embargo. Iran, together with Libya, had earlier expressed sympathy for the idea of using oil as a weapon against Israel's allies, chiefly the United States.
U.S. hopes meeting can bring peace
The Associated Press
Powell said he was optimistic his intensive round of meetings could lead to negotiations to create a Palestinian state alongside Israel.
CAIRO, Egypt — Secretary of State Colin Powell said yesterday he would meet with Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat as well as Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon this week, and he offered U.S. observers to monitor a truce he hoped to broker.
"Time is of the essence" for ending Middle East violence, Powell said after meeting with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. He is seeking greater Arab participation in the peace process as well as an immediate end to Israel's military offensive.
It was the first time Powell had said expressly that he would meet Arafat during his trip to Israel, where he arrives tomorrow night and plans talks with both sides through the weekend.
The Palestinian leader has been isolated by Israeli forces in his headquarters in the West Bank city of Ramallah. Israel said it wouldn't stop the Powell-Arafat meeting.
Earlier, Powell had hedged, suggesting he would meet with Arafat only "if circumstances permit."
Powell said he had spoken to Sharon yesterday and the Israeli had reiterated "his commitment to bring this to an end as quick as he can." Powell praised Israel for beginning to withdraw troops from Palestinian areas but noted fighting persisted.
working to fill in the details of a U.S. vision for a permanent peace. Powell said political objectives must be pursued alongside talks to end the current violence. He told the Arabs they must acknowledge Israel's rights.
In another bid to enhance the U.S. role in the region, Powell said the Bush administration was prepared to help monitor ceasefire with American observers.
"That would help with the confidence building, the restoring of trust between the two sides, get us back to where we were a few years ago," Powell said.

COMMENTARY
Doug Pacey dpacey@kansan.com
If Gooden goes he will have left mark at Kansas
Drew Gooden has a big decision to make. He knows it, Roy Williams knows it, you know it and even the dizzy nature boy in your Math 002 class who doesn't know the difference between a free throw and a foul ball knows it.
The choice between jumping to the NBA Draft or staying for his senior season at Kansas is the biggest quandary the junior forward has faced in his 20-year life. But wouldn't we all love to be in the All-American's high-tops with a choice between millions of dollars guaranteed or being part of what might be the best Kansas team in school history next year?
Sure beats flipping a coin to decide what history class to take to fulfill your humanities requirement for graduation.
In all seriousness, though, this is a life-altering decision for Gooden and he will surely take the necessary steps before he announces what he will do. He'll meet with Williams, if he already hasn't, and go over the NBA general managers and scouts have sent Kansas' coach about the tantalizingly talented forward and he'll sit down with his two sets of parents for a long talk about his future.
Everybody and their neighbor will give Gooden their two-cents worth this week. Hardcore Jayhawk fans will beg him to stay and lead Kansas to a national championship, while others will tell Gooden to be sensible and take the cash.
Instead of pleading with the superstar to stay or telling him to take the money and run, let Gooden make the decision by himself and, whatever the outcome, remember him for what he did at Kansas.
Whether it was when Gooden said "the whole front of my grill went numb" after he accidentally cut a Texas Tech player's head with his teeth or explaining the finer points of his "Rich-Town Funk Dunk" after the game at Iowa State, the junior always kept it interesting. No Kansas fan will ever be able to cut their toenails again without remembering the wacky comment Gooden made on national television about "clipping his toenails" and needing "new wheels" so he could keep up with Oregon's fast-paced offense in the NCAA Tournament.
It's too bad there wasn't a video camera hovering around him when he showed off his acting skills, or lack thereof, and tried to convince a handful of reporters that he could be the next Denzel Washington when he was done playing basketball. Let's hope Gooden has a long, successful career in the NBA.
He kept it real and never gave the media coach-speak. A "one game at a time" or "we just have to give 110 percent" never slipped through his lips, but Gooden didn't give his opponents any bulletin-board material, either.
When freshman point guard Aaron Miles missed a dunk late in the game against Oregon this season. Gooden saved Miles from becoming "a greasy spot on the floor," when he calmed the coach down before Williams had a chance to eat the freshman point guard for dinner, Williams said.
He praised his teammates and lobbied the media to vote Kirk Hinrich and Nick Collison to the All-Big 12 Conference First Team. After he received the Bill Bridges rebounding award at the team awards ceremony Monday, he jokingly thanked his teammates for "missing all those shots" that allowed him to get so many rebounds.
When Gooden came to Lawrence in the fall of his freshman year he was a raw talent that had hardly been coached in high school. One day at practice that season, Williams got upset at the freshman he had nicknamed "Hurricane Drew" and told

Hoglund miracle
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
It's probably safe to say that Chris Jones never had a bigger game.
Facing No. 8 Wichita State, the freshman pitched a masterpiece, allowing just two hits and no earned runs in seven innings of work and leading the Kansas baseball team to a 9-1 victory over the Shockers last night.
"I thought Chris did a marvelous job," Kansas coach Bobby Randall said. "I can't say enough about him. He's been working for this moment for a long time."
In only his second collegiate start, Jones took a no-hitter into the sixth inning before Drew Moffitt broke it up with an infield single.
"My last outing was kind of rough," Jones said, "so I had the attitude that I had nothing to lose."
Freshman Tom Gorzelanny relieved Jones, pitching the final two innings, striking out three and allowing two hits.
Despite six Jayhawk errors, the Shockers were only able to put one
run on the board, on an RBI ground out by Joe Muich in the fifth.
"Defensively, it wasn't a pretty game," Randall said. "We did battle some good two-out hits and got some key clutch RBIs so I thought that was good."
Kansas tacked on two more in the fifth, two more in the seventh and two in the eighth to put the game out of reach.
The layhawks (14-15) scored three in the fourth inning with the help of two crucial Shocker errors.
Notes
An unscheduled game between Kansas and Nebraska-Omaha has been added to make up for lost games earlier in the season. The two teams will play at 5 p.m. today at Hoglund Ballpark.
Last night's announced attendance was 1,623, the fifth-largest in Hogland Ballpark history.

Stephenson sounds off
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
Following the Kansas baseball team's 9-1 victory over No. 8 Wichita State, Shocker coach Gene Stephenson fired off about the less-than-spectacular effort his squad gave against Jayhawk pitcher Chris Jones.
"We were no-hit for five or six innings by a slow-pitch softball pitcher." Stephenson said. "I mean, my God. No disrespect intended, but he don't throw very hard. If he were that good of a pitcher, he would have been pitching a lot for this team. Lord knows they need it."
Jones didn't allow a hit until

Freshman pitcher leads team to win doubleheader
By Ali Brox Kansan sportswriter
Katie Campbell flashes a smile as she crosses home plate after hitting a second-inning two-run blast that put the Jayhawks up 2-0 over the Southwest Missouri State Bears yesterday.
The softball box scores are becoming all too familiar when Kansas freshman pitcher Serena Settlemier takes the mound.
AARON LERNER/KANSAN
settember threw one inning of relief in game one and went the distance in game two as the Jayhawks took both games from Southwest Missouri State, 3-2 and 3-0. Kansas improved to 25-16 overall.
Settlemier allowed one hit and struck out one in the first game to pick up her fourth save of the season. She then returned for game two and gave up three hits and struck out a career-high 10 to earn the shut-out. She also went 2-for-3 from the plate.
"I'm pretty confident out on the mound," Settlemier said. "Today I was confident in the batter's box because I've been in a slump. I crowded the plate a lot and then I got the inside pitch and that's my favorite pitch. I'm doing better adjusting to the pitching. We usually have a hard time with slower pitchers because we all have quick hands so we adjusted well."
"Settlemier continues to throw
the ball well for us," coach Tracy Bunge said. "I think she continues to learn. She made some adjustments mid-stream during the game, and we haven't seen that all the time."
Settlemier wasn't the only hurler to pitch well. Senior Kelly Campbell went six innings, gave up five hits and two earned-runs while collecting five strike-outs. She earned the victory and improved to 3-2 this season.
Kelly Campbell pitched the first game to her sister, senior catcher Katie Campbell. Katie Campbell got the Jayhawks on the board with a two-run home run in the second
inning that put Kansas up 2-0
"Katie Campbell is starting to come back around," Bunge said. "She had some good at bats, even some loud outs, obviously the home run in the first game. We need Katie to get back in a groove here at the end of the season and hopefully today was a step forward."
Southwest Missouri State fought back in the top of the third with a two-run homer by Amber Curtis to tie the game 2-2.

Missouri's Kareem Rush plans to enter NBA draft
The Associated Press
COLUMIBA, Mo. — Missouri junior Kareem Rush is expected to announce today whether he'll leave early and enter the NBA draft.
A written statement from the school yesterday said Rush would make his announcement at a news conference, which coach Quin Snyder also will attend. The statement did not offer any specifics as to Rush's decision.
Rush could announce plans to enter the draft but not sign with an agent, allowing him to later decide to return to school. Rush would have to make that decision by June 19, one week before the draft.
Missouri sports information director Chad Moller declined to comment on Rush's impending decision, joking that Rush would probably use the news conference to review a Monday night concert performance in Columbia by rap artist Nelly.
"It's his deal," Moller said.
That's the path taken by former Tiger Keyon Dooling, who left Missouri two seasons ago after his sophomore year. Dooling ended up committing to the draft and was selected 10th by the Orlando Magic, which then traded him to the Los Angeles Clippers.
The 6-foot-6 Rush is a two-time All-Big 12 pick who averaged 19.8 points this season, but struggled at times when facing double-team defenses for the first time in his college career. Rush, however, led the 12th-seeded Tigers into the Elite Eight in the NCAA tournament
"If I go out there and try out for teams and I'm not placed where I want to be, then I see no reason why coming back and improving my stock wouldn't be a good idea," Rush said last month.
and scored 17 points in a 81-75 loss to Oklahoma in the West Regional final.
Rush's older brother JaRon left UCLA after his sophomore season two years ago and went undrafted. The final cut of the Seattle SuperSonics last fall,JaRon Rash was released by the practice squad of the ABA's Kansas City Knights in February after missing practice.
Rush has said previously he would return for his senior season if he's not projected to be among the first 13 selections in the June 26 draft.
Indiana's Jeffries goes pro
The Associated Press
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. Jared Jeffries hoped he would get an opportunity to one day play in the NBA. On Monday, he made certain he'd get that chance.
Jeffries, a 6-foot-10 sophomore forward who helped lead Indiana to the NCAA championship game, added his name to the NBA draft, foregoing his final two years of college eligibility.
"All my life, I've had two dreams. My first dream was to hear my name called on graduation day, the second was to hear my name called for the NBA draft," Jeffries said. "I never could have imagined that I would get a chance to play NBA basketball so early."
Jeffries was the Big Ten's player of the year and a secondteam All-American. He led the Hoosiers in scoring and rebounding, averaging 15.0 points and 7.6 rebounds.
Jeffries dismissed any possibility of pulling his name out of the draft. Players can withdraw until June 19 if they do not sign with an agent. Jeffries said his decision was final — and that he would likely choose an agent in
the next few days.
Jeffries has been projected as a top-15 pick in the June draft. He consulted with NBA team officials in the past week, but declined to say how high he expected to be drafted.
The 20-year-old Jeffries demonstrated his ability to play both inside and outside during the Hoosiers' improbable tournament run, which ended with a loss to Maryland in the national championship game.
Jeffries, working down low, had 24 points and 15 rebounds in the Hoosiers upset of topranked Duke. Two games later, with Tom Coverdale slowed by a sprained left ankle, Jeffries showed the ability of a point guard, occasionally running the fast break.
Questions remain whether Jeffries is strong enough to play in the NBA. He bulked up to 215 pounds this year after working out last summer with some of the Indiana Pacers.
"Is anybody ready for the NBA?" said Jeffries' father, Tom. "The answer is no he is not ready. But he will get ready and with the right work ethic, he will be ready."
Indiana Coach Mike Davis was ill and did not attend Jeffries' announcement.
In a statement released by Indiana, Davis said he supported Jeffries' decision.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and I know that Jared will make the best of it," Davis said. "I plan to keep in touch with him throughout his career and he knows that I am always here if he ever needs me. It was a pleasure to have coached him for two seasons."
Jeffries' decision to enter the draft was widely expected. He considered leaving last season after being named the Big Ten's freshman of the year. However, his parents persuaded him to stay in school.
Jeffries and his father spent the weekend fishing in Tennessee while they discussed the decision.
"It is about a dream of mine, it is not a hardship case," Jeffries said. "It's a dream I have to play against the best basketball players. It's mostly for myself because I have a chance to play."
Jeffries becomes the fourth Indiana player to enter the NBA draft early, following Isiah Thomas, Jay Edwards and Kirk Haston, who left last year after his junior season.

WOMEN'S LACROSSE Players break records in game against Illinois
Two KU women's lacrosse members have moved into the record books.
Lindsey Johnson set the single season goal record with her 30th score and Kristen Bloom tied the career goal record of 43.
Last weekend, against the University of Illinois, Johnson, St. Louis freshman, scored five goals and Bloom, Wichita senior, added three.
Both records were previously owned by Lara Ratican, who set the single season record with 29 goals in 1999.
Johnson will try to extend her record and Bloom will try to make the career goal mark her own this weekend with games against Lake Forest College and Ball State University on Saturday and against the University of Iowa and Knox College on Sunday.
TENNIS After winning streak, Bejan named Player of Week
Kansas tennis player Aurelien Beijar was named the Big 12 Conference Tennis Player of the Week for matches played from April 1 to 7, the Big 12 announced yesterday.
Big 12 team has a combined 6-0 singles and doubles record this past week while competing at No. 5 singles and No. 3 doubles alongside senior Cheryl Mallaiah. Bejar defeated Kansas State's Pauline Castillejos 6-4, 7-6 (5), 6-3, Missouri's Caitlin Thompson 6-3, 7-5 and Iowa State's Courtney Leese 6-2, 6-2 over the five-day span of dual team matches.
In doubles, Bejar, Clermont-Ferrand, France native, teamed with Malliah to defeat Kansas State's Maria Rosenberg/Pauline Castillejos, 8-6, Missouri's Mary Barry/Caitlin Thompson, 8-4 and Iowa State's Courtney Leese/Edna Vazquez, 8-6, over the same April 3-7 dates
Bejar has won her last 11 singles matches and has totaled a 12-2 record in singles action with a 9-0 record versus Big 12 opponents this spring. In doubles, she carries a 7-6 record for the spring dual season.
"This is great for Aurelie," coach Kilmery Waterman said. "She came here in January and started off a little rocky but is now getting in stride. She is a great team player and I am very happy for her."

BASKETBALL Minnesota player receives suspension
NEW YORK — Minnesota Timberwolves center Marc Jackson was suspended without pay for one game yesterday by the NBA for his flagrant foul against former teammate Bob Sura.
Jackson leveled the Golden State guard as he drove to the basket with 8:07 left in the second quarter Monday night. Jackson hit Sura high, then appeared to shove Sura as he fell hard to the ground.
Jackson was called for a flagrant foul and ejected.
"Bobby was a little ticked when I first tried to apologize, but he knows I wasn't trying to hurt him," Jackson said. "My coaches knew I was just playing the game. When I saw it on the videotape, it did look kind of bad."

Men's golf places in top 10 again
After winning the Stevinson Ranch Invitational in its last outing, the Kansas men's golf team put up an impressive follow-up performance at the Western Intercollegiate by finishing 4th in a 17-team field yesterday.
Once again, the team was anchored by its rising star, junior Chris Marshall.
Marshall finished third overall at the Stevinson Ranch Invitational, and yesterday ended in a tie for second place at the Western Intercollegiate. Marshall did so by setting a new career best with a three-round score of 208, including an even-par 70 in the third round.
be 10, 71th place.
The Washington Huskies finished first with a team score of 834, 20 strokes ahead of second place finisher Fresno State. San Jose State finished two strokes behind Fresno State and placed
third, two strokes ahead of the Jayhawks.
This showing marks seven consecutive tournaments at which the Jayhawks have finished in the top 10. They will next head to Chapel Hill, N.C., to compete in the Intercollegiate 2002, April 13-14, North Carolina and North Carolina State will play co-hosts to the tournament.
It will be the last tournament for the Jayhawks before the Big 12 Conference Tournament in Hutchinson, which starts April 29.
Other Jayhawks to compete included senior Travis Hurst, who fired a 2-under-par 68 in the second round and ended in a tie for sixth place, as well as senior Casey Harbour, whose three-round score of 223 was good for a tie of 44th place. Freshman Kevin Ward finished in a tie for 71st place with a score of 231, and his freshman teammate Andrew Price, shot a 232 and ended in a tie for 77th place.

there were two outs in the sixth inning.
The freshman ended up allowing two hits and striking out five in seven innings of work. It was just his second start of the season.
"We were totally dominated by a team in every phase of the game," Stephenson said. "[It was the] most embarrassing game of the year for us."
Kansas (14-15) never trailed, scoring three in the fourth and two in the fifth. Jones and freshman Tom Gorzelanny allowed just one run the entire game, and it was unearned.
"The thing about Chris is, he's pretty fearless," Kansas coach Bobby Randall said. "For a kid to take a no-hitter that long into the game, I mean that's a good ball club."
When asked about his team bouncing back for next week's rematch in Wichita, Stephenson didn't seem sure of his players ability to put yesterday's game behind them.
"Do you think that team of ours has enough spunk to have any revenge on anything?" he
said, "They looked like they were dead in the water and it would take six months to retrieve us from the depths."
Wichita State (20-8) committed four errors, managed just four hits, and had no answer for Jones all night.
"Let's give credit where credit's due," Stephenson said. "Chris Jones pitched very well. He had something tonight, and whatever it was, it was good enough to get us."

Pole vaulting accidents renew calls for more safety measures
The Associated Press
Six weeks in Kelsey Koty's life are just a blank, spent first in a coma and then in intensive care. Still, she cannot wait to get back to pole vaulting, the very sport that almost killed her.
"The things that helmets bring into play can make it more dangerous. Things on your head could throw off your balance or your general awareness."
The Eastern Washington University student survived a head injury in a track-and-field event that one research group calls the most dangerous of all sports it studied.
Three U.S. athletes — a college sophomore and two high school students — have died in pole vaulting accidents in the past seven weeks after hitting their heads on hard surfaces. In the past two decades, on average, one U.S. vaulter has died each year.
valuer has died early. The deaths have renewed calls for change. A bill in the New York Legislature calls for mandatory helm use by high school and college vaulters, and at least one college coach has ordered his team to wear such protection.
But Koty and other athletes say that is not the solution.
"Had I been wearing a helmet, I still probably would have had a severe neck injury," she says. "Just because you get in a car and put a seat belt on, don't think you're going to be totally safe."
Vaulters argue that the only helmets available are made for skateboarders or inline skaters, not for athletes who fall from the equivalent of a two-story building.
"I'm not for helmets. I wouldn't wear them," 2000 Olympic silver medalist Lawrence Johnson said.
Johnson and other athletes argue that proper technique is the key and that the sport is safer than ever if done right.
Ed Dare, whose son Kevin, a Penn State sophomore, died recently in a pole vaulting accident, has been leading the fight for helmet requirements. He points out that hockey resisted helmets for years but now accepts them.
Jan Johnson, the 1972 Olympic bronze medalist, runs pole vaulting camps nationwide and leads USA Track & Field's committee on pole vault safety. One of the biggest problems in high schools, he says, is that even minimum safety standards are sometimes ignored.
Montwood High School in El Paso, Texas, banned pole vaulting for two years in the 1990s after a fatal accident. When the event returned, track coach Joe Vazquez bought kayaking helmets and made them mandatory.
ignored
Pole vaulting pits are supposed to be no smaller than 161/2 feet wide and extend 12 to 13 feet behind the metal box in which vaulters plant their poles. Jan Johnson wants them even bigger, at least 19 feet, 8 inches wide, and 16 feet, 5 inches deep.
for years Idaho State track coach Dave Nielsen last week ordered all his vaulters to wear helmets. He also requires his two sons to use them when they compete in high school.
More important, he says, padding should be required on the area around the landing pit. Often the landing pads are on concrete that is not fully covered.
that is not necessary.
Jan Johnson first vaulted as a youth in his barnyard in 1963 and learned proper techniques at Bloom High School in Chicago Heights, Ill. He set a world indoor record in the University of Kansas.
"Pole vaulting pads are so much better today," he said. "I vaulted onto hay bales and straw piles when I was growing up. People knew how to land on their feet. Today's kids are dependent on the pit being there and they have a
perception the pit is going to catch them, as opposed to the perception we had 30 years ago that we had to know how to land."
Only two states do not have high school competition in pole vault—Iowa and Alaska.
"One reason is it increases the safety a little bit. The other reason is to try to create the awareness for safety. The real issue is education," he says. "This is a sport that has a great deal of height to it, and you're inverted. You put yourself in peril, so you find all the ways you can to protect yourself."
The most recent death was that of high school student Samoa Fili, 17, who was killed April 1 at the Wichita East Relays in Kansas. He fell about 12 feet onto the landing mat, but his head struck the concrete.
Kansas player commits to Nevada
The Associated Press
todd Okeson told the Reno Gazette-Journal he would sign a national letter of intent when the signing period began today.
RENO, Nev. — A first-team, all-Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference guard said he had committed to play basketball next season at Nevada.
Okeson helped lead the Dodge City Conqistadors to a 21-12 overall record and a 11-5 mark in the Jayhawk Conference's Western Division, one of the better junior college league's in the nation.
The 6-foot, 160-pound Okeson, who averaged 15.3 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists as a

"The Pack) showed the most interest in me the whole year. There were some people (college recruiters) that came in after the season was over." Oksen said.
sophomore last season, played the point and scoring guard at Dodge City, but said Nevada coaches had told him he would play the point for the Wolf Pack. As a senior at Weskan High, he led the state in scoring at 32 points.
Okeson said he was impressed with Nevada head coach Trent Johnson and associate head coach Mark Fox, a former Kansas State assistant who was reared in western Kansas. NCAA rules don't allow coaches to identify or comment on potential recruits
Okeson is a sharpshooter who
hit 44.8 percent of his 3-pointers for the season on 74-of-165 shooting and 50.6 percent on 44-of-87 in 16 conference games
"He's one of the top 10 players in the state." Dodge City coach Brian Hoberecht said. "He doesn't turn the ball over. He has great instincts for basketball."
Okeson said the other schools that showed the most interest in him were Oregon State, Denver, Illinois-Chicago and Eastern Kentucky. But Okeson never took another visit after taking a recruiting visit to Reno.
"One visit. That's all it took."
Okeson said. "I liked Reno a lot.
Nice town, good clean town. It's not too big, but big enough there are things to do."

Golfer Daly happy to be back
The Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. — He plays guitar. He writes songs. He lists his biggest vice as chocolate, not alcohol. He doesn't feel compelled to use his driver on every hole.
He is John Daly — the new John Daly — and he returns to the Masters a changed man after a forced absence last year helped him put life, and golf, in perspective.
"This means more to me being here than probably any other year." Daly said.
Oh. he still has his fun.
After all, what other player's plans for Tuesday night included an autograph-signing party while sitting in a million-dollar motor home in the parking lot of Hooters?
Problem was, living the way he played golf —grip it and rip it and worry about the consequences later—took its toll over the years.
One of the consequences was that Daly suddenly found himself outside looking in on the Masters.
His exemption — earned when he won the 1991 PGA Championship and extended after his 1995 British Open championship — expired after he missed the cut here in 2000.
When that round was over, he stormed to his car, not stopping for reporters or the few fans looking for an autograph.
So, he shifted his focus.
"I hated playing that bad, and wondering if I was going to be back here or not," Daly said.
This time, he's here on the merits of his top-50 standing in the world ranking, a system he bought into after writing it off as silly and useless at first, around the time he was falling to No. 507 in those standings.
As his raucous, crowded practice rounds on Monday and yesterday have shown, the fans are glad he's here — the big-hitting Big Dog who took the sport by surprise 11 years ago, when he won the PGA as an alternate and gave the common man a true hero to cheer.
With the good times came the bad: stories of failed marriages, drinking binges, torn-up hotel rooms, gambling and the seeming indifference to the sport that made him famous.
But at 35, the native son of Rogers, Ark., insists he has changed.
"I'm sort of a late maturer in about everything," he said. "And that's held me back, I think, three or four years."
A new, successful marriage helped the maturing process. So did his decision to curtail drinking, to cut down on sodas, and get off the multiple medications that bloated him to 265 pounds and made him feel like "a rat."
The humiliation of the 2000 Masters helped, too.
He realized he had to play better, or he'd never be invited back. He started playing hard on Saturdays and Sundays even when he knew he didn't have a chance to win the tournament because "at least I could get some points."
"It made me grind and focus a lot harder than previous years," he said.
He did it for himself, for his family, for the ranking. And he did it for the fans who continue to make him one of the most popular players in the game, even though he hasn't won a tournament in the United States since 1994.
"It's just nice to be playing good golf for them," Daly said.
Daly has replaced gambling and drinking with singing, songwriting and playing guitar. (Chocolate is still a problem sometimes, because "it's hard to turn down a big ol' piece of chocolate cake.")
Along with a few friends, Daly is working on a largely autobiographical album, due out in a few weeks. Among the songs are "Where I Am Now," "My Life," "I'm Drunk, Broke and Ain't Got a Penny to My Name," and, of course, "All My Exs Wear Rolexes."
"I sing it with my heart," Daly said. "I know I'm probably out of tune, but it's what everyone wanted, so I did it."
But Daly wants to be more than a music star. He wants to be in the hunt in another major, something that hasn't happened since he won the British in 1995.
"I think his story of coming back the way he has and devoting himself to the game, it's a great story and great to see because he's such a talent," Tiger Woods said.
N.Y. teams' early exits prove costly
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — These are dismal days for Madison Square Garden.
For the first time in 25 years, the building that calls itself the world's most famous arena will be dark during the NBA and NHL playoffs, meaning millions of lost dollars.
The Knicks and Rangers were eliminated well before their seasons ended, and changing economic conditions could mean a long wait before the Garden's postseason lights go on again.
This is the fifth straight year without a playoff appearance for the Rangers, who have one of the highest payrolls in the league at just under $70 million.
"It gets more disappointing each year," he said. "I don't ever think it's going to happen the next year. You go into camp with guarded optimism. We had a good feeling. I never expected we'd be here now."
Defenseman Brian Leetch scored the first goal in the deciding game when the Rangers ended a 54-year wait and won the Stanley Cup in 1994. The current dry spell is wearing on him.
For the Knicks, with a league-high $85.1 million payroll and squeezed by the NBA salary cap, it's the first year out of the playoffs since 1987.
"We let a lot of games slip away, and now we're paying for it," Latrell Sprewell said.
Both teams are top-heavy with veteran players who have struggled this season. The Knicks sagged after coach Jeff Van Gundy suddenly left following a 10-9 start. The Rangers started well but had a dreadful second half that not even the late addition of scoring star Pavel Bure could overcome.
The last time both teams missed the postseason in the same year was 1977, long before Cablevision owned the building and its sports franchises. And this double-knockout is expensive.
Each playoff game produces between $1 million to $1.5 million in arena revenue for the owners. Even the last teams to qualify and first teams eliminated are guaranteed at least that income for one home game in the NBA and two games in the NHL.
Playoffs also increase the rates the Garden can charge advertisers for spots on games broadcast by its MSG Network. Without them, those rates are reduced.
"You only make money on the popularity of the team. How many people watch the games equals how much advertising you sell," he said. "There is risk assumed by the distributor and the owner of the teams. In this case, Cablevision has a higher risk because it functions as both distributor and owner. It is a double-barreled hit."
Tom Wolzien, an executive with the Wall Street investment firm of Sanford C. Bernstein, said Cablevision's Garden plight was unusual.
With the nation's richest market, it would seem easy for Cablevision to quickly turn its clubs around with trades or free agents. But a team it doesn't own might have a major impact on how fast the Knicks and Rangers recover.
The New York Yankees, whose broadcast rights formed a linchpin of the MSG Network for a dozen years, have set up their own television network, YES.
Stern close to approving Hornets' move to Big Easy
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — As much as it pains him, NBA commissioner David Stern is close to giving his approval for the Charlotte Hornets to move to New Orleans.
Stern announced yesterday that the Hornets had not yet met all the benchmarks set by the league, but team owners George Shinn and Ray Wooldridge had been given more time to complete the process.
Stern said work remained to be done in New Orleans before an ownership relocation committee would recommend that the move be approved.
"They're not quite there yet, but when they get there—and I'm honing it a when
— I believe we're in a position where the committee will in fact recommend it," Stern said. "If the benchmarks are met, I would be inclined to forcefully urge the ownership to allow the team to move to New Orleans. Absolutely."
Deputy commissioner Russ Granik said the league would like the issue to be settled by the end of the month, and Wooldridge said he was confident the team would be
able to fulfill the league's requirements by then.
Once the seven-man relocation committee issues its recommendation, a minimum of seven days must pass before the 29 teams can vote on the move.
The Hornets led the league in attendance a decade ago, but the relationship between the fans, the owners and the local politicians has soured to such a degree that the team is now last in the league in attendance.
If approved, it would be the NBA's second franchise relocation in as many years after the league had gone 16 seasons without one. Last year, the Vancouver Grizzlies moved to Memphis.
The Hornets have been offered a lucrative relocation package by Louisiana, and it seems all but certain that the team will find out sometime during the playoffs that it is indeed moving to the Big Easy.
"This is an extraordinary disappointment." Stern said. "Charlotte has been a great city in the NBA. It led our expansion efforts in the 80s. The citizens supported this team early on and continuously, and it disappoints me
greatly."
Stern's comments came at the end of the two-day Board of Governors meeting.
Stern said he would not be concerned with the honesty of Shinn and Wooldridge, who announced last week incorrectly, it turns out that they had met all the benchmarks set by the league concerning ticket sales and corporate sponsorship.
The relocation committee met with Shinn and Wooldridge on Monday, then met with city officials from Charlotte to hear details of a new arena proposal.
The Hornets also were caught by The Charlotte Observer underreporting attendance figures, using the turnstile count instead of the league standard of tickets sold.
Team spokesman Harold Kaufman said the team would comply with league rules for reporting attendance over the remainder of the season.
Stern also said he would not preclude Charlotte from one day getting a different NBA franchise after a new arena was built, but he did not want to speculate on a timetable for when that might possibly happen.
L.A. Kings ready to end crazy ride through playoffs
The Kings beat the Dallas Stars 3-0 Monday night for their third consecutive victory. They're playing particularly well at Staples Center, where they are 8-0-2 since March 2, and have a goaltender peaking at the right
The Associated Press
It's been that kind of unpredictable ride for the Kings, who can still win the Pacific Division — or barely sneak into the postseason. They trail the first-place San Jose Sharks by two points. Each team has three games remaining, including a matchup Saturday in San lose.
against the kings and bedz.
“It’s fun pressure, the kind of pressure you thrive on.”
Los Angeles goaltender Felix Potvin said. “It will be nice once we know if we’re going to make the playoffs because it seems like it's been three months since we've been batting.”
LOS ANGELES — When the wild Western Conference playoff race ends this weekend, the Los Angeles Kings could be headed just about anywhere.
The Sharks are 0-4-0 against the Kings this season.
time.
Coach Andy Murray updated the conference standings daily on a white board in the team's dressing room at their suburban practice rink. Not that the players aren't keeping track themselves.
Potvin earned his sixth shutout of the season Monday, all in his last 36 starts.
"Felix played awesome," forward Bryan Smolinski said. "It was a solid performance by all 20 guys."
"You want other teams to beat other teams, but you can't wish things," Smolinski said. "You got to make it happen."
Los Angeles and Chicago were in a fourth-place tie with 93 points going into last night, five points ahead of the teams tied for the eighth and final playoff spot, Vancouver and Edmonton.
The Kings next play in Vancouver tomorrow but they could clinch a playoff spot without lacing up their skates.
If Vancouver doesn't earn a point Tuesday night at Colorado, the Kings are in. Or if the Canucks tie or lose in overtime, the Kings qualify if
Edmonton loses or ties Phoenix on Wednesday night.
A win at Vancouver also would clinch at least eight place in the conference for the Kings, who are 1-1-1 against the Canucks this season.
"If you take a look at the teams that are still behind us, there's every team but Dallas that can catch us. We've got to be concerned about that," Murray said. "If we do win that next one, we're secure and we can think about other things, too. We have to get 95 points."
Los Angeles ends the regular season Sunday at home against Anaheim. The Mighty Ducks, long out of the playoff picture, have played the role of spoilers to the hilt.
In their last seven games, the Ducks beat Edmonton, Phoenix and Dallas twice to further muddle the already clouded playoff picture. Anaheim is 0-3-1 against Los Angeles.
"We've been saying 93 points for months now, but it won't be enough. We're going to have to keep winning," right wing Ian LaPerriere said.

Woman scales back racy previews
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — If you want to get a racy movie trailer into theaters, first you have to talk to the Hand — Bethlyn Hand.
While most people know that the Motion Picture Association of America rates movies for violent or sexual content, few know about Hand, who with her small staff reviews all marketing material, including trailers and newspaper ads, for suitability.
She doesn't decide how movie studios market their films. For the past 27 years, the 64-year-old Hand has been the MPAA's gatekeeper. And for 27 years, marketing executives have been trying to push the envelope in an attempt
to get people to see their movies.
"With the teen-age movies, there's always a lot more sex marketers want in the advertising than we will agree to," Hand said, sitting in her office at the MPAAs Western offices in Encino, Calif.
A lot has changed over the years.
In 1978, for instance, she rejected a trailer for the movie Coming Home because it showed Jane Fonda wearing a wedding ring while in bed with Jon Voight, who played a man who was not her husband.
"I wouldn't allow the wedding ring because it showed she was in a compromising position outside of her marriage." Hand remembers. "And now, nobody cares."
MPAA rules don't allow advertising to refer to condoms, as Universal Pictures discovered last year when they entered into a marketing agreement with a condom maker to promote its American Pie 2. Hand nixed a television commercial, and Universal backed out of the deal.
"I don't want anyone to be offended by what we approve here," she said. "Parents are very protective of what they did not select for their kids to see.And with a trailer, you're a captive audience."
The hardest marketing campaigns for Hand to review are for horror films.
"How much is too much fright?" she asked.

Why is it so hard for a 30-year-old to think about retirement? When you're young, retireme
planning is pretty far down on your list of concerns. Say, somewhere between the melting polar ice caps and dishpan hands. And that's completely understandable. But by planning early and sticking to that plan, you can increase the money you'll have to enjoy retirement, and potentially decrease the years you'll spend working. We offer a range of different options, including tax-deferred retirement plans, SRAs, and IRAs, all with low expenses. Now that's something to fall in love with.

outs, senior shortstop Courtney Wright hit a solo home run over the right field wall that put Kansas up for good, 3-2.
AARON LERNER/KANSAN
Senior catcher Katie Campbell blasts a two-run home run in the second inning of yesterday's game against Southwest Missouri State. Campbell's homer put the gave the Jayhawks an early 2-0 lead.
"She's a very big part of our offense," Bunge said referring to Wright. "If she's good, we're a better team. So we really need her, and I'm going to stick with her."
Neither team did much offensively until the bottom of the fifth when the Jayhawks struck again. Settlemiier singled up the middle but was then out on a fielder's choice at second after a Wright bunt. An error by the second baseman allowed senior center-fielder Shelly Musser to reach first safely and moved Wright to second.
Kansas started well offensively in game two. Senior third baseman Megan Urquhart walked with two outs in the bottom of the first and advanced to second when the catcher overthrew first on a pick-off attempt.
Freshman first baseman Lindsey Weinstein followed with a double past the shortstop that scored Wright and advanced Musser to third. A squeeze bunt by Urquhart scored Musser, and
Senior designated player Leah Tabb traded places with Urquhart at second when she hit a double to the centerfield wall that scored Urquhart for the 1-0 lead.
"Their corners are back a little bit, Megan's been struggling, that's a great opportunity to have her do something successful for us that can be a big run and can put the other team back on their heels a little bit." Bunge said. "And it was perfect. It was in the right spot and to top it all off she head's up because nobody's at second base covering so she not only gets the squeeze down, she gets to second base."
Settlemier allowed just one hit in the next two innings and ended the game by striking out the final two batters.
Kansas had a 3-0 lead
Kansas plays again today in a doubleheader against Wichita State University. The action
starts at 3 p.m. at Jayhawk Field. Wichita State, the second straight Missouri Valley Conference opponent for the Jayhawks, is currently 15-21 overall and 8-5 in conference.
Lindsey Craig does most of the pitching for the Shockers and is 12-12 with a 1.93 ERA. Tina Lewis leads the Shockers at the plate with a .320 batting average.
Probable Kansas starters for today's games are sophomore pitcher Kara Pierce in game one and junior pitcher Kirsten Milhoan in game two.

Heart and pride can do funny things to a person and those are what Gooden has been wrestling with this week.

Sometime in the future, Williams will recruit a player with better basketball skills than Gooden and that player might even lead Kansas to a national championship. But there will never be another Jayhawk with the combination of talent and charisma of Drew Gooden.

'Geek Central full of books, man with tail
By Summer Lewis Kansan staff writer
Geek Central isn't just a place for studying.
The third-floor room in Battenfeld Scholarship Hall is filled with computers, a Sony PlayStation, a tiny TV, roleplaying games, 300 pounds of books and a man with a tail. The room is also known as the Nerd's Nest and the Tool Shed because of its computers, games and four occupants: Erick Anderson, Chris Bertrand, Bob Irwin and John Smith, Perry Hall, Md., freshman.
Anderson, Hutchinson junior, named his computer Megalith because of its enormous size and decoration.
He painted his computer black and covered it with little red and blue light bulbs. It also has a viewing window with neon glow tubes inside.
"Megalith isn't like any computer you've seen before," said Irwin, Martell, Neb., freshman. "The computer almost reaches up to my waist, which would be about two and a half feet tall. It is definitely the biggest computer in the hall."
"The guys come in and comment on how cool Megalith looks," he said. "The only reason that we got Megalith was because Erick's old computer got stolen."
Irwin said the computer was widely admired throughout the hall.
Irwin said another unique thing about Geek Central was that it was the only room at Battenfeld where a guy with a tail lived.
"I have a long, spotted tail covered with white fur that I wear all of the time, except to class," Irwin said. "It attaches to my belt and looks pretty real."
Irwin said he got the tail from a friend who makes them.
"I got it because I thought it would be neat to have a tail," he said. "It is just something weird about me and our room."
Irwin said that his tail helped his dating life.
"I have had a lot of chicks tell me that it looks pretty cool." he said.
The room also has 300 pounds of books, ranging from fiction to fantasy, that roommates have collected. Bertrand, Wichita sophomore, said he thought Geek Central was a special place because of all of the books.
"We know that our collection of books weighs 300 pounds because we have had to move them all several times," he said. "Not many people can say they have 300 pounds of books in their room."

Voter turnout below last year
By Sarah Hill
Kansan staff writer
Turnout for the first day of this year's Student Senate elections is almost 8 percent less than last year's first-day participation.
Elections Commissioner David Mitchell said that 2,271 students voted Wednesday. This number is down from the 2,466 students who voted on the first day of last year's elections.
Mitchell said that other than the decreased turnout, the first day of elections went smoothly.
"We haven't had any significant problems yet," Mitchell said. "We're happy we have one successful day to put on the books."
Elections continue today at eight polling stations around campus.
Final election results will be announced after 8 p.m. tonight in the Kansas Union. Results will be broadcast live on JKJH 90.7 and KUJH cable channel 66 and posted on kansan.com.
Students who voted yesterday gave various reasons for participating in the elections.
Camille Andress, Lake Forest, Ill., sophomore, said she went to the Kansas Union to vote to avoid long lines at Strong Hall.
Andress said she voted because she was upset by information on a campaign flier she received on Wescoe Beach.
"At least now they'll stop harassing me." Andress said.
Thao Nguyen, Garden City junior, voted at Wescoe Hall. She thought that it was important for students to vote.
"I know it's a big thing on campus," she said. "It's for us."
Both Andress and Nguyen voted for Referendum B, which continues the Newspaper Readship program.
"I'm used to the Chicago papers at home." Andress said. "It's nice to read something other than the Kansan."
Campaign chalking around campus was defaced before the polls
In other election news:
opened yesterday morning.
Delta Force chalk messages were altered to read "Delta Farce," and the word "communists" was written above the messages. Some other Delta Force messages were marked off or damaged.
Karen Keith, Tulsa, Okla., junior and presidential candidate for Delta Force, said she was more concerned about getting students to vote than about the chalk messages.
"I'm not going to spend time worrying about the chalking," she said.
Keith said she and other Delta Force members would erase the negative markings after the polls closed.
KUnited presidential candidate Jonathan Ng, Leawood junior, said he had no idea who defaced the chalking.
"My strategy is just to focus on KUnited," he said. "I seriously doubt that this came from anyone in our coalition."
Elections Commissioner David Mitchell said that no campaign violations had been filed yesterday about the chalking.
Polling sites
Polling sites for today and tomorrow's Student Senate elections will be in the following campus buildings:
Strong, Wescoe and Haworth halls 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Kansas and Burge unions 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Mrs. E's 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Med Center thrives amid budget cuts
By Lauren Beatty
Kansan staff writer
While the hospital component of the University of Kansas Medical Center is thriving — and hiring — the School of Medicine component is in the throes of a budget shortfall.
The hospital, which has been privately operated since 1998, has a different budget from the state-run School of Medicine.
This week, eight classified staff members of the school received word that their jobs would not be renewed this summer.
Kevin Boatright, associate executive vice chancellor for university relations, said other vacant classified positions would be eliminated, but he did not know the exact number.
Last week, 11 unclassified staff members including one professor, received letters explaining that their jobs would be eliminated June 30.
Ten vacant unclassified positions will also be cut, Boatright said. More cuts are expected. He said a total of 90 full-time positions would be eliminated, including 20 faculty members.
Boatright said classified staff included cleri-
"It is not performance-related, and they are not layoffs."
Kevin Boatright
associate executive vice chancellor
cal workers, janitors and other 40-hour work week employees. Unclassified staff jobs require a college degree and include positions such as research assistants and professors.
Boatright said the cuts were in preparation for a tight state budget next fiscal year, and because of rules in the faculty/staff handbook, the University gave advance notice to staff about the job cuts.
INSIDETODAY
"It is not performance-related, and they are not layoffs," Boatright said. "What happened was each department made an evaluation of positions that could be eliminated. That was the basis for the decisions. It's not so much as individuals as it is positions with less impact on the academic functions of the medical center."
On the other hand, the hospital is searching for

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — The former high school biology teacher at the center of a cheating scandal said a Piper School Board member told her to get a lawyer as she was preparing to address the board Tuesday night.
Christine Pelton spoke at a school board meeting Tuesday night. Afterward, she told WDAF-TV that a school board member "told me I need to get my lawyer" before the meeting began.
Former Piper teacher addresses board, says member told her to get lawyer
Board President Chris McCord told the station he had not talked to Pelton before the meeting.
Pelton resigned after school officials ordered her to change failing grades given to 28 students whom she believed had cheated on a class project.
During the meeting, Pelton had no harsh words for board members. Instead, she thanked parents, students and administrators for the "wonderful experiences" she had during her year and a half at Piper High School.
mger this year and a man is telling her "I never would have made it through each day without knowing that the principal, vice principal, secretaries and all of the teachers at Piper were always behind me." Pelton told an audience of about 50 people at the meeting.
Pelton did not use the word "plagiarism" in her short address. She focused on how much teaching meant to her and said she planned to return to it eventually.
Also Tuesday, Arkansas City superintendent Jean Snell said former Piper High School principal Mike Adams has accepted a job as high school principal there.
Adams announced his resignation as principal at Piper High School around the time the cheating scandal came to light, though he has never said if it played a role in his decision. Snell said Adams will begin his new job Aug. 1.

CAMPUS Biologist to speak on DNA at University
A molecular biologist and University of Kansas graduate who earned a MacArthur fellowship will be speaking on campus today.
David H. Hillis, who won the $295,000 award known as the "Genius Award" in 1999, will speak on "DNA and the History of Life" at 3:30 p.m. today at room 1005 in Haworth Hall.
The lecture, one of several surrounding this week's KU Biological Sciences Alumni Advisory Board meeting, is open to the public.
James Orr, chair of the undergraduate biology program, said that 16 to 20 alumni from all over the country visited the University and sponsored events, such as this lecture, in conjunction with the alumni board meeting. Hillis is currently a faculty member at the University of Texas.
Before Hillis' lecture, an undergraduate and graduate research symposium will start the events at 2 p.m. with poster presentations in the foyer outside 1005 Haworth Hall. The presentations will resume at 4 p.m., following the lecture.

University leaders to address Legislature
Leaders of businesses in the state of Kansas, current and former members of the Kansas Board of Regents and higher education leaders will travel to Wichita today to call on the legislature in a press conference. The group wants the legislature to include revenue enhancements for the 2003 state budget so higher education is not lost. The state is facing a $700 million budget shortfall for the upcoming fiscal year in June.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway will be among those attending.
Lynn Bretz, director of University Relations, said the group plans on two main statements. The first is that Kansas businesses depend on Kansas' graduates. The second point is that the group supports a state budget that protects public higher education and includes revenue enhancements.
"This is a cooperative event effort between all higher education, community colleges and technical schools," Bretz said. "In principle they all support that higher education is not cut."

Pharmacy graduates in demand across country
Travis Stallbaumer didn't know what kind of salary he could earn when he entered the University of Kansas' School of Pharmacy. He just wanted to work in health care.
But Stallbaumer, Seneca senior, said he was extremely pleased when he received a job offer this year to work for a rural Kansas pharmacy. While he didn't want his hourly wage in print, Stallbauer did say that his salary would be more than $70,000 a year.
By Maggie Koerth
Kansan staff writer
The United States has been experiencing a shortage of pharmacists for some time, but a study released by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services shows that the shortage has grown even more critical. According to the study, the number of unfilled full- and part-time pharmacist positions rose from 2,700 to nearly 7,000 between 1998 and 2000.
Because of this, pharmacy school graduates, including those from the University, can expect high starting salaries and hiring perks.
Jack Fincham, dean of pharmacy, said pharmacy companies had given several University students $10,000 bonuses to pay back college loans and money to pay for moving expenses. He also said the average pharmacy student could expect a starting salary of anywhere from $60,000 to $90,000.
Fincham said the department had accepted 104 incoming students this year, 10 more than last year. He said it expected to accept 104 next year as well. Fincham said all of this year's 101 pharmacy school students who graduate in May would have jobs.
The shortage is expected to last for another 10 years, but Fincham said there were many variables that could change that.
"Periods of shortages go in repeating cycles," he said. "Right now we have too few pharmacists but if you go back you'll find times when finding a position at all
has been very difficult."
Darcie Callahan, an academic advisor at the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center, said there were not enough pharmacists because of an increase in the use of prescription drugs.
"There's been advances in prescriptions drugs and a lot more people are using them," she said. "It's almost odd now not to be taking something."
Callahan said the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center tried to steer people toward majors that fit their interests.
But Fincham stressed that people shouldn't enroll in pharmacy just because they want a large salary.
"If someone is interested in science or health professions we'll recommend it to them because it's one of those majors people sometimes don't think about," she said.
"It's a mistake to go into any career based solely on the financial rewards," he said. "Most pharmacists will tell you the major reason they got into it was to help people."
Callahan said the center also recommended the major to people who came in looking for a high-paying major.
"We try to explain to people that if they don't like science this isn't something they'll be happy doing," she said. "We also let them know that it isn't a major for someone who just wants to get an easy degree in four years."
Callahan said she agreed.
Stallbaumer said he did not enter the pharmacy field for the money, but because he enjoyed what he did.
The pharmacy school program at the University takes two years of undergraduate work followed by four years in the school if a student is admitted after taking a pharmacy school admission test.

Festival to bring respected artists to Lied
Rv.Jessica Tims
By Jessica Tims Kansan staff writer
Two Grammy-nominated jazz artists will perform at the 25th annual KU Jazz Festival beginning tonight and continuing through Saturday.
The festival will start tonight with a performance by the KU Jazz Singers at 7:30 at the Lied Center. Admission to tonight's show is $5 for students and $7 for non-students.
Fred Hersch, a pianist and twotime Grammy nominee for best jazz instrumental performance, will share the stage with KU Jazz Combo I at 7:30 tomorrow night at the Lied Center.
Maria Schneider, a four-time Grammy nominee in best large jazz ensemble performance and best instrumental composition, will lead the jazz ensemble in a vocal concert at 7:30 on Saturday at the Lied Center.
"The performance will be her original compositions," said Keith Johnson, Prairie Village senior, music
department teaching assistant and pianist in the KU Jazz Ensemble. "Half will be from her new CD and half will be music she wrote for at the University of Miami."
The festival will also include an educational outreach program, said Dan Gailey, director of jazz studies.
Fifty college, high school and junior high school bands will take part in the outreach program, Gailey said. He said each group would perform in front a professional musician or educator who would act as a clinician for the outreach program. He said each band would receive an on-stage critique from the clinician after its performance.
Admission to tomorrow's and Saturday's shows will be $10 for students and $14 for non-students. Educational outreach performances from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in Murphy Hall are free and open to the public.
"If you are into jazz it is obvious why you should come," Johnson said. "But if you know little about jazz and want a little more exposure, this is the best time to go check it out. This is a
once-in-a-lifetime chance to see Fred Hersch and Maria Schneider at this price."

EDITORIAL
Use your vote wisely to elect next governor
Kansas is not a state that frequents positive press or positive public relations. First, we had the evolution issue, where some school boards did not want evolution taught in the curriculum, which made us look backward and uneducated.
Then came the plagiarism issue with the school board that did not support the teacher's decision. That was embarrassing. Now the Legislature passed a bill allowing "pro-life" license plates.
What could make Kansas receive even worse publicity? Tim Shallenburger being elected as governor could.
Shallenburger, one of the gubernatorial candidates running in the Republican primary in August, does not have a four-year degree from a university. According to Steve Roses' March 29 column, "Final Four, Bottom Four?" in the Johnson County Sun, his degree is from Coffeyville Community College. Prior to attending Coffeyville Community College, he attended Pittsburgh State University. If education has not been important in Shallenburger's life so far, he is not going to make it a high priority if he is elected governor.
Three Republicans are running in the Republican primary on Aug. 6 — Attorney General Carla Stovall, the moderates' choice; State Treasurer Tim Shallenburger, the conservatives' choice; and Bob Knight, mayor of Wichita. The only Democrat running in the primary is Kathleen Sebelius, Kansas Insurance Commissioner.
With such a largely Republican state, the Republican Party has become quite fractured, which is why there are three candidates running for the Republican nomination. If Shallen-burger wins the nomination, it will be an embarrassment to all Republicans and to the state of Kansas.
Shallenburger has proved to be a successful campaigner, and is a good example for professional advancement with only a two-year degree. He has been state treasurer, and speaker of the House of Representatives. On the other hand, the media will exploit the fact that Kansas has a governor without a four-year degree.
Shallenburger has continuously criticized the House Appropriations Committee for not cutting the budget correctly to fix the deficit. However, when invited to the committee, members of the committee asked him where to cut the budget, and he offered no specific answers or solutions.
budget, and he will be required to According to the Department of Administration, Shallenburger gave several of his staffers beyond significant raises, while claiming to be a "fiscal conservative." Maybe he should cut down on the raises instead of cutting down on education.
Shallenburger has been quoted to say, "I never support taxes," according to the Emporia Gazette's article "Candidate for Downsized Government," on March 27. He is also one of the forces behind "cutting" our way out of Kansas' over $700 million debt, including cutting education. Maybe Tim Shallenburger should take a trip to the University of Kansas and see what education is all about. Republican or Democrat, there are higher educated and more qualified candidates to represent the state of Kansas as governor. In the primary on Aug. 6, do not vote for Tim Shallenburger. There are better alternatives.

To the person that knows all the information about MacGuyver, you are a big loser. You have too much time on your hands. Give a life.
I find it very interesting that KUNITED is being slammed for being the "greek coalition," and I can only assume that's because of the stereotype between Greeks and alcohol, but isn't it Delta Force and Vision that want a pub placed in the Kansas Union? A little food for thought there.
Why should you die to go to heaven? The earth is already in space.

Demand to get your money's worth; complain about poor instructors
COMMENTARY
I hope there are few students reading this column who have had the kind of experience I have had. I had a poor instructor. My experiences with instructors at the University of Kansas have been extremely positive for the most part, but I suppose there exists at every university a few graduate teaching assistants or professors who are downright awful. I expect more for my money.

I took a 100-level course to fulfill a general requirement. Initially, I had high hopes for the class. The subject was interesting to me, and I thought class discussion should at least be entertaining. I wasn't at all prepared for an instructor with poor teaching skills who wouldn't discuss grading, did not encourage visits during office hours and actually discouraged class discussion.
I complained to my friends. I complained to my parents. I contemplated skipping class on more than one occasion. Finally, I decided to take action. I went to the head of the department.
The department chair was genuinely interested to visit with me. I explained my visit, clarified that I was not in the chair's office to complain about a grade but to make the chair aware of the situation. When I mentioned the instructor's name, I was told that yes, there had been complaints before. The instructor I had was "not
I have been told that the instructor evaluation surveys passed around at the end of each semester are taken very seriously by instructors and their departments. It is important to fill out these evaluations completely and accurately. It is not always enough to wait until the end of the semester to voice complaints. Obviously, these evaluations are not always regarded as seriously as they should be; otherwise, there would be at least one instructor no longer teaching at this University.
one of the best in the department." I was treated politely, advised on how to interact with my instructor to improve my chances for achieving the grade I needed and encouraged to update the chair on the situation. What I was not told was why an instructor who had received poor reviews from other students was still teaching.
tain product; your education. As a consumer, you have the right to request the best product for your money. Most likely, you would complain if your drive-thru lunch was not what you had ordered or if it was of poor quality. I certainly hope your education is more important than fast food. It is important to speak up when you do not receive your money's worth.
As a student, you are the consumer of a cer-
Make sure your complaint is valid before you speak with a department head or other authorities in the University. Don't cry wolf; take responsibility for your own actions. Do all you can to get along with a bad instructor, and don't skip class because you will only make the situation worse on yourself.
Be polite. Customer service usually reacts better toward polite, honest criticism from customers. It's a fair bet that department heads and other authorities at this University do, too.
Your education is one of the most important objectives in your life right now. A good college education has numerous benefits. You or your parents pay for your education, whether directly through tuition or indirectly through taxation. If you do encounter a bad instructor, speak up. It is your right as a consumer.

PERSPECTIVE
Dude, refresh your daily vocabulary
I never fails to amaze me that as I walk on campus from all of the wacky grammar and sayings I hear getting tossed about. The word "dude" can be used by college students as any part of speech if in a bind or short on words.
There are even sayings that have lost their flair. The ones that no longer make the listener's eyes get all big and then they ask you to repeat what you just said because it was so cool. This is why I have compiled the following list of phrase and word substitutions to make your verbal day an怒 of articulated wonders.
Just imagine the help it could give you on Western Civ essays. (John Locke was a dude who thought that other dudes were self-determining dudes...)
"Dude!" (see example above) can be replaced with, "Hello there, it's been all too long since we got together and talked over a couple of beers."
COMMENTARY
Of course there are other things that come up in casual conversations. "The football team sucks" can be replaced with "I find the sub-par handling of the pigskin frustrating and embarrassing to my academic goals at this fine University."

Can't you feel your popularity rising with every sentence?
What about those Monday morning classes when someone asks you what you did over the weekend. Instead of, "I got so drunk," say, "Friday I ingested an inappropriate amount of alcohol, which resulted in the loss of my Saturday afternoon, as I was hung over."
You may be asking yourself, "What if I don't drink or follow the football team? How can I electrify my conversational sentence structure?"
Think about what you like to do. Let's say that you enjoy doing homework. If someone
asks how you spent your weekend, don't just say you spent it at home writing that English paper. Instead, tell them you "were the self-appointed construction manager of a colossal grammar project." They might think you're an engineer, but what's wrong with that?
Now, dialogue and catch-phrases cannot be discussed without mentioning the art of flirting.
It is important to conceal the underlying message of "I think you're hot" when talking to someone you like. So pad these words, by instead saying, "I think we have a lot in common." There is also, "I love you," which is hard to say unless in a committed relationship. Instead, try using, "When I am with you, I enjoy life more and the overall experience of dating people."
So now you are ready for a new start to that possibly blond conversation. Just remember, if you ever find yourself at a loss for words, remain calm and say the first thing that comes to mind: "I love you."

Business group could win its way around the world
NEWS
By Mike Gilligan Kansan staff writer
A KU organization may be $8,000 richer and on its way to Amsterdam this summer.
That's the prize if the University of Kansas group Students in Free Enterprise wins the national SIFE competition in Kansas City, Mo., May 12 to 14. The four-year-old KU branch of the group advanced to SIFE nationals after it won the Midwest regional competition in Denver. The team competed against schools like the University of Colorado and the University of Oklahoma.
Laura Johnston, Belleville, Ill.. senior and SIFE member, said the 15-member group was designed to teach others about free enterprise and business. Only eight students will present their work at the national competition.
Jeff Morrow, SIFE advisor and business lecturer, said he was impressed with this year's group.
"We've done some stuff that's pretty amazing," he said.
Morrow said SIFE was a volunteer group that students joined. He said about 80 percent of the students were business maiors.
Morrow said the group had worked on many projects this year such as an Internet-based curriculum for teachers and a youth entrepreneurship project.
Laura Haught, Emporia sophomore and SIFE member, said the group developed the curriculum to help teachers with banking, finance, credit and marketing.
She said teachers could use the Web site to teach different aspects of business.
"There are different lesson plans and a quiz at the end to see what you've learned," she said.
Haught said the group also helped the Pelathe Community Resource Center, 1423 Haskell Ave., start a business. She said the center wanted consultation on starting a business selling T-shirts and SIFE helped out by offering consultations.
The group presented both the Internet-based curriculum and the Pelathe project in Denver, and will present these projects at nationals.
Haught said she thought the KU SIFE group had a good chance of winning nationals.
"Some of the other groups help kids with bake sales and things like that, but we are making a bigger impact by helping teachers teach kids."
Morrow said 64 teams would be competing at the national competition, and if the team won, it would win a trip to Amsterdam for the global competition.
He said because of the cost, only eight people would go to Amsterdam if the team won. He said SIFE would decide later which of the 15 members would go.

employees. Because the hospital and the School of Medicine are not connected financially, there is no plan in place for the hospital to bail the School of Medicine out of financial woes, said Bob Hallinan, media relations coordinator for the Med Center.

In 1998, the School of Medicine and the hospital split and the hospital became privately owned.
"We did it so we could compete in Kansas City without state guidelines to follow." Hallinan said.
The hospital creates revenue from the services it provides, but the School of Medicine operates on state funding and tuition from students. The hospital is not dependent on state money, so it will not be affected by the $700-million state budget shortfall.

Shelter may be open in summer
By Lauren Beatty
Kansan staff writer
For the first time in 15 years, the Salvation Army homeless shelter could be open during the upcoming summer months.
The Lawrence City Commission voted 5-0 Tuesday night to donate $20,000 to the shelter, 946 New Hampshire St. The shelter is trying to raise $60,000, the total amount needed for the summer.
"This community is a caring and compassionate place," Mayor Sue Hack said. "We felt that this was a modest request that we could do and needed to do. We are stewards of the city's money and many in the city have indicated their willingness to help."
Capt. Carolyn Schuetz of the Salvation Army said if the shelter was open during the shelter, it would prevent the homeless from having to look for a new place to stay.
"One of the things that happens when we close in April, is the client is back into homelessness and causes
them to start all over again," she said. "It's nice to have continuity for the client instead of stopping and starting."
Schuetz said while people were staying at the shelter, they must demonstrate progress toward finding a job or permanent home. They also have to see n social worker. She said about 34 people stayed at the shelter per night.
"Often you would get people in there and they just don't have anywhere else to go, especially when it's 90 degrees out," she said. "It's not really a problem, but sometimes you get people that have mental problems and other patrons get kind of weirded out, so if they have a place to go, I think it would be better so they don't have to go searching in public buildings for someplace to stay."
Sarah Lunn, Lawrence senior worked at the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont St., and said she used to see homeless people hanging around there in the summer.
"This community is a caring and compassionate place."
Sue Hack
Mayor of Lawrence
Jacy Wolfe, Lawrence senior, said he thought opening the shelter yearround was a good idea.
"Whenever you go to the public library in the summertime you always see a lot of homeless folks in there. I think because it's nice and cool in there," he said. "If they have a place to go where it's not so hot outside, I'm sure that would be advantageous."
The Salvation Army has $15,000 left to raise. Schuetz said she would continue to seek donations from the public.

House rejects new ID bill
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — The House rejected a bill supporters saw as an attempt to balance concerns about security and identity theft with a desire by some lawmakers to allow undocumented workers to drive legally.
House members voted 60-57 yesterday against advancing the measure to final action.
It remained on the debate calendar and still could be considered.
The bill would fight identity theft by requiring U.S. citizens who apply for a new driver's license or renew one after July 1,2003 to submit a facial photo kept as a digital image in a computer database.
It would address post-Sept. 11 security concerns by requiring noncitizens — whether they are in the U.S. legally or not — to submit both the photo and a thumb print or other identifier to obtain permission to drive.
That permission would be a temporary driving permit, good for a year.
Advocates for immigrants and Hispanic groups wanted legislators to allow non-citizens to receive regular driver's licenses, good for six years, with a tax identification number from the Internal Revenue Service.
They have argued undocumented workers drive anyway.
The temporary permit - which would resemble but not be identical to a citizen's license - is an attempt to deal with that issue.
But critics said non-citizens still could get a permit for longer than they could stay legally in the United States.
The measure also would increase fees by $1.50 to offset the Division of Vehicle's costs.
A person with a six-year noncommercial Class C license would pay $18.50 instead of the current $17 in license, photo and exam charges.

WICHITA — Martin and Gracia Burnham are as healthy as could be expected, in spite of 10 months of captivity in the Philippine jungle, according to the missionary organization that supports them.
Florida-based New Tribes Mission said yesterday the news came from sources it had built in its decades of mission work in the country.
Martin Burnham's family has received few updates on the kidnapped couple since they appeared emaciated and exhausted in a videotaped November interview.
"It means they're alive," Martin Burnham's father, Paul Burnham, said from his Rose Hill home. "We really don't know what they mean when we hear they're 'OK.' We think it means they aren't sick or injured."
They were glad to hear that, contrary to some reports, Martin and Gracia have not been separated, he said.
the missionaries were among 20 people kidnapped May 27 by the Abu Sayyaf from a Philippines island resort. The Burnham's
were at the resort celebrating their wedding anniversary.
Sorting through the many rumors that have poured from the Philippines concerning their son and daughter-in-law's situation has become a regular chore for Paul Burnham and his wife, Oreta.
In the past few months, they've heard false reports ranging from a release to impending rescue attempts.
New Tribes spokesman Scott Ross, said the latest news comes from local contacts in the Philippines that the mission trusts. He wouldn't elaborate on who they were.
While it's good to hear that Martin and Gracia are surviving, Ross said, there is still no question that they're without proper food and rest.
"We don't think their situation has improved since November, so their health probably continues to deteriorate," he said. "Time is still an urgency."
House debates disaster training bills

TOPEKA — Legislation to improve the state's disaster training and response advanced in the House yesterday after one member leveled accusations of politics, favoritism and fiscal irresponsibility.
The House debated two bills allowing the adjutant general to hire one halftime and nine full-time employees to train emergency personnel and be available to assist cities, counties and local volunteers in disasters.
The Senate has already passed the measures, which are so-called "enabling"billsthatauthorize creation of the new positions but do not fund them.
House members advanced them on a voice vote to final action, expected Thursday, after Rep. Carlos Mayans questioned some proponents' motives.
state's adjutant general, to visit Kansas guard members.
Mayans suggested some legislators supported the bills because they planned to travel to Europe on April 18 with Maj. Gen. Greg Gardner, the
"I don'tbelieve we should be developing public policy based on if we get to take a free vacation or not," said Mayans, R-Wichita, a member of the House Select Committee on Kansas Security.
With Gardner on the House floor during the debate, Mayans also questioned why the bills, which would cost $698,000, had not gone through the House Appropriations Committee. The figure includes the cost to equip new employees.
Rep. Carl Krehbiel, R-Moundridge, chairman of the security committee, said the bills only allowed Gardner to hire the additional staff when money becomes available.
He added: "Just for the record, no,
I'm not flying on the trip to Germany."
Mayans also questioned Gardner's management.
"We're asking to use money for something that we should already be doing." Mayans said. He said the programs amount, in his mind, to repetitive training.
Gardner later said Mayans' allegations were not true, adding: "I don't understand the motivation."
Eight legislators are to travel with Gardner to Germany to visit members of the 2nd Battalion of the 137th Infantry and the 190th Air Refueling Wing based in Topeka.
The 137th is participating in Task Force Santa Fe, which is supporting active duty troops by filling security missions at various locations.
Expected to make the trip are Sens. Jay Scott Emler, R-Lindsborg; Rip Gooch, D-Wichita; Chris Steineger, D-Kansas City; Jean Schodorf, R-Wichita; and Ruth Teichman, R-Stafford; and Reps. Lisa Benlon, R-Shawnee, and Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, House Majority Leader Shari Weber, R-Herington, was also invited but has a prior family commitment.

College graduates still hurting from latest recession difficulties
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — When Jeffrey Levy finished college in December, he figured by spring he'd have a new job on Wall Street, earning $40,000-plus a year and celebrating his success by looking for his own apartment.
Four months later, Levy is still in his parent's house. He spends day after day at the computer, prospecting for a job online
Thousands of students awaiting their
own graduation ceremonies at college campuses across the country are encountering much the same discouragement
It's not just that it's tough to find a job. Even as employers make offers, the extra challenge for the newest entrants to the work force is letting the air out of expectations artificially inflated by the past decade's record economic boom.
That means fewer offers, often for less prestigious jobs, at lower pay and with greatly reduced extra incentives.
"People anticipated when they came into business school that 'If I do well, it's all going to happen.'" said Richard Shafer, associate dean of the graduate management school at Cornell University. "The fact that, all of a sudden, that is not true has sort of a been a mindbender."
At Cornell and nine other business schools, with barely a month until graduation just 58 percent of MBA graduates have jobs. That is down from more than 80 percent at the same time in recent years.
Lawyer's arrest may test privilege
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The arrest of a defense lawyer accused of crossing the line and helping a radical Muslim cleric direct his terrorist circle from behind bars could lead to a pitched battle over attorney-client privilege.
New York lawyer Lynne F. Stewart was indicted yesterday on federal charges of helping her client, Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman, send messages of terror from his Minnesota prison
cell.
Stewart said attorney-client privilege would be the centerpiece of her defense. She suggested the government had no evidence she went beyond the bounds of constitutionally protected attorney-client conversations.
The government alleges she crossed a well-defined legal line. Prosecutors say Stewart made it easier for the Egyptian cleric, serving a life term for conspiring to blow up New York landmarks, to
convey terrorist messages through a translator. In one instance, they said, Stewart distracted prison guards to do so.
Attorney General John Ashcroft also said the Justice Department would monitor future conversations between the sheik and his lawyers — marking the first time the department had invoked a provision in the USA Patriot Act. The act was signed into law Oct. 26, giving the government broad powers to fight terrorism.

Investigators were trying to determine if the American Airlines 767's parking brake was properly set, Johnson said. He did not know who parked the jet or if the small blocks normally put next to airplane wheels to keep the plane from moving had been used.

"An investigation is under way as to how the aircraft managed to move on its own," American Airlines said in an issued statement.
Airport spokeswoman Nancy Castles said one of the plane's engines was scratched, so the Federal Aviation Administration will have to ensure it is flightworthy. That was the only apparent damage to the aircraft.

What if I want to become pregnant after using DEPO-PROVERA Contraceptive Pill?
Because DEPO-PROVENA is a long waiting birth control method, it takes more time after your last injection.
Immediate Maternal Breeding
The side effect report most frequently by women who use DEPO-PROVERA for the side effects in their normal maternal cycle. During the first year of using DEPO-PROVERA, you might have one or two side effects such as decreased vision or decrease in maternal bleeding or no bleeding apprehended before birth. If any of these conditions are a usual effect or continuous bleeding however is not a usual effect and this happens, you should see your husband or your partner as soon as possible to see your husband or your partner. With continued use of DEPO-PROVERA and many women stop having periods completely in clinical studies of DEPO-PROVERA 55% of the women studied breastfeed (breastfeed) and 30% of the women reported no maternal bleeding (breastfeed). The years of use. The reason that your period stops is because DEPO-PROVERA causes a resting state in your own uterus. Even if your period does not occur and therefore the bleeding that comes with your normal menstruation does not take place, when you cycle with DEPO-PROVERA your menstrual period will usually start. Return to your regular menstrual cycle.
Use of DEPDQ-PROVERA may be associated with a decrease in the amount of mineral stored in bones. The could increase your risk of developing bone fractures. The rate of bone mineral loss is greatest in the early years of DEPDQ-PROVERA use, but after that, it begins to resorb the normal rate of age-related bone mineral loss.
**Tumor Cancer**
women who have used different forms of contraception found that women who used DIPPOVORA for contraception had no increased risk of breast cancer, uterine cancer, or cervical cancer. The safety of 4- and 5-year-old girls when exposure to the previous 4 to 5 years may have a slightly higher risk of developing breast cancer similar to that seen with oral contraceptives. You should discuss this with your doctor.
Because DEPO-PROVERA is such an effective contraceptive method, the risk of accidental pregnancy for women with pre-existing health regressions (every 1 month [13 weeks]) is very low and the risk of an increased risk of low birth weight and neonatal infant death or other health problems in infants concerned close to the time of injection, such pregnancies are uncommon. If you think you may have become pregnant while using DEPO-PROVERA for contraception, your health-care provider as soon as possible.
Aclereptate Infections
Some women using DEFO-PINDRA-IVDRA. Contraceptive injection have reported severe and potentially life-threatening aclereptate reactions known as anaphylaxis and anaphylactic reactions.
Symptoms include the sudden cover of hives or swelling and itching of the skin, breathing and include a drop in blood pressure.
6. Other Risks
6. Other Rails
Use a hormone-based contraceptives may have an increased risk of blood clots or ulcers. Also if a contraceptive method fails there is a possibility that the fertilized egg will begin to develop outside of the uterus (ectopic pregnancy) and those events are rare you should take your healthcare provider's advice about these problems while using **DEP0-PROVERA**

Missouri's Rush to enter draft, skip senior year
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Kareem Rush said yesterday that he would skip his senior season at Missouri and enter the NBA draft.
At a news conference, with coach Quin Snyder at his side, Rush didn't completely rule out a last-minute decision to stay at Missouri. But he made it clear that's not something he plans to do.
Rush hasn't hired an agent, a move that would have prohibited his return under NCAA rules. Rush has until a week before the June 26 draft to change his mind. He backed away from earlier statements in which he said he would enter the draft only if projections indicated he would be a lottery pick — that is, one of the first 13 players selected.
"I plan on being one," Rush said of being a lottery pick. "I'm
going to go out there and prove I should be one."
The 6-foot-6 Rush is a two-time All-Big 12 pick who averaged 19.8 points this season in helping lead the Tigers to the NCAA Tournament's West Regional final, where Missouri lost to Oklahoma 81-75.
Missouri In 84 career games at Missouri, Rush averaged 18.9 points, second only to Derrick Chievous' 19.9 average from 1985-1988.
19.9 average
Snyder said it was always clear that Rush had a talent for scoring.
But this year, he said Rush learned to see the game at a higher level. Snyder said there were games where Rush struggled to score but led the team in rebounds and assists.
Rush and his older brother, JaRon, led Pembroke Hill High School of Kansas City, Mo., to the Missouri Class 2A state championships in 1997, 1998 and 1999.
But the school had to forfeit
those titles after it was learned an AAU coach paid the brothers. Both were suspended for part of the 1999-2000 season, with JaRon missing 24 games at UCLA and Kareem nine at Missouri.
JaRon left UCLA after his sophomore season two years ago, believing he was ready for the NBA. There were no takers in the NBA draft, and he since has drifted through the fringes of the sport. In February, he was cut by the Kansas City Knights of the minor-league ABA after missing practice.
"I asked him for advice, but he really didn't have much to say," Kareem Rush said. "He said, 'Just trust your heart.'"
Snyder said he didn't specifically recommend to Rush whether to stay or go, and Rush said he didn't get that sort of advice from anyone. Rather, he made the choice on his own.

maintain it."
CARBONDALE, Ill. — Bruce Weber said yesterday that he would remain the men's basketball coach at Southern Illinois for at least another season.
"We're happy here," Weber, who led the Salukis last month to the Sweet Sixteen round of the NCAA tournament in his fourth year in Bondale.
Last week. Weber took his name out of consideration for the coaching job at West Virginia.
Weber, however, declined to comment on whether he might move on after the 2002-2003 season.
"We have a pretty good team returning." Weber said. "We've got our program to another level, and now (the question) can we
sion:
The Salukis were 28-8 after losing to Connecticut 71-59 on March 22 in the Sweet Sixteen, landing Weber, a former Purdue assistant under Gene Keady, on the list of hot college-coaching prospects.
Weber said he casually discussed the open coaching post at Saint Louis with his friend, the school's athletic director Doug Woolard.
Texas Christian and New Mexico also contacted Paul Kowalczyk, SIU athletic director, for
permission to talk to Weber about jobs, the coach said.
"I've had some people call, but for the most part, the flurry is over." Weber said.
Kowalczyk said he didn't expect Weber to leave.
"He's built a heck of a program here, and I think he's loyal to the program and wants to see it succeed." Kowalczyk said.
Weber has had winning teams all four years with the Salukis, including a 20-13 mark and an NIT bid in 2000. That year, he signed a four-year, $200,000-a-year contract that includes $50,000 bonuses for postseason play as well as other incentives.

Hutchinson: An unlikely locale
In 81 short days, the entire world will turn its attention to our beloved state for the 57th U.S. Women's Golf Open Championship.
From July 1 to 7, 150 of the world's best female professional and amateur golf players will make the journey to the middle of nowhere, also known as Hutchinson.
For those of you who have never had the opportunity to travel to this bustling metropolis, you're not missing a thing—honest. Most people don't even know where Hutch is. Just think up and to the left of Wichita. After growing up in this area, I wonder which act of God brought such a prestigious tournament to south-central Kansas.
This town, population 40,000, is expected to attract international media attention and more than 100,000 visitors. NBC and ESPN will have all seven days of coverage from Hutch. Golfers like Annika Sorenstam, Juli Inkster and 20-year-old Se Ri Pak will spend their time in between rounds poolside at the Motel 6.
There's really not much else to do.
But if anyone is planning on making the three hour trip south to catch a glimpse of history, there are a few things that will help the week fly by.
Begin with the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center, 1100 N. Plum St. There you will find a bunch of rocks in an airtight box and a few old spacesuits. Actually this place is pretty cool, but after taking 400 field trips there during grade school, the excitement kind of wears off.
Hutchinson is also home to the Kansas State Fairgrounds, a place guaranteed to have a weekend flea-market, cattle show and quilt auction rolled into one gigantic party.
All this sightseeing will undoubtedly make a tourist hungry, but be picky with your choice of restaurants. Last year, a handful of establishments tested positive for spreading Hepatitis A, leading to a mass vaccination of the town's residents. But I'm sure that's all cleared up by now.
An adventure all in itself lies just down the road from Hutch, in a teeny-tiny Amish town named Yoder. Once you see the horses and buggies, you've made it. Some of the most raw athletic talent in the state of Kansas is in Yoder. Those Amish children can run faster and jump higher than most other kids, all while wearing itchy slacks and ankle-length dresses.
But if all you are looking to do is check out a great round of golf, the tournament will take place at the Prairie Dunes Country Club, 4812 E. 30th St., golf course. The course was ranked 13th nationally by Golf Digest, and Sports Illustrated ranked the eighth hole as the best eight in the country.
Tickets will range in cost from $15 for a one-day practice-round ticket to $200 for a Flex Book, which consists of 10 tickets redeemable for daily tickets on any day of the event. Tickets can be ordered at the Prairie Dunes Web site, www.prairiedunes.com.
The benefits of the U.S. Open to Hutchinson are not only economic. Some people might even learn where Hutch is. The international crowd will enjoy the friendly atmosphere and the small-town hospitality that this Kansas town provides. Hey, maybe I'll even make the trip back for it.

Jayhawks pull off victory in ninth inning comeback
By Ryan Wood Kansan sportswriter
If the Kansas baseball team looked a little flat during yesterday's 6-5 victory over Nebraska-Omaha, there's probably a pretty good reason why.
Coming off a 9-1 upset victory over No. 8 Wichita State on Tuesday, the Jayhawks (15-15) struggled to find the intensity last night that propelled them to victory just one day earlier.
"You come into a game like this," junior outfeilder Bobby Bartow said, "and it's hard to get up after a night like last night."
With the score tied 3-3 in the eighth, Maverick first baseman Justin Cook knocked a run-scoring single and broke the stalemate. Nebraska-Omaha (15

"I knew that wasn't going to be an easy game," coach Bobby Randall said.
Kansas was able to overcome, though. After junior first baseman Casey Spanish walked to lead off the inning, freshman second baseman Travis Metcalf singled to put the tying runs on base.
Freshman pitcher Tyson Bothof throws a pitch during Kansas' game against Nebraska-Omaha at Hoglund Ballpark. The 'Hawks won yesterday's game in the ninth inning.
"A lot of things can happen," Randall said, "but I still feel like we had a ball club that could come back and win the game."
Randall called on junior Bobby Bartow to pinch-hit, with the sole purpose of providing a sacrifice bunt to move the runners up. Bartow, though, fouled off both attempts.
Junior Kevin Wheeler crosses home plate as junior Casey Spanish rounds third after a fourth-inning single by junior Beau Thompson. The Kansas baseball team beat Nebraska-Omaha 6-5 and played Hoglund Ballpark.
"I feel I'm a pretty solid bunter," Barrow said, "but I guess not tonight."
No matter what Bartow thought of his bunting, he did a good job hitting. He calmly stroked a single to center field, driving in Spanish and putting the win in reach.
After a Maverick miscue tied the game up, Bartow came home with the game-winner off a wild pitch. It was the Jayhawks' second walk-off win of the season.
"We didn't panic," Randall said. "We had three good at-bats in a row."
Nebraska-Omaha used seven different pitchers, and the Jayhawks never got comfortable offensively. They had just five hits in the game, and no one had more than one.
"We didn't adjust very well, and that's hard," Randall said. "To their credit, they threw strikes, and we didn't handle it like we should have."
Chris Smart (1-2) got the win in relief. The sophomore pitched four innings.
allowing two runs and striking out four. Freshman Tyson Bothof started for Kansas, pitching five innings and allowing three runs.
The Jayhawks return to Big 12 Conference action Friday when Texas Tech comes to town. Bartow said he felt the pair of midweek victories would provide good momentum for the weekend.
"We know we can play this game," he said. "We just need to show it to everybody else and we need to start playing this way in conference games."

A day after sweeping Southwest Missouri State, the Kansas softball team was fortunate to get a split in the doubleheader against Wichita State. The Jayhawks game back in the seventh inning yesterday to win the first game 3-2, but fell short in the second game and lost 4-3.
"We've got some kids pressing in big situations," coach Tracy Bunge said. "We've got kids who are just not relaxed, and they're upright. They're out front early, they're not disciplined as far as pitch selection, and all those

Lack of money in USBL may keep Boschee away
Kansas Cagerz coach Francis Flax was thrilled that his team drafted former Kansas Jayhawk guard Jeff Boschee on Tuesday with its No. 1 pick.
By Brent Wasko
Kansan sportswriter
The only problem is that Boschee may have no interest in playing for the Cagerz or any other any professional basketball team.
"We heard beforehand that he might not want to play for us, but we also knew there's a chance he could change his mind," Flax said. "If he should change his mind, we have a lot to offer him."
The Cagerz play at the Bicentennial Center in Salina and are a member of the United States Basketball League. The 10-team league was created so former college basketball players would have the opportunity to showcase their skills in competitive games with NBA scouts watching from the stands.
Boschee indicated a few weeks ago that he would only continue playing basketball if he would make a significant amount of money.
Otherwise, he wanted to look into becoming a coach. The top salary in the USBL is $500 a week.
"It will be a letdown to me if he doesn't play for us. It would also be disappointing to our fans." Flax said. "The exposure he could gain by playing here would be incredible. Historically, we've had winning basketball teams."
Flax said he had not talked with Boschee about the possibility of playing for the Cagerz. Boschee did not return telephone messages from the
Kansan left at his residence in Lawrence yesterday afternoon.
Despite not hearing from Boschee, Flax remains optimistic that he can talk the Jayhawks' all-time three-point

shooter into signing with the Cagerz.
"He would bring tremendous fan appeal and a great shooting touch to this organization," Flax said. "The USBL style of play is made for him. With only 24 seconds on the shot clock, he would get even more looks at the basket than he did at KU."
Boschee wasn't the only former Jayhawk to get some attention in the USBL on Tuesday, Kenny Gregory, a forward at Kansas from 1997 to 2001, signed a one-year contract to play for the Dodge City Legend. The terms of his contract were undisclosed.
Gregory will play alongside Darrin Hancock, who was a member of the 1993 Kansas Final Four team.
Legend general manager Tom Nelson said having former Kansas stars on the team would add to the atmosphere at games in Dodge City.
"There's not a whole lot of entertainment options down here, so we typically have pretty good attendance at our games," Nelson said. "Getting those local guys is a goal of ours."

Wichita State scored again in the top of the sixth on another Kansas error, this one by senior third baseman Megan Urquhart, and took the 2-1 lead.
But the hayhawks battled back in the bottom of the seventh. With one out, sophomore catcher Dani May singled up the third base line. Senior center fielder Shelly Musser followed with a line drive to center that advanced May to third.

After Musser stole second, Weinstein hit a grounder to the shortstop and May slid under the throw at home for the 2-2 tie. With runners on first and third, senior right fielder Leah Tabb stepped to the plate. The Wichita State catcher tried to catch Weinstein stealing second, but the throw was errant, allowing Musser to score for the 3-2 victory.
After sneaking out a victory in game one, the Jayhawks allowed Wichita State to gain some confidence back in the first inning of game two. Another error by a Kansas infielder, senior second baseman Amy Hulse, allowed the Shockers two runs and the lead.

After Wichita State's offense was shut down by Jayhawk pitcher Chris Jones, Stephenson compared Jones' pitching to that of a "slow-pitch softball pitcher," and added that "if he were that good of a pitcher, he would have been pitching a lot for the team. Lord knows they need it."
"I know one thing," Randall said. "I was pretty proud of our guy. That's the comment."

AARON SHOWALTER/KANSAN
Desdemona's servant Emilia, played by Mo Perry, Eden Prairie, Minn., junior, paints the toenails of the title character, played by Sarah Armstrong, Cushing, Okla., graduate student, during a dress rehearsal performance. The play, directed by Joy Richmond, Houston graduate student, opened last week and continues with shows this weekend.
Female production explores Bard's one-dimensional, tragic characters
By Becky McClelland Jayplay writer
"Director's Note: Within an hour after the events you see tonight, Desdemona and Emilia are murdered by their husbands."
While the outcome written in the play's program might not shock anyone who has seen Othello, the way Desdemona: A Play About a Handkerchief gets to its end is guaranteed to surprise.
Desdemona doesn't retell the Othello story as much as it gives the women characters' perspectives of the Shakespeare tragedy.
"Desdemona could stand on its own, but it's a great companion piece for Othello," said Sara Armstrong, Cushing, Okla., graduate student who plays Desdemona. "Shakespeare is known for showing universal truth, a universal spirit, but how well does he capture women?"
In *Othello*, Desdemona is the title character's wife, but her character is not explored as much.
The switch in titles from Othello to Desdemona emphasizes the shift in focus. No male characters come on stage during Desdemona and Shakespeare's one-dimensional females come to life — no longer the stereotypical faithful servant, virtuous virgin bride or dirty whore.
"I'm glad as hell that the feminists wrote an answer to it," said Mo Perry, Eden Prairie, Minn., junior, who plays Emilia the servant.

RAWK SNOB Springtime sounds echo warm weather, flavors of season
The pleasantly warm/bitterly cold Kansas spring weather didactic is leaning toward the brighter side these days. The sun is shining, the entire bird and squirrel population is engaging in primal domestic disputes at the crack of dawn and, yes — mangoes are once again in season, and can be obtained right here in Lawrence, three for a dollar.
Bombarded with
Bombarded with sunshine, cries of the animal kingdom and the ever-present distraction of exotic produce, the first signs of spring, like the frozen desert nights of many a country tune, are enough to change a man's mind. Over the past couple of evenings, with the windows open wide and warm air chasing off a long winter's funk, I've been exploring some of the moldier recesses of my record collection, taking a break from a steady diet of guitar feedback to enjoy some vibrant springtime sounds from a world where cocktails flow like tap water and everyone wears a furry red fez.

Award-winning poet performs at workshop
By Lean Snamer
Kansan staff writer
staceyann Chin is an acclaimed slam poet whose works practically ooze with sexually charged verse. But the first thing the audience learned about her during yesterday's slam workshop was that she liked chicken and cheese sandwiches and cheering up old ladies.
About 50 students attended the Queers and Allies-sponsored workshop, which was at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. The event gave the participants a taste of the poetry slam movement. Chin described slam poetry as being different from the traditional poetry reading.
"I practice believing in the small things, so I can believe in the rest." Chin said.

The slam movement was started in the early 1980s in Chicago by construction worker Marc Smith. Smith started to jazz up his poetry readings by focusing on his per-

Kansas' anti-sodomy laws unfairly target homosexuals
Queer students at the University of Kansas have a little bit more to worry about than most other students. You see, not only can queers be arrested for a minor in possession by the Alcohol Beverage Control, or caught smoking the reefer by a bored resident assistant; they can be arrested for one of the other "naughty" activities college students like the most—having sex.
Yes, Kansas is one of only four distinguished states in the US of A that have anti-sodomy laws that target same-sex sexual acts exclusively.
If caught, queers in question
If caught, queers in question who were daring enough to defy Kansas law and have sex could face six months in jail and/or a fine of $1,000 — just for doing something many same-sex couples do nightly or maybe weekly.
But, at least we aren't in Oklahoma. Same sex couples caught daring to act like "normal" couples in the state directly to our

SEXCOLUMN
south may face up to 10 years in jail. Texas and Missouri round out the quartet of states with unfair laws against queers — at least for now.
Queers reading this article should bear me for a second, I'm mainly talking to all the heteros out there right now. Can you imagine having to break the law to have sex with the man or woman of your choice? It's exhausting enough to deal with all the personal issues involved in a sexual encounter — adding legal pitfalls in among the body angst and penile worry would take most of us breeders — otherwise known as heterosexuals — right out of the game.
to bestiality or child molesting, you should realize that there are few differences between the kind of sex queers have and the kind that straights have.
Sure, some queer people have anal sex — but straight people do too. In fact, according to a survey of college students done by Playboy, more men and women have had anal sex than men and women who have been in a threesome involving two guys and a woman, ortwo women and a man. The only difference between the types of anal sex is that "queer" anal sex.
It's tempting to think that, maybe, those crazy queers are having sex SO different, so much more deviant than "normal" straight-people sex, it should be illegal. But, in nine other states, including Florida, North Carolina and Virginia, ANY couple engaged in sodomy should keep an eye out for the boys in blue. So before you start comparing homosexual sex

illegal, while "straight" anal sex is not.
queer. And, again, the only difference between "queer" and "straight" oral experiences is who is moving their mouth down south and who is lucky enough to be getting the action. This certainly doesn't sound like much reason to make oral sex illegal for those members of the queer community who happen to like that kind of thing — or any other sexual kind of thing for that matter.
In the (rear) end, or in the front or wherever else you please — sex is sex. And as long as the sex you are having isn't with a child or with someone against his or her will, there isn't anything wrong with it. It's just too bad that the legislature of this great-if you're-straight state, and all other states who poke their noses into the private lives of American citizens, can't realize this and stop enforcing stupid, unfounded laws against queers.
Female best friend important to some homosexual men
E-mail Meghan at mbainum@kansan.com
In honor of Pride Week, I decided it would be appropriate to write my column on homosexual relationships; therefore, it may come as a surprise that this column is about a male/female relationship.
Often overlooked in the gay world is the role of the female best friend. Some homosexual men comment that she is the backbone of the gay community, who offers unconditional love, support and fashion advice.
It is for this reason I interviewed Allison Hansen, a University of Kansas student who is a self-proclaimed "alternative lifestyle assistant."
Allison: Just call me a "fag hag."
James: Isn't fag hag a derogatory term?
Allison: Not really. In this context, it is a term of endearment.
James: So what, exactly, is a fag hag?
Allison: Have you ever seen Will & Grace? Grace and Karen are prime examples of fag hags.
James: So who would you more likely be, Grace or Karen?
but if he has a particular guy he would want me to help him pick up. I would gladly comply.
RELATIONSHIPS COLUMN
Allison: It goes both ways. He helps me, I help him if he needs it. Like last week we were at American Eagle and I told him to try on a smaller shirt. He told me it wouldn't look right, but he finally did and it fit tight and he looked totally hot. I was like, "Fag hag knows what she's talking about!"
RELATIONSHIP & COLUMN
james: So does he ever help you find boys?
James: What about other kinds of advice? How else do you guide him in life?
James Manning
jmanning@kansan.com
Allison: Well. I guess my personality is more like Grace, but my chest is more like Karen's.
James: So how did you get in your current relationship with a gay man?
James: So does he ever expect you to help him meet guys?
Allison: I moved in with a friend of mine. He's bi.
Actually, he's gay, but he [fools] around with girls occasionally.
Allison: No, it hasn't yet. One time he wanted to make out with one of my friends, and that kind of hurt my feelings, because it was just the three of us, and I didn't have anything to do.
Allison: I'm not sure if he trusts my taste all of the time, because we like totally different types of guys.
Allison: No comment.
James: Does this make you jealous?
James: Or anyone, you mean?
Allison: He's the only boy I shop with. He's sensitive, but he
Allison: Well, like I said, we have different taste. But he definitely encourages me if I see someone I like.
James: So are all the stereotypes true about gay friends? Like, do they make good shopping partners? Are they more sensitive?
doesn't cry at every frickin' sad part of a movie. And he doesn't talk with a lisp. Quite honestly, he's not very good at the typical "fag" role, and I'm not that good at the "hag" role either.
James: So are you marching in the gay pride parade this week to support him?
Allison: He didn't want to go, but I convinced him. We're going to wear cute T-shirts. Look for us.
James: What do the shirts say?
Allison: It's a surprise.
James: Speaking of surprises, what is the biggest surprise about living with a gay man?
Allison: He has so many damned clothes. He can for four months without needing to do laundry.
James: What do your friends think about the relationship?
Allison: My friends love him. And I do, too.

John Williams' music in 'E.T.' better than ever
Ownership of a television, VCR and a 52 cent Dillons rental tape can bring incredible worlds into the comfort of any college student's home, but at times, the setup just does not do a film justice. Fortunately for marketing geniuses in Hollywood, theater re-releases allow movie buffs to see great flicks in all of their massive screen, deafening score wonder as in the case of the E.T. The Extra Terrestrial, now in theaters celebrating 20 years since its debut.
The release has generated a substantial pile o. controversy due to its digital enhancement, computer-altered shots, slightly changed dialogue and the addition of a brand new scene. Let me be the first to tell all film soapbox snobs who find film alternation akin to say, cheating on a test or murder, that everybody should go to the film.
The advice isn't based on the notion that one should see the work of Spielberg, but instead everybody should definitely hear the work of John Williams, whose Academy Award-winning score is brighter, richer and louder than ever.
Williams has composed some of the most memorable pieces of music of our time because the music is so often associated with interesting characters on screen. It seems that almost anybody can hum of few bars of the themes to Star Wars, Indiana Jones or Jaws, all classic scores by the 70-year-old composer. He is known for his warm, uplifting melodies that augment the emotion of important scenes. In E.T. Williams' powers parallel the little brown alien's in helping lift the children's bicycles from the ground.
Director and longtime Williams collaborator Steven Spielberg knew that no other musician could provide the musical magic to his film. According to the film's Web site, Spielberg said of Williams, "He can take a tear that's just forming in your eye and cause it to drip."
Williams never sees the films or reads the scripts before he creates the music, which gives him more ability to imagine the music as its own entity. This proved to be an impossibility with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, since he had read the book to his grandchildren long before being recruited to write its score.
Some of Williams' most beautiful scores are overshadowed by the catchier Hollywood standards. Schindler's List, for instance, captures extremely haunting violin strains performed by Itzhak Perlman. The combined experience of eye-opening black and white photography with heart-wrenching music earned Spielberg his first and Williams his fifth Academy Award.
Another scoring masterpiece is Oliver Stone's JFK. Williams wrote a military-style drum corps that accompanies John F. Kennedy along the historic parade route toward his death. A favorite of mine is the bright and brassy theme that tracks the helicopter along the rocky coast of Jurassic Park.
For the re-released E.T., Williams' music was digitized and separated into six tracks to enhance each portion of the orchestra. It sounds more remarkably full than previous releases of the film. Twenty years later, the extra terrestrial is back and we are lucky to have him. Those 20 years have allowed the film, its director and its musical creator move into a well-aged limelight. Two decades have not changed the story of E.T., but the experience is enhanced, making it a worthwhile choice at the box office.

Osbournes TV's newest family
The Prince of Darkness reaches out to a new generation of music consumers with nothing more than the reality of his own family.
The new reality-based MTV comedy The Osbournes stars Ozzy Osbourne and the members of his clan as the not-so-typical family next door. The half-hour show, which airs at 9:30 p.m. on Tuesdays, focuses on the lives of Ozzy; Sharon, his workaholic wife and manager; Kelly, the 17-year-old spiky haired daughter; Jack, the rebellious 16-year-old whose drug use is common family knowledge; Melinda, the nanny; and Aimee, the rarely seen older daughter.
Oh yes, and a veritable menagerie of pets, which are featured doing what pets do best — mainly sleeping, pooping, peeing and playing — in the Osbourne's palatial home.
In the first six episodes, The Osbournes has rapidly added fans, enticed by scenes of neighbor rivalries, curfew debates and Ozzy's

"The fact that they say the "f" word all the time and still love each other breaks all stereotypes of the normal family," Erin Wessling, Denver sophomore, said. "This is the classic family only if you were fed Black Sabbath through an I.V. since birth."
While fans come back to watch the Osbournes on TV each week, local Lawrence music stores said they hadn't seen an increased interest in Ozzy's music.
Steve Wilson, manager of Kief's Downtown Music. 823 Massachusetts St., said he had not found a need to stock anything more than the used selection of Ozzy's music already featured.
"The godfather of metal on his own TV show leads to a lot of interesting discussions, but he is not prime college material." Wilson said.

Despite criminal past, resident wins election
OAK CREEK, Colo. — Newly elected Mayor Kathy Rodeman has been arrested more than a dozen times, admits having tried cocaine and marijuana, and recently wrestled a man to the ground in a bar fight.
But Rodeman, whose nickname is Cargo, insists that her past won't get in the way of her ability to govern this town of 800 people 110 miles northwest of Denver.
"I've made my share of mistakes. I'm not perfect," said Rodeman, a 30-year resident. "But I don't judge others. I don't think I'm better than anyone, but I know no one's better than me."
Rodeman's past didn't seem to bother town residents, who gave her 64 percent of the vote last week to defeat incumbent Deb VanGundy.
"They voted for what I believe in, not for my run-ins with cops," said Rodeman.
Rodeman's critics say her criminal past makes it difficult to take her seriously.
"This has just labeled us as the scum bucket of the county," said Calvin Morrow, who lost a bid for mayor a few years ago.
"I don't minimize my behavior but I
am not a bad guy," Rodeman said.
Safecrackers confident old safe can be opened
MEDFORD, Ore. — A bank safe locked shut for decades has been sent to a convention of expert safecrackers in Nevada who say they're confident they can open the rusted, century-old box.
Organizers of the Safe and Vault Technicians Convention, meeting this week in Reno, Nev., were among security specialists across the nation and in Canada all on the right side of the law who contacted museum curator Barbara Hegne asking for a crack at the safe.
The two-chamber safe was installed in the basement of the First State Bank of Eagle Point in 1911, and remained there until 1954. It was donated last year to the Eagle Point Museum by a private collector who only had one of the combinations.
Some offered to open the chamber for a fee; others just wanted to handle the unusual "cannonball" safe, she said. The 2,000-pound safe got its name from the spherical shape of the upper chest, created to prevent outlaws from using explosives to blow it open.
RAWK SNOB
indigenous percussion and the slinky bass lines are perfect for laid-back evenings on the front porch.
There is some very cool guitar work on the album as well, with riffs that meld eastern tones with rockabilly attitude to make the heads bob and the martinis spill. And if space-age pop explorations of rock and jazz alone don't sound enticing, shrieking spider monkeys, toucans and assorted humming insects make vocal cameos throughout the album.
The band of dogs who later cut "Jingle Bells" often site this record as breaking significant barriers for animal recording artists.
Though I've never seen the film this music accompanies, Vampyros Lesbos: Sexadelic Dance Party (Motel Records 1995) is a fascinating reissue of a 60s soundtrack that is every bit as bizarre as its title. Expanding upon the classic garage-psych equation of drums, organ, and bass, Vampyros Lesbos is a moderately-paced freak-out adorned with fuzz-drenched baritone guitars, armies of sitars droning in unison, and echoing, ghost-like vocal pyrotechnics. Basically, it's exactly the kind of sound you would expect from a haunted mansion filled with mischievous lesbian vampires. While it drags from time to time — and hey, it's a soundtrack, after all — Vampyros Lesbos is topnotch background music that is both novel and musically worthwhile.
When spring fever is sending your musical appetite over the edge, the far-out space-lounge sounds of the 60s can make excellent listening. But the moment anyone tries to tell anyone else how "money" they are, this Rawkobis is pulling the plug.

The mural on the side of Cork & Barrel Wine and Spirits, 901 Mississippi St., was added to the building in 1996 when the Community Mercantile grocery store occupied the space. The building has gone through many incarnations over the years, including a bowling alley and multiple dance halls.
Of bowling allies and bars: A history of 901 Mississippi
By Melissa Shuman Kansan staff writer
Students buying liquor at Cork & Barrel Wine and Spirits, 901 Mississippi St., might be surprised if they knew their grandparents might have gone bowling there.
The history behind the building at 901 Mississippi St. is an intriguing one, as the building has been a bowling alley, a dance hall, a bar, a grocery store and a liquor store.
Albert Griffiths built the store that still stands today in 1947. The building's first occupant was Paladium Lanes, a twelve-lane bowling alley. Griffiths owned the location for 30 years before retiring in 1976.
In the days of disco the bowling alley floor was used to build a dance hall. The Paladium.
The dance hall was turned into a bar called Shenanigans in the 1980s. Another dance hall called The Power Plant occupied the location until 1992.
In 1993, the Community Mercantile Co-op changed the building once again, this time into a grocery store. Nancy O'Connor, marketing director, said that the location helped their business.
"Moving to 901 Mississippi was a big leap for us," she said.
O'Connor said the business was hurt somewhat at first when it had to compete with Wild Oats, another natural foods grocery store that opened in Lawrence from 1994 to 1996. After the competition left town, business at The Merc began to boom, and the store began to get cramped for room.
"The problem for that area was visibility and space," she said. "The entrance was in the back and there weren't loading docks, so receiving food there was difficult."
O'Connor said that bigger trucks blocked the exit for customers. She also said that it was difficult for the shop to maintain a grocery store image, because the entrance was in the back and there weren't windows visible to the Ninth Street traffic. O'Connor said another problem was traffic from football games.
"We had to patrol our own parking lot during games to save spaces for customers," she said.
David Loewenstein created a mural found on the side facing Mississippi Street in 1996.
In June 2001, The Community
Mercantile Co-op moved to 901 Iowa Street. Dan Blomgren leased the site for his Cork & Barrel liquor store. Blomgren began making changes to the space.
"I wanted it to have a new look, that's why I painted and added landscaping," he said. "I wanted people to know there was a change."
In August 2001, some Lawrence residents began to get angry when they were worried Blomgren wanted to paint over the 1996 mural. Blomgren decided to leave the painting when he realized its importance to the community
O'Connor said she hoped the mural would stay a part of the building for a long time.
"It's a greater piece than just 'The Mere'," she said. "It's another Lawrence landmark."
Blomgren said that some of the customers that came to the Cork & Barrel still reminisce about the building's history.
"It's a building that's got a long history," he said.

Desdemona, played by Sara Armstrong, Cushing, Okla., graduate student, uses a boot hook to illustrate the size of her husband's penis as her servant Emilia, played by Mo Perry, Eden Prairie, Minn., junior, listens. The two were in final dress rehearsal last week for Desdemona: A Play About A Handkerchief.
DESDEMONA

of what might have happened when Othello wasn't around.
"I really like that I get to be ridiculous and crazy in the name of art for two hours." Perry said.
The mixture of heavy-handed feminism and vulgar comedy might not seem to go well together, but it makes thinking about stereotypes less dry. More importantly, it works.
"The acting was phenomenal. They're just so funny! It was a nice escape — very woman power," said Stephanie Farley, Wellington sophomore.
After laughing out loud during the play, the audience is left wondering whether Desdemona was
ethical or not, and if she deserved the end everyone knew was coming.
Director Joy Richmond, Houston doctoral student in theater history, made the rehearsal process a collaborative work, something the cast and crew appreciated.
"She let us take it as far as we wanted," Armstrong said.
Songs from popular movies such as Moulin Rouge were chosen to enhance the connection to modern times. Costumes were visual reminders of the characters, such as a lacy black bra showing through a white shirt on Emilia, hinting at her repressed sexuality.
Adrienne Lamping, Ballwin
Mo., junior, who plays Bianca,

towel, but quickly casts it off to reveal fishnet stockings and tight black clothing.
Desdemona plays at 7:30 tonight, tomorrow and Saturday at the Inge Theater in Murphy Hall. While the play isn't meant for a young audience, the jokes and issues are perfect for anyone who knows anything about Othello. And for those who don't, a "Cliffs Notes" version of Shakespeare's play is provided in the program.

formance. The new format eventually grew into today's competitive poetry slam movement.
POET
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
"It's more alive, more interactive, it requires audience participation." Chin said.
The audience reaction is crucial for the slam to work. They are encouraged to laugh or cry at the poet during the performance.
"The fluidity of it is one of the best aspects," said Chelsea Cummings, a Lawrence resident who participated in the workshop "It's so natural — it's more like life. It's so real."
At yesterday's workshop the audience didn't hide its delight with Chin's playful mannerisms. Her performance changed from conversation to passionate poem with a surprising ease.
Laughter erupted during the workshop when Chin shared her theory that puppets Bert and Ernie were not gay, but just had to wait "for the right girls."
Later, when she delivered a poem about lesbians falling for straight women, many audience members chuckled to themselves. Much of Chin's poetry dealt with society's reaction to her homosexuality.
"The best thing I can do in a writing situation is to be honest how I feel." Chin said.
In her native home of Jamaica, homosexual relationships are illegal, so, five years ago, Chin packed up hgr bags and moved to New York to "chase women."
"I thought I would go and be a lesbian for eight months," she said.
The eight months have turned into five years and counting. In the meantime, Chin won the Amazon Slam in Denmark, The 1999 Chicago People of Color Slam, the 1998 Lambda Poetry Slam, and the 2000 SlamThis title. She's been featured on 60 Minutes and had her poetry published in a variety of magazines and poetry slam anthologies.
Chin said she considered herself very lucky to make her living with poetry, though sometimes the job was not easy. When she was just starting, Chin said she rode a bus from New York to Chicago just to perform in one club for $35.
"It's a lot of work," she said. "It's very important that the work remain honest. You have to give up yourself every time and every time you leave some behind."
Chin also wanted to take a little bit of the audience with her. Before the end of her performance, she passed out piles of journals and encouraged everyone to sign. Some students gave Chin mementos like pins and key chains.
Joanne Abbas, Iowa City, Iowa, senior, had seen Chin last year at a conference. Although she herself did not compose poetry, Abbs said she enjoyed watching Chin's performance.
"It's different from any kind of poetry," she said

Yep. That's how much KU Endowment works with each year to help KU. Most of this money consists of something called "endowed funds."
What that means is money reserved for the future. Every year, some interest earnings are awarded and some re-invested so
What that means is money reserved for the some interest earnings are awarded and some the principal's purchasing power isn't gradually eaten by inflation. These funds produced $20 million in student scholarships just this year!

Singer better than 'Ben' counterparts
There is something about teenage singer/songwriters named Ben from the 1990s.
Ben Lee, Claire Danes' paramour who formed Noise Addict when he was 13, left his band late in the decade to pursue a critically acclaimed yet commercially unsuccessful solo career.
Now, Ben Kweller, the 19-year-old former lead singer of Radish, has released his first full-length album Sha Sha on ATO Records and appears to have a brighter future than Lee.
Kweller sings, plays and writes like the love child of Ben Folds and Rivers Cuomo brought up on classic '70s AM fare.
"How It Should Be," a fun piano number featuring backing vocals from Kimya Dawson of the
COMMENTARY
Levi Chronister lchronister@kansan.com
Moldy Peaches, opens the album perfectly --- cute, clever and in just under two minutes.
The song also features a nice dichotomy of Kweller's deep yet kitschy writing as he tells his girl "It's up to me if I decide to be what I think is right/And don't bother me when I'm watching Planet of the Apes on TV."
"Wasted and Ready," a song about the movie "Doom Generation," and "No Reason" are both centered on a great guitar hook, but Kweller is equally adept at playing the piano.
"In Other Words" sounds like a
perfect b-side to Folds' "Brick" and "Falling" would challenge Elliot Smith for a songwriting award.
Even with the cute pop culture references and sing-along choruses, Kweller uses his songwriting talents to be as poignant as artists twice his age.
In "Commerce, Tx," he sings about the people in his hometown who waste their "slacker lifestyles" "drinking jager all day" and can't turn their lives around because "it involves pain to look inside."
Fortunately for Kweller, and music fans, he's gotten out of Texas and is ready to give us a glimpse of the pain and joy we can all feel.

Dan Quayle announces plans to campaign for president in 2003
Former vice president Dan Quayle formally announced his plans to run in the 2003 presidential election yesterday.
"It's about time we put a Republican back in the White House," Quayle said. "And in 2003, dogonit, it's gonna happen."
Today, Quayle is expected to reveal whom he will ask to be his running mate. His tentative list includes Tom Daschle, Gary Condit and Ralph Nader.
Search for bin Laden over; now Osama's turn to be 'it'
A six-month-long game of hide and seek was concluded yesterday as Osama bin Laden successfully reached "base." Upon his arrival bin Laden screamed out "Ollie Ollie Oxen Free!" while high-fiving several Al Qaeda officials.
According to game rules bin Laden must now be "it." He will be required to cover his eyes and count to ten while George W. Bush will have the opportunity to hide anywhere in the world.

Hydrogen and Helium to battle for top spot on Periodic Table
The Periodic Table Battle League announced yesterday that No.2 Hellum will fight No.1 Hydrogen for the title of the universe.
Helium has a distinguished career in the Bat league, but has never gained a spot higher than No. 2. Analysts say that for the first time ever, Helium might have a chance to split rival Hydrogen, which has shown weakness lately, especially in the highly-publicized title fight against Nitrogen.
Sports fans are ecstatic about the event.
Sports fans are ecstatic about the event. "I will be glued to the TV," said William Walker, a banker with gambling problems. "I don't care if the universe implodes, Helium's gonna kick ass."
The once-in-a-lifetime fight will be broadcast live from Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas.

Kansan Satire Writer
The University of Kansas announced today a plan that aims to simplify enrollment by automatically dropping students online.
Registrar Richard Morrell said that while online enrollment appeared to be a few decades away, the University hoped to have cyber drop capabilities ready this spring.
In February, 450 students were dropped from classes due to mix-ups and had to scramble to re-enroll.
Keith Van Buren, Dodge City sophomore, plans to cybermoon an administrator after he was electronically dropped from his classes.
"We simply can't have a mess like that again," Morrell said. "We had ticked-off students running around this campus. It was total confusion. Now, when we accidentally drop students we'll do it right."
Under the new plan, students will be electronically dropped right away and sent a personalized e-mail informing them they will be unable to attend their classes next semester. Morrell said this would give students
time to find something to do next fall. Attached to the e-mail will be an application to run for student body president.
No decision has been made on how dropped students will be president.
selected, but the University might purchase a used Kansas Lottery ping pong ball number picker to randomly select around 500 unlucky students.
"This will make dropping classes much easier all the way around."
Morrell said. "It will show we care about the students we screw."
Students can expect to begin receiving drop notices in their in boxes as early as May 1.
Also included in the plan are features that will allow students to electronically take out their enrollment frustrations with a mouse click. Students will be able to send the University a nasty e-mail from its own Web page by selecting from seven preset, expletive filled, totally inappropriate messages. There also will be a "moon an administrator" online feature.
an administrator at KU still sucks, but you have to give these guys credit," said Keith Van Buren, Dodge City sophomore. "It sounds like they are really trying to help us out. If KU messes up my enrollment, I'm totally going to cyber moon (Provost David) Shulenburger."

Levi's introduces no-wash jeans
By Joe Stephenson
By Joe Stephenson Kansan satire writer
Levi Strauss and Company took a bold step in fashion this week by introducing No Wash jeans.
The Levi's 565 No Wash look and feel just like regular jeans, but the owner never needs to wash them.
Levi's designer Emily Carmen said the No Wash was developed after a market survey.
"The most surprising thing we uncovered was that only 0.06 percent of the population washed their jeans on a regular basis," she said. "The highest percentage of non-washers was among college students. We decided the time was right to introduce Wash Jeans."
Reaction to the No Wash line was positive among KU students. Mike Smitty, Holton senior, said he would buy the jeans.
buy the jeans "I hardly ever wash my jeans anyway." Smitty said. "One time I kept forgetting to wash my jeans and I went around for like three weeks wearing these jeans I spilled beer and dropped a chicken wing on. I also try not to wash my jeans too much because they shrink."
The new No Wash line will be available in about two weeks. They will be available in regular, relaxed and loose

Gooden still undecided about plans for next year
By Ben Ross Kansan satire writer
After three magnificent seasons with the Kansas basketball team,star forward Drew Gooden is now forced to make the most difficult decision of his career: what type of vehicle will transport him from his multi-million dollar estate to practices with his future NBA team.
"I never knew choosing a car could be so difficult. I mean, (expletive), who wants to choose between a BMW 850CL and a Lincoln Navigator," Gooden said to an anxious crowd of KU fans and boosters at a recent press conference.
The crowd responded with cheers "One more gear" referring to the six-speed manual transmission that comes standard on the BMW 850.
The Navigator is only available with a five-speed automatic.
"I think Drew would look pimp in the chromed-out 850CL with a rear spoiler and ground-effects package," said former
assistant coach Neil Dougherty.
"Although if I were him, I would also add some Dayton 5 star rims."
Doherty later said that he will support Gooden in whatever decision he makes.
Coach Roy ferent take on the issue.
"It has been a pleasure coaching Drew all these years even though his current ride isn't so tight," said the teary-eyed coach

referring to Gooden's 1992 Mercury Sable. "Deep in my heart I always knew there would come a day when I would see that fine young man rolling down Iowa Street in a stretched out 5.0."

Coalition celebrates blowout victory
By Lauren Beatty and Sarah Hill Kansan staff writers
Almost too overcome with emotion to speak, newly elected student body vice president Loren Malone, sticky with champagne sprayed on her and sweat, clasped her hands together and thanked her coalition.
"I'm just so proud of our candidates and our campaign team," she said, sobbing.
Jonathan Ng, president-elect, stood up on a table at Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St., after the Student Senate election results were
announced about 9 p.m. and said he was focused on the future, but was enjoying his victory. Ng and Malone racked up 2,297 votes to Delta Force's 1,493 and SMILE's 170.
"I'm looking forward to following through with our platform issues," he said. "Next week we work for the student body, tonight we party."
More than 100 candidates and supporters screamed, hugged and cried as the elections results were announced on KUJH-TV and KJHK. A tight circle of bodies formed around Ng and Malone as "Celebration" by Kool and the Gang blared from the loudspeakers.
Even before the results were announced, champagne corks popped and beer and Captain Morgan rum were served. Candidates chanted "KUnited!" and "Ng and Malone!"
Konner Jessica Bankston, who ran for student body president last year with the VOICE Coalition, which Ngalso ran with, was at the party to show her support. Bankston helped KUnited manage its campaign this year.

crowd of more than 150 people who gathered at the house for the Student Senate elections announcements booed every time the announcements were delayed.
When the final tallies were announced after 9 p.m., the crowd got quiet, but that only lasted a few minutes. Keith and Brauer embraced as the results came in that Delta Force lost the presidential race to KUnited.

Nona Golledge, assistant director for dining services, said the storage area for E's Express would be converted to the grab-and-go area, while the existing space would be changed into the convenience store.

The toxicology results about the death of KU student Ben Hartter are not complete yet.
The Morrill senior's body was found March 20 at Wulfkuhle & Rainbolt Dentist Office, 316 Maine, where he was an employee.
The toxicology report will determine the cause of death. A toxicology report usually takes three to four weeks, said Lawrence Police Sgt. Mike Patrick. However, the complexity of the analysis can slow the process, he said.

Smith will speak on the subject of "Topography of the Sacred."
Miller said the speech would try to define the concept of the sacred and what the word meant to different people.
"Jonathan Smith has a wonderful, free-ranging mind and there are a thousand different ways he could go with that topic. I don't know exactly what he will say, but it will be intriguing." Miller said
Smith is the author of several books. His most recent work, Drudgery Divine, is about the history of denominational in-fighting in Christianity.

Kansas Regents protest budget cuts
The Associated Press
WICHITA— Sounding frustrated and desperate, the Kansas Board of Regents and university presidents launched a public relations effort yesterday to keep lawmakers from sacrificing higher education funding to close a $700 million budget gap.
"I believe this is the first time this has ever happened. That underscores the size of the opportunity and the magnitude of the threat—both of those are greater than they have ever been," said Kim Wilcox, president and chief executive officer for the Kansas Board of Regents.
Their campaign kicked off with a news conference in Wichita, attended by current and former board members, the presidents of the state's universities and community colleges and civic and business supporters.
budget proposal lawmakers have considered would get close to that.
Regents now plan to take the fight to communities across the state, with particular emphasis on pressing the editorial boards of Kansas newspapers to support their cause, he said.
In Topeka, House Appropriations Committee Chairman Kenny Wilk said he understands the frustration of higher education officials but said, "They join the chorus of entities," upset about the budget.
Clark told reporters that even if the upcoming budget funded post-secondary education at the same level as the current budget, it would still represent a $13 million cut — about 6 percent less — in actual available funds.
Regents urged the Legislature to approve the budget for higher education, but, as a board, offered no specifics on how to come up with those funds. That's the Legislature's problem, they said.
In 1999, the Legislature reorganized the higher education system and promised state universities, community colleges and technical schools more money. Higher ed was supposed to see a $45 million increase during the state's next fiscal year, but no
"I understand their priorities and we're going to do what we can with the resources that are identified for spending," said Wilk, R-Lansing.
Former regent Jordan Haines said universities are the strength of Kansas: "The future of Kansas and public higher education are inexorably one and the same."
That's because the schools have money tied up in previous obligations, such as annualized salary increases and rises in health insurance, Clark said.
Frank Meyer, chairman of the Kansas Chamber of Commerce, said a recent meeting attended by 17 of the state's largest chambers of commerce came up with the consensus that the final budget should "hold harmless" K-12 and higher education, as well as research at the universities.
While a number of tax items are "off the table" for increases, he said, others that the Kansas Chamber would support include enactment of slot machines, an increase in the state sales tax by 0.3 percent and doubling of the franchise fee.
"The quality of education is a business issue," Meyer said. "Healthy communities and work force needs demand educational excellence at all levels. Mediocrity is not an option."

"We don't want to cause confusion or create expectations that we will be part of this process," Prosper said. "We do believe that if we are not a party to the treaty we are not under the jurisdiction of the treaty."
The court will fill a gap in the international justice system first recognized by the U.N. General Assembly in 1948 after the Nuremberg and Tokyo trials for World War II's German and Japanese war criminals.
Even though President Bill Clinton signed the Rome treaty, the U.S. seat in the crowded chamber was empty. The Bush administration boycotted the ceremony, just as it has not attended meetings preparing for the court's operations.
"It will be the court where the Saddam Husseins, Pol Pots and Agosto Pinochets of the future are held to account," said Richard
At a brief ceremony at U.N. headquarters, more than 500 supporters of the tribunal rose in a standing ovation after 10 nations deposited their ratifications, bringing the number of countries now legally bound to cooperate with the International Criminal Court to 66.

UNITED NATIONS — The world's first permanent war crimes tribunal got the necessary international backing yesterday to come into force on July 1, a milestone hailed by human rights advocates and many nations but strongly opposed by the United States.
The court will step in only when countries are unwilling or unable to dispense justice themselves for the most serious crimes committed by individuals like genocide or war crimes.
A dream ever since the United Nations was established more than five decades ago, the court became a reality when its founding treaty received the required 60 ratifications.

It will have jurisdiction only over crimes committed after the treaty enters into force. Washington has campaigned unsuccessfully to exempt U.S. soldiers and officials from its jurisdiction, arguing that the safeguards against political prosecutions are not sufficient.

Center should replace faulty KUIDs for free
The KU Card officials recently surveyed students on the use of KUIDs. Officials asked students for suggestions about improvements to card services, suggestions about new features and complaints. According to Diane Goddard, assistant associate provost and comptroller, one complaint shone through.
KUIDs fall apart.
KUIDs fall apart.
And when anything happens to a KUID, whether it be lost, stolen or split, the student is charged $15 for a replacement. Students are charged even if the card becomes damaged because of every day use or flaws in its quality.
After the KUID was implemented in 1998, a problem with the multi-purpose cards developed. The card stock had a tendency to split. The cards did not hold up to the strain of everyday use.
The supplier of the card stock agreed to accept the damaged cards. Students who took the front and back halves of their splintered KUIDs to the card center received a replacement without cost.
replacement without cost. While the KUID card stock has improved since then, some cards are still likely to split. Joanna Fewins, Redfield junior, had her KUID replaced after an ATM kept the front of her card. A KU Card Center employee told Fewins she would have to get the front of the card to receive a free replacement, or she would have to pay the replacement fee.
Nancy Miles, KU Card administrator, said there have been times where a KUID was replaced free of charge in cases such as Fewins'. This was often because of new staff members or student employees who were not familiar with Card Center policy.

card should happen to split a keyboard While it is understandable that students are charged for a new KUID in cases where they have caused damage to the card themselves, sometimes circumstances are beyond the control of students. The center should not charge students if they are not responsible for the damage or loss of their card.

What's up with the *Kansan* not ever printing anything about the KU men's lacrosse team? We're 7-1, and we're first in our division. I just thought I'd let everyone know, because we're probably going to win the championship this year, and no one's ever going to cover us.
--myself, where have you studied?
We as college students are always at war with our dark side. We are constantly questioning our conscience. Should I go out on a Tuesday when I have a test at 8:30 the next morning? Should I cheat on my girlfriend with a bodacious sophomore who just had six Smirnoff Ices? Should I watch Britney Spears' Las Vegas Concert on
Is it me, or did I just see a random, hot, drunk girl in a Raggedy Ann costume on campus?
Man, I had no idea Amelia Earhart was so hot. Do you think that if I vote for her she'll go out with me?
I was just watching Springer, and this guy who I thought was normal pulled off his clothes, and he had women's underwear on, and I just got to thinking, I wonder how many guys on campus that you walk by that look normal are really wearing women's underwear.
Why do all the stupid transfer students get to enroll before I do when I've already been here for two years? It doesn't make any sense.
So do you think the person that stole hosts from their church is going to go to hell?
Considering Raef Lafrentz and Paul Pierce are way better, I don't think Drew Gooden should have his number retired.
I'm watching the news right now, and I just wanted to know why Kansas City is funding a project to make parking lots more attractive to tourists, while arts and music programs are being cut from public education.

How do I get my lazy-ass roommate, who sits on the couch all day loudly kissing with her boyfriend, to get her ass up and leave, so I don't have to blast techno music in order to get a little studying done and not hear them?

PERSPECTIVE
The 'dark side' is moving in at KU, but there's nothing wrong with that
While my parents have spent thousands of dollars for an education at the University of Kansas, I have learned how truly ignorant I am. Everyone comes into college thinking they know everything and then — bam their lives are opened up to a world they never knew existed.
If there is one thing I have learned in college, it is that college and for that matter, life — is one big test.
The biggest test we face in college is not a final for a class, but our personal battle between good and evil.
I thought about this topic because recently I have seen so many people doing dumb things that I am beginning to think that the dark side is beginning to win the war over good. Right now I am watching an MTV Spring Break special, in which couples are trying to put as many kiss marks on each other as possible. And I am wondering to myself, where have all our morals gone?

tape instead of go to class? Wait, that's just me
There are so many examples of how the dark side is taking over. A picture perfect example was at the University of Maryland. Maryland won the national championship in basketball, and the students celebrated by rioting and burning stuff. Maybe it's an East Coast thing, but where I come from celebrating usually doesn't involve defacing property and causing massive amounts of chaos to your own school.
amounts or chaos to you. Letting your demon out is good, though because the only way to keep your inner demons in check is to embrace your demon. You should pierce or tattoo your demon, watch women's bodybuilding with your demon or have your demon call the Free for All proposing marriage to the hottie who sits two rows back in Math 101.
But our daily struggle against the our darker forces run deeper than the usual after-hour affairs that I have been mentioning. It also includes greed, selfishness and dishonesty, and no matter how perfect we think we are, we always succumb to our own self interests in some way.
But is this dark side truly bad? Hell no.
But is this dark side true? So enough with all this make-the-world-a-better-place crap that we are fed every day. Go out and cause some chaos in your life. But don't wait, you must start letting go of all your inhibitions right now. Because after my most recent spring break trip, I realized that the window for being dumb and young is getting smaller. As you get older, partying hard and being immature starts to get interpreted as creepy, and then you become "that guy/girl."
become that guy go!
So you must get it out of the way before it's too late. I am not encouraging you to do something too crazy like get naked and smear yourself with peanut butter and walk to class. I am merely encouraging you to indulge in safe thrills. Whether that be watching a PG-13 movie or participating in "Freeball Friday," just sit back and let your dark reign supreme.

U.S. government fuels internal conflict in Colombia through its war on drugs
There is a human rights crisis in Colombia that continues to intensify and spread throughout the country, and which the U.S. government bears some responsibility for.
GUEST COMMENTARY
for. The decades-long conflict involving Colombian security forces, their paramilitary allies and armed opposition groups has been characterized by widespread and systematic abuses of human rights and international humanitarian law by both sides in the conflict.
Kyle Browning opinion@kansan.com
According to Amnesty International, during 2001, more than 5,000 people were killed for political motives, more than 300 people were victims of forced "disappearances," and more than 200,000 people were forcibly moved from their homes.
The U.S. government has fueled this conflict by providing military aid to Columbia, with no real interest in ending the violence consuming Colombia.
President Clinton enacted Plan Colombia under the guise of the "war on drugs," making Colombia the world's third-largest recipient of U.S. military aid. Bush's 2003 budget proposal includes $470 million for providing military training and equipment to Colombia. The Colombian military has close ties to tightwing paramilitary forces that commit 80 percent of the country's human rights abuses, and the largest paramilitary group was recently added to the U.S. list of terrorist organizations.
Along with military aid, U.S.-sponsored fumigation efforts to eradicate coca cause health problems in farmers and have destroyed legal food crops, causing unemployment and starvation. The United States has bought 70,000 gallons of the plant killer Round-Up
Ultra from its manufacturer, Monsanto, for coca eradication, according to the San Francisco-based organization CorpWatch. Monsanto directly contributed $12,000 to Bush's campaign. Despite company and government claims that fumigation is harmless to humans, the less concentrated commercial Round-Up label warms that federal law prohibits "contact (with) workers or persons" and that "only protected handlers may be in the area during application."
cation. Instead of aid for alternative crop development or support for the millions of internally displaced people, Bush's budget proposal includes $98 million for protection of a 500 mile-long oil pipeline partially owned by California-based Occidental Petroleum, whose combined donations to both major political parties surpassed $300,000 in the last election cycle.
cycle. The Center for International Policy reports that Occidental's Caño Limón pipeline in Colombia has spilled more than 2.1-million barrels of oil because of sabotage by leftist rebels. Occidental and the US government have come under protest by the indigenous U'wa community for a Colombian military massacre of 18 civilians, including nine children, in the village of Santo Domingo in 1998.
Other companies that donate large amounts of money to both parties have benefited greatly from U.S. policy in Colombia as well. Defense companies United Technologies, Lockheed Martin and Textron have made more than $386 million in profits from Plan Colombia.
Colombia. The New York-based National Labor Committee also says U.S. military aid contributes to "genocide against unionists" in Colombia, as three-fifths of the world's murdered trade unionists are Colombian. Paramilitary forces perpetuate most of the assassinations of union organizers, and no one has been found guilty for such a murder.
Last year international attention was generated when three union leaders at the U.S.-based Drummond Coal Company were assassinated. Additionally, Coca-Cola has recently been sued in American courts by the United Steelworkers of America and the International Labor Rights Fund for the torture, kidnap and murder of unionists at one of its Colombian bottling plants.
Bush's aid proposal to Colombia includes no money for economic and social aid, and will only fuel the conflict raging in this war-torn country. It is time for the U.S. government to reexamine its policy toward Colombia and other Latin-American countries, with the focus being on respect for human rights, democracy and justice—not profit.

"The president sets the tone. I just couldn't be more proud of Jonathan and Loren."
Ben Walker and Marlon Marshall, student body president and vice-president for the 2000-2001 school year, also attended the party, along with Elections Commission member Scott Kaiser.
In his victory speech, Ng thanked the election team.
"We'd like to thank Jessica Bankston and Marlon Marshall. We'd like to dedicate this win to them, and Hunter Harris" he said.
Harris ran for student body vice president with Bankston last year.
Johanna Maska, who won a Nunemaker seat, said she was proud of the coalition's hard work.
"We've been out there from eight in the morning to four at night for four weeks," she said. "Students saw our dedication
Overall, KUnited coalition members won 38 Senate seats, with one tie. Elections commissioner David Mitchell said the two tying candidates for School of Law seats had to decide among themselves who would take the seat.
and voted for us. I'm so happy for the candidates. They totally deserved this. We kicked ass."
"Flipping a coin would be an option," he said. "Some states do a five-card hand of poker to decide the winner. I am going to get in touch with them tomorrow and decide what they want to do."
Both referendums on the ballot passed. Referendum A will continue the Newspaper Readership Program and Referendum B will give residents of greek housing representation by off-campus senators.

The pair then burst into tears and hugged.
Brauer said he was incredibly proud of Delta Force.
"We fought the good fight," Brauer said. "We're going to continue making changes like we do every year."
Keith said she was disappointed that Delta Force did not win more seats. The coalition won 25 seats in this year's elections, down eight from last year.
"I wish we had gotten more candidates in," she said. "But the candidates that did win will do an awesome job."
Keith was crying after the results were announced, but said her tears were not from being sad but from the chants and support that surrounded her.
"It means we have to work harder next year," he said.
Justin Mills, student body president who ran with Delta Force last year, said he was a little disappointed. He is the only Delta Force candidate to have won a presidential election.
About 20 minutes later, the Vision Coalition learned that KUnited and Delta Force had swept the elections. None of the Vision candidates won a seat in the elections.
Across town, the first thing members of the Vision Coalition had to do when they arrived at The Hawk, 1340 Ohio, was tear down KUnited posters left over from the opposing coalition's kickoff party. About 30 Vision candidates and supporters attended.
Adam Rich, Omaha, Neb. senior, muttered "KUnited, KUnited, Delta Force, KUnited" as the winning candidates were announced.
Matt Steppe, former Vision presidential candidate, said he was happy that his candidates
were able to stick with the coalition through all of the turmoil they had when Steppe was disqualified last month for providing false information about his student status to the elections commissioner.
"If they didn't have a chance to get in this year, I hope they'll continue to work on the issues and run again next year," Steppe said.
Meanwhile, Paul Bammel, presidential candidate for the SMILE coalition, beamed smiles as the election results were announced last night at the Kansas Union.
"Yeah, we broke 1001" Bammel yelled as the results came in that he and his vice presidential running mate Jared Hiatt had received third place in the presidential race with 170 votes.
"I think I got my message across that I just wanted to have fun here," he said. "I'm having a good time and I hope the rest of the student body is as well."
Bammel showed up to the Union sporting a "smile toga" and afro. The toga was a blue sheet with a giant yellow smiley face hanging from it.
After the results, Bammel said he planned to go to the Delta Force party to cheer them up and "Turn those frowns upside down." He was accompanied by one other SMILE candidate, Beau Jackson, an Andover Junior running for a CLAS seat. Jackson did not win a seat.
The five other members of the coalition and the vice presidential candidate did not show up. None of them won their seats either.
"They probably didn't know the elections were today," Jackson said.
