The center got what it asked for after it requested the 700 units from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) earlier in October, said Myra Strother, director of student services. Watkins was originally scheduled to receive about 3,000 units. Strother estimated the 700 units would be enough to vaccinate all students, faculty and staff that fit in the high priority group defined by the CDC. Those in the priority group will be the only ones to receive the vaccina- "We're trying to make sure people at high risk for the flu don't end up in the hospital or severly ill." Myra Strother Director of student services tion, she said. The first two days of the clinic will be limited to students to ensure that they have a fair chance of receiving the shot, and KUIDs are required. Faculty and staff will be invited to participate Thursday and Friday. The second-floor conference room at Watkins will be turned into flu-clinic headquarters. The goal of the clinic is to make sure all high-risk students receive the vaccine, Strother said. high risk for the flu don't up in the hospital or severly ill," she said. "We're trying to make sure people at It is important for students who fit in the priority group to get the vaccine even if they don't consider themselves to be at a high risk, Strother said. Even if a person is healthy now, a chronic illness like asthma could increase the severity of the flu if they get it. According to the KDHE, persons 2 to 64 years old with underlying medical conditions, pregnant women, children 6 to 18 years old on aspirin therapy and healthcare workers involved in direct hands-on-patient care are included in the high priority group. People on steroid medication could also be included in the high priority group. Strother said. People will be closely screened to make sure they fit within the high priority group.

The Kansas Alumni Association named Corbett its new president and chief executive officer Friday, Oct. 29. Corbett succeeds Delbert Shankel, who was appointed interim president and CEO in May 2004. Corbett begins his new duties June 15. Corbett begins his new duties Nov. 15. When nominated for the position, Corbett gladly accented. A 1988 KU graduate, Corbett said his career goal was to retire as the president and CEO of the Alumni Association. "It had a lot to do with a once in a century opportunity to have the University, the Alumni Association, KU Endowment and the Athletics Department working together in a synergistic way. "Those groups have worked together in the past, but I want to really solidify those relationships." A six-member search committee reviewed approximately 30 candidates nationwide before recommending Corbett, said Robert Driscoll, committee chairman. In 1997, Corbett returned to the University from stints in Georgia, Oklahoma and Colorado to be the Kansas University Endowment Association's director of constituent development. He is currently the senior vice president for development and secretary for the Endowment Association. The committee ultimately recommended Corbett because of the immediate, positive impact he would have across the University community and his breadth of experience in managing an organization, Driscoll said. Though the committee did not regard Corbett's University experience as essential, it was a major plus. Driscoll said. "It permits him to get down to the business of the association right away," he said. "It lessens the learning curve." As president and CEO of the Endowment Association, he will interact with alumni, who are some of the Endowment Association's primary donors. At the Endowment Association, Corbett is the direct supervisor of John Scarffe, director of communications. His new appointment is great for both the Alumni Association and the Endowment Association, Scarffe said. "He's been good to work for and with," Scartte said.

Registration problems arise in Lawrence BY LAURA FRANCOVIGLIA lfrancoviglia@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER --never received her registration form Heather Leger missed two bubbles when she filled out her voter registration form on Sept. 28: her citizenship status and age. Though Leger's problem was unusual, the process of voter registration was imperfect for the Student Legislative Awareness Board. SLAB helped to register 5,435 voters and problems were common. The organization coordinated the University of Kansas' voter registration drive. Katie Wolff, SLAB legislative director, said registration forms from groups around campus and republican registrations filled out with the Young Democrats were turned into SLAB. Problems of registration forms included forms filled out in pencil, filled out for another state and forgotten signatures, said Wolff, Shawnee senior. Wolff said she and the other SLAB members tried to oversee the registration process Leger, Derby sophomore, said she didn't receive a notification about the status of her registration until one day before the deadline, Oct. 18. She had already reregistered by then because of unusual circumstances. Leger, a republican, filled out the form at a table on Wescoe Beach headed by Young Democrats. She thought they threw away her registration form because of comments she said members of the group made. Voter suppression is a felony, so an investigation by the KU Police Department followed. In the end, Leger said the Young Democrats did not throw away her registration form. "Even though we did the best we could, there were things we could have easily missed as well," Wolff said. Wolff and Jason Boots, Student Senate community affairs director, said they have been referring anyone who had a problem with registering to the Douglas County Clerk. Boots said 25 to 30 people have emailed or called the Student Senate office with questions regarding voter registration. Of those, he said the majority had questions about how to check the status of their registration, while between five to 10 people had legitimate problems. Wolff said some students had accused SLAB of not turning their voter registration forms in, but it wasn't true. Strategic registering ELECTIONS Leger tried to check her voter registration status online, but when she couldn't find her name, she assumed the Douglas County Clerk's office "I would never disenfranchise someone." Wolff said. The University Daily Kansan 111 Stauffer Flint Hall. 1435 Jayhawk Blvd. Lawrence, KS 66045 (785) 864-4810 © 2004 The University Daily Kansan "There's a lot of problems with registration," Wolff said. "It stems from no civic education in high schools anymore, and it stems from laziness." See more election coverage on pages 3A, 7A and 8A. Boots said there were more problems at the end of the voter registration drive. He said the registration forms at greek houses were not picked up until the last day of registration. Boots, Plano, Texas, junior, said he tried to call about 20 people who didn't fill out the registration forms properly three hours before the deadline. He said he was unable to reach most of them in time. Football loses SEE REGISTRATION ON PAGE 6A A local man took his dissatisfaction with President Bush across the state line.

PROVIDENCE EVERYTHING BOLSTER MARKET CAMPUS KU students slated to leave for Kuwait next week Non-traditional KU student Paul Van Cleve was honored at a ceremony in Fort Riley last Friday with about 500 other soldiers. Military dignitaries said farewell to the troops and gave thanks for defending the country in the deployment ceremony, Van Cleve said. Van Cleve, a specialist with the Army National Guard, finished two months of intensive training in Fort Riley. The Lawrence senior will be supply ing necessities such as water and fuel to troops, but he said his training had been extensive. He said he had essentially been trained to perform a drive-by shooting, with a machine gun and how to take over a town. Van Cleve will most likely leave for Kuwait within the next week, but the exact date is unknown, he said. After Kuwait, Van Cleve said he would go to Iraq within a few days or even a couple of months. He said he would be stationed at the Sunni Triangle, an area northwest of Baghdad. Van Cleve said he didn't know when he would be back in Kansas because his enlistment had been involuntarily extended until the year 2031. Laura Francoviglia Liberal Israeli newspaper editor to speak at Union The editor of Ha'aretz, an Israeli newspaper, will speak about "The Middle East, the Media, and the Message" at 8 p.m. today at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. The Ha'aretz is "an independent daily newspaper with a broadly liberal outlook both on domestic issues and on international affairs" and has readership of between 75,000 and 95,000, according to the Ha'aretz's Web site For more information about the Ha'aretz see www.haaretzdailv.com The event is sponsored by KU Hillel. Louis Feraudier — Laura Francoviglia First-time voters in Douglas County will need to bring some form of identification with them to the polls if they have not already done so, said Marni Penrod, deputy clerk of elections for Douglas County. Identification a must for first time Douglas county voters COUNTY That identification, if it contains an address, must be the same as the address where the person is registered, she said. The rule applies to anyone voting in Douglas County for the first time, even if they have voted before somewhere else. However, if the ID does not contain an address, it is still acceptable. If someone already showed some form of ID when registering to vote, then the person doesn't need to do it again, she said. Also, there is a "verified list" from the Department of Motor Vehicles that can be used to verify the identity of someone, but Penrod said that students typically weren't on that list. Acceptable forms of identification include a KUID. "For students, that would probably be easiest," Penrod said. "Most of them will probably be carrying it around with them anyway." Other forms of ID without an address that would be acceptable to show at the polls include a military ID or passport. Acceptable forms of ID with an address include a drivers license, a non-drivers license ID card, a paycheck or stub, utility bill, bank statement or any other government document with an address, Penrod said. Andy Hyland Stations refuse to air Kobach interview THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Kobach was scheduled to appear in a taped interview with the Rev. Jerry Johnston on KMCI-TV, KSHB-TV and PAX TV yesterday. KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Three Kansas City television stations have decided not to run a half-hour program featuring Republican congressional candidate Kris Kobach because of concerns about equal-time requirements. General managers at all three stations decided there wasn't enough time to provide Kobach's Democratic opponent in the race for Kansas' 3rd Congressional District, incumbent Rep. Dennis Moore, with a similar broadcast opportunity. The interview, dealt heavily with the topic of gay marriage, which is one of Kobach's central themes. The program would have run in Johnston's normal time slot, paid for by his church. Johnston said Moore was invited to participate in the interview, but declined. "If it came at least a week or two ago, we probably could have aired it and given Dennis Moore equal time at the equal rate," said Frank Barajas, general manager of PAX TV. "There will not be another Sunday time that we can give them." "It seems to me as if they have an agenda," Moore said. "I'm not sure it's going to be very productive for me to be on the show, honestly." "This is not a candidate use, which would trigger equal-time provisions under the FCC rules," Kobach said. But Kobach took issue with the show's cancellation. ON THE RECORD A 20-year-old KU student reported to Lawrence police that someone had stolen a laptop around 6 p.m. from 9:30 p.m. in the 1200 block of Ohio Street. His loss is estimated around $1,200.

The Lawrence Transit System and the Democratic and Republican parties of Douglas County will provide free rides to the polls on election day. This year marks the first time the T, the bus system's nickname, will offer free ridership, said Karin Rexroad, public transit administrator for the Lawrence Transit System, 930 East 30th St. "Hopefully they'll take advantage of it to go vote," Rexroad said. "Anything we can do to help the community do their civic duty." She said the T offered free ridership for special events suggested by riders. Buses will pick up voters at the sites listed on www.lawrencectransit.org. The T runs eight routes, but voters can call the company at 312-7054 if they have another pickup location, Rexroad said. The Douglas County Republican Party will also offer free rides to anyone who calls 691-8283, said Richard Todd, treasurer of the Douglas County Republican Party. Todd said some voters knew about advance ballots, but liked the idea of going to the polling sites. He said the ridership program was for voters who wanted to ensure their vote was counted. The Republican Party will deploy three drivers with no restrictions on areas, Todd said. The Douglas County Democratic party will send volunteers to take voters to the The Lawrence Transit System, 312-7054 NEED A RIDE? The Douglas County Republican party, 691-8283 The Douglas County Democratic party, 749-2121 polls, said Aimee Polson, volunteer coordinator. She said she did not know how long the party had offered free rides on election day, but thought it was ingrained in the election process. "Voting is important and some people are busy, it relieves one more pressure," Polson said. She said more than 250 volunteers work for the Douglas County Democratic Party. Volunteers range from high school and college students to other members of the community who take off work. Voters can call 749-2121 for a ride. Some volunteers will make phone calls and other will drive, depending on the need, she said. Nate Thames started working at the party at the beginning of the semester. He has collected advanced ballots and made phone calls for the party, but did not know whether he would drive voters on election day. "We're trying to make it as easy as possible," Thames, Wichita junior, said. "This year, especially, it's important to vote." 'Driving Votes' tries to oust Bush - Edited by Ryan Greene BY KELLIR ROBINETE editor@kansan.com SPECIAL TO THE KANSAN Stephen Lerner does not want to see George Bush in the Oval Office for another four years. Lerner is so motivated to remove the president that every weekend for the last five months he and a handful of other Lawrence Democrats traveled to Kansas City, Mo., to campaign for John Kerry, in an attempt to win the swing state. "Republicans have convinced the average middle class person in Kansas that they offer more than the Democrats do," said Lerner. "They have a huge advantage, and Kansas is nowhere near being a swing state." The last time a Democrat won Kansas in a presidential election was Lyndon Johnson in 1964. But according to a September Gallup poll, Missouri is still considered a swing state, even though Bush is ahead by 14 points. For that reason, Lerner is part of a national organization called Driving Votes. Driving Votes has targeted 20 states across the country as swing states and has established chapters in 25 states. It started to pick up momentum on the national scale this summer when Michael Moore endorsed the organization. Its Web site, www.drivingvoices.com, received 10,000 hits the following week. Lerner formed the local chapter of Driving Votes and has recruited 20 Democrats from as far away as Manhattan. Each Saturday the group has split into pairs and gone to Kansas City, MO., sites that are likely to attract Democratic voters. This summer, they set up tables outside movie theaters showing the anti-Bush film Fahrenheit 9/11, and have recently campaigned at places in Missouri such as Habitat for Humanity and Westport Market. Lerner has personally registered 822 new voters in Missouri, and he estimates that his local chapter has signed up as many as 25,000. Although members spend most of their time at businesses, they do not limit themselves to those venues. They also have registered voters in areas with under-funded schools and high levels of unemployment. The mission of the group is to register as many Kerry voters as possible, but it has also registered some Republicans. social welfare and one of the local Democrats who drives to Missouri with Lerner, said she had not turned away anyone who wanted to sign up to vote. "We've probably registered between two and four percent Republican," Lieberman said. "However, most of the time when you ask if you want to vote, everyone is really excited and says I want to get rid of him, and I want him gone. There is a lot of enthusiasm to get rid of Bush out there." Alice Lieberman, professor of It is that kind of enthusiasm that has the Driving Votes group thinking it will make an impact on the presidential election. "My little group of people in concert with everybody else in the KC area of Missouri has registered about 25,000 new voters," said Lieberman. "I don't know if that makes a difference or not, but when Florida is decided by like 550 votes it can be huge." Burdett Loomis, professor of political science at the University of Kansas, agrees with Lieberman, and thinks her group can end up making a difference in Missouri. tested state, and there is no question that registering more voters and getting them to the polls is a big part of the Democratic strategy." "I think it can have an impact in the presidential election," Loomis said. "I think that Missouri is a very closely con- He also said he can't remember an organization doing what Driving Votes is doing, nor has he ever seen a year with such emphasis on signing up new voters. The time to register new voters has passed in Missouri, and the Lawrence Driving Votes team is now focusing on getting all the Democrats they registered to the polls. They will also be coordinating with Missouri Pro-Vote and Democracy Now to help the Kerry campaign. "A lot of us from Kansas are either going to vote as absentees or vote early on election day and then try our best to get out the vote," said Lerner. "It's part of a huge national campaign that will be going on in every swing state." Lerner and his Driving Votes participants will find out Tuesday whether their efforts worked. But win or lose, Lerner said talking with so many new people has been a high point of his life. - Edited by Ashley Bechard Ottawa celebration marks Veterans Day THE ASSOCIATED PRESS OTTAWA — In many cities, Veterans Day is just that — a day. That won't suffice in Ottawa, where a week's worth of events intended to honor, educate and entertain surround this year's annual parade. Parades marking the Nov. 11 holiday have been held in the city for nine straight years, and the activities have grown steadily, said Harold Mayes, chairman of the Ottawa Veterans Committee, which organizes the events. Except tomorrow — Election Day — a series of nightly tributes will be held starting today at the Ottawa Community Arts Center. Each evening is dedicated to an individual war, and veterans will be invited to tell their stories. The city's parade takes place Saturday, with activities continuing through Sunday. "It's an opportunity for the town and the county to honor its veterans, and we think that is especially important because we've lost two of our own in the Iraq war," Mayes said. Sgt. Jacob Butler, of nearby Wellsville, became Kansas' first casualty of the current war when he was killed by a rocket-propelled grenade in Assamawah, Iraq, on April 1, 2003. Butler was a cavalry scout with the 3rd Brigade of the Army's 1st Armored Division, based at Fort Riley. On April 8, 2004, Marine Lance Cpl. Christopher B. Wasser, 21, was killed by hostile fire in Iraq's Al Anbar province. A 2001 graduate of Ottawa High School, he was assigned to the 3rd Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, I Marine Expeditionary Force, Twentynine Palms, Calif. Wasser had joined the Marines soon after high school as a way to earn money for college. He began his basic training on Sept. 11, 2001. The events of that date contributed to the growth of Ottawa's annual salute to veterans, which drew about 95 parade entries in 2000 but even more amid the surge of patriotism that followed the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, D.C. THIS WEEK ON CAMPUS NOVEMBER 1,2004 PRESENTED BY SENATE SCARED STRAIGHT How Homophobia Hurts Us ALL!

OPINION MONDAY, NOVEMBER 1. 2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN www.kansan.com Editors' note: Last Thursday the Kansan invited candidates for state and local office or retention to submit statements on their platforms. Statements were due Friday by noon. The statements are listed in alphabetical order according to the candidates' last names. My name is Charles Branson and I want to be your next District Attorney As Eudora City Prosecutor, I protect public safety, promote crime-free neighborhoods and defend families and businesses. I dare to do all that, and more, for our county because I care. As District Attorney, I will personally try cases and monitor the courts. I'll create a consumer protection division to go after scam artists who prey on taxpayers. I will fight forgers and thieves who threaten businesses. I will protect victims and witnesses from harassment and keep them informed about court proceedings. I will heed the needs of domestic abuse victims and involve teenagers in safety planning. I have combined my KU business and law degrees with my legal training to build a successful legal practice. I will use those skills to oversee the DAs $1.2 million budget so that taxpayers get the services they pay for. I will demand excellence from staff at the same time I maintain fiscal responsibility. I will make criminals pay and will demand that courts impose appropriate sentences. I will deliver. I will deliver because I care. Please vote Charles Branson for District Attorney. Charles Branson Democratic candidate for District Attorney November 2 is an important day at the polls in Lawrence. In the midst of all the election rhetoric is a very important race in the Kansas Senate. I currently represent the second district that includes the Lawrence campus of the University of Kansas. I have supported, and will continue to support, appropriate funding for education as well as job creation. How we address these two challenges will determine the future of Kansas. Republicans will probably maintain a 70-80 percent majority in the Senate and they will elect leadership, appoint committee chairs, and set the agenda the next four years. Moderate Republicans have a chance to win those leadership races in the Senate, but not if they're not there. Vote for Mark Buhler on November 2, a moderate voice for Lawrence and the University. Some believe if the race for the second district goes to the Democrats, the Senate will have conservative leadership. If conservatives control leadership we will address the social issues of the day. That puts education and job creation further down the list of priorities. Mark Buhler Republican candidate for State Senate 2nd District Good jobs are the key to a healthy and affordable community. I support a coordinated and comprehensive approach to achieve our economic development goals and will work to improve the job base in Lawrence and Douglas County. Douglas County must encourage and support sound planning principles. I will work to achieve a much better balance between development interests and surrounding neighborhoods. Douglas County must act now to coordinate road plans county-wide and regionally. I will work more closely with the state to make sure that all major roads in our region work together to resolve our traffic crisis. The county must respect and protect all communities, whether they are rural or urban in nature. The unique nature of rural life must be respected as Douglas County grows. I am committed to sensible planning that will offer continuity and security to all Douglas County communities. The county must weigh both costs and benefits to its citizens when spending taxpayer money and stop wasting county money on poorly planned developments. I have no ties to the development community and will have the interests of all residents in mind. Marguerite Ermeling Independent candidate for County Commissioner, 3rd District I hope to make a difference in the Kansas Senate by working to fund education, make health care more affordable, protect our natural resources, and improve benefits and conditions for all working Kansans. The state must raise revenues to adequately fund early childhood education, K-12, and higher education. We shouldn't have to consider using differential tuition monies to fund capital improvements for university academic buildings. The state should support renewable energy initiatives, particularly wind energy, create incentives for sustainable agriculture, and enforce the clean air and water acts. The state should have a goal of affordable basic health care available to all Kansans. We should require insurance companies to provide contraceptive coverage to policyholders as they would other drugs. We must work to enhance, not restrict, worker's compensation and raise the minimum wage in Kansas, which is now at $2.65, the lowest in the nation. I have a degree in architecture from the University of Kansas, work in the KU Office of Space Management, and have served as Mayor of Lawrence. I am the only candidate in this race who answered the Project Vote Smart questionnaire. Marci Francisco Democratic candidate for State Senate 2nd District As District Attorney, and a prosecutor with 15 years of experience, I understand every responsibility of the DA's office. During the last eight years as District Attorney, I have demonstrated a strong commitment to matters concerning the safety of all citizens. My team of dedicated prosecutors has over 100 years of combined experience. In order to keep our neighborhoods safe, we aggressively prosecute those who commit crimes in our community. We collaborate with other community agencies that provide services to our victims. My office has worked with the University of Kansas to provide education, training and services to victims of stalking, sexual assault and domestic violence. I have demonstrated my commitment to protecting all citizens by working with advocacy groups, and serving as vice president of the Ballard Community Center and vice chairman of the Attorney General's Workgroup on Children and Cybercrime. Recently, I was inducted into the KU Women's Hall of Fame.I have worked closely with local agencies to address concerns of Domestic Violence, Elder Abuse, Children's Issues and Sexual Abuse. As president-elect of the state prosecutors' organization, I have worked at the state level for legislation to protect our citizens here in Douglas County. I would appreciate your vote Nov 2. Christine Kenney Republican candidate for District Attorney As a graduate of the KU law and business schools, I value the importance of education. My wife, Ann, also a KU graduate, and I are raising our little daughter, Liliana, and we are reminded daily of the importance of a quality education every time we think about her future. We cannot afford to neglect our classrooms, because our future is sitting in them today. My plan for education includes: Re-work and simplify the K-12 school finance formula. Demand accountability and performance. Ensure that our education system is properly funded. Direct more money to the classrooms and teachers' pay.

TRUTH The "HOMESTRETCH" 1 N $ ^{4} $ A MONDAY, NOVEMBER 1. 2004 NEWS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5A Sharon: Arafat won't be buried in Jerusalem THE ASSOCIATED PRESS JERUSALEM — Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon said yesterday he would never let Yasser Arafat be buried in Jerusalem but would honor a commitment to allow the Palestinian leader to return to the West Bank when he finishes medical treatment in France. Meanwhile, senior Palestinian officials held high-level meetings to prove the government was still functioning in Arafat's absence. Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia, whose efforts to force Arafat to relinquish some power have largely failed, chaired a session of the Palestinian National Security Council, which commands the most important of the myriad Palestinian security forces. Qureia asked the security chiefs to draw up a list of whatever they need to tighten security in the Palestinian areas and present it to his Cabinet for approval, said Palestinian politician Abbas Zaki. The move apparently was meant to head off chaotic infighting in a post-Arafat period of uncertainty. In a symbolic gesture, Qureia refused to sit at the head of the table, Arafat's place. The Palestinian Legislative Council also met Sunday and the PLO executive committee, which met Saturday, held a second meeting on Sunday night. "In a commitment ... to our president, our national symbol, we are convening all our institutions as we used to do when he was present," said Jibril Rajoub, Arafat's top security adviser. No concrete decisions were announced by any of the bodies from the flurry of meetings, and the leaders in Ramallah appeared to still defer to Arafat and his entourage in Paris. Finance Minister Salam Fayyad said he held a five-minute telephone conversation with Arafat, during which the ailing leader instructed him to ensure salaries are paid on time for government employees to celebrate the feast ending the holy month of Ramadan. Despite the show of unity many Palestinians have grown disillusioned with Arafat's rule Arafat won't be buried in Jerusalem." “ As long as I am prime minister, A Ariel Sharon Israeli prime minister in recent years, accusing his government of favoritism and rampant corruption that has left the Gaza Strip in chaos and swathes of the West Bank under the control of local gangs. Israel has long accused Arafat of fomenting violence and kept him confined to his headquarters in Ramallah for 2 1/2 years with threats to prevent him from returning. However, when Arafat's health deteriorated last week, the government said he could leave for treatment and would be allowed to return, prompting Arafat to head to a French hospital. Doctors were still trying to determine what ails Arafat. Despite pleas from several hardline Cabinet ministers to renge on his promise, Sharon "As long as I am prime minister, Arafat won't be buried in Jerusalem," he told his Cabinet, according to participants in the meeting. reiterated Sunday that Arafat would be allowed to return. But Sharon ruled out a Jerusalem burial for the Palestinian leader. Arafat has said he wants to be buried in Jerusalem, at the holy site known to Jews as the Temple Mount and to Muslims as the Haram as-Sharif, or Noble Sanctuary. Israel has marked a possible burial site for Arafat in the Jerusalem suburb of Abu Dis, in the West Bank, security officials said. Israeli security officials have expressed concern that a funeral procession in Jerusalem could spin out of control. Israel also believes a Jerusalem burial would bolster Palestinian claims to the city and further polish Arafat's image. Rajoub, speaking on Israel TV, called Sharon's comments a "shameful disgrace," saying it was inappropriate to discuss the burial matter while Arafat was alive. Sharon's government has shunned Arafat as a terrorist and refused to meet with him in recent years. Saying the Palestinians had no leader interested in making peace, Sharon proposed his "unilateral disengagement" plan for leaving the Gaza Strip and four small West Bank settlements with no input from the Palestinians. Sharon told the Cabinet that Arafat's departure would not sway him from the plan, however he would not rule out new talks with an Arafat successor. “If a different, serious Palestinian leadership will be formed to dismantle the terror infrastructure, we will renew negotiations on the basis of the road map (peace plan) and maybe it will be coordinated with the disengagement plan,” Sharon said. “Nothing has happened in the field until now, so no point in changing the plan.” The departure of Arafat, 75, has left a gaping leadership hole among the Palestinians. Arafat has been their leader since 1969 and refused to groom a successor. Despite the spate of official meetings, it was clear the Palestinians had no potential replacement with Arafat's stature and certainly no one with the ability to assert control over his crumbling empire. Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said Sunday that Israel hoped Arafat would be followed by a new, more moderate, Palestinian leadership that would be willing to crack down on militants and talk peace with Israel. He declined to specify who would be an acceptable alternative. "It's their decision who they would like to choose after Arafat, but I believe that everyone after Arafat would be better than him," Shalom told The Associated Press. Meanwhile, an Islamic Jihad militant was killed Sunday in a fire fight with Israeli troops in the West Bank town of Jenin, where the army has been operating since last week, the army and Islamic Jihad said. Another militant injured in the shootout and four other suspects were arrested, the army said. Health organization discusses worldwide outbreak of flu THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — The World Health Organization has called an unprecedented summit meeting of flu vaccine makers and nations to expand plans for dealing with the growing threat of a flu pandemic. Sixteen vaccine companies and health officials from the United States and other large countries already have agreed to attend the summit next week in Geneva, Switzerland, on Nov. 11, said Klaus Stohr, influenza chief of the United Nations' health agency. With increasing signs that bird flu is becoming established in Asia and several worrisome human cases that can't be linked directly to exposure to infected poultry, it's only a matter of time until such a virus adapts itself to spread more easily from person to person and cause a severe worldwide outbreak, he said. "We believe that we are closer to the next pandemic than we ever were." Stohr said. "We believe we are closer to The world's total capacity for flu vaccine now is only 300 million doses, and it would take at least six months to develop a new vaccine to fight a pandemic. "If we continue as we are now, there will be no vaccine available, let alone antivirals, when the next pandemic starts," Stohr the next pandemic than we ever were." Klaus Stolz Influenza chief of the United Nations' health agency said. "We have a window of opportunity now to prepare ourselves." pandemic, which occurs every 20 to 30 years, when a flu strain changes so dramatically that people have little immunity from previous flu bouts. Flu kills about 36,000 people in the United States and a million worldwide each year by conservative estimates, Stohr said. But tens of millions die in a There were three pandemics in the 20th century; all spread worldwide within a year of being detected. The worst was the Spanish flu in 1918-19, when as many as 50 million people worldwide were thought to have died, nearly half of them young, healthy adults. More than 500,000 died in the United States. The 1957-58 Asian flu caused about 70,000 deaths in the United States, followed by the 1968-69 Hong Kong flu, which caused about 34,000 U.S. deaths. The current vaccine shortage in the United States, caused by loss of one of the country's two major flu shot suppliers, reveals how vulnerable the world is. The United States is the only nation that has commissioned work on potential pandemic bird flu vaccines, Stohr noted. The National Institutes of Health has given Aventis Pasteur and Chiron Corp. contracts to produce prototype bird flu vaccines that are expected to be ready for human tests late this year. Aventis already has made 8,000 doses at its plant in Swiftwater, Pa.; Chiron is making its doses at a factory in Europe, not the one in Britain that regulators shut down last month, causing the U.S. vaccine shortage. If a pandemic occurred and a vaccine wasn't ready, antiviral drugs could play a key role in slowing its spread, said Dr. Frederick Hayden, a University of Virginia virus expert. It. too, is in short supply "It's hard to get explicit numbers but the production capacity worldwide is very limited," making it difficult to develop an international stockpile that could be used in a pandemic, Hayden said.

Hearings on the motions beginning Monday will test the boundaries of international law on the eve of U.S. elections that could ultimately change the mission that has detained some 550 terror suspects from more than 40 countries in a U.S. military base in Cuba, most without access to lawyers. Only four of the detainees, classified as enemy combatants, have been charged with war crimes and face trials before a special three-member military panel starting in December. The first pre-trial hearing is for David Hicks, an Australian cowboy who joined Afghanistan's ousted Taliban regime. He is charged with attempted murder, aiding the enemy and conspiracy to attack civilians, commit terrorism and Before his Jan. 11 trial can start, the panel must hear a series of motions disputing the charges and challenging his nearly three-year detention at the remote U.S. outpost. destroy property. Hicks has pleaded innocent. President Bush ordered the military commissions about three years ago, the first time the United States ordered such trials since World War II. But defense lawyers contend the U.S. military can't charge someone for a crime they committed before the president ordered the commissions. They also allege that bin Laden's al-Qaida organization isn't a state, so international laws of war don't apply. If Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) wins tomorrow's election, he could abandon the presidential order. Kerry's running mate, John Edwards, has said he would scrap the commissions and establish a new system modeled on established military courts-martial. If defense pre-trial motions are accepted, it also could throw the whole process into turmoil and possibly disrupt or postpone further trials at Guantanamo. FLU: Only high-risk people allowed to get vaccine at clinic CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A She said the screening has been catered more toward a college crowd. No nursing home residents and no children will be allowed at clinics even if they their parents work at or attend the University of Kansas. "They're not KU students nor do they work for the University," Strother said. She suggested parents call the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department at 843-0721 to see if more vaccine is available in the city or county. The line is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Both the state and the county health department are part of an area-wide redistribution effort, Roderick L. Brembay, Secretary of KDHE, said last week at a press conference. Any left-over vaccine will be re-distributed throughout the county or other areas in need of vaccine, Strother said. According to KDHE, about 20,000 people die and 300,000 people are hospitalized each year because of influenza. Edited by Ryan Greene REGISTRATION: Provisional ballots available to citizens CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A Boots said he didn't have an estimate of the number of registration forms that were filled out in pencil. "There were too many to try to call for the ones that were filled out in pencil." Boots said. Writing in the current year for date of birth was a common problem that Patty Jaimes, Douglas County clerk saw. She said last week that her office was still trying to contact people who had problems with their voter registration forms. Jaimes said a provisional ballot, which is cast by voters whose eligibility is still being confirmed, was the only option for anyone who had problems. Requesting a provisional ballot is a voter's right, according to the Douglas County Kansas Web site. If the County Clerk's office has other questions regarding the voters' qualifications, Jaimes said they are instructed to vote using a provisional ballot as well. Jaimes said the County Board of Canvassers would review the provisional ballots the Monday following the election. She said they would look at the reason for the provisional ballot and then would decide whether to count the ballot. Jaimes said the board uses the Kansas Elections Standards, a set of guidelines written by the Kansas secretary of state, some county clerks and the Election Commission. Jaimes said her office updated its Web site, www.douglas-county.com, every morning so that voters registered in Douglas County can check the status of their registration.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY. DOUGLAS COUNTY Charles Branson Charles Branson is the Democratic candidate for Douglas County District Attorney. He said he wants to start a consumer protection division in the county, similar to those in other Kansas counties. This program would prosecute things like unscrupulous acts of businesses and scam artists, he said. He also wants a better witness and victim awareness program, where someone from the office would instruct witnesses and victims about the process, so that they could allay their fears. Another priority for him is to improve the record of the office in jury trials. Christine Kenney Christine Kenney is the Republican incumbent District Attorney for Douglas County seeking re-election. She said she wanted to focus her efforts on domestic, child and elder abuse with another term. "More and more of our senior citizens are being targeted because of their unique resources," she said. She said senior citizens who had savings accounts and investments that they had saved up their whole lives were targets for criminals. She also said she wants to coordinate with other agencies to improve services for those who have been victimized. "My view is that we need to take a pro-active approach to criminal activities, and not just respond to crimes," she said Mark Buhler STATE SENATE, 2ND DISTRICT Mark Buhler, Republican incumbent State Senator for the Second District, wants to keep focusing on education. "Of all the things states do with their money, education may be the most important," he said. He has always been supportive of higher education, he said. He also wants to get more of secondary and elementary education funds into the classrooms. He also said he supports small business development throughout the district. Marci Francisco Marci Francisco is the Democratic challenger for the Second District State Senate seat. She said she wants to support the Democratic governor, Kathleen Sebelius, and her initiatives. She said she wants more funding for higher education. "We need to fund higher education well enough that we're not looking to student tuition to fund improvements to academic buildings," she said. She also wants to look to wind energy as an option for the future, and she wants to raise the Kansas minimum wage, which she said was at $2.65 per hour. Jim Mullins is the Reform party candidate for the Kansas Senate's Second District. He said he supports allocating money to Kansas schools for the next three years, building in the rate of inflation, so that they know what they'll be getting. Then he said he would expect the schools to divert more money to the classroom, from 58 percent currently, to 61.5 percent. This would bring Kansas up to the national average. He said the people of Kansas should vote on quality of life issues, like gay marriage and gambling. He said he would want universities to have more autonomy and accountability, and would support a tax increase as a last resort. Jim Mullins Rich Lorenzo KANSAS HOUSE,10TH DISTRICT Tom Holland Rich Lorenzo is the Republican candidate for the 10th District seat in the Kansas House of Representatives. He said he wants to focus on business issues and health care reform. "We should be working hard to create jobs in the state," he said. He also supported the creation of health care savings accounts in Kansas. He was in favor of "responsible funding" of higher education, and said he needs to get involved in the state legislature and figure out what the needs were and would address the problem more then. The Democratic incumbent for the 10th District seat is Tom Holland. He supports increased funding for higher education in Kansas. "I do not think the state has done its job," he said. He supports more funding for schools to attract "the best and brightest to KU." He said University resources could be used to bring jobs into the state, as well. He said he also wants to work with Gov. Kathleen Sebelius (D-Kan.) to create a major medical program to help get more people health insurance. He said he supports a tax cut for small businesses to help promote job growth in the state. Robert Garrard A third candidate for the 10th district seat in the Kansas House is Libertarian Robert Garrard. He said he is running to provide an alternative to a vote for a Democrat or Republican. He said he supports economic liberties and civil liberties. This includes tax cuts in the short term, and a long-term goal of making public schools completely private in the state of Kansas. That would provide parents with more choice in which school to send their children and would provide teachers with more choice in what to teach, he said. He also doesn't think the government should be involved in marriage of any sort. "The government doesn't give licenses to make love or have babies, so why should they give licenses to get married?" he said. STATE SENATE, 3RD DISTRICT Roger Pine The 3rd State Senate district in Kansas features Republican Roger Pine, who said he is focused on three key areas that need to be improved — economic development, good education and government efficiency. He said he supports higher education funding, and would be willing to raise taxes for education funding as a last resort. "Government efficiency is the responsibility of all of us," he said. "To look carefully at the dollars we are receiving, and make sure those dollars are being spent in the best way possible." He said the state needs to improve conditions for small businesses and the agriculture industry to encourage growth. Jan Justice Jan Justice is the Democratic nominee for the State Senate 3rd District seat. She said she would work to lower the cost of health care and prescription drugs. She said she is also interested in funding creating a "life-long learning system" in the state. "It's critical that we fund higher education," she said. "With the cost being high and higher, it makes it difficult for students." She also wants to focus on a better security system against terrorism in the state and wants to bring better renewable energy options to the state, such as wind energy and ethanol. KANSAS HOUSE,45TH DISTRICT Tom Sloan Tom Sloan is the Republican incumbent for the Kansas House of Representatives' 45th District. He said he wants to continue to fund pre-K through University education. "I think it takes a tax increase, from both income and property taxes," he said. He also said he was one of the leaders in the House on issues like more fully developing wind energy resources and improving the quality of water in the state. He also said he is a supporter of classified employees at the university level, who he said deserve higher pay. Patrick Wilbur Patrick Wilbur is the Libertarian challenger for the 45th District's Kansas House of Representatives' seat. He said the current increases and level of funding for education are adequate. "It kind of alarmed me that the legislature thought that the solution to the K-12 problem was to raise taxes," he said. He said he would not support State Senator Susan Wagle's (R-Wichita) efforts against the sex class taught by Dennis Dailey, professor of social welfare. "That bothered me a lot," he said. He said he would support a "minimalist government" and more freedom for the people. A year's "experience Reasons for Change The Douglas County D.A. has asked voters to "trust her experience."

BY FRANK TANKARD ftankard@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER TOPEKA — Kansas' Benson Chesang was all that stood between Colorado runner Brent Vaughn and the Buffaloes' eighth straight individual men's title at the Big 12 Championships on Saturday. After leading for half the race, Chesang held off a late charge from Vaughn to win the eight-kilometer race in 24:07.43, one second ahead of Vaughn. "I really feel that I did something good just to break the tradition of Colorado winning the event every year," Chesang, a Ravine, Kenya, sophomore, said. Chesang said he hardly slept in the three nights leading up to the meet because of a bad cold.

Chesang's brother Mathew, a senior at Kansas State, stayed about 10 meters behind Chesang in second for much of the race before Vaughn passed him with 100 meters to go. Kansas freshman Colby Wissel also had an impressive race, placing 19th in 25:11.54 as the men's team finished fourth for the second straight year, Wissel, an Elm Creek, Neb., native, was the fifth freshman finisher overall. "Actually, I was thinking he was going to run with me," Chesang said of his brother. "But I don't know what happened, I guess." "Up until this point I didn't think that I ran the greatest so far this year," he said. "But this is the conference meet, you got to come ready to run.

Soccer captures Big 12 title BY KELIS ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER With 40 seconds remaining in Friday's Kansas women's soccer game, the chant of "Big 12 champs" filled the air. The team's coaches and players patiently watched as the final seconds of the 4-0 victory over Iowa State ticked away on the game clock and proceeded to pour onto the field in a wild celebration. Coach Mark Francis was mugged by his wife and kids before he could make it ten yards onto the field. Shortly after, he was greeted with a bear hug from Kansas athletics director Lew Perkins. The players ran circles around the field, some holding up a banner proclaiming "2004 Big 12 Champions," while others sprinted alongside the bleachers, giving high fives to every fan RELATED NEWS For more on the soccer team's seven seniors, see page 2B titles you win, the better it looks for the whole athletic department, not just the soccer team." who wanted one.

There would be no Big 12 road victory for coach Mark Mangino. AMES, Iowa —The college football world turned on its head this weekend. "Every loss is tough, but this one definitely hurts a little more," junior line backer Kevin Kane said. Over a weekend that saw the worst teams beat the best teams, Kansas did its best to beat itself. Saturday's 13-7 loss to Iowa State not only continued Kansas road woes, it also beat down Kansas' ever-diminishing chances to play football in December. After suffering several injuries against Oklahoma, Kansas looked to its reserves to fill in and find a victory. Instead, they came away with more injuries and another mark in the "L" column. Starting center senior Joe Vaughn, sophomore quarterback Adam Barmann and junior running back Clark Green all missed parts of the game with injuries. With a depleted secondary, Iowa State probably could have succeeded in throwing the ball down field. Instead, they attempted to run the ball. Iowa State ran the ball 54 times for 179 yards, an average of just 2.6 yards per carry. Part of that can be chalked up to Iowa State's offensive struggles, but most of the credit should go to a Kansas defense which had another strong showing. 26 SEE UPSET ON PAGE 3B Adam Barmann, sophomore quarterback, rushes for four yards against Iowa State on Saturday.

Graves' decision to leave the team reduces an already small Kansas roster to only nine players. After two years at Southwest Tennessee Community College, Graves transferred to Kansas and started 26 games at point guard. In the 2004-2004 season, she averaged 7.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 29.6 minutes.

When Brown hit the ensuing serve far out of bounds, the Kansas State rout was on. The Wildcats went on a 10-2 spurt that included four kills, three blocks and two aces, sealing the 30-20 victory.

The Jayhawks defeated the Cyclones 4-0 to clinch the title. Tears flowed on Friday at what may have been the last game played at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex this year as coaches, family, teammates and fans gave respect to the seven seniors who aided in turning the program into Big 12 Championship team. The soccer team capped its Big 12 Championship season with a 4-0 senior day victory over Iowa State. Each of the seven seniors played a part in the four Jayhawk goals. For the first goal of the game senior forward Rachel Gillfillan got past two Cyclone defenders to knock in a pass from sophomore defender Holly Gault. "My one major move is the cut and everybody on the team knows about it," Gillfan said. "Yet I think with my long legs I'm able to still cut people and I just really wanted to go at people today and just go at the goal." Gillfillan ranks second all-time for points scored at Kansas. She ended the regular season with 17 goals and 65 for her career. "Above and beyond the points scored, that's great and I definitely think it's something I want to do to help the team," Gilfillan said. "I just want to be remembered for being an overall good player, like I affected the game when I was in and just controlled it." On the next goal senior midfielder Gabriela Quiggle assisting junior forward Caroline Smith. It was Quiggle's second assist of the season. Quiggle said she ranked the assist and the day as whole as one of her top memories from her four years at Kansas. "It's a big memory. That's definitely one that's going to stick out," Quiggle said. "There's many great memories with this team and this is definitely one that's going to be on the top. It's great to win on senior day." Nearly five minutes after Quiggle's assist senior goalkeeper Meghan Miller made a one-on-one save that got a roar from the crowd. The save was the only one needed from Miller. On the third goal of the match it was Smith connecting with another goal, this time receiving a pass from senior defender Stacy Leeper, which was Leeper's first point of the season. On the final goal of the game senior forward Monica Brothers got in on the action when she received a pass from Smith and capped off the Jayhawk offensive barrage. After making only one save in 60 minutes of play. Miller was given a rest by freshman goalkeeper Colleen Quinn. An emotional Miller received a loud ovation from the crowd as she headed toward the bench where she received a hug from coach Mark Francis. weeks when she first got here. We were pretty sure she'd end up on our porch back home in Seattle," Binke said. "To stay and to help build a team and get to this point, we are in awe of that and of all the seniors that did it." "I got chills coming off the field when (the crowd) started clapping for me," said Miller. "It's good to go out like this." While the seniors saw much success and felt much happiness throughout the game, there was one piece of heartache, as Leeper was injured in the second half. After being helped off the field, Leeper was later carted away from the complex. It is hard to imagine this defensive-minded team without Miller in front of the goal, but her mother said there was a slight moment where Miller might not have been in a Jayhawk uniform. Miller's parents, Greg and Binke Miller, made the trip from Seattle to see her in her final home game. The Millers, who have been to nearly 80 percent of this year's games, have had the opportunity to see their daughter unify this team to achieve Big 12 Champion status. While Francis is excited about a Big 12 Championship, he said he is more excited for the seniors. "I think they've really grown together as a team," Greg Miller said. "Over the four years we've been able to see the team grow, play better as a team, play more as a unit." "I don't think we ever thought this would come to this, because she cried for six "The most exciting thing to me is for the seniors, because they really have been the group that's turned the program around," Francis said. "Given the history of the last four years of what this team's done and they are the core of the group that's been able to turn it around." — Edited by Ashley Bechard Kansas athletics calendar TODAY Men's golf at Stanford, all day, La Quinta, Calif.

SOCCER: Final game celebrates seniors, Big 12 Championship The victory against Iowa State not only capped off the Jayhawks' Big 12 title run, but also the team's best season in school history. Kansas finished the regular season with an all-time best 16 wins and heads into the Big 12 tournament with the No. 1 seed. The triumph was especially sweet for the team's seven seniors. Francis took each starting senior out of the game, one by one, late in the second half to let the crowd give them one final ovation. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Two seniors recorded goals, with Monica Brothers and Rachel Gilfillan each scoring, and Miller posted yet another shutout in the home finale. Quiggle passed to junior forward Caroline Smith, who then sent the ball into the unprotected goal. Smith scored her team-leading ninth goal of the season in the game's 46th minute. Smith took a bouncing pass from senior defender Stacy Leeper and fired a perfectly placed line drive just underneath the cross bar from 35 vards out. "That's the most impressive goal we've had from outside of the box all year," Francis said. "She ripped it, and it was going against the wind, too." Kansas finished off the 4-0 rout when Smith passed to senior forward Monica Brothers, who fired a shot past the Iowa State goalie. The only unhappy moment of the day came when Leeper suffered a leg injury in the second half. It is unclear how serious the injury is, but she could not walk under her own power and had to be helped off the field. Kansas will now travel to San Antonio, Texas to play in the Big 12 tournament.

Offense struggles in Saturday's loss Jayhawks go through three quartebacks, unable to produce victory By RYAN COLAIANNI rcolaianni@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER AMES. Iowa — For the second straight week the Kansas offense struggled moving the football and gaining first downs. This week, the Jayhawks' problems can be attributed to the loss of sophomore quarterback Adam Barmann in the second quarter to an apparent arm injury. After the injury, coach Mark Mangino replaced Barmann with junior Brian Luke rather than going with Jason Swanson, who played in the past two Jayhawk contests. "He was healthy again and he looked sharper." Mangino said of Luke. "The anticipation with him was that we could get the ball down the field a little bit because he is strong armed, but that's not the way it played out." Luke was sacked three times in addition to going just 2-4 for three yards. He lost 32 yards on the three sacks. Luke began the season as the team's number two quarterback but didn't see any playing time due to an injury. Mangino said this was the first time this season that Luke was completely healthy. But that didn't help the offense. "Offensively we weren't very good. We need continuity with our offense and we need to get in sync," Mangino said. "The offense was just not productive enough to win." Luke gave up one fumble, which Iowa State's Brent Curvey recovered and returned for the game winning touchdown. It was the second straight week that Curvey returned a fumble for a touchdown. "I was ready to go in.I was very comfortable heading into the game." Jason Swanson Junior quarterback Swanson knew coming in that he was the third option at quarterback, but he said he didn't resign himself that he wasn't going to play. Swanson also told the coaching staff prior to the game that he was ready to play if needed. Kansas went into halftime down 10-0. When the second half began, Mangino went with Swanson. "I was ready to go in," Swanson said. "I was very comfortable heading into the game." guy, relentless," Iowa State coach Dan McCarney said. "I've never had a lineman have two returns for TDs before." Before Barmann left the game, the Jayhawks were having some success moving the football, particularly on quarterback draws. Barmann ran four times for 24 yards. However, the final time he ran the football he was injured and left the game. Barmann connected on his first pass for 27 yards but then went 4-11 for 28 yards after that completion. The defense did not give up a single touchdown and kept Iowa State to a field goal on a drive which the team started from the Kansas nine-yard line. "I don't think any one played poorly on the whole defensive unit," Mangino said. UPSET: Defense shines, not allowing a single touchdown Defensive players echoed Mangino's comments and expressed their own frustration with continued strong defensive performances not capitalized on by the offense. "It's been this way all season," junior linebacker Nick Reid said. "Got to make more plays on defense, I guess." Unfortunately for Kansas, its offense never really found its stride. While Kansas managed to out-gain Iowa State in total offensive yards 208-192, it recorded only seven more yards then it did in its opening game against Tula. Part of this could be attributed to the loss of John Randle, who was in the game for only four plays. However, at that point, Adam Barmann left the field after being nailed on a four-yard rush from his own 37. As he walked off the field, his right arm was hanging limp at his side. With a weak running game, passing was important to the Jayhawks, as was having a quarterback who could scramble his way out of trouble. It looked like Kansas would be fine in that respect, as quarterback Adam Barmann had passed for 55 yards and rushed for 24 more yards midway through the second quarter. On came junior quarterback Brian Luke, who has not played all season. "Luke has practiced very well," Mangino said. "He's healthy again and he's starting to look sharper." repeatedly held the ball too long and committed costly fumbles. On a second and ten from his 49, Luke panicked under pressure and fumbled the ball. Fortunately for Kansas, it rolled out of bounds before an ISU player could snatch it up. Kansas lost 11 yards on that fumble. On the very next play, however, Luke snuck again. When the second half started, Kansas had a new man at the helm. Swanson said that he was not surprised to have come into the game. Junior Jason Swanson, who has split time with Barmann over the last two weeks, came in after missing most of this week's practices because of an injury. “There's always a possibility I'm going to play, so I try to stay emotionally ready,” he said. Overall, Kansas' three quarterbacks were 14-31 for 128 yards. The team combined to throw three interceptions, while Swanson threw the only touchdown. After the game, Kansas' players were faced with the fact that one more loss would disqualify the team from any bowl game. No Kansas team has gone to a bowl in back-to-back seasons. Even with those cold facts looming over them, the Kansas team appeared committed to the rest of the season. "Our backs were against the wall, regardless. We had to win four, now we have to win three," Simmons said. Game Notes: The temperature at kickoff was just 48 degrees, with 30 mile-per-hour winds. Those strong head winds contributed to the four interceptions by causing several balls to simply stop in midair.

Today's Birthday (Nov. 1). Today's Birthday (Nov. 1). Scrimping and saving in the past has set you up well for this year. Follow through on a commitment you made years ago. Travel is required. Aries (March 21-April 19). Achieve the comfort level to which you'd like to become accustomed. Work, planning and miracles are involved, but what the heck. No guts, no medals. Taurus (April 20-May 20). Others can be a big help, and you may not even have to ask. Listen carefully, and you'll gather more than enough information. Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 7. Cancer (June 22-July 22). HOROSCOPES You're starting to figure out you need to work, not just for fun. Start the money flowing your way by simply asking for more of it. Cancer (June 22-July 22). Today is an 8. You're cute and getting cuter. The question seems to be, are you the seducer or the seductee? The choice is yours. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Today is a 6. Obligations weigh heavily, and they won't lift until you've done what you promised. This has something to do with cleaning up your house, and perhaps the attic and garage. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today is a 7. Friends are happy to help you avoid an easily made mistake. Don't learn the hard way. You know people who've already been there and done that. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Today is a 7. You're lucky, but don't get too assertive. You'll have much better success with sweetness than with confrontation. Keep a gentle tone of voice. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). Today is a 7 Today is a 7. There are all sorts of things going on behind the scenes. You don't have to figure them all out, just ask leading questions. Today is a 6. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 6. Funding is a consideration, but how do you get it, and what will it cost? Instead of avoiding this difficult chore, acquire some expertise. It'll serve you well. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 7. The others have things all figured out. You just have to go along. We're assuming that you're hanging out with people who share your goals. If not, wait for a better time to try to make a break. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.18). Today is a 6. You're anxious to get going, but there's work to be done. Limit your travel to daydreaming for the next few days. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 9. You'll feel a growing compulsion to venture beyond your old comfort zone. You've outgrown it. You need to take new territory.

The Jayhawks brought home a 125-80 victory. The dual meet win was the first for the Jayhawks this season, moving their record to 1-2. Kansas won eight of the meet's 11 events, which included a one-meter diving competition. Freshman Terri Schramka recorded two pool record performances, which included her individual first-place finish in the 200 freestyle with time of 1:52.36. Schramka, along with senior Amy Gruber, junior Lindsey Urbachka and freshman Anne Liggett set a new pool record in the 200 freestyle relay with a time of 1:36.57. The 200 medley relay team of Uratchka, senior Jackie Krueger and sophomores Hannah Bakke and Jenny Short set a pool record with a time of 1:48.80. Junior Gina Gnatzig recorded the fourth pool record of the "We had a really good meet for the first part of this weekend." Clark Campbell Swimming and diving coach night for Kansas in the 100 backstroke with a time of 59.09. "We had a really good meet for the first part of this weekend," coach Clark Campbell said. "We competed well against an SMS team that was really fired up for the competition. Schramk added to her two event wins with another win in the 500 freestyle with a time of 5:03.27. Kansas also added first place finishes from Bakke in the 100 breaststroke with a time of 1:05.84 and Liggett, who recorded her first career individual event win in the 100 freestyle with a time of 53.76. In diving action, sophomore Shelby Noonan won her first event of the year in the one-meter competition with a score of 237.40. Edited by Ryan Greene VOLLEYBALL: Loss to Wildcats ends two-game winning streak VOLLEYBALL: CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B After an ace by Kansas junior middle blocker Josi Lima, Hejjas scored another kill, beginning a seven-point rally for Kansas State that sealed the outcome of the game early. The Wildcats won 30-18 despite another ace by Lima. Kansas' serving, Bechard said, was one of the bright spots of the afternoon. The jayhawks had seven aces and nine errors. Serving got the Jayhawks off to a fast start in the third game. as Kansas State setter Gabby Guerre missed the opening serve. Kansas sophomore outside hitter Jana Correa responded with an ace, giving her team a quick 2-0 advantage. The Jayhawks trailed 16-20 after an attack error by Michael's, but she responded with an ace shortly after. An attack error by Heijas pulled Kansas to within one, 19-20, and forced Kansas State coach Susie Fritz to take a timeout. After the break, Michaels returned to the service line and reeled off another perfect serve to the back corner of Kansas State's territory. But it didn't count, as a Kansas State player attempting to play the ball had run into an official. "They felt the line judge impeded her opportunity to get the ball," Bechard said. "From my angle, she didn't have any chance to play the ball. It's a bad break. Obviously, it changed the complexion of that game." On the redo of the point, the Wildcats' Hejjas scored her 17th kill of the match, giving Kansas State a two-point advantage. The match would have been tied had Michaels' serve counted. "It was a really really critical point in the game," Michaels said. "But we shouldn't have been in that predicament in the first place. Michael had a solo block later in the set to give Kansas a 28-27 lead. "We fought a lot harder and blocked a lot better and, overall, just played a lot better in the third game," Bechard said. "But you've got to wake up a little earlier." Kansas State answered with a three-point run, and the game ended on an ace by Kansas State outside hitter Agata Rezende. Michael, whose teams never defeated K-State in eight tries during her four seasons at Kansas, said she was upset Kansas didn't play better in Manhattan. "Considering we played so well last time, it's a disappointment," she said. "We should have come out with more fire." Brown, who played in Ahearn Field House for the first time Saturday, said the atmosphere in Manhattan made it difficult to be successful. "They're a very good team, and it's especially hard to play in a place like this." she said. Bechard said the dimensions of the former basketball gymnasium created depth-perception problems for players used to playing in closer confines. Brown said she was still adjusting to playing in larger arenas. "It's the higher ceiling," she said. "It's hard to judge the ball." The Jayhawks will play in another former basketball arena when they travel to play the Missouri Tigers at 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Hearnes Center. - Edited by Ryan Greene Junior Matt French crossed the line next for the Jayhawks in 25:27.07, placing 27th. CHESANG: Top finisher places despite stress factor Sophomore Tyler Kelly wasn't far behind, finishing in 34th in 25:42.24. Senior Chris Jones rounded out the scoring for the Jayhawks in 40th with a time of 25:45.1. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B The 'Hawks finished with 116 points behind Oklahoma State, who placed third with 108 points. Colorado won the team title for the ninth straight year with 48 points. A team's point total is calculated by adding up the places of its top five finishers. the injury-plagued Kansas women's team finished the 6-kilometer race in 10th, placing in the same position as last year. Senior Megan Manthe finished first on the team, despite a stress fracture in her left foot, placing 47th in 23:20.61. She said she hadn't run in four weeks, but had been biking, swimming and using an elliptical machine to stay in shape. "I was a little hurt, but I tried not to think about it," Manthe said. Freshman Connie Abbott came in right behind Mante, in 48th, with a time of 23:21.76. Sophomore Dena Seibel was the Jayhawks' next finisher in 69th, 23:58.2, followed by freshman Mallory Richardson, 75th, 24:06.73, and sophomore Christine Lathrop, 83rd, 24:43.21. Colorado had the top three finishers, including winner Renee Metiver, who completed the course 20:28.05. The Buffaloes won with 25 points. The Jayhawks tallied 251 points. Kansas sophomore Laura Major pulled out of the race early on when she felt a pain in her hip while going up a hill. Her hip has "I was a little hurt, but I tried not to think about it." Megan Manthe Cross country senior "There was a long uphill, and my hip's not used to doing that," Major said. "I hadn't run uphill in a while." been sore for over a month, causing her to take a week off after the team's last race, NCAA Pre-Nationals on Oct. 16. A strong, cold wind blew throughout the women's race, which started at 10 a.m., before dying down for the men's race an hour later. "I was pretty cold for the first half," Richardson said. "I actually warmed up in the second half and got kind of hot when the wind wasn't blowing directly on me. But I think it slowed me down a little bit." At the conclusion of the meet, when the athletes walked up to the medal stand to accept their awards, Benson Chesang shot his left fist into the air as the first-place medallion was placed around his neck. Because Colorado had swept the men's and women's races for the sixth year in a row, this was a proud moment for Chesang, and for the Jayhawks. "Colorado has set a standard of excellence, and when you do better than those guys, that means you're doing well," Redwine said. "That's what I want for our team. I want to set a standard of excellence so people can say that it means something to beat Kansas." — Edited by Ryan Greene kansan.com Dr. Mahmoud El-Hajjali of Coventry Not getting hit on enough?

He punched a hole in the ballot next to his candidate's name, put the ballot in an envelope and placed the envelope into the roll box "It was a good experience, it was fun," Ersen of Izmir, Turkey, said. Meanwhile Gaston Araoz, La Paz, Bolivia, senior, is going to be a part of the U.S. election process even though he can't vote. He is volunteering with the Kids Voting USA program in Lawrence today. "We don't have this kind of thing in my country and it's a good way to teach people about voting," Araoz said. "I want to learn and help at the same time." International students at the University of Kansas do not get to vote in today's election, but they are paying attention to the outcome. Ersen compared the United States to the Roman Empire in that the whole world will be paying attention to this presidential election. "With so much power and influence, you want to know who will be getting that power." Ersen said. Ugo Okoronkwo, Nigeria freshman, said he wants a change in administration. "If Bush wins, the whole world is going to crash." Okronkonwo said. His main concern with the Bush administration is how hard it was for him to get into the country just to study.

Jay McLaughlin, treasurer for the College Republicans, was in Iowa last night working on a 72-hour task force, an effort dedicated to getting out the Republican vote in the swing state of Iowa. "I haven't slept in that long either." McLaughlin said. About 25 members of the College Republicans have been traveling in Iowa participating in the task force.

Cindv Yeo/KANSAN E-DAY John Kervay FOR PRESIDENT Connections in politics important BY AUSTIN CASTER acaster@kansan.com ACASTER KANSAN STAFF WRITER Despite their different views on the war, tax cuts and gay marriage, George W. Bush and John Kerry had similar college experiences. Each had affiliations with social organizations while in college. George W. Bush graduated from Yale in 1968, where he was president of Delta Kappa Epsilon and was a member of the Skull and Bones secret society. His father, George H.W. Bush, also pledged membership in both organizations. John Kerry graduated from Yale two years earlier, in 1966, also a Bonesman. In fact, 21 of the 43 United States presidents have fraternity affiliations, according to www.greekzone.com. More locally. Kevin Yoder, Kansas House Republican for District 20, served as student body president at the University of Kansas in 1998 and 1999 and was president of his fraternity, Lambda Chi Alpha. Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, said he did not think there was a connection between fraternities and politics. Family connections were more important in politics than Greek affiliation, he said. Jeff Dunlap, student body vice president and member of Delta Upsilon, said he could see the importance of greek organizations in political careers, but fraternities are different than secret societies. Although both probably promoted brotherhood and character development in a similar fashion, SEE CONNECTIONS ON PAGE 6A Student who fell remains critical Sara Anne Driessel was still listed in critical condition yesterday at the University of Kansas Medical Center, Dennis McUlloch, director of public relations, said.

Four years after getting the vaccine, 94 percent of women were protected from infection with the virus that causes most cervical cancers and none had developed worrisome precancerous conditions, a study showed. "We're thrilled about these results. The immune responses seem to be really long-lasting," said Eliav Barr, who leads development of the vaccine for Merck & Co. The company plans to seek U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval next year for an expanded version of the vaccine that also could be used to prevent genital warts in both women and men. The new study was funded by Merck and led by University of Washington researchers who presented results yesterday at a meeting of the American Society for Microbiology. If the vaccine makes it to market, it would be the second developed to prevent cancer. The hepatitis B vaccine has dramatically reduced the number of infections that progress to liver cancer.

"We want to let the students know that there are hungry people in Lawrence and we can do something about that." Fadullah Firman, Jakarta, Indonesia, junior and MSAKU member. Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar and started this year on October 15. Muslims abstain from food and drink from approximately sunrise to sunset for one month. It is a month where Muslims try to cleanse their souls and find their best character for the rest of the year, Firman said. "We feed our body for 11 months; this is the one month where we feed our souls," he said. The pledging event is called "The Ramadan Fast-A-Thon: Get Hungry for Change" and is a national program with 156 other universities participating. The program began in 2001 at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville where the student Muslim group raised more than $500 for a local food pantry. TO SIGN UP TO FAST NOV. 10, PLEDGE AT THESE LOCATIONS Pledge at the Muslim Student Association table at Wescoe Beach from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday Pledge at the Muslim Student Association table in the Kansas Union from 11 a.m. to p.m. Monday through Friday. Pledge online at Cindy Yeo/KANSAN Pledges will be taken up to the day of fast, Nov. 10th. Last year the national program raised more than $60,000 to be donated to local shelters and food pantries, Jihad Alamarm, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, junior and MSAKU vice president, said. This is the first year for the student group to participate in the fast-a-thon at the University. "It is a chance for everyone to voluntary experience what the hungry go through," Alammar said. Jeremy Lyman, Overland Park junior, stopped by the MSAKU table in front of Wescoe Hall yesterday afternoon. He wasn't sure if he would be able to pledge but he thought the idea was interesting and showed the diversity on campus. Trenton Wilson, Hays sophomore, pledged to fast on Nov. 10 vesterdav afternoon. "I think it's a good cause and I like to support groups that try to help others," Wilson, a non-Muslim, said. That is a part of the campaign, to give an opportunity for students from all different religions to get together for a good cause, Alammar said. All participants have to pledge not to eat or drink during the daylight hours on Nov. 10. For every non-Muslim that pledges, a money donation will be given to the Lawrence Open Shelter by local businesses. Everyone who pledges is invited to a Middle Eastern dinner at the Douglas County Fairgrounds in building 21, 2110 Harper St. It will be a big feast for everyone to break fast together, Alammar said.

Maska Two die in Iraq; Gunmen kidnap American BAGHDAD, Iraq — Gunmen stormed the compound of a Saudi company in a fashionable Baghdad neighborhood yesterday, seizing an American, a Nepalese and four Iraqis after a gun battle in which a guard and one of the assailants were killed, police said. The American, who was no identified, was the 12th U.S. citizen reported kidnapped or missing in Iraq. He was grabbed about 500 yards from the house where two Americans and a Briton were kidnapped last month. All three were beheaded. Al Qaeda-affiliated movement of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi claimed responsibility for his kidnapping. WORLD NATION The dramatic abduction occurred two days after the decapitated body of Japanese backpacker Shosai Koda was found in western Baghdad. The Chief Justice Rehnquist being treated for cancer WASHINGTON — Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist revealed yesterday that he is undergoing chemotherapy and radiation treatment for thyroid cancer, signs he has a grave form of the disease and probably will not return to the bench soon. The election eve disclosure by the 80-year-old justice underscores the near certainty that the next president will make at least one appointment to the Supreme Court and probably more. Rehnquist had planned to join his colleagues when they returned to hear arguments yesterday after a two-week break. Instead, he issued a statement from home about the treatment he's receiving. It said he plans to work from home and made no mention of leaving the court. The chief justice did not disclose what type of thyroid cancer he has, how far it has progressed or the prognosis. —The Associated Press - The Associated Press November Wednesday, 11/6 Saturday 11/20 > children's music hours with melanie dill fall 2004 RAINBOW LANE > all performances 10:30 am booth a1 ALL PROFITS SUPPORT SERVICES FOR KU STUDENTS Oread Books Kansas Union Lower 2 oraadbooks@ku.edu www.jayhawks.com 785-864-4431 NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews Now. kansan.com Now.

This election day, the Kansan editorial board reminds readers of the importance of one particular body: The Kansas State Board of Education. The impact of the values of Kansas residents has been seen in the practice of Kansas politics. Recall when the State Board of Education removed evolution from state science standards. Voters voiced their concern by expelling members of the board who supported this change in curriculum. Bodies like the State Board of Education shape many important aspects of life in Kansas including public health, job training and nonviolence education. One issue in particular, sex education, is among the most important policy issues influenced by this particular government body. The Kansas middle school sex-ed curriculum focuses on abstinence. It acknowledges other options for birth and disease control, but those options aren't the main concern. Students echo the sentiments of experts that a lack of awareness about birth and disease control options leads to behavior resulting in public health concerns and unwanted pregnancies. There are also competing sources of information that "educate" students about sex, namely, movies, the Internet and peers. These sources glorify and provide misinformation that could be dangerous. Sex-ed should live up to its name. Teachers, focused on abstinence coupled with scare tactics, are not talking about sex. Abstinence is an option, a very effective one at that. But no matter how one-sided the discussion in sexed, it won't be the preferred method for many individuals. Other options must be discussed so students can make their own, informed choice. Open education can supplant untrue, dangerous and violent ideas from all forms of media. Sex educators can't pretend that the only option is abstinence, because if that were true America wouldn't be in the public health pickle in which it finds itself now. Real sex education is needed and can empower people, through honesty and objectivity, to make the "right" decisions. Even though sexed no longer directly concerns college students, the moral climate of the state is affected by your vote on these issues. Students who value open education, traditional values, liberal ideals, or all or none of those political possibilities can find a voice at the ballot box. Public policy has big impacts, so don't be left out: Impact policy. CANDIDATE PLATFORMS Editor's note: Last Thursday the Kansan invited candidates for state and local office or retention to submit statements on their platforms. The statement from McElhaney's opponent, Ermeling, ran yesterday. The statement from Gilchrist's opponent, Monshizadeh, ran Friday. We have a successful county government that is effective and efficient. With state funding challenges, the County Commission is moving Douglas County in the right direction. I want to keep county services and the entire county running smoothly. STAYSKAL'S VIEW I want to continue road implementation and improvement and provide continuity in leadership in continuing the work we have done as a county commission. I'm a lifelong resident. In 46 years I have seen many changes and most have been good.I've had fantastic opportunities,but we have to make sure our youth have the same opportunities. We need to re-evaluate the role we have given our planning commission, as final decisions go to the city or county. The planning commission is not a taxing authority. This is clearly out of its realm. Re-defining the role of the planning commission is a priority. Jere McElhaney Republican candidate for County Commissioner, 3rd District Congratulations to all first time voters on your involvement in the political process. Be it civic duty or a stimulating means of personal expression, I hope that your vote in this important election becomes a lifelong commitment. I would like to thank The University Daily Kansan for endorsing my candidacy. This is my first run for political office. It's hard work with an uncertain outcome, and all votes of confidence along the way are much appreciated. The office of Douglas County Treasurer is an elected position that gets minimal exposure, but we must not forget that the person elected is responsible to the citizens of the county. I am a candidate because I have heard stories and seen first hand the inconvenience that government offices often impose on the very people they are there to serve. I believe it is time to turn that around. The days when the County Treasurer's office had only to invest wisely and perform ethically are outdated. It is time to also accommodate busy lifestyles and adopt methods that model our service economy. Thank you, and I would appreciate your vote!

HE'S OKAY, MA'AM. IT'S JUST THAT TV HAS BEEN SPINNING POLITICAL NEWS FASTER THIS YEAR! STAYSKAL TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES 10 04 Wayne Stayskal/Knight Ridder/Tribune Sexuality too important to give up I love sex. A joint report between USA Weekend and the Kinsey Institute said, "Sexuality is central to all of us — even people who aren't sexually active." Our sexuality and how we view it is central to the organization of human society, the report said. According to the same report, more than 96 percent of men and 86 percent of women think of sex at least several times each month. Only 4 percent of men and 14 percent of women think about sex less than once a month. Recently I've been disinterested with sexual activity. I've just talked about it so much and am so bombarded by it in the media that I'm burned out. You try explaining how to give good blow jobs to every inquisitive girl who wanders across your path. I responded to my ennui by devising a plan with my friend Jen. We decided to desexualize my life for one month. I would not masturbate, watch porn, actively put myself into sexualized situations, think about sex, check out boys, go out dancing and worst of all: no snuggling. SEX 101 We had three goals in this study: To reinvigorate my ailing sex drive, to rechannel all the time I think about or do sexual activities to more productive purposes and to see what effects this sabbatical would have on how I viewed the world. After the experiment, I thought about what I learned for several weeks. I started Wednesday, Sept. 22 at midnight, exactly. STEPHEN MOLES opinion@hansan.com I lasted less than a week. Day one: By midnight I aready break the masturbation rule. My roommates mock me mercilessly about my experiment and try to turn me on by describing elaborate sex scenes. Day two: What the hell? It's only been one day. I have my first erotic daydream in class since high school. I feel incredibly uncomfortable because a) we're talking about poverty in third-world countries and b) it's about the guy sitting next to me. Day three: I have the will power of a fish. I was horny and my computer beckoned me. Afterwards, I feel marginally better. Did someone slip me Spanish fly in my sleep? Day four: I go to a party. I was good. No making out with drunken boys, no flirting, nothing. I give myself a gold star. Day five: My roommates keep setting me up for great jokes, but I can't tell them because they're too explicit. Also, I notice that I'm constantly trying not to check out boys. Day six. Okay, I fall off the wagon. I just can't do it anymore. I only lasted six days, and it was six days of breaking the rules. But I learned two things. First, sex permeates our lives. It's in the way we talk, move, act and what we wear. To successfully desexualize myself I would have had to become a hermit for a month. Second, denial is the best way to create desire. The second I stopped trying to be sexual, everything was turning me on. But three days earlier, nothing turned me on. During th experiment, I even had dirty thoughts about guys who I barely thought were attractive. I suggest you try this little experiment. Since the experiment, I have become more aware of my own desires and how sexualized our lives are. In this campus environment, sex is everywhere. Short skirts, firm bodies. There is no way to get around it. I consider myself fairly normal, albeit vocal, in the sex department, but I was driven nuts after less than a week of trying to restrain myself. What does that say about our age group? Maybe it means we can't control our sexuality. I doubt it. More so I think it means that sex is such an inescapable part of our age group and human existence. Restricting yourself completely will drive you crazy and do more harm than good. Masturbate occasionally, have responsible fun and understand where your sexual limits lie. Good night. Moles is a Lawrence junior in sociology Bring friendly smiles to campus Where have all the smiles and friendly nods gone? People are having less face-to-face interaction with one another. Communication among members of society seems to be at an all-time low, and our campus is no exception. The silent walks between classes, with most of us either talking on cell phones or jamming out to an iPod, have perplexed me ever since I arrived at the University of Kansas. The fact that someone can sit right next to me in a Budig Hall lecture and not even look in my direction still leaves me a bit confounded. When I try to strike up a conversation with a fellow Jayhawk on Wescoe Beach and am all but ignored, I am filled not with embarrassment but with bewilderment. Do I smile funny? JOHN BARRETT opinion@kansan.com M. JOHNSON COMMENTARY With so many modern distractions, it's all too easy to get caught up in a circumvention of personal interaction. For years, my parents, living in a Kansas City suburb, did not even know their neighbors' names. When visiting for the holidays, I watched with dismay as people arrived home from work, pulled up to their homes and into their garages and did not emerge until the next business day. The fact that someone can sit right next to me in a Budig Hall lecture and not even look in my direction still leaves me a bit confounded. Coming from a rural area near the junction of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, I was surprised by the lack of community within this Kansas city neighborhood. Absent were the friendly waves from the porch that I was used to. Rarely was there anyone even on the porch. When I arrived at the University, this feeling of isolation was still present. That is not to say that there is no community here on campus — quite the contrary. By comparison to other large universities, our student body does better In the face of technological innovation that sees us further removed from social interaction, we must make a concerted effort to remain bound to some semblance of genuine community. People aren't talking like they used to. Make it a goal to get to know the people around you just a bit better. than average. Just visit the bars during game time for an exemplary display of camaraderie. But this is the Midwest, not New York City where ignoring other people is a way of life. And I think we could be doing a much better job of communicating with one another between athletic events. This holds especially true when it comes to conversing with those outside of our normal social and economic circles. Expanding your horizons is what college is all about, and that isn't going to happen by talking to people who are just like you. My parents finally met their neighbors in the subdivision. They have since formed a tight-knit community highlighted by a monthly cookout. We can raise the level of communication on campus, and most times, a simple "hello" or "good morning" to your fellow students will do just fine.

All newly registered voters will be asked for a form of identification that should match their registered address. KUID cards will be accepted. Yesterday, the Kansan presented the other local races. BY ANDY HYLAND ahyland@kansan.com ahyland'S STAFF WRITER DOUGLAS COUNTY CLERK Marni Penrod Marni Penrod, deputy clerk for elections in Douglas County, is the Republican candidate for Douglas County Clerk. She said she would want to continue to work to implement the Help America Vote Act, which had already begun implementation this year. "There's really no way to be ready for this job except on the job experience," she said. She said she wanted to help transition to a central election database next year for the entire state, which she said would make it faster and simpler to keep track of votes. Jamie Shew Jamie Shew is the Democratic candidate for Douglas County Clerk. He said he could bring more efficiency to the office. He wants to conduct a top-to-bottom review of the election process. "We'll see what works, and what doesn't,' and fix the things that don't," he said. He said he supported a paper trail on electronic voting devices and wanted to make government more accessible. "It's important that we educate voters and that information gets out," he said. DOUGLAS COUNTY TREASURER Cindy Monshizadeh The Republican candidate for county treasurer is Cindy Monshizadeh. She said she thought she was qualified for the position because of her experience in the office as interim deputy treasurer, "I understand the regulations we all have to follow," she said. The county treasurer is responsible for collecting motor vehicle, real estate and other property taxes. She wants to increase the staff of the office and expand the online options for payment. "While I don't think that these will eliminate the lines, I do think they will help people pay their taxes," she said. Paula Gilchrist Paula Gilchrist is the Democratic candidate for Douglas County treasurer. She said she wanted to cut down on the long lines at the end of the month. She said she wanted to have other options for paying taxes, including online options and a person-to-person telephone service. She said that she had heard some citizens were sent home after not presenting a valid insurance card at the window, and she would offer options so that those people would not have to wait in line again. "I definitely wouldn't send them home," she said. DOUGLAS COUNTY COMMISSION'S THIRD DISTRICT Jere McEthaney Marguerite Ermeling Jere McEthanley is the Republican incumbent of the Douglas County Commission's Third District. His plan for another term is to keep improving. "We want to keep the momentum going," he said. He wants to continue to improve roadways in the county. "We want to make it more effective and safer for students and their families to travel to and from Lawrence," he said. He said that he and the commission had been "leaders" in helping to make the county's roads better. Marguerite Ermeling is an Independent running for the Third District seat of the Douglas County Commission. She said she wasn't willing to "sit and wait" for the South Lawrence Trafficway to be built, and thought the commission needed a "coordinated and comprehensive" transportation plan. She said the South Lawrence Trafficway was going to be held up in court for a long time, and that it may not be adequately funded if it survived the court battle. She said she wanted coordination among state, private and local funding to provide better roads. "It's a new way to approach our traffic issue," she said. Board of education race could alter teaching of science BY ANDY HYLAND ahyland@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The two candidates for the state board of education in the Fourth District will likely face another vote on the fate of science standards in Kansas. Bill Wagnon, the Democratic incumbent, said that he supported keeping evolution in the classroom. He said that evolution was key to understanding science, and that other arguments such as intelligent design belonged in religion classes. The argument for intelligent design is that life was designed by some higher being, and did not simply appear by a series of chance occurrences. He anticipated the subject of science standards would be brought up again this term. "I'm disappointed. It sends very mixed signals." he said. His challenger is Republican Bob Meissner. He said he supported the teaching of evolution. "Evolution is a scientifically credible theory that needs to be taught," he said. Meissner said he was open to considering the teaching of other scientifically credible theories, possibly including intelligent design, as well. He said he didn't want to "dig into this point" quite yet, and would study the available material at length and then make a decision. Hume Feldman, associate professor of physics and astronomy, helped bring a forum to the University of Kansas earlier this semester to ensure that evolution continue to be taught in high school science courses. "Intelligent design is completely not credible," he said. "It needs a supernatural being — intelligence. Once you bring the supernatural into science, it's not science." Others are pushing for intelligent design's inclusion. He said intelligent design was a perfectly legitimate belief-based argument, but belonged in churches. "The main problem with intelligent design is that they know the answer before they do the research," he said. John Calvert is a geologist and lawyer, and is a managing director of IDNet, a group devoted to promoting intelligent design with offices in Kansas, New Mexico and Minnesota. He thought the state board of education should not take up the issue again. He said intelligent design and evolution were competing hypotheses, and intelligent design should not be ignored in science classes. He suggested a curriculum that included a debate between intelligent design and evolution and let students make up their own minds. He said suppressing the disagreement would convert evolution into a kind of dogmatic ideology. He said there were numerous arguments that suggested intelligent design was a credible theory, including that the statistical probability for the origins of the universe happening completely by chance are so small to make them statistically impossible. - Edited by Johanna M. Maska STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION FOR KANSAS' FOURTH DISTRICT Bill Wagnon Bill Wagon is the Democratic incumbent on the State Board of Education for Kansas' Fourth District. He supports evolution being taught in science classes. "It's key to understanding science," he said. "The place for intelligent design is in a classroom on religion." He said he thought the subject of science standards would come up again during this term of the board. He wants to close the gap of performance for students and wanted to push for adequate school funding. Bob Meissner Bob Meissner is the Republican challenger for the Fourth District of the State Board of Education. He supported teaching evolution in schools. "Evolution is a scientifically credible theory that needs to be taught," he said. He said he would be open to "considering the possibility of other scientifically credible theories," such as intelligent design, if they were recommended by the science standards committee. "I have made it a point to maintain my unbiasedness," he said. He said he wanted to build on his 12 years of experience on school boards to push for more state funding. Also, he wants to close the gap of performance. "It's important to do that from the bottom up," he said. kansan.com If you want to fund our schools, lower health care costs, create good jobs and keep our streets safe. Vote the Democratic Slate!

Secret societies are different than many traditional fraternities because members are chosen in their senior year and they are non-residential social organizations. Dunlap said he would not vote for a candidate based on his fraternity affiliation, but others who were less informed might. "I'm sure that plays a factor," Dunlap, Leawood senior, said of greek affiliations. "You're always made aware of your famous alum. Once you learn those things you have more respect for those people." Students involved with fraternities and sororites have an opportunity to develop leadership skills they might not find elsewhere, said Laura Cripple, coordinator for fraternity and sorority life. Through fraternities and sororities, students develop leadership skills employers look for, she said "I think, in general, any activity gives them a benefit," Cripple said. "College is a great time to develop those skills." Bryan Young, Student Senate treasurer and Lambda Chi Alpha member, agreed. "The fraternity, just like any group or organization, requires you to think of someone else," Young, Friendswood, Texas, senior, said. He said fraternities acted as Thomas Jefferson, took office; 1801; school College of William and Mary; fraternity; Flat Hat Club FRATERNITY-AFFILIATED PRESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES Of the 43 U.S. presidents,21 were involved with fraternities John Quincy Adams, took office: 1825; school: Harvard University; fraternity: Phi Beta Kappa Rutherford Hayes, took office; 1877; school: Kenyon College, Harvard Law School; fraternity: Delta Kappa Epsilon (*) James Garfield, took office 1881; school: Williams College; fraternity: Delta Upsilon (Died Sept. 19, 1881) Chester Arthur, took office: 1881; school: Union College; fraternity: Psi Upsilon Grover Cleveland, took office: 1893; school: studied at home; fraternity: Sigma Chi (*) Benjamin Harrison, took office; 1889; school: Miami University; fraternity: Phi Delta Theta breeding grounds for leadership skills.

She was excited about the combining of library and information technology cultures, two fields that have traditionally been separate. Already in agreement with the direction of information services, she said she did not see the need to make any changes when she became vice provost.

WILSON Remember to VOTE Proven Leadership Barbara Ballard State Representative Forty Fourth State Representative Forty Fourth Campaign Treasurer: Chuck Fisher *Pd political advertisement* ↑ TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2004 NEWS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 7A Bush, Kerry finish up last-minute campaigning THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MILWAUKEE — President Bush and Sen. John Kerry reached for the finish line yesterday in a campaign for the ages, each claiming to be the strong, steady leader needed in a time of terrorism. "The world is watching," said the Democratic challenger in a race that defied safe prediction. "This election comes down to who do you trust." Bush said as Air Force One carried him to a half-dezen states on a final full day of campaigning. By election eve, uncounted millions of Americans had voted early in 32 states, including more than 1.8 million in Florida alone. Both campaigns primed Election Day turnout programs in battleground states from New Hampshire to Nevada. Democrats, claiming Republicans were seeking to discourage minority voters, won a pair of court rulings yesterday in Ohio that barred party representatives from challenging voters at their polling places. GOP lawyers quickly appealed, hoping for a reversal before polls opened at 6:30 a.m. on Election Day. The nation's terror alert — a constant reminder of the attacks of 2001 — remained at yellow for most of the country, despite the emergence late last week of a videotape of Osama bin Laden taunting Bush. After nearly eight months of head-to-head campaigning between the president and the Massachusetts senator, the final pre-election polls turned up tied 49-49 in one CNN-USA Today-Gallup survey, with Ralph Nader at 1 percent. Tight surveys in Florida as well as Ohio and other Midwestern states added to the uncertainty of the competition for 270 electoral votes. With the nation divided, Democrats needed ticket-splitters to help them to gain seats in Congress. Only nine of 34 Senate races on the ballot appeared competitive, seven of them in states where Kerry had not seriously contested Bush. Texas, the president's home state, figured to have an outsized influence on the battle for the House. There, five Democratic incumbents with 82 years seniority combined faced difficult challenges as the result of GOP-engineered redistricting. $ ^{*} $ Kerry made six stops in four states yesterday — two each in Ohio and Wisconsin — pledging to be an advocate for the middle class and those struggling to join it. "I've heard your struggles. I share your hopes. And together, tomorrow we have a chance to make a difference," he said, casting Bush as a friend of the rich and powerful. In Florida, Kerry said he stood ready to assume national command in a time of terrorism. "I believe we can bring the world back to the side of America. I believe that we can regain America's respect and influence in the world, and I believe we deserve a president who knows how to fight a more effective war on terror and make America safe," he said. In Iowa several hours later, he pledged a "fresh start to Iraq." "I know what we need to do and so do you. It is inexcusable that American troops have been sent to war without the armor they need, without the number of troops that they need, without the ability to have allies at their side, making America stronger. This president rushed to war without a plan to win the peace, and we need a commander in chief who knows how to get the job done." Bush campaigned across five states before heading home to vote on Election Day. At one point, the two men and their entourages nearly crossed paths, the president preparing to leave Milwaukee aboard Air Force One in early afternoon as Kerry's chartered jet was arriving. "There have been some tough times in Ohio," Bush conceded as he began his day in a state that has lost 232,000 jobs since he took office. But he said the state has 5,500 new jobs since last month, and added, "We are moving in the right direction." He said his rival belongs in the "flip-flop hall of fame" for saying he voted for and against legislation providing $87 billion for troops in Iraq, but for the most part, the criticism was muted. "The American president must lead with clarity and purpose. As presidents from Lincoln to Roosevelt to Reagan so clearly demonstrated, a president must not shift with the wind," Bush said. "A president has to make the tough decisions and stand by them." Vice President Dick Cheney was far more pointed. "The clearest, most important difference in this campaign is simple to state: President Bush understands the war on terror and has a strategy for winning it. John Kerry does not," he said in Hawaii, a traditionally Democratic state where Republicans hoped to spring an Election Day surprise. Kerry's running mate, Sen. John Edwards, was in Minnesota, Iowa, Ohio and Florida, forecasting victory for the Democrats at every opportunity. "Tomorrow, hope will arrive," he said in Iowa, the state where precinct caucuses provided the first returns in the race for the White House more than nine months ago. With the polls so tight, the biggest imponderable was turnout. Curtis Gans, director of the nonpartisan Committee for the Study of the American Electorate, estimated that as many as 117.5 million to 121 million voters would cast ballots, 58 percent to 60 percent of those eligible. Officials predict tight races in Kansas THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TOPEKA — Election officials across the state expect a large voter turnout for today's election, but forecasts for parts of Kansas include the possibility of rain — and even a little snow. The presidential race has increased voter interest, even though Kansas isn't a battleground state, officials said. Also, voters will decide local propositions and hotly contested legislative races. The state's most competitive congressional contest was in the 3rd Congressional District, where Democratic Rep. Dennis Moore faces Republican challenger Kris Kobach. Both campaigns expected a tight race. really strong voter interest." Election officials said higher advance voting was one indication of Kansans' interest in the election. In Johnson County, Election Commissioner Connie Schmidt estimated that 105,000 residents voted early, either by mail or at an election office before today. And Secretary of State Ron Thornburgh said: "All the indications are that we're seeing But the weather was a question in parts of the state, with a mix of rain and snow forecast for southwest Kansas and a chance of showers in south-central Kansas, according to the National Weather Service. In Grant County, Clerk Linda McHenry had predicted that 73 percent to 75 percent of the county's registered voters would turn out. She said yesterday that snow could decrease turnout, which was 67 percent four years ago. Still, she said "The ones who vote all the time will get out." Thornburgh said he doesn't expect weather to affect turnout significantly. He predicted that a record 1.29 million Kansans would cast ballots - 76 percent of those registered. Turnout four years ago was 67 percent. "Kansans are a hardy breed," he said. "A little bit of rain is not got going to keep us from voting." Some polls open as early as 6 a.m. and close as late as 8 p.m. In Douglas County, polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Olive oil reduces risk of heart disease THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON—Food containing olive oil can carry labels saying it may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, the government says, citing limited evidence from a dozen scientific studies about the benefits of monounsaturated fats. As long as people don't increase the number of calories they consume daily, the Food and Drug Administration confirmed a reduction in the risk of coronary heart disease when people replace foods high in saturated fat with the monounsaturated fat in olive oil. That means a change as simple as sautéing food in two tablespoons of olive oil instead of butter may be healthier for your heart. "Since CHD is the number one killer of both men and women in the United States, it is a public health priority to make sure that consumers have accurate and useful information on reducing their risk," Lester M. Crawford, acting FDA commissioner, said in a prepared statement. "It's good news for consumers," said Bob Bauer, president of the North American Olive Oil Association, which sought the qualified health claim on Aug. 28, 2003. "Olive oil is a healthy product to help them fight heart disease." Recent research has underscored the heart benefits from so-called Mediterranean diets high in unsaturated fats from vegetable oil, nuts and such fish as salmon and tuna. Mortality rates dropped by more than 50 percent among elderly Europeans who stuck to such diets and led healthy lifestyles, according to research published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in September. The North American Olive Oil Association included 88 publications to back its claim for the heart-healthy benefits of olive oil. The group wanted to make the claim for monounsaturated fats contained in just one tablespoon of olive oil per day. Olive oil and certain food containing olive oil can now indicate that "limited and not conclusive scientific evidence suggests that eating about two tablespoons (23 grams) of olive oil daily may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease due to the monounsaturated fat in olive oil," the FDA concluded. "I think FDA just took a more conservative view," Bauer said. Manufacturers waited for the FDA's precise wording before revising labels. "I expect, over time, most every container of olive oil will have this," he said. Already, American restaurants and consumers drive $450 million in olive oil sales per year. Supermarket sales in 2003 accounted for 132 million pounds of olive oil, up by nearly one-third over the past six years. According to the American Heart Association, coronary heart disease caused 502,189 deaths — or one in five deaths — in 2001, the most current statistic available. Another 13.2 million Americans that year survived the heart attacks, chest pains and other ailments caused by coronary heart disease. Along with lowering cholesterol, cutting out cigarettes and exercising, the group says Americans can boost heart health by eating foods low in saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium. The FDA discounted most of the submitted studies because the methodology made it difficult to tease out the effect of the monounsaturated fats in olive oil. Of a dozen studies that survived the cut, four were the most persuasive. Thirty-three healthy young American men ate diets high in saturated fats from butter or cocoa butter, olive oil's monounsaturated fats or polyunsaturated fats from soybean oil. The soybean and olive oil groups significantly lowered total and bad LDL cholesterol. In another trial involving 21 middle-aged Spanish women, those with diets in which olive oil replaced 8 percent of total daily calories from saturated fats lowered their total and bad cholesterol while significantly boosting good HDL cholesterol. Forty-one young Spanish men lowered total and bad LDL cholesterol with an olive oil diet. Levels of good cholesterol did not drop in the olive oil group, as they did for youthful peers who replaced calories from saturated fats with carbohydrates. And 22 healthy, middle-aged Spanish men with slightly elevated cholesterol counts were put on a four-week diet high in saturated fat. Those who switched to a diets high in olive oil and those who replaced calories from saturated fats with carbohydrates lowered total and bad LDL cholesterol levels. 10% OFF TODAY GO KU TOUCH DOWN TUESDAY GO KU TOUCH DOWN TUESDAY Whether in-store or online, receive 5% off Tuesdays for each touchdown scored by KU the previous weekend.* Visit Jayhawks.com or call 864-4640 for more info. *Up to 30% off.

He was injured on Saturday's Iowa State game. BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealeng@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER . If bad news comes in threes, the third piece just hit the Kansas football team. Sophomore quarterback Adam Barmann will likely miss the last three games of the season with an undisclosed injury. Coach Mark Mangino said there was a possibility that Barmann could return later in the season, but the team doctor said it was unlikely. The football team has a policy to not disclose the specific nature of injuries, but Mangino did say that Barmann's injury would not require surgev. After rushing for four yards in the second quarter of the Iowa State game, Barmann was seen walking off the field visibly in pain. His right arm was hanging limp at his Kimberly Templeton, an orthopedic surgeon at KU Medical Center, said Barmann could have suffered any of several injuries. side. The two she identified as most likely were an injury to his acromioclavicular joint or a dislocated shoulder. Templeton said that the AC joint injury was more likely. Templeton said that this injury was common, and was usually caused by someone putting their arm out to brace themselves during a fall. "It's a joint between the end of the collarbone and the shoulder blade," Templeton said. "It's hard to untrain someone from doing that," she said. "It's pretty much impossible." A significant aspect of an AC injury is that it often looks worse initially than it is. Injury to the muscles and ligaments in the AC joint cause the arm to go limp. With time, the muscles recover and some use is possible. Recovery from the injury often depends on its severity. "It all depends on how many ligaments around the joint are injured," Templeton said. Templeton said that a dislocation was far less likely because of the procedure which is necessary to relocate the arm. "It's usually done in an emergency room with sedation and lots of people pulling," Templeton said. Barmann, on the other hand, was seen rotating his arm on the sideline throughout the game. Last season, Kansas suffered another late-season injury to its starting quarterback. Bill Whittimore. Whittimore went down on a third down scramble against Kansas State on Oct. 25, 2003.

SEE BARMANN ON PAGE 6B BY ERIC SORRENTINO esorrentino@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRITER Freshman golfer Annie Giangrosso knew she wanted to attend the University of Kansas when she took a campus visit to Kansas State University. "I went to the KU vs. K-State football game, but all I could think about is how I wanted KU to cream them," Giangrosso said. Giangrosso decided to attend Kansas because she had had an allegiance to the University since her childhood, when she lived in Overland Park and played golf for St. Thomas Aquinas High School. When Megan Menzel, former Kansas women's golf coach, recruited Giangrosso to play last year, she could not pass up the opportunity. Menzel, however, resigned from her coaching position last summer because of a desire to spend more time with her family. Menzel's abrupt departure did nothing to dampen the enthusiasm of Giangrosso playing golf at Kansas. Erin O'Neil stepped in as Kansas' coach this fall. O'Neil was the assistant women's golf coach at Auburn last year. Despite the early staff changes leading into the fall, Giangrosso said she could not be any happier with her team and O'Neil. "I think she's very motivated to win, and the team needs that," Giangrosso said. "She told us she wouldn't be here if she didn't think our team was going somewhere." Giangrosso proved that she belonged in the starting lineup after five-qualifying rounds at Alvamar Country Club. Giangrosso said that at the beginning of the year, O'Neil did not have a projected start lineup; she went solely off the qualifying rounds. Five out of the 11 Kansas golfers compete in the starting lineup each tournament. It only took one tournament before O'Neil made the freshman Giangrosso one of the team's starters. Giangrosso struggled in the Jeannine McHaney Invitational in Lubbock, Texas, the second tournament of the fall. She finished in a tie for 89th. It was probably not what she expected from herself, but she was learning. Giangrosso had competed her first tournament as a collegiate athlete and was picking up on the winning attitude that O'Neil instilled. "Just being out there and representing KU was such an honor and achievement," Giangrosso said. "You get that adrenaline rush that pushes you and that's what has helped me along." Two weeks later, at Alvamar Country Club, the Jayhawks hosted the Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational. Playing at her home course in the final tournament of the semester gave Giangrosso an ideal opportunity to make an immediate impact before the spring season. "The more times you play the course, the more you get used to it." Giangrosso said. "The night before, I went through each hole." Giangrosso opened with 77 and then came back and fired 76 in rainy conditions. Individually, her final round of 83 put her in a tie for fifth place with junior teammate Tiffany Woods. Sophomore Amanda Costner finished ninth. The three top 10 finishes enabled the Jayhawks to win the tournament. Of course, coaching is also important, and Giangrosso said Kansas had one of the best coaches around in O'Neil. O'Neil also had praise for Giangrosso. "I wanted to represent the University of Kansas well, especially in our home tournament," Giangrosso said. "You have to have confidence in yourself and your teammates." "Annie has done a great job of adjusting to college in general on and off the course," O'Neil said.

KU to host intramural hoops tourney Washington State University March 4-5 2005 NIRSA Endorsed Regional & National Basketball Championships University of Iowa February 25-27 University of Kansas March 18-20 National Championships April 13-17 University of Arizona March 28-27 Georgia Tech University of Houston March 11-13 Mississippi State University March 11-13 NIRSA BY JESSICA FERGEN jfergen@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITTER The Rock Chalk Classic Tournament will take place the first weekend of spring break, March 18-20, in the Student Fitness Recreation Center. The National Intramural Recreational Sports Association has selected the University of Kansas to host one of eight official regional intramural basketball tournaments. "We applied back in September, but it was really an idea that I considered last spring," said Kurt Schooley, intramural sports director. "I just thought that we had a great facility to host one, and that the University of Kansas would be a great draw for teams in the --region." Schooley estimates that up to 36 teams will register for the three-day event. "We hope that they get some teams to travel in there and that it's a quality event," Valerie McCutehan, assistant director of national sports programs for NIRSA, said. "It's a good, central location, and they have great staff." The tournament will start with pool play on Friday night, March 18. On Saturday afternoon, the top two teams from each pool will advance to single elimination playoffs. The playoffs will run through Sunday afternoon, when the top teams will meet in the championship. SEE TOURAMENT ON FACE GB. JACK WEINSTEIN jweinstein@kansan.com 'Hawks flail at game end It may be easy to point to the defense breaking down, but the blame can't be placed squarely on its shoulders. This defense has outplayed its opponent in every single game this season, excluding Oklahoma. Here's the problem with Kansas football: The Jayhawks are a one-dimensional, one-half team. The reason Kansas is not as effective at the end of the game is directly because it spends far too much time on the field as a direct result of the ineptitude of the offense. In four of Kansas five losses, it has been outscored in the second half 47-24, again excluding 27 points by Oklahoma. Keep in mind the team was trailing at the half in only two of the five contests, one against Oklahoma, and again, I'm not even counting that game. With the exception of the last two games, the Jayhawks have led or been tied with its opponent at halftime. In those six games, the 'Hawks were in a position to win every one of them. They won three. In the three losses — at Northwestern, Nebraska and against Texas Tech — Kansas managed to lose on late fourth quarter drives. If every one of Kansas' games were over after the first half, the team would be 6-2. Excluding Saturday's debacle at Iowa State, the only game the Jayhawks should have lost would have been at Oklahoma, a game they had no prayer and no business winning. The Kansas offense has averaged 23.4 points per game this season, ninth in the Big 12 Conference. Without the benefit of the 63 points put up against Toledo, the offensive output would be a mere 17.7 points per game or last in the conference. Leaving Ames, Iowa, at 7-1, and coasting into the bowl season is exactly where this team should be. Instead the 'Hawks are 3-5. The defense has given up an average of 20.5 points per game, sixth in the Conference and a half-point from being the fourth best defense, considering points, in the Conference. The defense has kept Kansas in all of its games this season. The offense has not done its part to contribute, especially late in games. The team's opportunities to make the postseason this year are remote, to say the least. SEE DEFENSE ON PAGE 6B 6 --- 2B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN INSIDE SPORTS TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2. 2004 FOOTBALL Missouri coach says Nash to start again this weekend COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri coach Gary Pinkel yesterday reinstated tailback Damien Nash, ending a one-game suspension apparently spurred by negative comments Nash made about the team's play-calling. Pinkel did not say if Nash, a junior who leads the team with 610 yards rushing and eight touchdowns, would be in the starting lineup Saturday when the Tigers (4-4, 2-3 Big 12) host Kansas State (3-5, 1-4). "He'll play," Pinkel said during the Big 12 Conference's weekly media teleconference. "How much? We'll make the decision on Thursday." Pinkel suspended Nash indefinitely two days after Missouri's 20-17 loss to Oklahoma State on Oct. 23. After that game, Kansas City Star columnist Jason Whitlock quoted Nas as being critical of the play-calling in a game in which the Tigers blew a 17-0 lead and were shut out in the second half. got worse Saturday at Nebraska. The Tigers could muster only 51 yards on 35 rushing attempts in a 24-3 loss, Missouri's third straight. Starter Marcus Woods gained 22 yards on seven carries. Freshman Tony Temple, playing for the first time, had 13 yards on six carries and left the game with an Achilles' tendon injury early in the fourth quarter. Pinkel would not discuss Temple's status. - The Associated Press Singh's' rags-to-richest' story brings attention to PGA JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The mayor wanted a picture with him. The owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars wanted a word with him. Civic leaders simply wanted to shake his hand. GOLF Vijay Singh was the star attraction yesterday at a luncheon where the PGA Tour announced $2.25 million in charitable giving from The Players Championship. It was another example of just how far the 41-year-old Fijian has come. He stood before the lunch crowd in a downtown hotel as the No. 1 player in the world and the first $10 million man in golf, a rags-to-richest story unlike any other on the PGA Tour. He was a club pro in Borneo in 1985, making minimum wage plus $10 a lesson and practicing in his free time. He was a bouncer in Scotland two years later, stashing away money to play in a two-bit tournament in Africa, the first small step toward a European tour card, then a PGA Tour card. The crowd listened intently when Singh was asked what he thought about this week's Tour Championship, where he can join Sam Snead, Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson as the only players to win 10 times in one year. "I'm really thinking of taking this week off," Singh said as the room erupted in laughter, they knew better. S. Mishra, daughter, they knew better: Despite reaching No. 1 in the world two months earlier, Singh continued to work out in the gym and on the range, sometimes before and after his round. Small wonder that he captured the Chrysler Championship at Innisbrook Sunday, his ninth victory of the year. It was his fourth PGA Tour victory in his last five starts. The other time he finished second. Going for it The season finale is East Lake in Atlanta, where he won two years ago.

Chiefs back in division race THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The last two weeks, Trent Green, Priest Holmes, Tony Gonzalez and an overpowering offensive line have helped Kansas City amass 1,030 yards and 101 points. The Chiefs swamped two teams with winning records, Atlanta and Indianapolis. At one point, the Chiefs were 1-4. Now they are 3-4 and headed for what would appear to be winnable road games against Tampa Bay and New Orleans before coming back home for a Monday night game against New KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The hottest offense in the NFL has pulled the Kansas City Chiefs away from the brink and propelled them right back into the AFC West race. "It's very huge for us," said Green, who passed for 389 yards and three touchdowns against the Colts. "Right now we not even at 500, so even though we've gotten two big wins in a England. Also helping are the Denver Broncos, who have lost two in a row and dropped into a first-place tie in the AFC West with San Diego at 5-3. The Chiefs are only 1.5 games behind and have home games left against the Chargers and what could be a key Dec. 19 date with the Broncos. Kansas City even got a taste of revenge Sunday with a 45-35 victory against Indianapolis, the team that knocked the Chiefs out of last year's playoffs. row that we feel really good about, we have to continue to get back to .500 and that all starts (this) week." "Obviously, the offense played very, very well," Vermail said yesterday. "When you do what they've done two weeks in a row you have to give a lot of credit to (offensive coordinator) Al Saunders and the coaching staff. They've done a great job. Players have been, for the most part, executing very well against some pretty good football teams." Coach Dick Vermeil said it is hard to imagine an offense being much sharper. Since 1970, only one NFL team has scored more than 101 points in consecutive games: the 2000 St. Louis Rams with 102. The Associated Press Miami loss alters BCS poll THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Auburn moved into third place in the Bowl Championship Series yesterday while Southern California and Oklahoma held firmly to the top two spots. The Tigers had been in fourth place in the first two BCS standings,but they took advantage of Miami's upset loss on Saturday to creep closer to the front-runners. California moved up four spots to fourth, and was followed by Wisconsin and Utah. Miami and Florida State, which was also upset on the road Saturday, fell out of the BCS top five for the first time this season. The top two teams in the BCS standings after the regular season will meet in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 4. The Sooners, No. 2 in both polls all season, have a grade of .9648. Auburn's grade is .9238, placing third in each poll and the computer rankings. USC, which has been in first place since the initial BCS standings three weeks ago, has a grade of .9895. The Trojans are No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25 and the ESPN/USA Today coaches poll. They are also tied with Oklahoma for the best computer ranking this week. The AP media poll and coaches poll each count for one-third of a team's BCS grade. Total points received in the polls are taken into account. A compilation of six computer rankings make up the other third of a grade, with the highest and lowest computer rankings for each team thrown out. a victory in the Southeastern Conference championship game, the Tigers might need a loss by either USC or Oklahoma to reach the Orange Bowl. Auburn's BCS ranking is the highest in school history, but the Tigers may not have their national title hopes in their own hands. Even if they finish the season unbeaten with There are six unbeaten teams in Division I-A — USC, Oklahoma, Auburn, Wisconsin, Utah and Boise State. A difficult remaining schedule could work in Auburn's favor, if the Tigers can survive it. They're off this week before playing Georgia (ninth in the BCS) at home on Nov. 13; at Alabama on the No. 20; and the SEC title game against either Georgia or Tennessee (eighth in the BCS) on Dec. 4. A separate strength of schedule component was removed from the BCS standings this season, but the computer rankings still take schedule strength into account, as do most poll voters.

Oklahoma State is going from a 38-35 loss at home to No.2 Oklahoma to a road game at No.6 Texas, Texas A&M is going from a 35-34 overtime defeat at Baylor to a home game against the Sooners. Miles can talk about how the Cowboys were good, but not good enough to defeat a great team. Franchione could tell the Aggies that if they play again like they did last week then they could get wiped out 77-0 like Oklahoma did to them last year. Whatever Franchione has been saying this season, it's worked pretty well. The No. 22 Aggies recovered from an opening loss at No.7 Utah to win six straight before their stunning collapse in Waco. Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops may be challenged to get his players to fear a team they defeated by 11 touchdowns last season and that's coming off a loss to Baylor. He could always remind the Sooners that they lost to the Aggies in College Station two years ago. If the Big 12 North seems left out of all this big-game talk, there's a good reason: The division champion may not even be bowl eligible. Nebraska has the only winning record, so a team could make the title game at 6-5. The week's big game in the North is Nebraska and Iowa State. The Cyclones and Missouri Tigers are 2-3 in league action, making them tied for second. Colorado and Kansas State, the North champion the last four years, are 1-4, as is Kansas.

We were in Chicago, and my friend had never visited me at school. He chose his alma mater, Syracuse, as his team, so of course I followed suit by picking Kansas. The game was set at Memorial Stadium. At the beginning of each contest, the "camera" pans around for a 360-degree view of the field. In the background was the famous hill, topped by the Campanile. My friend's reaction was classic. "Whoa, that looks sweet as hell," he said. "If I went to a game, I'd just chill up on the hill and drink." The setting at Memorial Stadium, with the open end and the rolling hill, makes it one of the nation's most scenic college football atmospheres. But if rumors and speculation of late turn out to be true, that beautiful view could be no more. An article in Thursday's The Topeka Capital-Journal quoted coach Mark Mangino after Wednesday's practice saying, "We're pretty close on some really good news." That news involves a brand new football facility constructed at the foot of the Campanile hill, or otherwise known as the open end of. Memorial Stadium. It will look reminiscent of what is in place at Colorado and Oklahoma State. The facility would include meeting rooms, training rooms and a weight room. Later in the article, Mangino spoke of the "plights" of how things are now. The Jayhawks have been practicing lately at Memorial Stadium because of the cruddy condition of their practice fields behind Hoglund Ballpark. They also have their meetings before practice at Anschutz Pavilion. "It's a little bit of a pain in the butt to come (to the stadium), and out of the way," Mangino told the Capital-journal. "But the facility here is great because we've got lights, and there's no divots, no ruts." Speculation has it that Lew Perkins wants the entire estimated cost of $25 million to be donated. One donor who is being rumored is the Tennessee Titans owner Bud Adams, a Kansas graduate and former Jayhawk football player. But what is so wrong with the way things are right now? Is it really that much of a hassle to take the short bus ride across campus to Memorial Stadium? Would it really be all that difficult just to install lights and new sod at the current practice fields? Does just the moderate success KU has seen in football during the past two years really warrant a massive overhaul such as this? But the biggest beef with this project has absolutely nothing to No, no and no. do with football. True, nothing is final yet, but the athletics department is forgetting about a tradition at Kansas that is 50 times bigger than football. Now this donation would be a great thing if it really does come through, but can't it be built over by where the current practice facilities already are? Graduation. A facility by the foot of the hill would ruin something that affects almost every Kansas student, not just 100 or so football players — the graduation "Walk down the Hill." Just imagine what a mess it would be to have the graduation ceremony around a big, ugly construction site, or better yet, around a big, obstructive building. Don't get me wrong, I love the fact that Lew Perkins has the power to lobby donors for project such as these, but Mr. Perkins, someone who is not even a KU graduate, needs to choose the times when he puts athletics in front of established University traditions.

Steelers, Eagles evoke gridiron's days of yore THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PITTSBURGH — He wasn't yet born the last time the Pittsburgh Steelers won the Super Bowl. That isn't preventing rookie quarterback Ben Roethlisberger from bringing back the memories of the greatest times — and the greatest teams — in franchise history. In a fitting throwback to the days when the Steelers won four Super Bowls in six seasons, Roethlisberger is off to the best start by an NFL rookie quarterback since Pittsburgh's Mike Kruczek was 6-0 in 1976. The Steelers are 6-1 after ending New England's 21-game winning streak with a dominating 34-20 victory Sunday in which Roethlisberger improved to 5-0 as a starter. "Everybody's antennas across the country are starting to go up a little bit," wide receiver Plaxico Burress said, referring to the Steelers' new-found notoriety. That's largely because of a 22-year-old quarterback who plays like he's much, much older. With former Eagles running back Duce Staley coming off his fourth 100-yard game, it all adds up to arguably the biggest Eagles-Steelers game since 1947. Wide receiver Hines Ward doesn't think the Steelers will have any problem matching the intensity they showed against the Patriots when they meet the Eagles. "We've got a great running game, two dominant wide receivers and a young, confident, cocky quarterback back there playing his heart out," Ward said. "We're a hard team to beat." Cowher also doesn't think the Steelers will become distracted as they try to return to the playoffs after missing them last season and four of their previous six seasons. "We aren't going to squander what we have created for ourselves," he said. "We'll be ready to go, trust me." Sophomore Shelby Noonan leads from the diving board BY NORA KELLM nkellam@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITHER Stepping onto the diving board for the first time her freshman year of high school, Shelby Noonan never imagined what diving had in store for her. After winning state all four years of high school, Noonan came to Kansas on a diving scholarship last year. Placing third in the Big 12 Conference last year, the Edmond, Okla., sophomore has been a leader on the Kansas swimming and diving team since she arrived in Lawrence. Noonan was the only Kansas diver to make it to Conference Championships and has bigger ambitions for this year. A "This year I really want to make zones NOONAN again. I want to place higher and make it to nationals — which is a pretty big goal," said Noonan. Noonan's mom and biggest fan, Cierra Cathcart, said Noonan had worked hard to get where she was. "She has loved the sport for years and continues to build on the quality of her of her dives as she improves her performance. Coaches have told me that she has such determination to do it right," Cathcart said. This season is quickly moving in the right direction for Noonan. She placed second in the one- and three-meter events in Kansas' season opener against Texas. Competing against Texas A&M, Noonan led the Jayhawks as she finished third in the three-meter event and fourth in the one-meter event. Noonan is an asset for Kansas, not only for her diving performance, but the positive energy she brings to the team. "Shelby is an amazing diver, but most importantly, such a leader, even though she is only a sophomore," teammate Lisa Tilson said. Noonan is the youngest of three girls and said her sisters were an important part of her life. Leslie is the oldest and is serving in the military in Iraq. "Through weekly e-mails, I keep her updated, but it is really hard knowing she is in Iraq," Noonan said. "But the girls on my team have given me a family away from home." week with the team makes it hard for Noonan to be home-sick. But when she does, she has her team. "The sophomore class is so close, they support me in everything I do." Noonan said. Noonan does not have a favorite dive but prefers the springboard to the platform. "KU doesn't have a regulation platform. That was one of the many attractions of KU for me," said Noonan. The Kansas diving team trains on regulation platforms only when it has the opportunity at away meets. "We try and utilize the other schools" facilitates when we can," Noonan said. "It is a challenge, but we get by." Noonan is a double major in special education and psychology. Her love for children draws her to local day care centers where she likes to spend some of her free time, she said. One day Noonan said she hoped to work at a children's hospital. Noonan is looking forward to competing. "Our freshmen are really strong this year. We are working hard and ready for a great rest of the year," Noonan said. - Edited by Johanna M Maska IM HAINES ANDERSON CHANDLER LECTURE SERIES THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS SCHOOL OF BUSINESS PRESENTS AN EVENING WITH JIM HAINES CEO.WESTAR ENERGY "CORPORATE GOVERNANCE, BUSINESS ETHICS AND INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY" Business UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS SCHOOL OF BUSINESS MONDAY, NOVEMBER 8TH 7:30 P.M.

"We're poised to become one of the bigger sport clubs at KU, and we're hoping to get some attention from students," said Ryan Wallace, Overland Park senior. "We're playing against some of the best teams in the nation." As the team traveled to Texas A&M during Halloween weekend, team members were excited about the possibilities and expectations they faced this year. Fifteen collegiate teams competed in Texas A&M's annual fall tournament. Kansas, the only out-of-state team, placed second in its bracket. "This is one of the biggest fall tournaments in the country" Wallace said. "After this week-end, it's really obvious that we're above the level we were at last year, but we still need some work to get to the level we need to play at this spring. We've got a lot of young talent to work with." In only its fourth year as a club at Kansas, the lacrosse team made a step up this year into Division A of the U.S. Lacrosse Intercollegiate Associates Men's Division. This means that Kansas plays among top tier club lacrosse teams in the nation. "This year marks a big turning point for our program," Wallace said. "Along with our best incoming freshman class ever, we were excited for the opportunity to show ourselves at the Division-A level as a serious program. KU has been receiving national attention as a young up- and coming program ever since our start in the fall of 2001." Led by nine seniors and backed by a large freshman class, the team is currently comprised of more than 45 members. Competition in its conference includes teams such as Kansas State, Missouri, Iowa State and Illinois. "We're playing a lot of good teams and the competition's going be a lot tougher," said Kent Domas, San Antonio junior. "It's going to allow our team to get a lot better because we're going to have to step up our level of play." Last year, in Division B, the Jayhawks were 8-2 during the regular season and were seeded fifth in conference playoffs. They were ranked as high as No. 1 nationally at mid-season by laxpower.com. This season, the lacrosse team has already beaten rival Kansas State for the second time in a row. On Oct 1, the Jayhawks were victorious in Manhattan, beating the Wildcats 8-3 in the annual fall tournament. In addition, they placed third overall in the tournament. "That was a blast because it's a big rivalry game," said Gabe Van Pelt, Lakeville, Minn., senior. "You get to play in the old stadium and play in front of all the fans. You get really pumped up and you want to shut them up because the guys are really cocky over there. It's a good time." The men will play most of their conference matches in the spring semester. The team is trying to schedule its five home games in Memorial Stadium in order to draw lots of cheering Jayhawk fans. "I think it would be really awesome to play in the stadium because I think it'll get people to notice what lacrosse is and get people interested so more and more people will come out and watch our games," Domas said. - Edited by Steve Vockrodt GOLFER: O'Neil said the team was successful this fall season CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Both individuals have had instant impact in their first year at Kansas. O'Neil said she thought the team had a very successful fall season. She also said she was proud of Giangrosso's work ethic and her preparation before each tournament. Giangrosso said she intended to stay in shape and get comfortable with her swinging and putting in Anschutz Sports Pavilion this winter, in preparation for the spring season. In the offseason, O'Neill said that she plans to build on Giangrosso's fall success. The Jayhawks will look to Giangrosso in the spring season to complement the play of Kansas starters such as juniors Tiffany Woods and Chelsey Pryor, and sophomores Amanda Costner and Jill Wollmbe.

Maska TOURNAMENT: Intramural tourney to become Kansas tradition CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B "We hope to have the championship in Allen Fieldhouse if everything works out," Schooley said. The teams playing in the championship will receive T-shirts, and the winning teams will receive trophies and have their entrance fees to the national tournament paid. Georgia Tech will host the national tournament April 15-17. In addition, the top officials from each regional tournament will get to go to nationals. "I think it's always a good incentive, a neat draw for students to want to go to other university campuses and represent KU in a positive way," said Jason Krone, associate director for programs. "It definitely raises the competitive level, and you have those natural rivalries that are out there, like the Big 12, and you want to beat those teams." If everything goes well, Schooloy wants to add another tradition to the list at Kansas. "This is hopefully a first annual tournament," Schoololey said. "That's the goal." Registration is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Forms and fees for registration have not yet been set, but Schooloy hopes to begin registration at the start of the spring semester.

Edited by Steve Vockrodt DEFENSE: Kansas unlikely to win later when it can't win now CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Last week, Kansas coach Mark Mangino said that this team would be playing a fourgame season for the rest of the year, referring to the team's final games. He mentioned that three victories would give the team six, making it eligible for a bowl berth. With two home games remaining against Colorado and nationally ranked Texas, and a road contest at Missouri, it's likely that the last Kansas victory was recorded three weeks ago with the victory over Kansas State. It was possible, though doubtful, that after a win at Iowa State, Kansas may have been able to ride the momentum to two more victories, possibly by beating Colorado and pulling an upset at Missouri. That would have been an extremely difficult task, but after the loss in Ames, the 'Hawks are forced to win their remaining three games to qualify for a bowl. Not to break any hearts out there, but Kansas' opportunity to go to their first ever back-to-back bowls died when they started losing winnie games back in September. If this football team can make me eat my words, great, but that won't happen. It isn't realistic to expect them to run the table for the rest of the year. Weinstein is an Overland Park senior in English. BARMANN: Swanson to take starting position, Luke backs up CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B In Barmann's absence, Mangino said junior Jason Swanson would start. While Whittemore's injury was never fully disclosed, it was widely believed to be caused by an injury to his collarbone. Mangino said that Whittemore would miss the rest of the season, but he returned for the final two games. Swanson was a key to Kansas' 31-28 victory over Kansas State. "I'm always ready if they need "We have to do a good job of rallying around Jason Swanson now." Mangino said. After the game on Saturday, Swanson said that it wasn't a total surprise to be called into the game. "He has quick feet. He's not necessarily a burner, but he has quick feet," Mangino said. Mangino said Swanson's strengths were in his accuracy and his ability to throw "good touch passes." Another strength is his speed. "We have to do a good job of rallying around Jason Swanson now." Mark Mangino Kansas football coach With the loss of Barmann, Swanson will be backed up by junior Brian Luke as well as senior John Nielsen. me," he said. "I didn't feel like they surprised me." Nielsen played briefly following the injury to Bill Whittemore, at Kansas State, last season. Another quarterback on the roster is freshman Marcus Herford. Herford, however, has taken a redshirt this season, and Mangino has all but ruled out using him this year.

The ladies examined ballots yesterday night at the Douglas County Courthouse. Zech Strauss/KANSAN KANSAN STAFF REPORT A victory for President George W. Bush looked more likely last night as both Fox News and NBC News declared victory for the President in Ohio, putting his projected electoral vote tally at 269 vote — ever so close to the 270 electoral votes necessary to secure the White House. CNN and The Associated Press did not call a Bush victory in Ohio, saying that the margin in Ohio was too close to call. The news outlets cited provisional ballots in the Buckeye state. Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) meanwhile, picked up 4 electoral votes in New Hampshire, a state President Bush carried last year. Kerry also won Pennsylvania — a key battleground state — but all projections seemed to go through Ohio, particularly as President Bush seems to have carried Florida, and its 27 electoral votes, comfortably. If President Bush carries Ohio, he will likely win four more years in office. If Sen. Kerry wins the state, which seemed unlikely last night, things become more complicated. Students reacted to a contentious and close election by heading to bars, convening in dorm lobbies and watching on a big screen television at the Kansas Union, among other places. At Buffalo Wild Wings, 1012 Massachusetts St., a heated debate erupted. The Democrats in the kitchen picked on the Republican waitress. "People have called me a hypocrite. said that I have no beliefs at all if I agree with Bush," said Janelle Quinlan, Coppell, Texas senior, "I've met him personally and I agree with his beliefs." The debates between the staff members were rivaled only by the beliefs of those watching the results on the restaurants big-screen televisions. "It's been a little heated," said Emily Zuzich, Lawrence resident and waitress.

Hill brought her class to the polling site yesterday to observe the electoral process. Voting problems arise THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Machines malfunctioned, tempers flared and edgy voters often waited hours yesterday to pick a president in a contentious race watched by thousands of monitors who expected the worst. By the close of East Coast polls, only scattered local snafu had been reported in an election turnout that was shaping up to be the heaviest in years. "So far, it's no big, but lots of littles," said Doug Chapin, director of the Election Reform Information Project, a nonpartisan research group. "We know of no major meltdowns anywhere along the lines some people were worried about." About 50 percent of all voters said they were certain ballots in their state would be accurately counted, according to a national Associated Press exit poll conducted by Edison Media Research and Mitofsky International. Hyper-vigilance appeared to be the order of the day, which in some states prompted poll closures and unfounded complaints. In New Jersey, a suspicious substance later determined to be spilled salt prompted the two-hour closure of a Mount Laurel precinct. In Pennsylvania, zealous GOP election monitors complained that some Philadelphia voting machines already had thousands of recorded votes when the polls opened at 7 a.m. explained that voting machines registered every vote ever cast on them and that did not constitute evidence of fraud. Local election officials quickly In Colorado, Republican Party officials said a lawyer for the Democrats showed up at an Eagle County precinct with a list of registered GOP voters, planning to challenge them all. Democrats acknowledged it was true. In other closely contested states — including Iowa and Michigan — the liberal group MoveOn.org was accused of disturbing local precincts. In Ohio, a woman filed a lawsuit on behalf of voters who didn't receive absentee ballots on time, asking they be allowed to cast provisional ballots. Later, a Toledo federal judge granted her request. Also in Michigan, the NAACP filed a Justice Department complaint, saying it received 55 complaints that GOP poll watchers were harassing voters in Detroit. New touch-screen voting machines, criticized by computer scientists and several elections officials as susceptible to hacking and malfunction, were used Tuesday in 29 states and the District of Columbia. Only Nevada has mandated the machines produce paper receipts, which could make recounts more reliable. In Florida, which gave the 2000 election to George W. Bush on the basis of 537 votes, 10 touch-screen voting machines failed at various precincts in Broward County. Nearly half the state's voters were using the ATM-like machines. a lawsuit seeking at least $15,000 in damages, claiming they were punched, pushed, shoved and spat on when they showed up at a Halloween rally for Democratic candidate John Kerry, dressed as giant flip-flops. In a separate lawsuit, the ACLU asked that absentee ballots mailed within the United States be subject to the same deadline, Nov. 12., as overseas ballots. Provisional ballots, new this election, also prompted disaster fears because they could delay any recount efforts. Any voter whose name does not appear on precinct rolls is entitled to cast a provisional ballot. Elections officials must individually certify them as being cast by registered voters before they can be counted. In Florida, two Bush supporters filed A Kerry campaign lawyer said some Pennsylvania voters were prevented from voting when at least a dozen Allegheny County precincts ran out of provisional ballots. More ballots were on their way, and voters were encouraged to return later in the day.A similar complaint surfaced in New Mexico. States have differing and confusing rules about deadlines for such ballots. Some states, for example, allow absentee votes to be counted days after the election, provided they are postmarked by Nov. 2. Others mandate that mailed ballots received after Election Day do not count. And in more than a dozen states, election officials missed the recommended deadline for mailing absentee ballots overseas, meaning soldiers risking their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan might not get them in time to vote. ON THE RECORD A 21-year-old KU student reported to Lawrence police that someone had stolen her blue and yellow Elle purse from her car sometime Saturday night in the 2500 block of Winterbrook Drive. Her loss and cost of damages are estimated at about $2,200. Lawrence police arrested a 19-year-old KU student about 3 a.m. Saturday morning in the 800 block of Tennessee Street. He was charged with operating under the influence of alcohol, driving with an open container and minor in possession.

NATION Defense lawyer questions motives in Peterson murder REDWOOD CITY, Calif. — Scott Peterson's lawyer pleaded with the jury yesterday not to convict his client of murder just because prosecutors made him look like a "jerk and a liar." "You're not supposed to just decide this case on whether or not you like Scott Peterson," he said. Geragos accused authorities of waffling on their theory of the crime. He said they first claimed an affair was his motive for murder, then raised financial issues and pointed to Peterson's desire to be free from marriage. The jurors heard the prosecution's closing argument Monday and were expected to begin deliberations as early as today. Prosecutors claim Peterson strangled or smothered his wife on Dec. 23 or 24, 2002.

Saffold discussed politics yesterday afternoon, election day, with other riders as the bus traveled across Lawrence. By AMANDA O'TOLE aotole@kansan.com KANSAN STAT WRITE The city bus that wove through campus on election day had a barbershop atmosphere as riders discussed sports, weather and — of course — politics. Sean Saffold, Cleveland graduate student, is a regular on the T. The bus driver, Tyler French, knows him by name and by party affiliation. "You vote yet?" French asked. "You know I did," Saffold, who voted at Plymouth Church, said. "We'll be celebrating tonight." Saffold boarded the bus and headed toward a seat near the back. The conversation between the two men, both wearing "I Voted Today" stickers, continued over the hum of the bus and the murmur of the radio. Saffold said he would be unhappy if the Democrats lost the election. French said he agreed. "It's an opportunity for change," Saffold said. "It's one time we can do something." He was disappointed that he couldn't send his vote back to Cleveland — votes in Ohio, a swing state, were crucial in last night's election. He said it was important that people voted, regardless of their party affiliation, even though Kansas had traditionally been a Republican state. He said everyone should be upset that the Supreme Court was left to decide the presidential election in 2000. "As a citizen, it scares me," he said. He said Supreme Court justice selection, dishonesty in the 2000 election and education were among the reasons he voted for Sen. John Kerry. His eyes widened with excitement behind his clip-on sunglasses as he spoke about voter turnout. An avid reader of five daily newspapers, Saffold understood the topics he was dis Safford talked across the aisle with Kelly Villanueva, Junction City senior. cussing. Saffold covered his ears and shook his head as she said this She got on the bus at Ninth and Massachusetts streets to ride to Allen Fieldhouse and cast her vote. But Villanueva was still unsure of who she would vote for at 1:30 yesterday afternoon. "Well, I'm pretty sure I know who it will be," Villanuea said. "I'm just not sure yet." Saffold said it would take a few days for things to get back to normal. The election brought the topic of politics everywhere, including the T. He'll watch election coverage with the rest of Lawrence, drink in hand, he said. He wasn't sure when the election results would be announced or who the victor would be, but chances are, Saffold will have something to say about it today on the T. Students experience first-time voting By Ross Fitch fritch@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER — Edited by Paige Worthy University of Kansas students and Lawrence residents flocked to Allen Fieldhouse, but basketball was not on their minds. They went to vote. At the fieldhouse, one of the many polling places throughout Lawrence, many students were voting for the first time. "I hesitated before filling in the circles," said Katie Middendorf, Olathe freshman. "This isn't like taking a test. It really counts." Middendorf and her boyfriend, Elijah Hubbard, Olathe freshman, even made plans to vote together. The couple said they met each other after their 8:30 classes and walked down to the fieldhouse. "It was good I had someone else to share it with," Middendorf said. Jason Baker also voted for the first time yesterday. "I felt like I had the power to say who stays and goes," the Houston freshman said. For one student, faith brought him to the polls. "God put it in my heart to vote today," he said. It's a Christian responsibility to have a voice in politics, said Chris Carter, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore. Lawrence High School poll workers also saw their share of first-time voters. Katherine Mann, Shawnee sophomore, said she was voting to state her opinion. "I felt like I wanted a voice, and to take a stand," Mann said. "I think this year is going to be down to the wire." Across Lawrence, voter turnout was high throughout the day. At the Lawrence Public Library, Betty Kennett saw the biggest crowds of her 20 years as an election poll worker. That is close to 23 percent of the 881 registered in the polling location's precinct. Close to 40 percent, or 344 After the polls at the library opened at 7 a.m., about 200 people voted in the first couple of hours, she said. "I've never seen this many people come out, especially this early in the morning." Kennett, Lawrence resident, said. people had voted by 2 p.m. Voting did not proceed without some hassles yesterday. Tosha Jansen-Conkey said there were only six people in front of her when she arrived at the fieldhouse, but it still took about 30 minutes to vote. "Four out of six did a POV, and that's insane," Jansen-Conkey, Lawrence senior, said. The use of provisional ballots was part of the cause. Overall, most students predicted a strong turnout and national impact from their fellow students. Some of the people were at the wrong polling site, which also made the lines slower, she said. "There will be a bigger 10 Zach Straus/KANSAN Voters at the St. Lawrence Catholic Center, 1631 Crescent Rd., cast their votes yesterday for local and national elections. turnout on campus than last election because everyone has an opinion," said Travis Dambach, Jackson, Mo., junior.

OPINION WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN EDITORIAL BOARD www.kansan.com Bipartisan politics means hope for a better America Bush lied about Iraq and Kerry didn't win those medals. Whatever you may believe, or whomever you think the better presidential candidate may be, none of that should matter after the election. Bush and Kerry, who have expressed opposite positions on the major issues, have participated in one of the most vicious presidential campaigns in U.S. history. However, the two presidential candidates have also expressed one common goal: hope for a better America. We need to clean our heads of every negative, partisan thought from this election, and think about the hope for a better country. Although the Bush and Kerry campaigns have viciously questioned the integrity and honesty of each other for the past year, they both have expressed hope for a happier, more peaceful America. America needs to return to a time when political parties worked together and not to tear each other down. People did not argue with each other about party-platforms and political identification. Rather, they united to tackle the issues that would create a better nation. After such a divisive election, we need to step aside from the partisanship and focus on the real issues that will, once again, bring hope to our country. Do not allow your personal political bias to blind yourself from the more important vision of America's future. Regardless of your feelings about the war in Iraq, you should support the troops who are fighting for our country and for their lives. We must continue to use our vote to support or oppose the issues, not the political party. Hope for America's future relies on openminded, bipartisan opinions.

ELECTION 04 LAWYERS Steve Sack/STAR TRIBUNE Polarization damages population POLITICAL PERSPECTIVE So it's over. All the ads, chalking, issue-spinning, party-line salivating, partisan bickering, talk of who has the better hair, values and plans to keep our country running. It can all be put away until next election. We can all hope that today we have a clear winner. There is a chance that we won't. But beneath the surface of this political season rests a larger, lingering issue that we all wear, but don't want to talk about. Kind of like underwear. The issue, polarization in this country. Of wealth. Of ideals. Of what tastes "American." POLITICAL PRESENTS 49 for Bush, 49 for not-Bush, and 1 for Nader. Families flying private jets to play Augusta National golf course on the weekends, and single mothers struggling to meet the many needs of living in a first-world society. How did it get this way, and what can be done to help bridge rancorous factions of "liberal wieners" and "right-wing nut jobs?" SEAN PAUZAUSKIE opinion@kansan.com Money trickling up into the top 20 percent of income tax payers during the past 50 years stands as a statistical fact. In basic economics everyone learns about the Lorenz curve, which displays the distribution of income as a function of population — i.e. who owns how much. In a perfect world, the Lorenz curve zips up in a linear fashion, with the bottom 20 percent of income taxpayers earning 20 percent of the wealth in this country, and so forth. But it ain't so. In fact, the curve sags now in an alarming and ominous distribution-of-wealth crescent, as if in America we have a Marxian owning class and hoards of soot-coated underlings, toiling to make the machine work. Some of you might wonder if the Lorenz curve means anything to your life. To be honest, I can't say that I think many KU students have dipped below the poverty line during the past four years. But I can say that I strongly disagree with some of the choices that the Bush administration has made during the past four years, perpetuating the polarization of wealth, and ultimately values. And I think you should, too. To protect wealth-polarizing tax cuts, George W. Bush kicked 2 million children out of their after-school program and took 88,000 police off the streets. Taken as a whole, during the past four years our president has simultaneously favored policies that polarize wealth in our country and in the world. I can't say what the outcome of these choices will ultimately produce, only that now we stand at a pivotal and potentially disastrous point in our fiscal and cultural history. Assault rifles trickle back onto the streets. Renewable sources of energy still sluggishly slum. Some pundits believe that children will be raised in increasingly polarized environments. David Brooks of The New York Times terms them "political ghettos." With all this thrown in our faces as the up-and-coming generation who will someday possess the power to change these things, a critical time for decision making in terms of how we will handle dealing with the opposing 50 percent of our fellow Americans also rests in the foreground. It is time that both sides start to give up pawns in hopes that the American game can continue at home and in the world at large. If not, the rubberbands of wealth and ideals will surely continue to stretch. Pauzauskie is a Topeka senior in English and cell biology. Living wage comes at cost of jobs Wouldn't it be nice if all jobs paid a living wage? It wouldn't. FRESH ARRAH A universal living wage would make whole classes of employees unemployable. Few employers are running philanthropies, and employers will lay off their least productive employees if forced to pay them more than they are worth. A mandated wage increase will boost some workers' wages at the expense of other workers' jobs. The living wage is merely a hiked-up minimum wage — "A minimum wage on steroids," as author Star Parker puts it. ARRAH NIELSEN opinion@kansan.com If a minimum wage increase will reduce poverty, why settle for only a one- or two-dollar increase? Why not raise the minimum to $500 an hour so we'd all be making more than Lew Perkins? Because that isn't how economics works. The only place where economics works this way is in the imagination of a liberal. FRESH AUGUST A professor of mine was fond of pointing out the superiority of employee wages in Europe. He seemed not to know that European nations also have much higher rates of unemployment. France and Spain both have unemployment rates in the double digits. More than 80 studies demonstrate a link between minimum wage increases and higher unemployment rates. But my professor didn't mention any of the drawbacks of increasing the minimum wage. That didn't surprise me. Liberals don't like to talk about the high costs of implementing their half-baked ideas. There isn't a committee anywhere that sits around and decides what people "deserve" or what they're "really worth." In a free market, the market determines wages, not third-party committees. What people are paid comes down to what workers are willing to work for and what their employers are willing to pay them. You can pay low-wage workers $10 an hour, $100 an hour or a monkey and a handshake, for that matter, but it won't improve the skill or productivity of the low-wage worker. All you are doing is artificially raising the pay scale. The market automatically adjusts to the supply of money, and as wage floors rise, so does the cost of everything else. "How many working families will be helped?" asks The Nation's Stephen Luce of establishing a living wage. Hardly any. U.S. Census data in 2003 revealed that the average family income of the typical low-wage worker is $40,000 a year. Seventy-two percent have a family income at least 50 percent above the poverty line. Twenty percent belong to families making more than $80,000 a year. Most low-wage workers are students, adults living at home with their parents, or they are being supported by a spouse. Hardly any are supporting a family. But statistics like those above do little to persuade those who prefer to view the law of supply and demand as a moral melodrama. A massive empirical study spanning from 1966 to 1988 conducted by Richard Vedder and Lowell Gallaway found that minimum wage increases did not lower poverty rates. It actually increased poverty in some instances. Furthermore, statistical analysis found a link between minimum wage increases and higher unemployment rates. The party of the people is advocating a policy that will eliminate the peoples' jobs. Distorting market wages through living wage ordinances gums up the economy and hampers job creation. It is better for low-wage workers to be employed than it is for living wage advocates to pass counterproductive measures that make them feel noble.

Democrats answered back, knocking off the longest-serving Republican in the chamber, Rep. Phil Crane, an Illinois conservative from Chicago's wealthy suburbs, and a Georgia freshman incumbent. But their longshot chance of gaining 12 seats to end Republican command was nearly extinguished with less than one-fifth of the 435 House races still to be decided. "Despite Democratic claims to the contrary, we are going to be the majority party in the 109th Congress, declared Rep. Thomas Reynolds, R.N.Y., who heads the GOP's House campaign operation. By early Wednesday in the East, Republicans had won 207 seats and were leading in 22 others, which could give them at least 229 seats, 11 more than the majority needed for House control. Republicans held a 227-205 advantage over Democrats in the outgoing House, plus two GOP leaning vacant seats and an independent who sided with Democrats. its chief architects were House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R Texas, who was easily re-elected. Months after Texas' dominant state Republicans redrew congressional district lines to the GOP's advantage, the fiercely disputed plan bore fruit and fueled the party's hopes of holding its House majority. Among Texas Democratic Reps. Charles Stenholm, a leading fiscal conservative and power on the Agriculture Committee, and Martin Frost, a one-time member of his party's leadership, were both defeated, as were Reps. Max Sandlin and Nick Lampson. The four had a total of 68 years of House experience. The apparent failure of either party to make dramatic House gains underscored how the national debates over Iraq and the economy provided no decisive help to either side. Earlier in the evening, Nick Clooney, former Cincinnati television anchor and father of actor George Clooney, lost his attempt to hold an open northeastern Kentucky seat for Democrats. He was beaten by GOP businessman Geoff Davis. Democrats fared better in the well-to-do suburbs north of Chicago, where they defeated Crane, whose 35-year House career was the longest among the chamber's Republicans. The victor was Melissa Bean, who was born seven years before Crane entered the House and characterized him as out of touch with his district. They also ousted freshman GOP Rep. Max Burns, a top target of theirs, from a Democratic-leaning east Georgia seat. Republican Nancy Naples was trailing in her attempt to hold an open seat for her party in a district around Buffalo, N.Y. In Connecticut, the GOP overcame Democratic efforts to tie some Republican incumbents to President Bush, whose popularity is low there. Maverick GOP Rep. Christopher Shays and former CIA agent Rep. Rob Simmons staved off Democratic rivals. Frost's bitter race against GOP Rep. Pete Sessions was the country's most expensive; the pair raised $8.4 million by late October, split almost equally. Stenholm was defeated by freshman Rep. Randy Neugebauer in a district in which two-thirds of the voters were new to Stenholm. Another endangered Texas Democrat, Chet Edwards, held a slender lead against his challenger, despite the influence of one of his Crawford, Texas, constituents: President Bush. Incumbents were coasting to re-election from Minnesota to Florida as well, including former presidential hopeful Rep. Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio. Also returned for a second House term was Rep. Katherine Harris, R-Fla., who was her state's secretary of state during the pivotal Florida recount during the 2000 presidential election. Three candidates with congressional pedigrees triumphed. Democrat Daniel Lipinski won the Chicago seat held by his father, William, for 22 years; Democrat Dan Boren of Oklahoma, son of a former senator, won a House seat; and Republican Connie Mack, namesake son of the former senator, grabbed the Fort Myers, Fla., seat vacated by Porter Goss when he was chosen to head the CIA. Voters pass various measures THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Californians voted yesterday to spend $3 billion on stem cell research, putting the state on the cutting edge of a field questioned by conservatives and the Bush administration. Arizonans approved a crackdown on illegal immigrants, adopting a measure that would deter them from voting or obtaining certain government services. Florida voters approved a $1-an-hour hike in the state minimum wage. Montana became the 10th state to legalize marijuana for medical purposes and Oklahoma voters approved a state lottery, leaving only nine states without one. In all, 163 measures were on the ballots in 34 states. Eleven states were considering constitutional bans on same-sex marriage; the bans were approved in the first 10 states to report results. Backers of California's Proposition 71, which will support human embryonic stem cell research, said the measure was needed because the Bush administration has restricted funding to about $25 million a year. The campaign became a battle of Hollywood stars after actor-turned-governor Arnold Schwarzenegger broke Republican ranks to line up in support with late Superman actor Christopher Reeve and Family Ties actor Michael J. Fox. Actor and director Mel Gibson was among high-profile foes of the measure. The Arizona immigration initiative was touted by supporters as a way to curtail fraud by requiring people to produce proof of immigration status when obtaining certain government services. It would punish state workers who looked the other way. Floridians voted to raise the state's minimum wage to $6.15 an hour, a dollar higher than the federal minimum wage. Arizona is the busiest illegal entry point on the U.S.-Mexico border, and spends millions annually to provide food stamps, welfare and other social services to illegal immigrants. A similar measure was on Nevada's ballot. Florida voters also approved a measure limiting the privacy rights of girls seeking abortions, meaning the Legislature can now pass a law requiring parents to be notified. Lawmakers had been stymined in efforts to pass such a law by court rulings that say they violated the privacy provision of the state constitution. Many of the most noteworthy ballot items were in Western states, including a potentially history-making proposal to legalize marijuana in Alaska. Federal drug czar John Walters denounced the measure; supporters defended it as a sensible alternative to existing drug policies. In Oregon, voters were deciding whether to expand their state's existing medical-marijuana program. Republicans gain in Senate THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Democratic State Sen, Barack Obama easily won a seat formerly in Republican hands in Illinois, and will be the only black among 100 senators when the new Congress convenes in January. WASHINGTON Republicans renewed their grip on the Senate last night and captured a string of Democratic seats across the South. WASHINGTON Rep. Johnny Isakson claimed Georgia for the Republicans, and Rep. Jim DeMint took South Carolina. Rep. Richard Burr soon followed suit in North Carolina. In each case, Democratic retirements induced ambitious lawmakers to give up safe House seats to risk a run for the Senate. GOP candidates mounted strong challenges in two more southern states where Democrats stepped down. In Florida, former HUD Secretary Mel Martinez held a narrow lead over Betty Castor, a former state legislator, with votes counted in more than 90 percent of the precincts. In Louisiana, Republican Rep. David Vitter led several Democratic rivals comfortably with more than 90 percent of the precincts counted, and flirted with an outright majority that would allow him to avoid a Dec. 4 runoff. Most incumbents of both parties won handily. For some, it was a struggle. Sen. Jim Bunning of Kentucky scrambled mightly before winning a new term in Kentucky. Arlen Specter won re-election in Pennsylvania with barely 50 percent of the vote in a multi-candidate field. Both are Republicans. There were other exceptions to the easy-election trend for incumbents. Democratic leader Tom Daschle and former Rep. John Thune were in an impossibly close race with votes counted in one-third of their sparsely populated state — separated by fewer than 1,000 votes. Theirs was a campaign on which the two men spent $26 million — an estimated $50 for each registered voter. With few exceptions, incumbents won new terms with ease. Republicans who won new terms included Sens. Richard Shelby of Alabama, Kit Bond of Missouri, Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, George Voinovich of Ohio, Sam Brownback of Kansas, Robert Bennett of Utah, Charles Grassley of Iowa, Mike Crapo of Idaho, John McCain of Arizona and Specter. Among Democratic incumbents, Sens. Patrick Leahy of Vermont, Christopher Dodd of Connecticut, Barbara Mikulski of Maryland, Evan Bayh of Indiana, Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas, Byron Dorgan of North Dakota, Russell Feingold of Wisconsin, Charles Schumer of New York, Harry Reid of Nevada, Patty Murray of Washington, Barbara Boxer of California, Ron Wyden of Oregon and Daniel Inouye of Hawaii won new terms. There were 34 seats on the ballot, 19 held by Democrats and 15 by Republicans. Underground WESCOE HALL LEVEL We're Wireless!

Going into yesterday's elections, Republicans controlled the Senate, 30-10, and the House, 80-45. With results incomplete in parts of the state, it wasn't clear early this morning how those numbers would shift. Democrats appeared to be knocking off two Senate Republican incumbents, including in the 18th District, where Topeka lobbyist Laura Kelly defeated Sen. Dave Jackson of Topeka by 39 votes with 100 percent of the precincts reporting. The results were unofficial, pending the counting of provisional ballots. Sen. Janis Lee, D-Kensington, led Sen. Larry Salmans, R-Hanston, in the 36th District with 84 percent of the votes counted. Redistricting of Senate seats following the 2000 Census pitted the two incumbents in a district that has a strong Republican majority. Lee was looking for her fifth term in the Senate. Republicans picked up one seat in a newly created district in Johnson County and hoped for gains elsewhere. Democrats won six Senate seats and led in two others, while Republicans won 19 and led in another six. Meanwhile, in the House, Republicans were leading or winning in 75 races, compared with 55 for Democrats. Several Democratic incumbents faced serious challenges after they voted in May against a proposed constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage. One of those, Rep. Jan Scoggins-Waite of Dodge City was defeated by GOP challenger Pat George of Dodge City by a 2-1 margin. Elsewhere, Rep. Josh Svaty, D-Ellsworth led in his race for re-election in the 108th District. Voters in districts with open seats said they were looking for new voices in the Senate. Jim Kemp, 35, a Lawrence business owner, said the Legislature needed balance, including more liberals. He voted for Democrat Jan Justice of Linwood in the 3rd District "It's important that our voices are heard compared to the conservative voices across Kansas," Kemp said. Senate race, an open seat. Justice was trailing Lawrence Republican Roger Pine with 50 percent of precincts reporting. Nationwide, voters were deciding control of 44 state houses. Republicans hold majorities in both chambers in 21 states, including Kansas, while Democrats control both in 17, and control is divided in 11. Democrats last held control of the Kansas House in 1992 and held the Senate last in 1916. The results were likely to determine how receptive the Legislature will be to raising taxes for education. All 165 legislative seats were to be filled, with contested races on the ballot in 32 Senate districts and 66 House districts. That issue dominated the 2004 session and could play a big role next year, after legislators receive an expected ruling from the Kansas Supreme Court on a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the state's school finance system. Legislators open their 2005 session Jan. 10. Brownback wins Senate, Moore lone Democrat GOP congressmen retain seats in both U.S. houses Republican Sen. Sam Browback and GOP Reps. Jerry Moran, Jim Ryun and Todd Tiahrt all won comfortable victories. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Moore-Kobach contest had been viewed as highly competitive, but Moore prevailed by his widest margin since first running for Congress six years ago. "This is a landslide for me," he said. Kobach told his supporters that his campaign was about principles _ such as opposing abortion, supporting an amendment to the federal constitution to ban gay marriage and doing more to combat terrorism. Some moderates had complained that Kobach did little to appeal to them. In Lawrence, M.J. Cummings, a 75-year-old retired teacher, voted for Moore even though she was registered as a Republican, feeling Kobach was too conservative. "I would have voted for a moderate Republican, if there was one," she said. The district covers Johnson and Wyandotte counties and part of Douglas County, but three-quarters of the voters are in Johnson County, where registered Republicans outnumber Democrats by more than 2-to1. Brownback bested Democrat Lee Jones, a Lenexa railroad engineer who'd struggled to raise money and gain visibility. Ryun defeated Democrat Nancy Boyda and Tiahrt beat Democrat Michael Kinard, the president of the Wichita school board. Moran's only opponent was Libertarian Jack Warner, of Wright. Moore, 58. of Lenexa, has held the 3rd District seat since 1999 by courting moderate Republicans. He received just 50 percent of the vote two years ago. Kobach, 38, a former U.S. Justice Department official from Overland Park, made immigration policy and national security key issues. He attacked Moore for voting against the use of National Guard troops along U.S. borders, a position Moore suggested was too extreme for the district. Meanwhile, in the 2nd District, Boyda and Ryun argued most heatedly over who supported American troops more. One Ryun ad noted that Boyda participated in protests against the Iraq war before it began _ and used an image of Osama bin Laden. Boyda, 49, a former pharmaceutical company research and development manager, moved to Topeka last year to run. Before entering politics, Ryun, 57, of Lawrence, was best known as an Olympic runner. In the Senate race, Jones, 53, tried to portray Brownback as too conservative for Kansas. He cited the 48-year-old senator's support for keeping federal courts from hearing cases such as one in which a California atheist attacked the use of "under God" when the Pledge of Allegiance is recited in public schools. Bistate tax to fund stadium improvement, arts rejected However, Brownback raised $2.5 million for his re-election campaign, while Jones could muster only $90,000. Kansas last elected a Democratic senator in 1932. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Voters yesterday rejected a proposal to impose a quarter-cent sales tax in five Kansas City-area counties to renovate stadiums used by the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals and to promote the arts. It was one of several contentious local issues facing voters in Missouri and Kansas at the polls yesterday. The sales tax proposal was on ballots in Jackson, Clay, and Platte counties in Missouri and Johnson and Wyandotte counties in Kansas. To pass, the tax had to be approved by Jackson, Clay and Johnson counties. Platte and Wyandotte counties would have levied the tax only if it passed in those two counties. Voters in Jackson County — the home of the stadiums and a proposed new arts center approved the tax, with 54.6 percent in favor and 45.4 percent unofficial returns. In Clay County, the tax was rejected 53 percent to 47 percent; in Johnson County, it was defeated 55 percent to 45 percent. The tax also failed in Platte County, 52 percent to 48 percent, and was resoundingly defeated in Wyandotte County, with 63 percent opposed and 57 percent in support, according to opposed, according to complete but unofficial results. But voters in all four of the other counties rejected the proposal. Opponents, who ran a mostly grass-roots campaign, said the tax would have cost too much and the plan did not include enough accountability for spending the money. Tracy Thomas, of Shawnee, said she founded Johnson County First because of the arrogance of the tax's supporters. "We stood up for the little guy," Thomas said. "We were outspent 100 to 1. It was very difficult to stand up to the rien guys who wanted their hobbies subsidized." Supporters of the proposal tried to put the best face on the defeat. "The vote was not successful, but I think the effort to move the community forward was very successful," said Peter Levi, president of the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce, one of many area business organizations that pushed the proposal. "We got people in the metro area working together on a very important issue, understanding the importance of sports and arts." Levi said he believed the proposal failed because being taxed to support arts and sports was a new idea that "takes some time for people to recognize and understand." The tax was expected to raise about $1.2 billion over 12 to 15 years, with half going to the stadiums and half for the arts. kansan.com NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews Now. kansan.com Nix Shaving!

Republican Secretary of State Matt Blunt won Missouri's hard-fought gubernatorial race early Wednesday, riding an overwhelming rural vote to a narrow victory over Democratic State Auditor Claire McCaskill. Blunt would become Missouri's second youngest governor when sworn into office in January. His victory also could give Republicans full control of the Capitol for the first time in 82 years. The Associated Press projected Blunt's victory based on actual results with 87 percent of precincts reporting and analysis of the outstanding ballots. Blunt led McCaskill by about 3 percentage points — 1,167,256 votes to 1,106,464. Blunt built large leads in much of rural Missouri — quadrupling, for example, McCaskill's vote in the western county of Barton and doubling it in several others where all precincts were reporting. McCaskill countered victories in St. Louis and Jackson County. She also had a large early lead in the Democratic stronghold of St. Louis city, where a number of ballots were still outstanding because long lines caused voting to continue until nearly 10 p.m. — three hours after the polls closed. McCaskill took over the state Democratic Party by defeating Holden in the Aug. 3 primary—the first time an incumbent Missouri governor had ever lost a primary. Blunt, the son of U.S. Rep. Roy Blunt, was his party's chosen candidate from the start. A statistical analysis of exit poll information showed McCaskill faring best among voters who cited the economy/jobs, education and health care as their most important issues. Blunt was strongest among those citing same-sex marriage, abortion, gun control and taxes as their biggest issues. McCaskill would be Missouri's first woman governor; Blunt would be its second youngest. Those distinctions came into play in the campaign as McCaskill, 51, touted her professional and personal experiences and Blunt, 33, held himself out as the only real chance for change. Cleaver captures lead in race for U.S. House KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Democrats with prominent political names — former Kansas City Mayor Emanuel Cleaver and state Rep. Russ Carnahan — took early leads in their races for seats in the U.S. House of Representatives. Democratic Reps. William Lacy Clay and Ike Skelton and Republican Reps. Roy Blunt, JoAnn Emerson, Sam Graves and Todd Akin won their races. The state's other incumbent congressmen, GOP Rep. Kenny Hulshof, appeared on his way to victory. With 38 percent of the precincts counted in the 5th District, Cleaver had 52 percent of the vote; his Republican opponent, millionaire Jeanne Patterson, had 46 percent. Patterson, a political novice who spent nearly $3 million on her campaign, made the race much closer than observers had expected. MINNESOTA The winner of the Cleaver-Patterson race will succeed Democratic Rep. Karen McCarthy, who announced her retirement after being accused of misusing government workers and campaign dollars for her own benefit. Carnahan, son of the former governor killed in a plane crash four years ago, was leading his Republican opponent, Bill Federer, in the 3rd District. With 30 percent of the precincts reporting, Carnahan had 54 percent of the vote, Federer had 44 percent. n In northwest Missouri's 6th District, Graves defeated Democrat Charlie Broomfield, 62 percent to 36 percent, with 56 percent of the precincts reporting.

After the polls had been closed for an hour, Minnesota Secretary of State Mary Kiffmeyer told reporters that most voting places in Minnesota did not have the long lines that many anticipated for the evening. Nevertheless, turnout was heavy enough that election officials in Olmsted, Blue Earth and Dakota counties and Hopkins said they almost ran out of ballots. Copies of ballots were made and the voting continued. The shorter lines could signal that voter turnout is unlikely to hit a record high, said Kfmeyer, who predicted that it would reach at least 70 percent.

Amendment 3, which proposed to legalize two casinos in the state, lost with 65 percent of voters against it. Of the four initiatives that made up a competing plan to legalize casinos, only one that had nothing to do with casinos was ahead. Initiative 418, which would increase the number of votes needed to change a law passed by initiative, was winning with 54 percent in favor. The Associated Press ILLINOIS 21 Obama captures seat President x John F. Kerry, Dem George W. Bush, Rep (i) Michael Badnarik, Lib Reporting: 94.1% THE ASSOCIAED PRESS CHICAGO — Barack Obama, the son of a Kenyan father and an Armenian mother who shot from obscurity to political stardom in mere months, trounced Republican Alan Keyes on Tuesday to claim a Senate seat in Illinois. He will be just the third black U.S. senator since Reconstruction. 55.2% 44.2% 0.6% The resounding victory is the latest chapter in a rags-to-riches story for a man who grew up on the beaches of Hawaii and the streets of Indonesia barely knowing his father but has gone on to become a linchpin of the Democratic Party's future. He gave the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention, delivering a message of national unity in a stirring speech that made him an overnight political sensation. National news shows and magazines profiled him, and the 43-year-old state senator from Chicago became a top draw for other Democrats' campaigns. Obama will replace Republican Sen. Peter Fitzgerald, who declined to run for a second term. The campaign was one of the strangest races in state history — a contest between a liberal political superstar and a conservative former ambassador who had never lived in Illinois. And Keyes was far from the GOP's U.S. Senate Reporting: 94.1% x Barack Obama, Dem 70.3% Alan Keyes, Rep 26.8% Albert Franzen, Ind 1.6% Jerry Kohn, Lib 1.3% top choice Investment banker-turned teacher Jack Ryan won the Republican primary in March, but dropped out of the race three months later after records were released from his divorce with "Star Trek: Voyager" and "Boston Public" actress Jeri Ryan. The documents revealed embarrassing allegations that the candidate took his wife to sex clubs in Paris, New York and New Orleans and tried to get her to perform sex acts with him while others watched. The GOP searched for a replacement candidate but was turned down by a string of former governors, state senators and even Chicago Bears legend Mike Ditka. Only in August did the Republican Party settle on a replacement candidate, offering the role to Keyes, a conservative Maryland resident and two-time presidential candidate. Keyes also is black. It was the first U.S. Senate election in history in which two black candidates represented the major parties. Keyes, 54, focused his campaign on morality and argued that abortion and homosexuality threaten the country. He criticized what he called the "socialism" of Obama's positions. TEXAS 34 President Reporting: 88.4% x George W. Bush, Rep (i) 61.3% John F. Kerry, 38.2% Michael Badamar, Lib 0.5% WASHINGTON Republicans take over three seats in Texas WASHINGTON — Republicans defeated three veteran Texas Democrats Tuesday as they glided toward extending their decade-long control of the House. Democrats made a run at knocking off the longest-serving Republican in the chamber. Months after Texas' dominant state Republicans redrew congressional district lines to the GOP's advantage, the fiercely disputed plan bore fruit and fueled the party's hopes of holding its House majority. Among its chief architects were House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, R-Texas, who was easily re-elected. Texas Democratic Reps. Charles Stenholm, a leading fiscal conservative and power on the Agriculture Committee, and Martin Frost, a one-time member of his party's leadership, were both defeated, along with Rep. Max Sandlin.

Don Nickles, who is retiring after 24 years in office. OKLAHOMA CITY — Former three-term Rep. Tom Coburn kept a U.S. Senate seat in GOP hands Tuesday, defeating Rep. Brad Carson despite allegations that the Republican, an obstetrician, once sterilized a woman without her permission. During the bruising campaign, Coburn vehemently denied the allegations by a woman who said he had sterilized her several years ago. Coburn branded Carson a liberal and aligned him with prominent Democrats, running ads that showed the Democrat as a puppet with John Kerry pulling the strings. Carson, 37, an attorney and a Rhodes scholar, wore cowboy boots on the campaign trail and tooled around in a beat-up pickup truck. He said he would fight for Oklahomans, create jobs and never embarrass the state, drawing a distinction between himself and the outspoken Coburn. During the campaign, Coburn, 56, said he favored the death penalty for doctors who perform abortions and mentioned hearing of "rampant lesbianism" in southeastern Oklahoma schools. Referring to state legislators, Coburn said the state had not prospered because of "crapheads in Oklahoma City." Coburn represented a heavily Democratic congressional district in Oklahoma for six years before stepping down to honor his pledge to serve no more than three terms. The Muskogee doctor was succeeded by Carson in 2001. COLORADO Lead could help Democrats 9 President Reporting: 81.4% x George W. Bush, Rep (i) 53.2% John F.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A even know if my vote will count," said John Daniel-Pope, Bay City, Tex., freshman. Pope registered a couple of months ago at a table on Massachusetts Street. When he got to the polls yesterday, though, his name wasn't on the poll roster. Daniel-Pope had to cast a provisional ballot. Provisional ballots, mandated by the "Help America Vote Act" of 2002, are ballots not counted in original totals. Lois McGovem, assistant election worker, said she knew of an estimated 3,000 provisional ballots cast yesterday. That's more than double the 1,236 cast in 2000. Marni Penrod, Douglas County deputy county clerk for elections, said she hoped to count all provisional ballots last night, but had not counted them by midnight. She said voters cast provision ballots if they haven't provided the necessary identification at the poll, if their local addresses were not the same as the one they are registered under or if they changed their names, but failed to update their information. If that was the problem, Penrod said the ballot would most likely count. If there was another problem, she said she didn't know what would happen. Most students issued provisional ballots were disappointed or angry. "In retrospect, I probably should have registered someplace else." Daniel-Pope said of registering on Massachusetts St. Some students blamed their residence hall registration process for the mix-ups. James Thomas, Wichita freshman, and Dan Bishop, New Jersey freshman, registered when they first moved into Ellsworth Hall this semester. They said they thought the registration cards were never mailed in. When their names were not on the roster, they each had to cast provisional ballots. "We got screwed over by the dorms," Thomas said. Sara Andersen, Kansas City, Kan., junior, had to cast a provisional ballot because she didn't have her KUID. She had her driver's license, but her Kansas City address conflicted with her Lawrence address. Andersen said she was confused, as her name was still on the roster. "I don't understand because a KUID doesn't have an address either." she said. At least one student was saved from the provisional ballot mayhem. Susan Alig, Leawood freshman, first registered in front of Mrs. E's earlier this semester. When she didn't get confirmation in the mail, she said she was worried and re-registered online at the Rock the Vote Web site. To double-check her registration, Alig called the Douglas County Commissioner's Office. Although it's too late now for Daniel-Pope, James Thomas and Dan Bishop, this election has taught at least one lesson. If you want to make sure you're registered, check twice.

More than 500 supporters packed the first floor of the Ritz Charles hall in Overland Park and watched the results on big screen televisions. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A As updates were given throughout the night showing Moore ahead, supporters clapped and cheered. Kolaich never led although his supporters stayed upbeat throughout the night. One man waved a Bible in the air behind television reporters and another held a toddler dressed in an elephant costume. Around 8:45 p.m., at Kobach's headquarters at the Overland Park Marriott, a well-dressed elderly "When Kris gets ahead, we'll be back," the woman remarked. They never came back. An hour later, after 99 percent of the precincts in the 3rd district had reported, Moore gave his acceptance speech. "I'm very, very proud of the third district for doing the right thing and voting the right way," he said. Amidst cheers from the crowd, he thanked voters in Johnson and Wyandotte counties, and he also thanked "not just the good part of Lawrence, but the great part of lawrence." After his speech he put on a sombrero and played the guitar while singing "This Land is Your Land." Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, Democrat, joined Moore during the celebration and sang along with the crowd. After the song she congratulated him. "It looks like, compared to other years, this is a landslide," she said. She said Moore would be in Washington, D.C., fighting for the citizens of the 3rd district. Jarrod Morgenstern, Overland Park freshman, worked for the Democratic coordinated campaign in Kansas City, Kan. "I felt good the entire way. There's so many more people than just me, but I'm glad to have been a part of it," he said, after Moore's speech. "I wish I was more happy but the presidential race is looming over my head now." Shannon Keefe, Chicago senior, was at the high class Ritz Charles last night celebrating Moore's win under nine giant chandeliers. She was happy he won, but was disappointed with the location of the celebration. She said the Ritz Charles was not representative of some of Moore's constituents. "It's kind of like a depressing irony to celebrate in a haughty taughty place like this," she said. At the Marriott, Kobach's supporters didn't need to be told that Moore won because the Democrat had led the race throughout the night. Still, As Moore wrapped up the night giving interviews and talking to supporters, some of the people stayed to follow the Presidential race. "I can't imagine what you guys would be like if I actually won," he said. Kobach's followers remained proud. As Moore gave his speech, Kobach's crowd boo'ed Before Kobach gave his concession speech, people tore sign off the wall to wave as he smoke Dayton Blume, senior at Blue Valley North, said he supported Kobach because of his stance on immigration laws. The people were there because of what the campaign stood for and what they stood for were principles, he said. Blume makes some of his living mowing lawns and said the current, lax policies meant immigrants were taking his business. Evan Toren, Shawnee junior, said Moore was a shrewd and intelligent politician because he managed to sell an image of him being moderate, when in reality, he was as far left as they came. "It's just two more years of Dennis Moore," he said. Audrey Esther and Tess Montano contributed to this story. VICTORY: Lawrence residents attention captured by races CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A Bush' and everyone else will call him an idiot. I'm waiting for fights when every gets drunk." "I'm just nervous. I keep watching the numbers climb and I don't like the fluctuations," said Russ Miller, Leavenworth senior and cook at Buffalo Wild Wings. "If even half the country has a conscience there's no way good of Georgie's winning again." The Douglas County Republican Party gathered at the west side of the bar watching the Fox News Network while others watched CNN at the other end of the bar. All but one of the TVs were tuned to election coverage at The Yacht Club, typically a sports bar. Hunter Anderson and Andrew Johnson sat on bar stools at a high table toward the back of the bar, watching the election. Anderson and Johnson, both Leawood juniors, belong to the Sigma Chi fraternity. They said that they started watching the election coverage at Sigma Chi, but went to the Yacht Club to get something to eat. "Almost everyone back at the house was watching it." Anderson said of the election coverage. Anderson, a Bush supporter, said that he was nervous about the election, but Johnson was trying to calm his nerves — he ordered another round of beer. "We are not that tense now that we are drinking beer," Johnson said. At one party, a house was split into two teams. For every 10 electoral votes recorded by a candidate, one member of the team had to chug a beer. Adam Liston, West Des Moines, Iowa, senior, was the most vocal Democrat. No matter how much bad news rolled in for his candidate, he locked onto the good news he could find. When Missouri was too close to call, he was celebrating. "I thought Missouri would flock to Bush," Liston said. "That's awesome." It was about this time, however, that one of Liston's Bushsupporting friends stepped through his door to join the party in progress. As he walked in, NBC declared another state had gone for Bush, propelling Bush's lead to 170-112. "It's over," said Matt Warnemunde, Clive, Iowa senior, said. "It's all over." As more of the returns came in, and Bush's numbers edged higher, the depression in the Kerry camp increased. "I need to get drunk to settle my nerves." Liston said. Paul Davis, who ran unopposed for the 46th District Rep. seat, introduced Gov. Kathleen Sebelius at Abe and Jake's Landing last night. Hundreds of Democrats watched the election results with local candidates Davis, Rep. Barbara Ballard, who won an unopposed reelection for 44th District seat, and Marci Francisco, who was projected last right to lose the election for a 2nd District Sen. seat. Republicans celebrated Roger Pine's campaign upstairs. The two parties were civil to each other, though they did not mix "I think your voices will be heard loud and clear," Sebelius said. "You all will play a key role in making sure Kansans have a bright and progressive future." Sebelius stopped by before heading to Dennis Moore's campaign celebration. She said Democrats in Douglas County were important to Kansas. Though only 20 percent of Kansans are registered Democrats, Sebelius described Kansans as "ferociously independent." She said Kansans wanted to know who the candidates were and what their values and visions were, rather than voting along party lines. A cup of coffee, a warm blanket and a freshly-lit cigarette. That's all one group of students needed to enjoy the election last night, as they braved the cold on the Hashinger Hall porch. The cold was nothing compared to what Anestasia Kolobrodova, Overland Park freshman, would do if Kerry lost, she said. "I'll be walking to Canada if Bush wins," Kolrobodova said. On the third level of the Kansas Union about 14 people gathered to watch election coverage on the big-screen TV. A few feet away a janitor, Harry Chinn, listened to election results from National Public Radio on the radio as he swept the floor. He supported Kerry, he said. At a table near the television Nathan Drew, Des Moines, Iowa freshman, alternately watched CNN and discussed the election with Chris Thompson, Dallas freshman, seated across from him. Drew, a Kerry supporter, said he and Thompson, a Bush supporter, had planned to watch the election results at the Union because of the big-screen TV. Although Thompson and Drew debated who should be the next president, they did agree on the importance of voting. "It's our lives were voting on," Thompson said.

This season's Buffaloes have many of the same strengths, and when they come to Lawrence this weekend, they will face a we a k e r I av a w k A. M. offense, offset by a vastly improved defense Last year, both teams had quarterbacks who threw for more than 400 yards in that contest, including the Buffaloes' current quarterback Joel Klatt. But Klatt has not been as dominant this season as he was last year. This season, he has thrown for 1,312 yards and five touchdowns. Last season, he passed for 21 touchdowns, which placed him second on Colorado's all-time passing touchdown list. "Their offense, at times, has been explosive throwing the ball," said Kansas coach Mark Mangino. "Joel Klutt is certainly a quality quarterback, and when he is hot he can do some damage." This season, the Jayhawk defense is much improved — it is coming off a defensive performance in which it allowed less than 200 yards of total offense against Iowa State. Klatt also lacks the support of Colorado's wide receivers from last season. The Buffalooes lost D.J. Hackett and Derek McCoy at the end of last year when they graduated. Hackett and McCoy combined for nearly 2,000 yards Joel Klatt is certainly a quality quarterback Mark Mangino Kansas football coach and when he is hot he can do some damage." receiving and 18 touchdowns last season. "Those receivers they had were really good," Kansas junior linebacker Kevin Kane said. "They have great receivers this year too, but those guys really helped their offense." Klatt and the rest of the Colorado team will face a Kansas secondary that is tied for first in the conference with 13 interceptions, led by sophomore cornerback Charles Gordon who has made four this season. "We just have to go out there and execute in the secondary." Rodney Harris, Kansas sophomore safety, said. "Attack the ball when it is in the air and go get it and try to keep the lead in the conference in interceptions." In Saturday's game, Klatt may be forced to throw the football more than he normally does. Colorado's starting running back, Bobby Purify, may have to sit it out with a shoulder injury. Purify has rushed for 689 yards and six touchdowns this year, and he averages 5.3 yards per carry. But the rest of the team has struggled running the football. "They have not run the ball the way they would like on a consistent basis." Mangino said. Mangino said the Kansas defense would prepare for the game as if Purify would be playing. Kickoff is at 12:30 Saturday afternoon at Memorial Stadium. - Edited by Paige Worthy In addition to Barmann, junior cornerback Theo Baines missed last week with an unspecified leg injury, but is probable for this week. Also injured are sophomore John Randle and junior Clark Green, the team's two primary tailbacks. Senior center Joe Vaughn left the first half of last weekend's game against Iowa State with an injury, but he returned for the second half and should play this week. CONTINUED FROM PAGE PAGE 14A FOOTBALL: Injuries unlikely to heal completely by last games Baines' injury has been fairly perplexing to the Kansas team. As late as last Wednesday, Mangino had expected Baines to be available against Iowa State. This week, Mangino said Baines had practiced, but had developed pain and soreness after a limited number of reps. "He didn't finish practice yesterday," Mangino said. "But we are optimistic that as the week Randle's situation is unique in that the injury is not mechanical, but is painful. Mangino said. Randle was originally hurt during the Jayhawks' Oct. 23 game at Oklahoma. He was able to play a few minutes against Iowa State before having to go back out. progresses there will be less soreness." "John's injury is a lot of pain," Mangino said "We thought we'd get a few plays with John, but after three or four plays, he just couldn't function." Randle was extremely limited for the week before the game, and some of that showed on the field. "His injury was such that he wasn't able to push up in practice, but they felt that with a lot of treatment he may have been able to play." Mangino said of the trainers' comments on Randle. He added that Randle felt better every day and that he could be ready to play this weekend. Green's injury, which he suffered against Iowa State, is entirely different from Randle's in that it's not a question of pain, but of sheer mechanics. "Clark is playing with a fairly debilitating injury," Mangino said. "But he's not having as much pain as John is." Mangino said that Green's injury was of a nature where he would have to play through it for some time, but the team was hopeful Green would not need surgery. Saturday against Colorado, Green will probably get the start, with Randle's status uncertain. In addition to keeping some players out of games, injuries have also limited the number of reps players can take in practice. Mangino said yesterday that the offense's biggest problem was execution, and freshman defensive lineman Todd Haselhorst attributed a lot of the team's execution problems to the practice situation. "I'd say that we have to change our plans a little bit," Haselhorst said of how the injuries affect the team. "It hasn't been too bothersome, it's just been a pain." And when injuries keep players out of practice, they tend to make things harder during the game. "It's definitely a lot harder to come off the week cold turkey and do the things you have to do for Saturday." Haselhorst said. Because of the nature of some of these injuries, they cannot truly heal until the season ends, leaving Kansas in an awkward position in its final three games. — Edited by Rupal Gor Chiefs backup RB itching to play THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Larry Johnson has been agitating all year for more playing time as running back. The Kansas City Chiefs might have no choice but to accommodate their former No.1 pick. Derrick Blaylock, who has passed Johnson to become Priest Holmes' top backup, is doubtful for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay because of a deep thigh bruise. That could mean a bigger role for Johnson, who was drafted out of Penn State in 2003 when the Chiefs weren't sure Holmes could return from offseason hip surgery. Johnson touched the ball for the first time this season on Sunday, in Kansas City's 45-35 victory over Indianapolis. But his lone carry, for 19 yards, came on the last play of the first half with the Colts playing deep to avoid a long pass. Johnson could have played more, coach Dick Vermeil said, but the Chiefs needed Holmes on the field to help answer Indianapolis' second-half scoring surge. Johnson, who led the nation in rushing as a senior at Penn State with 2,087 yards in 13 games, has only 20 carries as a pro. He's been inactive for several games this year and has made no effort to conceal his unhappiness. "When Derrick went down with a thigh bruise, I had talked to Larry and said, 'Be ready to go,'" Vermil said. "It didn't work, but he will be ready to go this Sunday." He and Vermeil clashed earlier this year when Vermeil said Johnson should "take off the diapers" and go to work. Then last month when he was not traded by the deadline, Johnson But the Chiefs said they did not trade their disgruntled back-up because they still believe in his potential. "We want him to be a top running back here," Vermei said at the time. Despite his public discontent with his role, Johnson remains popular with his teammates. The day after his latest flare-up, fullback and team leader Tony Richardson roped off Johnson's locker with warm caution tape. Many teammates also crowded around and offered encouragement on Sunday when it looked as though Johnson might be going in. "Larry Johnson is a very likable kid. I like him." Vermil said. "Just because I get mad at him — I get mad at my wife but I still love her. "Our players, the kind of team we have, the chemistry we have, they want the other guy to succeed," he added. "Why? They know we're going to need everybody one time or another." Blaylock, who scored four of the Chiefs' NFL-record eight rushing touchdowns against Atlanta on Oct. 24, is frequently used on third-down situations — and now, in his fourth season in Kansas City, has learned the ins and outs of the Chiefs' offense. "What you have to realize as a backup running back is you don't know when you're going in, and you don't know what down and distance it's going to be," Vermeil said. "It might be third and 1, or third and 15. That's what's so tough on a young player. That's why Derrick Blaylock is so valuable, because he's in tune to every one of those kind of environment situations you throw him into."

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 3,2004 SPORTS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 11A ur of eight weight in nt ens in ie ins ie ins as as as as iooing what what it be it be on a rrickrick whose those Texans coach sees playoff potential for team THE ASSOCIATED PRESS HOUSTON - A lot happened to Dom Capers in the six years between his ambitious start with the expansion Carolina Panthers and the renewal of his coaching career with the expansion Houston Texans. Capers led the Panthers within one victory of the Super Bowl in 1996, was fired two years later, rebuilt his reputation as a defensive coordinator with Jacksonville and got another — perhaps his final — chance to be a coach in Houston. The Texans (4-3) have won four of their last five, climbing above 500 for the first time in franchise history this late in a season. After dominating jacksonville on Sunday, Houston moved into a secondplace tie in the AFC South to confirm its status as a playoff contender. Capers is getting it right this time — with a lot of help. Pat Sullivan/AP Photo Starved for pro football after Bud Adams took the Oilers to Tennessee in 1996, Houston has fallen hard for Capers, owner Bob McNair and the team despite its early struggles. McNair has quickly become one of the NFL's power brokers, creating a buzz in the city and throughout the league that is fitting for the founder of one of the world's largest privately owned energy companies. He easily finessed the city into building the stadium — magnificent 71,054-seat Reliant Stadium — that Adams always wanted; convinced the NFL to bring the Super Bowl to Houston last January, and did such a good job hosting the game that the league intends to return; and, most importantly to fans, put the right people in charge of the football team. Though the on-field product has been slow to come around, McNair remained steadfast in his demand for a roster full of guys who rarely show up on a police blotter and are charitable to the media, fans and community. So far, McNair has made all the moves Carolina and plenty other expansion team owners should have made from the very start. No one knows that better than Capers. Dating back to the Dallas Cowboys in 1960, no modern expansion team in the NFL won more games in its first two seasons than the Panthers built by Capers, then-GM Bill Polian and owner Jerry Richardson. Carolina achieved success so quickly by loading up on established veterans, a plan that set up the Panthers for a quick downfall. The Panthers went 12-4 in 1996, won a playoff game and seemed poise for another strong season with second-year quarterback—and the franchise's first-ever draft pick — Kerry Collins leading the way. But Carolina got old too quickly, Collins struggled with an alcohol problem and the Panthers didn't have nearly enough young talent to remain a contender. Carolina's draft choices during that stretch like a who's who of first-round busts: Tim Biakabutuka in '96, Rae Carruth in '97 and Jason Peter in '98. started to descend." "What ended up happening is that we had a lot of veteran players on our team that really gave us good production the first two years," Capers said. "We weren't able to replace some of those veteran players, so it kind of worked against us. When the expectation level went up, we weren't quite as good and we Did they ever. The Panthers dropped to 4-12 in Capers' fourth season, his last in Charlotte. He spent the next two years as a defensive coordinator in Jacksonville and wondered if he'd got another chance to lead a team. The opportunity came in 2001 with the expansion Texans, a team that wouldn't even start playing for another year and a half. Armed with a laundry list of failures in Carolina, Capers sought a more patient route in Houston. He found a perfect match with McNair and Charley Casserly. "You have to build toward a window of opportunity." Capers said. "You're going to go through growing pains. It's a process and everyone has to be on board. We wanted to build a foundation, a basis. It was a good fit." Telex Together, they devised a plan that is a model for expansion teams, even those in other sports such as the NBA's Charlotte Bobcats. Cassery and Capers placed a bigger emphasis on the draft than free agency and refused to select anyone older than 30 years old in the expansion draft. They missed big on Jacksonville left tackle Tony Boselli, who never played a down for Houston and ultimately retired because of a nagging shoulder injury. But that draft also turned up current starters linebacker Jamie Sharper, defensive end Gary Walker, cornerback Aaron Glenn and safety Marcus Coleman. Houston Texans coach Dom Capers yells from the sidelines in the first half of the Texans' 27-20 loss to the San Diego Chargers on Sept. 12, in Houston. After surviving a brutal rookie season in which he was sacked a league-record 76 They also gambled on Fresno State's David Carr with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2002 draft. times, Carr has emerged as one of the league's top quarterbacks. Along with an improving offensive line, a top receiver in Andre Johnson and a talented back in Domanick Davis (a fourth-rounder in the 2003 draft), Houston has a young nucleus that could torment defenses for years. "We've got some good young players that anyone in the league would like to have," said Capers, smiling. "We've got more That's why Capers never panicked when the Texans lost their first two games, sending the local talk-radio shows and fans into a tizzy. Aided greatly by McNair and Casserly, Capers has a clear plan for the future. He realizes that to understand the plan, you have to look to the past. ascending players here than we had in Carolina." For now, at least, Carolina has never seemed so far away. Tiger Woods now 'one of the guys' THE ASSOCIATED PRESS But the biggest change was more subtle. ATLANTA — Tiger Woods does not play golf with a ring on his finger. That was the answer to the first question about how things might be different in his first tournament as a married man. Woods began his pro-am round at the Tour Championship on the 10th tee. He usually is the first one off on the first tee, a perk he has been afforded the last five years. But the first tee was occupied yesterday by Vijay Singh, who is firmly entrenched at No. 1 in the world. Then, Woods had to wait for Singh to finish his interview before he could step to the microphone. And once Woods finished talking about his three-week honeymono on a 150-foot yacht in the Caribbean, he was bombarded with questions about Singh — just like so many other players who for years grew weary talk about Woods. "He's played some just unbelievable golf this year," Woods said. "For him to play as much as he does and still maintain that edge, and as much as he practices, it's pretty impressive to do all that." Woods still has eight majors. He is the only professional to hold all four major championship trophies at the same time. He has won more tournaments than anyone else still playing. But he now is just one of the 31 players at the Tour Championship trying to end his year on a good note. Children still ran after him for his autograph when he arrived at East Lake. He still had more people in his gallery than any other players. If television ratings go up this week, Woods will be the reason Still, he now looks like one of the guys — and not just because he's married. The last time Woods and Singh played together was outside Boston on Labor Day, when the 41-year-old Fijian won a thrilling back-nine duel in the Deutsche Bank Championship to end Woods' five-year reign at No. 1 in the world. "The fear factor is gone," one caddie said on the practice range as he watched Woods warm up. astrous pairing with Phil Mickelson and another losing record in the Ryder Cup. He barely made it through 72 holes of the American Express Championship with a back injury. And he got married Oct. 5 in Barbados to Swedish nanny Elin Nordegren. And since becoming No. 1 in the world, Singh has won three times and was runner-up in his other PGA Tour start. It reminds Woods of the last time someone else was No. 1 in the world — David Duval, who won 11 times in 18 months and became the first man to shoot 59 in the final round of a PGA Tour event. Since then, Woods had a dis- "Everybody has a run," Woods said. "I had one. Duval had one. Johnny Miller, (Jack) Nicklaus, (Tom) Watson, everyone has their run. It's just a matter of how long can you continue. Fortunately for me, I lasted five years." Woods had such a good time in the Caribbean that he skipped Disney for the first time since turning pro, and he nearly called Let's see — he's on a private yacht with his Swedish bride, with no one to bother him but the U.S. Coast Guard. Why even bother coming back for one tournament? The question is how long Singh can keep this up — and whether Woods can come back. it a year by not playing in the Tour Championship. "Trust me," Woods said with a big grin. "That thought went through my head a lot of times." Eventually, the honeymoor has to end. "I miss competing." Woods said. "That's what I love to do." He hasn't been shown much love in return. Woods' only victory this year is the Accenture Match Play Championship at La Costa at the end of February. His drought in the majors is 10 and counting. He is No. 3 in the world ranking. No. 4 on the money list. But even on the open sea, Woods still found room for golf. "When I was on the boat, I was actually thinking about my game quite a bit and organizing my 'To Do' list — what causes what in the golf swing, and basically prioritizing what I needed to work on," Woods said. He thought his game was close before he got married. Woods was runner-up at Firestone to Stewart Cink. He was runner-up to Singh at Deutsche Bank. He was going for his third straight title in the American Express Championship until injuring his back. "I was so excited when I got over there, and then I couldn't move," Woods said. "I thought that the way I played in finishing ninth there, with limited ability to play the game, I thought I had a chance to come back and do some pretty good things." Woods has been saying all year his game is close, and not many believed him. Count Masters champion Phil Mickelson among those who do. Lefty came off his worst year on tour by winning his first major and coming within five shots of winning all four of them. "I got re-motivated, excited about working hard, came out and had a wonderful year," Mickelson said. "And I think that Tiger is going to do the same thing. I expect him to be the dominant force that he's been in the past." This being the present, about all Woods can do at East Lake is end a weak year on a strong note.

Rylan Howe/KANSAN BY JASON ELMOUIST jelmquist@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER For the first time in program history, the Kansas women's soccer team will be the top seed in the Big 12 Tournament. To start off the tournament, the Jayhawks will face the No. 8-seeded Iowa State Cyclones at 11 a.m. today at Blossom Soccer Stadium in San Antonio. Junior forward Caroline Smith recorded a season-high five points in the match, with two goals and an assist, and senior goalie Meghan Miller helped the Jayhawks record their 13th shutout of the season. They will face off against the same team they defeated just last week to clinch their share of the Big 12 title. In that contest, the Jayhawks dominated and came away with a 4-0 victory. Kansas tied Texas A&M for the best conference record at 8-2, but the Jayhawks get the top seed because of their 1-0 victory over the Aggies on Oct. 22 in College Station, Texas. Kansas was the third seed in last year's Big 12 Tournament and defeated Oklahoma in the first round, 1-0. In the semifinals, Kansas lost to Oklahoma State, 1-0. The Cowboys went on to defeat the Missouri Tigers in the finals. If Kansas advances beyond the first-round match against Iowa State, the Jayhawks will face the winner of the Nebraska-Texas match-up in Friday's semifinal. A late-season loss to the Longhorns helped prevent the Jayhawks from the winning the Big 12 title outright. The final round of the tournament is slated for 1 p.m. Sunday. www.kansan.com freshman defender Afton Sauer were named to the All-Big 12 second team. Sophomore midfielder Nicole Cauzillo and Sauer were named to the All-Big 12 Newcomer Team. Notes After the best regular season in Kansas soccer history, coach Mark Francis was named B 12 Coach of the Year. "It is nice to get that honor," Francis said. "It is great that the team and the players are getting that type of recognition, but we still have more to do this season." Several Jayhawk players also received individual honors. Senior goalkeeper Meghan Miller, junior forward Caroline Smith. freshman defender Holly Gault and senior midfielder Amy Geha were selected to the All-Big 12 first team.

"Injuries are part of college football." the season, he discussed the effect that injuries were having on the team. SEE FOOTBALL ON 10A Defense is strong, offense needs work The Jayhawks have accomplished impressive goals throughout the season: stopping the Wildcats' 11-game victory streak in the Sunflower Showdown, jumping out to a 2-0 start and coming dangerously close to defeating the high-powered Texas Tech Red Raiders. Kansas' defense has been pulling its weight lately, while the offense has been struggling. Unfortunately, that has not been enough to keep the 'Hawks afloat in a season that, with only three games remaining, looks to be shorter than the last. This year, it has been a mystery as to which side of the ball our guys will step up and play on. The defense has been phenomenal recently, especially against the Cyclones, who averaged only 2.6 yards per carry on Saturday thanks to an A+ game from the lajhawk defense. Defeating Iowa State and moving on to tougher Big 12 teams was an attainable goal, but for the second week in a row, Kansas' offense could not build up the scoring power that we have seen in previous contests in this same season. This is also the same defensive squad who, back in September, let the Red Raiders climb back from a 30-5 deficit. But in recent games, the defense has been doing its job much better than the offense. Of the four remaining Big 12 opponents Kansas had on its schedule before last Saturday, Iowa State seemed the best option for Barmann and company to break out of the rut that powerhouse Oklahoma left them in. Iowa State and Kansas were both 1-3 before going into their game, and it looked like a great time to shake that Big 12 road game losing streak, which is now at 13 consecutive losses. Starting quarterback Adam Barmann was sidelined early in the game, but short of scoring its own set of defensive touchdowns, the defense could not ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com SEVENTH INNING STRETCH SEVENTH LEAVING STRETCH Poor Luke seemed out of his element, as he was sacked three times and fumbled twice in not even a full quarter of play. Although the fayhawk defense did not give up a touchdown in the entire game, it is still impossible to win with those offensive. I am wondering how back-up quarterback Brian Luke managed to stay in the game so long. I understand Jason Swanson was battling an injury, but the biggest impact for Kansas' offense came after he filled the quarterback spot. have kept its offense anymore in the game. Despite the mounting frustration among the defense, it doesn't point any fingers at the weakening offense. This shows the unbreakable bond these guys have with each other, a bond that they know must remain strong to win the next three games. Linebacker Nick Reid surprised me when he said that the Jayhawks "Got to make more plays on defense, I guess," as stated in Monday's University Daily Kansan. --- This is the point in the season that teams could panic and let frustrations flood out, but not Kansas' team. The players admit their own weaknesses and vow to make them better. I admired Reid's comment, and the faith I have in the rest of the season stems from that. The Jayhawks have faltered on both sides of the ball earlier this season, but the defense has been stronger. And all the guys know the only way they can win is with each other.

The benefit aims to raise money for Bert Nash Community Mental Health Endowment. This year's event is called "An Evening with Ted Owens." Owens, a former basketball coach, is the guest of honor. Previous guests of honor include radio announcer Max Falkenstein and former football coach Don Fambrough. Owens said the invitation to be the guest of honor came as a surprise. The center invited Owens because of his dedication to the Lawrence community, said Scott McMichael, community development director. "I am honored to have the privilege to have coached at Kansas," Owens said. "It is a wonderful place. To be given a special night was wonderful." "Ted is well respected in the community not just as a basketball coach, but also in fundraising and community development." McMichael said. McMichael said that Owens helped the center make its services available to people outside Lawrence. The program will begin at 6 p.m., with a social hour that will last until 7 p.m. Some of the players and coaches have not seen each other in more than a decade, McMichael said. "People he has touched throughout the country will be attending," McMichael said. Owens said he had known the Jayhawks' current coach since Self's playing davs. Owens coached the Jayhawks from 1964 to 1983. His teams won six Big Eight Conference titles and made the postseason seven times. Owens coached the Jayhawks to Final Four appearances in 1971 and 1974. In 1968, the Jayhawks took second place in the NIT. Owens was the Big Eight coach of the year five times. Owens said he was looking forward to reuniting with his former associates. At 7 p.m., there will be a dinner, followed by speakers at 7:30 p.m. Basketball coach Bill Self and former basketball players Bud Stallworth, Roger Morningstar, Jo Joj White, Al Lopes and David Magley will speak. A 15-minute video highlighting Owens' 19-year coaching career will follow. "Bill was playing for Oklahoma State during my last year at Kansas, so I have been able to watch his success," Owens said. "Kansas has had some wonderful coaches, but he is going to be terrific." "What separates coach Owens from many other coaches is his commitment to a life-long relationship with his players," said former player Roger Morningstar. Owens said he planned to stay in Lawrence for a couple of days. He wants to attend Friday's basketball practice with some of his former players. He said he would also like to go to the football game on Saturday. "I was there for the K-State game this year and was at the Missouri game last year, so I have been spoiled with good football games every time I have been back." Owens said. McMichael said he expected about 400 to 500 people to attend the event. The ticket price is $125, and all proceeds go to the Bert Nash Community Center. In the past two years, the benefit has raised almost $100,000. McMichael said the benefit was a win-win situation. "I see them periodically, but not often enough," Owens said of his former players and coaching staff. "It is a pretty neat thing to get people back in Lawrence and support a great cause and honor a great guy." he said. - Edited by Bill Cross V 1 15 4 basketgether Bertney for st: five endaryears of neey for Health called Owens, e guest honor Max coach be the mmutch,but munity oughout reading, " 5 p.m., until 7 oaches are than Comedy Club orward ociates. but not this for- Check out tomorrow's University Daily Kansan for a comprehensive preview of the men's and women's basketball seasons. er, fol- p.m. former worth, alie, Al eak.

A few hours later, Kerry gave his concession speech in Boston on Faneuil Hall. "We talked about the danger of division in our country and the need — the desperate need — for unity, for finding common ground and coming together," Kerry said, describing his phone conversation with the president. "Today, I hope we can begin the healing." I am proud to see you be a winning team come together AN UNINFORMED POPULACE HAS HOSE THE WRONG MOW FOR THE JOBS By The Associated Press' count, Ohio's 20 electoral votes gave Bush 274 electoral votes — 270 were needed to secure a victory. Iowa and New Mexico remain undecided. Mark Joslyn, associate professor of political science, said Bush's victory would mean a continuation of his policies, especially with republican majorities in the House of Representatives and Senate. Chris Miller/KANSAN Chetan Michie, Manhattan sophomore, wrote on the "Thought Board" that was on Wescue Beach yesterday. The "Thought Board" was put up to encourage students to speak their minds. Joslyn said that because of the party's dominance in Washington, Bush would have a mandate from the people to get things done. He couldn't accuse a democratic Congress of holding him up. The candidates' morals and values were an important issue in this election, Joslyn said; exit polls conveyed that more people cited these issues as their deciding factors than any other issue. Of those voters, the vast majority voted for Bush, he said. Those constituencies included women, blacks and Catholics. "The really interesting thing about this election is that Bush did well with constituencies that are typically more democratic," he said. "I was on the edge of my seat" he said. He said that the composition of the Supreme Court, with one or two vacancies likely this presidential term, could take a more conservative turn. Joslyn said this election was a continuation of the the nation's trend toward a more prominent Republican Party, which has been growing stronger since Ronald Reagan's administration, beginning in 1980. Barker voted for the first time in this election. He sent an absentee ballot "I was on the edge of my seat," he said. Barker said he was afraid of what the next four years might bring, and worried about President Bush's hostile methods of attacking other nations. He was also concerned about a draft. Andrew Barker, Durham, N.C., freshman and Kerry supporter, was up until 3 a.m. yesterday waiting for the results of the presidential election. Thoughts of the day BY NIKOLA ROWE nrowe@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The day after the election, students on campus made their opinions known by scrawling them for everyone to see. An easel with brown paper taped to it, dubbed the "Thought Board," stood in front of Wesco Hall from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. yesterday. Members from the office of Student Involvement and Leadership Center set up the board to encourage students to communicate their thoughts on controversial subjects. Khalid Nabhan, Pittsburg senior, wrote "What's a brown piece of paper going to do?" "I see people just writing what they feel," Nabhan said. "A good way to change something is to take action." Nabhan, whose family is originally from Iraq, said he wished everyone could see what was happening in Iraq. "More hurt is being done than good," Nabhan said. At 11:45 a.m. a new paper had to be pinned up because both sides of the original paper were loaded with writings and more people wanted to share their comments. "Students aren't bashful to speak their minds, and that's a good deal," said Aaron Quisenberry, associate director of the Student Involvement and Leadership Center. Jimmy Glavin, Overland Park sophomore, wrote "What is more important: being free or being rich?" Glavin said a part of being in a democracy was to question your government. "I'm skeptical of the whole thing, so I have a lot to say." Glavin said. After Glavin wrote his opinion, Eric Williams, Wichita sophomore, decided he had something to write, too. Williams wrote that the opportunity to voice opinions was a good idea, but it was hateful comments that stood out more to him. "A lot of stuff written is written out of frustration." Williams said. "So, it doesn't represent the whole campus." Most comments were about the election, but others were about tuition increases, seating at basketball games and even about being glad to go home for Thanksgiving. Edited by Marissa Stephenson home to North Carolina. "I was excited to actually have a vote that would count, after knowing in the past I wasn't able to," he said. "I felt that in this election especially, it was going to make a huge difference." Korey Black, Overland Park freshman, said he knew from the start it would be a close election, and at one point Tuesday night, he thought the race could have ended up with a 269-269 tie in the electoral vote. He said it was good for Kerry to concede the election yesterday morning. Black also voted for the first time on Tuesday. "It was a very gentlemanly thing he did," he said. "Nothing's worse than not knowing who the president of the United States is." "It gave me a huge sense of pride," he said. cession. Parro did not vote but stayed up late watching the results come in. He said he thought the economy would get better in the next four years and things would improve in Iraq. "Things are going to start to look up over there," he said. "I think Bush is going to get the troops out." Brian Parro, Chicago senior and a Bush supporter, was happy with the con- - The Associated Press contributed to this story.

Similar bans passed by larger margins in Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Ohio and Utah. They watched Tuesday night as 11 states passed ballot measures against The couple differs from most who plan to marry because both are men. David Ta lives with his fiance. The couple started dating eight months ago. "Oregon had a chance," said Ta, Wichita sophomore and director of Queers and Allies. With Republicans controlling the presidency, Senate and House, Ta wanted Democrats to give them a fight. He said it hurt that people voted based on morality. He said he hoped people would realize gay marriage was not a threat. Amanda Tate, St. Louis senior, said she did not agree with the idea of gay marriage. Tate serves as president for the Campus Crusade for Christ. "They're not in our shoes, so how would they know how we feel?" Ta asked. "I think it's Biblically based," Tate said of marriage. "God created Adam and Eve, a man and a woman." www.kansan.com Tate said she believed marriage should be a commitment among a man, a woman and God. She did not know what would follow if gays and lesbians were allowed to marry, she said, and marriage between family members might be next. Tate feels strongly about the issue but said she was conflicted. --- SEE MARRIAGE ON PAGE 5A Candidate # of Votes ELECTION RESULTS Scholarship hall development Editors' note: Here are the official results of Tuesday night's elections as compiled from news services and government Web sites. ★ George Bush (i) ... 58,943,826 ■ John Kerry ... 55,356,179 ■ Ralph Nader ... 394,578 U.S. House of Representatives U.S. Senate ★ Sam Brownback (I) ... 770,317 ★ Lee Jones ... 365,226 ★ Steven Rosile ... 21,026 ★ George Cook ... 15,453 **District 2** ★ Jim Ryun (I) 162,134 ■ Nancy Boyda 119,057 ■ Dennis Hawver 7,391 **District 3** ★ Dennis Moore (I) 177,525 ■ Kris Kobach 141,302 ■ Joe Bellis 3,064 ■ Richard Wells 2,813 State Senate Financial flexibility District 2 ★ Marci Francisco ...15,614 ■ Mark Buhler (i) ...13,496 ■ Jim Mullins ...1,968 District 3 ★ Roger Pine ...17,791 ■ Jan Justice ...16,533 State House of Representatives Student Senate voted to have more spending flexibility last night.

Rapper's death draws debate THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Police yesterday were investigating whether the fatal shooting of an underground rap star resulted from his decision not to perform at a party where he had been billed as a headline attraction. But they got little cooperation, they said, from the associates of Andre Hicks, the Californian rapper known as Mac Dre. Only two of the 12 to 15 members of Hicks' entourage have talked with police, Homicide Sgt. Barb Eckert said Tuesday. "They hid in their hotel rooms and would not answer the door." Eckert Eckert said Hicks was in town from Sacramento, Calif., for a series of weekend concerts and appearances. Hicks, 34, was killed early Monday when a vehicle pulled beside the van he was in on U.S. 71 and began shooting. said. "Then they flew back to California." She said a local promoter rented out a private club, the Atlantic Star, sold tickets for $15 to $20, and distributed fliers saying Hicks would perform there Sunday night. But the rapper was not paid to perform and only stayed at the party for 30 minutes, she said. "Several people wanted their money back." Eckert said. "We heard there may have been a confrontation there." Police think Hicks left the party about 10:30 p.m. Sunday; the shooting was about five hours later. "We know something happened that made someone mad." Eckert said. In the early 1990s, police began investigating Hicks and several associates who were suspected of being members of the Vallejo, Calif.'s Romper Room Gang, which was suspected in a string of bank and business robberies. Hicks was eventually charged in federal court with conspiracy to commit bank robbery after he and several others were arrested while preparing to rob a bank.

Rieger Scholarship Hall UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN THE EDUCATION OF HUMANS Hall's exterior almost complete Ginny Weatherman/KANSAN Dennis E. Rieger Scholarship Hall construction is about 25 percent completed. The hall is being built in a Queen Anne, turn-of-the-century architectural style. Workers ready themselves for bad weather By Ross Fitch fitch@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Construction of the Dennis E. Rieger Scholarship Hall is about 25 percent completed, said John Eye, project manager for the University of Kansas Design and Construction Management office. Construction inside the building has not started. "The goal is to have the building enclosed and weather-proofed by the time bad weather hits." Eve said. The future women's scholarship hall was divided into five broad building stages; earthwork, foundations, framing, waterproofing and finishes. The third and final story is being framed, Eye said. In April 2004, Roger Rieger and his wife, Annette, funded the building's entire cost with a $3 million donation, said John Scarfe, director of communications for the Kansas University Endowment Association. Roger and Annette are University alumni. Their donation is in honor of Roger's late brother Dennis, after whom the hall is named. Dennis was also a University alumnus. Bad weather usually start about Nov. 1 and continue through winter break, so the construction team has been lucky so far, he said. If bad weather does hit, the construction team will use temporary protection such as blue tarps and heaters so work can proceed inside the building. Dennis was a true Jayhawk, and this honor seemed appropriate. Annette said. "We thought he would like to be remembered in this way," she said. Annette said she and Roger decided to donate money for a scholarship hall because they were both alumni, and it just seemed to fit them. Roger also lived in a scholarship hall, and he had a good experience there, she said. The Dennis E. Rieger Scholarship Hall is part of the KU First; Invest in Excellence campaign. He really enjoyed the collaborative cooking work, the camaraderie among the residents and the long history of scholarship halls at the University. When the University formed the list of projects to be included in the campaign, the Department of Student Housing requested an additional two scholarship halls, said Ken Stoner, director of student housing. Stoner said the scholarship halls had waiting lists between 50 and 100 people each school year. The University approved Rieger Scholarship Hall and "T he goal is to have the building John Eye enclosed and weather-proofed by the time bad weather hits." Project manager for the University of Kansas Design and Construction Management office representatives from the Oread Neighborhood Association, the Campus Historic Preservation Board and the Lawrence Historic Resource Commission. another scholarship hall, designed to be built mirroring Rieger Hall on north end. Construction of the second scholarship hall is on hold until a donor provides funding. A steeply pitched and irregular roof with an overall asymmetrical house shape is typical of the Victorian Queen Anne style. Stoner said all the members of the committees agreed with the style selection. Queen Anne style details were included in the design, but the hall will still be a modern building. Eve said. One concern was that the design of the new hall, located at 1523 Ohio Street, reflect the neighborhood's character. The women's scholarship hall will house 50 students and will open in Fall 2005. "We've got prospects, but nothing solid right now." Scarfie said. "We will try as long as it's a priority for the University." The result was a Queen Anne, turn-of-the-century architectural style. Many committees offered input on the building's design, including a University building committee, which Stoner serves as chairman, and a community advisory committee, including When completed, it will be the 11th scholarship hall at the University. Edited by Marissa Stephenson Senate approves funding flexibility By LAURA FRANCEVILLE francoviglia@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WINTER More money to be allocated for conferences With Student Senate having more than $110,000 sitting in its unallocated account, the finance committee voted to allow more flexibility in spending last night. Because of the surplus this year, Jeff Dunlap, student body vice president, said the finance committee should not under-utilize its funds. The guideline change will affect student groups who ask for money to pay for conference registration fees. The change will give more flexibility to groups asking for money to pay for conferences, said Dunlap, Leawood senior. The change now takes into account travel costs. As it stood, the guideline for funding conferences said Senate would pay for registration fees more than $1,000 at 50 percent. Last night, the Black Student Union benefited from the guideline change. The group asked for $5,850 to pay for the annual Big 12 Conference on Black Student Government. Alicia McDougal, Black Student Union president, said the funding from Senate would cut costs and allow more students to attend. The money will go toward sending 65 KU students to the conference. The conference will be at the University of Colorado at Boulder next February. Without the change to the guideline, Dunlap said the group would have only received about $3.000. Dunlap said the change would help more groups attend "T he money is there. Our number one goal should be to benefit students and student groups." Jeff Dunlap Student body vice president conferences in the future The following bills passed through the Student Senate committees last night. "The money is there." Dunlap said.

NOVEMBER 4,2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN www.kansan.com EDITORIAL BOARD Students must question federal drinking age laws You cannot purchase or consume alcoholic beverages if you were not born before today's date 21 years ago. Sound familiar? The state of Kansas embarrassed itself when it tried to set a nationwide precedent by banning evolution from public school teachings. That flopped. This act prohibits any state to lower its drinking age below 21. If a state chose to go against the act, then the federal government would reduce its funding for state highways and transportation. The University of Kansas Political Activist Club understands the societal implications this law has had on minors. The state of Kansas, along with the other 49 states, should listen to the group's 300 members and lobby the federal government to repeal the 20-year-old law. The American society obviously wants to view people at the age of 18 as adults. But why should these "adults" have to wait three more years before they can drink legally with all the other adults? Responsibly drinking is not a more delicate responsibility than the other responsibilities society grants 18 year olds. Upon turning 18, you can move out of your house and claim yourself independent from your parents. You can fight in a war and vote for the president who will send you to war. You can buy a house. You can change your name. Society allows you to watch an R-rated movie without parent permission four years before age 21. And you can drive a car by yourself for as many as five years before 21. Affording 18 to 20-year-old adults a legal opportunity to purchase or consume alcohol would not cause an increase in alcohol-related accidents. Lowering the drinking age would allow people to learn responsibility early, and perhaps under the supervision of parents. Now, college students away from home celebrate their 21st birthday with drinking marathons that bring them as close to their limit as possible. Prohibition creates irresponsibility instead of responsibility. Many students at the University of Kansas who are of legal age abuse their legal alcohol-consuming privilege by binge drinking and driving under the influence. Meanwhile cops continue to deal with unruly, alcohol-thirsty minors, who just binge drink because it is risky and daring. The Lawrence police, according to its media relations department, issued 52 minors in possession from January 2003 to July 2004. Fifty-two KU students multiplied by the other 325 Division I NCAA schools would bring the total number of MIPs to 16,900 students nationwide. Are the costs of this legal and police action worth it? These numbers do not help society. Prohibition of any magnitude does not work in this country, especially among 18 to 20 year-old college students. Join the activist group members in January as they lobby the state legislature to end the Drinking Age Act of 1984. After all, those politicians hiding voiceless behind that federal law have remained in power because of your adult responsibility of voting.

Here we go. WBenson Wes Benson/KANSAN Sheltered youth kill Diddy's goals STEVE SPEAKS P. Diddy has got a lot of killing to do. P. Diddy has got a lot of killing to do. After warning young voters to "vote or die" throughout the election cycle, it appears that the demographic he tried to persuade signed their own death warrant in last night's election. CNN reported Tuesday night that exit polls indicated that number of young voters participating in the election remained largely unchanged from previous years, even though overall turnout was dramatically higher than years past 10 It goes to show that anyone can get young people to register, but it doesn't necessarily mean they'll vote. The disappointing turnout was a stout kick to the Kerry campaign groin — a campaign that repeatedly said a huge turnout would amount to his victory. It only amounted to a sizeable advantage in the popular vote for President George W. Bush. STEVE VOCKRODT svockrodt@kansan.com There may be no clear answer as to exactly why young voters refuse to vote in adequate numbers, but part of the answer may lie in the extremely closed political culture America's youth lives in. The pre-election day hype was marked in part by the numbers of celebrities — actors, musicians and one huge wannabe documentary maker — who pushed their fans and cohorts to go to the voting booths. The unfortunate aspect of the entire voter drive was the outlets it was played upon. MTV is where many of these musicians — Springsteen, Green Day, R.E.M. MTV also plays host to several political action committees that advertise heavily on its channel and Web site. Moveon.org and Rock The Vote are two that come to mind. But behind both those organizations' thin guise of promoting all votes, it was clear that the message was America's youth should vote for Kerry. The front page of MoveOn's Web site carries articles with one-sided diatribes about how the war in Iraq was unjustified, the mythical conservative auspices of FoxNews and links to anti-Bush Web sites. Perhaps both organizations, along with MTV, shouldn't operate under the silly idea that it wants youth to just vote, but they should come right out and said VOTE FOR KERRY. They are another in a line of one-sided productions from the left that refuse to allow viewers to think otherwise. With Fahrenheit 9/11, Outfoxed and Dan Rather, it's a propaganda all its own. The danger in this, as in all propaganda, is it creates a vacuum in which its subjects operate and think within. The University of Kansas is a bit like this with an overwhelmingly liberal culture that repudiates opposition. Voter registration drives on campus are left in the hands the Young Democrats, and The University Daily Kansan itself reported about Bush supporters watching the election being ridiculed. If you took it all in without even bothering to consider the other side of the issue, you certainly would have thought Kerry was going to win, no matter what. News reports of election watchers throughout Lawrence reflected this. Perhaps that's why college age voters didn't vote as they were expected to. They figured someone else had done the job. Early exit polls said Kerry was up, so why bother? It's always better to take a hard look at the other side. The information is out there, but too few are looking unless it directly benefits their ideology. Learning more about what your opposition says and does will usually cement one's own view in their own candidate. The silliness of Michael Moore, Dan Rather, John Kerry and popular culture directed towards people my age guaranteed my vote for our President for the next four years.

It's not every day that a world-renowned linguist and cognitive psychologist speaks to the KU community. We appreciate your style — how you are able to convey linguistic theories with wit and humor. We think it's cool that you are on both MulletlSovers.com and Time's list of the 100 most influential people in the world today. The six books you've written are augmented by the large quantity of essays and columns published in USA Today, The New York Times and other popular print media. Not many scholars can transcend academic boundaries and appeal to a popular audience. FRIENDSHIP APRIL BENSON AND LAUREN STEWART opinion@kansan.com Plus, you have great Willy Wonkaesque hair. To put it succinctly, we are fans. Steven Pinker, you are our personal language hero. Sincerely. The Language Rules! columnists All silliness aside, it is rather remarkable that Steven Pinker lectured in the Lied Center last week. After teaching and conducting research at MIT for many years, Pinker is now a professor at Harvard University. The Hall Center for the Humanities is responsible for his University of Kansas appearance, where he discussed theories from his latest book, The Blank Slate. His recent work focuses on the continuing debate of "nature vs. nurture." Pinker re-examines the prevailing modern attitude that human behaviors and capabilities depend more on environment than biology. What does this all have to do with language? The Blank Slate is the latest entry in Pinker's course of study concerning human nature. Throughout his career, he has investigated the innateness of language as part of this pursuit. In his 1994 book on language acquisition, The Language Instinct, Pinker notes, "Language is not a cultural artifact that we learn the way we learn to tell time or how the federal government works. Instead, it is a distinct piece of the biological makeup of our brains." To Pinker, language is natural — as natural and unique to humans as web- spinning is to spiders (an analogy he makes in The Language Instinct). This makes sense. Would our grasp of language be as complete if we didn't have some inborn capacities for it? People certainly are not just spitting out repetitions of word patterns they have heard before. Humans have an endless capacity to make new word combinations and arrangements. Some sort of human faculty allows us the opportunity to say sentences that have never been spoken before, yet still convey meaning in context. Thus, humans have tremendous knowledge of and power over their language, juggling concepts and creating and using new words, phrases and sentences. Pinker calls 3 a-year-old a "grammatical genius" because he or she is able to use many word-formation strategies. The Blank Slate examines the idea of our innate linguistic command in a broader scope. Whether you agree with Pinker that humans do not begin as a "blank slate," to be shaped by outside forces, his lecture and theories open up new ways of thinking about thinking. And we have to admit, he has great hair. Benson is a Grand Island, Neb., senior in English and music. Stewart is a Wichita senior in English.

Republicans maintained a 30-10 majority in the Senate after Tuesday's elections. Republicans picked up three seats in the House, boosting its majority to 83-42. It wasn't clear early yesterday how receptive the new Legislature will be to raising taxes for education once it convenes Jan. 10. The issue dominated the 2004 session and could play an equally big role next year, after legislators receive an expected ruling from the Kansas Supreme Court on a lawsuit challenging the state's school finance system. In the 2nd Senate District, Democrat Marci Francisco, a "It's important that our voices are heard compared to the conservative voices across Kansas."

Larry Salmans, R-Hanston, in the 36th District to win her fifth term. Redistricting of Senate seats following the 2000 Census pitted the two incumbents in a However, Republicans picked up a seat in Wichita, where challenger Mike Peterson defeated incumbent Democratic Sen. Henry Helgerson. Late in the campaign, Republics questioned whether Helgerson actually lived in the district, but Democrats said he did. Republicans also picked up one seat in a newly created district in Johnson County. In the House, the defeated incumbents included one who voted in May against a proposed constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage: Rep. Jan Scoggins-Waite of Dodge City, defeated by Republican challenger Pat George of Dodge City by a 2-1 margin. Other successful challengers were Republican Virgil Peck of Tyro, ousting Democrat incumbent Rep. Jim Miller of Coffeville, and Democrat Mark Treaster of Pretty Prairie, defeating Republican Rep. Mary Kauffman of Hutchinson. Meanwhile, voters in districts with open seats said they were looking for new voices in state government. Jim Kemp, 35, a Lawrence business owner, said the Legislature needed balance, including more liberals. He voted for Democrat Jan Justice of Linwood in the 3rd District Senate race, an open seat. The seat was won by Lawrence farmer Roger Pine, keeping the seat Republican. "It's important that our voices are heard compared to the conservative voices across Kansas," Kemp said. Democrats last held control of the Kansas House in 1992 and held the Senate last in 1916. All 165 legislative seats were to be filled, with contested races on the ballot in 32 Senate districts and 66 House districts. Moore continues reign in 3rd District THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TOPEKA — Democratic Rep. Dennis Moore's comfortable reelection victory rested on an unusually strong showing in Johnson County, suggesting Republican challenger Kris Kobach alienated many GOP moderates. Moore had 55 percent of the vote in the 3rd District, with final, unofficial results posted yesterday. Kobach had 44 percent, with two minor party candidates splitting the remaining vote. Moore carried Johnson County — the first time he'd done that in four congressional races — even though registered Republicans outnumber Democrats there by more than 2-1. It was Moore's widest margin of victory in a 3rd District contest. Kobach had identified himself as a conservative before securing a narrow victory in the August Republican primary, and Moore attacked him as too conservative for the district. "In general, he was just too far to the right to be attractive to that whole bloc of moderates," said Steve Cloud, a former Kansas House member from Lenexa who serves on the Republican National Committee. In other congressional races, Republican Sen. Sam Brownback and GOP Reps. Jerry Moran, Jim Ryun and Todd Tiahrt all won comfortable victories. The Moore-Kobach contest had been viewed as highly competitive, and many Republicans viewed Moore as vulnerable because the district leans Republican. Moore captured his seat in 1998 with 52 percent of the vote but received only 50 percent in 2000 and 2002. Dwight Sutherland, a Mission Hills attorney and conservative activist, said many registered Republicans in the 3rd District who identify themselves as moderates are really closet Democrats. "A lot of the socially moderate Republicans are walking away from the party," Sutherland said. "Kris is a good candidate, but Dennis is lucky and he worked the district." In conceding the race, Kobach told supporters that his campaign was about principles such as opposing abortion, supporting an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to ban gay marriage and doing more to combat terrorism. Kobach, 38, a former U.S. Justice Department official from Overland Park, also made immigration policy and national security key issues. He attacked Moore, 58, of Lenexa, for voting against the use of National Guard troops along U.S. borders, a position Moore suggested was too extreme for the district. Mark Simpson, executive director of the state Democratic Party, said Kobach's campaign themes did not play well with moderate voters. "I think the district is moderate, so I don't think a conservative will win it," Simpson said. Sutherland disagreed that Kobach was too conservative for the district, noting that Republican registration has increased more than 16,000 in Johnson County since the year began. However, he said Moore's attacks on Kobach as an extremist took their toll. "They managed to turn him into a caricature of an uneducated redneck," Sutherland said, noting that Kobach is a UMKC law professor with degrees from Harvard, Yale and Oxford universities. While Moore has needed votes from moderate Republicans to win, he's depended in past races on racking up big margins while carrying Democratic strongholds in Douglas and Wyandotte counties. Those margins have allowed him to prevail despite losing Johnson County. However, this year, Moore won Johnson County by nearly 5,400 votes out of about 248,000 cast. Uncertainties fill U.S.'s future in Iraq THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON - It could be a tough next four years in Iraq for President Bush, depending in part on the outcome of a planned U.S. attack on the insurgents' stronghold at Fallujah. Will a renewed U.S. offensive break the back of the insurgency? "This is a George Bush project, and it's going to stay that way," said Michael O'Hanlon, a military analyst at the Brookings Institution. He expects little new help from other nations, and thinks Bush will soon begin talking more openly about an Iraq exit strategy. Hungary's announcement yesterday that it won't keep its troops in Iraq beyond next March underscores another uncertainty: Whether international support for the war, military or otherwise, will grow or shrink. In his victory speech yesterday, Bush mentioned bringing the troops home. The answers to those questions will go a long way in determining when the Bush administration might be able to substantially reduce the number of U.S. troops in Iraq — and foresee an end to its huge financial investment — without risking Iraq's collapse into civil war. Bush said throughout the election campaign that if given a second term he intended to remain on the same course in Iraq, hoping to stabilize the country despite a U.S. death toll that already exceeds 1,100 and has averaged two American deaths every day since an interim Iraqi government was installed in late June. "We'll help the emerging democracies of Iraq and Afghanistan so they can grow in strength and defend their freedom, and then our service men and women will come home with the honor they have earned," the president said. The United States has about 142,000 troops in Iraq now, roughly the same as one year ago. The Pentagon recently raised the possibility of reducing that number after Iraq holds its first elections in January, assuming the Pentagon can increase the ranks of U.S.-trained Iraqi troops. A fresh contingent of U.S. forces will enter Iraq over the coming few months, replacing troops who are completing their one-year tours. In a reminder of the unexpected duration of this war and the strain it has placed on the military, the Army's 3rd Infantry Division, which fought the opening stages of the war in 2003, is going back for a second tour. Getting within sight of an end to U.S. military involvement has been stalled by at least two problems Bush did not anticipate when he launched the March 2003 invasion of Iraq: A creative, shadowy and tenacious insurgency, and setbacks in building a reliable Iraqi security force. Those two issues have important military dimensions. But they cannot be overcome by the use of force alone, says Army Maj. Gen. Barbara Fast, who was intelligence chief for the U.S. military command in Baghdad during an earlier phase of the war. She says more economic, political and information efforts are needed to complement the role of U.S. and coalition troops. Fast and other senior officers have said the United States and its coalition partners must communicate more clearly to ordinary Iraqis that they must stand up to the insurgents, take responsibility for rebuilding their own country and realize the United States cannot do it for them. "It's as much about perception as it is about (military) wins and losses on the ground," Fast told a recent Army conference. In a similar vein, O'Hanlon of the Brookings Institution said: "Either one — Bush or Kerry — despite all this campaign talk about staying the course would have had to recognize pretty soon that our presence in Iraq is part of the problem. It's necessary, but it's also part of the problem. Therefore a strategy to get out is actually useful, and it's not a sign of weakness." Voting is good, drinking is better.

Arafat's condition deteriorating THE ASSOCIATED PRESS --- PARIS — Yasser Arafat's condition has deteriorated significantly during the past day, and doctors treating him at a Paris hospital remain unsure what has caused the 75-year-old Palestinian leader's illness, Palestinian officials said today. The Palestinian sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed an Israeli TV report that Arafat was in very serious condition. They said details would be disclosed at a previously planned news conference scheduled for today at 11 a.m. Arafat, who has been ill for three weeks, was flown to a French military hospital on Friday after passing out briefly at his West Bank headquarters. Mohammed Dahlan, a former Palestinian security chief in Paris with a group of Arafat aides, denied, however, that Arafat's condition has worsened. "The president's condition is stable," he told reporters. Arafat initially was said to have been suffering a severe case of influenza, but later was diagnosed with having blood abnormalities and trouble with his digestion. Palestinian officials insist leukemia has been ruled out, but say doctors remain uncertain what is causing Arafat's illness. In Israel Channel Two television said the Palestinian leader was moved to an intensive care unit at the French military hospital outside Paris. Earlier, the Palestinian envoy to France, Leila Shahid, said Arafat felt well enough to ask about the U.S. presidential election. An aide later issued a statement in Arafat's name congratulating President Bush on his reelection. Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said Israel is closely monitoring the health of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat and is preparing for the "day after" his death. "We are tracking his condition very carefully," he told Israel Radio. "Our goal is to prepare for the day after, if and when he dies." Israeli intelligence was widely criticized after it was caught off guard last week when Arafat's health suddenly deteriorated and he was flown to Paris for treatment. Although no details are known about Arafat's ailment. Shalom said his condition "is very serious." At the same time, he said, "it is too soon to eulogize Yasser Arafat," and Israel expected the picture to become clearer within the week. Israel believes Arafat may have cancer, or possibly a serious infection, he said. "We are preparing for every eventuality." he said. Initial blood tests performed while Arafat was still in Ramallah in the West Bank revealed a low blood platelet count. Platelets are blood components that aid clotting. Physicians gave Arafat a platelet transfusion shortly after he was urgently transported from his battered Ramallah headquarters to the Percy military hospital southwest of Paris on Friday. Jury convicts former Enron executives THE ASSOCIATED PRESS HOUSTON — A jury convicted four one-time Merrill Lynch executives and a former midlevel Enron Corp. finance executive of conspiracy and fraud yesterday in the first criminal trial of Enron and Wall Street executives for their role in the energy company's 2001 collapse. The deal at the center of the charges involved a bogus sale of interest in power plants mounted on barges to the brokerage at the end of 1999 so the company could appear to have met earnings targets. The barge case marked the first time Wall Street bankers were charged with active participation in a criminal Enron scheme. While Enron's former auditor, Arthur Andersen LLP was convicted more than two years ago of obstruction of justice for destroying Enron documents before the collapse, the barge case was the first to involve former Enron employees as defendants. Among those convicted of conspiracy and two counts of wire fraud was Merrill's former head of investment banking, Daniel Bayly. The others were James A. Brown, former head of Merrill's asset lease and finance group; William Fuhs, a vice president who reported to Brown; Robert S. Furst, a former manager of Merrill's relationship with Enron; and Dan O. Boyle, a former Enron finance executive. A sixth defendant, a former in-house Enron accountant, was acquitted. 'The Simpsons' returns to television as durable as ever THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES — Bart Simpson is acting like himself, which is to say naughty. And he sounds like himself, with that familiar mischievous lilt. But Bart's voice is coming out of a petite blonde wearing a fluffy, bright-pink wrap. Dumpy Homer has morphed into a lanky fellow, and mom Marge's toowering purple hair is brown and tastefully cropped. The event was a "table read," when the cast of The Simpsons gathered with a roomful of writers, producers and guests, using their imaginations to conjure up the animated family with the distinctive mustard hue. It was just one of the steps toward crafting an episode of the Fox series that begins its 16th season Sunday. The run is remarkable for any show — but especially for one like this. Irreverent, witter and willing to take on anything from politics to religion to family values. The Simpsons has provided a rare bit of spice for the oatmeal-bland bowl of TV broadcasting. The table read, held in an oversize trailer at the Twentieth Century Fox studio where the series is produced, itself is a symbol of the show's enduring popularity. A decade ago, it finished the season as the 67th most-watched show; it was No. 69 last season with 10.7 million viewers and won its time period among the coveted 18 to 49 age group. Actors, producers and writers sit at a massive conference table littered with water bottles and note pads. Invitation-only visitors ring the table. "It's sort of the hottest ticket on the lot," said Yeardley Smith, who voices young Lisa, the wise Simpson daughter. Ullman's Fox series. "I'll look around and go, Hey, there's Elvis Costello," said Al Jean, an executive producer who's been with the series since it was spun off in December 1989 from Tracey Singer-songwriter Costello, who provided his voice for one episode, popped up at the table read for another. "People often come for the fun and bring their children," Jean said. It's a treat for observers but serious work for the cast and producers. This is the first time a script has been performed after months of writing and revision. This particular week it's also the first time the actors have seen the script. Finished at the last minute, it couldn't be provided until the cast arrived at the studio for the rehearsal last Thursday. The assembled performers include Smith; Dan Castellaneta, who received his third Emmy this year for voicing Homer and whose other characters include Krusty the clown and Grampa Simpson; Nancy Cartwright as Bart; Julie Kavner as Marge; and Harry Shearer. who does an array of voices including Ned Flanders and Mr. Burns. Absent is Hank Azaria, who was in New York rehearsing a new musical. Azaria's characters, including convenience store owner Apu and police Chief Wiggum, are voiced for now by another actor. They're working on an episode that won't air until next season, typical for a labor-intensive animated series. A roughly 21-minute episode takes about nine months to create, including the animation work done domestically and in South Korea. In the script at hand, Marge and Bart are engaged in unusual mother-son bonding, breezing through Springfield on a tandem bicycle and singing Sweet Home Alabama. Marge: "I can't remember our last outing together." Bart: "It was to see that court-appointed psychiatrist." never have let you near that letter opener." Marge: "Oh yeah. He should The actors move briskly through their lines and most of the jokes draw guffaws from the room. But one shaggy-haired figure proves a tough customer, rarely even smiling — series creator and executive producer Matt Groening. "He's not an easy laugh, so when you get a laugh out of him you feel like, 'Yes!' It's a big deal," Smith said. After all these years, Jean has developed his own script shorthand: a check mark for a joke that gets a laugh, an "X" for one that falls flat. "Somewhat that's sweet but doesn't necessarily get a huge laugh will stay in," jean said. After all these years "it's a fairly well-oiled machine," observed Smith. Actors who are out of town, like Azaria, can record their lines at a convenient studio. When the cast is finished the animators step in. The Los Angeles-area animation house Film Roman creates a black-and-white draft, called an animated, which reveals what works and what doesn't, Jean said. "Sometimes we do a considerable rewrite with the animatic. Once it's in color, the cost of changing too much is prohibitive," he said. The revised animatica is sent to South Korea for creation of the final version. No matter what changes, though, the characters stay the same. "It's a bratty boy and a sensitive, intellectual girl and a dumb but well-meaning husband and a wife who's sweet and knows a little better than him," said lean. Just how durable is The Simpsons, which has the cast signed through season 19? There will be a 20th season at least, Jean figures, allowing it to match Gunsmoke as the longest-running scripted show in primetime. kansan.com THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN PRESENTS Gay Play Live NOVEMBER 11TH AT THE GRANADA NEW HOME SAME GREAT SOUND Located Next to Best Buy Texas Jack's LIQUOR Game Day Specials!

He has a roster of big men that coaches usually only dream about. He has four players competing for the right to start next to senior forward Wayne Simien. Junior forward Christian Moody and three freshmen — Darnell Jackson, C.J. Giles and Sasha Kaun — are all auditioning for plaving time in the post. Self said all of the guys had practiced well to date, and practice this week should determine who earns the starting honors. "We could start Christian Moody. We could start Sasha or Darnell, depending on how this thing plays out," Self said. "They have all done well, and all of them showed flashes of doing great, but nobody has outplayed anybody else." Self said he was not hung up on who would start Sunday because it would most likely not be indicative of the regular season starting rotation. All of the potential starters will play as part of a nine- or 10-man rotation, but because injuries had prevented some players from practicing, Self said he didn't know whom he would go with on Sunday. GILES KAUN (1) Self should welcome this situation after last season, when depth in the post was a problem and foul trouble plagued the Jayhawks. He can play several different rotations because each of the big men are capable of contributing. Everyone on JACKSON the team expects that all three freshmen playing in the post will make an impact this year, but each has the ability to do so in a different way. P. R. "They all three will do well this year." Moody said. "But they all have different skill that shine above others at times." Kaun, at 6-foot-11, has the biggest body, is the best rebounder and has been the most consistent in practice, Self said. Kaun's size could be an advantage on the defensive side of the ball, where he could be matched up with an opposing team's center. MOODY This would allow Simien to match up against a power forward, creating a size advantage for Simien. Jackson's flashes of greatness have come in transition passing. Self and his players have echoed the same praise: this kid can pass the rock. Giles s advantage could come from his ath- letitium and ability to create his own shot, an element that Kansas lacked last year from its post players. When Simien faced double teams, the Jayhawks didn't have another offensive threat in the post. Giles, who has his weight up to about 235 pounds after losing 15 pounds because of food poisoning, has shown offensive potential, Self said. Senior guard Mike Lee agreed that Giles had a knack for finding opportunities to score. "C.J. does a great job of being real active," Lee said. "He's athletic and can get off the ball pretty quick and create a lot of shots, and he gets up and down the floor real well." Mmoody, the veteran of the group, has the advantage of simply understanding the system better than the freshmen. Self said he was the best perimeter defender of the post players, but at 6-7 and 205 pounds, he is the smallest, which would force Simien to guard an opponent's center. Sunday's game will be an opportunity for the freshmen and some of the reserve players to show what they can do against another team. Self has said that because of injuries, he would try to limit the play of Simien, senior guard Keith Langford and sophomore guard J.R. Giddens if the Jayhawks had a significant lead. So it is likely that all of the freshmen except Alex Galindo will see significant minutes. Self said that above all, he wanted the freshmen to play sound basketball. "What they need to do is guard and rebound, reverse the ball and screen," Self said. "If they do those things they are going to have the chance to play a lot. They don't have to be the go-to guy. They just have to help the team get better, and doing those things will help the team get better." Edited by Jon Ralston CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A ROUND TWO: Kansas faces Texas in next tournament game Gillifian had frantically chased down a loose ball for nearly 20 seconds before sending a rainbow pass toward the goal. "The ball was going out of bounds, so I was just trying to keep it in play." Gilfillan said. "I'm not exactly sure how it happened, but I put the ball up in a lot of traffic, and Geha did a great job finishing the play." Iowa State hadn't mounted a serious scoring threat to that point, but consistently attacked the Kansas goal for the remainder of the first half. "I thought at 2-0 we really let down," said coach Mark Francis. "Our intensity went down, and we stopped doing things we did well before that point." Miller punted the ball away in frustration, and at that moment it seemed the eighth-seeded Cyclones posed a real threat to the Jayhawks. But the Kansas defense raised its level of play for the remainder of the game, and Miller recorded three saves along the way. Iowa State cut into the Kansas lead in the first half when freshman forward Stephanie Kaphingt headed a ball past senior goalie Meghan Miller. The Kansas offense got back "When I get scored on I pick up my focus," Miller said. "I don't want to let another goal get by me." in its groove in the 61st minute when Geha recorded her second goal of the game, her fourth of the year. She scored the unassisted goal when she snaked a low shot past two Iowa State defenders and placed the ball in the left edge of the net. Sophomore defender Holly Gault put the finishing touches on the 4-1 victory when she scored in the game's 74th minute. She scored her fourth goal of the season by making her way through a handful of Cyclone defenders. Gault received a pass from sophomore midfielder Michelle Rasmussen and drilled a shot from eight yards out past Iowa State's goalie, freshman Joanna Haig. Francis said his team's improved second-half performance was in large part due to a speech he gave at halftime. “At halftime, I riped into the team a little bit,” Francis said. “I told them we beat these guys 4-0 on Friday, and now we have to put them away again.” Kansas will try to avenge one of its two conference losses tomorrow against Texas. The Longhorns posted a 2-0 victory against Nebraska in its first-round game. The Jayhawks' 0-1 loss to Texas on Oct. 24 forced Kansas to share its Big 12 regular season title with Texas A&M. BROTHERS: Team takes on fundraising responsibilities Edited by Marissa Stephenson CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A Q: Have you two broken any bones or had any teeth knocked out? D: Ive never been injured. Last year there was someone that severed their Achilles tendon in our first exhibition game. Someone a couple games ago got a concussion, too. Q: Do you like promoting your own games or does it get frustrating? G: It's not frustrating; it's more a matter of organization and money because we spend most of our money on ice time. Q: Where does most of the money for the team come from? D: There's definitely room for money to be made so we don't have to pay so much in dues. We don't have much to spend on advertising and stuff like that and we need to get sponsors, but we have to do all that ourselves. That's kind of frustrating, we're just not organized enough to make a lot of money fundraising. G: Most of the money actually comes from dues at this point. Everybody pays to play on the team. What that money goes to is based on how much other money we can raise. It's all nonprofit but it's like if we pay for dues that pays for ice, but then we have to pay for our own gas for road trips — if we have a sponsor we don't have to do that. D: We ordered KU hats and hoodies that we're going to sell and that's pretty much all the fundraising we've had time to do. Q: What's the best thing about being on the hockey team? D: Hanging out with the team. D: Hanging out with the team. G: I'd say the best part of being on the hockey team is playing hockey and being able to play with other people that really want to play hockey — that's what does it for me. It's not the same unless you "Between hockey and drinking. there isn't time left for much else." Dave Knight Team treasurer have a team that wants to play. Do players try out? Q: Do players try out: G: We'll definitely have a tryout next week — we'll probably have two teams next year so we'll have a troutout for that. D: What usually happens is that 25 or 30 guys will show up and the players that are the worst all just kind of decide they don't want to play. It's kind of like a natural tryout. Q: After fundraising, practicing, playing games and traveling, is it hard to find time for school work? G: Well, I'd say we definitely have a lot of fifth- or sixth-year seniors, but I don't think that's hockey联办. D: Or drinking related. Between hockey and drinking there isn't time left for much else. G: There's a commitment, as far as practice and games to be at. But really we practice twice a week. It's not a humongous commitment and you just have to be committed to it. Some guys bring homework on the road but it usually doesn't get done. Q: Do you guys take out frustrations on the ice? D: Yeah, I guess it s a good release. D: Most of the other teams we play against are much more dirty than we are. When we play against a team like Mizzou much more people lose their heads. I would say that if you get adrenaline and enough anger built up against the other team you can release it all. Kucera is an Omaha, Neb., senior in journalism. FORWARD: Galindo practices for first time since groin injury Moody said in addition to becoming a better player, Kaun had been able to loosen up in past weeks. "Sasha was kind of nervous to start out up there, but he's really come along in practice and come a long ways," Moody said. "I know he's looking forward to shining on Sunday." Kaun's also looking forward to proving to himself that he's not misplaced any longer. "Then everything was so new to me, I felt lost," Kaun said. "Now, I kind of have an idea of where to go and when to go." Javhawk basketball notes CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A Sophomore guard Jeremy Case and junior guard Stephen Vinson are still out of practice with groin injuries. Freshman forward Alex Galindo, also afflicted with a groin injury, Self hasn't ruled on whether Galindo will play in the first exhibition game Sunday against Emporia State. practiced for the first time yesterday. "If he's healthy, I think we'll try to some, though I'm not sure how much." Self said. "Certainly I think we'll try to give everybody a chance to play if possible on Sunday." Freshman center Giles and freshman guard Russell Robinson are recovering from mild injuries of their own. Giles returned to practice this week after sitting out last week with shin splints. Robinson has a jammed thumb on his left hand and a sprained pointer finger on his right. "It kind of hurts from time to time, but it's something I'll play through," Robinson said.

Heather Haves, a junior guard from Derby, joined the team Tuesday and will help fill the void left by the departure of guard Larisha Graves, who left for personal reasons. Rec'in ball "Heather has a great work ethic and will add needed depth to our team," coach Bonnie Henrickson said. "She is a quality person, both on and off the court, and we're happy we were able to offer her a scholarship." Hayes was a redshirt walk-on during the 2003-2004 season and practiced with the Jayhawks but did not play in any games. She left the team after the season, but rejoined the roster after being offered a scholarship by Henrickson. Following one season with the Golden Eagles, Hayes played at Seward County Community College in Liberal during the 2002 fall semester, before transferring to Butler County Community College in the spring. The addition of Hayes brings a sixth guard to a Kansas roster that will rely heavily on perimeter play. "It has been a dream of mine to play for Kansas since I was little," Hayes said. "I'm excited about the opportunity. During her senior year at Derby High School in 2001, Hayes averaged 14 points and five assists and was selected as an honorable mention to the All-State team. During the 2001-2002 season at Oral Roberts, Hayes played in 21 games and off the court was named an Oral Roberts scholar athlete. Kansas opens the season Tuesday with an exhibition game against Fort Hays State. Paul Brand FOOTBALL Injured football players prepare for Colorado game There is good news concerning the rash of injuries that have afflicted the Jayhawks in recent weeks. Sophomore running back John Randle and junior cornerback Theo Baines are both practicing. Randle appears to be doing better than Baines, whose improvement coach Mark Mangino described as "slower." The team medical staff remains optimistic that both will play this weekend. Also, Mangino said junior quarterback Jason Swanson was working hard both on the practice field and after practice. Despite media requests, Mangino refused to make Swanson available to the media this week. "If there's any indication from what he does on the practice field, I think he'll be a factor in the game on Saturday," Mangino said. Kickoff for Saturday's game vs. Colorado is 12:30 p.m. Also, the Big 12 Conference and ABC Sports announced that the network would exercise its six-day option on games for Nov. 13. That means ABC will decide six days in advance whether to broadcast the day's Kansas-Texas game or the Texas A&M-Texas Tech.

Penalty decided for Mizzou THE ASSOCIATED PRESS INDIANAPOLIS — Missouri's basketball team avoided the NCAA's harshest penalty yesterday — a ban from postseason play. But it did receive one of the rarest punishments: A one-year ban from off-campus recruiting. After finding Missouri broke NCAA recruiting rules, the infractions committee placed the Tigers on probation for three years, took away one scholarship next year and two in 2006-07 and limited all basketball coaches to recruiting on campus until November 2005. The penalty prevents all basketball coaches from visiting high schools, making home visits, attending summer "We felt the off-campus ban would be a significant statement on the violations and removes the criticism of punishing current student-athletes," committee chairman Thomas Yeager said in a conference call. camps and even give speeches at high-school awards banquets. Yeager said the ban had not been imposed since 1990 when Illinois' basketball team was punished. "We have reviewed our report in detail and accepted the findings," Deaton said. Missouri chancellor Brady Deaton said the school would not appeal. Instead, Yeager said, coaches covered up some of the violations by submitting incorrect expense reports for 38 meals totaling $5,241.15. "We found, with the meals, that there should have been knowledge but that attempts were made to hide that," Yeager said. The investigation found Missouri violated NCAA recruiting rules from 1999-2003, and Yeager's committee rejected the school's explanation that most infractions were inadvertent. 2003 to two misdemeanors after a dispute with his ex-girlfriend. She said he choked her in a headlock and refused to let her leave his Columbia apartment for more than an hour. The case came to light after former point guard Ricky Clemons, a junior college transfer, pleaded guilty in April Clemons was removed from the team in July 2003 after a judge determined he violated conditions for serving his sentence in a halfway house and ordered him to jail. On jailhouse recordings, Clemons said he received money from coaches at Missouri. The committee could not confirm that charge. But it did determine that basketball coaches helped facilitate payment of his bail and that he improperly received shoes and athletic apparel. Two assistant coaches, Tony Harvey and Lane Odom, resigned during the investigation. The committee also reported Missouri provided improper transportation to recruits and had improper contact with prospects and their families.

The game winner was a shot to the center of the lajawhaws' court by outside hitter Jessica Vander Kooi, who led all players with 18 kills during the night. "We had a little spurt in each game," Bechard said. "They were very steady and aggressive." Kansas had its best offensive performance in the final game, when the team hit .250, indicating successful attacks on one quarter of its attempts. But Missouri answered, hitting .351 in the final set. "She's getting great looks at the ball." Brown said. Michael's had her least productive offensive performance of the season with only three kills. Correa led the Jayhawks with 17 kills. "They were trying to take that way." Bechard said. "She had a big match against them last time, and you react to that. We saw blockers jumping at Ashley so we moved our pass." With a 13-9 record, the team knows its upcoming stretch of two home games will be critical for NCAA tournament consideration. The tournament committee could select as many as eight teams from a loaded Big 12 Conference. "It's do or die," Bechard said. "If we're entertaining any thoughts at all to extend our season past the regular season, the next two are really critical." His team will host Oklahoma at 7 p.m. Saturday in Horejsi Family Athletics Center. The Kansas will face Baylor, who won narrowly in a match earlier this season, 7 p.m. Wednesday in Horejsi.

PAGE 88 SPORTS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 4,2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Bring on round two 'Hawks weather Cyclones, advance in tournament Kellis Rohinett/KANSAN 14 Senior forward Gabriela Quiggle chased down a ball during the Jayhawks' victory against Iowa State in the first round of the Big 12 Tournament yesterday. BY KELLI ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER Iowa State has had its fill of the Kansas women's soccer team after losing 4-0 and 4-1 to the Jayhawks in a five-day span. www.kansan.com Kansas senior midfielder Amy Geha scored two goals in the first round of the Big 12 Conference Tournament yesterday, helping the Jayhawks advance to the second round of the conference tournament for the second time in school history. "We came down here to win the Big 12 Tournament, and for us to win and for me to score two goals is just awesome," Geha said. The victory means the Jayhawks will face Texas in a second-round matchup at 5 p.m. tomorrow, a game that will be televised on Fox Sports Net, channel 36 in Lawrence. Junior forward Caroline Smith kicked off the scoring against Iowa State and recorded the first goal of the game at the sixth minute on a penalty kick. The first of Geha's two goals came in the 21st minute, when she took a bending pass in heavy traffic from senior forward Rachel Gilfillan and headed the ball into the upper right portion of the net to give Kansas a 2-0 lead. SEE ROUND TWO ON PAGE 8A Forward improves quickly BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Kansas freshman forward Sasha Kaun said he often found himself disoriented on the court during the team's exhibition trip to Canada, but it had nothing to do with the fact that the Jayhawks were in a different country. "Then it was just so quick, you just kind of lose yourself in the middle," Kaun said. "I think I've become more relaxed and more understanding of the game." The 6-foot-11 Kaun struggled at times in the Labor Day Canada trip, with coach Bill Self commenting that the game was still moving too fast for Kaun. But Kaun's progress in the last two months has been so great that coach Self called him the most consistent of the three freshmen big men in practice. "He's a sponge, and he's just picking stuff up," Self said. "He's starting to get it. Now is the game still too fast for him? Yes, but it's not quite as fast for him as it was before." Kaun began playing basketball his sophomore year of high school after coming to the United States from Russia, and his ability to learn quickly has paid off at Kansas. "He's definitely a great listener and a very coachable kid," senior forward Wayne Simien said. "I think it's something that's helped him progress and come along this far. Hopefully, he'll continue to make those jumps." Kaun remains one of four candi "He's definitely a great listener and a very coachable kid. I think it's something that's helped him progress and come this far. Hopefully, he'll continue to make those jumps." Wayne Simien Senior forward dates — along with junior forward Christian Moody, freshmen forward Darnell Jackson and freshman center CJ. Giles — for the final starting position. Self said the fifth starter would be relied upon to do the little things, such as rebound and screen, and that Kaun was willing to do whatever it took to earn playing time. "He says, 'Coach, just tell me what me to do,'" Self said, "And he'll try to do it." Kaun said that starting for a team as talented as Kansas would be an honor, but it would not be his main focus. "I think for me it's more important to help the team in any way I can, whether I'm starting or not," Kaun said. Teammates agreed that Kaun had greatly progressed since first arriving at Kansas.

Volleyball swept again on the road By BILL CROSS bcross@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER COLUMBIA, Mo. — The Kansas volleyball team lost its second straight match last night. As if that wasn't bad enough news for coach Ray Bechard's team, it's the second straight sweep by a Big 12 Conference rival. Kansas lost in three games to Missouri, 23-30, 26-30, 25-30. The team lost to Kansas State in similar fashion Saturday. Freshman opposite hitter Emily Brown, who had five kills on the night, said it would not be easy to recover from the two losses. "We need to beat teams that are going to be in the tournament, and K-State and Missouri were good opportunities to do that," she said. "Not getting either one is definitely a disappointment." But losing was not the team's main worry in the first game, when all-conference middle blocker Josi Lima went down in obvious pain early in the game. With a narrow lead, sophomore outside hitter Jana Correa served for the Javhawks. On the next volley, outside hitter Paula Caten's elbow hit Lima's face as they were running for the same pass. Lima stayed down for three minutes before Bechard helped her stand up and walk off the court. Her teammates immediately fell to a 6-8 deficit before a run led by the serving of senior middle blocker Ashley Michaels tied the game 10-10. Then Lima returned and gave her team a 12-10 lead with a quick kill. "She was very courageous, but we have been depending on her a little too much." Bechard said of Lima. The Jayhawks remained competitive until the score reached 19-19, when Missouri outside hitter Shen Danrujump serves took over. She reeled off five consecutive points after a kill by teammate Lisa Bovd. Serving became a factor again when Missouri libero Tatum Ailes nailed her third ace of the set to give her team a 27-20 advantage. "How come it can't swing the other way?" Coach Ray Bechard said. "That's the way you've got to look at it, especially on the road." It looked like the momentum might fall his wav in same two. The Jayhawks fought their way out of a 11-18 deficit to tie the set at 23, but the Tigers' balanced offense led them to the victory.

Each Thursday, Kansan sportswriter Shane Kucera sits with a student athlete and discusses issues beyond the playing field. When Geoff and Dave Knight wear their Kansas Ice Hockey Club T-shirts, they are often stopped and questioned by students on campus: "Do we really have a hockey team?" Yes, Kansas does have a hockey team. Though many KU students and alumni aren't aware of the team, Geoff and Dave's commitment isn't affected. The brothers do double duty, serving as both players and administrators for their team. Geoff is a fifth-year senior and the team president. Dave is a junior and team treasurer. That's how it goes for some of the lesser-known and lesser-funded club teams here at Kansas. While the basketball team flies on a private jet with a food buffet, the hockey team is left to find its own sponsors, pay GOING DEEP SHANE KUCERA skucera@kansan.com The Toronto natives dedicate valuable time to their favorite sport, expecting nothing in return but the chance to play hockey and go to school.

This week the brothers tell us about their experiences with hockey and more. Q: Does hockey seem more intense in Canada then here? Q: What was it like growing up in Canada? G: I don't know if it's more intense. but it's definitely like the passion for the game is just like what football is to Texas. It is like a one-sport deal, and hockey is the sport in Canada. Dave: It's taken more seriously. Just in the north it's taken much more seriously. G: There are hockey players on our $5 bill, so yeah, they do take it seriously. Q: What kind of following does the hockey team have? D: We had a nice thing going last year, but this year we're still trying to get back the fan base from last year. Usually 200 or 300 people roughly. The first game we had a decent crowd against Missouri. G: Last year we had maybe over 300 people at the games at the end of the year. We're trying to get that back. We're trying to get some sort of party bus to take people to the games. The biggest problem is that there's not a rink in Lawrence. B: Yeah, the main reason we don't have bigger following is because we don't have a rink here. People have to drive 30 minutes to K.C. now.

After calling his aunt who is a nurse the Lawrence junior decided to go to the emergency room at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. Lewis had suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning because of a ventilation problem with his hot water heater. Lewis said afterwards he called the gas company to come and look at his heater, and the leak was fixed for free. "The threat is real," said Rich Barr, Douglas County fire marshal. "With the temperature dropping there is increase in the possibility of poisoning." The use of gas range stoves, now water heaters, furnaces and portable heating devices becomes more prevalent, and so does the potential for carbon monoxide to leak into the breathing air of living spaces. Barr said. Jean Kozlowski, a pharmacist for Missouri Poison Control, said the first sign of poisoning was a headache that ran right across the front of the forehead. Soon, the headache will move to a throbbing pain in the temples. Other signs include weakness, dizziness, blurry vision and a person can even collapse. More serious side effects are an increase in heart rate and breathing rate. Once a person's carboxyhemoglobin, the amount of carbon monoxide in a person's blood, reaches 50 to 60 SEE CARBON ON PAGE 6A Dialogue promotes diversity BY NIKOLA ROWE nrowe@kansan.com KANSAN STAFE WRITER Before taking her SAT, Andrea Chao, Lawrence High School senior, checked two boxes: Chinese and Caucasian. She said she was sure it made the counting machines crazy. "I never check one box," Chao said. "I am two ethnicities." Seventeen people attended the event last night, which was held from 7 to 9 at the Centennial Room in the Kansas Union. Corey Collier, Shawnee senior, said she always checked "other," but "other" was not her ethnicity. Collier's mother is white and her father is black. Her mother raised her to just be human, not white or black, she said. Collier said she knew she was different, but her ethnicity was never an issue. The Diversity Dialogue, titled "Race: Check one only — What it means to be bi-racial or multi-racial in a one-box world," began with five panelists and a moderator discussing their challenges as bi-racial or multi-racial individuals. The event was one in a series of dialogues sponsored by the Multicultural Resource Center, Office of Multicultural Affairs and Diversity Peer Education Team. What would Senate do? Funding religious speakers a difficult task for senators BY LAURA FRANCOVIGlia francoviglia@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER SEE DIVERSITY ON PAGE 6A Preacher-turned-atheist Dan Barker will speak at the University of Kansas on Nov. 17 without funding from Student Senate. The Society of Open Minded Atheists and Agnostics said the speaker would give an academic lecture on the separation of church and state with background from the speaker's life and a question-and-answer session. Last week student senators decided not to fund $1,250 for the group's speaker for two reasons: the advertisement senators saw contradicted the said purpose of the lecture and the speaker did not provide text from the speech after a request from the finance committee chairman, Ryan Faulconer. When it comes to funding religion there are no set lines, said Jeff Dunlap, student body vice president. Senate has struggled with funding religious and political groups for the past two years because Appendix 1 of the Senate Rules and Regulations says Senate funds cannot be used to fund partisan activities or religious activities Senate funds student organizations that are open to all students, but funding for speakers and special events has more regulations. When considering funding a speaker for a religious organization, Dunlap said there was a distinction. The content cannot be evangelical, but Senate can fund academic lectures with a religious perspective. But still, he said, the line between religious perspective and religious indoctrination wasn't always clear Arthur Jones, Student Senate Executive Committee chairman, disagreed. He said deciding which reli- glious organizations to fund isn't that complicated. The speaker was Gary Haugen, the founder of the International Justice Mission. The International Justice Mission helps people suffering from injustice and oppression in the world, according to the mission's Web site, www.jim.org. About 10 weeks ago, Senate decided to fund a speaker for Ichthus, a Christian organization. Jones sponsored the bill, which requested $900 for the honorarium and room rental costs. Faulconer, Colorado Springs, Colo., senior, said he did not request text from Ichthus' speaker because the group assured the finance committee that neither a testimonial nor a religious service would be included in the lecture. "We're not going to fund any group who either promotes or talks bad about any religion or religious ideals," said Jones, Dallas junior.

The conference will also include leadership workshops and education of social issues. Minor wants students to not get side-tracked by the fears of society and to keep moving forward.

Not exactly a coat-and-tie affair, but it is still a night that at least she has circled on her calendar with a huge heart. If you come up big with a romantic evening, calm seas will greet you for at least the next six months. However, there is just one snag: You're broke. After shelling out most of your paycheck toward bills and food, you just blew the rest on a half-tank of gas. Help is on the way. Here is a sweet list of cheap dates that will keep your mate focused on the romance instead of the price. 1. Stargazing at the Zen Garden Classic. Here's a great free, yes FREE, date that will knock your date off her stiletto heels, if you can play your cards right. The Sister Cities Foundation Garden, also known as the Zen Garden, is located next to Papa Keno's on Massachusetts Street, Created to honor the friendship between the city of Lawrence and Hiratsuka City, Japan, this serene garden has been a date haven for years. Nothing fancy here, just a small, stone path enveloped by beautiful greenery and flanked by benches. However, the key to the date is what you see when you sit your honey down on the bench. "Not a lot of people know about it so it's a great place to have an intimate time with your date," says Mike Feld, Denver junior. This is where your debonair moves will come into play. Start up a conversation about the meaning of life or how diminutive watching the stars makes you feel. Show off your intellectual side. If you don't have one, fake it. Price: $0 2. Balcony dinner at Mass. Street Deli OK, maybe you want to keep things traditional. Taking her out to a nice dinner is the standard. But why not deviate a little? The upstairs balcony at the Mass. Street Deli offers you all the comfort of a normal date with a twist of romance and intrigue. Manager Scott Hartegen says,"The balcony is such a great date area. We get a lot of first dates up there." Couple the romance with some of the best entrée prices in town and you really have no excuse not to give it a try. **Price:** Two entrees plus tip: $15 3. Sunset drive out by Clinton Lake Now there are bonus points available here if you can obtain a motorcycle for the night, but a normal car will do just fine. Take Clinton Parkway all the way out until Clinton Lake right as the sun starts to descend the sky's ladder. As you begin to cruise the circumference of the lake, roll down all the windows and let the chopping of the water be the only sound you hear. Now for the intimate part: Prop your left hand up at about 10 o'clock on the steering wheel. Grab your date's hand with your right and just drive. If you picked a good night, the sight of the sun setting behind the lake will eliminate any need for talking. Damn, you're smooth! Price: Three gallons of unleaded gas: $6 billion. (Really, about$ 5.75) 4. Rent a DVD and watch it at the park OK, hear this out. Renting a movie may not sound very exciting. But it turns out that where, not what you do, can make a bland date a lot more romantic. You can make this one really cheap. First off, if you I love you or your mate don't have a laptop, you must know someone who does. If he won't let you borrow it, threaten to tell all your friends about his warts. He'll have no choice. Then go to Dillons video department, where membership is free and normal DVD rentals are less than $2. Now that the cheap part is covered, it's time for the romance. I'd suggest a secluded area of a park around sunset. Pack a blanket and a couple of juice boxes and you're golden. If you chose the movie well, you should be money. Good luck. Price: DVD: $2. Laptop: Borrowed, free. HAWKS POINT E APARTMENT HOMES 3 GREAT LOCATIONS NEW OWNER Newly Remodeled! up to 2 Months FREE! NEW IMAGE Call Today! 841-5255 *Limited time Only *Soldest Units He said she said "I'll call you later." Everyone has heard the phrase "I don't want to talk about it." "It" could be anything from the events a person encountered throughout the day to feelings about a fight with his or her significant other. Collin LaJoie, Shawnee senior, says when he hears the phrase he sighs and asks his girlfriend what's bothering her. "The ultimate thing to do would be to just give her a hug and make it all better, so we don't have to talk," LaJoie says. He added that when he says he doesn't want to talk, he means, "Lets move on because I really don't want to talk." Women interpret this differently. When men say it, women tend to assume things are going to be left unsaid and stir up trouble in the future, so women press the issue. Elizabeth Trotta, Lenexa graduate student, says her boyfriend knows exactly how to react when she uses the phrase. He automatically asks what's wrong and prepare for a conversation. "I don't want to force him to listen to me, but I really want to talk about it," Trotta says. It's her way of easing him into a conversation. Men and women should always pre-think this phrase and come up with a strategy that will leave both feeling content in the end. — Jayme Wiley First Watch First Watch BAR & BREWERY CITY FAXINIA - BRONCH CITY Located at 2540 Iowa St. Lawrence, KS 66046 Food Type: Breakfast Menu items: Omelets, bacon, pancakes and even oatmeal if you so choose. Price Range: $6-$ 12 Price Range. $0-$ 12 Attire Requirement: Don't come in your boxers, but feel free to dress casually. Date-Worthiness: If you consider the morning after a date, then it's perfect. Just make sure you brush your teeth before you go. Booze Availability: None, but you probably won't want beer with brunch so it shouldn't be a problem. Seating: They're usually pretty full on the weekends, but seats open up fast and you won't wait long. — Jennifer Voldness Odessa's Cafe DOCTORS CAFE Food type: Home-style cooking/American Price range:$4-$ 12 It's easy to miss Odessa's Cafe as you are driving along Connecticut Street. The exterior looks just like a Laundromat, because that is what it was until late 2001. The only exterior appearance change is the name on the sign. The interior, on the other hand, has been cleaned up, but remains very plain. Only the ornate ceiling of this tall building draws your attention. Menu Items: Fried chicken, meatloaf, catfish and casseroles are the stars of Odessa's Cafe. The limited menu allows Odessa's to focus on quality preparations. Plus, the side dishes — mashed potatoes, green beans, baked beans, macaroni and cheese, cole slaw and potato salad — made me feel as if my grandma had been cooking. 409 E. 12th St. 11 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Sun.-Fri. 8 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Sat. With portions that match the reasonable prices every college student needs to try Odessa's. Take the time to go just off Massachusetts Street to a restaurant that truly tries to make Lawrence home. Date worthiness: Odessa's is not the place to bring a date for a romantic dinner, but if you both love home-cooking come on in and join the locals for a great lunch or early dinner. The restaurant's booths and decoration will remind of you of a small-town cafe. Dress code: Casual. You'll feel out of place here if you wear anything dressy with the noontime hard-working crowd. Booze availability: None. Seating: Most of the tables and booths accommodate four to six people. The restaurant could easily accommodate a bigger group, but reservations are not accepted. —Andrew Vaupel CORK BARREL WINE AND SPIRITS NOVEMBER SPECIALS LIQUOR SPECIALS BACARDI $16.99 SILVER AND DARK 750 ml BAILEYS$ 16.99 Bailey's Irish Cream 750 ml ABSOLUT VODKA Absolut Vodka and Citron 750 ml BOMBAY SAPPHIRE $29.99 1.75 L Kahlua 1.75 L$ 27.99 Maker's Mark 750 ml $16.99 Famous Grouse 1.75 L$ 29.99 BEER SPECIALS GUINNESS $9.99 12 Pk.

My grandma worked there and whenever someone would drop off clothing of particular quality or style, she would call my two cousins, my sister and I to dig through the treasures. Istill shopresale stores in Lawrence for both vintage and newer items. The stores differ on their definitions of vintage, but it's generally clothing from the 1980s and older. If you are looking for the least expensive used clothing, visit thrift shops such as Goodwill, 2200 W31 $^{st}$ St., and the Salvation Army, 1818 Massachusetts St., but be prepared to hunt through the racks. Finding something you like that fits and doesn't have any stains or holes can be tricky. But I find something every time I go in, and besides, searching is half of the fun. Rachel Johnson, Goodwill employee, says she usually picks up tops, pants and jewelry when she shops secondhand. She pays the most attention to clothes' design. "I like clothing that looks interesting and different than what you'd get at Old Navy or the mall," she says. Other resale clothing and consignment stores, such as Sugartown Traders, 918 Massachusetts St., tend to be pricier, but also are more selective in the quality of clothes they take in. And they have more vintage items. Tess Bricker, Kansas City, Kan., senior, says clothing at Arizona Trading Company, 734 Massachusetts St., is judged by condition, style and brand before it's accepted. She says she looks for the same things when she shops resale clothing: looking out for holes, stains and alterations. The store carries 10 to 15 percent vintage clothing and has special racks for vintage dresses and menswear. Right next to Massachusetts Street is a New York-inspired, split-level store called Flush, 17 E. $17^{\mathrm{th}}$ St., but it's easy to miss if you're not looking for it. The store has half secondhand clothing and half new, Derek Hogan, owner, says. He says the store's concept is mixing decades to create funky, unique looks. "We think it's cool to find something new and match it with something classic to create your own style," he says. "Today's designers are using vintage for inspiration, and these are the originals." Marie Mullinix says she used to have a phobia of wearing other people's clothes, but after spending some time shopping on Massachusetts Street, she decided to give it a try. Now she shops secondhand once or twice a month with friends. Her favorite items are vintage shirts and cool jewelry, but she still can't bring herself to buy secondhand shoes. Before you purchase an item, check the stitching and lining, and make sure the zippers work and the buttons are still there. Make sure there aren't any scratches on glasses and jewelry is not chipped. And always try on clothes to make sure they fit and you like them, otherwise you and your purchase could end up back at the store.

Stephanie Lovett 11.4.04 Jayplay 7 notice The Encyclopedia of Butterflies Anything for an From superstitions to science students try anything to perform better on exams By Samia Khan, Jayplay w Photo by Joshua Kendall Chancellor Ernest Lindley's nose has been repaired approximately seven times because of students on this campus. For almost eight decades students have stopped to rub the nose on a bronze bust of Chancellor Lindley in Lindley Hall before their exams. These students have been banking on the legend that anyone who rubs the nose before an exam will get an A. In the high-pressure college environment, how a student performs in college has long-term implications on career and income. The anxiety to perform can drive people to try anything for success. Some students might try anything: pray, wear a lucky shirt, sleep on top of their books, sacrifice their roommate on an altar. Usually, it is the students who put effort into studying who employ these bonus test-taking rituals. It's the extra edge to long nights of hard work. Students tend to employ two types of test tricks. One is steeped in superstition. The other has some sort of science to it, or at least it does in the minds of the students. least it does in the mind of others. If you sit next to Shaun Peterson during a test you might not want to know his biggest good luck superstition. Part of his routine is using the same pencil on every test. But more importantly, the Wichita senior doesn't wear any underwear when he goes to take a test. He says a few years ago he didn't wear underwear one day on a whim. He took a test that day and it was the best he'd ever done on a test. Nothing about his studying was different. So going commando stuck as his good luck routine. "I feel if my penis is free, then my mind is free," he says. free," he says. Before every test Chris Bowman listens to Final Countdown by Europe for good luck. "That routine helps me feel like I can kick some butt on tests," the Leavenworth senior says. Sometimes student's studying techniques and habits may actually have some scientific efficacy. After hearing somewhere about the science of sleep hypnosis, Bowman tried to hypnotize himself for a French test. After studying the night before his test, he went to bed listening to his French instructional CD. The disc was on repeat all night and Bowman expected, in theory at least, he would awaken the next morning as a master of the French la Nicole Madril uses peppermint gum. The Topeka sophomore chews peppermint gum while studying for tests and while taking the test. It helps her remember the information, she says. Madril heard the technique was scientifically proven.

Even simple factors, such as colors, smells and sounds, can affect test performance. In addition to his Final Countdown ritual, Bowman says he ties to listen to non-lyrical music, such as techno music, while he is studying so he doesn't get distracted. In September of this year, Thomson Peterson's, a test preparation son's, a test preparation company, released a list of helpful hints on nontraditional methods of improving test performance. The advice was aimed at creating the proper physical responses in test-taking and studying. The company's research found that citrus smells help energize while studying late and the morning of the exam. Coriander helps improve circulation, preventing discomfort from uncomfortable studying positions: the standard numb butt and back pain issues. It also recommends avoiding studying a red room. red room. The research also found that music with repeating patterns and slow rhythms help in relieving stress while studying. It also found familiar music and childhood favorites can create calmness and reinvigorate the mind.

It's all about comfort. The students who have a good-luck routine or have tried a scientifically founded tip say these habits and tricks provide comfort. This sense of ease helps decrease anxiety and provide confidence. They will try anything that will help them feel like they have an edge on a test. test. For decades to come, nothing will stop students from hoping a bit of luck will come from giving Chancellor Lindley's nose a rub. Thanks to thousands of superstitious college students, the often-replaced nose on Lindley's bust doesn't match the rest of the sculpture standing in a corner of a long hallway. The plaque is faded and the head is a dull charcoal, but the nose is an unworn gold that shines, reflecting the promise of an aced test. As long as students' hopes for success never change, his nose will never age.

Everything else about her is great, but I can't respect someone with her viewpoints and I feel like a hypocrite for dating her. What should I do? a Joe, junior Chris: With the media feeding us daily partisan talking points, celebrity endorsements and inaccurate poll results, it's no wonder politics are on the brain. Because you said this relationship is in the earliest stage, I would end it. Not respecting her for her beliefs is somewhat understandable, but a good relationship can't exist without respect. There should be plenty of great girls roaming about that share your political/moral stances. However, if you were hoping I'd tell you to stick it out, do that. Because, in a few months — when we know who really won this election — the media will revert back to its non-stop coverage of the latest murder/abduction of an attractive, upper-class white woman, and this political stuff with go back to being something the average American only cares about every four years. Jessi: We often encounter a harsh reality when discussing politics with someone. The infamous "talk on political views" elicits our personal beliefs and morals, which are usually determining factors in whether you want a romantic relationship with someone. If you can't respect the person, though, why date them? It's different if a moderate democrat is dating a moderate republican, because their opinions overlap more, but when the extremes try hooking up, all hell breaks loose.

It's almost 8 p.m. on Tuesday and these guys are waiting for the action to start. The small lobby looks like someone's basement rec room. A young blonde woman calmly waits on a black leather couch by the door. A big screen TV is tuned to Comedy Central. Three comedians in their mid-20s to early-30s stand by a pool table testing out new material and laughing. At one end of the bar in the back of the room, the bartender is offering a guy in a T-shirt and jeans some liquid courage while two younger guys puff on cigarettes at the other end. Across the room, a couple of older comics wearing khakis and dress shirts whisper to each other nervously against the wall. An older woman sits at a square table in the corner, furiously scribbling notes on her set list. This is the scene every Tuesday night before Stanford & Sons hosts its Open Mic Night. I set out to discover what kind of deranged people would submit themselves to the torture of performing stand-up comedy in the Kansas City comedy scene. I figure what better place to start my journey than where comedians start theirs as well — the Open Mic Night. In the process, I decided that to fully appreciate the horrifying experience of writing and performing jokes in front of a live audience, I should participate myself. That's just what I did. But let's figure out the scene first. The setup Stan Glazer opened the first Stanford's in Westport, Mo., as an upscale restaurant in 1975, says director of operations Craig Glazer. Five years into the operation, comedian David Naster approached Glazer and pitched having an Open Mic Night on Mondays. The pair agreed, and as the comedy business picked up, Stanford and Sons Comedy Club was born. The family opened the Overland Park location at 10635 Floyd in 1999, which is currently owned by Rita Trantham (Stan Glazer's ex-wife and Craig Glazer's mother), Glazer says. But after closing the Westport location July 29, 2004, due toleaserrenegotiation issues, the family only operates the club in Overland Park now The Firm Comedy Café, 9211 Hillcrest in Kansas City, Mo., but it is not operating yet. So for now, Stanford's in Overland Park is the only place that offers comedy daily. the only place that exists You can find open mic nights at bars and restaurants as well as comedy clubs. Open micers should try to perform at as many places as they can, says feature comic Ross McGinnis, who has run the Open Mic Night Other comedy open mic nights in Kansas City, Mo. Gia's Italian Cucina, 2905 Southwest Blvd. (816) 531-7770 The Hurricane, 4048 Broadway St. (816) 753-0884 Jilly's, 1744 Broadway St. (816) 221-4977 The Point, 917 W. 44th St. (816) 561-7660 at Stanford's the last six months. McGinnis, a heavyset, 40-year-old comic from Weston, Mo., says in his experience, the number of comics at an Open Mic night can range Overland Park now. A new comedy club is opening called from 10 to 25(the first night attended there 10 Jayplay 11.4.04 10.1.4 5.6[1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 were 13). The Open Mic audience size depends on how many friends the comics tell to show up and laugh, and that number can range from 15 to 100 (I counted 10 the first night). Feature and headliner comics also use Open Mic Nights to test new material. Stanford's Open Mic Night not only allows new comedians to try out their material, but it also offers a comedy class before the performances. I sit in on the comedy class, with nine other comics, before the Open Mic Night begins. At 7:10 p.m. we move from the small lobby into the expansive main room. A Stanford & Sons neon sign hangs above a humble stage and microphone stand, which sit in the far corner and face 100 chairs with circular tables that dot the room. Murals of famous comedians line the walls, including screaming '80s icon Sam Kinnison. Waitresses busy themselves around a long, black bar in the back of the room. The open micers and I find seats around the stage where McGinnis plops down on a stool. Selections from Ross' comedy class "Maintain professionalism, even with a Comeay Club Ross McGinnis, host of Open Mic Night and feature comic at Stanford and Sons, laughs at a new joke from one of the comedians during the pre-show meeting. McGinnis, Weston, Mo., resident, has performed comedy for six years. small crowd." McGinnis' phone rings in his pocket. He answers it while everyone waits. A waitress walks by and says, "Now how professional is that Ross?" McGinnis' recommendations continue: McGinnis recommendations "Write your jokes with setups and punch lines. "You have to realize the target of the joke and get there fast. "Make sure the jokes are about you. "Make sure the jokes are about you. "Pay attention to people you think are good writers. "Right now, you just want to build up time to become an emcee and a feature. "Stay away from topical humor unless you can write well, fast. "I want the comedians to sit together in the back, so you can start bonding again. the back, so you can maintain "I cannot underemphasize that you need to record yourself. "First timers will get three minutes. I'll shine a flashlight in the back of the room steadily and will shake it when you have 30 seconds left. Your time starts when your name is called. You need to wait under Sam Kinnison's head. "Don't leave the stage empty — wait for the emcee to get back. "Get three minutes that work and set it aside. Do that three times and with nine minutes you'll have an emcee set." Wow, no pressure. Now I understand why most of the comics seem extremely nervous. The Open-micers "This black guy came up to me and said, 'Hey did the Yankees win?' And I JONATHAN SMITH Jared Gillespie, Open Mic Night comedian and Kansas City, Mo., resident, sets up the punchline to one of his jokes. Gillespie's short setups and quick punchlines whipped the audience into a frenzy. said, 'Yeah, you're free.'" — Jared Gillespie Gillespie After the 20-minute comedy class tutorial, we all shuffle back into the lobby to wait for the show. I am introduced to Jared Gillespie, who, according to McGinnis, is an up-and-coming open-micer. The wideeyed, 25-year-old Gillespie sits on a stool across from me at a tall table in a red-striped blue sweater. Only his receding hairline hints that he is of drinking age. His boyish face and constant smile allow him to get away with racier jokes, Gillespie says. For instance his, "I like gay guys, I just don't like the way they taste" joke, which he will try out tonight. Gillespie will try out 10 new jokes tonight, intermingled with jokes he knows are solid. He's been coming to Stanford's Open Mic Nights for three months now, ever since he moved from Colorado Springs, Colo., this summer. I'm not sure if there is a common stand-up background, but if there is, Gillespie's definitely isn't one. Although originally from Oklahoma, where he received a political science degree at the University of Ok degree at the University of Oklahoma, Gillespie moved to Colorado Springs to live and train at the U.S. Olympic Training Center for Tae Kwon Do. Like most comedians, his friends and teammates always told him he was funny. So when he wasn't kicking ass, he wrote for a sketch comedy show in Denver. He wrote 30 minutes of material before he took the stage at his first open mic night in Denver. Gillespie performed regularly for three months in Denver, then moved to Kansas City for work and to spend time with his sister here. He currently works as a valet at Hotel Phillips in downtown Kansas City, Mo., for his day job. to move to New York next fall with his girlfriend, who still lives in Colorado Springs and trains as an Olympic weightlifter. She plans to attend the New York Law School and he wants to try his chops in the ultra-competitive New York comedy scene. Levels of paid comics After Gillespie's first Open Mic Night performance at Stanford and Sons, he got an emcee gig, which can take months. He's encede a couple times since, usually performing 10 to 15 minutes. As for where the jokes come from, he says 85 percent of the time he comes up with jokes right before he falls asleep. Usually he'll think of a premise or a punch line and will record it into the voice recorder in his phone.

I need supers because I have such heavy miscarriages." — Nikki "Not related to Craig Glazer" Glaser Nikki Glaser, St. Louis junior, balances schoolwork with stand-up. Although, she says when she should be working on SIV Nikki Glaser, St. Louis junior and Open Mic Night performer, reacts to the positive crowd response as she glances down at her set list for the next joke. Glaser enjoys shocking the audience. school-related projects and papers, she finds herself writing jokes instead. Glaser has been performing off and on for a year and a half now. She tries to make it to Stanford's every Tuesday. Glaser caught the comedy bug at the end of her freshman year at the University of Colorado in Boulder. She participated in the Boulder Comedy Festival, which although it sounds important, she says it was just a bunch of college students performing. While home the next summer, she took a he next summer, she took a comedy workshop at The Funny Bone Comedy Club in St. Louis. That led to a open mic nights in the city. Glaser stopped performing after transferring to The University of Kansas for a year and then started taking it again last August." for all you need. back at it again last August. "I like to deal with controversial issues," Glaser says. "I'm working on a joke that ends with beating my children." She doesn't have children and says she would never beat them if she did, but the point is she starts working on the joke from its premise and punch line and then works her way back. Glaser used to write a journal to come up with joke ideas, but now says it's easier for her to sit down for a couple hours at a time and write out premises and jokes. She also draws inspiration from watching professional comics on TV. "If I watch Mitch Hedberg perform, I'll write a couple Mitch Hedberg-style jokes," Glaser says. She currently has a 15-minute act. At open mics, she says it's hard to watch the same people do their same sets 20 times in a row — but that's just part of it. And she's accepted that performing jokes over and over is the only way to get better. The hardest part of the process for Glaser is listening to recordings of herself, "I've made recordings that aren't even out of the tape deck," she says. "It's nice to be up-and-coming in Kansas City because there are more opportunities for beginners than the coasts." As for advice for first-timers: "Don't be discouraged if they don't laugh — you have to do it at least five times before you give it up," Glaser says. "Everybody bombs — Jerry Seinfeld still bombs." That's good advice, but I don't think it's quelled the overwhelming pit of fear lodged in my stomach from just thinking about dipping my toe in the comedy pool. The callback McGinnis estimates there are about 80 active comedians in the Kansas City area. That breaks down to 30 open-micers, who also account for emees, 30 features and around 20 headliners, McGinnis says. and on 2014. "Did you know when black babies are born they're white?

Young represents the top of the local comedy food chain. Dressed in matching black shirt and pants, the African-American comic sits down at a small table in the lobby with me. Under his hat and glasses, his face exudes confidence, and possibly comic wisdom. "The industry won't listen to you until you've put in at least 10 years," Young says. He started at Stanford's in Westport just like all of A Pulling into the parking lot, I feel sweat beading in my palms. After speaking with host McGinnis, I wait patiently with 19 other comics to see the night's schedule. I'm fifth on ... D. C. Young, headliner based in Kansas City, does an impersonation of Forrest Gump selling condoms. When Young played a club in Mountain Home, Ark., he actually stayed in a motel called Uncle Tom's Cabins. Westport just like his compatriots and moved through the ranks extremely fast — open-micer to emcee in a month, a feature in six months and in three years he was headlining shows. Young received standing ovations at the feature level. One time, he was scheduled to feature for Jimmie "Dy-no-mite" Walker for five nights. After the second night, Jimmie Walker didn't want to follow Young anymore and had him taken off the line-up. Got paid for the whole week. He says he learned everything he knows about comedy from three guys in the Kansas City scene: David Naster, Emery Emery and Elliott Threatt. He tries to do the same thing for comics coming up in Kansas City and takes local features on the road with him any opportunity he gets. His advice for the open-micers, "Find your voice; that's the difference between a struggling comic and a working comic." That advice encompasses stage presence, delivery and inflection. A Mike Smith, Kansas City, Kan. feature comic, drives an imaginary car around Kansas City in one of his jokes. His words of wisdom? "Even after 13 years, I still have a lot to learn." Young says. He adds, "Arsenio Hall is an asswipe." First-time performer Armed with advice from multiple newbies and seasoned pros, I prepare to tackle my first three-minute set. I sit at my desk at home, jotting down ideas and trying to structure jokes for about two hours. In that time I come up with seven questionable jokes. Writing structured jokes with a setup and punch line is much harder than it sounds. I only have about 10 minutes to practice the jokes out loud before driving to Kansas City for open mic night the next Tuesday. the list, so at least it will be over fast. The emcee, Jesse Turney, opens the show at 8:15 p.m., and before I have time to get nervous, I hear, "Please welcome to the stage a first-time performer, Chris Crawford!" I jump up on the stage, with set list in hand and start stumbling through my first joke. I try to look out into the audience of 12 people, but the spotlight is too bright. "This is why I can't date dumb girls ever again. I went to the Ozarks with my girlfriend a couple of years ago and one day we went swimming. My girlfriend liked this lady's swimsuit and asked her where she got it. The lady said she got it in Brazil. My girlfriend responded, 'I've always wanted to go to Europe.' " There's a pause and then I get a laugh. I look at my list and notice my hand is slightly shaking. By my fourth joke, I notice that I get a big laugh. "I never got the Calvin peeing on Chevy or Calvin peeing on Ford stickers. But I saw one that out-classed them both. I swear, when I was stopped at a stoplight in Lawrence one day, the back window of the truck in front of me had a Calvin peeing on a crucified Jesus Christ sticker. And I couldn't figure out if the driver was anti-Jesus or pro-golden showers." I plowed through my jokes and walked off the stage to sympathetic cheers for a nervous first-time performer. The punch line Feature comic Mike Baldwin said in his set the week before, "Once you get onstage and make people laugh, it's addictive." I agree. Though I stumbled through poorly-rehearsed jokes, when I heard people laugh, my adrenaline kicked in. Callback: A joke with a punch line that refers to a joke you did earlier in your set.

That's okay, because it's actually possible to go out and have fun under the age of 21 By Matt Beat, Jayplay writer It's Friday night and you head downtown to see your favorite band, the Ice Picks. Because the Ice Picks are from Russia, the band rarely makes it to Lawrence, so you've been waiting for this night for years. You walk in the door of the venue, and a big fellow who smells like Pabst Blue Ribbon abruptly pushes you back and asks, "can I see your I.D.?" You slowly hand over your driver's license. He examines the license for what seems like ten minutes, then looks up. "Sorry, this show is 21-to-enter," he says. "I can't let you in." is 21-to-enter, no help. Few choices are available for students born after November 4th, 1983, who want to hit the local nightlife scene. This forces students like Ojas Sampat, Philadelphia sophomore, to search for alternatives. On the weekends he'll typically see movies, go bowling or just hang out with friends. And there's always house parties. "At Hampshire St., and the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., consistently host musicians and allow music fans under 21 to enter. them." Sampati says. One KU student, who prefers to be named "Jessica," has been getting into shows at 21-and-over bars for more than a year, and she's only 20. Jessica has a fake I.D., but only so she can see her favorite bands. Bars such as the Jackpot Saloon, 943 Massachusetts St., or the Replay Lounge, 946 Massachusetts St., are always 21-and-over bars, even though they mostly host musicians. However, bars such as the Bottleneck, 737 New least in Lawrence there's a large number of people in the same boat as me who are under 21," Sampat says. About 14,000 University of Kansas students have not yet reached the 21-year milestone. Many of these students have friends who are 21 and older, however. "It does get annoying when you're around friends who are 21 and want to go out and you can't join them," Sampat says. to enter. "Many students under 21 just want to dance. For them, clubs are hard to find. There's Neon, the '80s dance party at the Bottleneck every Thursday night, but it's the only 18-to-enter night at the bar. Last Call, 729 New Hampshire St., and Coyote's, 1003 E. 23rd St., are both 18-to-enter every night both are in business. Students can also head to Olathe where they'll find Durango's (formerly Orlando's), the only club in the Kansas City metro area that has 18-to-enter nights. Owner Wendy Orlando is shocked to hear there are few clubs for students under 21 to visit in Lawrence. "You'd think in a college town there'd be more to choose from," Orlando says. She says just two years ago bars like the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts, Abe and Jake's, 8 E. 6th, and The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., regularly had 18-to-enter nights. The Hawk used to be known as one of the few bars in Lawrence to let people under 21 through the door every Thursday night. Not anymore. Owner Jon Heleniak says it simply didn't have enough doormen to catch all of the underage patrons sneaking drinks. He didn't want to risk someone from the Alcoholic Beverage Control Bureau catching an underage drinker and slapping him with a fine. Durango's used to be 18-to-enter every night it was open. Now it is just three nights a week. Orlando says there are two reasons for the change. One is she was constantly being hassled by the city. Being the only dance club in town to let people under 21 in gets notice from lawmakers. "I was tired of dealing with them and tired of fighting," Orlando says. The other reason was the migration of older patrons to other bars. Orlando says as people get older, they begin to get annoyed with all the younger customers coming in, so they head to where they can find more people their age. Orlando thinks business will improve with the change. "Now 18-year-olds will be forced to come in on certain nights, and other nights the older crowd will come back to us," Orlando says. Orlando says. Patrons under 21 have to pay a high price if they do want to join the older crowd. Jack Flanigan's, the other club in Lawrence that has 18-to-enter nights, charges customers under 21 $8 to enter on Saturday nights, while customers older than 21 enter free. Most bar owners will charge more to make up for the money they lose from the customers not buying alcohol. alcohol Bar owners who have 18-to-enter nights have more to worry about than losing money from the lack of alcohol purchases. Sometimes they could lose their license. "The police won't leave you alone," Toni Cloud, co-owner of the Vinewood Roadhouse, 2848 29th St. in Topeka, says. Cloud says many bar owners are tired of dealing with the Alcoholic Beverage Control Bureau, but says she can deal with them coming in. "You have to take the good with the bad." Cloud says. good with the bad, Cloud says. "But these kids need a place to go, and honestly I think they're safer here than anywhere else in Topeka," Cloud says. The Vinewood Roadhouse, the only bar in Topeka that allows 18-year-olds to enter, started allowing them Aug. 1 to help change the image of the bar. The bar usually tends to have an older crowd, and Cloud is trying to get more college students to come." I never agreed with the drinking age anyways," Cloud says. "If you're old enough to fight for your country, you're old enough to drink, and I think many 18-year-olds are just as responsible as 21-year-olds." Though hard to find, clubs and bars are out there to cater to underage students' needs. Still, students like Michael Nelson, Topea sophomore, say there's plenty to do other than go clubbing. Nelson enjoys going to coffee shops, art exhibits, parties and just to other friends' houses to hang out. The one time he did go to The Hawk, he says there were so many restrictions it took the fun out of being there. "You don't have to drink to have a good time," Nelson says, "but basically people go to bars to drink—that's why they're in business."

Not ostensibly cute or the kind of cute that children and small animals possess, either. Cute with killer hooks. Everything about this band, its look, sound and honesty is so endearing, it hurts. This works to the band's advantage on More Adventurous, allowing them to whistle, clap their hands and sing lines like "I never (never being repeated 27 times) loved somebody the way that I loved you," all while retaining and enhancing cherubic glow. enhancing cherubic grow. After only three albums, Rilo Kiley have patented a universally appealing sound all its own: melodic folkronica anchored by Jenny Lewis' impossibly gorgeous vocals and Blake Sennett's effortlessly complex guitar harmonics. More Adventurois is a whirlwind of pop hooks, evocative guitar layers and lush electronic layering. Lewis embraces her golden larynx like never before, especially on "I Never" — a confessional country waltz where she howls like a Nashville superstar. Her emergence as one of rock's most talented female vocalists has taken Rilo Kiley to new heights on More Adventurous. Adventurous. There are no hiccups on this album, just great songs from Los Angelos that sound nothing like fabricated glam. Some fans might find Blake Sennett's lone vocal appearance on "Ripchord" distressing, as his vocal duties have diminished each album, but Lewis makes you forget all too quickly. quickly. After jumping ship from new indie-label leiathan, Saddle Creek, to a major label, some surely felt Rilo Kiley was the latest rock Judas. It's just that this band is too charming and universally appealing to be stifled by the clutches of hipsterdom. Few bands, big or small, are as talented as Rilo Kiley, and none of them are about to take over the world. Rilo Kiley will if people hear it.

The company that created Mario and Luigi has waited until this time to start flexing their big guns with the games that made them what they are today. Two representatives of Nintendo showed me the games they have lined up for the holidays. The first game I tried out was Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. The game is due in stores Nov. 15. This game is predicted to be a big seller for Nintendo. Metroid has always been a staple makes sence to switch to 3D mode," says Stephen Ward, Nintendo representative . After the success of games like Goldeneye, first-person shooters became really popular. popular. The next game due out for the holiday season is Mario Power Tennis. This game is due on Nov. 8. This game has been in development for always been a staple game for Nintendo and Samus has been an icon for Nintendo for years. Samus this time takes on a rescue mission. She crashes on a planet called Aether. The alien race called the Inge Horde attacks her and takes most of her weapons. You soon learn that the planet is split between a light and dark side and you must explore both to uncover the main mystery. The main thing about the Metroid titles on Nintendo Gamecube is the switch from third-person side scrolling to first-person shooter. "It guns need development for years. New features have been added such as the Nintendo themed courts. Each court has different hazards to watch out for. I played on the Wario Factory court where you hit arrows to make the court floor move. Also, each player comes with his or her own unique power shots for offense and defense. They come in handy when trying to get a leg up in a match. Mini-games have also been added. One game is Paint Face where you hit paintballs at a drawing on a wall and try to color it correctly. Possibly the biggest release for Nintendo this year will be it's new handheld system, the Nintendo DS. It makes it worldwide debut in America Nov. 21. It'll sell for $149.99. The Nintendo DS is composed of two screens; one screen allows for touch input. The Nintendo DS comes with wireless features such as multiplayer and wireless chatting. The new system has the chatting software already installed into it. Some of the games scheduled for release for the Nintendo DS are Goldeneye, Madden and Super Mario 64 DS, a revamp of the original Mario 64 with even more missions and more playable characters. In this game the second-screen serves as a map of the level making it useful to locate items across the level. it useful to locate items accessed This holiday season should be a great time for gamers. Start creating a list now. There's no telling how fast these Nintendo products will go. — Chris Moore Mortal Kombat: Deception The newest incarnation of possibly the most well-known fighting game of all time blends together elements that made past games successful. Many older characters are brought back alongside newer ones, including Baraka, the metal-spiked arm guy and Nightwolf, the tomahawk-wielding badass. Another inventive character is Noob-Smoke, a combination of two characters. With a bit of practice, Noob-Smoke can dazzle its opponents from both sides of the screen with incredible speed. This time around MK:Dhas a few new modes of play. One mode lets you select a team of characters and play a sort of "chess kom- places, on certain days, but spends The new modes are only a side-track to the konquest, which in the end is very predictable. Overall, MK:D is a good fighting game, but not quite as good as an adventure game. Definitely worth a rental or perhaps even a buy. bat" with them. Another new mode is the puzzle kombat, which is basically a deadly game of Tetris. The konquest mode is held from the last game, but is heavily revamped. Konquest has an adventure-game feel with battles mixed in for good measure. A couple grips about the konquest mode: The voice acting is terrible and if you skip it, you won't hear the description of a quest. Further prodding produces only "Please, find 'insert object' before its too late!" Secondly, once you do find whatever it is that you're supposed to find, getting back to the person who gave you the quest in the first place can be difficult. cult. The krypt is back and massive as usual, but some of the koffins are locked with keys you can only find when you play the konquest mode. Look for this information on the Internet, because some of the keys only appear in certain worlds, in certain places, on certain days, at a specific time.

Ray (☆☆1/2) PG-13, 152 minutes, South Wind 12 Who knew Jamie Foxx had it in him? A veteran of Booty Call and Breaking All the Rules, Foxx seemed to be just another comic actor. Until he turned up in Ali and this summer's Collateral, and I was impressed. Now after seeing him in Ray, I'm astounded. As Ray Charles, Foxx is flawless. Directed by Devil's Advocate artiste Taylor Hackford, Ray is infused with Charles' soulful music and rhythm. The film chronicles Charles' journey from Ray AMIT TOSH Ray Robinson the boy to Ray Charles one of the biggest stars in America. It does so in an episodic, old-fashioned manner complete with flying magazine covers, newspaper headlines and explanatory titles; which honestly I could have done without, but to each his own. Watching Foxx swagger and stumble, I completely accepted him as a blind man. Then there came the music. Foxx went to college on a piano scholarship and he can sing, which all work to his benefit here. However, the man must not only lip-sync perfectly with Charles' own recordings but he must convey the emotion Charles put into his performance and he does so superbly. He is so affecting as Charles that, especially during the scenes with his beloved but betrayed wife and those showing his spiral downward because of a heroin addiction, I completely forgot it was Jamie Foxx. It made me look twice when real pictures of Charles were shown. The power of his performance carries the film. Consider my bet placed: Jamie Foxx for Best Actor! Lindsey Ramsey Birth ( ☆☆1/2) R. 100 minutes, South Wind 12 Once you get past Nicole Kidman's 150,000 pounds he doesn't neo-Winona Ryder haircut and the scene where a 10-year-old boy jumps in the bathtub with her, Birth has some polish and a few effective elements, but not enough to satisfy. You can get past the hair, but watching a 10-year-old undress is more than a little weird. The story is as off-the-wall as a soap opera, but the actors are as dry and Birth Lives and lives on another Dianne Chapman Larry Baum Pamela Gilbert Ann Hobbs restrained as Woody Allen's film Interiors. In fact, Harris Savides' glowing, wintertime New York cinematography resembles Allen's movies a great deal. Alexandre Desplat's score uses light flourishes during quiet moments and hardly any sound during emotional peaks to give a sense of loneliness and longing. The most stone-faced of the actors is Cameron Bright as the young boy, Sean. He wanders into the life of Anna (Kidman), claiming to be her dead husband. It's far too long before the plot gets any farther than this. Bright has the unenviable task of trying to act and talk as though Sean is a grown man. All he can manage is a glassy stare and an infuriating deadpan voice. The rest of the actors fare a better than Bright. Anna's family (Danny Huston as her fiance and Lauren Bacall as her mother, among others) is bemused by Sean's absurd claims. They're nice to him and try to sort out what's going on, but there is an undercurrent of frustration and rage subtly transmitted by all of them. The subtely is nifty, but it doesn't add up. They do not defend Anna's obviously deteriorating emotional state. That they would stand idly by for so long while she is tormented is difficult to believe. Setting aside Birth's considerable shortcomings, Kidman does unravel beautifully. One close-up lasts an intensely long time. The movie isn't so gauche as to imply that she decides Sean is her husband, but rather that she has seen something that is too eerie to ignore.

However, on second viewing it became clear that Shrek 2 DUNGEON WARS Just want to see Puss in Boots sing "Livin' La Vida Loca." became clear that driver 2 lacked the heart of the original. In the first Shrek we were waiting with bated breath to see which form Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) would take at the very end (princess or ogre7), yet in the second installment we don't wonder or care, we Now, as the DVD is released, it is clear that all those pop culture puns adults loved were just a clever way to get money out of us; this DVD is for kiddies. Complete with games for kiddies, blooper reels for kiddies, featurettes for anyone who cares enough and Far Far Away Idol, where the characters all have a go singing for an animated Simon Cowell (can I declare the end of a trend yet?) for fans of American Idol, the single disc release is just a ho-hum of features attached to what is a surface level, but very funny movie. — Lindsey Ramsey Dawn of the Dead: The Unrated Director's Cut movie (★★); DVD （★★） There is nothing worse than a bad zombie movie. If there's one thing you need to know to enjoy a zombie movie, it's that you should never, ever expect a happy ending. Some zombie movies are done well (28 Days Later) and others make you want to beat your head against the seat in front of you (Resident Evil: Apocalypse). Dawn of the Dead leans more toward the latter. Now there is an unrated director's cut of the movie with added footage, i.e. more gore and other bells and whistles that add depth to a whistles that used a movie in a genre that is usually shallow. movie in a genre that is usually snail Dawn of the Dead follows a group of survivors who take shelter in an urban shopping mall after a virus turns humans into KYRON FLAUNT JUST HOW ABOUT IT THAT LANDMARK FILMS PRESENT THE GAME DAWN OF THE DEAD COMING SOON flesh-eating zombies. The standard zombie movie rules apply here: Once bitten it's only a matter of time before you turn into one of them, and shooting them in the head is the only way to put them down permanently. Most notable of the survivors is Ana (Sarah Polly), a nurse, and Kenneth (Ving Rhames), a bad-ass cop with a good heart. Because this is an unrated director's cut, director Zack Snyder explains that this version has more gore and character development, which is true. We do get to know the back stories of the central characters well, but is that important in a movie where the broken end of a croquet mallet is jammed through a zombie's head? Dawn of the Dead does have its entertaining moments, doesn't follow all of the tired zombie movie clichés and is full of lots and lots of bloody gore. — Jon Ralston Dr. John & His Band Charlie Musseiwhite Shamekia Copeland Celebrating the Blues November 7 7:30pm KMAJ 107.7 Tampa's Radio Station 27 KSNT·TOPEKA Tickets available at the TPAC Box Office M-F, 10:30 a.m. to 5:15 p.m & two hours before shows Ticketmaster outlets, 234-4545 or ticketmaster.com TOEKA PERFORMING ARTS CENTER The Elgin Music Department Performance 214 SE 8th Avenue + Topeka, KS 66603 785-234-2787 • www.tpactix.org Your Graduation Professionals For KU Graduation Gear!

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN PRESENTS Gay Play Live NOVEMBER 11TH AT THE GRANADA NEW HOME SAME GREAT SOUND ED Illustration by Scott Drummond The final kick Fighting to the finish line, but not alone Pain surges through my legs as I lie on the sidewalk of a street in Chicago's Chinatown district. I have just finished the first 20 miles of my first marathon and I have ran into the proverbial "wall." I knew it would come. The "wall" is the point when your body says no, but your mind and spirit have to take over and say yes. I had been preparing for this day for four and a half years, but I didn't realize how much I would need my friends and family — and the memories of them. ******* By Andrew Vaupel, Jayplay writer In February 1999 I began dating Lindsey, my first girlfriend. Lindsey was a cross-country runner and a track and field athlete. I started running in March of that year so that I could someday run with her. My first attempt at running was a disaster. I went to my hometown YMCA and ran two laps around the indoor one-thirteenth of a mile track.At the end of those two laps I was exhausted and out of breath. Dr. George Sheehan, who former President Bill Clinton once called "the philosopher king of running," wrote "Life is the great experiment. Each of us is an experiment of one — observer and subject — making choices, living them, recording the effects." I continued to push forward with my running and I have lived by this basic philosophy. My running eventually took on more meaning. I ran so that I could eat what I wanted. I ran so that I could be in shape. I ran so that I could be in shape. I ran so that I could relax from the pressures of the world and just think. My freshman year on a day when it was raining so hard I couldn't see more than 30 feet in front of me, I went out to run a few miles. When I got back from running, my roommate laughed at me. I looked like I had been thrown into a pool fully-clothed, but I could see he was impressed with my dedication and, admittedly, so was I. I got so into running that even after Lindsey and I broke up, I kept going. I found new running partners and life went on. I thought I was hardcore, but then I met someone like me who was even crazier. She was a good friend from work who decided one day that she wanted to run a marathon and trained hard for weeks last winter to get ready. She trained through pain and by marathon day she was in such excruciating agony she took painkillers so she could run. She ignored the warning signs that something was wrong. Later she found out that a bone in her leg had been rubbing directly against her muscles causing real damage. I was horrified — and a little inspired. I decided that I would run the LaSalle Bank Chicago Marathon on Oct. 10 of this year. I trained throughout the summer and into the first weeks of school. I experienced the pain of training, but my pain, unlike my friend's, was just muscle soreness. As race day approached everyone I met was rooting me on. My family had grown very supportive. My mother and father wished me well. My sister was inspired and began going for regular walks for exercise. exercise. When I arrived in Chicago for race weekend Taylor greeted me at the rail station. She was the host for my visit to Chicago. On race day, Taylor and her boyfriend came out to the course to yell encouragement. ******* After five minutes of lying on the sidewalk, I attempt to use my legs to get up. I try five times but my leg muscles will not cooperate. I think to myself that this might be the end of the race for me. Then thoughts of all the people who were supporting me race through my head and I decide to try and get up a different way. I roll over and use my arms to slowly walk my way into an upright position. I'm finally up and only 6.2 miles from the finish. I feel the rumblings of the revolution occurring in my legs, but I just put one foot in front of the other. As each mile passes — more slowly than I ever imagine possible — the pain hits a plateau. My legs are numb and I think I may pass out as I continue to run. When I finally see the finish line I begin to cry for joy and from the pain. I cross the finish line with my arms raised in triumph. Once I get through the finish area and meet with my friends I tell them I will never run another marathon again. As we slowly walk away from the finish area I realize that those 26.2 miles were not just a personal triumph. Finishing the marathon is a reminder that with hard work and great friends, regular people can do incredible things. Maybe another marathon isn't all that far-fetched. Some of my friends still think I'm crazy, but without their support I couldn't have done it. 11.4.04 Jayplay 19 O Weekly Specials @ Kansan.com Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tues Wed $1 Shots$ 2.50 Dbl Wells 75¢ Draws $1 Wells-rum$ 1 Shots $2.25 Rolling Rock Bottles$ 1 Shots $3 Red Bull Vodka$ 2.25 Wells $1 Shots$ 1.50 Draws $1 Off Import Btls$ 1 Shots $2.25 Miller High Life$ 1 Shots $1 Shots$ 1.50 Pint Blvd. Wheat & Palate Ale Tower Thursdays! $7 2 Liter Towers$ 3 Jager Bombs Lunch Special-$4.99 Chicken Fried Steak Happy Hour Appetizers 4-6pm$ 2.50 Rolling Rock Bottles $2.50 Rock Green Light Bottles$ 2 Captain Morgan Drinks Wings; 10 for $4, 20 for$ 7, 40 for $14$ 3 Vodka and Energy Drinks $4.99 Chicken Finger Basket Tower Tuesdays!$ 7 2 Liter Towers $2 Smirnoff Flavors$ 2.50 Corona, Dos Equis, Negra Modelo Pacifico $2 Parrot Bay Drinks$ 1 12 oz Draws $3.50 Jager Bombers$ 3.75 Domestic Pitchers $3.75 Domestic Pitchers$ 2 Screwdrivers & Bloody Mary's $2 Domestic 12oz Bottles$ 2 Well Drinks $3.75 Pitcher$ 1.75 Domestic Bottles $2 Captain Drinks Band: Crown Vic$ 2.50 Premium Pints $2 Stoll’s DJ$ 3 Double Wells Band: King Snakes $2.50 Bloodys$ 5.50 Burger/Fries/Pint Half Price Pizza $3.50 Pitcher$ 1 Tacos $2.25 Blvd. Pints Texas Hold ‘Em 7-10 pm$ 3 Double Red Bull & Vodkas $2.75 Biggies DJ Scottie Mac$ 2.75 Imported Bottles $4 Captain Dbl Free Pool (12am-2am)$ 2 Bully Pint $4 Smirnoff Dbl$ 5 Miller Pitchers $1 Draw & Shot Mix$ 2 Wells $2 Screwdrivers$ 3.50 super Premium Bottles $3.75 Bloody Mary’s Free Pool (12am-2am)$ 1 Draw & Shot Mix $2 Wells Free Pool (12am-2am)$ 2.25 Domestic Bottles $4 Long Islands$ 1 Fuzzy Shot Free Pool (12am-2am) $1.50 Dbl Wells and Draws$ 2 Jagerbombs & Double Calls $1 Almost Anything$ 1 Domestic Bottles $2 Doubles$ 1.50 Shots LADIES NO COVER $2 Pitcher Ride the T for 50¢ Ride the T for 50¢ Ride the T for 50¢ 2 for 1 Wells 50¢ Bud/Bud Lt DraWS$ 4 Chicken & Buffalo Strips DJ Nick Redell $1.50 Wells$ 2 Bottles $6 Phillys$ 1 Domestic DraWS $5 Red, White & Blue Burger All Pitchers$ 5 25¢ Wings $2.50 Import Bottles$ 2 Captains 1/2 Price Appetizers $2 23 oz Domestic DraWS$ 4 Reubens $4 Domestic Pitchers$ 6 Import Pitchers $3 Dbl Bacardi 2 for 1 Burgers Graduation Needs Place you Textbook Pre-Order jayhawkbookstore.com Live Broadcast Greg Sharp Sports Show 3:30-5:30 Weekend Tailgate Specials 25%-40% off Weekend Tailgate Specials 25%-40% off Monday Madness Graduation Needs Place you Textbook Pre-Order jayhawkbookstore.com Graduation Needs Place you Textbook Pre-Order jayhawkbookstore.com$ 3.50 PitcherS $3.50 32oz Bottles (our famous brown bag specials) Gameday Specials Sleeping off Hangovers$ 1 Cans $2.50 24 oz Big DraWS$ 1.50 14 oz DraWS $2 Domestic Bottles 1.75 Domestic Schooners$ 3 Premiums $2.50 on most Bottled Beer$ 3.25 Blvd. Schooners and Freestate $1.50 Wells Large 1 Topping Pizza with 2 Beers for$ 10.50 Large 1 Topping Pizza with 2 Beers for $10.50 Large Specialty Pizza with 10 Cinnamon Stix and 10 Wings for$ 14.99 Buy a Large Pizza at regular price and recieve a FREE Medium Pizza (5-9pm) Buy a Large Pizza at regular price and recieve a FREE Medium Pizza (5-9pm) Value Meal Deal; Personal Pan with Breadsticks and a Drink for $3$ 3 Martinis $3 Jumbo 32oz Margaritas$ 3 Jumbo 32oz Margaritas $2.50 Bloody Marys$ 2 off Schooners $4 Bud Light Pitchers$ 6 Blvd Pitchers Boulevard Night: $1Pale Ale DraWS$ 1 Wheat DraWS Bottleneck Yachi Club SPORTS & LEisure FOOL HALL ASTROS MAR & GRILL 1993 DAVIS WILLIAMS CO.

GOLDFIELD Senior forward Gabriela Quiggle chased down a ball during the Jayhawks' victory against Iowa State in the first round of the Big 12 Tournament yesterday. BY KELLI ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Iowa State has had its fill of the Kansas women's soccer team after losing 4-0 and 4-1 to the Jayhawks in a five-day span. Kansas senior midfielder Amy Geha scored two goals in the first round of the Big 12 Conference Tournament yesterday, helping the Jayhawks advance to the second round of the conference tournament for the second time in school history. "We came down here to win the Big 12 Tournament, and for us to win and for me to score two goals is just awesome," Geha said. www.kansan.com The victory means the Jayhawks will face Texas in a second-round matchup at 5 p.m. tomorrow, a game that will be televised on Fox Sports Net, channel 36 in Lawrence. Junior forward Caroline Smith kicked off the scoring against Iowa State and recorded the first goal of the game at the sixth minute on a penalty kick. The first of Geha's two goals came in the 21st minute, when she took a bending pass in heavy traffic from senior forward Rachel Gilfillan and headed the ball into the upper right portion of the net to give Kansas a 2-0 lead. SEE ROUND TWO ON PAGE 8A Forward improves quickly BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SWIFTWRITER Kansas freshman forward Sasha Kaun said he often found himself disoriented on the court during the team's exhibition trip to Canada, but it had nothing to do with the fact that the Jayhawks were in a different country. "Then it was just so quick, you just kind of lose yourself in the middle," Kaun said. "I think I've become more relaxed and more understanding of the game." The 6-foot-11 Kaun struggled at times in the Labor Day Canada trip, with coach Bill Self commenting that the game was still moving too fast for Kaun. But Kaun's progress in the last two months has been so great that coach Self called him the most consistent of the three freshmen big men in practice. "He's a sponge, and he's just picking stuff up," Self said. "He's starting to get it. Now is the game still too fast for him? Yes, but it's not quite as fast for him as it was before." Kaun began playing basketball his sophomore year of high school after coming to the United States from Russia, and his ability to learn quickly has paid off at Kansas. "He's definitely a great listener and a very coachable kid," senior forward Wayne Simien said. "I think it's something that's helped him progress and come along this far. Hopefully, he'll continue to make those jumps." Kaun remains one of four candi "He's definitely a great listener and a very coachable kid. I think it's something that's helped him progress and come this far. Hopefully, he'll continue to make those jumps." Wayne Simien Senior forward dates — along with junior forward Christian Moody, freshmen forward Darnell Jackson and freshman center C.J. Giles — for the final starting position. Self said the fifth starter would be relied upon to do the little things, such as rebound and screen, and that Kaun was willing to do whatever it took to earn playing time. "He says, 'Coach, just tell me what me to do,'" Self said, "And he'll try to do it." Kaun said that starting for a team as talented as Kansas would be an honor, but it would not be his main focus. "I think for me it's more important to help the team in any way I can, whether I'm starting or not," Kaun said. Teammates agreed that Kaun had greatly progressed since first arriving at Kansas.

John Tran/KANSAN Volleyball swept again on the road BY BILL CROSS bcross@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER COLUMBIA, Mo. — The Kansas volleyball team lost its second straight match last night. As if that wasn't bad enough news for coach Ray Bechard's team, it's the second straight sweep by a Big 12 Conference rival. Kansas lost in three games to Missouri, 23-30, 26-30, 25-30. The team lost to Kansas State in similar fashion Saturday. Freshman opposite hitter Emily Brown, who had five kills on the night, said it would not be easy to recover from the two losses. "We need to beat teams that are going to be in the tournament, and K-State and Missouri were good opportunities to do that," she said. "Not getting either one is definitely a disappointment." With a narrow lead, sophomore outside hitter Jana Correa served for the lavhawks. On the next volley, outside hitter Paula Caten's elbow hit Lima's face as they were running for the same pass. Lima stayed down for three minutes before Bechard helped her stand up and walk off the court. Her teammates immediately fell to a 6-8 deficit before a run led by the serving of senior middle blocker Ashley Michaels tied the game 10-10. Then Lima returned and gave her team a 12-10 lead with a quick kill. "She was very courageous, but we have been depending on her a little too much." Bechard said of Lima. The Jayhawks remained competitive until the score reached 19-19, when Missouri outside hitter Shen Danrui's jumps served took over. She reeled off five consecutive points after a kill by teammate Lisa Bovd. Serving became a factor again when Missouri libero Tatum Ailes nailed her thirdace of the set to give her team a 27-20 advantage. "How come it can't swing the other way?" Coach Ray Bechard said. "That's the way you've got to look at it, especially on the road." It looked like the momentum might fall his way in game two. The Jayhawks fought their way out of a 11-18 deficit to the tie at 23, but the Tigers' balanced offense led them to the victory. SEE VOLLEYBALL ON PAGE 9A Brothers dedicated to hockey Editor's note: Athletes at the University of Kansas are more than just victories and statistics — they're real people with opinions on sports, life and love. Each Thursday, Kansan sportswriter Shane Kucera sits with a student athlete and discusses issues beyond the playing field. When Geoff and Dave Knight wear their Kansas Ice Hockey Club t-shirts, they are often stopped and questioned by students on campus: "Do we really have a hockey team?" Geoff is a fifth-year senior and the team president. Dave is a junior and team treasurer. Yes, Kansas does have a hockey team. Though many KU students and alumni aren't aware of the team, Geoff and Dave's commitment isn't affected. PETER BROWN The brothers do double duty, serving as both players and administrators for their team. That's how it goes for some of the lesser-known and lesser-funded club teams here at Kansas. SHANE KUCERA skucera@kansan.com GOING DEEP While the basketball team flies on a private jet with a food buffet, the hockey team is left to find its own sponsors, pay for its own gas on road trips and drive 30 minutes to Kansas City, Kan., for every game and practice. The Toronto natives dedicate valuable time to their favorite sport, expecting nothing in return but the chance to play hockey and go to school. Geoff: It was very much hockey oriented. I started at 4 and Dave started at 5, so it's basically like we say we're Canadian so it's now our job to play hockey. This week the brothers tell us about their experiences with hockey and more. Athletes like Geoff and Dave may define the truly dedicated athlete. Q: Does hockey seem more intense in Canada then here? Q: What was it like growing up in Canada? G: I don't know if it's more intense. It is like a one-sport deal, and hockey is the sport in Canada. but it's definitely like the passion for the game is just like what football is to Texas. D: We had a nice thing going last year, but this year we're still trying to get back the fan base from last year. Usually 200 or 300 people roughly. G: There are hockey players on our $5 bill, so yeah, they do it seriously. Q: What kind of following does the hockey team have? The first game we had a decent crowd against Missouri. G: Last year we had maybe over 300 people at the games at the end of the year. We're trying to get that back. We're trying to get some sort of party bus to take people to the games. The biggest problem is that there's not a rink in Lawrence. D: Yeah, the main reason we don't have bigger following is because we don't have a rink here. People have to drive 30 minutes to K.C. now.

While refinishing the hardwood floors in his home last winter, Lincoln Lewis began to feel a little dizzy. Lewis had suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning because of a ventilation problem with his hot water heater. Lewis said afterwards he called the gas company to come and look at his heater, and the leak was fixed for free. "The threat is real," said Rich Barr, Douglas County fire marshall. "With the temperature dropping there is increase in the possibility of poisoning." Jean Kozlowski, a pharmacist for Missouri Poison Control, said the first sign of poisoning was a headache that ran right across the front of the forehead. Soon, the headache will move to a throbbing pain in the temples. The use of gas range stoves, hot water heaters, furnaces and portable heating devices becomes more prevalent, and so does the potential for carbon monoxide to leak into the breathing air of living spaces. Barr said. Other signs include weakness, dizziness, blurry vision and a person can even collapse. More serious side effects are an increase in heart rate and breathing rate.

The event was one in a series of dialogues sponsored by the Multicultural Resource Center, Office of Multicultural Affairs and Diversity Peer Education Team. Before taking her SAT, Andrea Chao, Lawrence High School senior, checked two boxes: Chinese and Caucasian. She said she was sure it made the counting machines crazy. Corey Collier, Shawnee senior, said she always checked "other," but "other" was not her ethnicity. Collier's mother is white and her father is black. Her mother raised her to just be human, not white or black, she said. Collier said she knew she was different, but her ethnicity was never an issue. "I never check one box," Chao said. "I am two ethnotypes." Seventeen people attended the event last night, which was held from 7 to 9 at the Centennial Room in the Kansas Union. What would Senate do? Funding religious speakers a difficult task for senators BY LAURA FRANCOVIGLIA lfrancoviglia@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Preacher-turned-atheist Dan Barker will speak at the University of Kansas on Nov. 17 without funding from Student Senate. The Society of Open Minded Atheists and Agnostics said the speaker would give an academic lecture on the separation of church and state with background from the speaker's life and a question-and-answer session. Last week student senators decided not to fund $1,250 for the group's speaker for two reasons: the advertisement senators saw contradicted the said purpose of the lecture and the speaker did not provide text from the speech SEE DIVERSITY ON PAGE 6A after a request from the finance committee chairman, Ryan Faulconer. When it comes to funding religion there are no set lines, said Jeff Dunlap, student body vice president. Senate has struggled with funding religious and political groups for the past two years because Appendix 1 of the Senate Rules and Regulations says Senate funds cannot be used to fund partisan activities or religious activities. Senate funds student organizations that are open to all students, but funding for speakers and special events has more regulations. When considering funding a speaker for a religious organization, Dunlap said there was a distinction. The content cannot be evangelical, but Senate can fund academic lectures with a religious perspective. But still, he said, the line between religious perspective and religious indoctrination wasn't always clear Arthur Jones, Student Senate Executive Committee chairman, disagreed. He said deciding which religious organizations to fund isn't that complicated. "We're not going to fund any group who either promotes or talks bad about any religion or religious ideals," said Jones, Dallas junior. About 10 weeks ago, Senate decided to fund a speaker for Ichthus, a Christian organization. Jones sponsored the bill, which requested $900 for the honorarium and room rental costs. Faulconer, Colorado Springs, Colo. senior, said he did not request text from Ichthus' speaker because the group assured the finance committee that neither a testimonial nor a religious service would be included in the lecture. The speaker was Gary Haugen, the founder of the International Justice Mission. The International Justice Mission helps people suffering from injustice and oppression in the world, according to the mission's Web site, www.ijm.org.

Robert Minor, the keynote speaker, will be focusing on progressive issues, fears that are outside of reality, and having the right to love who you want to love in his speech "Dealing with religion when you've tried everything else and nothing seems to work." "My emphasis is on moving forward and not concentrating on the past," the professor of religious studies said. Minor wants students to not get sidetracked by the fears of society and to keep moving forward.

Minor said. "It just needs to be talked about." "It's a good thing for KU students because it is a chance to learn about diversity and different methods for leadership," Jimmie Manning, graduate student from Liberal, said.

It began with members of Queers and Allies wanting to have a leadership exchange among other Kansas universities and colleges, Manning said. The group has conferences every three months and is made up of mostly KU students, but students from other schools are starting to join. Afterwards activities will continue throughout the evening with a lock-in party at the ECM. "It's grown quit a bit from the first time we met." Manning said.

Kathleen Sebelius wants a closer examination of how well school districts spend their tax dollars, her spokeswoman said. A proposal that Sebelius was to announce today followed months of review by a working group of business and education leaders who have been searching for ways to make education spending more efficient. Kansas spends $2.7 billion in state revenues on K-12 education, a figure that blossoms to more than $4.5 billion counting local and federal funds. Spokeswoman Nicole Corcoran declined to provide details before the afternoon news conference at which Sebellus was to outline her proposal. "She believes in having a full accounting of resources," Corcoran said. "She's doing the same with schools as she has with the rest of state government." Since taking office in 2003, Sebelius has sought to consolidate state programs, improve tax collections and sell excess property, including several thousand state-owned vehicles. House Speaker Doug Mays said legislators have already taken a step toward making districts more efficient, enacting a law this year to establish centers for education innovation at three state universities. Those centers are supposed to work with school districts to audit spending and find savings. "I have said all along that we need more accountability in how our school dollars are spent. I will be interested to see what she has to say." Maws said. Meanwhile, the Kansas Supreme Court continues to consider a lawsuit challenging the state's school finance system. The lawsuit alleges — and a lower court ruled that the system is unconstitutional because it distributes money unfairly, hurting minority and poor students. In January, Sebelius proposed phasing in tax increases of more than $300 million over three years to provide additional money for schools. Legislators rejected her plan and numerous other proposals for increasing education funding. Some legislators, particularly conservatives, argued that the state hasn't done enough to make sure that school districts spend money wisely.

Steven Bartkoski/KANSAN CAMPUS University ROTC prepares for Veterans Day activities A former Vietnam prisoner of war and retired Air Force lieutenant will highlight the University of Kansas' Veterans Day observation on Tuesday. The observation will begin at 4 p.m. with a joint retreat ceremony at the Strong Hall flapole. Chancellor Robert Hemenway is scheduled to attend the ceremony. At 4:30 p.m., Barry Bridger, a retired Air Force lieutenant, will speak at a tribute to veterans in Woodruff Auditorium. On Jan. 23, 1967, Bridger's F-4 Phantom jet was shot down while flying over North Vietnam. He was listed as missing in action until Vietnamese officials acknowledged that he was a captive at a prison camp known as Hanoi Hilton in 1970. Two 24-hour vigils will be held at the World War II Memorial Campanile and the KU Vietnam Memorial, starting at 6 p.m. KU ROTC cadets and midshipmen from the Army, Navy, Marines and Air Force units will participate in the events. Candlelight vigils are from 6 p.m. Nov. 11 until 6 p.m. Nov. 12. Air Force ROTC Detachment 280 Arnold Air Society Ennis C. Whitehead Squadron and the KU Veteran Services. The events are sponsored by the KU Ross Fitch Westar Energy's CEO to speak Monday on business ethics Jim Haines, Westar Energy's chief executive officer, will deliver the School of Business' eighth Anderson Chandler lecture at 7:30 p.m. Monday in the Lied Center. The event is free, and tickets are not required. Haines' lecture is titled "Corporate Governance, Business Ethics and Individual Responsibility." The school targeted Haines because of his background in business ethics. He was a former professor of business ethics at the University of Texas at El Paso, said Toni Dixon, director of communications for the business school. She also said that Haines had to deal with a number of ethical problems created by his predecessors once he took the helm of the company in December 2002. Dixon said previous presenters of this lecture included David Broder, a syndicated columnist for The Washington Post, and Robert Novak, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist. Parking commission to hold public forum on Wednesday The University of Kansas Parking Commission will hold a public forum about parking next week. The commission, made up of students, faculty, staff and administrators, is holding the meeting to discuss the Parking Department's policies, rules, fees and the general state of parking on campus, said Donna Hutline, director of parking services and member of the commission. The chairman of the commission, Tom Mulinazi, professor of engineering, will summarize comments the commission has received from e-mails and what the commission is currently working on. After Mulinazzi's summary, the floor will then be turned over to the public. Andy Hyland People are encouraged to speak at the meeting, but they may also send comments in written form to the chairman. People may also e-mail comments to kupark@ku.edu. Issues arising from these comments will be included in the chairman's summary at the start of the meeting. Topics and themes from the meeting will form the commission's agenda for the rest of the year. Hultine said. The meeting will be at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Gridiron Room in the Burge Union.

"If you don't think about this while you're students, you won't be prepared to exercise your profession as ethically as you could," Davis said. Josephson, a former law professor and founder of CHARACTER COUNTS! nationally known character education system, will moderate two panel sessions focused on ethics 1 JOSEPHSON He will be speaking on ethics in society as a whole, Davis said. "We need ethics work in our country," Davis said. "It's all about how you live." Every company is profit-driven and would not behave ethically unless it had to, said "Ethics cost money." Sanders said. Val Sanders, Indianapolis, Ind., senior and business student. The government and the customers are the main forces keeping companies in line ethically, he said. The government can impose laws requiring ethical practices and customers can vote with their feet by not buying products from unethical companies. Kate Harper agreed that the lust for money often overrides ethics. In the professional world, people often behave according to the "it's not personal; it's business" mentality, Harper. Perry junior, said. "It's sad," she said. "Morality is necessary for society to function." Sean Fresen is a former business student who left the School of Business because he thought it taught students how to use greed to get ahead. Greed shapes people's goals, he said. "People build themselves up to be CEO," Fresen, Chicago junior, said. Businesses' priorities need to be people, both their employees and their customers, he said. Josephson will moderate both a luncheon panel discussion at noon on the Holiday Inn Holidome, 200 McDonald Drive, and a 7.30 p.m. panel discussion at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Some of the other panelists will include Chanceellor Robert Hemenway, men's basketball coach Bill Self and Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. Memorial Union. The sessions are open to the public. Josephson is the founder and president of the Josephson Institute of Ethics. Based in Los Angeles, the Institute works with corporations, government agencies, nonprofit organizations and schools to provide confidential consultations, ethnic audits, keynote addresses, seminars and customized trainings, according to its Web site www.character-counts.org. Through the Institute, Josephson founded CHARACTER COUNTS! The system reaches five million young people through the CHARACTER COUNTS!

The restaurant is closing its doors to business tomorrow. Smoking ban, less traffic grills Captain Ribman's Meat Market Joshua Kendall /KANSAN - Edited by Ashley Doyle BY STEPHANIE FARLEY starley@kansan.com KANSEI SAST WINTER Typically, a business' earnings are higher the second year, said Rich Davis, owner of Captain Ribman's Meat Market. That didn't happen this year for Davis. The Meat Market, 811 New Hampshire St., will close for good tomorrow. The bar and grill opened on May 28, 2003, and was in its second year of business. The Meat Market replaced The Blue Jacket, which had been at that location since July 2001. through slow times. Davis, who is also co-creator of the Captain Ribman comic strip that appears in The University Daily Kansan, said the smoking ban was one of the factors in the Meat Market's closing. Business has been down 30 percent in sales since the ban went into effect on July 1. The percentage includes the loss of business caused by the smoking ban and the shift of business traffic to other parts of Lawrence. Davis said small businesses like his don't have deep pockets to dig into to push "We just don't have the ability to weather the storm," Davis said. Since the smoking ban started, Davis said he had not seen one Lawrence city commissioner come to The Meat Market and ask how the ban had affected the restaurant. Sue Hack, the lone city commissioner who voted against the ban, said she had gone to The Meat Market since the ban began. Hack said she had asked some bar and restaurant owners how the ban had affected them. "I hate to see someone come into Lawrence and not succeed," Hack said. David Schauner, city commissioner, said he thought it was too early to tell how the ban had affected businesses. No decision the commission makes is ever going to make everyone happy, and the reasons for the ban were sound, he said. The Meat Market is not the only establishment the ban has affected. Tanner's Bar & Grill's sales have been down by 20 to 30 percent since the ban started, said Susan Wood, day manager at Tanner's, 1540 Wakarusa Drive. Tanner's only been open since September 2003 but Wood said she could tell a difference business. Wood doesn't see those people anymore. The numbers have dropped and there's no other feasible cause. Wood said. "My bar used to be lined with smokers every lunch." Wood said. Sean Gerrity, owner of Henry T's Bar & Grill, said bar sales were initially off by 25 percent when the ban first went into effect. Henry T's, 3520 W. Sixth St., has been able to gain back some sales by accommodating smokers by installing heaters out on the patio. The heaters cost the restaurant about $3,000 to purchase. The root of the problem is that bars and restaurants don't really sell food and drinks, said Phil Bradley, executive director for the Kansas Licensed Beverage Association. They sell fun and ambiance. Bradley said. Customers aren't coming into businesses and staying and when they do stay, they're not staying for very long. People can buy food at grocery stores and alcohol at liquor stores, but they go to bars and restaurants to get the atmosphere, The ban causes a roller coaster effect, Bradley said. When a business is losing money, staff gets cut. When staff gets cut then the service might become slower because there are fewer people. Customers will think the service is subpar and they won't come back, he said. "If I could have a Thanksgiving wish, it would be that the city commission would be willing to work with us to find a compromise," Bradley said. Davis said the shift of business development away from the downtown area had also affected the traffic to his business. Davis pointed to new businesses springing up around the intersection of 31st and Iowa streets as an example. If a person wants to shop in that part of Lawrence and wants to eat something afterwards, he or she are not likely to drive all the way to downtown to eat. They're going to eat at a closer restaurant, he said. "I absolutely love this business and I'm heartbroken that it's not able to go forward," Davis said. The bar at The Meat Market will be open to the public tonight and tomorrow night from 9 p.m. to around 2 a.m., or whenever people are ready to leave, Davis said. This just gives people a chance to their goodbyes. People were already saying their goodness on Monday night. At about 11 p.m., 20 people surrounded the bar at the Meat Market, just talking. Valerie Hooper, Hutchinson sophomore, was one of at least 15 employees there Monday night. Hooper needed a job last summer so she interviewed with Davis for a position at the Meat Market. Now, Hooper lost her part-time waitressing job and is looking for another after Christmas break. Hooper got a call 8 a.m. Monday from Davis saying the restaurant was closing. She said she loved the Meat Market because everyone got along. "It hasn't settled in yet," Hooper said. Davis said the goodbyes were just as difficult for him. "I'm going to miss these guys." Davis said.

Is anyone even surprised? Ms. Simpson was set to perform on NBC's Nov. 23 episode of Saturday Night Live. A technical miscause caused what was unmistakably a tape of her voice to begin playing before she was ready to lip-sync to it. A visibly confused and embarrassed Simpson then favored the crowd with an unusual dance routine before bolting from the stage. Everyone from the crowd in attendance to a visible SNL producer mouthing "Oh my God" in the background were completely shocked at the incident In an interview with a Los Angeles-area radio station, her manager-father Joe Simpson insisted that the tape everyone heard was merely a vocal-guide Simpson needed to use due to a particularly bad case of acid reflux disease that had caused her vocal cords to swell. Besides, he reasoned, all performers use these so-called vocal guides, from Celine on down. As a music lover, I was more offended by that his vulgar display of deceit than that of Janet Jackson's famous Super Bowl mishap that devastated the country and corrupted the nation's youth. Apparently, I was not the only one either. There are already several very amusing Internet sites dedicated to the lip-syncing fiasco, and even the message boards at Ashlee's own Web site are still not functioning. Betrayed fans caused traffic far too great for the site to handle, as angry messages directed to Simpson numbered in the thousands. Unfortunately for the ears of the nation that has blessed the world with jazz, blues, and good old rock and roll, this is only one symptom of a much bigger problem concerning the recording industry. Recording companies today award rides straight to the top of the charts to those who possess a certain look that will sell the greatest number of albums, not to individuals who are the most talented.. Because the same small groups of people and companies own all the facets of production and distribution, they essentially decide who and what PERSPECTIVE --- JOHN BARRETT opinion@kansan.com is going to be popular. Except for some of the more underground music scenes, gone are the days when artists slowly built up a fanbase through hard work and effort, playing in smoky bars and opening for more successful musicians. Instead, record companies carefully craft and market an image of pseudosexuality, slap it in heavy rotation on all 1,000 of their radio stations, and then rake in the profits. Since when are Paris Hilton and Hillary Duff musicians? After all the tweaking that goes into those vocals, anyone can sound decent. Just as Ashlee Simpson so flawlessly demonstrated on national television, the actual music is really the least important aspect of the entire product. In a scene dominated by Clear Channel-approved imitations of imitations, it's not astonishing to see deception of this type from any of the Top 40 radio artists. However, performers can't do this to their fans. It's not what the people paid for, and it isn't fair to charge $50 to listen to a cassette tape at a concert. The only thing missing from these types of concerts is the album packaging that drives the price of albums up to $22. For now, it's the record companies that decide what is going to be popular. They are in control of the airwaves, and their profit-driven formulaic approach to music is damaging an important and enjoyable part of the human experience. This is something that needs to change.

STAYSKAL TRIDUNE MEDIA SERVICES 11/04 Wayne Stayski/TRIBUNE Democrats must endure, prevail GUEST PERSPECTIVE Watching the election results come in Tuesday night was like watching Kansas let its lead slip against Syracuse in the 2003 men's basketball national championship. That same sinking feeling. Even before the results gave Bush the clear lead in Ohio, I couldn't watch anmore. GUEST PERSPECTIVE It's a hard time to be a Democrat. After all of the talk about the party being mobilized and the theory that the polling was inaccurate, we've lost not only the White House, but more seats in Congress as well. Another four years of President Bush feels like a bad dream. The Democrats I know all express a sense of loss, fear and disconnect with their country after this defeat. And it leaves us wondering, where did we go wrong? STEPHANIE LOVETTI oninion@kansan.com Well, I don't think we went wrong. We believed in the politics of hope. We believed that the American people deserve the truth. We believed that, surely, Americans couldn't honestly say they are better off now than they were four years ago. But it's hard to beat an incumbent. And for whatever reason, not enough Americans were convinced by our message. I don't think we were naive to believe that the Democrats would turn out and swing the election. We just forgot that the Republicans are the kings of turnout and they, too, knew the importance of this election. We may be in the (bare) minority in Congress and ignored in the White House, but we must not let this stop us from putting the Bush administration in check. We do have one thing to be thankful for: The Democratic Party is still going to be united against Bush and we have articulated a clear vision for this country. As one Democratic operative told The New York Times, "With 120 million people voting, at some point it's got to settle in with us that there are just more of them than there are of us." The same strategist expressed fear that Democrats will now fight internally over how to combat another four years of Bush. If that happens, we Democrats are in trouble. We need unity now more than ever. And at the least, we must stop Bush from doing more damage to the United States and its reputation. That may mean blocking Supreme Court nominations. It may mean voting down spending in Iraq. It will certainly mean stopping the renewal of the USA PATRIOT Act. But the only way these things are possible is if we are able to reach out to some Republicans in Congress. Democrats can't do this alone; it's going to take a bipartisan effort to keep Bush from wreaking havoc. Now that this bitter fight is over, we will only truly be the losers if we are unable to move past it. Democrats have got to take a deep breath and start working again. As this week's elections have shown, the current partisan divide in our country stands to hurt us more than them. It's OK for us to hurt for a while. But it's up to us to keep our own apocalyptic predictions about another four years from coming true. The Republicans certainly aren't going to look out for our interests. The next four years are going to be about endurance.

Tuition hike hurts all students Could you go out right now and buy a new iPod? How about two of them? How about three? No? Well, you better work on that. Why, you ask? Because buying three shiny new iPODs would run you about $900, the amount most of you will be paying every year if the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences passes its differential tuition plan. Do I have your attention now? Good. There are probably more than a few students on this campus who have no idea what I'm talking about when I say differential tuition. It's a fun name, isn't it? But to keep things simple, let's call what it is: a tuition hike. You're never going to hear that from members of the administration, though. After all, they are the ones who managed to assemble a five-year plan of tuition hikes and sell it as "tuition enhancement." It's enhanced a few things around campus most notably my debt. GUEST COMMENTARY So what is this new tuition hike all about? Well, for every credit hour you take in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, you'll pay an extra amount of tuition on top of regular tuition. most notably my debt. BRIAN THOMAS datkinson@kansan.com GUEST COMMENTARY This extra bit would be the "differential" part. In the current proposal, that amount would be $30 per credit hour after a two-year phase in. That money would stay with CLAS to pay for new projects, including the plan to gut Wescoe Hall and rebuild it, and to add a new natural sciences building next to Malott Hall. I'll be the first to admit it, the thought of Wescoe being torn apart puts a smile on my face. A new natural sciences building is needed and renovations to other buildings, such as Fraser, Blake and Lindley halls, are also welcome. So the administration wants to have a "dialogue" with students. Well, actually, just CLAS students. After all, why should the college have to listen to anybody else? For starters, no CLAS students are required to take Drawing I, but all the Art and Design students are required to take English 101. In fact, I can probably count the number of CLAS students taking Art and Design classes this semester on my fingers and toes. legislature hasn't really been inclined to fund public education recently, especially for the University of Kansas. And rather than spend time lobbying to fix that mentality, CLAS administrators figured it would be easier to charge us instead. After all, if something is hard, don't even try. A wonderful message for them to be teaching us if I've ever heard one. Maybe next month they'll teach us to jump off bridges with all the other cool kids. And that's perhaps the least of the problems. Isn't this a state university? Isn't the state supposed to being paying for stuff like this? And aren't we in the middle of a five-year plan to "enhance" my tuition? Sure. All of those things are absolutely true. But the administration doesn't want to go to Topeka to ask for some help. That would be hard. The So how do we stop this from happening? The administration says it will stop if students don't seem to be in favor of the plan. What would that entail? The administrators don't know yet — or won't tell. So they're having public meetings to discuss the whole plan, and you're invited. Well, you're kind of invited. They were nice enough to send out an ambiguous e-mail about "building a new vision." The next meeting is from 5 to 6 p.m. Monday in 3140 Wescoe Hall. You might want to attend. Unless, of course, you can afford those iPods. And after the first meeting was full of angry students yelling, they were nice enough to call the department heads and ask them to invite "like-minded" students. But don't think of it as stacking the deck against you. Think of it as the deck being "enhanced" against you.

Senior in English Medical school after high school Students cut costs, time with UMKC's six-year medical degree program THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — When Tiffany Williams graduated from high school in 1999 she wrestled with a choice: take off across the country to prestigious Duke University or head downtown to University of Missouri-Kansas City. Williams chose UMKC, and not because it was close to home. She chose it because at 18 and right out of high school Williams was accepted into its six-year medical program. Now at an age when other medical students are just getting the hang of anatomy class, Williams is applying for residencies in physical medicine and rehabilitation. She graduates in May with her M.D. and a bachelor's in liberal arts. "I have a friend who's 28, and he's doing the same thing I'm doing now," said Williams, who has sent out about a dozen applications to residency programs across the country. "He won't graduate until he's 30, and I wouldn't graduate at 24." She said it was difficult to turn down Duke. "It's the whole name thing. It was hard for me to get past that and realize that this is not about the name, and that it's about what I want to do with the rest of my life." The University of Missouri Kansas City Medical School is one of about 50 medical schools in the country that takes students directly out of high school. About seven of those schools offer six-year combined degree programs. The others are seven- or eight-year programs. The UMKC program, which "I's the whole name thing. It was hard for me to get past that and realize that this is not about the name, and that it's about what I want to do with the rest of my life." Tiffany Williams UMKC student was developed in 1971, gets about 600 applications for its 100 openings each year. Students from Missouri must have at least 26 on their ACT or a 1,200 SAT score, said Basma Jaffri, administrative assistant to the council on selection for the UMKC Medical School. The medical school admission test, or MCAT, isn't required. About 60 percent of the students are female, and 19 percent of the students drop out, she said. UMKC is one of the only ones to offer a six-year combined medical degree program as its main option, said M. Brownell Anderson of the Association of American Medical Colleges. She said the six-year programs have been successful and are a good way for students to cut costs. "In some ways (six-year programs are) going to be more important as the costs for medical school continue to increase, and medical schools are going to have to find ways to produce physicians cost effectively. "That's one issue, certainly, fewer years in school," Anderson said. Internet piracy of movies is not nearly as rampant as in the music industry, largely because huge movie files can take hours Studios to sue pirated movie swappers LOS ANGELES Hollywood studios said yesterday they would file hundreds of lawsuits later this month against individuals who swap pirated copies of movies over the Internet. global revenue because of physical piracy, or bogus copies of videos and DVDs of its films. The move is a reversal of the studios' earlier reluctance to follow the aggressive legal path taken by the music industry. Voting is good, drinking is better. Since 1936 HARBOUR LIGHTS 1031 Massachusetts The MPAA claims the U.S. movie industry loses more than $3 billion annually in potential to download, in contrast to less than a minute for most songs. Videotaped copies of films in theaters often are digitized or burned off DVDs and then distributed on file-sharing networks accessed with software programs like eDonkey, Kazaa and Grokster. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS But Dan Glickman, the new head of the Motion Picture Association of America, said the lawsuits were necessary now, before high-speed Internet access makes downloading pirated copies of movies easier. "This was not an easy decision, but it must be done now before illegal online file sharing of movies spins out of control." Glickman said Thursday. Glickman did not say how many lawsuits would be filed, although sources who spoke on condition of anonymity said several hundred individuals would be named in the first round. Glickman said the legal campaign would be ongoing. Spyware is watching you, even when you think you're alone. It can slow you down when you need your machine to run as fast as it can. Dump digital hitchhikers. The lawsuits would seek civil penalties of as much as $50,000 per download and as much as $150,000 if the infringement is proven to be willful. The lawsuits will be accompanied by an ad campaign featuring a photo of a finger on a computer mouse and the obscured screen names of people the MPAA says are breaking the law. "Is this you?" the ad reads. "If you think you can get away with illegally trafficking in movies, think again."

Faulconer and Jones didn't know of any senators who went to the lecture, which was presented Sent. 12. "We have to rely on people by word of mouth," Faulconer said. Both Faulconer and Jones said their religious preferences did not affect their decision making as senators. Jones is a member of United Methodist Campus Ministries. Faulconer said he did not attend religious services but rather viewed religion from an academic standpoint. For Senate to fund a religious group, the group first has to prove that the speaker or event will be secular and will not give testimonials or conversion stories. Jones said. When senators denied SOMA last week, they questioned the speaker's purpose because of the advertisement SOMA had to promote the event. Jones said the advertisement suggested a speech against fundamentalism and for freethought, therefore endorsing one side. IF SOMA members explicitly said that Barker would give an academic speech on the separation of church and state, and if the advertisement had not been contradictory to the speaker's purpose, Jones said Senate would have happily funded it. During the Senate discussion of the SOMA speaker, Paul Mirecki, religious studies chairman and associate professor, said senators used language such as "testimonial" and "conversion." But he said neither he nor Andrew Stangl, president of SOMA, used the terms to describe the lecture. He said those were loaded terms steeped with religious connotation. Stangl, Wichita sophomore, said senators told him that if Senate denied funding to his organization, other religious organizations would have difficulty getting funding for their speakers as well. Dunlap said there was little guidance from the law on how to deal with religious groups and funding. Jones said Senate would have easily decided to fund SOMA's speaker if Senate had avoided funding any groups with religious or partisan groups until 2000. The rules changed with the Supreme Court Case Board of Regents, University of Wisconsin v. Southworth. The decision said student activity fees at universities could be used to fund groups that had neutral viewpoints. Funding the groups was not considered compelled speech and did not infringe upon First Amendment rights of Since the fall 2004 semester began, Student Senate has given $200 to the following religiously affiliated groups for needs, such as office supplies and postage: SEPARATING SENATE AND RELIGION Circle K United Methodist Campus Ministries 1chthus ICHTHUS KU Hillel American Baptist Student Fellowship Minded Atheists and Agnostics The Society for Open students. Jones said Senate's Rules and Regulations could more clearly state what religious and non-religious activities Senate would fund. He said though no senators had brought forth a bill to amend the Rules and Victory Campus Ministries Source: Student Senate Appendix 1 of the Student Senate Rules and Regulations says that Senate funds cannot be used to fund partisan activities or religious activities. Senate funding does not give student money to promote ideals or beliefs. Student Senate funds cannot be used for specific religious activities or materials, which include but are not limited to services or materials which include but are not limited to the following: religious texts worship or devotional services Regulations, it didn't mean it wouldn't happen later this year. services salaries for religious officials Student Senate funds for religious organizations can be used for but is not limited to the following: SOMA members will now have to fund Barker's lecture, but now Barker will not be bound by Senate guidelines. Keiv Spare, SOMA member, said the group had decided to take office supplies office supplies advertising advertising printing postage photocopying talent fees for academic lectures that do not constitute a religious service Source; Student Senate Rules and more liberties with the content of the presentation. Spare, Parsons senior, said the speaker would now focus on Barker's life experiences and his journey to becoming a freethinker. DIVERSITY: Panel addresses bi-racial, multi-racial issues Regulations - Edited by Anna Clovis CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A "When I started going to college I was told that I was just black." Collier said. The panelists at last night's dialogue were Chao; Collier; Jo Anne Grandstaff, associate editor of the Journal of Indigenous Nations Studies; Ryan RedCorn, KU graduate; and Lydia Young, Lawrence senior. Robert Page, director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs, moderated the panel and then divided the audience into groups to talk about the issues the panelists shared. "We want to promote dialogue on the topics to help understanding," said Santos Núñez, director of the Multicultural Resource Center. To some people, cultural background is everything, Núñez said. The dialogue's topic focused on the shared experience of what it's like to have to pick one race when you identify with more than one. Society wants to frame you as one race, based on first impressions, Núnez said. She said it was a problem with terminology, and we need to decide how we want to identify ourselves as a society. Last night's discussion marked the seventh year for the Diversity Dialogue series. The series has continued with positive responses from the Lawrence community, Núñez said. The last event of the semester is Dec. 2 at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union. It is titled "War of Words — how the diverse views of the war in Iraq have impacted the views of our international students." - Edited by Marissa Stephenson CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A CARBON: Checking vents, hot water heaters helps ensure safet percent, a seizure or coma can result. Kozłowski 'said that people who smoked already have a 3 to 7 percent carboxyhemoglobin level, which makes them more at risk for carbon monoxide poisoning.

Kozlowski said if a person was experiencing more than just a headache to the emergency room Lewis said at the time a trip to the emergency room may have seemed a bit overboard, but he was glad he went. water heater and furnace are positioned properly. Making sure the hoods are positioned directly over the vents ensures that fumes escaping from the appliances will be vented out of the house. "I definitely know a little more now," he said. There are simple household checks people can do to ensure their safety. Barr said. Such as checking their vents and making sure the hoods on both the hot "Also, make sure all the covers are on," Barr said. "That will contribute to proper venting also." Even a candle puts out carbon monoxide, so devices such as portable space heaters should be used with caution and avoided in small spaces, Barr said. Lewis was told to watch out for rust or deteriorated metal, because both could be signs that a leak is present. HEALTH EFFECTS ASSOCIATED WITH CARBON MONOXIDE Barr said that while no law requires carbon monoxide detectors to be placed in a house, they are always a good idea. Carbon monoxide detectors range in price from $20 to $70, and are sold at a variety of stores such as Westlake Ace Hardware, 711 W. 23rd St.; Target, 3201 Iowa St.; Wal-Mart.

"Phog" Allen. The basketball teams hope to give the building the best present possible — a national championship trophy. Allen Fieldhouse turns 50 years old this season. The Fieldhouse was dedicated March 1, 1955. Kansas beat Kansas State on that day in front of 17,228 fans. Celebrations for the Fieldhouse's 50th birthday are being planned around the March 2, 2005, game against Kansas State. Allen Fieldhouse has had several makeovers in its 50 years. Before the 1986-87 season, 600 seats were added to the original 15,200-seat arena. Just seven years later, before the 1994-95 season, the seating was expanded by 500 seats, making the overall seating 16,300. "We get to play in the best college basketball atmosphere in the nation," Self told fans at Late Night in the Phog. The capacity of Allen Fieldhouse ranks second in the Big 12. Jayhawk fans ranked eighth in the nation last year for average home attendance. Prior to the 1998-99 season, new restrooms, concession stands and an elevator were Coach Bill Self said the atmosphere in Allen Fieldhouse was unlike any other venue in the country. "We get to play in the best college basketball atmosphere in the nation Bill Self Men's basketball coach The University began honoring outstanding men's and women's basketball players before the 1992-93 season. Twenty-two jerseys hang from the ceiling in Allen Fieldhouse to honor outstanding players that have participated in Kansas basketball. Recent players who have been honored include Nick Collison, Drew Gooden, Raef LaFrentz, Paul Pierce and Tamika Dixon. added. The most recent upgrade to the Fieldhouse was added before the beginning of last season, when a massive Jayhawk replaced the drawing of the state of Kansas at center court. Kansas fans will have their first opportunity to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Allen Fieldhouse at 7 p.m. Sunday when the men's team will open the season with an exhibition game against Emporia State. In 2001, Sports Illustrated called the Fieldhouse the most underrated place to play in America. It has been good luck for past lajahawk teams, which have a combined record of 271. 21 in the Fieldhouse. Edited by Bill Cross Numbers tell story of the fieldhouse By PAUL BRAND pbrand@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITTER Throughout their history, the Kansas basketball teams have seen some amazing and awful statistical anomalies. For better or for worse, here are the most remarkable numerical achievements of Kansas basketball history. Basketball is a game of numbers and statistics. A single percentage point can often separate a victory from a defeat, a national title from a disappointing end 10. 3,649: From 1978-1981, Lynette Woodard compiled 3,649 points. The next closest competitor in Kansas history, Adrian Mitchell, is 1,525 points behind. Woodard also owns the top four individual-season records and has nine Kansas career records. 9. 70: On Jan. 3, 1989, the Brown Bears came to town. After 40 minutes of hell, the men's team sent them packing with a 115-45 drubbing that marks the largest margin of any victory in team history. 8. 71: Kansas dominated the Morgan State women's team on Dec. 8, 1993, in many ways. First, they scored a school-record 71 first-half points and finished with a 117-48 victory. Second, they tied a school record with 70 team rebounds. Finally, the 1993-1994 squad tied a mark with seven players scoring in double-digits. 7. 69: For the 1996-1998 and 2001-2003 men's Jayhawks, life was nothing but victory. The earlier set of seasons combined for 69 victories during a two-season stretch while the later teams won 63 times. Tragically, neither season ended with a national title. You can't win 'em all. 6. 31. Former women's coach Marian Washington was an institution of Kansas basketball for more than three decades. After pacing the sidelines for 51 seasons and tallying a 560-363 career record, Washington retired in 2004. Washington is responsible for 94 percent of the program's victories. 5. 2. Wilt Chamberlain is the only Kansas player to record a triple-double. Chamberlain did so twice with points, rebounds and blocks. Against Marquette on Dec. 8, 1956, he posted 39 points, 22 rebounds and 14 blocks. The second was a 40-point, 13-rebound, 12-block effort against Colorado on March 9, 1957. 4. 0-16: In the same season, the women's team endured an 0-16 conference record while the men's team became the only Big 12 team to put up a perfect 16-0 season. During the 2001-2002 campaign, Jayhawk fans cheered and cringed at the beauty of perfection and the agony of repeated defeat. 3 47. Forty-seven Jayhawks have reached the 1,000 point mark for their careers. The 2004-2005 roster features Keith Langford, who ranks 19th with 1,408 points and Wayne Simim, whose 1,065 points are good enough for 35th all-time. Aaron Miles is 96 points away from joining the historic club. 2. 328: During his 16 NCAA tournament games, Danny Manning scored 328 points. This magnificent four-season stretch started in 1985 and ended with the national title in 1988. In terms of postseason play, Mr. March also holds the Kansas records for field goals made, free throws made and points scored in one tournament with 163 for the six-game set in 1988. 1. 62: From Feb. 20, 1994 until Dec. 8, 1998, Kansas' men's team protected the house. During this stretch, the Jayhawks won 62 consecutive home games until having the streak snapped by Iowa with an 85-81 defeat. Beware the Phog.

National championship game, 2003. Down by three. Clock running down. Four seconds, three seconds... Lee stood in the left corner of the Louisiana Superdome, lining up the shot — his shot — the one he'd hit a thousand times while shooting with no one else around. Lee released the shot — his shot — the one that felt good off the fingertips and after it left his hand. But the shot would never make it to the basket. This is where the dream goes wrong. Syracuse guard Hakim Warrick, whom Lee did not see, rushed to the shooter, blocking the shot before it had a chance at destiny. Now, all Lee wants is another shot. "Every time I think about it, it just eats at me. It kills me," Lee said. "I haven't watched that more than five times. I can even remember sometimes watching the game and I cut it off before it even gets to that point." - * * Lee stops, brings his hand up to cover his mouth, then slowly pulls his fingers down toward his chin while looking down to the floor. The pain still hasn't gone away. "I mean, to be that close to a national title and not get it — it's something that just don't go away easily," Lee said. This summer was different than other summers for Mike Lee. Every morning he'd wake up. And every morning he'd think about the same thing. "I just tried to focus on getting better each and every day," Lee said. "Every morning I woke up, I can honestly say that I was working. In my mind, I was thinking, I've got to get back to a national title." That's all I want. I've got one more year left. I've come a long way to this point, and I want to go out the right war." But Lee did more than just think about getting back to the national championship. He worked harder than he ever had before. Every day, in addition to classes, he made sure to attend extra weight training, spend extra time in the gym and do extra work. "I made sure every day that I tried to do something to better myself," Lee said. "I just felt like it was about time. Obviously, my senior year is my last year, and I want to be able to do whatever I can to win a national championship." As a result, he showed up to early season practices in the best shape on the team. Coach Bill Self complimented his work ethic, saying he had the best pre-season of any of the players. "He's approaching each practice and each time out like it's the end of the year, which is what you have to do." Self said. "That's who he's playing so well " Lee knows this is his last opportunity. Lee's not the only one who thinks this is his time. The senior guard said his parents also inspired him to work harder, and helped him define his goals for this season. "I had a lot of talks with my father and my mom, some just about me personally and what I felt like I could bring to the game and bring to the team," Lee said. "We talked about just stepping outside of myself a little bit and letting go this year and doing everything I can." Lee said the talks focused him on the task at hand and becoming the best possible player he could be. And, although he said he wished his father didn't always know best, Lée said this time he thought it was wise to listen. "Me and my dad talk a lot about what he feels like I can be doing as a basketball player and how he sees me fitting into the team," Lee said. "I don't agree with everything he says, but for the most part, he's right, so I try to take that in and try to bring that out on the court." Lee has also worked to change his presence on the court. As a senior, he now leads his teammates by example. "He's always had a good attitude, but his attitude's even better, and it was good before." Sell said about this year's Lee. "He's a leader. He's confident. He's more focused. And just watch him walk around here. He acts like this is his team." Lee knows time is running out. This should be his team Lee will tell you he tries to keep it out of his mind, but the blocked shot always seems to come back. "I try as much as possible to not revert back to the shot that got blocked," Lee said. "I try not to think about it." Lee stops to look up, and you can almost see the four seconds running through his mind once again. KANSAS 25 Yes, Mike Lee still thinks about the shot — his shot. Mike Lee will always remember the baseline shot he missed against Syracuse in the 2003 national championship game. But he hopes to replace that memory with a hannier one from this season. Jared Soares/KANSAN "It felt good," Lee said, "but we'll never know because Warrick made a great play. That's going to go down in history as one of the greatest plays of all time." Lee hasn't thought much about how he would like the storybook ending to turn out this season. He is more concerned with taking back his dream. "The perfect scenario is just to win it," Lee said. "As long as on that last day in April we're cutting down dins, that's all that matters. I don't care if it takes five overtimes or if we put it away late, as long as we win." "Because believe me, it hurts to get that far and lose in that game. That hurts. I don't want that feeling anymore." Lee knows the feeling all too well — in fact, it's made him what he is today. It's gotten him into the best shape of his life and helped him become a leader. It's made him mature and heightened his appreciation for his final college season. And it's made him appreciate the shot he had, and also the one he has. "I feel like I was fortunate to even be in that situation. I try to use that as fuel to let me keep going." Lee said. "Hopefully, this year, I'll get another shot at it." - Edited by Janette Crawford New conditioning program has guard primed for success By BLI Cross bcross@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Senior guard Blair Waltz has played basketball at Kansas for four years. Before that, she earned 12 varsity letters in high school in basketball, volleyball and softball. The senior guard was recruited by Division I schools in all three sports. But she's a better athlete now than she ever been. She credited first-year coaches Bonnie Henrickson and Andrea Hudy with the change. "They have put us in the best possible position," Waltz said. "The conditioning is the hardest it's been since I've been here." IUUUUUUUUUU "It's a hundred times different," Waltz said of her physical condition compared to previous years. "I think we're all in the best shape we can be." WALTZ She said she hoped the greater work in the offseason would lead to less injuries on the court. Waltz, who has been a key in the Kansas rotation since she arrived in 2001 and started 14 games that season, has never had a problem with durability. She sustained a stress fracture in her right foot as a freshman, but missed only four games. After playing every game her sophomore year, Waltz missed one game last season because of illness. "I felt like I was missing out," she said of her five career missed games. She said conditioning would be especially important this season, as the team fields only nine players. "It's alright because most teams usually only have an eight-person rotation," she said. "We're obviously going to have to be in shape." The 2004 preseason is off to a rocky start, though, as Waltz was not able to participate in the women's team's first-ever Late Night in the Phog scrimmage because of a jaw injury. "I almost broke it during individual workouts," she said. "I was very, very, very disappointed." Teammates said Waltz set the example in every workout and practice. Sophomore guard Sharita Smith said Waltz relished the leadership role. "Some days, when we're down and we don't feel like being here, she's the type of person that picks us up and gets us back into it," she said. Senior guard Aquanita Burras said other seniors admired Waltz's friendliness and on-the-court skills. "Blair's a great role model to everybody on this team," she said. "I even look up to her as a basketball player and a person. She's very open to anybody's ideas or anyone. You can come up and talk to her." roster short, so Waltz will likely see increased minutes. Last year, her total playing time was nearly half that of her sophomore season's. Three transfers left this year's Henrickson said she was pleased with Waltz's leadership and play in practice thus far. "Blair has shot the ball well," she said. Waltz said her only goal for this season was to see a superior effort out of all her teammates. "We have to go out there and compete in every single game," she said. "Win or lose, we'll play until the end." — Edited by Steve Vockrodt kansan.com The student newspaper of the University of Kansas kansan.com The student newspaper of the University of Kansas Front Page News Sports Arts Opinion Extra LAWRENCE AUTOMOSIVE DIAGNOSTICS INC. 842-8665 2858 Four Wheel Dr. M-F 7:30 - 5:30 - Transmission - Radiator - Brakes - Exhaust - Electrical - A/C Service - Clutch - C-V Joints - Batteries - Tune-Ups • Computer Diag • Transmission • Starters • Engine Repair Alignment • Quick Lube • Struts & Shocks & And more!

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 2004 BASKETBALL THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5B SANJAN ANSAN Niang: A player for the people 34 Junior forward Moulaye Niang stretched before a practice last season. Niang came to Kansas from Dakar, Senegal. He seriously considered transferring after last season, but a talk with his mother and the unexpected transfer of David Padgett kept Niang in Kansas. Jared Soares/KANSAN BY FRANK TANKARD ftankard@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWATER On Aug. 5, 2000, an airplane landed in San Diego. On board was a tall, skinny, 17-year-old from Senegal looking for an education and a chance to play college basketball. Moulaye Niang had grown up happily in Dakar, Senegal, a city of more than 2.5 million people, with his parents, two older brothers and five older sisters. He excelled in soccer, and later basketball. "A lot of people think of Africa as just all bad, you know, all bad fighting and people don't eat," Niang, a 6-foot-10 junior forward, said. "That's not the case. We weren't rich, but we were all right." But when an American scout offered him a chance to play basketball and finish high school at a private Christian school in the San Diego area, he seized the opportunity, and left his life behind. "With a diploma from the United States, I can pretty much work wherever I want to work," he said. "With a degree from Senegal, I probably can only work in Senegal." When Niang stepped off the plane, he knew little English and less about life in the United States. In his two years at El Cajon Christian, his life consisted mostly of studying and basketball. He didn't get out much, spending most Saturday nights at home with his host family. He graduated from El Cajon Christian in 2002 with averages of 16.2 points and 9.8 rebounds per game, and a 3.92 GPA. As a senior, he was selected to both the All-San Diego County team and the San Diego Union-Tribune All-Academic team. Niang had earned a scholarship to a college of his choice, and when Roy Williams courted him, he picked Kansas. "Here you play against the best and with the best every time," Niang said. "And I think that's the big factor if you want to improve your game and get better." At Kansas, he met other students from Senegal and quickly made new friends. "Living in California, I didn't go out a lot," he said. "I was always at home. When I came to Kansas, I had more freedom to go out and experience life." He also experienced snow for the first time that winter. Niang said he might have frozen to death if Wayne Simien's mother hadn't let him borrow a pair of long underwear. "Those kept me warm for the winter, and I'm thankful for that," he said. Niang played an average of 6.9 minutes per game his freshman season, averaging 1.3 points and 1.5 rebounds. Although he played little, he quickly became a favorite among Kansas students, who routinely yelled, "Moooo," whenever he stepped onto the court. "They make me feel at home; they make me feel that I'm welcome," he said. "It's not just on the basketball court. Everywhere I go, the fans like me, and I like the fans, because I respect every fan." Last season, under coach Bill Self, Niang's playing time dipped to 4.7 minutes per game, with his scoring and rebounding averages decreasing to 0.9 and 1.1 per game, respectively. After the season, he strongly considered transferring to either San Diego State or Texas Christian, where he would likely get more playing time. But after a talk with his mother and the unexpected transfer of freshman forward David Padgett to Louisville, which moved him up a spot on the depth chart, he decided to return for the 2004-2005 season. Niang said his mother told him, "Wherever you go, you got to make new friends, and that's just helping the team win, any possible way." Moulaye Niang Junior forward "M y per sonal goal is going to take time. Right now you already have friends, people that love you, and you love the players. Just find a way to help yourself get better so you can play more." With the addition of freshman big men C.J. Giles, Sasha Kaun and Darnell Jackson, Niang will have to fight for playing time once again. But he remains positive. BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealing@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER "My personal goal is just helping the team win, any possible way," he said. Edited by Stephanie Lovett When Kansas coach Marian Washington left, so did most of the team's post players. The perimeter players stayed, however, and will be crucial to the success of Bonnie Henrickson's first Kansas team. D. NICKENS Leading the perimeter players will be the job of junior Hallman. HALLMAN Last season, she led the team in three-pointers and contributed 6.9 points per game. Her point totals weren't as high as those of her freshman season, but this year, she should have an opportunity for a career season. Surveying what she had available to her at the start of the season. Henrickson included Hallman in her list of "pleasant surprises." "I think Erica Hallman can score," Henrickson said. If this team is to have any success this season, Hallman's going to have to do lots of that. While the Jahayhwks' leading scorer from last year, Crystal Kemp, does return to the team, many of last year's biggest contributors are gone. In addition, the team has lost a lot of size and depth at the post position. With Kemp the primary scoring threat from inside, opposing teams will be able to key on her, opening up chances for Hallman and others on the perimeter. "People are going to doubleteam Crystal, and we're going to have to kick it out and take the shots." Hallman said. Last season, Hallman went 33-90 with three-pointers. She was the team's primary outside threat all season, but the focus of the Jayhawks in scoring was getting the ball inside. This season, the team will not be able to do that and will have to use other options for putting points on the board, and to set up its inside game. "I think we'll be a lot more balanced," Hallman said. "We may even depend heavily on the outside." To prepare for this, Henrickson works on three pointers and perimeter shots constantly in practice. "In every shooting drill, there's always a three-point session." she said. Hallman's looking forward to the increased visibility she will have this season, as well as an ability to return to a style of play she experienced before coming to Kansas. "That's going to open stuff up for me." Hallman said. "I'm ready to score. I'm used to scoring, but I kind of changed my role when I got here. I'm looking forward to putting it up." With the sudden departure of senior Larisha Graves, Hallman will have an even more important role. Now, instead of having some experience alongside of her, Hallman will take a leadership role. Regardless of who joins Hallman on the perimeter, the team will be faced with playing an entirely new style of offense. In that new style, Hallman will have a chance to show off her skills. "This season is going to be a change," she said. "We're trying to reestablish tradition here." Edited by Danielle Hillix Show your KU spirit wherever you go. Put a Jayhawk in your wallet!

But the way he's responded to the role makes him unique, Self said. "He's in that role because the ball's in his hands," coach Bill Self said. "He cares more than anybody I've ever coached," he said. "He cares about how I'm feeling. He cares about how his teammates are feeling, what's going on with recruiting, how we're eating." Miles, who has been a point guard for his entire basketball career, said he'd always found himself in the leadership role. As a college freshman, Miles was the starting point guard on a team that featured current NBA players Drew Gooden, Kirk Hinrich and Nick Collison. As the only starter in a star-studded freshman class, Miles was thrust into a leadership role. "All my life, people have told me a point guard's supposed to be a leader," Miles said. "That's something I believe." Miles said he would step up his leadership even more this year. "This is my last year, and I want it to be the best," Miles said. "Anything that I see that could be detrimental, I'm going to speak up and try to fix it." Senior forward Wayne Simien said Miles' leadership in the locker room was different than his on-court leadership. "He's a clown off the court. On the court, he's a general, a master at what he does," Simien said. "On the court, he's matured so much. Off the court, I don't think he's matured any at all." Simien said Miles' favorite pranks mirrored the humor of the Three Stooges. "He does slapstick stuff," he said. "I don't think too many people could tolerate him like we do." Miles said he sometimes felt like a freshman. "I'm remember the first time at Late Night when we sang Michael Jackson songs to our mothers," he said. "It's gone by real fast." And now Miles has a chance to tutor the next generation of jayhawks. For the first time in his career, he has a protégé: freshman guard Russell Robinson. "He's a big reason I came." Robinson said of Miles. "He's helped me adjust to college life a lot easier." Senior guard Mike Lee, who has played with Miles at Jefferson High School in Portland, Ore., said the team's five freshmen would have an opportunity to learn from a natural leader. "What he's doing now is what he's always been doing," Lee said of Miles. "He's always been a leader and he's always looked out for his teammates." Lee said "fearless" was the best word to describe his longtime friend and teammate. "If a big dude's trying to push Wayne, Aaron will be the first one to try to step up," he said. "He's got a lot of guts." Edited by Johanna M. Maska KANSAS 11 Kansan file photo Kansas senior point guard Aaron Miles celebrates the Jayhawks' home victory against Missouri last season. Miles has been a starter since his freshman year. This year, he hopes to play a crucial role in leading the Jayhawks to a national championship. Jayhawk counts military family as reason for success BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER Aquanita Burras talks about Michael Jordan, but if you pay close attention you start to understand the real influence in her life. that you can be." Growing up for a time in North Carolina and watching the Chicago Bulls games with her parents, Burras said the guard affected her by showing her the correct way to play. "He was an influence on me," the 5-foot-9 senior guard said, "by teaching me to be the best After saying the last part, Burras paused and couldn't help but smile. She has been in a military family too long. PENNIE A. MCKINNEY "Wait, that's an Army term," Burras said. BURRAS But she knows the military has been instrumental in allowing her to be here. Growing up in a military family, Burras moved during her childhood to numerous locations throughout the United States, including Colorado, North Carolina and Alaska. More than anything, the travel confirmed what it was that she loved to do: play basketball. "I was able to travel and do the things that I was able to do to get myself here." Burras said. "Everything was worth it." Burras said she also gained experience from the various moves and was able to learn more about the game. "The way that I got into basketball was by my father," Burras said. "By me traveling to different places, it gives you a different opportunity to see what other competition is out there and how people are able to play." In her two seasons at Kansas, Burras has been one of the most consistent players on the squad. She averaged 10.1 points per game last year after posting 10.5 points her sophomore season and has scored at least 10 points in 31 of her 57 games as a Jayhawk. "Aqua has an ability to get to the rim and has some athletics on the perimeter," said coach Bonnie Henrickson. Burras also grabbed 5.8 rebounds per game last season, despite being one of the shortest players on the court. Junior teammate Erica Hallman said she admired Burras because of her dedication to making herself better in the offseason. "She works hard, definitely in the weight room," Hallman said. "I think she's our hardest worker in the weight room, and you can probably see it from the cuts on her arms." Burras said despite her shorter stature, she had always had a secret desire to play inside as a post player. She might just get the opportunity this year, with Kansas experiencing both a lack of depth and size on the team. "I was told that I might be down there," Burras said. "Last year, I had a little dose of it. I'm looking forward to it, though." Burras said she was prepared to do a little more in what will be her final year as a Jayhawk. "I've taken on that leadership role this year," Burras said. "We just have three seniors and a smaller team, so we have to fit together anywhere we can."

Giddens made enormous strides emerging as one of the most explosive players on Kansas' roster. He earned Big 12 All-Freshman team honors and Honorable Mention All-Big 12. After speculation about him entering last June's NBA draft, Giddens is back to accomplish one goal: win. "I want to help this team win as many games as possible, the Big 12 Championship and win a national championship," Giddens said. Giddens said he didn't focus at all on an professional future, not letting the thought of NBA millions distract him from his goals at Kansas. "I can't think about that," Giddens said. "Right now I'm focused on being a sophomore here at Kansas, trying to help this team in any way that I can possible, be a good teammate and make my teammates around me better. If all of that happens, hopefully the puzzle pieces will come together and it equals a national championship." A native of Oklahoma City, the 6-foot-5 guard/forward was the third leading scorer for Kansas last year, averaging 11.3 points per game while grabbing 3.6 rebounds. He was forced He scored in double figures 21 times, recording a career high 24 points against Iowa State last February on 7-12 shooting from three-point range. Giddens led the Jayhawks in three-point percentage and three pointers made a season ago. Though he was the primary long-range option for the 'Hawks, Giddens' freshman season may be most remembered for his highlight-reel dunks and alley oops. into the starting lineup in the third game of the season after senior guard Michael Lee suffered a broken collarbone in practice. Giddens emerged as a consistent threat and started all but two games the rest of the season. Most players use the summer as a practice period to improve on different aspects of their games, but Giddens was limited primarily to bulking up in the weight room as he recovered from surgeries to his left foot and right knee that were performed shortly after the season's end last spring. Giddens' summer routine added 20 pounds to his lanky frame. Giddens also used the summer to further develop his relationship with Kansas coach Bill Self. "J.R. and I probably talk more than anybody," Self said. "We talk about a lot of things." For now, Giddens is healthy. He is not in prime shape from a conditioning standpoint, but physically he's 100 percent. His foot and his knee are fully recovered, and he should be in game shape when the exhibition season begins Nov. 7. "I feel really good right now," Giddens said. "I think I'm healthy. I'm not a spring chicken right now, but I feel all right." Giddens isn't flamboyant or cocky about his success on the court. He credits the seniors with helping him to develop as a basketball player and as a person last season and this past summer. "We have Aaron Miles, Mike Lee, Keith Langford and Wayne Simien," Giddens said. "Those guys are good. They've helped me out in so many different ways, as well as my other teammates. They help us out so much in the locker room, off the court and in the classroom. Those guys are real leaders, they're the backbone of our team." "J.R.'s not worried about what happens in the future," Self said. "He's worried about being as good as he can be here. If he's as good as he can be here, then he's got a pretty bright future." This may be Giddens' last season in Lawrence, but he won't tell you that — he doesn't think about that. KANSAS 16 This may be the season that vaults Giddens into the draft lottery, but for now he is focused on helping Kansas win a national championship. — Edited by Danielle Hillix J. R. Giddens may be a sophomore, but he has the moves of a tested veteran. There were rumors that Giddens would leave Kansas for the NBA, but he said he was only thinking about a championship for the Jayhawks. Jared Soares/KANSAN Newly committed Rhymes returns in better condition BY MIRANDA LENNING mienning@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITER Alicia Rhymes didn't get off to the best start with new Kansas women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson. The first day that Henrickson met Rhymes, the sophomore forward was having two screws removed from her knee after off-season ACL surgery. Rhymes didn't work out with the team during spring practices. When the first summer school session rolled around, Henrickson felt as though Rhymes was not committed to getting herself healthy. Henrickson said she was holding Rhymes accountable. "So we had a couple of pointed conversations in July," Henrickson said. "I told her to control what she could control," Henrickson said. "I told her that she can't control what happened to her, but you can control how hard you work to get back." Just to make sure that her potential starting forward was committed, Henrickson found out where Rhymes was working out and with whom. She called approximately once a week to make sure that Rhymes was working out diligently. "I asked 'has she been there,' and they were like 'coach she has missed two workouts in a row,'" Henrickson said. "That is not a commitment." So the first thing Henrickson did was call Rhymes on the phone and make a couple things clear. Henrickson told Rhymes that they both wanted the same thing current form. — for her to be healthy and contribute. But Henrickson also wanted to make it clear that she knew better than Rhymes how that was going to happen. Enter Alicia Rhymes in her "She came back, and she is in great shape, and she is fit, and her attitude has been great, and she has been coachable in the post," Henrickson said. The post is one place Rhymes never thought she would play at Kansas. At 6-foot, she doesn't have the ideal size to play the post at the collegiate level. "When I got here they told me that I would play three because I could do some of everything," Rhymes said. But on Kansas' 10-player roster, she is not only the second tallest player on the team behind junior forward Crystal Kemp, she is also willing to make the switch. To get back into shape, Rhymes said she did "a lot of running." She said she basically had to start from scratch. Her main motivation to take on such a challenge was the feeling that she had a chance to make an impact this "I felt that I had to work the hardest, because I knew we had a new start because there were new coaches." Rhyms said. "And if got a new start, then hopefully I would get an opportunity to play more." year — a feeling that came from the phone conversation she had with Henrickson in July. Rhymes played in only seven games last season for a combined 17 minutes. Her only two points came on two free throws, making the expectations for her much higher this year than last. "She will be on the floor," Henrickson said. "Sometimes extensively. It just depends on how well she can adjust and if she can produce. If she can produce, she'll be on the floor, that is for sure." Because of the lack of size on this Jayhawk team — Kemp is the tallest player at 6-foot-2 and Rhymes, senior Blair Waltz and For Rhymes, a favorable match-up might be a situation where she could move out and beat a defender off of the ball. freshman Jamie Boyd are all listed at 6-foot - Henrickson said that the key was to get the post players in favorable match-ups. "I have a quicker first step than most post players," Rhymes said. Henrickson said the team would like to get Rhymes 15 or 16 feet away from the basket, where she could penetrate and was available to relieve Kemp when Kemp is double-teamed. She said if Rhymes could improve on her perimeter jump shot and ball handling, she would be even more versatile. Henrickson said she was confident that Rhymes would work hard to assert herself This is an opportunity," Henrickson said. KANSAS 34 "I told her: If an opportunity Jared Soares/KANSAN knocks on your door, open it, and she has," Henrickson said. After off-season ACL surgery, Alicia Rhymes is back and excited to play for new coach Bonnie Henrickson. Edited by Johanna M.

Like any sophomore, Self expects his second year to go more smoothly than his first. Last year, Self considered everyone a first-year player. So it's no surprise that when he reflects back on last season now, he said one of the hardest things about the year was establishing a comfort level with his new players. "I've always been a coach that could get close to guys." Sell said. "I think that happened last year, but I don't think it happened as soon as I thought." In the midst of last year's challenging transition, Self answered countless "Roy" questions about former Kansas coach Roy Williams, implemented a new offense and had to convince players who had been to two Final Fours that they should play basketball his way. At Illinois and Tulsa, it was easier for Self to attract the players to his style of play because of his accomplishments. But at Kansas, getting the players to buy into what he said was a little more complicated. "You come in here and you change everything, and then those guys are like. 'Wow, he changed it, but he hasn't done what we've done.'" Self said. "Subconsciously, you can't help but feel that way a little bit when change occurs." Getting the players to understand that his way was right was a process, not an immediate reaction. "What I think is important was different from what Roy thought was important." Self said. "So we had to readjust how we thought and by the end of the year, I thought we played as good as anybody." The Jayhawks advanced to the Elite Eight round of the NCAA Tournament. The way the Jayhawks finished the season last year makes starting this season easier. Self said. Maybe that is the reason there is an aura of confidence surrounding the team going into this season. The Jayhawks are ranked No. 1 in the ESPN/USA Today presseason poll. Wayne Simien is a presseason first team All-American. The players seem to think that fewer distractions coming into this season will make it easier for both them and Self to concentrate on their goals. "Last year coach Self had to deal with a lot of other things with coming into a high-level program like this," senior guard Aaron Miles said. "He is more at ease this year, and he can focus on coaching and not worry about other stuff." Self had record success in 2003-2004. His 24 victories as a first-year coach tie him with former coach Dick Harp for most victories by a first-year Kansas coach. The players seem to buy into Self's second-year philosophy. "It is just like being a sophomore again, the second time around," Langford said. That may be a good thing for the Jayhawks considering that during their sophomore year, Langford and the other three seniors on this Kansas team won 30 games, the Big 12 Conference Championship and finished as the NCAA Tournament's runners up. — Edited by Ashley Bechard Second-year coach Bill Self should have a lot to clap about this season. Now that his players know his system, he said things should run much smoother. Coaching staff ready for new season of high expectations HAWKS BY JACK WEINSTEIN jweinstein@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITTER Kansan file photo Assistant coach Kurtis Townsend replaced Norm Roberts, who left to take the helm at St. John's. Townsend is known for his recruiting ability. He has helped Bill Self bring in next season's highly-touched freshmen class. Last year, the Kansas men's basketball team suffered through some growing pains after coach Bill Self and his staff arrived in Lawrence. During the season, the Jayhawks played some great games and some bad games, but they enjoyed enough success to nearly make their third consecutive Elite Eight appearance, losing in overtime to Georgia Tech in the Elite Eight in March. Self's staff knows last year's difficult adjustment was to be expected, but this year will be different. "I know as coaches, we're all a lot more comfortable than we were last year," assistant coach Tim Jankovich said. "I think if you ask the players, they're a heck of a lot more comfortable because they know what to expect." After their first run as Kansas assistants, Jankovich and Joe Dooley lost one of their colleagues. Associate coach Norm Roberts left to take the coaching position at St. John's University. With the departure of Roberts, Self lost a piece of the puzzle that helped tie a Kansas record for most victories in a first season for a new coach. Self met with many candidates in the effort to replace Roberts and chose former Miami assistant Kurtis Townsend. Townsend, known for his recruiting ability, was formerly an assistant at Southern California, Michigan, Eastern Kentucky and California. Townsend helped guide all these programs to successful seasons including three trips to the NCAA Tournament with California in 1994, 1996 and 1997. Even though it is his first year on the Kansas staff, Townsend realizes the expectations for this team are high. "I think as coaches we definitely want to win the Big 12 Championship if we can," he said. "But you just get better every day. If we're playing our best basketball in January and February, everything will take care of itself." Along with his recruiting duties, Townsend works with Dooley coaching the perimeter players. Jankovich, who works with the Jayhawk guards, enters his second season as a Kansas assistant and his third year on Self's staff. Jankovich came with Self from Illinois following the 2002-2003 season. His coaching experience spans two decades and includes two head coaching stints. In 1993, he led North Texas to the second best turnaround in the nation. He also guided Hutchinson Community College to back-to-back 20-win seasons from 1997 to 1999. Jankovich was also a standout on the court as a player. A graduate of Kansas State in 1982, he helped guide the Wildcats to three straight NCAA Tournament appearances, including a trip to the Elite Eight in 1981 and the Sweet Sixteen in 1982. Joe Dooley enters his second season as an assistant at Kansas. Before his arrival in Lawrence, Dooley enjoyed successful assistant coaching stints at Wyoming, New Mexico and East Carolina. Like Jankovich, Dooley also guided the 1996-97 East Carolina Pirates to a 17-11 record in his first season as coach, the best year by a rookie coach at East Carolina in more than 20 years. Dooley, a 1988 graduate of George Washington University, was a four-year letter winner on the basketball team, starting his final two years. Dooley said there was no doubt that Kansas would have a great year if it played up to its potential, Dooley said. "We've got some depth. We've got some experience, so we need to make sure we stay healthy and stay together." Danny Manning is back for his second season on Self's staff. The legendary Kansas forward is the director of basketball operations. His duties include assisting Self and his staff with administrative tasks. Former Kansas walk-on Brett Ballard, also in his second season, and former Illinois walk-on Nate Mast, in his first year, assist Manning and the coaches with various administrative responsibilities. Self has assembled a talented staff of coaches with years of successful experience at the assistant and coaching levels. These assistants will try to help Self do something no one has done since 1988 and bring the national championship back to the Jayhawks. - Edited by Stephanie Lovett PIZZA PAPA JOHNS KU Student Daily Specials Monday Medium Mania!

He just didn't think it would happen while carrying extra training bags in the airport. "We all had' to do our little freshman duties," Kleinmann said. "We were all there together, and we all kind of realized that we're all in this together, and we have a few more years left of it. It's definitely a bonding experience right now." "It's unbelievable," Kleinmann said. "Even I didn't expect how fast we'd come together. It's great so far, and it's only going to get better." The six freshmen — Kleinmann, guards Russell Robinson and Alex Galindo, and forwards C.J. Giles, Darnell Jackson and Sasha Kaun — have already become closer as a unit, even after just a few weeks of practice. The chemistry is especially "I It's unbelievable. Even I didn't expect how fast we'd come together. It's great so far and it's only going to get better." Matt Kleinmann Freshman basketball player important for the three forwards, who are competing with each other for the final starting spot next to senior Wayne Simien. Though the battle for playing time has been fierce, Kaun insists it hasn't damaged the freshmen's relationships with teammates. "We are all very close to each other, and I think everybody is good at what they do," Kaun said. "I think it will be a very interesting year. Everybody is going to compete against each other, and it's going to make it even better." The freshmen also helped each other through adversity at coach Bill Self's annual boot camp, a two-week conditioning program that took place before the season. "We were all kind of there for each other, supporting each other," Kleinmann said, "because we were all going through it for the first time." The six freshmen came to Kansas as one of the highest-rated recruiting classes in the nation, but have the luxury of not being shouldered with too much responsibility. The returning talent provides Kansas with solid leadership for the freshmen and also allows the younger players to adjust to the college game without having to worry about doing too much. SAS 24 The Jayhawks return four seniors and four starters from last season's Elite Eight squad, including preseason Big 12 first-team picks Simien and Keith Langford and honorable mentions Aaron Miles and sophomore J.R. Giddens. "We know we'll be role players," Jackson said.

"We can all laugh with each other," Kleinmann said. "It's not like just on the court we're friends. We're great friends off the court." Edited by Danielle Hillix Self-style recruiting consistently brings big names to town BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealing@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER Before Kansas coach Bill Self came to Lawrence, recruiting seemed to happen every other year. For instance, this year's highly touted senior class was followed by a junior class composed of walk-ons Stephen Vinson and Christian Moody and scholarship player Mouave Niang. Jeff Hawkins is also part of the junior class and has seen some success, but he was recruited with the current seniors and took a redshirt his freshman year. But the every-other-year feel of recruiting changed when Bill Self came to campus. "Last year, I felt like we needed size, and we were able to get that with three guys." Self said. "I felt like we needed quickness. We were able to get that, and I felt like we needed shooting, and we were able to get that." In Self's two seasons, he has brought in what rivals.com ranks as the second-best class in the country and followed it up with three verbal commitments from rivals.com's 10th, 12th and 14th best players in the country. Self has one more scholarship, which he had offered to C.J. Miles, who chose Texas Oct. 5. Also considering the scholarship was Martynas Pocius, who ended up at Duke. "You don't just recruit for your team," Self said. "You recruit in case something bad happens." This season, Kansas was able to pull off a huge surprise and land small forward Julian Wright for next year's recruiting class. Wright had not even visited Kansas when Self found himself sitting in the Wright family living room. Before Self left, he had a commitment in hand. Wright got his first chance to experience Kansas and to meet his new teammates at Late Night in the Phog. "I know that Micah [Downs] and Mario [Chalmers] will be at Late Night as well," Wright told rivals.com before the event. "I think it will be great to get a feel for the campus and student life." Joining Wright with commitments are Downs and Chalmers. Chalmers is a point guard, and Downs is another small forward. With so many scholarships already tied up in two classes — eight of 13 — Self seems to be considering keeping his last scholarship until the late signing period or even holding it for next year. "We'll try and get four." Self said. "If we get it great. If we don't get it, it's OK, because even if we do we're going to keep recruiting all year." This class, as well as the class that follows can look forward to something that has not been available for a while. "With next year's recruiting, we're selling playing time," Self said. "There's no doubt that four of these guys are gone." recruit nationwide, something that former coach Roy Williams was unwilling to do. In this year's freshman class, Self has representatives from both coasts and places in between. Freshman Alex Galindo is from Newark, N.J., and freshman C.J. Giles is from Seattle. Self seems to be willing to Self also said that one of the things that made recruiting for Kansas great was Kansas itself. "We have a great product," he said. "It's hard to sell something when the product isn't good." - Edited by Stephanie Lovett Hallo KANSAS CITY Men, bet you wish you had a NICKEL for every time you went a little overtime celebrating.

He and high school teammate Aaron Miles thought they did everything right. Enter their senior season. "We thought we did, but we didn't have a clue," Lee said. "And slowly each year we figured things out and got to this point." Lee, Miles, Keith Langford and Wayne Simien, they are now leaders. There is no next year. And they are hungry for a national championship. "I felt like last year they said, 'Hey, no matter what happens, Coach, we'll be all right,'" coach Bill Self said. "I believe now they see it as 'Hey, if it doesn't happen this year, there is no next year.' I like being able to see the finish line from a hunger standpoint." team, the Jayhawks averaged 75.8 points per game. In addition to points, each senior contributes character and leadership elements, and none is more important than the other. Self said a team is only as good as its seniors allow it to be. For Kansas, these seniors have been in two Final Fours and one Elite Eight. Langford, Lee, Miles and Simien averaged a combined 47.9 points per game last season. As a "One great thing about these four is that they like each other so much that I sense it's each other's team," Self said. "I don't think you say it is one person's team, I think it is the seniors' team." Simien leads by example, Self said. He averaged almost 18 points and nine rebounds per game last season, while playing with an injured groin. Miles leads with the ball is in his hands. "It is natural for me because all of my life I have been a point guard, and I have been told that point guards are supposed to be leaders." Miles said. Self said Langford provided the team with energy. And Lee is the vocal leader. "Mike is the best talker on the team hands down," Self said. "Bush and Kerry wouldn't want to get in a debate with Lee." But when they do, the topic will most likely trigger some emotion. son is their last at Kansas. Jared Sears/KANSAN For as much as Lee and the other seniors talk, Self said they don't talk about the fact this sea- "We try not to talk about it too much between the four of us because we want to make the most out of things this year," Simien said. "But you can't help but think about it, things like this being our last boot camp and our last Late Night." Lee is still shocked that his senior season is here. "It is kind of a trip, just to sit back and think of time," Lee said. "People always said it would go fast and it really went by fast." Miles said the reality of the situation motivated him. "As freshman, sophomores and juniors, you always said 'you have another year,'" he said. "But this is our last year and our last chance and we want to go down as one of the great teams in college basketball." Langford responded like an emotional leader would. "I've enjoyed my time, but now it's time to put up or shut up, basically," Langford said. "I am going try to soak up every second that I have with this team, but at the end we just want All of the seniors said that anything short of a national championship would be a disappointment. to focus on winning." Seniors Wayne Simien, Keith Langford, Mike Lee and Aaron Miles hope to and their college careers by cutting down the nets in St. Louis, Mo in March. 3 "We've been to the tournament, won the Big 12, be to Final Four, been to a national championship." Lee said. "We've done everything but win." In today's era of college basketball, when players jump early to the NBA, Kansas has a unique situation with four seniors. Self said. "In today's time, Kansas has been blessed in recent memory," Self said. "Think of the great teams that Kansas has had and go back into Kansas history, How many guys have left early?" Only two players in Kansas history have left early for the NBA: Paul Pierce and Drew Gooden. Pierce left after his junior season in 1998 and Gooden left in 2002 also after his junior season. "To have these four guys stay together 16 out of a possible 16 years, that gives us a leg up," Self said. Only Oklahoma State, with six seniors, has more seniors than Kansas. The Cowboys' seniors combine for two points more per game than Langford, Lee, Miles and Simien. Despite all of the preseason hype surrounding this team, Self said his team thought the experience of the four seniors is what could separate the Jayhawks from the other great teams in the country. think it's not the talent, because there are a lot of teams with good players," Self said. "It's not athletic ability; its not perimeter shooting; there are a lot of teams that have that. But few teams have four seniors that have been through the fire like these guys have." "I asked our guys what our biggest advantage was, and I — Edited by Rupal Gor Experience, depth lead to high rankings and expectations BY FRED A. DAVIS III AND JONATHAN KEALING sports@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITHERS There is a number constantly being used in conjunction with the Kansas basketball team; one. The Jayhawks are ranked number one in a bevy of preseason basketball polls. Coaches contend that preseason polls are used to excite fans. Some fans are unnerved by early season superiority. Whatever the case, high expectations aren't new for jayhawk basketball. "Last year, we were preseason four," said Kansas coach Bill Self. "I think the expectations are high no matter what." There are several reasons why analysts claim Kansas should tear down the nets in St. Louis. Start with the experience. The senior foursome of Aaron Miles, Keith Langford, Michael Lee and Wayne Simien have been to an Elite Eight and two Final Fours in three years. They are 87-21 overall and 42-6 in Big 12 play. Miles is 67 assists away from becoming the school's all-time assist leader. Langford, at 1,408 points for his career, is within striking distance of becoming only the third Jayhawk ever to amass 2,000 points. The revenge factor could also play a part. With how close the Jayhawks have been each of the last three years, lack of motivation will not be a factor. "These last four years, if it's taught us anything, it taught us you have to play the game," Langford said. Sophomore J.R. Giddens also proved his ability to make an impact. Giddens has the ability to finish in the open court or pull up from downtown. Giddens also can hit the shots that count. In addition to the team's stars, the Jayhawks also have more depth than they've had on previous teams. Self brought in guys from all over the country. The Jayhawks now feature a New York-bred point guard in Russell Robinson and shooting guard/small forward Alex Galindo from New Jersey. The frontcourt also received attention, landing three solid bangers. Kansas added 6-foot-11 Sasha Kaun, 6-foot-8 Darnell Jackson and 6-foot-10 C.J. Giles to compliment Simien down low. Juniors Christian Moody, Moulaye Niang and Jeff Hawkins also have valuable conference and tournament experience.

Simien is determined to win a national title for the Jayhawks, but basketball isn't the only thing Simien thinks about. After a shoulder injury ended his sophomore season early, Simien got a new outlook on life. Simien says his deep faith in God has improved his entire life. IT'S CRIMSON!... IT'S BLUE!... IT'S BASKETBALL!! GOOD LUCK ON WHAT WILL BE A LEGENDARY SEASON! GO KU! THE LEGENDS... LEGENDARY STUDENT LIVING! 4101 W. 24TH PLACE 865-KU4U WWW.THELEGENDSATKU.COM By B.J. RAINS brains@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER Coach Bill Self said that Simien deserves all of the attention. Simien is already reaping the benefits of his decision to stay for his senior season. Several magazines, including www.cbs.sportsline.com's College Basketball News, have tabbed the 6-foot-9 senior as their National Player of the Year. He was also selected as the Big 12 Preseason Player of the Year by the league's coaches and media. "I weighed the pros and cons of leaving and staying." Simien said. "There were a lot more reasons for me to stay than for me to go. The relationships I have built over the last four years. Being able to play another season for Coach Self. The possibility of being able to win a National Championship. They were all big factors." Wayne Simien will take the court on Sunday night as a college student. As a Jayhawk playing in Allen Fieldhouse instead of a paid professional playing in a corporate arena. The NBA can wait until next year, and that's just fine with him. "He's just a very mature guy that is almost sometimes too good to be true," Self said. Along with Simien's personal accolades, the Jayhawks are ranked No. 1 in the nation in the USA TODAY/ESPN Coaches' Poll. Simien, who would have been a borderline first round pick in the NBA draft last June, thought about a leap to the pro ranks after his junior season but decided to come back and finish what he started in Lawrence. Simien searches for the title Among the things the injury did for Simien was help him turn his life around. When things looked like they couldn't get much worse, the frustrated Simien began to look at life differently. Simien and his teammates say they will accept nothing less "The shoulder injury gave me a whole different outlook on life," he said. "It made me not want to be defined as just a basketball player." "It would be a huge disappointment, especially for the seniors," Simien said. "It's something we really want to do. We've come so close the last couple of years, so to come up short would be very disappointing." Besides playing basketball, Simien has spread God's word throughout his daily activities. By turning his life over to God, his life improved and he wants everyone to know it. Over the summer, he worked at a Christian Basketball Camp in California. Getting to teach kids about basketball, as well as the Bible, was an exciting experience for him. During his sophomore year, Simien suffered a dislocated shoulder early in the season and missed the entire NCAA Tournament. He sat and watched as his Jayhawks played and lost in the National Championship game against Syracuse. Although it was painful for Simien to watch, he actually said he benefited from not being on the court. "It was definitely a frustrating moment for me, but I learned a lot from it," Simien said. "A National Championship would be nice to have right now, but I think the adversity that I went through during that season, really helped me mature as a person "I pretty much consider myself a full-time minister, sharing with people how God has changed my life over the last few years," Simien said. "That's something that I always want to continue to do. God changed my life through the injury. I want people to know that." For the first time in a long time Simien is healthy entering the season. He spent most of his summer recovering from a groin injury that plagued him for most of last season. He also had lingering injuries to his shoulder and ankle, both of which have healed. Finally 100 percent, Simien is primed for a big season — one which he hopes ends with another trip to St. Louis, which this year will host the Final Four. Besides his dominating presence inside the lane, Simien has worked on his outside shooting. He was limited to 11 points in the 79-71 overtime loss to Georgia Tech in the Elite Eight last year in St. Louis, a loss which denied the Jayhawks their third consecutive trip to the Final Four. Simien relied on his faith in making the decision to forego instant fortune by jumping to the NBA. Now, he is out to show people that God helped him make the right decision, both on and off the court. "He doesn't have bad days," Self said. "When you have guys like Wayne — your best players — working like he works, you get everybody to do that." Self said Simien's work ethic has infected the team. than a national title this season. After coming up short in each of the last three seasons, Simien says not winning the championship would not be acceptable. Kansan sportswriter Jesse Newell contributed to this story.

She joined Kansas from Virginia Tech, where she coached the Hokies to seven postseason appearances. She said she was better prepared to coach the Jayhawks. Kansan file photo BY PAUL BRAND pbrand@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER Rebuilding programs is Henrickson's forte Talking to first-year women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson, one can sense her commitment to her newly acquired program. "Right now my responsibility and my staffs is to re-establish tradition and build this into something very, very special," Henrickson said. During her tenure from 1997 until 2004, Henrickson led the Hokies to five NCAA tournament appearances and made the WNIT twice. Henrickson had her fair share of success as coach at Virginia Tech, where she established a winning program that averaged 23 victories per season. Although the program has suffered a string of disappointing seasons lately, one of the most alluring motives for Henrickson to leave Virginia Tech was Kansas' past achievements and the local enthusiasm for basketball. "The most appealing reason is one, the passion and vision for basketball in the state of Kansas," she said. "The program has had success historically in the Big Eight and Big 12." "R right now my responsibility and In terms of a revival effort, my staff's is to re-establish tradition and build this into something very,very special." Bonnie Henrickson Women's basketball coach Henrickson's takeover at Kansas presents a challenge, but she already has experience in rebuilding a program in her brief coaching career. At Virginia Tech, she guided the Hokies to a 22-10 record and a conference title in her first season after the team finished 10-21 and in last place the previous year. While Henrickson will make no guarantees concerning win totals in her first year at Kansas, she maintains that the situation is more suitable than the one she encountered at Virginia Tech. "I can promise you that I am better prepared to do it now than I was then. I have more resources and commitment," she said. The transition period to a new system has not been exceptionally hard for the players, despite the fact that many played several seasons under former coach Marian Washington. "We didn't have a hard time adjusting," junior forward Crystal Kemp said. "It just took us a little while to keep everything under control in our heads." Henrickson's impact on the players and the program has already been felt in offseason workouts and early-season practices. In her first days at Kansas, the coach has earned a reputation for being a demanding figure on the court. "Coach Henrickson doesn't let up on anything." Kemp said. "She is definitely trying to push me to work harder." Such work and motivation will be essential to Henrickson's rebuilding efforts, especially with a roster that has obvious concerns. With only nine scholarship players and a what Henrickson calls a "glaring height problem," the Jayhawks will find a definite challenge in the Big 12 Conference. For her, a challenge is an opportunity, she said. For the program, that opportunity will be measured in future successes. Women's coaching staff brings experience, hope Edited by Bill Cross BV JACK WEINSTEIN jweinstein@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER When women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson came to Kansas, she didn't come alone. She brought with her a talented group of assistants who may help her turn around a program that hasn't had a winning season since 1999-2000. Henrickson knew what she was doing when she hired her assistants. With basketball careers that included playing and coaching success, her assistants bring a winning attitude to a team that collectively has never won at Kansas. LANGE PETER JONES Karen Lange joins the Kansas staff after serving as an assistant coach at Virginia Tech under Henrickson since 1997. She also had an illustrious career as a player, helping to lead Iowa to two Big 10 Championships, a Sweet 16 appearance, and a trip to the "We're teaching young ladies to become successful women for their lives after college." Kyra Elzy Assistant basketball coach Final Four in 1993 from her point guard position. Lange coordinates the recruiting at Kansas, but on the court, she works primarily with the guards. Kyra Elzy has a playing résumé that includes three trips to the Final Four and two National Championships. Elzy was a member of the 1997 and 1998 NCAA Championship teams at Tennessee. She spent the past two years honing her coaching and recruiting skills at Western Kentucky. "Kyra has quickly built the reputation as a tremendous recruiter." Henrickson said.

BAYLEY The only member of Henrickson's staff to actually have experience playing u n d e r Henrickson is K. a. t i.e On the court, Elzy will work O'Connor. O'Connor said she counted that as an advantage. "I understand her system, the commitment and work ethic it takes to succeed at this level, to do things the right way, every day." O'Connor said. O'Connor, who recruits and works with Kansas' post players, made the move with Henrickson after being an assistant at Virginia Tech for the past two seasons. her senior season as a player, O'Connor helped lead the Hokies to a 28-3 record, an Atlantic 10 regular season title and a trip to the Sweet 16. Henrickson's staff also includes Trena Anderson, director of basketball operations, and Katie Wulf, an administrative assistant. P Anderson is responsible for fundraising, travel accommodations, the O'CONNER booster club and other public relations efforts. Wulf, who is pursuing her master's degree, will help with recruiting and academic support, film exchange and breakdown Neither Anderson nor Wulf wants to coach, but they said they hoped to use their experiences at Kansas to climb the University administration ladder. Lange, Elzy and O'Connor also assist with the adjustment student athletes make from college to the real world, a job they said was even more important than their coaching duties. "We're teaching young ladies to become successful women for their lives after college," Elzy said. This season will certainly be different with all the new faces roaming the sidelines for the lavhawks. With such a promising staff, more Jayhawk victories may be part of that difference.

Boyd, who was Miss Iowa Basketball last year, will add depth in the frontcourt, where McIntosh will join her after making a transition from the guard position. SA K Jared Soares/KANSAN By PAUL BRAND pbrand@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER To start kicking around the Big 12 competition, Kansas women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson needs to recruit thoroughbred players. "You can train the donkey all you want, but it's not going to win the Kentucky." Henrickson said. For Kansas, the Kentucky Derby equivalent is an eventual run at a Big 12 Championship. A conference title could not seem further away for a team that finished 11th in league play and has not finished higher than ninth since 2000. "A lot of times people bring in freshmen who may need to develop a year or two," said junior forward Crystal Kemp. "But the ones she has picked that I have seen look like they are ready to play." The first step at changing the success of the program is changing the face of the recruiting class, and that mission is well under way. Shortly after taking the job in April, Henrickson signed on her first recruit, freshman forward Jamie Boyd. In high school, Boyd was the recipient of the 2004 Miss Basketball Award in Iowa, the highest individual honor given in the state. That same commitment has sent the coaching staff all over the country with a goal of filling between eight and 11 scholarship spots during the next two years. For Henrickson to meet her high recruiting ambitions, she does "I was sold on the determination of Coach," Boyd said of her reasons for coming to Kansas. not impose geographical restrictions on potential talent. "If you can go east, why can't you go west?" Henrickson said. "If you can go north, you can go south." In terms of building a broader recruiting base, Henrickson plans on borrowing a page from the men's book. "There is a tremendous amount of talent in the south and west coast," she said. "And the men have had success in the west." High school star to adapt "Bill Self has been wonderful in our transition," Henrickson said. "He will meet with every recruit we have. Danny Manning has been fantastic as far as meeting people and families." The women's program is also benefiting from the success of the men's program to boost name recognition, Henrickson said. "When you look at our first two and three recruiting classes, that will be the biggest key for us." Henrickson said. "As you know, we are all better coaches with talent." Recruiting in the same regions as Big 12 powerhouses such as Kansas State, the Jayhawks are looking for any edge available. It is a long road from an 11th place conference finish in 2003-2004 to a roster that Henrickson wants to be league champions within five years, and the influx of talent is critical to that development. For Kansas' first-year coach, the race to get "thoroughbred" recruits has already started and Hendrickson wants it to produce rosy results. — Edited by Neeley Spellmeier BY FRANK TANKARD ftankard@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITTER Jamie Boyd knows she was good in high school. The Jayhawks' 6-foot freshman forward was named Miss Iowa Basketball last year, won back-to-back state championships for Underwater High School, scored 1,920 points and grabbed 1,007 rebounds in her four years of high school. She earned 14 letters in basketball, volleyball, softball, golf and track. Now she has to adapt to a faster, more physical style of play, a new coach and a new city. Boyd views it as a challenge. "I'm excited," she said. "But I'll definitely have to work at it." Boyd is from Underwood, Iowa, a town of 700 people, 20 miles northeast of Omaha. Neb. It's a middle-class, hard-working town with one Lutheran church, a high school with about 250 students and a volunteer fire department. Boyd starred for the Underwood Eagles. She dominated the entire state of Iowa. In her senior season, she averaged 17.8 points per game, 8.1 rebounds per game and 2.4 blocks per game. Her rebound total ranks eighth all-time in the state and her almost 2,000-point total ranks 15th. But her most precious memory of high school wasn't when she grabbed her 1,000th rebound or won Miss Basketball — the highest individual honor in the state — or being named to the all-state team three times. It was leading Underwood to a 94-11 record in her four years and winning back-to-back class 2-A state titles her junior and senior seasons. "We were a little school, and we kind of showed people that little schools can be just as good as big schools," she said. In making the jump from high school to the Big 12, Boyd is going from being the most athletic player on her high school court to competing against the likes of Texas' preseason All-American, 6-3 sophomore Tiffany Jackson and preseason Big 12 Player of the Year, Kansas State's Kendra Wecker, 5-11 senior forward. Boyd is excited about the opportunity to prove herself. "I look forward to being able to step up and playing in the Big 12," she said. Boyd said the main reason she chose Kansas instead of South Dakota and New York University was the coaching staff's "determination to make this program succeed." The team's veteran players have been helping her adjust to the University, she said, but the coaching staff was new for every one. - Edited by Jon Ralston "In a sense, we're all kind of freshmen because of the new coaches, in the sense of what they expect and how they run things," Boyd said. Successful high school guard becomes a forward for Kansas BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER Taylor McIntosh didn't give it a second thought. After signing with Kansas and coach Marian Washington last fall, McIntosh never wavered in her decision to become a Jayhawk, even after Washington announced her retirement in the spring. "Coach Bonnie called and said how she was excited to get the new job, and she still wanted me to play for her." McIntosh said. "I still wanted to come here. She just kind of pumped me up about this year." McIntosh, a 5-foot-11 forward from Wichita, has become motivated in a different sort of way after achieving amazing success in high school. In her four seasons at Wichita Heights, McIntosh helped lead the team to an astounding 89-8 record, scoring more than 1,400 She won the 6A state championship her sophomore and junior seasons, hitting the game-winning shot in the title game of her sophomore year. But she failed to win a title her senior season. "It kind of ended bad." McIntosh said. "So that got me motivated more for college because I didn't want it to end like that." Though she was a guard in high school, McIntosh will be asked to play forward because of the Jayhawks' lack of post players. After averaging 17.5 points, nine rebounds and three steals her senior year of high school, McIntosh will experience a different game as a forward in college. points in her career. "I'm used to being taller or the same height as a lot of people I play against." McIntosh said. "I will have to shoot more outside instead of catching and facing up and going around people like I did when I had a size advantage." McIntosh and freshman teammate Jamie Boyd have already started to make adjustments to play against taller competition. "I know the Big 12 has a lot of big post players." McIntosh said. "We're just going to try to use our speed and get in the best shape of our life to do good." McIntosh said that sophomore forward Alicia Rhymes had the most impact on her in the early season workouts. "We just kind of clicked; we seem to get along." McIntosh said. "She's just showing me the ropes." Rhymes, who is also adjusting to becoming a forward, said the two related because of their similar positions and easygoing natures. "We always hang out, and I think she's kind of got my personality," Rhymes said. "We both just lay back and don't worry about too much." - Edited by Danielle Hillix GOOD LUCK KU MEN'S & WOMEN'S BASKETBALL COME WATCH THE GAME AT THE HAWK Jayhaw CAFE Jayhaw CAFE LAWRENCE 1340 Ohio 843-9273 THE LOUNGE.

Langford has been named to three NCAA All-Tournament teams and was picked to this year's preseason All-Big 12 team. Langford keeps it real Senior's words, play spark plenty of interest BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER Controversial. Keith Langford thinks about the word for a second, then smiles. If nothing else, the senior guard knows what he is. "I say the stuff that everybody knows, but they don't want to hear," Langford said. "I hate clichés. I hate fake stuff. I try to tell it how I see it. If people don't like that, I really don't want to say what I do. If people don't like me, they can shove it." And he's not afraid to share it with anyone. Langford, with his ability to penetrate and score quickly, has also been known to spark his teammates on the court. Agree or disagree, like him or not, Langford definitely keeps it real. "I enjoy being around Keith because he speaks his mind," said senior teammate Mike Lee. "He likes to throw more flame in the fire. He wants to spark controversy." His average of 15.5 points a game last season was second most on the team, helping him earn a spot on the Big 12's preseason first team. But coach Bill Self said his emotional style of play might be even more important than his scoring ability. "I think he's as important as anybody is to this team because he could be our biggest energy giver." Self said. "We could feed off of him more so than anybody else from an energy standpoint. I think he's got a lot of responsibility on his shoulders that hopefully he's willing to accept and wants to accent." Get Your KU Discount Today! Langford originally played "What if. Those two words really kill you because you think, 'If I could have played a couple more minutes.' Keith Langford Senior guard football, but after breaking his foot at a young age he decided basketball would be best for him. Not only has the sport allowed him to participate in two Final Fours at Kansas, it has given him the opportunity to further his education. The switch turned out to be one of the best choices he could have made. "I probably wouldn't have gotten to go to college if I hadn't gotten a scholarship," Langford said. "I had a lot of incentive in trying to get better and make my way to this point." Langford originally committed to Mississippi during his senior season of high school, but reopened his recruiting and chose Kansas over Cincinnati and Oklahoma. Langford said he had definite pressures when deciding on a school. "When I came on a visit here, the day we were leaving, my mom told me I was coming here and I didn't have a choice," Langford said. "There's no telling what decision I would have made." The last two seasons have come to a frustrating end for Langford. He has fouled out of Kansas' last two NCAA tournament losses — both in overtime last season against Georgia Tech in the Elite Eight and in the second half of the 2003 national championship game against Syracuse. Recovering in the offseason from an injured knee, Langford will look to avoid both injuries and fouls to finish the games he starts this season. "What if," Langford said. "Those two words really kill you because you think, 'If I could have played a couple more minutes.'" Kansas players know how good of a player he can be, especially on the practice court. "He's the most dominant scorer from his position that I can remember having to guard, and being able to do this, I've been fortunate to guard some good players," said junior guard Stephen Vinson. "He's the type of player when his mind's right and his body's right, he can score any time he wants to." While at Kansas, Langford has tended to save his best play for the last part of the season. The senior has been named to three NCAA all-tournament teams, averaging 14.4 points in NCAA Tournament play. Photo Library Langford said he played at his best in the tournament because he viewed pressure in a different way. "You have to look at it as a positive thing," Langford said. "If you look at it bad, you're going to come out and not perform as well because you think not everybody is going to like you. You can't worry about what other people say." — Edited by Stephanie Lovett iPod Photo Your music and 25,000 photos in your pocket. ► Auto-sync music, photos and album art ► Vivid 2 inch color LCD display ► Play slideshows with music on your TV ► Up to 15 hours of continuous music The Tech Shop KU Bookstore Level 2, Kansas Union techshop@ku.edu 864-4640 MENU 11 KANSAS WOMEN'S BASKETBALL 2004-05 NEW COACH ALWAYS KU KU vs FORT HAYS STATE TUES.

But the Jahawks won't have an easy road to a championship, not with the level of play in the Big 12. - "To a great extent, the only league that is better in the country than the Big 12, in my opinion, is the NBA," Nebraska coach Barry Collier said.

Baylor 11 First place votes in parenthesis In most of the preseason top 25s, three Big 12 teams have been listed: Kansas, Oklahoma State and Texas. In last week's ESPN/USA Today coaches' poll Kansan was No. 1, Oklahoma State was No. 8 and Texas was No. 15. “It's hard to size it up, other than to say it's really, really good,” Missouri's Quin Snuder said. While the pundits may not have noticed the Big 12. The coaches seem to be just a little impressed by each other. Picked by the coaches to finish first in the Big 12, tied with Kansas, expectations are high for Oklahoma State. OSU lost three players from last year's Final Four team to graduation, including the team's leading scorer, Tony Allen. Returning are Joey Graham and John Lucas, both seniors and both legitimate candidates for Big 12 Player of the Year. This season, the Big 12 looks to improve from sending only four teams to the Big Dance. Another trip to the Final Four is not out of the question for this squad. Oklahoma State Record: 31-4 Bin 12: 14-2 Going into this season, Texas knew it was going to have a huge hole to fill with the departure of four players, which Texas coach Rick Barnes called "the foundation of Texas basketball." Record: 25-8 Big 12: 12-4 Texas With that in mind, Barnes recruited one of the best groups of freshmen in the nation. Included in that group are three McDonald's All-Americans in LeMarcus Aldridge, Daniel Gibson and Mike Williams. Gibson is expected to Source: Big12sports.com MOUTOW 3 KLOTZ 21 TEXAS take over as point guard for the departed Royal Ivey, who averaged 9.4 points and 4.3 assists per game last season. Colorado Record: 18-11 Big 12; 10-6 It was an NIT bid for Colorado last season. The team will have difficulty building on the success after losing four starters. Picked by the Big 12 coaches to finish 10th, Colorado will look to a super-class of juniors. Ten of the Buffaloes' 14 players are juniors. Jays Obauayue, one of those juniors, is the lone returning starter. Last season he averaged 5.5 points and 2.1 rebounds per game. Because of the new faces, Colorado will probably play faster than they have before. There probably won't be much post-season play in Colorado. Texas Tech Record: 23-11 Big 12: 9-7 Knight, who returned his salary two years ago after failing to make the post-season, returned his team to the NCAA tournament last year. Never count out a team coached by Bobby Knight Departed from last year's squau is the team's leading scorer, Andre Emmett. Knight said that instead of looking to one person to replace Emmett, the team would spread the scoring out. Senior Ronald Ross, the team's assist leader and third-highest scorer, will figure prominently in most Tech game plans. Record: 16-14 Big 12; 9-7 After losing to Michigan in the Preseason expectations may have gotten the best of Missouri last season. This year, that should not be the case. Missouri first round of the NIT, Missouri said good-bye to Arthur Johnson and Ricky Paulding, the team's key players. This year, the team will have a new arena and a new team. Snyder said that his team will play a more "international style of basketball." Passing will be crucial, which is good for a team which lost its dominant big man. Linas Kleiza, sophomore from Lithuania, will probably be important with the team's new international style. Oklahoma Kansas coach Bill Self said that he doesn't understand why anyone "would sleep on Oklahoma." Record: 20-11 Big 12:8-8 But for some reason, Oklahoma is not a very trend pick in the Big 12. Last season, Oklahoma had to rebuild a roster ravaged by graduation. The team remains young, but brings more experience to the court this year. Important to this year's team will be Kevin Bookout. Bookout led the team in rebounds per game with 5.5 while recording 7.6 points per contest. Iowa State Record: 20-13 Big 12: 7-9 Iowa State Last season, he brought his team to the NIT, and called it a "very satisfying year." This season, he'd like an NCAA Tournament bid, but he'll have to do it without Jackson Vroman, the No. 31 overall pick in the NBA draft. Wayne Morgan came to ISU to recreate the success he had enjoyed at Long Beach State. Filling that role will be the job' of Jared Homan, one of two seniors on the team. Homan averaged 11.1 points and 6.3 rebounds in last year's games. at the NCAA Tournament with a little bit of luck. Iowa State could make a run Kansas State The Texas Longhorns, led by coach Rick Barnes, are expected to be a force in the Big 12 Conference this year. The Big 12 coaches picked Texas to finish third in the conference, behind Kansas and Oklahoma State. Record: 14-14 Big 12: 6-10 Don't ask coach Jim Woolridge what he thinks of the voting for the preseason All-Big 12 team. Woolridge thinks that his senior forward Jeremiah Massey should have gotten a bit more credit. Any credit would be more than he got. Massey led his team in scoring, rebounding and steals per game, and will look to continue that this season. Nebraska KSU returns quite a bit of experience to this team, and has made strength a focus of the team as well. With hard work, they should finish this season better than last. Record: 18-13 Bio 12:6-10 Barry Collier came to Nebraska from a sweepstakes But no program. he would turn things around quickly, but he is just 58-63 in his fifth season at Nebraska. Expectations were high that Nebraska made a couple NIT victories and lost just two starters from last season. Two of Nebraska's seniors, Jake Muhleisen and John Turek will have to have exceptional seasons if the team is to improve from last year. Another trip to the NIT seems reasonable, but if it doesn't happen, changes could be coming Kansan file photo Baylor Record: 3-13 Big 12; 8-21 Last season, Baylor was mired in controversy. The NCAA was investigating, the police were investigating, it seemed like everything had gone wrong. Then along came Scott Drew. Drew took a team that was not supposed to win a single game in the Big 12 and snuck away with three conference wins, including one on the road Unfortunately, Drew returns just one scholarship player from last season, and will play with only six or seven total. It could be a rough year in Waco, Texas. Texas A&M Record: 7-21 Big 12:0-16 It's impossible to do worse than 0-16 in the Big 12. In that respect, new headcoach Billy Gillispie won't have high expectations this year. Coming off a season when the team gave Baylor it's only road victory, A&M athletics personnel decided to make a coaching change. Hiring Gillispie away from UTEP, they hoped, would turn things in the right direction. If that is to happen, the team will need a little of the magic its football counterparts used in their turnaround, this season. - Edited by Danielle Hillix MORE? KERS! We Have Low Prices Everyday!

NOVEMBER 5. 2004 Hawkins sets priorities straight BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN'S SPORTSWINTER Jeff Hawkins said his suspension earlier this season for off the court issues wasn't tough until he attended the first football game. It was there he saw his basketball teammates on the video board playing at their exhibition trip in Canada. And it was then he decided somehow he had to work his way back onto the team. "I watched a quarter and I said "I've got to go." Hawkins said. "I couldn't watch it because I was like 'Man, I want to be there.' I just had to leave." A few weeks later, Hawkins was reinstated by coach Bill Self after proving he had his priorities in order. "I basically just stepped up and "tried to be a man," Hawkins said. "I took care of my res- sibilities off the court and tried to be as positive as I could." And maybe the fact that Hawkins is back — back with the team, back in practice, back with his teammates — says more about him than anything else. "The thing I would say for Jeff is that he is still here," senior guard Mike Lee said. "Despite all the ups and downs he's had, and times when he might have told me he didn't want to be here anymore and things were getting tough, he stuck it out." It hasn't always been easy for the guard appropriately nicknamed "I-Hawk." From Sumner Academy in Kansas City, Kan., Hawkins came to Kansas with high expectations after averaging 19.6 points and 4.5 assists per game his senior year. After a redshirt season in 2001-02, Hawkins said he never regained the confidence he had in high school, averaging just 1.5 points and 7.4 minutes over the last two seasons. Though more of a scorer in high school, Hawkins believes there are other ways he can contribute to this year's team. "I feel I need to be positive, show a little more leadership, as well as play defense," Hawkins said. Since coming to Kansas, defense has been a primary focus for Hawkins. Teammates said the guard has developed into one of the team's best perimeter defenders. "I think the best thing that he brings to our team is being a defensive stopper," junior guard Stephen Vinson said. "He can really get down and guard people and use his quickness to his advantage." Self is also optimistic that the junior guard can provide solid minutes off the bench, giving a defensive spark if the Jayhawks need it. "Jeff is awfully quick and a great on-the-ball defender," Self said. "I think he's doing well in class and taking care of his business. Hopefully he'll be able to help us out." He is still here. After two long seasons, a long offseason and an especially long trip to Memorial Stadium, Hawkins can still take pride in the fact that he has persevered. Lee said this alone was the most important. "Jeff has had tough times here," Lee said. "With that, I want to say that Jeff is strong mentally. It got to him, but he was strong enough to keep on going." —Edited by Ryan Greene ILLIONS KANSA 1 Kansan file photo Junior guard Jeff Hawkins said he realized that he needed to change his priorities. "I feel I need to be positive, show a little more leadership," he said. Walk-on might get to start BY KELLI ROBINET krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITER It's not often that a walk-on gets the opportunity to start for the No. 1 basketball team in the nation, but that is the opportunity in front of forward Christian Moody. As the 2003-04 season progressed, Moody not only saw his minutes increase, he found himself on the court during crunch time in several games. Coach Bill Self was so impressed with the junior's play that he is considering starting Moody alongside senior forward Wayne Simien in the Kansas frontcourt this season. "That's one of the most exciting things that anyone's ever told me," Moody said. "To even be on a team like this is a dream come true, but now that dream keeps getting better and better." Last year's success drove Moody to improve his game during the offseason. Now that he has a chance to earn a starting spot, he is more motivated than ever. Players and coaches have pointed out that he is playing better than he ever has and looks great in practice. CINCAS 34 "He's working hard," said sophomore guard Jeremy Case. "He has gotten more confident with his jump shot. He doesn't think about himself; he thinks about the team. He's a great teammate." Moody started the first game of the team's exhibition tour in Canada, against British Columbia, and scored 11 points against Langara. He is the only returning big man other than Simien with significant experience. Kansan file photo That experience could give him an advantage in the race for the last starting spot because he has proven that he is fundamentally sound during games. But regardless of whether he starts, his main goal is to continue to help the team. "Now that I'm a junior I want to contribute as much as I can," Moody said. "I'm working as hard as I can to boost my minutes, but that's Coach's decision." Moody received a special one-year scholarship for his efforts last season, but this year he is back to Junior Christian Moody is working hard for the last starting spot. walk-on status "I felt really privileged last year that Coach put me on scholarship," Moody said. "This year, it just wasn't possible. We've got 13 guys on scholarship, so there's not an extra one. I'm still here, and I have just as good a possibility to contribute as anyone else."

Smith, a 5-foot-8 sophomore, chose Kansas over Oklahoma, Texas Christian, Missouri, Stephen F. Austin and the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. She averaged 16 points, six assists and four rebounds her junior year, earning Street & Smith All-America honorable mention. Despite being a scorer in high school and scoring nine points in two games last season, Smith said she wanted most to bring enthusiasm and defense to the team. She will also look to help the transition between coaches, as Bonnie Henrickson enters her first season as Kansas coach after Marian Washington's retirement from the position last spring. "It's been a big adjustment, getting adjusted to their style of play," Smith said. Hallman said she had seen progress from Smith during the last year. "Sharita was hurt a lot last season, but she's really picking up the slack," Hallman said. "She's getting after it in individual workouts. We're actually in individuals together, so we get to compete a lot." — Edited by Anna Clovis FREE Chips & Salsa! Your Frequent Dining Card!

Nobody on the Kansas men's basketball team worked harder to earn his than Stephen "The Standard" Vinson. "The players have nicknamed him that because, no matter how hard you work, you'll always be compared to Steve," coach Bill Self said of the junior guard. Vinson, who practiced through a back injury last season, is aware of his reputation. VINSON "I give pretty good effort," he said. Senior guard Mike Lee said Vinson was the best player he'd ever faced. Vinson said vision and he was not surprised by Lee's compliment. "I'm the toughest on him," Vinson said. "Those guys understand that my role is to work hard and be all over them in practice." Self said Vinson improved everybody on the team with his effort in practice, and that effort might earn him increased playing time this season. "He's fighting for minutes in a backup role," Self said. "If he performs better than the other guys, it'll happen. If he doesn't, he can still contribute in his own way." Vinson said he was ambivalent about his playing time. "If there's something that needs to be done, hopefully I can fill that role," he said. "We're a very complete team, and I add to the depth of that team." The team will have to do without Vinson's contributions for now as he battles a nagging groin injury. "I'm going to be down for a little bit, but I'm on the right track to getting back," he said. Vinson, who is unaccustomed to sitting out of practice, said, "I've had more tests on my entire body than I knew were available. It's been a weird ride." Junior forward Christian Moody said he was impressed by Vinson's durability and his progress during the last two years. "He gains more confidence every year," he said. "In practice, he's always drilling shots." Vinson said he was proud of his shooting ability, but Self stopped short of lauding his stroke. "He does like to shoot," Self said. "He's much more ready to run a team than he was last season." Vinson said some of his development as a point guard came from his five-minute, one-rebound, one-assist performance against Marquette University in the 2003 national semifinals. you can't even see all the way up" "You definitely jump a little higher and run a little faster," he said. "You know it's big when you're on the bench, but then you get out there and you realize there's people all around you, and He said former Marquette guard and current NBA all-star Dwyane Wade was the best player he'd ever faced. "Seeing his success at the professional level has made me feel a little better about the way I played against him," he said. Self said Vinson's respect for other players and teammates made him a key part of the Jayhawk's preseason No. 1 basketball team. "I love this guy," Self said. "I think he's certainly going to leave his mark on this program." Brown looks for breakout season Edited by Jon Ralston By JONATHAM KEALING jkealing@kansan.com KANSIAN SPORTSWINTER All she needed was the opportunity. And that's what junior Kaylee Brown got with new coach Bonnie Henrickson's arrival in Lawrence. P. MURTHY BROWN "I think she's given me a chance to show my abilities," Brown said. Henrickson has no shortage of praise for Brown. Described as a "pleasant surprise," Brown figures to have a huge role on the team this season. "Her attitude is great and she's in the best shape of her life," Henrickson said. With the departure of senior Larisha Graves, Brown has a good chance at cracking the starting rotation alongside Erica Hallman and Aquanita Burras. Brown played in 25 games last season, starting five times. She contributed to the team with seven three-pointers, second most on the team. She also added 16 assists and 12 steals. "H er attitude is great and she's in the best shape of her life." Bonnie Henrickson Women's basketball coach The limited number of players on this team not only affords Brown the chance at starting time, it also gives the coaching staff more time to work with each player. Henrickson said that Brown has benefited from the individual attention each player can get with a small squad. "What we've done with Kaylee is looked at her shot, tweaked a few things. Just lots of reps and lots of scoring," she said. From Brown's point of view, this season could be a huge turning point for her. "We definitely need scoring," Brown said. "I'm expecting to help my teammates as best I can, help us win." If Brown can score and develop into a solid player, Kansas should have a better perimeter game than they have in many years. Edited by Danielle Hillix BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealing@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITHER Sophomore guard develops more skill Going into this preseason, he may not have even seen time on the floor. But then, sophomore guard Nick Bahe started to impress. He spent his summer working on shooting and speed and he progressed enough that coach Bill Self decided he probably would not take a redshirt this season. "Nick has played well enough that he may warrant playing time," Self said. Bahе, a walk-on from Lincoln, Neb., turned down scholarship offers from several schools including Boise State and Bowling Green to become a Jayhawk. "In a lot of places, Nick Bahe would be in the top six or seven. He's really fundamental, a great shooter," said senior Keith Langford, Bahe's roommate. In his one-year career he has 11 points and nine rebounds. His career-high of six came against Nebraska, playing several kids he knew. Last season, Bahe was used primarily as a reserve at the end of games. Last season, he played in 16 games for a total of 61 minutes. "It's always fun when you can add heated battles. When you know guys and it becomes a little more personal," Bahe said. "There wasn't any animosity, but it makes it more fun when you know the guvvs." Against Nebraska, Bahe had six points, coming from two three-pointers. This season will be a challenge for Bahe, who risks being caught between two high-profile classes. This senior class has been touted by many analysts as one of the best in the country. Then there's the freshman class which was rated the second best in the country by rivals.com. "All I want to do is help the team in whatever role I can," Bahe said. "Whatever the team needs me to do, I can be shaped and molded to whatever you need." Off the court, Langford and Bahe like to have a good time together. Anyone who saw Bahe dance at Late Night knows that he isn't afraid of making a fool out of himself. "We should have TV cameras following us around every day, because it's always something different," Langford said. Bahé isn't that worried about either class though. He thinks the senior class will give the team the best chance to win. Until Bahe sees his first minutes on the court he could still take a redshirt. For now though, he's not dealing with the season any differently than before it started. HORNETS Edited by Ashley Doyle Kansan file photo Kansas sophomore guard Nick Bahe spent most of last season cheering from the bench, playing only 61 minutes in 16 games.

For a repeat performance this year, she will likely have to shruff off frequent double teams underneath the basket. Jared Soares/KANSAN BY FRED A. DAVIS III fdavis@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWEEK Crystal Kemp has endured a lot during her time at Kansas. The junior forward from Topeka is playing for her third coach in as many years and returns as the Jayhawks' leading scorer and rebounder. Kansas has only nine players on this year's team, which means teams are going to concentrate much harder on stopping the Big 12 Conference's 12th leading scorer from a year ago. Kemp is aware teams will double-team her, but she is not worried nor will she allow it to affect her or the team's performance this season. Kemp took time after practice to talk about new Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson and any relation to former NBA star Shawn Kemp, among other things. Q: What was your initial impression of Coech Henrickson? Kemp: "When she first got here, I was in Texas visiting family. I hadn't seen her, but I had talked to her on the phone a few times. She seemed like she was a really nice person, and everyone was telling me she was ready to come and work hard." Q: What has been the biggest difference between Coach Washington and Coach Henrickson? Kemp: "I think it's been more terminology and the way they want us to communicate. It's like that with any coach, but it's just getting used to the way coach wants things said." **How is the style of play going to change this season?** Kemp: "Coach will probably slow it down, so we can get into our offense, so we don't feel like we're going to rush, but I think that is for us since we're so few in numbers." Kemp: "How we are going to adjust to that lack of depth, I think that is the most important thing. If one person gets into foul trouble, we're going to have to play it safe the rest of the game. I know our number (of players) is going to hurt us, but it's not going to put us down or hurt our effort." Q. What is your biggest concern outside of lack of death heading into the season? Q. How will you deal with teams trying to stop you? How can you use with back-to-back teams? Kemp: "We play against the dream team, a group of guys that go to school here. They're pretty big, athletic and quick — quicker than any girls we'll face in the league. So we practice against them, but there's nothing in particular we do. I know I'm going to get double teamed, but that just opens it up for the other four players." Q. If you had a dime for every time you were asked if you're related to Shawn Kemp, how much money would you have? and was glad that she did that." Q. How were you affected by coach Washington stepping down in the middle of last season? Kemp: "It was as much of a shock to us as it was to everyone else. She did a really good job of keeping it (her health) to herself. It's something you don't want to see happen, but I'm only here for four years, and even if she were to continue coaching, I'm only here for four years. And I don't think anything is that serious to where your health is an issue; she needs to take care of herself first, and I respected her for that Kemp: "I'd have a whole bunch of cheese. Probably over a million dollars. I get asked that every time I meet someone, as a matter of fact, coach asked me that today." Q. How did you and the team react to coach Henrickson's rule to cover up tattoos? Kemp: "A lot of times you get tattoos to show them off, so it's hard when someone wants you to cover them up, and it came as a shock to us to have to cover them up, and we really didn't like that. But it's cool though. It's a respect thing, and we respect coach Henrickson's rule." — Edited by Steve Vockrodt Case glad to play for Hawks despite surprises BY KELLIE ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRITER Things haven't gone according to plan for sophomore guard Jeremy Case ever since he decided to play basketball at Kansas. And he has recently been held out of practice because of a groin injury. Roy Williams, the coach who recruited him, left before he ever arrived. Half of his class transferred to other schools after a single year. PENN STATE BASKETBALL CASE Despite the string of unexpected events, he remains confident that he made the right choice in schools, and he said he never considered transferring. "I love it here. It's a lot of fun," Case said. "would never base my decision on leaving just because others are leaving. I'm really happy righ now." To show his commitment to the Jayhawks, he wears a red Nike bracelet with an inscription reading "team." The bracelet represents his dedication to being a team player for the Jayhawks, he said. Senior forward Christian Moody said Case's attitude was an important part of the team. "Jeremy has got a heart for this team," said junior forward Christian Moody. "He really wants us to win whether he's on the court or not." Last season Case was used sparingly, generally playing only when games got out of hand. He showed he had the ability to knock down threepoint shots, though, and could become a consistent sharp shooter for Kansas. The main question surrounding Case is whether he will take a redshirt this season. He said the injury was getting better, and he could participate in practice in a week. He shoots the ball more after practice than he used to, and his mobility is returning. Coach Bill Self did not play Case during the Jayhawks' exhibition tour in Canada. If he had seen action on the trip, he would not be able to take a redshirt during the regular season. Case has spoken with Self about the possibility, and a decision will be made soon. "Right now I really want to play." Case said. "I feel like I can help the team out. But if it comes down to it I wouldn't mind red-shirting." — Edited by Bill Cross 0 Open the door... to a superior education at Dodge City Community College.

"I t comes Extended television package to showcase women's team --- D ar 886 BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITCH D ar 886 "You tell me," Hallman said, giving a big, toothy grin. "I think we've got some TV faces." Kansas junior guard Erica Hallman believes her face is ready for the big time. Lawrence residents will be seeing more of the Jayhawks' smiling faces this season, as 19 women's basketball games will be televised in the surrounding area, a number that far exceeds the Jayhawks' four appearances on television last season. "I'm happy we have all the TV time we do," said senior guard Aquanita Burras. "We're just trying to promote women's sports, especially here. We're trying to get on the map." The new television package will feature five nationally televised games — three on Fox Sports Net and two on College Sports Television. Another nine games will air on Sunflower Cable, four on Metro Sports and one on the Jayhawk Television Network which broadcasts across the state. The television plan, which makes Kansas one of the most televised women's basketball teams in the country, is all part of an effort by athletics director Lew Perkins and new coach Bonnie Henrickson to renew interest in a team that has not been well supported in the last few seasons. The University also announced a new radio deal with stations in the Kansas City area, allowing the Jayhawks to expand their radio coverage, as well. Henrickson said she believed fans would be impressed with "I can promise you that when people watch us that we will compete and we will play hard and win or lose, we will win or lose with class. I think as people watch it, they will understand maybe it isn't exactly what we want it to be right now, but we are headed in the right direction and we will do it the right way." Bonnie Henrickson Women's basketball coach the way Kansas will play. "I can promise you that when people watch us that we will compete and we will play hard and win or lose, we will win or lose with class." Henrickson said. "I think as people watch it, they will understand maybe it isn't exactly what we want it to be right now, but we are headed in the right direction and we will do it the right way." Players are also optimistic that the increased television audience could lead to an increase in attendance. The Jayhawks averaged just 1,539 fans in their 12 home games, as compared to an average crowd of 5,007 in their 12 away games. "I'm real excited because hopefully being played on TV more will bring more fans to the seats," said sophomore forward Alicia Rhymes. "And if we get more fans then more people will know about us, and then we'll get a better TV program. It will all just lead up to better things." One group Henrickson is especially trying to reach is the students. The coach said attracting college kids to the games was one of the most difficult parts of her job because of their busy schedules. "I'm not sure they understand that if you don't come, then you are hurting us because then you become who we're playing," Henrickson said. "You help them if you don't show up. You help whoever we're playing that night by not attending and not supporting." Henrickson is trying to change the mindset of her school's students. Hallman said students could have a large impact on the games if more started to show up. "You've seen them at the men's games and at the football games, but the men are winning, so they're definitely going to come," Hallman said. "Hopefully we can start going in that direction, and they can see that and come out and support us." With the expanded coverage, Henrickson said her main goal was just to get people to watch and see for themselves what Jayhawk women's basketball is all about — playing with class and playing the right way. "You can write about that, and they might hear me talk about that, but I think another piece is for them to see that." Henrickson said, "Because we think you'll be able to see that. We know you'll be able to see that." - Edited by Johanna M Maska NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews Now. 1 kansan.com Qdoba College is about trying new stuff.

Campers pass the time by sleeping, studying or playing video games — all for that elusive front-row seat. Camping continues By JENNIFER SHER jsher@kansan.com KANSAN'S SPORTSWITHER November isn't usually considered a prime camping month — except in Lawrence. The basketball season kicks off Nov. 7, and that means the camping season is about to begin as well. Though it is not outdoor camping, there are sometimes tents. Camping in Allen Fieldhouse for prime seats at basketball games is a huge part of Kansas basketball tradition. Jim Marchiony, associate athletic director, said he thought the tradition was very special one. "It is a unique tradition that the students have created," he said. "It adds to the spirit of Allen Fieldhouse." It does not matter who the opponent is, Marchiony said. There will always be campers. "There are not but a handful of schools that will have students camping out for an exhibition game, especially when they already have a ticket with a guaranteed seat," Marchiony said. But getting a good seat is not the only reason that students camp. The atmosphere of the fieldhouse hallways is part of the Kansas experience. "It is a lot of fun to get a group of people together and hang out for a week at the field-house," Jake Hills, Bonner Spring junior, said. "We bring food and tents and it is something we will remember for a long time. We usually get a lot of homework done as well." Many times coaches or athletic personnel will surprise the dedicated campers with donuts or pizza. Big games draw more than 100 camping groups and plenty of media outlets. Camping is student-run and begins at early 6 a.m. the morning after the previous home game or a week before the next home game. Groups named "Phog Phanatics" and "I like my SELF" are created. Students can bring up to 30 people to the early-morning lottery. As soon as a spot in line is secure, campers switch off in a rotation, making sure someone is there at all times to represent the group. At any time, someone from one a group may call "roll call," where each group's name is read. If no one is there to represent a group, that group is disqualified and must sign up again at the bottom of the list. Before the non-camping students are let into games, campers are lined up outside the fieldhouse in a line sometimes reaching and winding clear down Naismith Drive. Each group is given a number indicating its camping rank, and they enter in that order. Neil Spector, Buffalo Grove, Ill., junior, made sure his group, the "Nutheads," was always present because he knew he would get a great seat. "We all had a great time camping. It is well worth the time when you get to sit behind the Kansas bench," Spector said. "It is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. It is really hard to get those seats so I am glad we camped." Spector said his group planned to camp again this year, especially with a reduction in student seats. It is crucial for fans to camp for seats at big games, including contests against Texas and Missouri. For the most part, students are civil when camping, Marchiony said. He said he just wished the students would clean up after themselves a little better. As long as basketball continues to be a tradition at Kansas, winter will be camping season in the fieldhouse. Whether it is the "Langford Lovers" or the "Bill's Boys" each group has one goal: to have the best seats in Allen Fieldhouse to cheer for one of the best basketball teams in the country.

The Jayhawks are 0-8-1 all-time against the Longhorns. Two weeks ago, Kansas suffered a 1-0 double-overtime defeat to Texas, which cost the team sole possession of the Big 12 regular season championship. "It will be good to get another crack at them," said junior forward Caroline Smith. "We know what we have to do. We've seen them before, and we know what to expect." Both Texas and Kansas had yesterday off after cruising to easy victories in their opening round games. No. 1-seeded Kansas defeated Iowa State 4-1, and No. 4 Texas knocked off Nebraska 2-0. Coach Mark Francis said that his team used the day mostly for rest. The team had a short practice in the morning and then watched game video. "The tournament is tough because it's three games in five days," Francis said. "That is just unheard of in soccer." The key for Kansas today will be slowing down Texas senior forward Kelly Wilson. She scored the goal that defeated Kansas earlier this season, and scored both goals in Texas' first-round victory Wednesday. Texas dominated Kansas offensively when the teams last played. The Longhorns took 27 shots at the goal while the Jayhawks only took nine. Texas held a 14-3 shot advantage at halftime. The Jayhawks' lack of offense was "T he tournament is tough because it's three games in five days. That is just unheard of in soccer." Mark Francis Women's soccer coach partly due to the team playing Texas after its biggest conference victory of the season against Texas A&M. The team had trouble keeping up its intensity. "We won't have that problem in our next game." Francis said. "Texas beat us in the regular season. Our girls know that and I don't think focus will be a problem again." Another factor that will motivate Kansas is the opportunity to reach the championship game. Kansas is 2-4 in the tournament and has never reached the championship game. If Kansas defeats Texas, the team will play the winner of the other secondround game between Texas A&M and Colorado in the championship game on Sunday. NSCS defeats Pi Kappa Phi Edited by Anna Clovis Team improves record to 3-0, doesn't take winning too seriously BY JESSICA FERGEN jfergen@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITHER There's no one-man volleyball team. Other sports, such as basketball, can allow one person of higher talent to take over and win the game. Volleyball, however, requires teamwork beyond most other sports. The team proved working together could get the job done. NSCS defeated Pi Kappa Phi in two short games, 25-12 and 25-9. The challenge of transforming individual organization members into a cohesive volleyball team is what the National Society of Collegiate Scholars' men's volleyball team faced when the team took on the men of Pi Kappa Phi fraternity on Wednesday in the Student Recreation Fitness Center. TEAM ROSTERS The team showed cooperation and communication in both games, talking during the volley and encouraging each other when things went wrong. Jeremy Prichard Drew Nedved Weng Hong Chan Cheng Kin Lao Scott Goldstein Zachary Puckett Ricky Temkin Seven men responded and decided to play in the men's open division. None of the members had played together before, and most of them hadn't even met. However, every team member has shown up for every game so far. Before the season started, NSCS sent an e-mail asking if anyone was interested in playing intramurals to all its members. NSCS went into the game with a 2-0 record that defies the team's lack of experience. Pi Kappa Phi was 0-2. "We really just want to come out here and have fun," said Willem Chan, Macau, China, junior and NSCS member. "The winning is nice, but we don't take any of it too seriously." Pi Kappa Phi - Justin Stein - Tom Fevold - Ryan Montefalcon - Matt Paschang - Craig Young - Dan Ensley - Ryan Gegen - Luke Nath - Jonathan Albers - Dane Berger - Patrick Millsap Source: Recreation Services "We met and started warm-up about two minutes before our first game," said Scott Goldstein, Hyde Park, Ill., sophomore and NSCS team member. "We just had chemistry and a will to win. Tonight we really stepped it up." Pi Kappa Phi's team was frustrated after the loss. But despite the rough night, Pi Kappa Phi was optimistic about its opportunities for improvement. "It's early in the season and we're going to have to bump it up to three-a-day practices," joked Pi Kappa Phi's Patrick Millsap, Wichita sophomore. "We'll be back to win it next time."

Brian Lewis/KANSAN Basketball begins Sunday Players excited to face fresh competition; lineup still uncertain BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER As much as he likes his teammates, senior forward Wayne Simien said he was ready for a change. "We've been playing against each other for about three weeks now, and guys are getting tired of beating up on each other," Simien said. "We're all excited to get out there and play against some new faces and different uniforms." The Jayhawks will get that opportunity in their first home exhibition game Sunday. Kansas takes on Division II Emporia State at 7 p.m. in Allen The game will hold extra significance for the five freshmen — forwards C.J. Giles, Darmell Jackson, Sasha Kaun, Alex Galindo and guard Russell Robinson — who will play in their first collegiate home game. "It's our first game in Allen Fieldhouse in front of all the fans," Robinson said. "We'll get to see it up close, so it's something we're looking forward to." Kansas coach Bill Self said his substitution pattern might alter slightly for the exhibition game. The team will nine or 10 players, with the rest of the team getting to play at the end of the contest Self said he could switch his starting lineup, though he will likely start seniors Aaron Miles and Keith Langford and sophomore J.R.

Basketball players honor 19-year coach BY MIRANDA LENNING mlenning@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITHER Kansas men's basketball coach Bill Self told a brief story about the day he became the coach at Kansas last night at the Bert Nash Community Center's Evening with Ted Owens benefit. Self called three people before the press conference: Larry Brown, Roy Williams and Ted Owens. "He called me collect," Owens interrupted from the crowd, drawing a roar of laughter. That set the scene for an evening that included speeches by All-Americans, former players and coaches. The point Self was trying to make was that Owens, who coached Kansas basketball for 19 years from 1964-1983, still had a special impact on Kansas basketball. Through all the inkes, laughter and stories, Owens' career was the focus of last night's event. "There have been a handful of coaches before you, and there will be a handful after you, but none will have a better impact on this basketball program, on this University or on their basketball players," former player Roger Morningstar said to Owens during his speech. Another former Jayhawk, JoJo White, said Owens had a special ability to get close to his players. "He was one of only two people that I allowed to call me Joseph Henry." White said of his real name. Former Missouri coach Norm Stewart was scheduled to speak, but could not oe there, so he sent a pre-recorded message to his former foe. "The way that you ran a program, you were one of the best." Stewart said.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Falcons coach Jim Mora's response "What goes around comes around." It was a subtle dig at the Broncos, who for the second straight week find themselves in a debate over what's legal and what's moral in the NFL. "I don't think etiquette and football really go together — but there's a code of conduct," Lynch said. "Thirty yards away from the ball, I don't think that's necessary." At issue was receiver Brian Finneran's block on Lynch in last week's game. Finneran broke the bone above Lynch's tailbone when he hit the safety on the side. Lynch conceded the hit was legal, but maybe not necessary — a conclusion that was easy to figure simply by seeing his reaction after the play. The Broncos originally said Lynch would be out for two to four weeks, although he was listed as doubtful for Sunday's game because of his insistence he can play. "I've always tried, when I'm injured, to be hopeful, optimistic," Lynch said. If Lynch can't play, Nick Ferguson will start in his spot.

Stadiums' renovations ballot rejected THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Members of the Jackson County Sports Authority, which oversees the stadiums used by the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals, will have a lot to talk about today when they meet for the first time since voters shot down a ballot initiative that could have provided $600 million for stadium renovations. The so-called Bistate II measure, which proposed a quarter-cent sales tax for renovations and the arts, failed in four out of five metro-area counties Tuesday. Management for the Chiefs and the Royals said they remain committed to Kansas City and will live up to their leases, which end in 2014. But Dick Berkley, incoming authority chairman, noted those leases depend on a number of potentially expensive repairs and expansions being completed, and it is unclear now where his organization will get the money. Without those repairs, Berkley acknowledged, the teams could argue the leases are worthless and look to greener pastures either elsewhere in the Kansas City area or beyond. "There is that vulnerability," he said. "That's why we had the vote." The authority now receives around $11 million a year for maintaining the Truman Sports Complex through a combination of state and local funding, as well as rent from the teams. Berkley said most of that money is used to pay off debt from the last round of renovations. He said the group on Friday will get a list of what projects need to be done immediately and estimates of the costs. "This puts a different tone on it because there may be things that have never been done," he said. The teams have voiced optimism since Tuesday's defeat, saying they will work with the authority to get the renovations completed. But they also have said they needed to begin considering all of their options to make sure they don't fall further behind their football and baseball peers in other cities. Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt told The Kansas City Star on Wednesday that it may make more sense to build a new stadium in 2014, as opposed to renovating Arrowhead, which opened in 1972. "That is probably where we need to begin to think." Hunt said. He said he had no plans to move the team, which enjoys one of the most fervent followings in the NFL and consistently sells out home games. The Royals' owner, David Glass, was unavailable yesterday, but Mark Gorris, vice president of business operations, said the team also has no plans to get out of its lease. "Our focus is to remain a viable entity within the metro area," Gorris said. "We believe that can happen. We're going to do the best we can with what we have." Gorris said needed repairs at Kauffman Stadium include replacing deteriorating plumbing and wiring, increasing the number of bathrooms and concession stands, more than doubling the width of stadium concourses to reduce bottlenecks, building more luxury suites and installing brand new scoreboards. Tiger Woods not playing well after marriage THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ATLANTA — Not everyone wants to see Vijay Singh wins his 10th tournament of the year. Three guys who shared the lead yesterday in the Tour Championship would be thrilled to win their first. Darren Clarke, Jerry Kelly and 50-year-old Jay Haas each had a 3-under 67 on a soggy, blustery and entertaining first round at East Lake, a good start as they try to end their seasons on a good note. "I've had a very poor year," Clarke said. "We all play to win, and I haven't managed to do that this year so far." Singh has won nine times, and he put himself in position to become the first player since 1950 to reach double digits. Despite going 15 holes without a birdie, the Fijian recovered from enough missed shots for a 69. "It was a day where you just have to manage yourself, get around, not get too far from the lead." Singh said. And for those who wondered how marriage would change Tiger Woods? He still can't hit a fairway. In his first tournament since getting married, Woods struggled off the tee and out of the rough, finishing with a 72. Entertainment came from Ernie Els. who broke his putter while slamming an 8-iron into his bag and finished the round putting with his sand wedge. He also had a 72. "I wasn't making putts, I figured I might as well use the sand wedge," Els said. "That didn't work, either." The 67 was the highest score to lead the Tour Championship in the four years it has been held at East Lake. Only 13 players among the top 31 on the money list managed to break par. And no one was surprised. Heavy rain yesterday morning turned fairways into small rivers, but a new drainage system at East Lake allowed the season-ending tournament to start on time. It dried up so well that tour officials decided to play the ball as it lies, leaving players to face several shots with mud splattered on their golf balls. Then came the wind, whistling through the trees and making the closing holes play even tougher. Perhaps it was no coincidence that the trio in the lead had the earlier starting times. Either that, or they know this is their last chance to win. Haas has gone 11 years without a victory, although he wouldn't trade his season. He became the second-oldest player in the Ryder Cup, and Wednesday was honored with the Payne Stewart Award.

"it's cozy." freshman opposite hitter Emily Brown said. Horeisi holds only 1,300 fans, by far the smallest capacity among Big 12 Conference volleyball arenas. The next smallest are Oklahoma's McCasland Field House with a 2,000-person capacity and Texas' Gregory Gym with a 4,000-person capacity. Other Big 12 teams, including Missouri, Kansas State and Iowa State, play in buildings built for basketball. Practicing with the close walls Brown said playing in such spacious arenas could play tricks on a player's mind. and low ceiling of their own coeum helps the players, but they said it was not difficult to adapt to the larger arenas in the Bif 12. "The ball definitely hangs up a little bit," she said. "That's something I have to adjust to." Senior middle blocker Ashley Michaels said depth perception was not an issue once the match started. "It's something we adjust to in warm-ups," she said. "I don't even think about it when I'm playing." Prior to Horejsi's opening in 1999, Kansas played its home matches in Allen Fieldhouse. Coach Ray Bechard, who coached one season in the field- house, said the team's facilities had improved since it received its own arena. "There's no question it's an advantage to have your own building," he said. But at times in the fieldhouse, the Jayhawks could enjoy many more fans than they do now. Four times, the fieldhouse seated more than 10,000 patrons for a volleyball match. But those four games immediately preceded the "Late Night with Roy Williams" festivities to open the basketball season. The team's only sellout victory in Horei s also preceded Late Night. Kansas defeated Iowa State on Oct. 15, 1999. Other sellouts have seen crowds bolstered by Nebraska and Kansas State fans. - Edited by Neil Mulka FOOTBALL Perkins says location for facility not decided The University of Kansas Athletics Department countered reports yesterday that a proposed new facility for the Jayhawk football team would be built in the south end zone of Memorial Stadium. Articles in the Lawrence Journal-World have reported that the University was working on the donation necessary to fund the endeavor, and that it would be built in the south end zone of Memorial Stadium. In Tuesday's University Daily Kansan, columnist Ryan Greene criticized the location of the project because it would interfere with the traditional "walk down the Hill" of the University's graduating senior. In response to the reports, Athletics Director Lew Perkins released a statement that con- firmed the department was pur- suing fundraising for the project,but that the location of the future facility had not yet been determined. "When we have secured the funding necessary to build a suitable facility, we will meet with the chancellor and all appropriate University administrators to determining the best location for it," Perkins said. He added that whatever decision was made would recognize and consider the graduation traditions associated with the stadium. -Kansan staff reports OWENS: Banquet raises money CONTINUED FROM 1C "I just can't believe how many people came such a long way to contribute to tonight," Owens said. the third annual benefit put on by the Bert Nash Center, a mental health service provider. Proceeds go to the Bert Nash Center's Community Endowment Trust Fund. About 500 guests attended. "Back in 1964, we all thought Coach Owens has serious mental health issues." Morningstar said. Morningstar found humor in the collaboration of former basketball players and coaches and the Bert Nash Center. Owens is the third-winningest coach in Kansas history. He led Kansas to six Big Eight Conference titles and an overall winning record of 348-182. He coached five All-Americans. "The most outstanding thing about coach is the longevity he has here, with the number of All-Americans and good teams he coached," Dave Robisch, an All American, said. Morningstar agreed that Owens remained a part of his former players' lives. "He has always kept in touch with us throughout our lifetime," he said. "I have had a wonderful ride through life and Coach has been a huge part of that." Owens said hearing from his former players was rewarding. "It makes me feel so good when they came back and say, 'coach we remember when you said this and that.'" Owens said. "I am happy just to have been part of their lives. That is my greatest memory." Edited by Bill Cross BASKETBALL: Players ready CONTINUED FROM 1C but said workouts left something to be desired. "I don't think practices have been bad, but they haven't been great," Self said. "We have talked a lot about that as a team. I feel like our energy level and our enthusiasm and intensity haven't been consistently good enough." The game could be a good change for the Jayhawks, who had 10 extra days of practice before Labor Day exhibition trip in Canada. "We're all ready." Robinson said. "I think we've put enough work in practice and in Canada that it's time we start the season off." Galindo may miss Sunday's game because of injury. He is listed as questionable after missing practice earlier this week with an injured groin. He returned to practice Wednesday. Guards Stephen Vinson and Jeremy Case, who are also afflicted with groin injuries, will not play One guard who will be available is Nick Bahe. The 6-foot-2 sophomore sat out the entire Canadian trip to consider a red shirt, but has decided to play this season after talking with Self. The contest will be a homecoming of sorts for Emporia State coach David Moe. The fourth-year Emporia State coach was a graduate assistant to former Kansas coach Larry Brown in the 1987-88 season when the Jayhawks won the National Championship. Self was also an assistant on Brown's staff, serving in the 1985-86 season when the team finished with a 35-4 record and a trip to the Final Four. Before coming to Emporia State this season, Moe worked as a Colorado assistant coach for eight seasons and developed a friendship with Self, who was an "I went down there and spent some time with him earlier this fall," Self said, "and I know that he likes his team." Moe will find out quite a bit about his team early, facing a challenging six-day exhibition schedule. The Hornets travel to Spokane, Wash., tonight to face Gonzaga before returning to play Kansas Sunday. The team will then go on the road Wednesday to take on Wichita State, which is picked to finish second in the Missouri Valley Conference by coaches and media. Emporia State finished 22-7 last season, ending with at No. 22 in the final Division II poll. The Hornets will look to rebuild this season after losing all five starters from last year's squad. assistant at Oklahoma State during the same time.

Sophomore quarterback Adam Barmann is likely out for the remainder of the season, and junior Jason Swanson will start in his place against Colorado. Sophomore running back John Randle and junior Clark Green are both nursing injuries, but both expect to play. These injuries could not come at a worse time, as the Kansas offense has been struggling lately. The Jayhawks not only need to win this contest, but they need to win the remaining three games to be bowl eligible. The Buffaloes come in at 4-3 and still have hopes for a Big 12 North title. They are led by their junior quarterback Joel Klatt, who has passed for more than 1,300 yards in six games this season. However, like Kansas, Colorado is also missing a key offensive component in senior tailback Bobby Purify. Purify is questionable for this week's game with a shoulder injury. Both teams need to win this game, but with Kansas' question marks on offense, expect Colorado to prevail. Edue: Colorado Defensive Line Both teams have been successful in getting pressure on the quarterback this season, as Kansas has 16 sacks, while Colorado has 19. The Buffaloes are led by sophomore defensive end Alex Ligon, who has 4.5 sacks this year and has also forced two fumbles. The Kansas defensive line is led by senior defensive end David McMillan, who has four sacks on the year. The difference between these two defensive lines is in stopping the run. Colorado ranks last in the conference in rushing defense, allowing more than 188 yards per contest. Kansas is currently third in the conference in the category, giving up about 112 yards per game. Kansas has been dominant in stopping the run. Look for that to continue this week with Colorado possibly missing its leading rusher. Edge: Kansas Offensive Line Colorado's offensive line has done a good job of protecting its quarterback, allowing just nine sacks this season. This has allowed Klatt to be successful throwing the football, and the team is averaging 227.7 passing yards per game. Kansas has not been as strong stopping the pass rush, giving up 16 sacks so far on the season. The Jayhawk offensive line has also struggled to open holes for its running backs, and the team is averaging just 2.8 yards per rush. The average could drop even lower because Randle and Green are both battling injuries. With Colorado doing a great job giving time for its quarterback to throw, the edge goes to the Buffs. Edge: Colorado two best wide receivers from last season, but this year the wide outs are still producing. The air attack is more balanced as well, as the team has six players with 10 or more receptions and three with 20 or more. The receivers are led by junior Evan Judge, who has 24 receptions for 302 vards and three touchdowns. Colorado may have lost its With the Kansas offense sputtering in recent weeks, the Jayhawks' wide receivers have seen less opportunities. The team has not had more than 200 receiving yards in any of the last four games. On the season, senior wide receiver Brandon Rideau leads the Kansas wide receiving corps with 409 yards and five touchdowns. Expect Kansas' offense to continue to struggle this week. Edge: Colorado Secondary Colorado's secondary is one of the worst in the Big 12, as the Buffaloes are last in the conference in pass defense and have just six interceptions on the season. Kansas' secondary, on the other hand, is tied for first in the conference in interceptions with 13. The Jayhawks are led by sophomore cornerback Charles Gordon, who has four interceptions on the season. The secondary will face a quarterback in Klatt who has thrown two more interceptions than touchdowns this season, and with its starting running back potentially limited this week, Colorado may have to turn to the air for offensive success. The Kansas secondary may have junior cornerback Theo Baines back in the lineup after he missed all of last week's game against Iowa State. But even if Baines does not play, look for the Kansas secondary to be successful. Edge: Kansas Quarterbacks After using Adam Barmann most of the season, the team will have to adjust to playing in front of Swanson all the time with Barmann out with an injury. Kansas football coach Mark Mangino said that Swanson was making great strides, but fans will have to wait until Saturday to find out just how great. Colorado's Joel Klatt is not only a football player, but has spent time in minor league baseball as well. Klatt has amassed some impressive number in his three years at Colorado. This season, against Texas A&M, Klatt went 23-34 for 329 yards and two touchdowns. Edge: Colorado Running Backs If Kansas' running backs are healthy, they can be a couple of the most dangerous in the Big 12. When injured, as both Randle and Green are, they aren't as effective. Looking at Colorado's depth chart, there's no listing for running back, only versatile back, shorthand for versatile back, and tailback. Versatile back is a new roll, with junior Lawrence Vickers inspiring the position. He can cut like a tailback, charge like a full back and catch like a receiver. At least, that's what his coaches say. Meanwhile, tailback Bobby Purify keeps moving the ball and is slowly approaching the top of Colorado's all-time rushing mark. Clark Green 30 Three Buffalo linebackers, sophomores Walter Boye-Doe and Thaddaeus Washington and junior Brian Iwuh are all listed as only probable for the game, all three nursing leg injuries. However, Jordon Dizon is a difference maker for the Buffers. A true freshman, he has started six games and leads the team in tackles with 61. Kansas' linebackers are pretty close to being the class of the Big 12. They may not be the flashiest group, but they go out and try every game. Juniors Nick Reid and Kevin Kane have had banner seasons in which they have contributed tackles and sacks Jason Swanson Edge: Colorado 8 and have climbed to the top ranks of Big 12 statistics. Edge Venge Edge: Kansas Special Teams Few Big 12 teams are worse at kicking field goals then Kansas. But on the bright side, things have been getting better. Aside from a tough field goal in swirling winds that went off the uprights last weekend, senior place kicker Johnny Beck has been consistent over the last few games. The punting has been solid, and strong. If the team can keep penalties down, special teams could be a game changer. returns have been Colorado's special teams have the distinct advantage of playing in an atmosphere that's very thin. It's no wonder then that sophomore placekicker Mason Crosby's season-long field goal is 60 yards, and junior punter John Torp leads the Big 12 with an 47 yards per punt. The quality of Buffaloes' punt and kick coverage teams is solidly in the middle of the Big 12, as is their success with point-after-touchdown conversions. Without the friendly air of Folsom Field, the special teams will not be as good as they are at home. Edge: Kansas Coaches One coach has 15 years of head-coaching experience, two Big Ten titles, five bowl appearances and was suspended indefinitely this offseason. The other coach has three years of experience as a coach, no conference championships, just one bowl appearance, but no suspensions. With all the controversy from rape accusations and recruiting violations Colorado went through during the offseason, perhaps coach Gary Barnett deserves credit for getting his team to win at all. Mangino, on the other hand, has taken a team that was just about at its lowest point and turned it in the right direction. While Barnett has done well with a team in trouble, why reward someone for bad acts off the field? Edue: Kansas - Edited by Neil Mulka kansan.com the student perspective Nix Shaving!

PAGE 1B KANSAN VOL. 115 ISSUE 56 MONDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2004 GOP chairman resigns College Republican accused of taking group's money BY ANDY HYLAND ahyland@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Justin McFarland, chairman of the KU College Republicans, resigned last Thursday after the group's treasurer discovered he took $1,300 from the group's bank account last April and May without approval from the executive board. McFarland resigned at the group's meeting on Thursday, and vice-chairman Josh Steward was promoted to chairman of the group. McFarland said that he would issue a statement on Tuesday at the group's meeting apologizing to the group. "My intent was not to hurt the group in any way, and I hope that my actions do not reflect negatively on the group." McFarland said. McFarland refused to comment on what specifically he used the money for, but Steward said that McFarland told him he used the money to reimburse himself for group-related travel expenses and fund future group activities such as barbecues and parties. Steward said the group didn't normally reimburse members for travel expenses, and that McFarland did not seek approval from the executive board before removing the money from the account. "We asked him to resign, and he agreed," Steward said. The executive board also set up a payment schedule so that McFarland could pay back the money to the group, and the group did not intend to press charges. Steward said, assuming that he stepped down and paid the money back. "If we would have thought it was fraudulent, then we would have pressed charges." Steward said. www.kansan.com Jay McLaughlin, the group's treasur er, said that he noticed the group's account was lower than he thought when he was first given access to the bank account the week of Oct. 18. He said he requested a bank statement, and noticed three withdrawals totaling $1,300 last April and May. He said that McFarland wrote out the checks. The group normally spends around $300 to $400 a year, he said. McLaughlin said he brought the issue to Steward's attention, and consulted a University official, whom he declined to name, about what to do next. The official told McLaughlin that the University had no official position on the matter, so the group's executive board decided to handle it internally, McLaughlin said. "I think they wanted to resolve the matter as quickly as possible," he said of the executive board members. They talked to McFarland, and he admitted to spending the money, although he provided no receipts or itemized list of expenses, McLaughlin said. It was a tough decision, McLaughlin said, because so many people liked McFarland. "It wasn't the person, it was the behavior," he said. "I do feel bound by duties and ethics to not perpetuate what may or may not be a crime." The KU College Republicans receives money from Student Senate collected by student fees, but both Steward and McLaughlin said that money was not touched. Diana Rhodes, Senate administrative assistant, confirmed that the group had not used Senate funds for any illegitimate reasons, and provided reports saying that the group only spent Senate funds on "legitimate advertisements" since last year. Elizabeth Moss, the former events coordinator for the group, was elected vice-chairwoman on Thursday, McLaughlin said. - Edited by Ashley Bechard FIRE UPON BUSH Contributed by Lucas Wetzel ABOVE: The photo, contributed by Lucas Wetzel, Westwood graduate student, is of a poster in an apartment Bonn, Germany.

Contributed by Shannon Sanderson Election reactions from abroad BY LAURA FRANCOVIGIA francovigia@kansan.com KANSAN STaff WRITE Though the presidential election ended almost a week ago, students studying abroad haven't seen the end of it. The Kansan sent an e-mail to all students currently studying abroad and asked for perspectives on the outcome of the election. The following are excerpts of the responses. I haven't experienced any personal backlash or unpleasant treatment because of being a U.S. citizen after the election. Most of the Costa Ricans limit San Jose. Costa Rica their hatred to Bush and his foreign policies, and don't have anything against "gringos" in general, and certainly not in particular. Mostly, the Costa Ricans just can't understand how Americans could have been so stupid as to reelect him. The only gringos that they have met aren't Bush supporters; that just seems to be the demographic that travels abroad. As such, they generally think that no Americans support him, and it's really hard to explain how or why 51 percent of the public does support the man that they call torturer and murderer at worst and war criminal or idiot at best. Physical police force meets protesters SEE ABROAD ON PAGE 5A BY AMANDA O'TOLE aotoole@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER A 23-year-old Lawrence resident said a Lawrence Police Department officer kicked him in the groin several times during an arrest at about 2 p.m. Saturday in the 300 block of 23rd Street. The group marched north on Massachusetts Street and turned west onto Ninth Street. Strano said a police car pulled behind the group when they turned onto Ninth Street and told marchers through a bullhorn to get onto the sidewalks or they would be Dave Strano, was one of about 25 people who met at South Park on the corner of 13th and Massachusetts streets to march in protest against the invasion of Fallujah, Iraq. Sgt. Craig Shanks, Lawrence police shift supervisor, said he could not comment on the situation. He said questions about the arrests should be made to Sgt. Dan Ward who was not available for comment yesterday. According to the Lawrence Journal World, Sgt. Mark Warren said the protesters had not notified police of the protest and "police had arrested the protesters for failing to comply with officers' instruction and for interfering with traffic." ticketed. More police cars arrived as the group walked toward Kentucky Street, he said. Eli Stogsdill, Lawrence junior and protester, said there were 11 police cars, a transport vehicle and an animal control vehicle were on the scene by the end of the arrests. Stogsdill said protesters continuously asked officers which laws they were breaking. He said they continued to march on the right-hand lane of Ninth Street until an officer told a marcher with a baby that if she was arrested her child would be put into foster care. He said several people were "slammed on cop cars" as they were being arrested. Nine protesters were arrested and eight were charged with disobeying lawful order, impeding the flow of traffic and unlawful parade, Strano said. The ninth person had an additional charge of interfering with police duties, he said. "I was really blown away." Stogsdill said. Officers at the Douglas County Jail, where the nine were taken, told Strano that the only offense worthy of an arrest was disobeying lawful order, he said. The bail was $55 for the people who were charged with three offenses. "We didn't really belong in a jail cell, we should have been ticketed," Strano said. Strano said he was considering taking legal action against the Lawrence police. Stogsdill said they had heard that others planned to take the department to court. Sarah Taylor, 2004 KU graduate and protester, said she didn't think the police were violent but that officers had gone beyond the boundaries of their duties. "They took a peaceful march and escalated it into something negative," she said. "They brought that negative element in." Edited by Steve Schmidt FOOTBALL New facility gets funding irks students BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealing@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITTER Details became more clear with the announcement of a $4 million donation by the Kimbell family, $3 million of which is earmarked for the football facility. Two weeks ago, Kansas football coach Mark Mangino confided in the media that Kansas Athletics Department was just a few weeks away from announcing a "home run" for his football team, and its hope to build a new football-only facility near Memorial Stadium. "This facility will help KU be more competitive with other Big 12 programs," athletics director Lew Perkins said in a press release. "By consolidating all football activities into one area, the facility will free up space needed for other sports, especially our women's athletics programs." Right now, all of the sports offices are contained in the Anschutz Sports Pavilion, located adjacent to Allen Fieldhouse. Assistant athletics director Jim Marchiony said construction of the new football facility was expected to cost about $25 to 30 million dollars. A story in *The Kansas City Star* indicated that about $9 million of that total had been made. Marchiony indicated that the Athletic Department hoped this announcement would encourage further donations. Assuming enough funding can be found, all football offices, meeting rooms and presumably weight equipment as well will be relocated to the new building. "We hope so," Marchiony said, "because we think it's important to know we are very committed to making the football program as good as it can be." As it stands right now, the football facility would be a one to two story structure at the base of Mount Oread and Campanilie hill, just south of Memorial Stadium. Only "a very small percentage" of the preliminary work has been done, however, according to Marchiony. The plan to construct it at the base of the hill has caused consternation among KU students and fans. A column in The University Daily Kansan, written by Ryan Greene, may have touched off some of these concerns, which were further voiced by a caller to Mangino's weekly radio call-in program on Thursday. Student concerns center around how the facility would affect the tradition of graduates walking "down the hill" and into Memorial Stadium for the commencement ceremony. The fan who called the radio show voiced a concern that the facility might block the view of the Campanile. Perkins responded to several of those complaints this week in article appearing in the Lawrence JournalWorld. "We recognize the time-honored graduation traditions of the University of Kansas at Memorial Stadium; we will make decisions regarding the proposed facility's location with thoughtful consideration of those traditions and the best interests of the University." Perkins told the newspaper.

Bush mulls what to do after being re-elected, voters say his first priority should be resolving the situation in Iraq, where the fighting is growing more intense.

Dandara, leader singer for the group Pambores Do Brasil, pumps up the crowd during Carnaval II Saturday. The party, organized by the Brazilian Student Association, was held at Abe and Jake's Landing, 8 E Sixth St. Brazilian group sponsors party BY NIKOLA ROWE nrowe@kansan.com KANSAN STAF WRITE Out of season doesn't mean out of style to Rafael Demarco, Recife, Brazil junior. At the Carnaval II — Micareta, or carnival out of season, Demarco, Brazilian Student Association social chair, said that Brazilian style was the vogue, as hundreds of people filed into the party sponsored by the University of Kansas Brazilian Student Association. More than 800 tickets were sold before the night was over at the Carnaval II Saturday night at Abe & Jake's Landing, 8 E. 6th St. The student group sponsors Carnaval, every spring, but this year the executive board wanted to start a new tradition with another party in the fall. Last year ticketes were sold out, Terena Silva, president of BRASA, said. "We didn't want to make them wait another year," the Recife, Brazil junior said. Ticket sales for the event were slow at first. For the spring Carnaval the tickets usually sell out by Friday, Silva said. With every new tradition you have to start somewhere, Silva said, but he said was happy with the results. BRASA and Sao Paula senior, said the prizes were not big, but they are things that you can only find in Brazil. Alves said it was stuff that she missed from home, like Brazilian chocolate. Tickets were put into a raffle to win Brazilian products. Barbara Alves, vice president of Inside the club the Brazilian band Tambores Do Brasil took over the entire stage with percussionists and lead singer, Dandara belting out lyrics in Portuguese. Everyone was really getting into the band and the singer was great, Demarco said. In Brazil a Carnaval would be held in the streets, but here we have to have them in clubs. There is the same joy here as there is at home, Demarco said. "I love it," Janaina Correa, Macapa, Brazil sophomore and member of the Kansas volleyball team, said. "This is the best thing we have for Brazilians." Katie Laird, Leewood senior, said she appreciated the opportunity for everyone to enjoy the Brazilian culture. The party brought in students from across the state. Tisha Rivas, Wichita State sophomore, said that a friend from the University told her the party would be something different. Rivas said that her friend was right. She had never been to a party that was as energetic, she said. 1980 - Edited by Ashley Bechard Professor has a 'peel' with students BY AUSTIN CASTER acaster@kansan.com XANSA STAFF WINTER Central America expert integrates laughs, fruit into teaching style Charles Stansifer took a different approach than most professors to tardiness in his Modern Latin America class last Friday. "Uh-oh, someone's late!" Stansifer said as he shot the student with a yellow bananashaped squirt gun. Stansifer showcased his banana paraphernalia during his final lecture about the Banana Republics: Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras and Guatemala. Retiring professor Charles Stansifer gave his final speech on the Central American countries of the Banana Republic to his Modern Latin America class in Wescoe Hall last Friday. Stansifer passed out bananas and banana-flavored candy for the occasion. He specializes in Central America. Throughout his 41 years at the University he has served as the director of the exchange program twice. Stansifer took students to visit the banana plantation at the University of Costa Rica, he said. He has traveled around the country to give his lecture at colleges and high schools, he said. The professor of Latin American history will retire at the end of this semester. Since the 1970s, Stansifer has tried to appeal to students by slipping humor about bananas into his lecture, he said. Stansifer joined the University of Kansas staff in 1963 and gave his first banana lecture in the mid 1970s, he said. A former professor inspired him to incorporate humor into lectures. "To be honest, this is the one lecture they all remember," Stansifer said. He called his collection of banana memorabilia a museum. He said former students gave him banana-themed presents. Items include banana Christmas ornaments, bananized glasses and a banana umbrella. Stansifer displayed his collection in the mid 1980s on the lawn of Allen Fieldhouse in honor of Mayfest. He said he gave away 400 pounds of bananas in two "I think he's an excellent teacher," said Kuznesof, director of the center of Latin American Studies. "He does hours. "W When a profes sor incorporates humor, it's easier to relate to them. You feel more comfortable. It's easier to get through a topic that's a little more serious." Megan Bates Lawrence senior have great relationships with his students." Kuznesof met Stansifer in 1976. Megan Bates said Stansifer's humor was usually more subtle but she enjoyed the banana lecture. "When a professor incorporates humor, it's easier to relate to them," Bates, Lawrence senior, said. "You feel more comfortable. It's easier to get through a topic that's a little more serious." The self-proclaimed certified "bananologist" gave students bananas and banana-flavored candy. "They're quite possibly the world's most perfectly packaged fruit." Stansifer said. He explained how nutritious bananas were because of their low fat content, high potassium and lack of cholesterol. Stansifer made his audience members' sides split with his punch lines, limericks and cliches. He joked about dictatorship, communism and even religion made it into the lecture. "Adam was tempted by an apple," Stansifer said. "Eve was tempted by a banana."

The tempting but greasy smells of fried chicken and hot, crispy waffle fries were too much for him. He couldn't stop himself from being led by his nose, not his head. But then he stopped. It wasn't because he realized he was ruining his health. He moved on to pizza and fast food Chinese. These fatty food choices are not poor Ross's fault. He thinks real food comes in white wrappers and pizza boxes. Like most of us, Ross has been raised in a culture in which fast food has been our friend. It's there immediately when we're hungry. And then it goes straight to our tummies and butts and stays. Fast food companies have seduced us since we were children, and they're here today on campus. As kids, we bugged our parents for sugary cereals. Now, when we get home from classes and there's nothing to eat, we cruise the drive-thru. On campus we have the Underground in Wescoe Hall, unveiled in September. It serves fried chicken, oily Chinese stirfry and grease-and-cheese pizza. "Healthy" choices include Crustano's, a sandwich place, and a salad bar. The Underground's strategy is not to fuel the student body with sound nutrition. It partnered with franchises guaranteed to make it money such as Pizza Hut, Chick-Fil-A and Jump. Fast food has followed us here, but it's partly because we asked it to. Mike Myers, assistant manager of Kansas Memorial Unions, said food choices in the Underground were driven by a student survey. Students were asked to express their brand preferences and identify them in terms of "healthy" and "greaty." Thirty percent of students surveyed chose brands that offered hamburgers, such as Burger King, and also identified the food as "greasy." Thirty percent chose sub sandwiches, and identified that food as "healthy." (Meat, cheese and a few wimpy veggies on bread is healthy? Not very). The rest of the students said they would prefer to eat Mexican food (not known to be lean) or the "other" category. COMMENTARY GUEST COMMENTARY LOUIS E STAUFFER lstauffer@kansan.com One student said the most desirable food choices on campus would be the same ones they could get on 23rd Street (i.e. fast food mecca). It's not hard to figure out why students want this. Brand advertising targeted us as kids. We watched Toucan Sam push Fruit Loops during Saturday morning cartoon commercial breaks. Tony the Tiger told us Frosted Flakes were "Grrrreait!" The only thing sugar-coated flakes are great for is pumping kids full of sugar, at 14 grams of it per serving. One of my most vivid childhood memories is attending a fellow preschooler's birthday party at McDonald's. We got our own Happy Meals, complete with a toy. The playground was all ours, and we were visited by none other than Ronald McDonald. What wasn't there to like? Tasty food, a cool toy, a playground and a clown who sang it was OK to eat junk "if we believed in magic." We were sold at four years old. Ronald McDonald has become a lifelong lunch-buddy for many. He taught us that whenever we were hungry, his food would always be there. And so we grew to think that real food comes in bags. Or white pizza boxes. Book It, a program by Pizza Hut that rewarded reading with pizza, hit my elementary school by storm. The more books you read, the more "free" personal-pan pizzas you got. I remember seeing fellow classmates at Pizza Hut on many a Friday night. We ate our greasy pizzas with pride, and I'm positive we hadn't read about the 750 calories, 36 grams of fat (56 percent of an adult's daily value) and 15 grams of saturated fat (73 percent of an adult's daily value) we were ingesting in a supreme personal pan pizza. All we had to do to get another er one was read a few more Babysitters Club books. Those same pizzas are sold at three locations on this campus. Myers said Chick-Fil-A is the top-seller these days for the Kansas Unions, with Pizza Hut coming in second and Burger King third. A chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A has 16 grams of fat, 28 grams of protein, 38 grams of carbs and 410 calories. An order of medium waffle fries has 350 calories, 17 grams of fat, 3.5 grams of saturated fat and 2 grams of trans fat. Fast food isn't going to go away. But we need to realize that we're smart enough to beat these companies, and the Kansas Unions, at their own game. Real food isn't freezedried meat and pre-made pizzas. Ann Chapman, dietician at Watkins Health Center, said most of the damage when eating this type of food is the saturated fat content, which can lead to an increased risk of heart disease. "If that's steady in a diet, it really is dangerous over the years," she said. Chapman said indulging in fast food once or twice a week is OK, if you eat healthfully the rest of the time. The point is, junk food is not your friend. The same companies who pump little kids full of sugar and cheeseburgers are still peddling to us, and we're still eating it up. After college comes the real world, where some of us will work long hours sitting at a desk and then swing through the drive-thru on the way home. Eating healthy is not going to get any easier. "We know we have room to improve," Myers said. "But ultimately, it's the responsibility of students to make healthy choices." I've made a choice: I'm not going to give up an occasional snack of Cheez-its from campus vending machines. But, out of concern for the size of my butt, and my bodily health, I am swearing off the carb-fat-sugar pushers who have tracked us from childhood to campus.

ABROAD: Students share international opinions CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A The emotion I encounter most is disbelief and incredulity, mingled with disgust. — Shannon Sanderson, Olathe senior Costa Rica It is easy to see from the elections that America is divided. But here, abroad it is pretty much a union of people who do not support Bush. It is an odd miss being abroad where every day you wake up and step outside you are a representation of your country. Everyday people are summing you up to the only part of America they usually know, the commercial materialist part of America, that has breached the borders of Costa Rica. There was a great deal of interest in America and the election in the first month I lived here, but now that it is over, the questions about and scrutiny of America seems to have subsided a bit. Natalie Spiess, Overland Park senior University of Hamburg in Northern Germany Most people I talked with, whether they were from Germany or Romania or Slovenia, didn't seem to think Kerry would do anything different than Bush in regards to Iraq or world affairs. One bar that was hosting an election night party had pictures of Bush and Kerry beneath window paintings of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, though I can't remember who was who. Lucas Wetzel, Westwood first-year graduate student Dortmund. Germanv The people in Europe tend to be very politically aware; they pay attention to what goes on in the world, they keep up with their local news, and they consider it their duty as citizens to vote whenever they have the opportunity to do so. There was a local election recently, and literally ever German student I know voted. They can't fathom the idea of not voting. So they didn't really believe me when I said a lot of people didn't support Bush; they thought, if Americans really don't believe in his ideals, he wouldn't be in office. I'm embarrassed to have to explain the level of apathy some Americans have concerning their own nation, and therefore their vote. Although there is a definite anti-Bush sentiment here, which will probably turn into an anti-American sentiment seeing as we how we voted him back into power, there have been no strong or violent reactions, just a kind of general disappointment in the United States that I have come to share. Kimberly Warnken, Rochester, Minn., senior Dortmund, Germany One week before the election, I was talking with a friend from the Czech Republic about the English class in which she is enrolled. I begged her to tell me about what the class was learning. She mentioned articles: a, an, the. I asked her to say something in English, anything. Very quietly, and with hesitation, she said, "Mr. Bush is an idiot." Her English teacher had been teaching the class such statements. I assured my friend I voted against Bush. She thanked me and told me how scared she is, how scared everyone is. Jill Allen, St. Louis senior Middlesex University, London Obirin University, Tokyo, Japan My history professor actually told me that our elections get more coverage than any other election, even theirs. I am not for sure if this is correct but the election propaganda is everywhere. As soon as people realize that you are American they want to know who you voted for, and then they want to talk politics for hours. The overall opinion here is that Bush is not a good guy. There was a huge party in my dorm the night of the election. Everyone tried to stay up and watch the states votes come in and when it looked bad for Kerry the mood got a little hostile. There really hasn't been any backlash that I have experienced. There is disappointment here that President Bush was re-elected, and everyone wants to know what we think about it, but for the most part they are nice while they rally against our country's leader. I guess the immediate problem I've had after the election has been that its suddenly a lot harder to be an American here. No one gives me trouble or bullies me, its just that they innocently ask me some questions which are really hard to answer. The anti-Bush sentiment is very strong here. A lot of people tell me how he throws his weight around the world without paying heed to what friends and allies of the U.S. have to say about it. And he seems to shoot first and then ask questions later. I guess if I were to describe the mood here after the election in one word it would be: "disbelief." Which goes for the Japanese and the other exchange students as well. The Japanese constantly took to me for some kind of explanation about Bush's election, as though I know some secret, some kind of shocking good that he's done in the last four years, and the other Americans who know of our state's politics ask me in the same way why Kansas always goes Republican, for both of them I can only answer that I personally don't know. Maybe someone in America can tell you, but they aren't here. — Amanda Marnell, Wichita junior — Bobby Del Greco, Shawnee junior Nanjing, China It is very common for Chinese people to directly come out and ask you about our government. Some of the questions I have been asked: "Why do many Americans support Bush?" "Is the reason Bush was re-elected into office because Americans didn't want to change presidents in the middle of a war?" "Why do Americans think they should get involved in other peoples' wars?" "Why did the American government think that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction when they really didn't?" "What do you think the next step in the war on terror will be?" One thing that takes getting use to is being expected to be able to answer all these questions. The Chinese expect you to have all the answers to their questions and that you should answer them. The U.S. elections have been the top story in Dutch newspapers and television channels. My university here even had an election night event with a panel of political scientists, American food — hot dogs and popcorn — and the live CNN broadcast. About 80 people showed up, no more than 10 were Americans. — Megan True, Overland Park junior Europeans really do take an interest in U.S. politics, and it seems like several of them even know more about the candidates than the average American. One of my Dutch friends said the elections are such a big deal because the American president is the "most powerful man in the world." I have traveled a lot through the Netherlands, and I have never met a Dutch person that preferred Bush. And I don't think the anti-Bush mentality stops at the border. I have friends from over a dozen European countries here and no one has admitted to preferring Bush. Last weekend, while I was in Belgium I saw many signs for a "Fuck Bush" party. Many people have asked me: "How can more than half of Americans be so stupid?" A lot of people ask me why anyone would ever support Bush. Universiteit Measricht, Measricht, Netherlands The news on television and the newspapers does not display the same negative reaction that the Spanish people are expressing. Many of my friends that I have from Spain view the election as a sign of the end of the world, as if this means President Bush will start a World War III. I try to tell people not to over react, but many Spaniards can't help but take the re-election of President Bush personally. One of my Spanish professors told me that she thought the whole world should have been able to vote in the elections since the outcome affects the entire world. Granada, Spain — Dan Peters, St. Paul, Minn., junior — Katy Humpert, Winfield junior In all my conversations about Bush with Europeans, not one of them has told me how the election in the U.S. will affect them personally. This makes me wonder, "Why do these people care so much?" It is just about all of Europe that hates Bush, not just Spain. I traveled around Western Europe this summer, and in Rome, I specifically remember seeing anti-Bush propaganda tagged on buildings. Right away, my experience in Europe became centered around political issues. Even outside of the classroom, where we spend some time on current politics, conversations tend to revolve around the U.S.government. Paris and Florence, Italy — Greg Nylander, Clarendon Hills, Ill. On three occasions I have been stopped on the subway or questioned in a restaurant. "Are you American?" "Do you support Bush?)" or "Who'll get your vote?" Twice I have simply been lectured about how important the U.S. is to the world and how although our government is "stupid" the European Union relies on us heavily. In the days after the election, I have been surprised about how little commotion there has been. Besides vendors selling peace flags and the average "FUCK AMERICA" graffiti freshly painted on buildings the tone here is pretty calm and indifferent. For the Australians I spoke with, they saw the election to be Bush, the established and effective incumbent, versus Kerry, a no-namer with little experience. They were surprised to find out that Kerry actually had a longer political history and that he had any chance of competing with Bush. Apparently this stems from the positive relationship John Howard, recent re-elect, has with Bush. Australia depends heavily on the U.S. for economic reasons. Basically they didn't really care about the election, but they seemed to be content with Bush and unsure about Kerry. Oh, and the biggest surprise to them was that we had the "choice" to vote while they had to, or pay a healthy fine. Bob Bruce, Leawood senior -Kathryn Anderson, Omaha, Neh. junior James Cook University, Townsville, Australia James Cook University, Cairns Australia People here were really interested in the election, some more than a lot of the Americans here. One of my Aussie friends described John Howard, their recently re-elected prime minister, as "George Bush's ass-baby." Whatever Bush does, Howard will follow and pretty much every student and professor strongly dislikes Howard's conservatism. We were all, Aussies and Americans alike, pretty bummed about the situation. As for Bush, most people I've talked to around here feel that he's making America and its followers enemies to so many other countries. University of Wollongong, Wollongong, Australia Among the students here in Wollongong, both American and Australian, there was overwhelming support for Kerry and a strong desire to get Bush out of office. I think in a way that this skewed my belief in how the election would turn out, because I'm constantly surrounded by liberal students (of which I am definitely a part). When Fahrenheit 9/11 was released here everyone was excited to see it. What surprised me though with both the Australian and American elections was that there seemed to be a hidden base that really came out to support the conservative candidates — both Bush and Australia's re-elected Prime Minister John Howard. It seems that both countries are very polarized between the winners and the opposition. — Victoria Downey, Merriam senior — Edited by Ashley Bechard I'll just use a placeholder.

Rove talked about the re-election of President Bush. WASHINGTON — Insisting he has no litmus test, the Republican in line to head the Senate Judiciary Committee pledged yesterday not to stall President Bush's judicial nominees, even if the prospective judges oppose abortion rights. The White House expressed confidence its choices would get a fair hearing. Sen. Arlen Specter, a moderate from Pennsylvania who backs abortion rights, said he has supported judicial nominee in the past who do not agree with the Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion. "The fact is that I have supported all of President Bush's nominees in committee and on the floor. I have never applied a litmus test," Specter said on CBS "Face the Nation." Looking ahead to the post-election session of Congress that begins Nov. 16, House Speaker Dennis Hastert said he thought House and Senate negotiators should be able to resolve their differences over competing versions of legislation to overhaul U.S. intelligence agencies. With the election producing stronger Republican majorities in both the House and Senate, Hastert (R-III.), also spoke of the need "to find solutions, and we should do it on a bipartisan basis." A newcomer to the capital, Sen. elect Barack Obama, (D-III.), said the election indicated to him that "people want to get beyond the slash-and-burn, scorched-earth politics that I think has become the custom in Washington." Meantime, White House political adviser Karl Rove said Bush in his second term "absolutely" would push for a constitutional amendment that says marriage consists only of the union of a man and a woman. Rove added that the president believes states can deal with the issue of civil unions between gay people, an arrangement that if enacted would grant same-sex partners most or all the rights available to married couples. Right after Tuesday's election, Specter set off a furor among conservatives when he said anti-abortion judges were unlikely to be confirmed by the newly elected Senate. He said Bush has had trouble getting some of his nominees confirmed because of Democratic fillbusters. He added: "I would expect the president to be mindful of the considerations which I am mentioning." Filibusters, a bill-killing tactic of unlimited debate, remain possible in the new Senate because the Republicans' 55-45 majority falls five votes short of the 60 needed to cut off debate. Yesterday, Specter said he was only pointing out a political fact: Republicans alone lack the votes to quash a Democratic filibuster of a Bush nominee.

PAGE 2B SPORTS MONDAY, NOVEMBER 8,2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN JEAN SHORT MADNESS www.kansan.com RYAN GREENE rgreene@kansan.com JEANSHORT MADNESS Women's basketball: a chance worth taking Do you remember the time you were sitting in a movie theater during the previews, and you saw a coming attraction for a movie that looked like a complete and utter train wreck? For me, that movie was The Matrix. For one, it starred Keanu Reeves. That caused an immediate gag reflex, as I consider him the only actor in the past 10 years worse and more overrated than Colin Ferrell. Second — well actually make it second, third and fourth — it just looked stupid. When it came out, it did surprisingly well, and just because people were talking it up so much, I figured I might as well see what it was all about. I actually liked it — a lot — and had officially bought into the saying 'never judge a book by its cover.' Now, I own it on DVD and it's in my regular rotation. The same can be said for the Kansas women's basketball team, which tips off its season Tuesday night in an exhibition game against Fort Hays State. My Matrix experience and the 2004- 05 women's team are eerily similar. Does it look like a potential train wreck? Well, there are certainly some red flags. There's the first-year coach leading a group of players comprised mostly of kids she didn't recruit. Plus, there's the fact that that group only consists of nine players. Also, the Jayhawks play in the Big 12 conference, which automatically presents one of the nation's toughest schedules. On top of playing conference foes, Kansas' non-conference schedule is no cake walk. There is even a Dec. 5 game at Minnesota, which played in last year's Final Four. This season could either be as ugly as the last two, or a pleasant surprise. But coach Bonnie Henrickson has already scored her first victory of the season, in that she has created a slight buzz on campus. There's no question that her shortened roster will get exposed by the Big 12's deeper teams, but Henrickson knows how to spin everything off as a positive. Hentrickson's first two moves to get some momentum going have been talking about her team's re-vamped work ethic and treating them as an elite team While Marian Washington was a great people person and an outstanding recruiter, Henrickson is more of a drill sergeant who will squeeze every last drop of effort from her players. Henrickson is making her players feel that the effort will be worth it by talking about their potential. The Jayhawks have some players who could be very solid collegiate ballers. Junior point guard Erica Hallman and freshman backup Sharita Smith both can become outstanding leaders, and both have above average natural playmaking abilities. Senior Aquanita Burras is a potential 17 point per game two-tuard who is a solid defender, and junior forward Crystal Kemp is still a raw talent who can get tough points inside. However, these girls have heard the same things about their individual games ever since arriving on campus. Henrickson will actually help them realize it. Both Kansas basketball teams open up their seasons this week. The women open tomorrow night against Fort Hays State. For my money, there ought to be more interest in the women's opener anyway, because you don't know what you're going to get just yet. Could the women be a box office bit? Probably not. Will this season be a massacre? There's certainly a chance. But remember, just because it looks that way from a distance, don't be fooled just yet.

Langford scored 15 points in the game. 'Hawks fly in opener Giddens leads triumphant effort BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER Sophomore guard J.R. Giddens said he didn't feel like he had that extra kick in this step last night. "I'm 100 percent healthy," Giddens said. "But I'm not back in the J.R. form — what I think is me." A scary thought for opposing teams, as Emporia State saw more than enough of Giddens in Kansas' first exhibition game. Coming off the bench for the Jayhawks, Gidens stole the show in the first half, scoring 10 straight points in a 96-second stretch as Kansas rolled to a 115-70 victory against Emporia State. "He's still got a lot to work on," Kansas coach Bill Self said, "but when he can stretch the defense and make shots like that, we'll be hard to guard." The 6-foot-5 guard started to heat up at the 3:17 mark of the first half. Giddens made four consecutive shots, including a deep three-point shot for his 10th straight point. He gave his jersey a single tug for the crowd while running back to the defensive end. "I was letting everything go that touched my hand." Giddens said. Freshman guard Russell Robinson sank a pair of free throws to finish a four-minute 19-0 run, giving Kansas a Kansas' size and depth inside, however. would prove to be too much. 61-28 advantage after the first half. With the help of good shooting, Division II Emporia State kept it close early. Senior Hornet guard Tyrell Sledge's one-handed slam off a rebound made it 25-19 with 11:30 to go in the first half. Kansas also received good production from its three freshmen forwards. C.J. Giles, Sasha Kaun and Darnell Jackson provided the Jayhawks with a combined 16 points and 17 rebounds in their first game at Allen Fieldhouse. Jayhawk senior forward Wayne Simien dominated in the paint, scoring 17 points on perfect seven-of-seven shooting from the field. "I thought they did great," Self said. "I didn't think there was a big dropoff when we went to our bench." Freshman guard Russell Robinson had an impressive debut despite playing with jammed fingers on both hands. Robinson scored 11 points — hitting three of four shots from the floor including both of his three-point attempts — and also contributed four assists and a team-high three steals on the defensive end. Giddens led all scorers with 22 points in just 16 minutes of action. Senior guard Keith Langford added 15 points, while senior Michael Lee added 11 Senior teammate Aaron Miles also had a good showing at the guard position, scoring two points but pacing the offense with 12 assists and one turnover. Edited by Anna Clovis Buffs trample Hawks, 30-21 Kansas offense goes into hibernation after injury to Swanson BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealing@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITER The Kansas football team's dreams of back-to-back bowl trips disappeared at about the same time as this week's starting quarterback, junior Jason Swanson, left the field injured. "We felt really good coming into the game about our preparation on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball," coach Mark Mangino said. "We practiced very well this week, but we just couldn't make enough plays to win the game." Kansas (3-6 overall, 1-5 Big 12 Conference) jumped to an early lead with an offense which looked the best it had since a 63-14 victory over Toledo on Sept. 11. On the first drive of the game, Kansas drove 80 yards in eight plays. It was the first time an opening drive for Kansas led to a touchdown since conference play began. The drive was capped by a two-yard touchdown run by sophomore tailback John Randle. Setting up the drive was a flea flicker which Swanson completed to junior receiver Mark Simmons for 33 yards. Simmons and Swanson hooked up repeatedly before Swanson was forced out of the game. Simmons, who hauled in Swanson's first two passes, had 48 of his 52 total receiving yards on those two grabs. Simmons downplayed his ability to connect with Swanson. "It was luck of the game," Simmons said. "He was able to read the defense, find open receivers and it happened to be me on the plays he was in."

Soccer defeated, misses title game Longhorns beat Hawks 3-2 in double overtime of tournament semifinal BY KELLI ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SWISSPORTWRIER Fox Sports televised the Big 12 Tournament second round game between Kansas and Texas live, but they could have shown a tape of the game the two teams played two weeks earlier and few would have been the wiser. Both games ended with a Texas senior named Kelly scoring a golden goal with two minutes remaining in double overtime. "Déjà vu," senior forward Monica Brothers said. "It was almost the same goal." This time around Kelly McDonald scored the game winning goal instead of Kelly Wilson. And the final score was 3-2 instead of 1-0. This game seemed to hurt the Jayhawks more than the first one, mostly because they held a 2-0 lead late in the contest. Texas managed to score two goals in the last 20 minutes, though, and forced overtime. "We outshot them, outdefended them and outplayed them," Brothers said. "But they scored when they had to. You can't take that away from them." Wilson remained the Jayhawks' nemesis, as she played a part in all three Texas goals. She sent the game to overtime by scoring on a penalty kick in the game's 83rd minute and recorded assists on the Longhorns' two other scores. "I don't want to see Kelly Wilson Mark Francis Women's soccer coach "I don't want to see Kelly Wilson again. Or Kelly --again." coach Mark Francis said. "Or Kelly McDonald for that matter. They're solid players that finish the chances they get, and that's why they get the kind of recognition they do." McDonald for that matter. They're solid players that finish the chances they get, and that's why they get the kind of recognition they do." With the loss, Kansas remained winless in 10 games against Texas. The Jayhawks also kept alive their streak of never reaching the tournament's title game. The good news for Kansas, Francis said, is the team will get two extra days of rest as they prepare for the NCAA Tournament, which begins on Friday. "In the big picture of things the team that lost this game got a blessing in disguise," Francis said. "Now we don't have to worry about banging ourselves up in the title game." Kansas struggled offensively at the start of the game. Texas consistently attacked for the first 15 minutes and kept senior goalie Meghan Miller and the rest of the Jayhawks' defense on their heels.

Contact Danielle Hilliz or Joe Bant at 864-4858 or sports@kansan.com Buccaneers hold off Chiefs THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TAMPA, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Buccaneers found a way to beat the Kansas City Chiefs. They simply outscored them. Michael Pittman scored one of his three touchdowns on a team-record 78-yard run and Tampa Bay held off the Chiefs 34-31 yesterday, giving the Bucs consecutive victories for just the second time since they won the Super Bowl two years ago. The Chiefs (3-5) totaled 101 points and 1,130 yards in victories over Atlanta and Indianapolis the previous two weeks, and put up another big day statistically against Tampa Bay. irrent Green threw for 369 yards and three touchdowns, but was intercepted by Dwight Smith in the end zone with lesss than six minutes to go. He was sacked on consecutive plays to end Kansas City's last threat near midfield. Priest Holmes scored his 14th rushing touchdown of the season on a 2-yard run, but was on the sideline when Bucs defense put the clamps on Kansas City's last two drives. There was no official announcement on why Holmes, who gained 282 yards and scored seven touchdowns the past two weeks, was not in the game. The league's leading rusher had been listed as probable to play with a sore ankle, and finished with 59 yards on 16 carries. Brian Griese threw for 296 yards and two touchdowns, completing 22 of 34 passes. The Bucs (5-5) won for the third time in four games after an 0-4 start. Tampa Bay showed it could play offense, too, despite entering the game ranked 28th in scoring (15.6 points) and 24th in total offense (291.7 yards). Rylan Howe/KANSAN Pittman topped 100 yards rushing for the second straight game, finishing with 128 on 15 carries. He scored on a 1-yard run in the first quarter, then broke his 78-yarder on the second play of the third quarter to wipe out a 24-21 halftime deficit. KANSAS KA Ashley Michaels, senior middle blocker, reaches to tip the ball over Anna Stadel, Oklahoma freshman middle blocker, during the Jayhawks' 3-0 sweep of the Sooners Saturday night at Horejsi Family Athletics Center. Michaels recorded 14 kills with a team-best .423 attack percentage. Tournament hopes still alive By Bill Cross bcross@kansan.com KANSAN SWIMMER With a 13-9 record and seven matches left in the season, the Kansas volleyball team needed to win five matches to make the NCAA Tournament, coach Ray Bechard estimated. The Jayhawks looked primed to do that Saturday, as they won the first contest in that stretch against the Oklahoma Sooners, 31-29, 30-20 and 30-20. "We were lethargic early on," Bechard said. "In games two and three, we got some blocks and did a really good job spreading the ball around." Kansas overcame poor hit in the first game of the sweep. The Jayhawks hit just .239, indicating they connected on less than one-fourth of their attack attempts, while the Sooners hit .282. Oklahoma also outblocked Kansas in the first set. Timely kills by senior middle blocker Josi Lima helped the Jayhawks surmount their statistical deficiencies. She was one of four Kansas players to score double-digit kills. "We had a very good scout and everyone knew what they were doing," Lima said. "We did what we needed to do." That balance was more evident in the second game, as the Sooners struggled to anticipate junior setter Andi Rozum's passing. The Jayhawks hit .395 in the second set. The Jayhawks' blocking came alive in the third game as the Sooners hit just .031. Kansas had four blocks in the set. "We settled down and played really well at the end," Bechard said. "It's always nice to be back on your home court." Bechard said his team likely had to beat Oklahoma to stay in the hunt for a NCAA Tournament bid. He said the team's next match, Wednesday night against Baylor, was another must-win. "They're a physical team," Bechard said. "It will be a good challenge for us." Senior middle blocker Ashley Michaels said the team would be motivated to avenge a 1-3 defeat at Baylor earlier this season. "We feel like that was our worst loss this season," she said. The game will begin at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Horejsi Family Athletics Center. SOCCER: Defeat is tenth in a row by Longhorns — Edited by Steve Schmidt CONTINUED FROM 18 shot on goal until the 27:40 mark of the first half. Junior forward Caroline Smith put the Jayhawks on the board four minutes later when she took a pass from senior forward Lauren Williams on a free kick and completed a header into the left side of the goal. The next score of the game didn't come until the second half, when Kansas came out and attacked like Texas did in the first. Just 1:41 into the period, Brothers took a pass from Smith and fired a shot inside the far post from eight yards out. Instead of demoralizing the Longhorns, the second goal of the game seemed to fire them up. "I thought when we were up two goals we were really controlling the game," Francis said. "Then Meghan makes a mistake that is uncharacteristic of her and they fight back and win the game." That mistake came with 20 minutes remaining in the game. Miller ran out of the box in an attempt to grab a Wilson pass, but the ball went off her fingertips, leaving nothing in the way of Texas' Ashley Foster, who knocked in the Longhorn's first goal. Texas kept on the offensive for the remainder of the game, and tied the score at two apiece with six-and-a-half minutes left in the contest. Wilson was fouled after she broke away from the Kansas defense and received a penalty kick. She then faked to her right, freezing Miller, and fired a shot into the left edge of the goal. "I tried to pick a post and was fortunate enough to score," said Wilson. The game then went to overtime, where Kansas squawarded chances to win. The Jayhawks' best scoring opportunity came when Smith maneuvered her way past two Texas defenders and sent a pass to a wide-open Rachel Gilfillan. The left side of the goal was unprotected, but she floated a shot too high, and Kansas never threatened to score again. "We should have buried Texas in the first overtime," Francis said. "We had three great chances to score and didn't finish the plays. And when I say chances I mean really good chances." Fleur de Lis Texas only had one good opportunity to score, but they took advantage of it with 2:04 remaining in the second overtime. Wilson passed to McDonald, who split through two Kansas defenders and drove a shot from eight yards out past Miller for the game winner. The final goal ruined a banner day by Miller. She allowed more than one goal for the first time all year, but she recorded a season high 10 saves. She stopped several Texas shots that appeared to be certain goals. At one point, Miller earned two saves in a span of three seconds. With 25 minutes remaining in the game, Wilson took a shot from the right side, which Miller deflected. Kelsey Carpenter took the rebound in front of the goal and drilled a shot at what appeared to be an open goal, causing Texas fans to start cheering, because they thought a goal was scored. But Miller dove from her knees and miraculously rose up holding the ball. "Their goalkeeper is a great goal keeper," Wilson said of Miller. "She kept them in the game throughout. She made so many great saves." Next up for the Jayhawks is the NCAA Tournament. The selection show will be broadcast on ESPN News today at 2 pm. Francis said he had no idea what seed his team would receive.

J. Giles, freshman center, reaches to block a shot against Shawn Herrman, Emporia State junior forward. Giles blocked three shots during fifteen minutes in his Allen Fieldhouse debut. The Jayhawks defeated the Hornets 115-70 last night. BY MIRANDA LENNING mlenning@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Rylan Howe/KANSAN Not many young men get to celebrate their 19th birthday with a college basketball debut at Allen Fieldhouse and more than 16,000 fans singing "Happy Birthday." Freshman forward Darnell Jackson was an exception, though. And he used his birthday as a reason to provide a spark to his first home game yesterday as a Jayhawk. Jackson said coach Bili Self pulled him aside at halftime and told him to have fun on the court in the second half. "Coach gave me a little pep talk and said, 'Go out there and have fun. Today is your birthday,'" Jackson said. "The band played 'Happy Birthday' to me. That put a big smile on my face." Jackson had other reasons to smile. First, the jitters of playing his first game in Allen Fieldhouse were gone. Second, he played 15 minutes, scored six points and pulled down eight rebounds. Jackson and fellow freshman Sasha Kaun and C.J. Giles didn't look like All-Americans in their first exhibition game, but they did look like three players who will see some playing time this year. For a team that struggled to go deeper than its seventh man last season, the three freshmen could come in handy once the season progresses. For now though, Self said he just wanted to get them to play to their potential. "If we can get a couple of them playing good the same night, we will be a deeper team than a year ago," Self said. "If we can get all three of them playing good, we will be a much deeper team, but it is going to take time." The three combined for 16 points and 17 rebounds, but what was more important than their point production is that they played a combined 46 minutes. "If we can get 40 minutes between those three and they play like they are capable of playing by January, that will be an addition for us," Self said. "Plus, we will have 15 fouls to give instead of 10." Self said not one player stood out among the rest, which meant that the final starting position remained up for grabs, with junior Christian Moody, who started last night, competing with others for the spot. "At least that is what I will tell them until I decide who I want to play more," Self said with a laugh. Until then, the freshmen will If we can get a couple of them playing Bill Self Men's basketball coach Self's strategy of determining his starting lineup is by the players who work the hardest in practice, which keeps players from slacking off. Self has told the team he doesn't know who will start, Giles said. "That is why we just have to keep getting after each other in practice and just compete for that starting position," he said. have this game as a basis to work on, and will have to continue to prove themselves in practice. Giles showed his much talked about athleticism when he came across the baseline to block a shot by Emporia State's Shawn Herman. And Jackson, who has been praised by Self for his passing, also appeared strong underneath the basket, grabbing eight rebounds. Associated Press ranks USC, Oklahoma among top teams good the same night, we will be a deeper team than a year ago. If we can get all three of them playing good, we will be a much deeper team, but it is going to take time." - Edited by Rupal Gor Trojans, Sooners survive scares, maintain their top spots in the AP's top 25 football rankings this week THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The top-ranked Trojans and second-ranked Sooners have lined up that way in the rankings since the preseason. Southern California and Oklahoma made it 11 for 11 in the Associated Press Top 25 on Sunday. No. 3 Auburn was idle but got The stretch of straight polls with the same Nos. 1 and 2 is the longest since 1987, when No. 1 Oklahoma and No. 2 Nebraska also went unchanged for the first 11 polls of the season. USC and Oklahoma overcame double-digit deficits Saturday to remain unbeaten. The Trojans fell behind 13-0 at foggy Oregon State, but rallied to win 28-20. The Sooners were 14 points down three times in the first half at Texas A&M, before Jason White's fifth touchdown pass of the game midway through the fourth quarter provided the winning margin in a 42-35 victory. "There will be plenty to criticize, which will happen," Sooners coach Bob Stoops said, "and we're one of those teams that gets it even when we win." White said, "This game helped us out tremendously." Not necessarily in the polls. USC received 52 first-place votes and 1,611 points in the media poll. Oklahoma had 10 first-place votes and 1,555 points. Auburn needs to close the gap between itself and the Sooners in the polls to surpass a slight bump. The Tigers received three first-place votes, two more than last week, and 1.512 points. They are five points closer to Oklahoma than they were last week. On a day for comebacks, No. 6 Texas had the best. The Longhorns scored 49 unanswered points to beat Oklahoma State 56-35. No. 7 Utah, trying to earn a BCS bid from a non-BCS conference, was 14 points behind Texas. The top-ranked Trojans and second-ranked Sooners have lined up that way in the rankings since the preseason. The ESPN/USA Today poll top four are the same as in the AP poll, but Georgia is No. 5 in coaches voting. Oklahoma in the Bowl Championship Series standings. The BCS standings will be released Monday. Just like in the polls, last week's BCS standings had USC, Oklahoma and Auburn in the top three. No. 4 and unbeaten Wisconsin moved up a spot after a 38-14 victory over Minnesota. California dropped a spot to No. 5 after needing a couple of breaks and a second-half rally to beat Oregon 28-27. No. 8 was Georgia, which plays at Auburn on Saturday, followed by Michigan and Virginia. No. 11 Florida State leads the second 10 ahead of Louisville, West Virginia, Boise State and Tennessee, which dropped six spots after losing to Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish moved into the rankings for the second time this season at No.24. Virginia Tech is No. 16 and LSU was 17th. No. 18 Miami dropped seven spots after losing a second straight game. The Hurricanes fell 24-17 to Clemson in overtime. Iowa and Arizona State rounded out the top 20. Boston College was No. 21 and Texas A&M remained No. 22, despite the loss to Oklahoma. UTEP, which cracked the rankings for the first time in school history last week, moved up two spots to No.23 without playing. Miners coach Mike Price had joked he was nervous that his team would fall out of the rankings on an off week. No. 25 is Oklahoma State, and Southern Mississippi fell out of the rankings after losing 52-24 to Cincinnati. Free Trip to Colorado & Coors Brewery Monday Night Football Enhanced courtesy of J.B.

THE LIED CENTER MONDAY, NOVEMBER 8TH 7:30 P.M. Free to the Public Under the settlement, the landlord must make repairs to the home, including fixing problems with the ventilation system. Business Busey's lawyer, Vicki Roberts, said Saturday the star of The Buddy Holly Story handed over a check for $30,000 in back rent. Busey has lived in the modest three-bedroom home with ocean views for more than a decade. The agreement came as the case was about to go to trial. He claimed that dust and mold in the ventilation system affected his breathing and stopped paying the $6,000 per month rent when the problems didn't get it fixed. Zemeckis, who won an Oscar for directing Forrest Gump, received the 2,268th star Friday. Frequent collaborator Tom Hanks attended the ceremony. LOS ANGELES — Director Robert Zeemekis, traveling on The Polar Express, stopped long enough to pick up a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Actor James Belushi has sued next-door neighbor Julie Newmar for $4 million in damages, accusing the actress of a "campaign of harassment" designed to drive him from his home. Belushi, 50, claims in the lawsuit filed Nov. 2 that Newmar destroyed a fence and landscaping at the home in the posh Brentwood neighborhood and repeatedly made defamatory statements about him to neighbors and friends. Besides $4 million in damages, Belushi is seeking an injunction against the actress and attorneys' fees. The lawsuit also claims that Newmar spied on Belushi's family from her residence and caused a nuisance by playing loud music directed at his backyard. The director of the Back to the Future trilogy, Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Cast Away is known for using pioneering technology to create other-worldly action in his films. UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS SCHOOL OF BUSINESS - The Associated Press Director picks up star on Walk of Fame "He is, to film, a visionary." Hanks said. "He is what Paul McCartney is to music. Bob is without a doubt the most inspirational example of the true work ethic that is needed in order to make movies in this day and age than any other human being I have worked with or come across."

Gordon picked two passes of two passes from Colorado junior quarterback Joel Klatt, giving him six interceptions on the season. His six picks now lead the Big 12 Conference, and he tied with two other players for the most interceptions in the country. Both of Gordon's interceptions were in tight coverage and came only after he made acrobatic catches, but he said there wasn't anything special about the way he was playing. "I had a guy in my face both times, and I had to just go up and focus on the ball," Gordon said. "Just reading the quarter- Charles played phenomenal today. He's a playmaker and he makes plays. He stepped up big time and helped us out like he does every game." Kevin Kane Junior linebacker back, seeing the ball in the air and just going and getting it." Gordon nearly had a third interception in the fourth quarter, as he came darting across the field, dove and caught the ball. But as he hit the ground he landed on the ball and lost it. Gordon was shaken up on the play and left the game with the wind knocked out of him, but he returned to the field just a few plays later. If the interceptions were not enough, Gordon also recovered a fumble and had a sack to go with his four tackles. He played on the offensive side as well, catching a pass for 22 yards. Gordon also returned two punts for 20 yards. "Charles played phenomenal today," said junior linebacker Kevin Kane. "He's a playmaker, and he makes plays. He stepped up big time and helped us out like he does every game." "I don't like to brag about my players, but he's got to be among the best; at least the top 15 in the country," said Kansas coach Mark Mangino. "He makes interceptions, covers people, returns punts, and in his spare time we put him on offense." Gordon said he wasn't concerned with getting overworked and that he did not feel overly tired after the game. Mangino even joked about using Gordon to alleviate the Jayhawks' quarterback woes. Gordon said the last time he played quarterback was in Pop Warner. If Gordon's one throw this season is any indication, he would be a good fit, as he is one-for-one with a 22-yard touchdown toss. KLATT 14 3 Edited by Ryan Green Charles Gordon, sophomore defensive back, chases down Colorado junior quarterback. Gordon picked off two Joel Klatt passes during the game. Kansas failed to capitalize on four Colorado turn-overs losing, 30-21 Saturday at Memorial Stadium. Rylan Howe/KANSAN TRAMPLE: Offense limps to finish line in loss CONTINUED FROM 1B Kansas' next points came very quickly. After giving Colorado the ball at its own 24-yard line, sophomore safety Rodney Harris recorded an interception at the Colorado 28, setting Kansas up for a three-play drive. Randle had another two-yard score to put the Jayhawks ahead 14-0, just under four minutes into the game. However, Kansas' offense was about to be shocked out of its success by the loss of Swanson. A ntite more than two minutes after leading Kansas to a two-touchdown lead, Swanson was forced off the field by Colorado's senior tackle, Matt McChesney McChesney said after the game that Swanson did not look happy as he climbed off of him. "I wasn't trying to hurt anyone, but I got a pretty good lick on him," he said. With sophomore Adam Barmann in street clothes, Mangino turned to senior walkon. John Nielsen. Nielsen last played against Kansas State on Oct. 25, 2003, when quarterback then-starting quarterback Bill Whittemore left with an injury. Until this week, junior Bryan Luke had been listed as the reserve quarterback, however Nielsen took over that role after Luke's performance last week. "Give credit to John." Mangino said. "just three weeks ago he was running the scout team offense." Mangino said that Nielsen took about 12 snaps per day in each of this week's practices. All week he was prepared to be the backup, which Nielsen said allowed him to feel more comfortable then when he was surprised against K-State. "This week in practice, I got a lot more reps in there," Nielsen said. "I felt a lot more prepared than last year." Down 14-0, Colorado scored 17 unanswered points to take the lead away from Kansas. Included in that run was a 41-yard fumble recovery shortly after Nielsen entered the game. Dominique Brooks returned a Randle fumble 41 vards for a touchdown. This was the third consecutive week that an opponent has returned a Kansas miscue for a touchdown right after a new quarterback entered the game. Against Oklahoma, Swanson fumbled, and junior Brian Luke did the same thing against Iowa State.

"Turnovers can kill you in a tight game, and that particular turnover hurt us because of a momentum swing." Kansas' last score came on "T hat fumble early in the game that Mark Mangino Football coach was picked up and returned for a touchdown certainly stung because we had momentum." another 80-yard drive, this time of 12 plays. That drive was highlighted by two career-long passes by Nielsen. The second, of 27 yards, capped off the drive and was caught by senior Brandon Rideau, Kansas took a 21-17 lead, but was unable to defend it. Kansas' best performer in the game was sophomore cornerback Charles Gordon. Gordon led the team in interceptions with two, had a fumble recovery and a quarterback sack. He also caught a pass for 22 yards, the seventh game this season in which he had a catch. His six interceptions for the season gives him sole possession of first place in the Big 12 in total picks, and ties him for first in the nation. "I played pretty good," Gordon said.

From smartphones to smart homes, devices are becoming more integrated into daily life. However, as technology continues to evolve, there are challenges that need to be addressed. One major challenge is the need for interoperability among different technologies. To achieve this, companies must work collaboratively to develop standards and protocols that allow devices to communicate seamlessly with each other. Another challenge is the need for safety. As technology advances, so does the risk of accidents or injuries. Companies must ensure that their products are designed with safety in mind, including features such as childproof locks and explosion-proof designs. Finally, there is a need for sustainability. As technology becomes more efficient, it will require less energy to produce products. Companies must invest in renewable energy sources and reduce their carbon footprint. In conclusion, the future of technology is characterized by rapid advancement and innovation. It requires companies to work together to address the challenges that arise from this evolution, ensuring that they are capable of creating a safer, more sustainable, and more connected world.

The Jayhawks learned they had received the eighth overall seed in the 64-team tournament and would play Creighton, a team they defeated 6-1 in an exhibition game earlier this year, in the first round. The news got even better when it was announced that Kansas would host the first three rounds of the tournament. 100 "Hosting is a big advantage," said senior goalkeeper Meghan Miller. "Anytime you can play in front of your home fans, it's amazing." The Jayhawk Soccer Complex will host two games Friday, with Nebraska and Oral Roberts playing in the other match-up. Nebraska defeats. MILLER Kansas 1-0 in both school's conference opener. same score. If everything falls correctly, Kansas If Kansas advances to the third round, its opponent will be either No. 9 seeded Texas A&M, Texas State, Illinois or Rice.

One player disagreed. could end up with rematches in its first three games, a prospect on which the team had differing views. "It's a lot easier to play a team that you've lost to," senior defender Stacy Leeper said. "We could end up playing Nebraska and then possibly Illinois. I think we'll have the advantage." Members of this team aren't afraid of the Tar Heels, though, and said they would love to play the defending champions. The only favor the selection committee didn't grant to Kansas was placing the tournament's No.1 seed, North Carolina, in the same region. The Tar Heels are undefeated for the season at 17-0-2 and have won the title 17 times. In last year's championship game, North Carolina defeated Connecticut 6-0, to finish with a perfect 27-0 record. "We'd like to play UNC on the top of the bracket," said Leeper. "I had a feeling in class today we would end up with them. Hopefully, we can pull the upset." If Kansas wants to achieve that goal, its full attention must first be turned to Fridav's game against Creighton. Playing North Carolina would mean that Kansas makes the Elite Eight, which would be the deepest the team has advanced in the tournament in school history. "You can't say anything about anyone past Creighton," said Francis. "If we don't beat them, our season is over." Edited by Johanna M.

ΓΦΒ Ginnv Weatherman/KANSAN The trees on campus are not dropping the colorful leaves this year that they have in years past. The leaves in front of Gamna Phi Beta are mostly falling brown. Stormy fall weather stunts yearly change in leaf coloration This year's fall season didn't measure up to Martin's prediction that the wet summer would form a brilliant display of unusually bright leaves. Martin said the summer rain made the trees lush and healthy, but the unusually heavy rain and cloud cover in September and October lowered the production of bright leaves and caused the leaves to fall prematurely. "It's been a gorgeous fall. Don't get me wrong. I think the reds were not quite as spectacular, and it's because we've been having all this rain," Martin said.

Cloudiness reduced the sunlight necessary for the leaves to photosynthesize, which produces sugar. The longer sugar photosynthesizes in the leaves, the brighter they will be. bigger than will be Stephen Timme, Pittsburg State University professor of botany, said the heavy rain had also shortened the time that the leaves remained attached to the tree branches. He said the wind that often accompanied storms prematurely caused leaves to fall easily this year. BY NATE KARLIN editor@kansan.com SPECIAL TO THE KANSAN KU biology professor Craig Martin walks a mile and a half every day from his home to campus because he especially enjoys the fall season, when the brilliant red maple tree leaves blaze against the morning blue sky. Martin said the premature detachment provided the trees with fewer nutrients. Brutality charges don't surface For example, a leaf that falls prematurely because the weather forced it to fall poses the risk that it will not resist the wind and stay on the ground decomposing next to the tree long enough for the roots to absorb the leaf's nutrients.

He said those ethics were found in his six pillars of character: trust-worthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship. When asked whether parents should have the right to believe the University would put forth its best efforts to make their children better people. Hemenway said it was definitely a fair expectation. Josephson asked Bill Docking, Regents member, what the University should be doing to increase the likelihood of implementing his six pillars. "The University of Kansas is doing a first-rate job in this area," Docking said.

"Ethical behavior is not an accident," Haines, CEO of Westar Energy, said. "It requires vigilance." Haines spoke to about 600 people last night at the eighth annual Anderson Chandler Lecture at the Lied Center, which was sponsored by the School of Business. He said ethical behavior should be pursued in its own right, not because it may produce better economic gains in the long run. Westar CEO Jim Haines took over the company in December 2002. He spoke yesterday at the Lied Center about his experience with business ethics. "If we pursue ethical behavior out of a calculated belief that it will produce good results in the long term, what will we do when it doesn't?" he asked. Haines framed ethics simply: Be ethical or "it would be a jungle out there." He's not the only one who thinks so. "If you don't have a personal code of ethics, you get lost," said Joseph Reitz, professor of business and co-director of the International Center for Ethics in Business. He said Westar was troubled before Haines' arrival and that leaders of the company advanced the interest of the executives more than the shareholders. [Image of a man in a suit sitting at a desk with his hands clasped.] In November 2002, Westar's CEO, David Wittig, was indicted on charges of money laundering and federal fraud and resigned. At the time of his resignation, Westar was $3.6 billion in debt. Haines took over the position in December 2002 and has since reduced the company's debt by almost half, according to a Business School press release. People like Haines can help others understand the importance of ethical behavior, Reitz said. "He can paint a picture for us that will help us understand how a good company, like Westar was, can go wrong," he said. Haines helped illuminate part of that problem by outlining 10 forces that could lead people down the path to unethical behavior. Those ranged from businesses' necessity to act without complete information to the nature of shareholder ownership. al codes of ethical conduct, Reitz said, to prevent future problems in companies such as Enron. The nature of shareholder relationships with companies can also tempt executives to behave unethical, Haines said. ly business," he said. "The most important point he made was that it's hard to make a guideline for every situation." The first, he said, is a simple fact of business: Executives often have to make a quick decision without all the best information available, and that can lead to poor ethical decision-making. Haines stressed that good corporate governance, business ethics and individual responsibility can check those influences to act unethically. A.J. Van Slyke, St. Louis senior, attended the lecture for a business class. It's not just that there were a few bad people." Reitz said. "There were a lot of good people that did nothing."

STATE Painter, crop artist and landscape muralist Stan Herd has an international reputation for doing art for peace's sake. In recent years, he threaded the needle between the warring governments of the United States and Cuba to create renowned landscapes in Havana But when Herd unveiled a proposal for a 26-foot-tall steel sculpture of an American bison that would span a bridge in the capital city, the negative comments came like a stamping herd of buffalo. Richard Tremblay was one of many residents who voiced an opinion. thing out of a horror movie," he said. "To me, it looked like some- Herd, along with famed Kansas art promoter and national television journalist Bill Kurtis, said everyone needed to take a deep breath. "Whether it's my sculpture or not over the archway, the idea of the money being used to significantly enhance the look of our state capital should be pretty roundly accepted," Herd said. His rendering of the sculpture was simply an early draft that was part of a grant application If the grant is approved by the Kansas Department of Transportation, Herd said, there would be many opportunities for residents to say what the project should look like. The buffalo sculpture is part of a proposed four-block-long public works effort that would include landscaping with native grasses and art works along Interstate 70 as it winds beside downtown Topeka. 1 - The Associated Press Protesters arrested Saturday have not filed complaints BY AMANDA O'TOLE aotoole@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Dave Strano, 23-year-old Lawrence resident who was arrested, said he was not sure what point the police department was trying to convey with the arrests. A protest march was broken up on Ninth Street after protesters continued to walk in the street after officers had repeatedly asked them to walk on the sidewalk, Ward said. Three KU students and a KU housing maintenance employee were among those arrested. Lawrence police have received no formal complaints about the behavior of officers during a nine-person arrest on Saturday, Sgt. Dan Ward said yesterday. Officers were not trying to make a point but were attempting to keep the marchers safe by trying to get them to continue on the sidewalk, Ward said. Ward said there was an ordinance in place that prohibited pedestrians walking in the streets. The ordinance was created to protect people and to maintain a steady flow of traffic. Officers were concerned that the march would disrupt the heavy traffic caused by the football game and protesters would be put in danger as the group neared Kentucky Street, Ward said. One individual was chased after he ran from officers, Ward said. "Most of the people who were arrested were compliant," he said. Claven Snow, 25-year-old Lawrence resident, said he still had bruises on his wrists from handcuffs and that he was on Strano said he decided not to press charges against the police department because it would take attention from the focus of the situation in Fallujah, Iraq, which the protesters were marching against. the sidewalk when he was arrested. Snow said he was not sure whether he would file a formal complaint because he was not sure it would do any good. Some members of the group said the police were rough when they arrested fellow protesters. Eli Stogsdill, Lawrence junior, said he saw other marchers get "slammed against police cars." Strano said the officer who arrested him kicked him in the groin several times. Ward said he hadn't heard that anyone was injured in the arrest. Sarah Taylor, 2004 KU graduate and protester, was quoted in yesterday's University Daily Kansas as saying police may have been a little rough but not violent with people they arrested. Strano said he decided not to press charges against the police department because it would take attention from the focus of the situation in Fallujah, Iraq, which the protesters were marching against. "My goal is not to punish the police for what they did," he said. "Rather, I'd like to focus on Fallujah." Edited by Johanna M.

Bush last week, perhaps we should consider the biggest loser to be the demographic that was supposed to turn the election on its head: us. While the number of young people a catch-all term for those under the age of 30 did rise in this election,it wasn't by the numbers that some had hoped. Though there was a raw numerical increase in youth turnout, our proportion of the electorate didn't rise at all. Yes, the number of voters from other age groups did go up as well. This election saw the largest turnout in 40 years. But the failure by this generation to show up as predicted and expected will further insure the marginalization of young voters and their concerns in the various levels of government, both federal and state. The most predictable part of any election is the inevitable letdown afterwards. It's understandable, considering just how much time and energy has been spent on these races by significant portions of the population. But tomorrow morning senior citizens will still be writing letters to their representatives about their Medicare and Social Security, and middle class families will still be anxious about the economy and education. Politicians know this, and thus those segments of the electorate will still get their attention. Will this generation continue to be engaged in politics and democracy during the next few years as they were during the past year and so prevent the perpetual cycle of disengagement on the part of young people and their representatives alike? We want to hope so, but given the attitude of many young people even before the election, there is much reason to doubt their willingness to partake in the democratic process again — at least until they're 60. The catalyst of a record youth turnout was supposed to be the celebrity movement. MTV's "Rock the Vote" and P. Diddy's "Vote or Die" campaigns were just a few of the attempts to raise the political consciousness of young people. They were admirable in some ways, but we'll soon find out if perhaps this route to participatory attitudes was a hindrance to young people's connection to democracy rather than a boon. Even the concerted attempts to raise issues during the Democratic primaries served to underline the attention and focus that these movements and celebrity endorsements placed on this one presidential election. It was presented as the most important, crucial, momentous choice we could face in decades. In other words, they hyped it up. But does a democracy that needs hype have a chance when the choices are not as sexy but still fundamentally vital to the Republic? And where was the attention for Congressional races? Why was there not a distinct celebrity voice saying, "Learn about your local candidates"? Voting has become a marketing trend that comes around in four year cycles. But our democracy needs to be more than that. Will there be "Vote or Die" T-shirts seemingly everywhere in the run-up to the 2006 midterm elections when control of Congress will again be contested? Probably not. Only the issues will consistently bring people to the polls. Despite the best efforts of MTV and the celebrities, voting is not "hip," nor was it ever supposed to be. But without our generation demanding issues and solutions, the large turnout last week will be a one-time blip. It's up to us now, and we can't afford to fall behind.

BUSHZilla! Ralph Steadman & Juan Stinson © 2009 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Ralph Steadman and Zach Stinson/KANSAN Conservative agenda not done deal It's all over. Voters turned out in record numbers for what pollster John Zogby has dubbed "the armageddon election." Of course, the world has not ended, but we're still left to deal with some unpleasant fallout. Republicans are acting giddy, and some have displayed a kind of braggadocio usually reserved for the latest Jay-Z album. My fellow Democrats, however, have good reason to feel upset that vast amounts of America are more worried about gay people getting hitched than the mess in Iraq or the sluggish economic recovery. Some have been acting especially depressed, and some are half-seriously threatening to move out of the country. GUEST COMMENTARY All I can say is that everyone needs to seriously calm down. If recent history is any guide, both camps might be overreacting to the Bush victory. Take a look back at the last three times the United States decided to re-elect the president. There were big victories by Richard Nixon in 1972, Ronald Reagan in 1984 and Bill Clinton in 1996. Note that all three of those were by significantly larger margins than Bush won by last Tuesday. All of them were considered to have powerful legislative mandates from the populace. All of them fared poorly in their second terms. GOES 1 Nixon had Watergate. Reagan's legacy was tarnished by Iran-Contra. Of course, in the case of Clinton, the name Monica Lewinsky ought to ring a few bells. Will Bush get hurt by a similar JACK HENRY-RHOADS opinion@kansan.com scandal that refuses to go away? It is hard to say for certain. Undoubtedly, the hubris requirement for this kind of scandal is fulfilled. But even if he is not hit with a major scandal, he is still in an unenviable position. Now he has to own up to the mess in Iraq and the enormous deficit. These are huge problems, and if Bush doesn't turn them around soon, he'll be in a world of pain come 2006 when Congress holds midterm elections. If he couldn't get these right the first time around, then what does that tell us about his chances to do so in the second term? Also, he has declared that one of the first issues he will tackle is going to be social security. Someone should tell him that social security is called the third rail of American politics for good reason: If you touch it, you will get fried. It is such a tough issue that a whole week's worth of columns couldn't describe all the potential political pitfalls inherent in any attempt at reform. A big loss on this issue for Bush is likely, and it could begin a long, downhill slide in his poll ratings. Finally, he faces a tough situation in his chance to appoint a member of the Supreme Court. He'll have to try to find a way to please both conservatives and moderates. That is no easy task. Ronald Reagan saw his political capital dwindle in 1987 when it took him three attempts to get someone on the bench. Moderate Republican Arlen Specter has already warned Bush that he will help Democrats block a conservative appointee. This is going to be a defining battle of this term, and Bush is going to lose no matter which way it goes. In fact, walking the tight rope between being a moderate and being a conservative will be key for Bush. The post-election Gallup poll shows that only 50 percent of Americans want him to advance the Republican agenda, while 63 percent prefer a bipartisan approach. That is hardly a convincing mandate for the kind of conservative policies he has followed to date, and that his right wing base will expect in the second term. I have a hard time thinking Bush will suddenly run back to the great American middle in any substantive sense. But remember, 63 percent is an awfully big number, and it is the kind of number that could start spelling disaster for the conservative wing of the Republican party in 2006 and 2008. Henry-Rhoads is an Independence, Mo., junior in economics and political science. He is a member of the Kansan editorial board. Column shows left-wing's misguided resentment Stephanie Lovett's column, "Democrats must endure, prevail," included one key sentence that says a lot about the left wing of the Democratic Party. Lovett said, "The Democratic Party is still going to be united against Bush and we have articulated a clear vision for this country." Right now, the United States is working to secure peace in Afghanistan and Iraq. Afghanistan has had its first election ever, and Iraq will have an election in January. We are waging a global war against terrorism. Even considering all this, extreme Democrats like Lovett are calling for unity against the President of the United States. when Sen. John Kerry gave his concession speech on Nov. 3, he graciously asked his supporters to unite behind President Bush so this country could move on and work towards our greater goals. For all the divisiveness of this election, Kerry still understands the importance of unity. This country should not be comprised of two factions — Democrats and Republicans at war with each other and "united against" each other. This country should be one LETTERS TO THE EDITOR nation, united against our enemies abroad and determined to make things better at home. Whether leftists believe it, President Bush has the same goal they do: Making America a better place. Bush just has different ideas about how to get there. But now that the nation has spoken and Bush will be in the White House until January 2009. It is time to unite behind him, not against him. I believe that most Democrats don't think I love you. I believe and hope I believe that most Democrats think like Lovett. I believe — and hope — that most Democrats, whether or not they like Bush, respect him and this country enough to stand behind him and hope that he can make this nation better. I believe that most Democrats aren't itching to fight him, unite against him and hope that he stumbles. That is petty anger, not patriotism. π The reason Republicans won the White House and increased their majority in Congress is that a good portion of the Democratic Party can't identify the real enemy, Republicans are at war against terrorism, while radical Democrats appear to be at war against Republicans. Moderate Democrats should be angry that the misguided wrath of extremists gave the Democratic Party a bad image and cost them this election.

General or at Senate race remains tight THE ASSOCIATED PRESS IDELINES est columns that TOPEKA — In the state's closest Senate election, the Democratic challenger's margin of victory over the Republican incumbent widened yesterday. one number A review of previously uncounted ballots in Shawnee County left Democrat Laura Kelly 100 votes ahead of Republican Dave Jackson, out of more than 50,000 ballots cast in their Topeka-area district. The first final, unofficial results from last week's election had Kelly winning by only 39 votes. Jackson had until today to ask the secretary of state's office for a recount. The district covers northern Shawnee County, including parts of north and central Topeka, and Wabaunsee County. Most ballots reviewed yesterday by the Shawnee County Commission were provisional ones, cast when poll workers don't know whether someone is eligible to vote in a particular precinct. The Wabaunsee County Commission did a similar review Friday. If the result holds, the GOP would maintain its 30-10 majority in the Senate, rather than picking up a seat. On election night, the tally was 15,046 votes for Kelly and 15,007 for Jackson. After yesterday's review, the tally was 15,383 for Kelly and 15,283 for Jackson. ETHICIST: Speaker's 'in-your-face' style effective CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A University an "A" grade for character development. The majority of audience members, however, gave "B's" and "C's". After recurring positive self-reflection from the panelists, Josephson began to repeat his question a little more strongly. Reggie Robinson, president and chief executive officer of the Regents, offered the first attack on Josephson's pillars. "Pillars are important, but those can bleed into personal values." Robinson said. In order for the University to implement pillars of character, it requires a real clarity of the characters, he said. Robinson hinted that the University would not want to impose personal values on all of its students. Josephson eventually made his way to Bill Self, who provided most of the remaining discussion. "Are we ethical? I think we kind of are — kind of," Self said. PANELISTS The University does a great job of instilling ethical character into its students, but it is never enough, Self said. We owe it to our students to expose them to different situations so they will be prepared when they leave college, he said.

Because of their celebrity status, they often face the temptation to have extra help in academics from people wanting to be associated with them. academics away from the University, though, because people change and athletes sometimes gain a respect for education the longer they stay. Self said. it would be wrong to keep athletes not fully interested in Ally Levy, Dallas senior, attended the event last night and said she thought Josephson's in-your-face method was effective in getting honest responses from the panelists. "They weren't expecting to be grilled to death," Levy said. "It made them think on the spot." Nathan Vernon, Houston senior, said he enjoyed hearing non-scripted responses from the panelists. He also said he thought Josephson came off as a bit of a know-it-all, but it made the evening interesting. The Lawrence JournalWorld, Sunflower Broadband and World Online sponsored Josephson's trip to the University, where he gave a speech titled "The University's Role in Creating and Maintaining a More Ethical Society" before leading the discussion with panelists.

France — Palestinian leaders rushed to Paris yesterday to check on the critically ill Yasser Arafat, but hospital officials said visiting rights were restricted — setting the stage for a dramatic showdown between the delegation and Arafat's wife. Early yesterday, Suha Arafat accused the leadership — including top lieutenants Ahmed Qureia and Mahmoud Abbas — of coming to the French capital with the sole intention of usurping her husband's role as head of the Palestinian Authority. "I tell you they are trying to bury Abu Ammar alive," she shouted, using Arafat's nom de guerre, in a furious telephone call with Al-Jazeera television from the 75-year-old Arafat's bedside in a hospital southwest of Paris. "He is all right, and he is going home," she insisted. Tayeb Abdel Rahim, a senior Arafat aide, called a news conference in the West Bank to dispute the claims. "What came from Mrs. Arafat doesn't represent our people," he said, accusing her of wanting "to be the lose decision maker." And Palestinian Cabinet minister Salah Taumri said, "We are Yasser Arafat's family. We knew Yasser Arafat even before Mrs. Suha Arafat was born. We care for Yasser Arafat and one has the right to deny the truth from the Palestinian people." The Palestinian leadership abruptly called off the Paris trip, then reversed its decision. Qureia, the Palestinian prime minister, and Abbaas, a former prime minister and the current PLO deputy chairman, landed in France late vesterday on a private jet. The prospect of their being barred from Arafat's hospital bedside was bound to inflame an increasingly tense power struggle. suha Arafat, his wife of 15 years and mother of his daughter, seems to have aligned herself with hardliners who apparently seek to take over the Palestinian leadership in a post-Arafat era, though some Palestinian officials said her motives are more financial. According to a senior official in Arafat's office, she has received monthly payments of $100,000 from Palestinian coffers and is widely believed to have control of vast funds collected by the PLO. This year, French prosecutors launched a money-laundering probe into transfers of $11.4 million into her accounts. She has refused to talk to reporters about Palestinian finances. COLORS; Nature's fall display not so spectacular CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A He said this transfer of nutrients nitrogen, potassium and phosphorous — from the leaves to the roots was the main benefit of the entire process. Nonetheless, the changing colors attract the human eye and attention. Shorter days and cooler temperatures trigger the leaves to change their colors. Martin said some trees focused on one change more than the other, but usually combined the two conditions. For example, change in temperature does not affect some trees that do not produce red pigment. Hormonal changes then occur within the leaves, which trigger the pigment to change. As Lyndsay Rush watched high school kids take a campus tour a few days ago, the "One of my favorite memories of KU in the fall is all the orange and I just don't feel like I saw as much or barely any this fall," she said. "Walking on campus, I usually stop and go, 'Oh my gosh, it's so pretty because of all the orange.' Not this year." Plymouth, Minn., senior wondered if they were disappointed by the faded fall season. She said she remembered the campus's prettiness during her freshman year. Martin said sunny, warm days followed by cool nights will produce the best red pigment. Sunny, warm days produce the best photosynthesis and cool nights allow the Besides dazzling passers-by, the leaves produce sugar that provide necessary nutrients to the tree to survive the winter season. leaves to trap more sugar. More photosynthesis results in more sugar, which results in more red pigment, which then results in red leaves. Although the peak color-changing season passed, Martin said students could still watch some late-turning plants change colors, such as sweet gum and the non-Midwest native burning bush. He also mentioned the unique beauty of prairie grasses native to the Midwest, which turned deep shades of gold, copper, pink and yellow late in the season. "You don't get that in New England or California," Martin said. "It's kind of special that most people aren't aware of that and really should take a drive out and have a look." — Edited by Steve Vockrodt COLLEGE IS TOUGH. COMMERCE IS EASY.

Iran's foreign minister also indicated the preliminary agreement negotiated with France, Germany and Britain could be signed soon, but Iranian hardliners criticized the deal and urged the government to ignore calls to continue the suspension "The trend of negotiations was a positive trend." Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi told Iranian state-run television yesterday. "We hope the deal between Iran and Europeans can be finalized and create the necessary confidence." Outlining for the first time the contours of a confidential agreement hammered out over the weekend, the diplomats told The Associated Press on condition of "The trend of negotiations was a Kamal Kharrazi Foreign Minister positive trend. We hope the deal between Iran and Europeans can be finalized and create the necessary confidence." anonymity that the deal still could collapse because of resistance to cooperation with the Europeans by conservative leaders in the Islamic Republic. ers in the laboratory Iran suspended uranium enrichment last year but has repeatedly and at high levels refused to stop other related activities such as reprocessing uranium or building centrifuges, insisting its program is intended purely for the production of fuel for nuclear power generation. "We came very close to agreement but we still need to hear the final word" from Iran, said Cristina Gallach of a conversation Sunday, a spokeswoman for Javier Solana, the European Union's foreign policy chief. One of the diplomats, who was briefed on the substance of the weekend talks in Paris, agreed, saying "We think it will be a yes — the noises are positive but we are not sure." Any such deal would be significant because it would commit Iran not only to continue its voluntary freeze on enriching uranium — which can be used to make nuclear weapons — but also to stop related activities. Uranium enriched to a low level can be used to produce nuclear fuel for reactors to generate electricity. If enriched further it can be used to make nuclear weapons. The International Atomic Energy Agency unanimously passed a resolution in September demanding Iran freeze all work on uranium enrichment and related activities, and the U.N. nuclear watchdog is to judge Iran's compliance at a Nov. 25 meeting. But Tehran has defied the agency by continuing to build centrifuges, which are used in the enrichment process and uranium reprocessing, and by converting a few tons of raw uranium into hexafluoride gas — a stage before enrichment. In a provision sure to be opposed by the United States, the weekend deal would only commit Iran to suspending its work until it reaches agreement with the European Union that would give it economic and technological assistance, including help in building a peaceful nuclear industry, the diplomats said. Washington wants a guarantee of indefinite suspension if not an outright scrapping of Iran's enrichment plans and says Iran should be referred to the U.N. Security Council to face possible sanctions if it does not. If Iran accepts the deal, U.S. hopes of building consensus on referring the case to the 15-nation Security Council at the IAEA's 35-nation board meeting are unlikely. One of the diplomats acknowledged approval of the deal by the Iranians could lead to tensions between the Europeans and Washington. "If we solve a problem with the Iranians we hope there will not be a problem with the Americans," the diplomat said. But hard-liners in Tehran called on the government to ignore demands it suspend nuclear activities. "Despite the fact that the Europeans cannot be trusted has been proven to all, unfortunately these people have again reached agreement with these three traitor European countries," the daily Jomhuri-e-Eslami newspaper said on its front page of Iranian negotiators. Mohamed ElBaradei, the head of the Vienna-based IAEA, called the agreement 'a step in the right direction. Speaking on the sidelines of an international conference on nuclear security in Australia, ElBaradei said he hoped the deal would be finalized in "the next few days" and would lead Iran to suspend its nuclear enrichment and reprocessing programs. The U.S. State Department reacted cautiously. Spokesman Richard Boucher said the Europeans had not yet provided Washington with a full readout of the talks, but they agreed that Tehran must fully and immediately suspend all nuclear weapons activities. Repeating the U.S. stance, Boucher said Washington believes if Iran does not comply, its behavior should be referred to the Security Council. Iran is not breaching its Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty obligations by seeking to enrich uranium, but is under strong international pressure to drop such plans as a good faith gesture to prove it is not seeking atomic weapons. Bin Laden's driver to have day in court THE ASSOCIATED PRESS GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba — A U.S. federal court ruled yesterday that Osama bin Laden's driver was entitled to a legal hearing on whether he is a prisoner of war — a landmark opinion that could prevent military trials of alleged enemy combatants held at Guantanamo Bay. The government said it would immediately seek a stay of that ruling and file an appeal. It was the first time a federal court halted legal proceedings before U.S. military commissions, resurrected from World War II, at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base. No trials have been held, although tentative trial dates for four detainees had been scheduled. A U.S. District Court judge in Washington halted the pretrial proceedings of Salim Ahmed Hamdan, 34, of Yemen, after his lawyers filed a petition. Hamdan who is charged with conspiracy to commit war crimes, murder and terrorism and says that he never supported terrorism was to be the first detainee tried, on Dec. 7. The judge rejected the U.S. government's contention that Hamdan and other detainees were not prisoners of war but enemy combatants, a classification affording fewer legal protections under the Geneva Conventions. Hamdan was declared an enemy combatant last month by a review tribunal during a hearing his lawyer was barred from. "Unless and until a competent tribunal determines that petitioner is not entitled to protections afforded prisoners of war under Article 4 of the Geneva "T here is nothing in this record to suggest that a competent tribunal has determined that Hamdan in not a prisoner of war under the Geneva Conventions." Judge James Robertson U.S. District Judge Convention ... of Aug. 12, 1949, he may not be tried by military commission for the offences with which he is charged," U.S. District Judge James Robertson said. "There is nothing in this record to suggest that a competent tribunal has determined that Hamdan is not a prisoner of war under the Geneva Conventions." The court also ruled that unless the military commission guidelines were changed to conform to the Uniform Code of Military Justice, Hamdan could not be tried by the commissions and would be moved from the pre-commission wing at the Camp Delta prison camp to the general population. Four terror suspects set to go before the commissions were moved out of solitary cells recently to a pre-commission wing. Fire in the sky In Washington, U.S. Justice Department spokesman Mark Corallo said the government would appeal the ruling on the grounds that the Geneva Conventions did not apply to members or affiliates of Al Qaeda.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SAN DIEGO KANSAS 3 Tip-off vs. Hays TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 9,2004 Kansan file photo www.kansan.com Henrickson, new women's team to debut .com BY PAUL BRAND pbrand@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER For some teams, an exhibition is seen as nothing more than a scrummage in front of fans, but don't tell that to Kansas senior guard Aquanita Burras. "I think it is going to be a big thing, because we all feel like we're freshmen," Burras said. "This game is going to be a big for us and for the coaches." Although the contest at 7 tonight in Allen Fieldhouse pits Kansas against Division II Fort Hays State, the matchup offers more meaning than a regular exhibition. For coach Bonnie Henrickson, the game marks her first as coach. For her players, it is the first time to execute under a new system. Henrickson said she anticipated that emotions would run high. "These kids are awfully, awfully excited to play," Henrickson said of her squad. "They're very anxious." Through all the eagerness, the Jayhawks' main focus will be on translating the lessons learned from early season practice into a game setting for the first time. Last Friday, the women played their first 40-minute scrimmage against the men's student practice squad, but are looking to the exhibition as a more accurate measurement of the team's development. One main area of focus will be in simple execution on the offensive end, which is a worry of Henrickson's. She said she was concerned about the team's ability to stay in the offense when it needed to be in it. Apprehension over the offense in practice has already hindered the Jayhawks early in the year. In addition to team goals of executing the offense, individual attention will also be in the scope of step-by-step improvement. "My personal focus is concentrating on what I have to do," Burras said. "I need to make sure I know where I'm running the plays to." Guard Blair Waltz dribbles around a San Diego opponent during a game last season.

For the first game, Kansas is looking Two years ago, the Jayhaws took on Fort Hays State and came out with a 73-56 victory. Burras scored 19 points in the exhibition victory. Kansas is 24-8 all-time in exhibition games and has won its last nine by an average margin of over 40 points. "I vaguely remember them from two seasons ago, but everything changes," Burras said. "Hopefully that victory The in-state series has the Jayhawks holding a slim 6-5 lead and a four game winning streak. Edited by Steve Vockrodt Tigers have 'nothing to lose' Team's coach says players are prepared excited for debut BY BJ RAINS brains@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Only five players return from last year's Fort Hays State team, but as the Division II women's basketball team makes its way to Allen Fieldhouse for tonight's exhibition game against Kansas, members say they can finish better than a season ago, when they went 17-11 and lost only three home games all season. "We're gonna be loose and ready to play because we have nothing to lose. The pressure is on Kansas," said Fort Havs coach Annette Wiles. The Fort Hays State roster includes four freshmen, two sophomores, three juniors and two seniors. With all of the youth and inexperience, it has taken some time for everyone to adjust to the college game. "The girls all played a lot over the summer. As far as playing against collegiate level players, we lack some experience," said Wiles. "Our young players, and our junior college transfers have all stepped in nicely to help fill the void." Still, Wiles likes the team's progress and is excited to get the season started. Last season's leading scorer Cassie Cordell left the team in the fall, and her void will be hard to fill. She averaged 16 points and 7.6 rebounds per game. "We are looking forward to getting some game experience. It's an exhibition game. Both teams are using this game to help prepare them for the rest of the season," said Wiles. "As far as us, y "The girls all played a lot over the summer. As far as playing against collegiate level players, we lack some experience. Our young players,and our junior college transfers have all stepped in nicely to help fill the void." Annette Wiles Fort Hays State women's basketball coach we really want to work on our half court man-to-man defense." First year Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson has done some scouting on the Tigers. She is also ready to get the season started. "They are primarily a half court, man primarily a fan court, man to man team. They're about six foot in the post, not much bigger than that. They've got a guard from Lawrence that shoots the ball pretty well," Henrickson said. Tenight's game will not only be the first of the season for both teams, but it will also be the debut of the team under the leadership. under the leadership of coach Bonnie Henrickson. Wiles said she knew some information about some of Kansas' players because she has played against them in previous seasons, but as far the offense that Kansas is going to run, she doesn't know. "I think everyone on their schedule is waiting for this game, to see what they are gonna do." Wiles said. Edited by Johanna M. Maska KU ready to show nation who's boss 4-point victory against Emporia State example of team's potential When I sat down at Allen Fieldhouse for the first exhibition game of the new season for the Kansas men's basketball team on Sunday night, I told my roommate that the Jayhawks would win by 50 points. Anything less than 40 would have been a disappointment to me. Shortly after the contest had started, I predicted a final score of 110-60 Kansas won 115-70, a 45-point margin. That's close; I should think about becoming an odds maker, but my Miss Cleo-like psychic abilities and future careers aside, the 'Hawks put on a clinic against Emporia State. Let's take a look at the facts. Although Emporia State finished 22-7 a year ago, ranked 22nd in the nation, it wasn't exactly the elite competition Kansas would face during the regular season. Many expected the Jayhawks to put up big numbers on Emporia State, but did anyone expect the 'Hawks would look so good doing it? Emporia State got served. The Hornets are a Division II school out of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Granted there were times when the defense was a tad shaky and the Jayhawks' shots didn't fall, but those moments were rare. He dazzled fans with three-pointers, dunks and jumpers. His play was reminiscent of what made him a star a year ago. Sophomore guard J.R. Giddens led all scorers with 22 points off the bench in just 16 minutes of play. Senior forward Wayne Simien added INSIDE THE PARK JACK WEINSTEIN iweinstein@kansan.com VISIT THE PARK The two biggest questions entering this game and maybe this season — who will start alongside Simien and how much depth the freshmen will provide — weren't necessarily answered on Sunday night, but some light was shed on those issues. 17 points on 7-7 shooting and grabbed 10 rebounds. Senior guard Keith Langford finally looked healthy, scoring 15 points, and fellow senior guards Mike Lee and Aaron Miles had 11 points and 12 assists, respectively. He knew his role and performed it perfectly. Moody played good defense and didn't make any mistakes, not committing a single turnover in 14 minutes of play while adding seven points and three rebounds. Junior forward Christian Moody looked good starting with Simien against the Hornets. Robinson provided a spark off the bench as Miles' backup and also played well when he and Miles were both on the court. Robinson was able to score 11 points while dishing out four assists. The freshmen, as a group, were impressive, the most notable being guard Russell Robinson. Darnell Jackson and C.J. Giles The young big men also looked good for the most part in their debut. SEE WEINSTEIN ON PAGE 6B Galindo back Energized but benched. Alex Galindo needs practice before big games BY MIRANDA LENNING mlenning@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER While all of his fellow classmates were making their Allen Fieldhouse debut, Alex Galindo sat on the bench and awaited his opportunity to get in the game. Galindo, who missed three weeks of practice due to a groin pull, practiced last Wednesday for the first time since the Canadian trip. That gave him only a couple of practices before the Javahawks' first game. Coach Bill Self said Galindo had gone through some half-speed drills, but nothing to get him into game shape. That was probably the reason Galindo was on the court for only seven total minutes in Sunday's game against Emporia State University. During those seven minutes, Galindo went 0-4 from behind the three point line. He took two of those shots in the first half, when he was in the game for one minute. Although he didn't seem nervous on the court, his lack of practice time was apparent. He looked wined in the second half and was beaten several times on defense. Sett said Galindo's play in Sunday's game was because he missed so much practice. "I thought Alex struggled a little, but he has really had only two practice days," Self said. "He hasn't had five healthy days since Canada." Last week, Galindo said he had spent some time watching tapes and tried to get a feel for the high-low offense. But he said it's hard to learn an offense on TV. outside of TV. "I have watched some tapes, but it is not quite the same as being in there and actually playing," Galindo said. He said he did light workouts during the last three weeks and worked with the trainers to get him in condition to practice. He said he did a lot of stretching and received daily treatment on the groin. "It feels better. It's not 100 percent, but it's better. I just have to go out and do my best in practice." Alex Galindo Freshman forward He still has a ways to come, but he said he was just glad to be back on the court. "It feels better. It's not 100 percent, but it's better." Galindo said. "I just have to go out and do my best in practice." Self has reiterated that he would divvy up playing time to the younger players according to how they practiced in the days before games. Galindo's seven minutes during Sunday's game was well under the 16.3 minutes per game he averaged during the Canadian trip. Galindo averaged more than 10 points a game in the four games he played in Canada, including 16 points against Langara College. He has proved to be a threat from the outside and isn't afraid to shoot behind the three-point are. He had more success from behind the arc in Canada than anyone else on the team, making eight of 17 three-point shots. If he gets a couple more weeks of practice under his belt, and gets in better physical shape, he could have an impact on the rotation. Self said after Sunday's game. Edited by Johanna M.

After last week's starter, junior Jason Swanson, went down with an injury that was described as similar to sophomore Adam Barmann's, senior walk-on John Nielsen stepped in. Nielsen has played just twice since transferring to Kansas from Palomar Community College, in California. This week, Swanson is expected to again be unavailable, as will Barmann, the regular starter, necessitating that Nielsen lead the team.

On Saturday, the team was hit with just two penalties for 10 yards. On the Big 12 Teleconference, Mangino said that Barmann's rehab was progressing better than expected. He still doubted, however, that he would be available for any games this season. — Jonathan Kealing Tigers reflect on blown leads during weekend off from play The Tigers don't play this weekend, so they're getting away from the game for a few days. For frustrated and beleaguered Missouri, it's the perfect time for a break. Coach Gary Pinkel said yesterday there was no temptation to work his team, which blew its third double-digit lead of the season in Saturday's 35-24 loss to Kansas State, as a form of punishment. instrument. Missouri's next game is Nov. 20 against Kansas and Pinkel said the Tigers (4-5, 2-4 Big 12) will have plenty of time to prepare. They also need a breather considering the way their season has gone south, returning to practice on Thursday. Wide receiver Thomson Omboga said he saw dread in teammates' eyes as the lead evaporated, but Pinkel didn't know about that. He said it boiled down to making plays. Earlier in the year they squandered a 14-0 lead against Troy State and a 17-0 advantage against Oklahoma State. "We played a very,very good first half and in the second half we didn't play as well," Pinkel said. "The moral of the story is play better." "If you have players who don't care, then you have to take a different stance," Pinkel said on the Big 12 coaches' teleconference. "I just don't feel that way. I don't think that's the right thing to do. "We played a bunch of close games against good teams and came up short. We're going to fight through it." L The Associated Press ALEXANDRA E.

After Langford's performance against Emporia State Sunday, Self was relieved to find out that he in fact had nothing to worry about at all. IES Langford scored 15 points on 7 of 10 shooting, showing no ill effects from the injury that kept him out of the final game in Canada. In just 16 minutes of play, the 6-foot-4 guard showed flashes of what has made him a preseason All-Big 12 First Team selection. Langford displayed his quickness off the dribble and good leaping ability, both of which Kansas fans and coaches have come to appreciate from the Fort Worth, Texas, native. and m to Self said he could see a change in Langford in the practices leading up to the first game. "The last two or three days you could see a different Keith," Self said. "He's feeling better now, and he's testing his knee." Langford played with the injury at the end of last season, receiving surgery after Kansas' loss in the Elite Eight to Georgia Tech. The guard has never fully recovered from the injury until now going through weeks of rehabilitation before the season began. 2 Self said Langford has also had to deal with the injury from a psychological aspect, relearning to trust that he will not get injured again. "Sometimes when you have a surgery, even though structurally you're fine, mentally every time you get a bump you're nervous about being hurt," Self said. "I think he's working through all that." Langford was part of an overall impressive shooting night for the lavihawks. Kansas made an astounding 46 of 73 shots from the floor for 63 percent and also connected on 7 of 11 three-point attempts for 64 percent. This included a pair of threes from senior forward Wayne Simien, who has been working on his range in the offseason, and one from junior forward Christian Moody. "We shot well tonight," Langford said, "but we're not going to go too crazy after one game." self said this year's squad had the potential to be a better shooting team, partly because of the addition of shooters such as freshman guards Alex Galindo and Russell Robinson and partly because of better execution in offensive sets. "I think the key to us shooting it better will be if we share the ball like we did tonight." Self said after Sunday's game. "We had a lot of guys making the extra pass. Shots become easier when you're wide open." Edited by Johanna M.

Langford scored 15 points in 20 minutes against the Hornets. 5 25 14 KU players less likely to bolt to NBA BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealeng@kansan.com KANSAN SWITSPORTER They just don't want to leave. Paul Pierce left after his junior year in 1998 and Drew Gooden left after his junior year in 2002. Seniors Wayne Simien, Keith Langford, Mike Lee and Aaron Miles hope to end their college careers by cutting down the nets in St. Louis in April. They just don't want to leave. Since Danny Manning spent four full seasons at the Kansas playing basketball, just two players have left the program before finishing their eligibility, Chris Theisen, assistant athletics director for media relations, said. That's two out of about 70 scholarship players who have come to Kansas since Manning's 1984 class. Among those seniors who probably could have left, but chose not to, are Jacque Vaughn, Raef LaFrentz, Nick Collison and the current Big 12 Preseason Player of the Year, Wayne Simien. "Kansas has been spoiled in that way," coach Bill Self said. Trying to determine why they stay a somewhat difficult task. Theories differ widely and include the idea that Kansas is just so magical — that one comes mostly from fans — to the way that Kansas coaches recruit Regardless of why, Kansas seems to be an anomaly in the current NCAA basketball world. players — that one comes mostly from players. "You've got lottery picks that stayed all four years," Self said. "That doesn't happen very often." Consider this: In last year's draft, of the top ten players drafted, just three had completed their college eligibility. Of the remaining three, two were out of high school, including the No.1 overall, one played a year in college, one had two years in college and three had three years of college play. "We're very fortunate to have these four guys," Seif said. "But in my personal opinion I think it's wise that they stayed." Simien was considered the most likely candidate back, but also returning were seniors Aaron Miles, Mike Lee and Keith Langford. Sophomore J.R. Giddens was also widely viewed as a possible NBA draft pick, but he chose to return. Simien had no second thoughts about his decision. much consideration of making that jump," he said. "Definitely glad that I returned. There really wasn't too For Simien, the decision to stick around wasn't so much about improving his draft stock, but more about how much he loved being a lashawk. "I feel that the relationships I've built over the last three, going on four years, and the great atmosphere, as far as being on campus, and the love and respect our program gets year-in and year-out is hard to leave," Simien said. Langford said he believed the way his coaches went about recruiting had a lot to do with why so many Kansas players stay. "When Coach recruited us, he didn't talk about preparing us for the NBA," Langford said. Instead, both former coach Roy Williams and Self focused on creating a top-notch player. "Coach said that only two guys have left early. I think we've shown that guys can stick around and graduate and be successful." Simien said. - Edited by Steve Vockrodt kansan.com The student newspaper of the University of Kansas Front Page News Sports Arts Opinion Extra the student perspective NewsNewsNewsNews THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS DEPARTMENT OF THEATRE & FILM UNIVERSITY THEATRE PRESENTS Romeo & Juliet kansan.com The student newspaper of the University of Kansas THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS DEPARTMENT OF THEATRE & FILM UNIVERSITY THEATRE PRESENTS William This production is an Associate Entry in the 2005 Kennedy Center/American College Theatre Festival.

The undefeated Utes slipped one spot to seventh in the BCS standings yesterday, a drop that could cost them a berth in one of the four big-money bowl games. The top five in the BCS stayed the same with Southern California, Oklahoma and Auburn leading the way, followed by California and Wisconsin. Utah is trying to become the first team from a non-BCS conference (Mountain West) to play in a BCS game. The Utes can guarantee a spot in what probably would be the Fiesta Bowl — which delivers a payout of about $14 million — by finishing in the top six. A top-12 finish makes the Utes eligible for consideration, but guarantees nothing. The top two teams in the final standings will play in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 4 for the BCS national title. Texas jumped over Utah this week into sixth place. just like two weeks ago when Utah moved up to sixth, Utes coach Urban Meyer found out from his wife that the team had dropped. "She had a little reaction. I won't use the language she did," he said. "In three weeks we'll have a reaction. There's too "She had a little reaction won't use the language she did. In three weeks we'll have a reaction. There's too much football to be played yet." Urban Meyer Utah coach much football to be played yet." much football to be played yet. Meyer tried to be diplomatic, but asked if the BCS system should be changed, he said. "... Is the sky blue? Absolutely. And it will happen. Logical thinking will eventually take over." Texas '56-35 comeback victory over Oklahoma State on Saturday boosted its BCS grade to .7904. The Utes aren't getting enough bounce in the polls and computer rankings out of their lopsided victories over conference opponents. Their grade (.7511) went up slightly after a 63-31 victory over Colorado State. Utah maintained its positions in both The Associated Press Top 25 (seventh) and coaches poll (eighth) this week, but the Utes dropped in the computer rankings from sixth to eighth, while the Longhorns moved up to No. 5 in that category. Utah finishes its season with games at Wyoming on Saturday and at home against BYU the next week. Two victories would ensure a second straight MWC title. The league champ gets a Liberty Bowl berth, which pays $1.35 million. But how the races play out in the Big 12, Pac-10, Southeastern Conference and Big Ten will have as much to do with where the Utes play in the postseason as their own games. And with Georgia and Michigan right behind Utah, the Utes may be in danger of getting caught again. The AP media poll and ESPN/USA Today poll each account for one-third of a team's BCS grade. A compilation of six computer rankings make up the other third. Despite being one of the winningest teams in the country in recent years, the Longhorns have never reached the BCS, which was created in 1998 and includes the Sugar, Rose, Orange and Fiesta bowls. Texas is ahead of Utah in both polls, sixth in the AP and seventh in the coaches. Last season Texas was in line to grab one of the BCS's two atlarge bids when Kansas State knocked off Oklahoma in the Big 12 championship game. That gave the Wildcats the automatic berth as league champ and made the Sooners an at-large team playing for the national title. For Texas, it was back to the Holiday Bowl for the third time since 2000. Recent disappointments tempered yesterday's good news in Austin. Utah is one of six undefeated teams in Division I-A, along with USC, Oklahoma, Auburn, Wisconsin and Boise State.

Khadavi and Millstein were among other ultimate Frisbee enthusiasts who come out every Sunday to beef up their skills. Networks, NFL agree to extension THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — The NFL agreed yesterday to $8 billion in contract extensions with Fox and CBS to televise Sunday afternoon games for six more years, deals that would also allow the league to show better matchups late in the season in prime time. billion, including the Sunday night (on ESPN) and Monday night (on ABC) packages. The extensions will run through 2011 and represent a 25 percent increase in rights fees. The current eight-year contract, which expires after the 2005 season, was worth $17.6 The league still is in talks for the prime-time packages. The exclusive negotiating period for ABC/ESPN extends for nearly another year. Monday night to feature more attractive matchups, according to an official within the league who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. The deals give the NFL the option to move seven late-season games from Sunday to The NFL also can develop late-season prime-time satellite or cable packages of eight games, which would be televised on Thursdays and Saturdays. Or the league could take those eight games and show them regionally in prime-time telecasts on Sundays and Mondays. Holmes' status uncertain for Sunday's game THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — NFL rushing and scoring leader Priest Holmes has strained right knee ligaments and his status is unclear, Kansas City coach Dick Vermeil said yesterday. Holmes, on pace to erase the NFL touchdown record he set in 2003, left Sunday's game against Tampa Bay with about four minutes left in the third quarter. The injury was first said to be a knee contusion. "Priest has a strained MCL. The extent of the strain will only be known after a period of days," Vermeil said. "We'll go ahead and prepare as if he's not going to be there," Vermeil said, adding that Holmes will be evaluated each day and was "a little better" yesterday. KC Holmes, 31, leads the NFL with 892 yards rushing and 90 points despite being dogged much of the season with nagging injuries. He underwent hip surgery following the 2002 season and bounced back, scoring a leaguerecord 27 touchdowns in 2003. He scored his 14th touchdown of this season in Kansas City's 34-31 defeat to Tampa Bay before leaving after a 13-yard run around left end. Vermeil, pressed on how long his three-time Pro Bowl running back might be out, threw up his hands. "I can't make that determination right now. Nor can the doctors. Nor can Priest right now," he said. "Of course, Priest is always optimistic. And he surprises us all the time by doing what he does and how he does it. "We'll just play it by ear." The news about linebacker Shawn Barber's knee injury was worse. Vermeil said Barber could possible be out the rest of the year. He'll be examined this week by a specialist in Birmingham, Ala., Vermeil said. "We'll know more later," Vermeil said, adding that it was "very possible" the seven-year veteran would not return this season. The Chiefs (3-5) are hopeful of getting backup running back Derrick Blaylock on the practice field this week as they prepare for Sunday's game at New Orleans. Blaylock, who was out last week with a thigh bruise, scored four rushing touchdowns against Atlanta on Oct. 24 as he and Holmes combined to score an NFL-record eight touchdowns. Former No. 1 draft pick Larry Johnson, who has publicly lobbied for more playing time, had 21 yards on 10 carries in relief of Holmes against Tampa Bay. He also had four catches for 38 yards. But he failed twice on short goal line runs, where Holmes the past three years has been almost unstoppable. WEINSTEIN: Jayhawks play in midseason form in exhibition CONTINUED FROM 1B combined for 12 points, 13 rebounds and five blocked shots in 30 minutes. They appeared to be a good combination to give Simien a break. Sasha Kaun, on the other hand, wasn't as impressive. I know he hasn't been playing basketball all that long, and he is a very raw talent, but the only improvement I saw in his game from the preseason team scrimmage to Sunday night was the size of his biceps. It looks like he's bulked up in the last two months. His game still needs a lot of work. To me, he looked lethargic going for rebounds, and his defense was sluggish. The only time he seemed aggressive was on offense when he called for the ball, even when he wasn't open. The way Kaun played Sunday night, I can't imagine how much of an impact he'll make this season. It's ridiculous to say the 'Hawks played in midseason form the other night. We don't know yet the full extent of what these guys are capable of. Nevertheless, Sunday night the Jayhawks looked scary-good, and the game should serve notice to the rest of the nation that Kansas basketball isn't messing around.

Elisa Zahn, Littleton, Colo., senior, lost about $850 when she acted on one such fraudulent e-mail. On Oct. 31, Zahn received a message from a Commerce Bank Security Department with a subject line, "Secure Confirmation." The e-mail said an unauthorized person was trying to access her account and that she needed to verify her account number and password to make it secure again. The next day, Zahn clicked on the link in the e-mail and entered in her account number, PIN number and password. The link and the Web site seemed legitimate, Zahn said. When checking her account balance online to pay rent later in the week, Zahn discovered her balance was negative $400. She browsed her account history and saw two withdrawals of $500 and $200 had been made from ATMs in Tallahassee, Fla., on Nov. 2. Combined with three $20 withdrawals and various overdraft fees, Zahn lost about $850. "I just wasn't thinking," she said.

See seating map, page 7A. MIRANDA LENNING mlenning@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRITER Courtney Kublan/KANSAN University officials are looking for a way to appease faculty members who are angry about the new location of their seats in Allen Fieldhouse. Under the new seating plan, most faculty and staff members are consolidated into three sections in Allen Fieldhouse—10,13 and 2. Those sections are located behind portions of the student sections, making it difficult and sometimes impossible for people sitting in those sections to see over standing students. "At Sunday's game, people were really mad because they couldn't see the game," said Jimmy Gentry, professor and former dean of journalism. Athletics director Lew Perkins, associate athletics director Jim Marchiony and student senators met with University Senate Executive Committee yesterday to discuss the faculty's concerns. Marchiony said the group decided to give faculty members in obstructed seats the option to move or receive a refund. The new seats will likely be in the upper level of the arena, he said. But not everyone in the sections qualifies for a move or refund. Marchiony said only about 100 seats were obstructed by standing students. Because the students stand for the entire game, mostly on their seats, faculty and staff members sitting in the first five or so rows of those sections cannot see without standing as well. "It has a ripple effect," Gentry said. "People in the first rows can't see if they don't stand and so people behind them have to stand up as well." There weren't any complaints before Sunday's game because students didn't sit in front of those sections until this year. Students now occupy sections C, L and N, small, pie-shaped sections closer to the court. Sections L and N are located on both sides of the student section directly behind the basket on the south side. Section C is located directly northeast of the student section at the opposite end of the court. The occupants of those sections last season SEE FACULTY ON PAGE 7A Student to share Africa experience Pamela M.

Sarah Smiley, geography doctoral student at the University of Kansas,was one of those students. She traveled with students across the nation to the east coast of Africa to learn its official language, Swahili. She said it was strange how dark it was when they got there, but in the morning there were different trees, plants, people and a language to explore. "On the buses we were all pressing our faces against the glass trying to get a glimpse of something." Smiley said. Smiley will give a lecture titled, "My First Experience with Africa: Swahili Culture and Language in Tanzania" noon to 1 p.m. today at Alcove F in the Kansas Union. The lecture is part of the Kansas African Studies Center UJ-AMAA Brown Bag Series. Ujamaa means family or togetherness. Smiley is the sixth speaker in the seven lecture series. Smiley was the first KU student to travel to Tanzania through the Fulbright program. This 20-year-old program is government founded and is an attempt to promote the learning of less-commonly taught languages at the University. Other less-commonly taught languages are Arabic, Hausa, Kaqchikel Mayan, Kechwa, Korean and Polish. SEE AFRICA ON PAGE 7A GSP hall employee contracts hepatitis A Although a food service employee at Gertrude Sellars Pearson dining hall was diagnosed with hepatitis A, students should not worry. Kim Ens, Douglas County Health Department representative, said yesterday. Residents would have been at risk if the food worker had not washed her hands before preparing foods. The worker has not been at work for more than a week and the preparation practices of the dining center were sound, Ens said. Hepatitis A — a mild infection of the liver — is transmitted through fecal matter. People are at risk only if they do not wash their hands after going to the restroom or changing a diaper, or if people consume something that might be infected by someone not washing their hands before food preparation. The Health Department did a review of the dining center on Monday and reported that residents had an extremely slim chance of having been infected. Student Housing has distributed an information sheet, he said. "We feel really confident that the food-handling practices at the facility are great." Ens said. Ken Stoner, director of Student Housing, said yesterday that students should not be concerned. Although it is extremely unlikely, if anyone thinks they do have the symptoms, students can go to Watkins Memorial Health Center, Ens said. Hepatitis A symptoms are fatigue, fever, poor appetite, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dark urine or yellowing of the skin and eyes. Kansan Staff Report Convictions influence some voters BY ANDY HYLAND ahyland@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITE The Campus Crusade for Christ member and Emporia senior was not only excited about the result, but also that many voters relied on moral values to make their decision, and that the majority of those voters chose President George Bush. The result of this year's presidential election satisfied Lee Bickerstaff. "The Christian community was much more mobilized this election," he said. He attributed that to the focus on moral issues this election, as well as the clear distinction between the candidates on issues like abortion, gay marriage and stem cell research. The role of moral values in this election was important, said Burdett Loomis, professor and chairman of political science. "There was a substantial victory there," he said.

As of last night, the fighting had killed 10 U.S. troops and two members of the Iraqi security force, the U.S. military announced. The toll already equaled the 10 American military deaths when Marines besieged the city for three weeks in April. U. S. officials issued no estimate of insurgent casualties, but one American commander said his battalion alone had killed or wounded up to 90 guerrillas. ways, mindful of ships. A psychological operations unit broadcast announcements in Arabic meant to draw out gunmen. An Iraqi translator from the group said through a loudspeaker: "Brave terrorists, I am waiting here for the brave terrorists. Come and kill us. Plant small bombs on As the offensive moved into a second full day, up to eight attack aircraft — including jets and helicopter gunships — blasted guerrilla strongholds and raked the streets with rocket, cannon and machine-gun fire ahead of U.S. and Iraqi infantry who were advancing only one or two blocks behind the curtain of fire. Small groups of guerrillas, armed with rifles, rocket-propelled grenades, mortars and machine guns, engaged U.S. troops, then fell back. U.S. troops inspected houses along Fallujah's streets and ran across adjoining alleywavs, mindful of snipers. roadside. Attention, attention, terrorists of Fallujah." Faced with overwhelming force, resistance in Fallujah did not appear as fierce as expected, though the top U.S. commander in Iraq said he still expected "several more days of tough urban fighting" as insurgents fell back toward the southern end of the city, perhaps for a last stand. Some U.S. military officers estimated they controlled about a third of the city. Commanders said they had not fully secured the northern half of Fallujah but were well on their way as American and Iraqi troops searched for insurgents. U. S. and Iraqi troops captured two key landmarks yesterday — a mosque and neighboring convention center that insurgents used for launching attacks, according to a Los Angeles Times reporter embedded with U.S. forces.

NATION Scientists debate links between cancer, abortion Tr $5,00 the King spea WASHINGTON — In several states, women considering abortion are given government-issued brochures warning that the procedure could increase their chance of developing breast cancer, despite scientific findings to the contrary. More than a year ago, a panel of scientists convened by the National Cancer Institute reviewed available data and concluded there is no link. A scientific review in the Lancet, a British medical journal, came to the same conclusion, questioning the methodology in studies that suggested a link. The cancer information is distributed to women during mandatory waiting periods before abortions. In some cases, the information is on the states' Web sites. "We're going to continue to educate the public about this," said Karen Malec, president of the Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer, an anti-abortion group. She dismissed the National Cancer Institute's findings as politically motivated and maintained that the link has been scientifically proven. -The Associated Press ET CETERA The University Daily Kansan is the student newspaper of the University of Kansas.

I WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 10,2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 3A NEWS MLK speaker funds approved By STEPHANIE FARELY sfarley@kansan.com KANSAN SUMMER WRITE The Lawrence City Commission approved a request from the Ecumenical Fellowship, Inc., at last night's meeting. The Fellowship requested $5,000 in additional funding for the 20th annual Martin Luther King Jr. celebration to pay for sneaker fees. One of the speakers for the event will be Terrence Roberts, one of nine African-American students who entered a segregated high school in Little Rock, Ark., in 1957. The celebration will be held Jan. 13 to 17. Roberts will speak on Jan. 17 in the Lied Center. Rev. William Dulin, president for the Fellowship, thanked the commission for its past support and participation with the event. Good speakers are nice to bring in for events, but good speakers also cost money, he said. Transportation and lodging for the speakers are provided at the cost of the Fellowship. The Fellowship, Dulin said, passed up Coretta Scott King, a human rights activist and wife of Martin Luther King Jr. Scott King's initial speaking cost is about $12,000, not including transportation and lodging. Dennis Highberger, city commissioner, said his only concern with providing the additional funding was the commission needed to be careful it was not funding a religious event or activity. The religious concern can be avoided by centering the commission's support around the civil rights legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. city commissioner David Dunfield said. "We're here to make a difference." Barbee said. The celebration is a wonderful example of community building, and It's an honor and a great opportunity to have one of the Little Rock Nine come to Lawrence and to also be able to allow students to see and hear him speak, city commissioner Sue Hack said. The Fellowship is already receiving $1,400 in funding for the celebration from the city's general operating fund. Sue Hickok said. Ree. Leo Barbee Jr. Fellowship vice president, said he thought people sometimes forgot that Martin Luther King Jr. stood for everyone and was not just a religious leader. - Edited by Ryan Greene Car bomb kills 2 Kansans in Iraq THE ASSOCIATED PRESS IOPEKA, Kan. — The first Kansas Army National Guard soldiers to die in combat since the Vietnam War were killed by a car bomb on Monday in Baghdad, the Army said Tuesday. 21, of Troy, the Kansas Army National Guard said. Both soldiers were members of Battery B, 2nd Battalion, 150th Field Artillery. Killed were Staff Sgt. Clinton Lee Wisdom, 39, of Atchison, and Spe. Don Clarv Arnley. The two soldiers died after they positioned their vehicle between a convoy they were assigned to protect and a vehicle driven by insurgents that exploded. Kansas National Guard officials said. Masked girls deliver guerrilla tactics BY LAURA FRANCOVIIELLA francovigliola@kansan.com KANSAN STAR WRITER The Guerrilla Girls call themselves masked avengers of women's rights for good reason: The artists wear gorilla masks. These masked avengers, who compared themselves to other masked do-gooders such as Robin Hood and Superwoman, fight sexism and racism in the art world, and throughout all culture, with educational presentations and lectures. The Guerrilla Girls gave a presentation to an audience of more than 200 men and women last night at the Kansas Union. The women used pseudonyms of famous artists, Frida Kahlo and Kathe Kollwitz, to disguise their true identities. They said they wanted to remain anonymous protect their professional careers as artists and to focus on the issues in their presentation. "We're anonymous freedom Kahlo and Kollwitz said their tactics were like guerrilla warfare. They used humor, shocking statistics and female stereotypes to drive their presentation. fighters in culture," said Kahlo. "We strike with merely pens and a fierce tongue." to drive them. No woman had ever won the Oscar for best director, they said. The women responded to this statistic by presenting a billboard of an anatomically correct Oscar to the audience. He was white, pale, pudgy, losing his hair and very modest, said Kahlo. Goes-After-Black Wife The Guerrilla Girls also said women needed to reclaim the The Guerrilla Girls were blunt in describing stereotypes of women. They showed slides of their ethnic doll collection; the slides were meant to offend every person in the room, they said. The dolls included "Lauren, the Jewish-American Princess," "Tiffany, the Foxy Fly Girl" and "Susan, the White-Girl-Who Goes-After-Black-Men." word "bitch." "Any woman that succeeds at anything is called a bitch," Kahlou said. word "bitch." Kahlou said. Kahlou and Kohlwitz joked that they had done important research into the distinction between the words "bitch" and "slut". "A bitch sleeps with everyone and a slut sleeps with everyone but you," Kahlo said. Kahlo said the presentation was meant to capture people's imaginations and make them laugh. Liberty Grayek, a Plainville graduate student in art history, already knew what the Guerrilla Girls were about. Girls were told, "They reinforced the idea that inequality has to be addressed," Gravek said. Kathleen Lynch, Shawnee sophomore, said the Guerrilla Girls informal'on was relevant to her experiences in art history classes. "It applies to every field," she said. "There are so many double standards." Instead of covering both men and women equally, Lynch said her art history classes, especially in high school, focused on only white, male artists. The Guerrilla Girls' roots are in New York City's art world, but they have progressed to defend women's rights in all genres. Kahlo and Kollwitz were two founders of the Guerrilla Girls, which began 19 years ago. The women would not specify where or how many Guerrilla girls there were, but they said any woman could be a Guerrilla Girl. Kollwitz said, despite their presentations, they hadn't succeeded in bringing the word "feminism" back to life yet. "Feminists have always been demonized," Kahlo said. The two women still want to work in communities to promote female empowerment. "One goal is to reinvent the F-word." Kollwitz said. Edited by Marissa Stephenson Ashcroft, Evans leaving Cabinet THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Attorney General John Ashcroft, a favorite of conservatives, and Commerce Secretary Don Evans, one of President Bush's closest friends, resigned yesterday, the first members of the Cabinet to leave as Bush heads from re-election into his second term. Both Ashcroft and Evans have served in Bush's Cabinet from the start of the administration. removal of his gall bladder. Asoheroff, in a five-page, handwritten letter to Bush, said, "The objective of securing the safety of Americans from crime and terror has been achieved." terror has occurred." Yet I believe that the Department of Justice would be well served by new leadership and fresh inspiration," said Ashcroft, whose health problems earlier this year resulted in Evans, a longtime friend from Texas, wrote Bush, "While the promise of your second term shines bright, I have concluded with deep regret that it is time for me to return home." "I believe that my energies and talents should be directed toward other challenging horizons," he said. Ashcroft's letter was dated Nov. 2, Election Day. Bush issued statements of praise for both men - and for the policies they advanced. "John Ashcroft has worked tirelessly to help make our country safer," the president said. "John has served our nation with honor, distinction and integrity." Bush's farewell to Evans was more effusive and more personal, fitting to their more than three decades of friendship dating to the oil business in Midland, Texas, where they would attend church together and meet every day for a three-mile jog. "Don Evans is one of my most trusted friends and advisers." Bush said. "Don has worked to advance economic security and prosperity for all Americans. He has worked steadfastly to make sure America continues to be the best place in the world to do business." Ashcroft, 62. has been well liked by many conservatives. At the same time, he has been a lightning rod for criticism of his handling of the U.S. end of the war against terror, especially the detention of terror suspects. Evans, 58, was instrumental in Bush's 2000 campaign and came with him to Washington. Evans has told aides he was ready for a change. He was mentioned as a possible White House chief of staff in Bush's second term, but the president decided to keep Andy Card in that job. One name being mentioned for Evans' job at Commerce is Mercer Reynolds, national finance chairman for the Bush campaign, who raised more than $260 million to get him re-elected. Speculation about a successor to Ashcroft has centered on his former deputy, Larry Thompson, who recently took a job as general counsel at PepsiCo. If appointed, Thompson would be the nation's first black attorney general. Others prominently mentioned include Bush's 2004 campaign chairman, former Montana Gov. Marc Racicot, and White House general counsel Alberto Gonzales.

The American public stays up through the wee hours of the nights, glued to the television, refusing to go to bed until they know who the next President of the United States will be. This year, the big question was Ohio. While it is located in the eastern time zone, supposedly the earliest polls to close, Ohio votes were still being counted early into the next morning. Why is this? Citizens in Ohio who had been at the polls before the closing time were still waiting in line for several hours after the polls closed just to get in the building and vote. This is just one of the many reasons why National Election Day should be a national holiday as it is in other countries, such as Puerto Rico. Logically, the rush of voters comes early in the morning before the commuters and working citizens need to be at work, during their lunch break, and after work until the polls close. While people wait in line for hours during these times, most other times are relatively dead. One way to solve the problem is by giving everyone the day off work so that the voting would be more evenly spread out and easier for the local polls to handle. Another problem that probably hits closer to home for many KU students who live in or close to Lawrence, or who are from out of town but registered locally, is one of class conflicts. While some students had no problem taking the afternoon or a break between classes to go vote, others had to get up extra early, or even skip a class to go vote. Considering that encouraging the youth vote has been a major national goal in previous elections, especially the latest, the class conflicts are certainly not helping students who may have voted but are unwilling or unable to skip class to go to the polls that day. Perhaps this was part of why the surge of youth voter registration was followed by a low turnout on Election Day. Making Election Day a national holiday is not only a practical solution to higher voter turnout and more efficient vote counting, it would also be a patriotic day to remember one of the greatest things about the United States of America: the freedom to vote in a legitimate and fair democracy.

Steve Sack/STAR TRIBUNE Bus system not wheelchair-friendly The KU on Wheels bus system is in grave danger of violating the Americans With Disabilities Act. A vast majority of the buses in the KU on Wheels fleet are inaccessible to people with mobility disabilities, such as those who use wheelchairs, because the buses do not have lifts. NOT UNHEARD OF The ADA requires public transportation to be accessible to all persons with disabilities. Beginning in 1990, all newly purchased or leased public transport systems must be accessible to people with disabilities. If the public transportation system is not accessible, then the public-transit authorities must provide "comparable services" until the system is entirely accessible. system is entirely The University's idea of "comparable services" is the LiftVan program. Unfortunately, the LiftVan is not comparable to a fully-accessible public transport system. The LiftVan fails to serve the needs of people with disabilities in the same manner that the KU on Wheels system serves all KU students. In order to use the LiftVan, a student must submit a class schedule to the Services for Students with Disabilities Office. The LiftVan then picks up the student at their residence and transports him directly to his class. There are quite a few problems with this service. The LiftVan only operates between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Students must request rides 24 hours in advance. They also must cancel pick-ups 24 hours in advance. If a student fails to cancel 24 hours in advance two times, then their LiftVan service may be canceled for the rest of the semester. NOT CURABLE OF Even worse, if a student misses one pick-up time, then all subsequent pick-ups for that day are canceled. TARA SCHUPNER opinion@kansan.com And the kicker? Students must purchase a bus pass at full price in order to use a program that does not provide the same services as the KU on Wheels bus system. When most students oversleep and miss one KU on Wheels bus, they can simply wait a few minutes, hop on the next one, and get to class only a few minutes late. If a person who uses a wheelchair oversleeps and misses the pick-up time by ten minutes, they're out of luck for the rest of the day unless they can find someone to take them to their next class. their next class. Students can also use the KU on Wheels bus to go to activities, advising appointments, and meetings on campus. The LiftVan transports students only to classes. These students "do not have equal opportunity to participate equally in campus life," said Dorothy Nary, training director of the Research and Training Center on Independent Living at the University. A KU graduate and wheelchair user, Adam Burnett, recalled his difficulties with getting around campus. "It was great as long as the event was between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., class related, on campus, and if I had 24-hour notice. How many college events happen like that?" According to Burnett, students with disabilities have three options when the LiftVan is not running or when they want to attend an activity or event: rely on friends to push you there, arrange your own transportation, or stay home. Students with disabilities should never feel forced to stay at home because the University transport system is inadequate and does not meet their needs. They deserve to be able to become involved in any campus activity at any time they want. Unfortunately, when they want to speak up on their own behalf, students with disabilities are stuck in a catch-22. In order to make their voices heard to the Student Senate, they need to come to Senate meetings. However, those meetings take place after LiftVan hours and are not class-related. and are not class "Last week, a student who uses a wheelchair was unable to attend and speak at the Transportation Committee meeting because he had no way to travel there." Nary said. The University, particularly the Student Senate, needs to take this issue very seriously and overhaul the bus system, even changing the contract for KU on Wheels if necessary. It has been 14 years since the ADA became law, and the University has had plenty of time to find the means to make their transportation system fully accessible. Every day that the LiftVan is offered as a "comparable" replacement for the KU on Wheels system is a day that students with disabilities are discriminated against. - Schupner is a Lenexa senior in journalism and English.

On property purchase and marriage The KUPAC asserts that being able to rent or buy a home at the age of 18 is a responsibility that should be accompanied by the right to purchase alcohol. Indeed, signing a lease, mortgage or marriage license is quite a responsibility, which shows an individual can support a financial commitment. This has nothing to do with committing to The status quo prohibits citizens less than 21 years of age from purchasing, having public possession and consuming alcoholic beverages. One must consider the implications of revising the NMDAA and examine KUPAC's justification for doing so. These reasons relate to property purchase, marital union, military service, voting, judicial cost and health. The following statement is addressed to The University of Kansas Political Activist Club (KUPAC) concerning its efforts to revise the National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 (NMDAA). Changing minimum drinking age involves other elements WEI LETTERS TO THE EDITOR On military service and enlistment: Once again, this is irrelevant with respect to demonstrating healthy drinking habits. Or perhaps, assuming that all members of the KUPAC are enlisted (their argument would be void otherwise), might it be suggested that they attempt to lower the minimum drinking age for individuals presenting proper military identification. healthy drinking habits, something that is usually not detected by loan organizations. Failing to pay loans results in property loss, failing to drink responsibly has more severe implications. On voting: The privilege of voting is granted to prepare citizens for their constructive contribution to the nation's welfare and growth. Many adult liberties are available because politicians have observed positive outcomes — over decades — from their implementation. So far, this nation has seen no significant and productive results from underage drinking. F On judicial costs: Yes, prosecution can become expensive, just as everything else in this nation. Be confident CON On health: It is very true that moderate alcohol intake reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease, hypertension and Alzheimer's disease. However, its efficacy applies to few 18-year-olds. Any attempt to "get a head start" on responsible and healthy drinking need not begin until an individual is finished growing. If moderate consumption for medicinal purposes is appropriate for a minor, the facilitators of this treatment will diagnose and administer accordingly. that the cops would rather deal with the cost of an MIP than wait for the coroner to arrive at a party that went uninterrupted by authorities.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LEAWOOD — Prosecutors yesterday charged a 29-year-old Connecticut man with the slaying of a teenager whose death captivated the Kansas City area. Police in Connecticut arrested Benjamin Appleby, of Bantam, Conn., on Monday, and he later confessed to the attempted rape and murder in June 2002 of Ali Kemp in Leawood, according to an application for an arrest warrant filed by Connecticut State Police. Yesterday prosecutors in Johnson County charged Appleby with first-degree murder in the death of Kemp, a 19-year-old student at Kansas State University who was working at a swimming pool in the Kansas City suburb. "I never thought we wouldn't get this predator," said Roger Kemp, Ali's father. "And we got him. We wanted him and we wanted him bad. We say this is our guy." Appleby could face the death penalty, Johnson County District Attorney Paul Morrison said. Appleby, held on a $1 million bond, waived extradition to Kansas and is expected to arrive in the next two days, Morrison said. State police picked up Appleby on Monday on an unrelated warrant from 1997, when Appleby lived in Connecticut under the alias of Teddy Hoover II, police said. Those charges Appleby told Connecticut police that Teddy L. Hoover II was the name of a friend who had died. Leaward police contacted Connecticut police after learning that Appleby's longtime girlfriend was living in Bantam, and he appeared to be receiving mail at her address. include risk of injury, disorderly conduct and public indecency, state police said. While in custody, Appleby was questioned about the beating death of Kemp, who was suffering from a severe head injury when she was found in June 2002 in the pool room of a neighborhood swimming pool. "He did provide information and evidence that caused Kansas detectives to conclude that this accused was to be charged," Connecticut State Police said in a statement. Appleby has been arrested five times in Missouri and convicted on four of seven felony charges, according to the Connecticut warrant application. The charges include first-degree robbery and armed criminal action in 1992, second-degree robbery and second-degree burglary in 1993, sexual misconduct in 1994 and indecent exposure in 1996, according to the application, which does not list his convictions. His record also included four misdeanor charges, for which he was never convicted, and one local ordinance charge. Morrison said Appleby had SOME KEY DATES IN THE ALI KEMP HOMICIDE CASE June 18: Ali Kemp, 19, of Leawood, dies after being found injured in the pump room of a neighborhood pool, where she worked as an attendant.

April 9: Kemp family takes out the first of two ads in USA Today, prompting another flood of tips. May 24: Pool where Kemp worked is reopened; it had been closed since her death. 2004: Nov. 8: Suspect Benjamin Applaby, 29, of Bantam, Conn., arrested in Connecticut. Connecticut Nov. 9: Anpleby charged with first-degree murder in Kemp's death family in the Leawood area and had a small pool-cleaning business when Kemp was killed. The Connecticut warrant application said Appleby's father lived in Kansas. Kemp's killing attracted widespread media attention, due in part to the relentless efforts of her family to keep the case in the public eye. The Kemp family and others offered a total of $50,000 in reward money for tips that led to the arrest of her killer. Leawood police Maj. Craig Hill said he met with Roger Kemp on Monday night. "I saw a heart filled with sorrow, but it was also filled with joy," Craig said. In the application for an arrest warrant, Connecticut police said detectives from Leawood asked for their assistance getting a DNA sample from Appleby. Police wanted to test his DNA against blood found at the scene of Kemp's death, including blood found on her shirt and bra. Police have that sample, according to the application for the warrant, but testing was incomplete when it was filed yesterday. Morrison declined to comment about the DNA evidence yesterday.

He said the problem could be alleviated if students didn't stand on the benches. "One of the things we don't want to do is stifle the enthusiasm of students," Marchiony said. "But students can help the situation immensely by standing on the floor and not on the seats." He said the athletics department would continue to work with Senate to encourage standing on the floor. Carl Daniels, whose wife is a faculty member, sat in section 10 during Sunday's game. He said he was angry because the poor view was not worth the high ticket price. "We didn't see the whole first half," Daniels said. "We paid $40 to look at the back of that guy's shirt." every day. Student Body President Steve Munch said Senate could not please everyone, but senators were open to suggestions to resolve the problem. "You will always have angry people, but we want to do as much as possible to appease the faculty," Munch said. Some of the students at Sunday's game were not as eager to take action. "It is their problem," Vanessa Jamison, Emporia freshman, said of the faculty. "We are students and we are going to watch the game how we want." English professor Dorice Elliot also has seats in section 10. She said that the view was the worst during the first half of Sunday's game when the Jayhawks were scoring on the south basket. "During the first half, when KU was at this end, everyone left because they couldn't see," Other faculty members, like David Guth, said it wasn't as easy for some of the older faculty members to stand for the entire game as it was for students. Elliot said. "Standing on a seat for two hours is nothing to a 22-year-old." Guth, journalism professor, said in an e-mail. "But when you are 52 years old with bad knees, that's a different story." Regardless of how University officials decide to resolve the issue, Gentry said he thought it would be easiest to adjust the seating plan. Guth said he was pleased to hear that University administrators had taken steps to find a resolution. in basketball, coaches change their game plan during a time-out or during halftime if things aren't working.

Loomis said those "moral values," as defined by a pollster, probably meant Christian religious values in the minds of those polled. Andrew Vaupel/KANSAN "I think they affected the election, especially in rural Ohio and the South," he said. VOTERS: President focused on values, policy CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A He said people went to the polls and voted on morals on election day, but the president highlighted an agenda focused on tax cuts, social security reform and Iraq on Thursday. Loomis said he wasn't sure whether the Republican Party would concentrate on moral issues this term. "Suddenly the moral-values element is gone," Loomis said. "At the same time, they may well be voting for tax cuts for the rich." Kathleen Daughtey, president of the KU Young Democrats, said taxes and policy should be the president's main focus. She said that movement would likely infringe on civil liberties and increase discrimination. She said it would also make it more difficult for the government to deal with Islamic fundamentalism. "I think a lot of people put their personal values over their economic interests," she said. "There is a fundamentalist movement eclipsing the separation of church and state." Bickerstaff said he wasn't surprised Bush didn't come right out and talk about moral values. "He's not on some moral cruse to turn America into Christians," he said. "He's got to do his job and address these other issues." He said he knew moral values were at the forefront of the president's mind because of his character. Bush would help lead a cultural shift towards more conservative thinking, he said, and that would take a long time, so he didn't expect results right away. "Some people say you shouldn't legislate values, but no matter who is put into power, their values are going to affect their decisions," he said. Bickerstaff said that the Republicans would have a mandate from the voters to provide support for right to life and sanctity of marriage issues.

I've been raised very strong in my religion, so in politics, I try to pick somebody who's going to represent the beliefs that have been instilled in me." Allison Baalman, Grinnell sophomore What role does religion play for you in selecting a political candidate? DANIELLE DAVIDSON "If that candidate would do something for me, then I'd vote for that candidate, so it falls in the same category as other issues for me."

AFRICA: Geography doctoral student speaks about differences in culture and language in Tanzania CONTINUED FROM 1A lecture because of her participation, said Garth Myers, associate professor of geography. This was the first time that the University had a student participate in this program for the Swahili language. The program includes two years of studying the language at the University and then an intensive education in that language-speaking country. "It makes you fluent in the language," Myers said. The best way to learn a language was to experience the people and culture behind it, Myers said. That was how he became fluent in Swahili when he went to Tanzania in 1989. "I hope that this is the first of many KU students to go," Myers said. "We would like to see people going every year." Smiley is one of Myers' students and said she was focused on urban and cultural geography. Smiley earned her bachelor's degree from the University of Cincinnati and came to Kansas because of its strong programs in geography and African studies. The University was a way to marry both passions together, she said. Smiley became interested in African studies as an undergraduate in 1999 when she worked for Oxfam America in Washington, DC. Oxfam America is a Boston-based international development and relief agency. That summer Smiley worked on African issues, specifically debt relief. This later became the subject for her Master's thesis. "I was hooked and have been studying the continent ever since." she said. Smiley studied Swahili for two years at the University before traveling to Dar es Salaam, a city in Tanzania with a population of more than two million. Part of the learning experience for Smiley was staying with a host family for four weekends during the trip. Staying with a host family can "I knew enough to get by, but the way to learn is to speak the language." Smiley said. be overwhelming. Smiley said, but it was a way to learn what daily life was like. She helped with the daily chores, such as cooking and doing laundry, when she stayed with her host family of six. Her host family worked longer days because they had to start the day earlier than her family in America. "We have toasters and ovens, they had a coal fire and an electric hot plate," Smiley said. They didn't have a washer or dryer either, Smiley said. The laundry was done in a wash tub. "It took them longer to do everything, but they still got more done in an average day than Americans do here," she said. Experiencing the culture was a highlight for Smiley. "You can learn a language, but to actually go and see how the language is used and to form relationships with people is wonderful," she said. The people she meet were welcoming. Smiley said. Most people were happy to meet an American interested in learning African culture and language. The last lecture in the UJAMA Brown Bag Series will be given by General Carlton W. Fulford, director of African Center for Strategic Studies at National Defense University in Fort McNair Washington, DC. The lecture will take place from 4 to 5:30 p.m., Monday, Nov. 29, at room 109 in Bailey Hall. His lecture is titled. "U.S. Military Policy Towards Africa in an Era of Wars." To Smiley, what stuck out about the culture in Tanzania was the importance of food and drink in relation to socializing. Each individual EduKun college is a member of the North Central Association and accredited by the Higher Learning Commission to offer AS, AA, and AGS degrees online. - Edited by Rupal Gor yes, You Can With EduKan. 1-877-4EDUKAN Smiley said she wanted to return to Tanzania next fall to conduct her doctoral dissertation research. She will study local newspapers and television to see how the city's popular culture is represented. Every day her host family took two tea breaks. "We have coffee breaks here, but as a student it was something I was not use to." Smiley said. www.edukan.org Amanda Kim Stairrett/KANSAN A EduKam www.edukan.org EduKan is an online consortium involving six accredited community colleges in Kansas.

The announcement came one day after Kansas was named the No.1 team in the first AP poll. Simien garnered 50 votes in the balloting, second only to Wake Forest sophomore guard Chris Paul.

"We just want to make sure we do everything we can to be successful in those two games," Mangino said. "Some parts of our game, if we elevate them, anything can happen." Some of the players, especially those graduating, look at these last two games as an opportunity to leave their mark on the team. For senior center Joe Vaughn, the season is not finished just because there's no opportunity at a bowl bid. "We have to play hard." Vaughn said. "You work hard all year to play 11 games, not nine." The players also seem to remain optimistic about beating their remaining opponents. No one on the team appears to be concerned about Texas' 8-1 record or Kansas' inability to win a Big 12 road game. Senior safety Tony Stubbs looks at these last two games as his final shot at leading his team to a victory. "Guys are still in good spirits, ready to pull an upset," Vaughn said. "Definitely want to spoil these last two teams' parties, because Texas is BCS," Stubbs said. "If you beat them, that's like beating K-State." Vaughn has one reason why this team wants to be a spoiler. "We'd like to spoil people's McCoy spent most of his time eating and working out.

Notes The Kansas-Missouri game will kick off at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 20. The game will not be televised. At yesterday's press conference, Mangino said there would be no third string quarterback. In the event of injuries to senior John Nielsen and junior Brian Luke, snaps would go either to sophomore Charles Gordon or an injured quarterback, who would hand the ball off. Mangino and John McCoy, the Jayhawks' offensive lineman who is serving in the Army, in Iraq, remain in regular contact via e-mail. McCoy could not disclose his location to Mangino, but Mangino said Players of the week for the Colorado game were senior tight end Lyonel Anderson on offense, sophomore cornerback Charles Gordon on defense, while no one was selected for special teams. On the scout team, redshirt freshman Garrett Guzman was the offensive player of the week and redshirt freshman Andy Temple was the defensive player of the week. — Edited by Rupal Gor MEMORIES: Moping, gloating can be pointless distractions CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A from the ones that came before it and the ones that will inevitably come afterward. There is a lot happening during a game in a relatively tiny amount of time. In games such as volleyball, football and especially basketball there is hardly enough time to get back to the situation at hand. There is no time to dwell on the shot you just bricked or the kill you just missed. Athletes owe it to their teams to shake off failures in order to concentrate on the ensuing successes. Thinking about "what-ifs" and "should have been" takes the player out of the game mentally, causing more costly errors. Lee has found a way to turn his haunting missed opportunity into something very productive. Taking the time and initiative to get on the court more and partake in extra workouts to better himself and his performance is a great way to turn a bad situation into a very positive thing. Having the ability to shake off previous plays also includes avoiding too much congratulation on major successes or big victory as well. After making it to the Final Four two of their three seasons at the University of Kansas, this year's seniors cannot rely on experience alone to get them there again. But I worry about those who let previous failures get to them. As a former athlete, I cannot say that I have never done the same thing or that it is easy to let buisted opportunities go. It is damn near impossible. gresses, the more they have to realize how crucial it is to either turn their constant torturing of themselves into motivation to get better, as Lee did, or to clean the slate and know that you will succeed next time. If neither happens, the chances of valid and prolonged success will die a little each time a player beats himself up inside. the higher an athlete pro- Of course, these hard working guys know that already; they would never have gotten this far if they didn't. Gloating takes the athletes' mind off the continuing game exactly like moping does. Whatever the sport, whatever the situation, there is no quicker way to bring an individual or an entire team down than spending more than just a brief moment thinking about the past. No one can condemn using the past as motivation, but in sports, a short memory is the best memory. Bauer is a Winfield junior in journalism.

"The good is how much better we are when she's on the floor," coach Bonnie Henrickson said. "The bad part of that is as a junior she's got to know better." Kemp finished with 22 points and 13 rebounds. Turnovers presented another problem in the first half Jayhawks, but the second half provided redemption. Of the 14 first half miscues, junior guard Erica Hallman had six. The final 20 minutes only produced five turnovers. "We kicked it out in the second half," Henrickson said. "We didn't try to force things through the middle of the lane." Better passing led Kansas to open up the second half on a 31-5 run that put the Jayhawks firmly in control. The Jayhawks hit 31 of their 65 shot attempts with 21 assists. The Tigers struggled to contain the bigger Jaiyhawks roster and three Tigers — Laura Cowan, Ashlee Gustin and Heather McDonald — fouled out. FHSU committed 31 team fouls overall. Foul trouble was not the only sore spot for Fort Hays State, but shooting also prevented the Tigers from closing the gap in the first half. "If they had hit some more shots, that would have been a different game early," Hendrickson said. The Jayhawk defense forced 27 turnovers and held the Tigers to 17-of-64 shooting. Guard Crystal Harden led Fort Havys with 10 points. Junior guard Kaylee Brown finished with 17 points and Burras added 15 to help Kansas to victory. Freshman forward Jamie Boyd made her Jayhawk debut by posting seven points and 11 rebounds in 24 minutes. Kansas plays its next exhibition game on Nov. 16 against the California All-Stars in Allen Fieldhouse. The team opens the regular season on Nov. 21 with a home game against Texas- Arlington.

STARTERS: Coach Bechard says team needs to keep balance CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A But Caten was the star that night, posting 15 kills. She has matched or exceeded that total three times this season, all in the last six matches. Caten, who was named the Big 12 preseason newcomer of the year but struggled to adjust to the speed of Big 12 serves and hits, said she felt more comfortable on the court in recent weeks, but was not playing as well as she'd like. Coach Ray Bechard said it was important to keep teams offbalance with four or five scoring threats in his team's rotation. Caten, Correa, Lima and Michaels had double-digit kills Saturday against Oklahoma while Brown added seven. Bechard said the team would need to maintain that balance if it wanted to match last season's November success. The team's 7-1 finish last year included close victories against Texas and Texas A&M. Like last season, the Jayhawks find themselves 14-9 entering a crucial November stretch. They might have to win four of their final six matches to advance. Bechard said. The Bears defeated the Jayhawks 3-1 on Oct. 2 in Waco, Texas. He said the team was ready to face Baylor tonight at 7 in Horeisi Family Athletics Center. "That was one of our most disappointing losses of the year," he said. "This team better be excited for Baylor."

"We all felt nervous because it's a new coach and a new season," senior guard Aquanita Burras said. "We all felt like we were freshmen." Early anxiety left Kansas with a slight 37-24 halftime lead over Fort Hays State, but second half adjustments left a calmer, cooler Jayhawk squad with an 88-49 victory over the Tigers. An announced 1,325 fans were on hand for Henrickson's coaching debut, a notable increase from the crowd of 470 at last season's exhibition opener. opened. Both teams came out with plenty of mistakes and produced a sloppy first half. The Jayhawks and Tigers each committed 14 turnovers in the first 20 minutes and combined for 28 personal fouls. Even with the mistake-laden opening, Kansas jumped out to a quick 10-3 lead by making its first four shots and extended that lead to 30-10 before a late first-half run closed the gap to 13. Foul trouble that plagued the Jayhawks especially hampered playing time for junior forward Crystal Kemp, who only played five of the first 20 minutes. Kemp gathered her first foul at the 17:48 mark and her second at 16:08. After being taken out following her second foul, Kemp did not return until there was 7:17 left in the first half. SEE BASKETBALL ON PAGE 11A Alex Plassmeyer!KANSAN Junior guard Erica Hallman shoots a three last night in the Kansas women's basketball team's 88-49 victory over Fort Hays. Boyd, Kemp shine in rout BY BJ RAINS brains@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Not even four minutes into her first exhibition game of the 2004- 2005 season, Crystal Kemp was headed to the bench with two fouls. Kemp, who scored the first basket of the season on her team's opening possession, played only five minutes in the first half. One wouldn't know it from her stats though, as she finished with team highs with 22 points and 13 rebounds. "I was a little disappointed in the first half," Kemp said after Kansas' 88-49 victory over Fort Hays State. "I went out there a little too aggressive and committed some stupid fouls. I only played about five minutes, and next time I need to be smarter." Kemp was nine-for-12 from the field, including a stretch in the opening minutes of the second half where she scored on three consecutive possessions. "Defensively, she has to be better," Henrickson said. "She allows to many catches in the post, and doesn't fight as hard as she needs to keep the ball from coming in to her man." from coming in Kemp's 15 rebounds tied a career high, and she says most of them came pretty easy. "My size advantage over them helped me a lot." Kemp added. Kemp was excited after the game because the two charges she took during the game meant pizza from Henrickson. "I always say, if the post players take charges, we get pizza," Henrickson said. "I guess I've got to buy some now." If it wasn't stated in the program, no one who attended last night's game would have known that Jamie Boyd "I always say, if the players take charges, we get pizza. I guess I've got to buy some now." Bonnie Henrickson Women's basketball coach was a freshman. The six-foot forward grabbed 11 rebounds and added seven points in 21 minutes of action. points in 23 minutes. "That's what we loved about her when we were recruiting her," Henrickson said. "She's coachable. She wants to work hard. I liked the little 15-foot pull-up jumper she hit when they overplayed her. We really feel that how she's going to help us, when she's facing the basket." Boyd had 1,007 rebounds in high school, ranking her 8th all-time in the state Iowa. Like Kemp, though, she got in foul trouble, committing four first half fouls. Taylor McIntosh's first collegiate game didn't go as she would have liked. The Wichita freshman had just entered the game as a substitute, when a loose ball went rolling down the court. McIntosh dove for the ball, but instead got a knee to the face. "I actually didn't realize that I had that many fouls," Boyd said. "I was a little scared there that I might foul out. I was a little anxious and too aggressive so I tried to tone it down in the second half." "She's got a pretty bad black eye, and we have the team photo tomorrow, so she's not to happy about that," Henrickson said. "She's going to be fine. She wanted to go back in, but Murphy's Law — just let her sit there." Edited by Ryan Greene SEVENTH INNING STRETCH ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com Memories can haunt or inspire Many athletes can relate to the pain of senior basketball guard Mike Lee in April 2003. What so many of us wouldn't give to go back in time and change an undesirable fate or hold up the victorious moments in all their glory forever. Lee had his chance of a lifetime in the final seconds of the National Championship game against Syracuse. As fate would have it, Syracuse forward Hakim Warrick swatted away his shot before it could get to the basket. Game over. Few memories are as brutal as the missed shot, the bottom-of-the-ninth strikeout or the goal that got away. The list of ways athletes can win or lose a contest is far too long. Although there is no easy way to tell the heartbroken player in the hours immediately after such an incident that they have to forget about it, it's the truth. Forgetting moments like these, however impossible it may be, is vital to the future successes of the players and their teams. No matter the sport, having a shortterm memory is as much a necessity as good physical conditioning. The way each shot, plate appearance, shot on goal and pass play is approached should be completely independent SEE MEMORIES ON PAGE 10A Outside starters crucial Correa, Caten lead Jayhawks in kills last five games BY BILL CROSS bcrosskansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITER The Kansas volleyball team began the season with two proven middle blockers and a throng of questions at the outside positions. the outside position of the outfield. None of the team's three outside starters — sophomore Jana Correa, junior Paula Caten and freshman Emily Brown — played with the team during its 7-1 finish and ensuing tournament appearance last season. Brown was in high school, Correa was inactive because of a knee injury and Caten was leading Barton County Community College to a NJCAA championship. Earlier this year, middle blockers Josi Lima, a junior, and Ashley Michael, a senior, led the team during its 9-0 nonconference streak. Lima earned preseason All-Big 12 Conference honors while Michaels led the nation in blocks. But as the team begins the home stretch in its race for a second consecutive NCAA tournament berth, starting tonight with a home match against Baylor, the outside hitters are providing most of the offense. Either Correa or Caten has led the team in kills in each of the last five matches, excluding a ghastly team offensive outing against Kansas State "The first half of the season, everyone knew Josi and Ashley were our go-to offense," she said. "Now we have options, and Jana and Paula are doing a great job." Brown said opponents crowded the middle of the net to neutralize Lima and Michaels, leaving the edges open for perimeter hitters. "We were really sad after that game, then we had a good talk and decided we'd have fun," Correa said. "We want to play as well as we can and have fun." She led the team with 17 kills in a loss to Missouri a week ago. The next highest scorers on the team, Lima and Caten, each had seven kills. After last October's season-ending injury, Correa had to adjust to Division I volleyball all over again, she said. in Manhattan. "I had to get used to the pace of the game again," she said. "I've become more comfortable after the injury. I'm getting better and jumping higher." That was obvious Saturday night, as she posted 10 kills—the sixth time in seven matches with 10 or more - and added a solo block and a block assist.

With the end of the season only two games away, the Kansas football team has two goals it wants to accomplish in those games. "We've got a BCS team coming in here, and we're looking forward to competing with them," Mangino said. Kansas plays Texas this Saturday at home and then travels to Columbia, Mo., to meet Missouri in its season finale. Texas is ranked No. 6 in the Bowl Championship Series. The top six teams are guaranteed a berth in a BCS bowl. are guaranteed. Missouri is 4-5 and has a bye week before playing Kansas.

AGE 10A I THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2004 VOL.115 ISSUE 59 Fast-a-thon draws 400 BY ANDY HYLAND ahyland@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Between big bites of Mediterranean rice and roast chicken, Amanda Gustin said she had been looking forward to this all day. www.kansan.com The Glen Elyn, Ill., sophomore, had been fasting since sunrise as a part of the Muslim Student Association's Fasta-Thon, an event held to raise money for the Lawrence Open Shelter. Finally, when the sun set at 5:11 yesterday, she gathered with about 400 other participants at the Douglas County Fairgrounds to enjoy a Mediterranean meal provided by the MSA. "It was brutal," Gustin said of the fast. "I could eat dirt right now and it would taste good." The event also helped promote understanding of Islamic culture during the holy month of Ramadan, when all Muslims are called to abstain from food and water from sunup to sundown, said Asma Rehman, MSA president. She said the event raised $880.50 for the Lawrence homeless shelter and was This was the first year the University of Kansas participated, she said. part of an annual nationwide effort among Muslim Student Associations to help the homeless. "We're really happy." Rehman said. "Everybody seems to be into it." Jomana Qaddour, MSA program chairwoman, said that fasting was much more than just abstaining from food and water; Muslims are also called to abstain from negative thoughts. The participants also listened to a presentation about Islamic culture and watched as Muslims prayed one of their traditional five daily prayers. "It really teaches us how our whole religion is about self-restraint and patience," she said. Jack Garven, Leavenworth senior, participated in the fast and said he made it through the whole day without cheating. "I didn't even drink anything," he said. "I used to wrestle, so I'm used to the food part." The hardest part for Garven came when he had to run from Lindley Hall to Wescoe Hall in five minutes to turn in a paper and could not drink any water. "My throat was starting to burn," he said. Erin Gregory, Leawood freshman, said she cheated and drank some water. "It was harder than I thought it would be," she said. "It's definitely worth it to try it and put yourself in somebody else's shoes, even if it's just one day." Shaheen Latif, secretary of MSA, is fasting for the entire month, but she knows it's not about her. "The point is to raise awareness about the homeless," she said. — Edited by Janette Crawford Rain, rain, go away A Kit Leffler/KANSAN Tu Le, Garden City junior, and Chris Teefey, Lawrence senior, cross Jayhawk Boulevard yesterday evening.

He said it could be devastating to higher education funding that can lead to tuition increases. can lead to adopt a Taxpayer's Bill of Rights, funding for higher education could drop below 10 percent like it had in Colorado. Hemenway said "There's a good chance people will vote against it," he said about new taxes to fund education. Steve Munch, student body president, said he and the Student Legislative Awareness Board coordinators would be writing letters to the newly elected members of the Legislature. Munch, Bellevue, Neb., junior, said he would also be stepping up attempts to increase state funding by lobbying in Topeka. Jason Boots, SLAB communications director, said he and the legislative director would be spending about three days a week lobbying in Topeka next semester while the Legislature was in session.

CAMPUS Dole Institute hosts series about political humor Now that the election is over it is time to laugh, said Bill Lacy, director of the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics. "It helps us to understand that there are bigger things out there when you laugh at yourself a little bit," Lacy said. The Dole Institute is sponsoring a political humor series. The first of the series is at 7:30 tonight at the Dole Institute, west of the Lied Center. The event will be an insider's look at political cartoons and will feature Lee Judge, cartoonist for The Kansas City Star, Bill DeOre, cartoonist for The Dallas Morning News and Zach Stinson, Oak Hill, Va., senior and cartoonist for The University Daily Kansan. Lacy said there would be a balance among the panelists because Judge is considered to be more liberal while DeOre is considered to be more conservative. Adding Stinson to the panel was in part to include students in the pursuit and understanding of politics, but also was a personal choice for Lacv. "I think he is a very talented political cartoonist," Lacy said. "I feel very strongly about engaging students in the activities here. We hope to do more like this as we are establishing our programs." — Nikola Rowe UNIVERSITY Center has new leadership.

OS 00 di Topeka-based radio station WIBW bought the ownership rights — a two-year contract — in March. WIBW served as co-sponsor with the Lawrence Journal-World and Sunflower Broadband last year. The 2004 calendar marked WIBW's first involvement. Kelly Pierce, special events coordinator for WIBW, said when the opportunity to buy full promotional rights came up in January, the radio station jumped on it. "We really saw what a tremendous asset it was," Pierce said. "I wouldn't say it's risqué," Pierce said. "I'd say it's beautiful and classy." With the change in ownership, the 2005 edition reverted to the original swimsuit format, Pierce said. KANSAS Women of KU Women of KU "Everyone has a story to tell," Lara Greczyn, one of this year's models, said of the variety of women in this year's calendar. The Leavenworth graduate student said she thought more calendars would sell this year because the calendar now features models sporting swimsuits. which were more revealing than the outfits of the past. Greezyn said she auditioned for the calendar on a whim. She saw the commercial on television the day before, she said. "I just did it for the fun of it," Greczyn said. "It's my way of still being feminine." "I just heard a lot about it and it seemed like a lot of fun," said fellow model Andrea Horyna. Erin Lawless, Leawood junior, and Bryn Maughmer, Garden City junior, sign 2005 Women of KU calendars for fans yesterday afternoon at the University Book Shop. 1116 W.23rd St.The women were out promoting their recently released calendar. She said she did not plan to pursue modeling but thought it was a good experience. Horyna, Moscow junior, said she was chosen because of her involvement with intramural volleyball and her grade point average. "It's a good reason to keep our grades high." Horyna said. She said models were not paid in cash. "It's not a paying job." Horyna said. "We get other perks like gym memberships, free tanning and hair." The calendar went on sale yesterday at University Book Shop, 1116 W.23rd St., where models signed copies for fans. "Last year's calendar we had to re-order because we sold out," Morgan Sims, assistant textbook manager at the University Book Shop, said. An hour into the signing, Greczyn and Horyna said they had signed about 75 calendars. The KU Bookstore on the second level of the Kansas Union will not offer the calendars. "It's actually nothing we've ever been asked to carry," said Tim Norris, director of the bookstore. Models will sign calendars at Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Road, from 9 to 11 a.m. on Saturday, said Thomas Ramirez, the bookstore's advertising and marketing manager. Calendars sell for $9.95 each. — Edited by Steve Schmidt KU alum, author to discuss civil rights activists' impacts BY NIGLA ROWE nrowe@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITE Author, civil rights activist and University of Kansas graduate will speak today in honor of the 40th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act and the people who made a difference in our nation. "I want students to have an understanding of how far we have come as a nation," author Deric Gillard, 1977 William Allen White School of Journalism graduate, said. Gilliard speaks from 5 to 6 tonight at the Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. It is a great opportunity to have Gilliard at the school, Jennifer Kinnard, coordinator of Journalism Administration, said. "It is amazing all of the things he has done,"Kinnard said. Earlier this year Gilliard was featured on CNN and in a full page story in The Dallas Morning News Aug. 23. He works as the Public Affairs Director at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Secretary, Region IV, and also is the communications adviser to the Regional Director. His work includes establishing communication between media and political, community, faith-based and industry leaders throughout the region. Gilliard's book, Living in the Shadows of a Legend: Unsung Heroes and 'Sheroes' who Marched with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., focuses on 20 of the heroes behind the civil rights movement, whom Gilliard interviewed. "They've changed the thought process of the nation and have all given sacrificially," Gilliard said. In 2003 Gilliard was the first keynote speaker in the Rosa Parks Library and Museum in Montgomery, Ala., for Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Parks is just one of the heroes that he has had the honor to meet, he said. Meeting so many civil rights movement activists, Gilliard said, was an exceptional opportunity because they won't be around forever. Gillard came to the University as a frustrated athlete. "Irealized I wouldn't be a pro athlete, but I always had an ability to write," Gilliard said. He is excited to come back to the University and wants to set an example, which he never had when going to school, he said. "We all need role models," Gilliard said. "We all need to understand that everyone gains from a diversified work force." — Edited by Neil Mulka ALPHA THIS WEEK ON CAMPUS NOVEMBER 11, 2004 STUDENT SENATE Which break are you?

He crossed this line when he decided to abolish the long-standing "Border War" tradition. Now he continues to walk further on the other side of that line with his back turned toward Campanile hill. Last week Perkins, along with associate athletics director Jim Marchiony and football coach Mark Mangino, defended their construction plans for a new facility solely for the football team. The building will be constructed behind the MegaVision at the base of the Campanile hill. According to the Athletics Department, the facility will be two stories tall. It won't quite block out the sun, but say goodbye to the beautiful view of the Campanile. Yes, the rising football program should have its own facility for training and meetings closer to the stadium than the Anschutz Sports Pavilion on the other side of campus. The football team does have a history of success that dates back more than 100 years. In fact, the football team still holds several series leads over other traditional football powerhouse universities, including Kansas State and Colorado. This historical success makes the football program another tradition at the University of Kansas. And Perkins has done a great job for the athletics department by raising money and treating every sport equally, but right now, though, he is placing the football tradition over other traditions that are just as important. The new building will affect two long-standing traditions: the graduation walk down the hill and the scenic view of Campanile hill. Few schools have a graduation ceremony like walking down the hill. As Kansan sports columnist Ryan Greene wrote last week, graduates will either have to walk around the construction or through the building to get to the football field. The open-stadium view of Campanile hill is also a truly unique setting for any athletic event. Another drawback: The facility will also affect the hub of pre-game tailgating. Coach Mangino defended the facility by referring to the MegaVision that already partially blocks the view. However, the majority of the fans in the stadium can see beyond the screen to their fellow fans tossing footballs or just lying on the grassy hill. One tradition should not be placed before another. Perkins told the Lawrence Journal-World, "We recognize the time-honored graduation traditions of the University of Kansas at Memorial Stadium; we will make decisions regarding proposed facility's location with thoughtful consideration of those traditions and the best interests of the University." Well, who will he consult regarding these time-honored traditions? Will he talk to alumni, who no longer attend the University, or fellow athletics directors or friends who, like yourself, never attended this University? Talk to us, Lew. Talk to the student body at the University of Kansas. The University could have the nation's wealthiest athletic department and best football team for the next 100 years, but none of that will matter without our support. Students represent the heart of the University's present and future. You already abolished one great tradition without our consent. For once, put down the checkbook and just listen to us.

President Bush wants to try and get Democrats to buy into his agenda for the next four year, I want to try and get Democrats on this campus to understand how it all went so wrong. STEVE SPEAKS I believe in the system of checks and balances, and even though I normally agree with the Republicans, I must admit feeling somewhat uncomfortable with what could be unchecked power for the GOP in the capitol. It's been 10 years of frustrating elections for the Dems who still haven't been able to wrestle away power in the Legislature and just completed a catastrophic election. The trend will continue so long as Democrats avoid the issues and stick to the same tired and untrue tactics to discredit its opposition. A recent KU grad sent me this quote from The Wall Street Journal that ran last week, which seems to sum up exactly what the left's problems are: STEVE STLAKS "This is a Democratic Party in which nostalgia for tradition is too often considered racism, opposition to gay marriage is bigotry, misgiving about abortion is misogyny, Christian fundamentalism is like Islamic fundamentalism, discussion about gender roles is sexism, and confidence in America's global purpose is cultural imperialism. To put it mildly, this is not the values system to which most Americans adhere." STEVE VOCKRODT svockrodt@kansan.com As one who leans to the right, I've been told I'm a racist redneck and been pigeonholed into just about all the terms The Wall Street Journal rattled off. All of that was news to me, because I'm not any of those, even though I'm constantly reminded that I am. And now that the election is over, I'm told I am among 59.6 million people who must be stupid, for no other reason than they voted for George W. Bush. Being conservative in Lawrence teaches me to be thick-skinned, to the negative rhetorical approach from the left. It hardly affects me. It seems to have hardly affected many others, as well. Something mobilized 10 million extra people to vote for Bush this year as opposed to 2000. For one thing, the whole bit about Bush being stupid must come to an end. Repeating that mantra, not only alienates sensible people on the fence as election day nears, but it's further perpetuating an untruth. Tom Brokaw broke the news to John Kerry that his IQ was about equal to Bush's, if not even less. Criticizing Bush's intelligence does for the left what a rat running in a cage does for its progress in moving forward. It's critically important for the Democrats to find a different outlet to plug their message. MTV is not and cannot be the place to mobilize people. Most MTV viewers are watching the channel to be pacified by reality television and gossip news, and are not ready to be indoctrinated into a political ideology. The Democrats might pick up a vote here and there, but they're going to lose plenty, and further risk angering who would rather see how Ashlee Simpson is going to reconcile her wasted career in real time. Young voters proved their worth in this election. For a campaign that was so focused on getting them to register, only one in 10 people among the 18-24 year old demographic actually cast a vote. Kerry didn't even manage to corner the market among the demographic. True, he got the majority, but only got about 54 percent of them. It was the only age demographic he won. My guess is those higher age brackets are where the Oval Office is. A party that relies on MTV for its constituency gets what it deserves. I expect that Bush actually does try to bridge the gap between the nation's ideological divide. But if the Democrats want to have a more direct impact in his administration, they should have changed their tune two years ago. 2006 is their next chance. vockrodt is a Denver senior in journalism and political science. Homosexuals denied rights, liberty GUEST COMMENTARY GUEST COMMENTARY RYAN STRINGER opinion@kansan.com Imagine this: A female is in the hospital in critical condition after an accident, and her life partner wants to be there. As she approaches the room, the doctor stops her and says, "Sorry, you can't visit or make any decisions because your love is not like ours nor does it conform to our moral standards." I am not homosexual. So why would I care about homosexuals plight? I care because I am sympathetic and psychologically aware of my fellow creatures, and as furious and hurt as I am about America's active heterosexism. I can only assume it is much worse for those personally affected. Sound cruel? It is, and that is exactly what America is doing. In my experience with homosexuals, I have discovered one constant: They are no different than anyone else. Like all people, they have feelings, thoughts, likes, dislikes, dreams, goals, insecurities, problems, frustrations and fears. Because of the religious undercurrent and active gender roles in our culture, homosexuals face stigma, alienation, scapegoating and a constant fear of hate crimes and social badgering, in addition to what "normal" people experience. THU In the last presidential debate, President Bush said America treated all people with "dignity" and "tolerance," yet he actively supports a ban on gay marriage, and as 11 states callously demonstrated, much of the population did, too. This is not dignity nor tolerance. This is an affirmation that homosexuals are not worthy of either, and therefore should be discriminated against and deprived of rights, which is not the ideology America professes. THUF CC Old bei up CONTIN From what I have been told, America is about humanity, liberty, equal rights and the pursuit of happi- Bush and those like him can claim they don't hate or discriminate against homosexuals, but their actions make a mockery of these claims. Lau safety in Kα pare to oth pusee is dif gram Boan "I and ness. As long as we don't infringe upon these rights, we are free to do what we wish. Homosexual individuals are innocent of such infringement, but I cannot say the same for the religious right. Where in the constitution does it say a thing about strict Christian morality or religious definitions of families being enforced upon the public? The Constitution directly prohibits this enforcement in the first amendment, which is the real institution in need of defense, along with the rights and the pursuit of happiness of our citizens. There is only one question left: Who's next? Which trivially labeled group will be the next to receive discrimination from the despotic Christian right? Interracial marriage is a "biblically based" prohibition, according to some — is this ban next? A popular anti-gay marriage argument is this allowance will lead to other differing "lifestyles" wanting marriage. But where will the discrimination and deprivation of rights end once this holy-roller starts rolling? Stringer is an Otteva senior in psychology and philosophy.

He would be the first Hispanic ever to serve as the nation's top law enforcement officer. A Harvard educated attorney whose parents were migrant workers, the soft-spoken Gonzales would succeed Attorney General John Ashcroft, one of the most powerful and polarizing members of Bush's Cabinet. Gonzales' selection came just a day after the resignations of Ashcroft and Commerce Secretary Don Evans, a close friend of Bush. With more changes expected, White House officials said Bush intends to try to have successors in place when resignations are announced.

Ivory Coast evacuation follows civilian attacks ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast — France, the United States and other nations launched one of the largest evacuations of Africa's post-independence era yesterday, requisitioning commercial jets to fly out thousands of foreigners following attacks on civilians and peace-keeping troops. French soldiers in boats plucked some of their trapped citizens from the banks of Abidjan's lagoons. rounded up foreigners from their homes for evacuation as Ivory Coast's state TV alternately appealed for calm and for a mass uprising against the French, the country's former colonial rulers. Long convoyes sent out by the U.S. Embassy and other nations More Americans are expected in Ghana on Thursday. Only a few hundred Americans remain in Ivory Coast, many of them missionaries and aid workers. French President Jacques Chirac sternly demanded that President Laurent Gbagbo rein in thousands of his hard-line supporters, who brought him to power in 2000 and are now leading the anti-French street violence. Violence erupted Saturday when Ivory Coast warplanes killed nine French peacekeepers and an American aid worker in an airstrike on the rebel-held north in three days of government air attacks that violated a more than year-old cease-fire in the country's civil war. France wiped out the nation's new air force on the tarmac within hours. The retaliation sparked violence by loyalist youths, who took to the streets waving machetes, iron bars and clubs. Ivory Coast has been divided between rebel north and loyalist south since civil war broke out in 2002. The Associated Press Attend a Free MOCK MCAT class The Princeton Review - U. of Kansas 901 S.

After hearing disgruntled comments from students and faculty at the forum and throughout the year, commission members said they would make changes. "With the demand for spaces and the number of spaces on campus, we have a problem." said Tom Mulinazzi, professor of engineering and commission chairman. Besides about 20 people who came to the forum with concerns, the commission received 31 pages of e-mail comments. Mulinazzi outlined what he said were the four major parking problems that came from the e-mails; safety concerns of parking at GSP-Corbin Hall; overflow of parking behind JRP and Carruth-O'Leary Halls; structure and payment method for Mississippi Street parking garage fees: and overselling. There are 17,325 parking permits sold on campus, but 10,797 permit spaces, Mulinazzi said. Permits are oversold because some students and faculty are only on campus certain days and the concern is where to build the additional 6,500 spaces, he said. Another issue raised by various audience members was the possibility of increasing Park and Ride lots. The Lied Center parking lot is the only lot that caters to Park and Ride. Anton Bengtson, Salina sophomore and student senator on the Transportation Board, said some members of his board would be glad to work out possible solutions with Park and Ride. If a plan to make another Park and Ride lot came up, some space on West Campus might be considered, said Donna Hultine, director of parking services and commission member. The Parking Department has hired a parking consultant to advise which courses of action should be considered to improve parking, Mulinazzi said. The commission is waiting on the consultant's report to determine further action, he said. - Edited by Jon Ralston Picture perfect Sunlight bounces off the bottom of clouds to create green, yellow and blue streaks at 6 p.m. Tuesday as seen from the Art and Design Building.

Downs, the No.14 ranked player by rivals.com, and Chalmers, No. 12, committed in May.Wright,the No. 2 small forward in the country, committed on Sept.9. "It's fairly anticlimactic because we received commitments some time ago, but it is a big day for us," Kansas coach Bill Self said. "I've never recruited a class this highly rated." Self said he expected all three of these players to have an impact next year. "They have to have an impact next year because of what we are losing." Self said. "They all have potential to be excellent college players. Maturity would be the only thing standing in the way of them having a huge impact, and hopefully that will occur within the next 12 months." Micah Downs Self said this class and the current freshmen class would be his two most important classes at Kansas. Self said Downs was one of the most skilled players of all of the seniors in America. At 6-foot-8, Downs has good shooting range and can put the ball on the floor and create a shot. 1980 DOWNS SEE BASKETBALL ON PAGE 6B Brian Lewis/KANSAN are.co Official Mo of Kansas Athletics Jill Dorsey dives for the volleyball off a Baylor hit yesterday at the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. Kansas swept the match with scores of 30-25, 30-23, 30-26. 'Hawks declaw Bears BY BILL CROSS bcross@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER All four of Kansas' front-line starters notched nine or more kills as the volleyball team swept Baylor last night at Horesi Family Athletics Center in Lawrence. With two road contests approaching against top-ranked opponents — No. 3 Nebraska and No. 9 Texas — in the coming week, the team needed a victory to keep its tournament aspirations alive, coach Ray Bechard said. "We're going to fight until the very end," he said. "We've got five more fights in us." Bechard said the Jayhawks may have to win three of their last five matches to make their second consecutive postseason appearance. Barring an upset victory against the Cornhuskers or Longhorns during the next week, the Jayhawks will have to finish the season with three straight victories to meet that goal. Freshman opposite hitter Emily Brown, who had nine kills and one error against Baylor, said the team didn't want to look too far into the future. SEE BEARS ON PAGE 2B Fourth-string QB readies for start BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealeng@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER Kansas senior quarterback John Nielsen's younger brother, James, and one of his best friends, Robert, decided weeks ago they wanted to come out and see John's team play Texas. Little did they know this game would be John's first opportunity to start at the Division I level. Nielsen does not fit the image of a typical starting quarterback in the Big 12 Conference. He does not have a scholarship, but pays his way through school. "We're doing the loan thing, so we'll worry about that later." Nielsen said. The "we," Nielsen's referring to is himself and his parents. His dad, George, is a pipe layer for a construction company in San Diego, a job Nielson said his dad had been doing for "most of his life." "He works hard all day long," Nielsen said. Neither of his parents will be able to see their son's first start for the Jayhawks. Nielsen said his parents wanted to come see him start in Saturday's game, with airline prices realized it just would not work out. But that does not stop Nielsen from looking forward to this game. The last time he played regularly was as a sophomore at Palomar Community College in California, where he split time with another quarterback. Nielsen had a good opportunity to start at Palomar, but he was injured early in his career. Besides being a quarterback, he was also the team's holder, and had his throwing hand kicked while holding the ball for the field goal kicker. "He was out of commission for a couple of weeks," said Palomar coach Joe Early. "He was able to fight back and get some playing time, however." Nielsen, who has the highest G.P.A. on the team according to Early, is excited for the opportunity to start, especially with old coaches, friends and teammates able to watch the nationally televised game. "We'll be able to watch a little bit of it and cheer him on," Early said. "Hopefully he'll bring Kansas a victory." After practice yesterday, Nielsen could not help but be a little bit proud to have the opportunity to start against Texas. "It makes you feel pretty good," Nielsen said. "You have to take the role of the leader." Until last week, Nielsen spent most of his practice time with the practice squad. It was his job to take the role of the opposing quarterback and imitate him so Kansas' defense would be prepared for the game. What quarterback was the toughest for Nielsen to imitate? Texas Tech's Sonny Cumble, Nielsen said. When playing that role, he said he often felt as though he was throwing a hundred passes in a practice session. passes in a p. 307 Last week, however, Nielsen caught a break. After junior Brian Luke's disappointing performance against Iowa State, Nielsen was able to take some reps with the first team offense in practice, as the designated reserve. Even in that role, however, he said he still felt rusty coming into the game. This week, however, coaches have focused on getting Nielsen prepared to be the starter. "It feels really good, especially coming off of last week," Nielsen said. "I felt a little rusty." Coach Mark Mangino said Nielsen has had good practices so far week. He said he was pleased with the progress that Nielsen had made. "One of the things that had impressed our staff and our kids is that he very soiled," Mangino said. All that poise has garnered Nielsen the respect of his teammates. In addition, his loyalty to the program has brought him a scholarship starting in January. NCAA rules said a team can give a scholarship to a player who has been with the team for two years and not have it count against the total number of scholarships that can be offered "Back in mid to late September, I went to John and said you represent everything that's positive about our program and I told him I was going to put him on scholarship in January," Mangino said. "He's as loyal as you possibly can be." And do not expect Nielsen to just go out on the field and take snaps to get through the game — he really thinks the team can win. "I'm getting more and more comfortable every day." Nielsen said. "We have a pretty good game plan. We have some things that are looking pretty good." With people across the nation watching his game on TV and a couple of special people in the stands, he'll have something extra to play for. Edited by Ashley Doyle WOMEN'S BASKETBALL First recruits sign letters with coach Kansas women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson signed her first two players of the recruiting season, Ivana Eatiae and Jennifer Orgas, to national letters of intent yesterday. "With these first two signings, we've filled two of our most important needs, in a point guard and a post player," Henrickson said in a release. "Ivana is a point guard who brings great playmaking ability and a tremendous basketball I.Q. Jen will play the post and has a fantastic physical upside."

Gruber writes the foreword for the Juhavskis /Eatia averaged 13 points and seven assists while playing in Zrenjanin, Serbia and Montenegro, last year. She has played in the Serbia and Montenegro Junior National and National Team programs. /Eatiae, a 5-foot-8 point guard, will play her senior high school season at Mt. de Chantal Academy in Wheeling, W.Va. As a junior, Orgas posted averages of 12.8 points and seven rebounds per game while shooting just under 50 percent from the field and 80 percent from the free-throw line. She earned second-team all-state honors and was named to the state all-tournament team. Orgas, a 6-foot-2 forward, is a senior this season at Skutt Catholic High School in Omaha, Neb., and will add needed size to the Jayhawk depth chart. Henrickson expects to sign two more players before the early signing period ends on Nov. 17.

Each Thursday, Kansan sportswriter Shane Kucera sits with a student athlete and discusses issues beyond the playing field. This year Gruber, a journalism major, wants to finish in the top 16 at the NCAA Championships and earn All-American honors. This would complete a dominant collegiate career that already includes Academic All-Big 12 first-team honors, Big 12 Swimmer of the Month honors and Newcomer of the Year at Kansas honors. She also holds records at the University in the butterfly and freestyle events. Senior Amy Gruber, a leader on the Kansas swimming team, has compiled an extensive list of awards and accomplishments in her years at the University of Kansas. This week Amy Gruber talks about swimming and more: Q: How is it being on the swimming team at Kansas? A: It's probably one of the best things I've done in my whole entire life, for sure. It's hard work — every sport is — but it's fun to be a part of something that means so much to you. Q: Would you like to pursue a career with swimming? A: You can't really go pro with swimming, but I'd like to be involved in some aspect of swimming. I don't really want to be a coach. I'd like to do some sort of offset thing with swimming. Q: Does it bother you to get into a cold nool everyday? A: Yes! At six o'clock in the morning it's a little tough to get yourself in the pool, but you kind of zone out. It is hard — I'm not really a fan of cold water. I started swimming in the summers when I was 5 and year-round since I was 7, so I've been doing it for a long time. Q: Do you have time to go out much? Q: What are your personal goals for this season? A: No. We do in the offseason and we get really excited, but during the season we have practice on Saturday morning and we're just worn out during the week, so it's kinda hard to get your body going when the couch is so comfortable. SEE SWIMMER ON PAGE 2B A: I really want to just do everything I can, since it's my last year of swimming, and just give 100 percent, and end on a good note — just knowing I did everything I could.

Soccer team to face Creighton at home The Jayhawks will play Creighton (9-7-4), who earned an automatic bid after defeating Drake in the Missouri Valley Conference tournament. The game is scheduled to start at 2 p.m. tomorrow at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex. This weekend the Kansas women's soccer team will play host for the first- and second-round games of the NCAA tournament. "I think that it is huge," coach Mark Francis said. "We don't have to travel on Thursday and the players get to sleep in their own beds. Hopefully we will get some people out at the game supporting us and that could be a really big boost for the players." The two teams faced each other in exhibition play earlier this season, with Kansas winning 6-1. In the other game, Nebraska (12-8-0) will play Oral Roberts (14-5-1), the Mid-Continental Conference Champions, at 11:30 a.m. The winners of the two games will face each other Sunday at 1 p.m. Tickets are $7 for adults, $3 for students and senior citizens and $1 for children under 5. They can be purchased at kuathletics.com or from the KU Ticket Office, 1651 Naismith Drive, room 108. Jason Elmquist 2B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN INSIDE SPORTS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2004 SPORTS COMMENTARY --- KELLIS ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com Wanted: Kansas soccer fans When the Kansas women's soccer team takes on Creighton at approximately 2 p.m. tomorrow at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex, the biggest crowd of the year needs to be there to cheer the team on. The Jayhawks played eight home games this season and never drew more than 1,000 fans to a game. That's a horrible stat, considering these Jayhawks tied for the Big 12 Conference regular season championship and earned the No. 8 seed in the 2004 NCAA Soccer Tournament. If the soccer selection committee seeded teams the same way the NCAA does it for the men's basketball tournament, Kansas' placement would translate into a No. 2 seed. And the soccer team's high seed comes with home-field advantage. If the NCAA allowed the Jayhawk basketball team to host a subregional at Allen Fieldhouse, students would skip class for a week camping out for $100 tickets. This group of women has played magnificently this season, and the team deserves our support. Coach Mark Francis was named Big 12 Coach of the Year, four players were All-Big 12 first team selections and two more were on the second team. It's OK if you haven't been to a game this year. It doesn't matter if you don't think soccer is a real sport. I won't even chastise those of you who boo soccer updates at football games. But die-hard Kansas sports fans need to figure out a way to attend this weekend's soccer games and give the team the best home-field advantage possible. If Kansas defeats Creighton and Nebraska defeats Oral Roberts, the team will need all the support it can get for Sunday's 1 p.m. game, because there could be a large number of them coming to town for the game. The Jayhawk Soccer Complex is conveniently located only 100 yards from Oliver and Naismith halls.Senior goalkeeper Meghan Miller said she got chills on senior day playing in front of only 850 fans. Think how motivated the team will be in front of 1,500 or even 2,000 fans. At the Big 12 Tournament, a group of 15 Texas fans calling themselves "The Hooligans" were decked out in burnt orange to cheer their Longhorns on against Kansas, and they actually impacted the game. The group memorized Kansas' roster, and was so loud and annoying in cheering its team and yelling at Kansas players that, at times, you couldn't hear the person sitting next to you. I'm not suggesting that anyone go that far to support our soccer team, but if a handful of dedicated students can influence a Big 12 Tournament game, think what a couple thousand of us could do to help the cause in an NCAA Tournament game.

The Longhorns' explosiveness was evident last weekend when they rallied from a 35-7 deficit to beat Oklahoma State 56-35. The victory was the biggest recovery in school history. "You have to be impressed with the comeback against Oklahoma State, as they came roaring back to win," Kansas coach Mark Mangino said. PARKS Senior running back Cedric Benson rushed for 141 yards in that contest, scoring five touchdowns. He averages 159.8 yards per game, good for fourth, in the nation. This season he has rushed for 100 yards or more in eight of the Longhorns' nine games. BENSON "He's just a powerful guy who has really quick feet," Mangino said. "He really can find a seam and change direction." The Longhorns' sophomore quarterback Vince Young is dangerous, with the arm to throw deep and the legs to rush for vards if he is in trouble. Young is second behind Benson in rushing yards for Texas this year with 680, including eight touchdowns. YOUNG He has completed 60 percent of his passes for 1,249 yards with 10 touchdowns. At. 6 feet. 225. Benson is a running back who has not gotten a lot of attention nationally this season, but on the field he is difficult to miss. pounds, Benson is able to run through defenders to gain extra yards. He averages 5.9 yards per carry. "His change of direction for a guy his size is remarkable." Mangino said. "He gets his pads down and he is never tackled going backwards," Mangino said. "When he gets tackled he's always going forward, getting an extra vard or two." Benson ranks high in many of Texas' all-time rushing categories. He is second behind Ricky Williams in career rushing yards at Texas and 10 touchdowns shy of tying Williams in rushing touchdowns. Williams won the Heisman trophy in 1998. As the Kansas defense prepares for Texas, it prepares for the No.1 rushing offense in the Big 12. Benson is one of only 10 collegiate running backs of all time to rush for more than 5,000 yards in their careers. This is not the first solid running back the Jayhawks have faced this season. Freshman Adrian Peterson of Oklahoma rushed for more than 200 yards against Kansas earlier this season. "You can definitely compare him to an Adrian Peterson; he runs real hard, he just finds his way and breaks tackles. We just have to wrap him up and play downhill," safety Tony Stubbs said. Edited by Janette Crawford SWIMMER: Nervous to enter real world, change routine CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Q: Now that you're in your fourth year, what has been the best part of attending Kansas? A: I'd definitely have to say being on the swim team, just because it's such a big part of your life, and it's just always an amazing feeling that you're a student athlete and a Jayhawk and you get to represent this awesome place. Q: If you could start college over, what would you do differently? A: I might decide on my major a little sooner — I didn't decide on my major until my junior year. I'm a very indecisive person and I didn't know what I wanted to do. Q: How was it growing up in Arkansas? A: It was great. It's very different than everywhere else; Arkansas is kind of its own little place, and my town was terribly small; I only graduated with 30 kids in my class. It was kinda like you're from and you say Arkansas, people are like 'Bill Clinton!' And I'm just like 'yeah, you're right." "Every time I'm in a class they ask you where Amy Gruber Senior swimmer everyone knew everything and you didn't just know everyone from 9th to 12th grade, but you knew something about them. Q: Are you ever given a hard time about being from Arkansas? Clinton!' And I'm just like 'yeah you're right.' I don't have a bad accent like most people down south, but I get a hard time for that a lot, too. A: Oh yeah, all the time. Every time I'm in a class they ask you where you're from and you say Arkansas, people are like 'Bill Q: Are you nervous about graduating, or, with another year, do you try not to think about it? A: I kinda try not to think about it, but yeah, I'm definitely nervous to go out into the real world and just not have swimming as a structure. It's going to be really different to change lifestyles and get out of the routine of just eating, sleeping, and swimming. O: What do you plan to do after college? A: I don't really know, hopefully get a job. I still have a year of school left, so I'm just working on finishing school and then we'll see. Kucera is an Omaha, Neb., senior in journalism. BEARS: Volleyball sweeps Baylor, tied for sixth in Big 12 CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B "We try not to think about that," she said of the tournament. "We just know we need to win now." The Jayhawks were primed to do that in game one last night, as they jumped out to a 23-13 lead. Junior middle blocker Josi Lima had three kills and a service ace early in the set, but the Bears answered with a run fueled by junior settter Emily Huston's serving. With the score 24-23, Lima reeled off three more kills to end the game 50-25. "We took a nap at the end of game one," Bechard said. "When they picked up their game a little, we didn't." Both offenses played better in the second set, Kansas barely led 19-18. Four Kansas players notched kills at the end of the match, and the Baylor defense was never able to adjust. The Jayhawks had just two hitting errors in the game. "When everybody's playing together, it's a lot of fun," Brown said. Kansas won game two, 30-23. blocks and block assists. Kansas' offensive balance continued into game three. Lima again led the way with seven kills, including one that gave her team a 14-13 lead. The Jayhawks would not trail again. They sealed the match with the 30-26 victory. Lima finished with 18 kills, a match high, and also led the team in solo Lima said the match had extra significance for her because she played with Baylor junior middle blocker Adeline Meira in Brazilian club play before coming to Kansas. Meira had 13 kills and seven blocks when Baylor defeated Kansas earlier in the season. "There were certain areas of the court we wanted to find with Josi, and after the first game, we did a good job of that," Bechard said. Beachard said Lima drew motivation from that memory. "Meira got us pretty good down there, and Josi was pretty set on setting that straight," he said. Meira had three kills and three blocks last night. Lima credited her performance to the passing of junior setter Andi Rozum, who had a match-high 49 assists. "Some games, we connect more than in others," Lima said. "Today, we had a very good connection." Last night's victory moves Kansas into a tie for sixth place in the conference. The volleyball team added depth at the front line positions with the signings of two high school seniors yesterday. Volleyball notes Indianalo, Neb., signed national letters of intent to play with coach Ray Bechard and the Jayhawks. Martincich will add depth at setter, a position that two upperclassmen currently occupy. Rozum is the starter and will likely start next season. Backup Ashley Bechard is graduating. Martinicich was a member of the 2004 MoKan All-Star team and led her high school, Bishop Miege, to three consecutive state championships. "She has unbelievable leadership skills and really understands the flow of the game," Bechard said. "She's one of the best setters in the country, and she happened to live 30 minutes away. We think she's obviously the setter of the future here." Noyes will come in hoping to replace middle blocker Ashley Michaels and outside hitter Lindsey Morris, both of whom will graduate. She will compete with freshmen Caitlin Mahoney and Kristin Buehler for Michaels' vacated starting spot. Noyes was named to the Nebraska all-state team each of the last two years. "Savannah has good size, excellent foot speed and a great mentality that will put her in the mix right away," Bechard said. "She's a Big 12-type athlete."

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2004 SPORTS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 3B Fieldhouse crowd awes freshmen with 'ooh's, 'ahh's BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANANAN SPORTWRITER After stepping onto James Naismith court in Allen Fieldhouse for pregame warm-ups, Kansas freshman guard Alex Galindo realized he had the support of the crowd. N very day. For the three consecutive practice shots Galindo made, enthusiastic fans in the student section cheered. For two straight missed shots, they let out a collective "Awh." "I love that kind of stuff," Galindo said. "My first glance of the place, I really love it." Galindo and the other four freshmen received a warm welcome from the crowd in their first exhibition game Sunday, a welcome that exceeded their expectations for their first home game. Galindo couldn't help but crack a smile. After the five practice shots, he had found a home in the fieldhouse. "Once I walked out here, I felt the crowd," freshman guard Russell Robinson said before a practice at the fieldhouse. "I was kind of surprised that everybody came out for an exhibition game." In only three months at the University, the freshmen have already been exposed to numerous new experiences. In addition to adjusting to a new lifestyle at college, they have played exhibition games in Canada, dealt with the intensity of coach Bill Self's conditioning boot camp and faced the rigors of everyday practice. "It was a shock to see the fans so into it like that," Robinson said. "It was great. I just felt really good about everything and felt a lot more comfortable." Despite all these changes, the freshmen were most amazed by the support they received at their first game in the fieldhouse. Galindo said the loudest crowd he had played in front of before Sunday was a game he participated in for the 13-year-old Puerto Rican National team, but that even those supporters couldn't compare to Kansas fans. "I've never had that experience before — people actually saying stuff when I shoot," Galindo said. "It was really fun. I wish I would have made at least one in the game, but I guess it didn't happen." Because of the strong senior class — forward Wayne Simien and guards Aaron Miles, Mike Lee and Keith Langford — the freshmen will have the opportunity to make a definite impact on this year's team, but they won't have to carry it. Lee said he was impressed with the freshmen's ability to willingly step into supporting positions on the team. "We don't need them to — that's the good thing." Miles said. "They don't speak of just wanting to be a star and wanting to come in and do that. If they have a big night, that's a plus." "I think they're doing a good job of adjusting right now," Lee said. "Everybody's playing their role." — Edited by Marissa Stephenson Fast, Delivery or Carry-out. We Deliver the Latest! 841-5000 1445 W 23RD ST. Next to Jock's Nitch "Hawk Zone" Cash or Credit.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2004 POLICY COMMITTEE ON DEFENSE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 9 BASKETBALL: Players sign commitment CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B "He is about as fun to watch as any player out there because he just knows how to play." Self said. "He's tall. He's skilled. He can block shots, can rebound." "With all of the great players and winning tradition, they're always in the tournament," Downs said. "It is just a great place to play college basketball." Downs said it was Kansas' tradition that lured him to the school. Downs said he was well aware that Self wanted him to have an immediate impact next season. "Kansas is losing four seniors, and if J.R. leaves, I have a great chance to get valuable minutes next season." Downs said. He said he committed in May because he didn't want to have to worry about choosing a school during his senior season. He averaged 19.7 points, almost 12 rebounds and 3.6 assists as a junior at Juanita High School in Kirkland, Wash. He is the fourth-ranked shooting guard in the nation according to Rivals.com He chose Kansas over Duke, Gonzaga and Washington. Mario Chalmers A 6-1 point guard from A 6-1 poi Anchorage, Alaska, Chalmers is the top-rated player at his position by Rivals.com. Chalmers' father, Ronnie Chalmers, is the coach of PETER MILLER his son's high school team and said Mario had been a fan of Self since Self coached at Illinois. CHALMERS He added that Self was one of the biggest reasons that his son chose Kansas. "Coach Self just made him feel like one of the guys," Chalmers said. "He loved the family atmosphere at Kansas." Self said Mario Chalmers had a physique similar to current Kansas freshman guard Russell Robinson, with long arms and good athleticism. "He is a guy that you can throw lobs to." Self said. "He can play with the ball in his hands and score off of the catch." Like Downs, Ronnie Chalmers said Mario committed in May because the recruiting process was getting crazy. "He had many choices, and he didn't want to go through the '04-'05 season with this on his mind," Ronnie Chalmers said. Mario Chalmers and his father both attended Late Night in the Phog, when five jerseys with prospective recruits' names were waved around the court. "He doesn't get worked up about a lot of things, but you could see it in his eyes that night," his father said. "If he had any doubts, they were erased that night." Self said next year, he would play both Chalmers and Robinson at the same time. But he said they could both handle the ball and play point. Chalmers averaged 23.2 points, six assists and almost six rebounds a game in his junior season at Bartlett High School. He chose Kansas over Arizona, North Carolina and Georgia Tech. Iulian Wright always wanted Wright, but after Self had stomach surgery last spring, he could not travel to Wright's hometown of Chicago to see him play. Self said the Jayhawks had WRIGHT Self said Kansas had to compete with other schools for Wright all summer, but when the Wrights allowed Self's staff into their home, it helped seal the deal. Self said it was the best home visit he ever had, because he had talked to Wright only one time before he went to his house for a visit. "Not very often do you go into home visits not expecting much and come away with everything," Self said. Self and assistant coach Curtis Townsend treated the visit like a normal one. When the coaches initially left Wright's house, neither thought the recruit would commit. But then about 15 minutes later, the Wrights phoned Self and told him to come back over. Self remembers going back over to the house and finding a happy family. "He (Julian) said 'I'm coming,' and I said 'That's great, where are we going.' Self said. "And he said I'm coming to Kansas,' and I basically said Julian, I know you are coming to Kansas, you already told me that you are coming to visit." And he said 'I am committing.' Wright is a 6-8 forward from Chicago Heights, Ill. Self said he was one of the best all-around players that he had ever signed. Wright has ball handling and post skills, but more importantly, he is a good passer, Self said. He could play four of the five positions for Kansas. "His shot is getting more consistent, but the thing about him is that he doesn't care about scoring." Self said. "He could dominate a game without shooting the basketball, and there aren't too many players out there like that." Downs, Chalmers and Wright met this summer at an NBA Players Association basketball camp. Downs said he and Chalmers were roommates and became friends. The three also got to see each other during Late Night at the Phog. With one scholarship left, Self said he was not in a hurry to sign anyone. "The one positive about having a scholarship is that you know what your team's needs are more than if you would have given it away back in September." Self said. — Edited by Jon Ralston Bad Lernen GmbH 944 Mass. 832-8228 Front Page NewsSports ArtsOpinionExtra Spicy Red Wine Sauce!!

PAGE 10A SPORTS KANSAN VOL. 115 ISSUE 60 Suspect identified in rape case www.kansan.com A suspect has been identified in a rape that reportedly happened last month in a University of Kansas residence hall, KU Public Safety Office officials said. The suspect, an 18-year-old male, was a guest of a resident at Ellsworth Hall when the rape reportedly happened Oct. 23. The 16-year-old woman who reported she was raped was also a guest of a resident in the hall, said Chris Keary, KU Public Safety Office assistant chief. The rape was reported to officials Tuesday. Keary said that "several things were going on that night and they ended up at the residence hall." He couldn't say what the "several things" were but both the man and woman had consumed alcohol off campus before the rape occurred. Police were unable to release the name of the 18-year-old man because an investigation is ongoing. Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said a rape had not been reported to officials in the hall. He said it is policy of the Department of Student Housing to encourage people to report incidents like rape to the police. Sgt. Bob Williams of KU Public Safety Office said in a previous interview that he did not know why there was more than two weeks between when the rape reportedly happened and when it was reported. He said he understood that the two people involved in the rape were acquaintances. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2004 Amanda O'Toole "Students ought to be careful about who they party with and should know who their friends are," Stoner said Kansas basketball player Aaron Miles broke up a fight between two women yesterday morning at about 1:15 a.m. in the parking lot of Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St. Miles stops altercation outside bar Sgt. Dan Ward, Lawrence Police Department, said that Erin Enneking, freshman-sophomore adviser at the University of Kansas, was talking to Miles in the parking lot when Jennifer Demby came from behind and struck her on the head. MILES PETER Ward said Miles then broke up the fight as a police car passed on its regular route. Emnking and Demby were acquaintances, Ward said. The two were arguing as they were leaving the establishment, he said. Enneking declined comment and attempts to contact Demby were unsuccessful. Because Miles was not directly involved in the fight, Kansas coach Bill Self said the player did not want to comment. Officers noticed the altercation and stopped. Demby was issued a notice to appear in municipal court Dec. 1. — Amanda O'Toole and Jesse Newell Liquor revenue grows Smoking ban doesn't hurt sales BY STEPHANE FARLEY sfarley@kansan.com KANSAN STaff WRITER Patrick Conroy is losing a business he's owned for 16 years and says it's because of the smoking ban. Conroy deals in games, not alcohol. He owns Crown Amusement, which supplies more than 60 percent of Lawrence's bars, restaurants and hotels with video games, trivia machines, juke boxes, pinball and cigarette machines. "They like to smoke and so, therefore. if they can't smoke, they don't sit down. And they don't play the machines, and I've been hurt really, really bad there." Conroy said of bar patrons. At the time of Lawrence's smoking ban, Crown Amusement had three fulltime and one part time employee. Now, the business has two employees, including Conroy. Conroy estimated his business had decreased by 44 percent since the ban went into effect on July 1. Attnough people associated with the bar and restaurant industry says business is down, numbers from the Kansas Department of Revenue show people are still coming and there has not been a decrease in the amount of alcohol sold — there is actually a 0.9 percent increase in the amount of liquor being sold in Lawrence, according to the KDOR. Michael Fox, associate professor in the Department of Health Policy and Management at the University of Kansas Medical Center, received a summary of the report from KDOR. According to the summary the average tax collected on all drinks sold in bars and restaurants in Lawrence in 2004 totals $178,199 — not including alcohol sold in liquor stores. A 10 percent tax is placed on every drink a bar or restaurant sells. In 2005, the average tax collected on drinks sold was $176,685, which increased 8.3 percent from the $163,171 collected in 2002. However, the 2002 amount is taken from August, September and October. The average tax collected in 2003 and 2004 only includes August and September. The numbers show there has been no dip in business, Fox said. "The tax numbers don't lie," Fox said. "This isn't as catastrophic an event as businesses are making it out to be." Fox said the smoking ban was more of a health issue, than an economic issue. Café Lauren Goger, Newton freshman, left, and Kelly Rawlings of The Underground staff, ring up students' food purchases during the lunch hour Wednesday at The Underground in Wescoe Hall.

"It's a lot closer where you don't have to go eat at the dining hall. Crustano's to me is way better. than Summit Subs. The only thing I dislike is the long lines."

BY LAURA FRANCOVIGLIA lfrancoviglia@kansan.com Research Library Richard Clement, head of special collections at Spencer Wescoe eatery draws crowd The Underground's success is all about location. Cindy Heilman, Council Grove freshman, said she took advantage of the food court's central position in the basement of Wescoe Hall. "In between-class you can just come here and eat," Heilman said. The Underground, the newly remodeled Wescoe Terrace, draws thousands of students every day, but administrators are working to make it a better place to eat. They say healthier food choices, faster lines and a repaired floor could be in the establishment's the future. The Underground opened seven weeks ago and has had twice as many customers per day as Wesco Terrace, said Michael Myers, assistant director of retail of KU Memorial Unions. He said more than 3,000 customers ate at The Underground every day. "Over 50 percent of business has been devoted to Chick-fil-a." Myers said.

The three-year-old KU United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) started with two members in August and now has 24. Banerjee, Calcutta, India, graduate research assistant in the Bureau of Child Research, said that many students in the group graduated last year and this year they had to rebuild. "The group has been moving ahead with a lot of energy and strength," said UNICEF president, Rashida Banerjee. Sara Zafar, Wichita senior and vice president of UNICEF, has been a member since the beginning. "This is the first year it's been so coordinated in recruiting new members," said Zafar, who is also an editorial columnist for The University Daily Kansan. The group has gone through many changes, she said. HOW TO DONATE TO KU UNICEF: Contact kuunicef@kuu.edu or visit www.ku.uo/kuunicef UNICEF is a not-for-profit international program that started in 1946 to provide aid to children victims of World War II.

All proceeds from fundraisers go directly to UNICEF and then to children in need around the world. This year's KU UNICEF relief campaign will help children displaced by the conflict in Darfur, Sudan.

And this haircut couldn't wait. "I just wanted a change. Right at that moment. There was no time to go to a salon," the Kansas City, Mo., senior says. So Wright took matters into her own hands — literally — and cut her hair herself. "I'm a little bit of a thrill-seeker. And it was kind of exciting." a little bit of a thrill-seeker. And it was kind of Wright has been trimmed her hair another four or five times in the past several years and finds the experience liberating. Aaron Caldwell, Dallas sophomore, often trims his hair in lieu of dealing with thinking ahead enough to schedule appointments. And Carlie Wagner, Springfield, Mo., senior, just got tired of paying for haircuts she didn't like. Skipping the salon or barber is especially common among college students on a budget, says Laurie Punches, stylist and author of How to Simply Cut Hair. Cutting your own hair saves money and gives you more control of your look. Better yet, Punches says everyone can learn to do it. "Hair cutting is practical, it's not theoretical," she says. "And there's nothing you can't do yourself." Get the tools Get the tools If you plan to do a decent job, using your desk scissors on your hair isn't the best idea. You need sharp scissors. best idea. You need sharp scissors, preferably a pair you use only on hair. Women should also purchase a comb marked in inches, and four to five clips or clamps to section the hair. Men should get an electric shaving razor with a trimming edge. These supplies cost money, but remember the long-term savings and suck it up. CHEYENNE Photo illustration by Joshua Kendall Tag team it Tag team it When it comes to hair cutting, two heads are better than one. The best idea is to find a partner who will cut your hair and vice versa, Punches says. You can use a mirror to do it alone, but seeing the whole picture is difficult. The chance of error goes down when the person cutting can directly see the hair. Think Think before you get scissor-happy, you need to ask yourself an important question: Am I drunk? Most people who mess up their hair and need it fixed are intoxicated when it happens, says Cora Carey, stylist at Head Rush, 622 W $12^{th}$ St. The people who go to Carey for a hair fix usually were either dared while drunk or thought it would be funny. But they aren't laughing the next day, Carey says. Prep yourself It is easiest to cut women's hair when the hair is wet, but matters less with men who are just trimming. Use your best judgment. In any case, take a moment to think about what you want. Are you interested in layers? What length looks good with your face Prep yourself What length looks good with an oval shape? Punches recommends styles that make an oval shape around the face for women. For example, a person with a square jaw shouldn't have chin-length hair. Go to visual-makeover.com to see what hair style will work best with your face shape. The main objective here is to put thought into the style you want and the approach you are going to take. Do it Do it Some styles are easier to create than others. Styles that are edgy, urban and choppy don't require symmetry and are therefore easier to do on your own, Carey says. And curly or wavy hair hides errors best. For sleeker cuts, section the hair and take it one section at a time. Check for evenness continuously and you'll avoid obvious problems. Punches' book details a step-by-step approach to most basic haircuts for women. most basic haircuts for women. For short haircuts, use the electric trimmer/buzzer like an orange peel, from the bottom to the top of the head covering all areas. You should go over the whole head at least twice on the same setting to make sure you didn't miss any spots. miss any spots. If the thought of cutting hair scares you, don't do it. Cutting your own hair may save money, but if you like being taken care of by a professional, it's understandable. Hair isn't like clothes that you can take on and off, Punches says. So it may be worth the money to have a professional maintain it. Even Wright and Caldwell don't exclusively cut their own hair. Both have a professional trim on occasion. But if you are careful, there's no reason not to try cutting your own mane. Hey, it's not like it won't grow back.

Before you make the mistake of drinking from the wrong water glass or eating your Chicken Marseilles with your hands, study this guide to etiquette for formal dinners. ners. If you're going to host a dinner event, start your party sometime after 8 p.m. This will give you enough time to prepare, and your guests enough time to primp. A common etiquette misconception is to put our napkins in our laps immediately upon sitting down at the table, Charlotte Ford, author of $20^{th}$ Century Etiquette says that you should put your napkin on your lap only after the host does so. If you make a mistake and put it in your lap right away, don't sweat it. It's probable that no one will notice. notice. One of the more intimidating aspects of a formal dinner is the plethora of silverware placed in front of you. The secret is to work from the outside in. It's almost fool-proof, and you'll impress your host and all of the other guests with your flatware know-how. Kate Spade, in her etiquette guide, Manners, says if you forget where to begin, just follow your host. Although most of us are used to eating in between classes and in the car, when you're at a dinner party it is important to eat slowly and enjoy the food. After all, a good meal comes few and far between for most of us, so why not savor the moment? so why not savor the moment. At many dinner parties wine is served as a complement to the meal. When you're filling up your guests' glasses, fill them only a third of the way. This is so your guests don't end up passing out before dessert. When drinking her merlot or chardonnay, always hold the glass by the stem. If you hold it by the bulb you'll warm the chardonnay, which is much better when served cold. If you hold your red wine by the bulb, you won't be able to see the color of the wine. Also, holding it by the stem allows the glass to make that lovely tinkling sound when you touch glasses with other guests. lasses with other guests. When the meal is over, it is important not to overstay your welcome. Make sure to say goodnight at a decent hour so your host will have a sufficient amount of time to clean up and get to bed. Last, follow this rule of thumb: Don't always be a guest and never a host. Trade off hosting responsibilities with a group of people so that one person isn't constantly doing all the work. Just remember the most important thing is to have fun and keep your guests entertained. Don't worry if you don't do everything perfectly, just be aware of your manners and things will start coming naturally!

He recallstaking pictures of liberated concentration camps. "It was unbelievable," Frank says. "I saw bodies stacked in rooms like cardboard. You could see the bones left over in the cremation rooms. There was spilled blood all over the walls. You just had to see it to believe it." Frank and another veteran, Richard Hewitt, will give a presentation about fighting in World War II from 2:30 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 14, at the Lawrence Public Library auditorium.

Pattie Johnston, senior outreach coordishipped in fighter pilot with the 78th fighter group in Duxford, England, but says that he doesn't see himself as a real hero. He says his motivation behind sharing his experience is to tell people about the guys that flew with him and never made it back to enjoy being a veteran, who he calls "the real heroes of war." nator at the Lawrence Public Library, has organized a presentation as an extension of the Veterans History Project through the Library of Congress featuring Frank and Hewitt. She says the stories of the men that Hewitt flew with really stay with you. Johnston says that each generation says the previous one is unimportant. She says that people need to realize what these young men did at the age of current college students are now. Frank and Hewitt both say that the world is a lot different now and the mentality of the country and our enemies have both changed. We fought for the freedoms we enjoy, says Hewitt, who has published a book entitled Target of Opportunity, Tales and Contrails of the Second World War, available at the public library, and the Raven bookstore at 6 E. 7th St. He says that now we are fighting for those freedoms all over again in a different world. Hewitt says if you think about what the United States has been going through for the last 20 years, we have essentially been in World War III against terrorism. Hewitt says the difference is they were fighting against an enemy who they could identify. Frank says there was no dissension back then. He says it is hard for him to imagine how we feel at our age, but says that you just have to do the right thing. "We were attacked at Pearl Harbor, and the country was completely united," Frank says. He says that the country was sure of what they were doing, and everyone shared a sense of purpose. When Hewitt answers questions about his experiences, he says that people always ask him if he was scared. But Hewitt says that he never really thought about fear; they just wanted to get the job done. He says that 16 million people went over there, and "Everyone was ready and willing, and those who were able went — we all had one objective and that was to win," he says. This is obviously something that the veterans of our generation will not get to enjoy. Frank says it is important to support the soldiers fighting overseas and do what needs to be done, but he hopes we get out of Iraq soon. Nov. 11 celebrates of everyone who has made sacrifices in the armed forces, but was not officially known as Veterans Day until 1954. Formerly Armistice Day, Nov. 11 marked the signing of the Armistice and ceasefire of World War I, but was officially changed by President Eisenhower to Veterans Day. Frank says there are veterans in a lot of wars and they wanted to include all of them. Today is an important time to remember those who have fought for our freedoms in the past as well as those who are missing from us now.

What's your favorite part about being at KU? Dailey: I really enjoy the constant presence of curiosity and inquiry. I love the youthful spirit that is always present. Hanging with students as they search and grow is one of my favorite things. And this is without a doubt one of the most beautiful campuses in America. Adany: Living in Lawrence. I have a lot of friends here. 2. In approximately ten words or less, what do you think about reality TV? Adany: I despise it. I never watch it. Dailey:It ain't real. 3. Have you ever tried to get away with picking your nose in a public place? If so, when? Dailey: Yep! Just ask my partner. She would tell you, "More often than I really want to discuss." Dailey: Old Laurel and Hardy, and Charlie Chaplin flucks. 4. What's your favorite black and white movie? *Adany:* I can't think of a specific instance, but I'm sure I have before. Adany: I think it's called The Cabinet of Dr. Calagari. It's this 1920s silent film. It's extremely bizarre. 5. If you had to choose, would you rather have a mullet or a combover?

Samia Khan bitch + Moon By Jessi Crowder and Chris Tackett [I'm really hungry.] Q a I saw a hot black girl at a bar, but couldn't get the courage to approach her. I grew up in a white part of town and never had any black friends. Is there etiquette a white guy should obey when approaching a black girl? How do I find out if she dates white guys? -Luke, freshman Chris: I am not sure about any etiquette, and if anyone does, send it my way at bitch@kansan.com. Luke, when you hit on a redhead, do you think "I wonder if she dates blondes?" If so, you're an idiot. Sure, race is WAY too big of an issue in our society, but a hot black woman isn't going to bite you for saying "hey." She may not be in to you, but don't assume it's because you're white. Jessi: Treat the woman as you would any other—like a princess. And approach her regardless of skin color. How would you feel if the situation were switched? Even if she doesn't go for you, you'll give her a confidence boost, and you won't regret missing the opportunity. Q I've always thought I'd meet my future husband while at college, but I'm a man-less, fifth-year senior graduating in December and it's way depressing. I'm moving to a giant city when I graduate and I'm scared I'll never meet anyone. Am I overreacting? a Julie, fifth-year senior Chris: Thanks for the wake-up call, jerk. I'm in the same boat you are, except my boat is for seniors graduating in May who happen to be glad they aren't married. But I'm moving to a big city to work or panhandle, too. Chances are good there will be loads of young grads like us walkin' the streets looking for some lovin' in the same big city you'll be in! SCORE! But while you're still at KU, toss your marriage plans in the back seat and enjoy yourself. (i.e., get laid) Jessi: What's your hurry, Julie? Did you come to KU for an education or a man on your arm? If I were you, I'd be content with the fact that you're a woman who will soon have a degree. Besides, divorce rates are sky high, so why not finish up your education and become financially independent? You'll negate your chances of becoming another divorce statistic. Q Every time my boyfriend and I have sex, I want to cuddle afterward, but he just wants to eat.

Unlike many couples, they had waited more than a few dates. Abby's heart raced as Tim leaned in to meet her lips. And it was perfect. "I was floating that night," she recalls. "I was speechless." The kiss not only culminated a wonderful night together, it marked the third year of their relationship and the evening of their engagement. engagement. Now married for more than a year, Tim and Abby Kleier approached their relationship with a chasteness missing from the average relationship. The Kleiers courted in the traditional sense of the word. Though they didn't realize it at the time, they were part of a larger movement among Christians — taking romantic relationships with the utmost seriousness and only entering into them if they could lead to marriage. to marriage. Tim, Gardner senior, and Abby, 2004 University of Kansas graduate, met through a high school youth group as 17 year olds. Tim noticed Abby's boisterous personality right away, but was hesitant to bring up the possibility of a relationship with her. Tim had had three previous relationships. All had lasted about three months and had left him feeling displeased with himself. "I saw myself doing ungodly things with them. I stepped away and said, 'I'm not getting into a relationship unless it's right.'" So Tim waited. But RECORDING TRAINING the feelings kept getting stronger. Abby, on the other hand, couldn't have been more oblivious to Tim's affection for her. She enjoyed his company, but thought nothing of it. In fact, when Tim finally asked to spend time with her, at first she thought he had a problem he wanted to discuss because she was frequently sought out for advice. Abby did feel a connection to Tim, though. And when Tim finally couldn't suppress his feelings any longer, Abby realized she reciprocated. Tim and Abby didn't want to "date." Both were jaded by the concept of dating and hesitated to call each other boyfriend and girlfriend. "We didn't know what to call it. We liked each other and left it at that," Abby says. Christians didn't discuss the concept of courting much when Tim and Abby began their relationship, but the couple thinks the word best describes the way they approached it. Courting defined While every courting relationship is different and there is no single definition, the courtship approach has several principles. First, courters are usually deeply Christian, and their relationship is driven by a desire to follow God's guidance. Second, courtship is marked by the absence of sexual contact. Abby and Tim chose not to kiss until their engagement. Some courtskiss much earlier, and some wait until they are married. The principle is the relationship should be seeking to develop a deep friendship before anything physical happens. Third, courting couples seek advice from people they respect in their church and often involve their parents in their decision-making. courting is to make a decision about whether the couple will marry. Courtship is not casual, and not about getting to know someone for fun. In fact, most people who court do not date at all. They wait to court. The thing that truly distinguishes courtship from dating is the deliberation that goes into it. Asking a woman if she will enter into a courtship is much more serious than asking for a date. And before a man asks a woman to court, he thinks, prays and seeks advice about the potential relationship. Courtship centers around the prospect of marriage. The purpose of There aren't national statistics on how many couples are courting, but Christians point to the emergence of the book, / Kissed Dating Goodbye, by Joshua Harris, as sparking the rise in the number of courting couples. Published in 1997, Harris's book extols the benefits of stopping "dating" as it is generally understood. Harris suggests being purposefully single to focus on God and to wait until the right time to begin a relationship and then to center that relationship in God. Harris's second book, Boy Meets Girl: Say Hello to Courtship, outlines the principles of courtship. This day I will marry my best friend Why people court A Jenny Morris, 2004 University of Kansas graduate, is currently in a courtship. Morris has dated the typical way before, but found the experience hurtful. She says dating people for fun doesn't turn out to be fun because feelings always get involved." Dating left a bad taste in my mouth. I don't just want my heart out there just to put it out there." Morris says courting gives couples the ability to grow together and be more guarded than an unguided relationship. And because her relationship with God is important to her, courtship allows faith to be the focal point of the romantic relationship. As the Baptist campus minister, Rick Clock has worked with numerous couples, including the Kleiers. Few people he works with use the courtship approach, but Clock agrees with the ideals of courtship. "It seems to be people saying, 'I think there's a better way to do this dating game,'" Clock says. He says courtship allows couples to take the relationship seriously, consult others for guidance and prevent the physicality from running the relationship. His only misgiving with courtship is that I'll just output the text as it is. (left) Tim and Abby embrace playfully in a pool this summer. The Kleiers were spending time with family at a Fourth of July party. (far left) The Kleiers relax on their honeymoon in Cancun, Mexico in June 2003. ALEXANDRA BURTON because there is no dating, young people could be missing out on great potential mates by not going out with anyone just for fun. Contributed photos from Tim and Abbey Kleier For the most part, courtship is a healthy approach to finding a mate, as long as both people in the relationship share the same values, says Barrie Arachtingi, executive director of Christian Psychological Services, 500 Rockledge Road. Her concern is that young people could feel pressured by their church or peers to do a courtship when they would rather take a more relaxed approach. Arachtingi suggests that people who intend to court get to know a variety of people before they start a courtship. The success of the courtship approach is difficult to measure. Clock says he thinks couples who court have a high probability of a strong marriage. Arachtingi says she can't speculate because each relationship is different. But she does say that both the Christian and non-Christian couples she counsels seem to have the same problems, such as communication and power issues. Not all Christians are fans of courting. Many in the courtship movement focus on rational decision-making to the point that they disregard love, says Kathleen van Schaijk, editor of The University Con- A differing view The front of Tim and Abby's wedding invitation shows the roots of their relationship — a deep friendship.

Van Schaijik says she is afraid young people who take courtship too seriously will marry without love, thinking that all that really matters is compatibility. "[Love] is not something we control the way we control, say, our career path," van Schaijik says. Van Schaijik supports the idea of courtship, but not the idea that courtship is all about rationality. She says there are some in the courtship movement who take the idea of logically choosing the right person so seriously that they marry the wrong person — someone they respect, but are not in love with. And she says she's not just speculating, she's seen it happen to friends. Van Schaijik says there is much to criticize about today's dating world, but that it remains the normal way people meet each other. "We should be teaching them how to do it well — with a sense of purpose and moral seriousness, with reverence, with dignity and integrity. We should not be saying they shouldn't date at all," she CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE 11.11.04 Jayplay 11 105 CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE says. Amanda Meglemre, Overland Park senior, agrees. As a freshman, Meglemre was involved with a campus ministry that encouraged courting. She and her boyfriend — who was also involved with the group — weren't in a courtship. Meglemre says the leaders within the group counselled both of them separately about how they should not be dating, but should instead be saving their hearts for Jesus. "I didn't agree. I kind of believe you have to date people to know what's right for you. You have to try on different personalities and see what fits. I think you interact with people differently when you are dating them and its important to see that interaction, "Meglemre says." Later that year, Meglemre and her boyfriend broke up, but by that time they weren't involved with the campus ministry anymore. She says the group's pressure did put a strain on their relationship by making she and her boyfriend question why they were together because AUGUST 2014 A sexual critique breakup. She says her and her boyfriend just wanted different things." (The group) meant well. They wanted everyone to grow in their faith. It just wasn't for me." marriage did not seem likely. But marriage didn't blame the group for the Abby and Tim pose for their engagement photos in fall 2002 at Potter's lake. The couple got engaged years after the courtship began. Others have a different concern about courtship. Dennis Detweiler, Lawrence sex therapist, says couples who are deeply in love, but not familiar with each other sexually, may have some disappointment in store. People who love each other are not always sexually compatible, Detweiler says. Detweiler explains that couples can have different ideas about what's right and wrong in sex, different levels of desire and different interest levels. Moreover, he says the notion of keeping one self pure before marriage may instill sex-negative messages in people. Those messages don't automatically go away after marriage. Detwiler says it's good courting couples are concerned with emotional intimacy first. He said he would never advocate couples go against their morals, but they must be realistic about their first sex. ual contact. "I think it's a myth that waiting until the night of the honeyman is going to be special. It's a set up for failure." Deteweller says. He says that the anticipation going into sex, something that the couple has never done before, breeds inaccurate expectations and often, disappointment. Deteweller says the ideal is for couples to explore both emotional and sexual intimacy before marriage — though that doesn't have to mean intercourse. "They don't have to touch, suck and lick each other, but they need to talk about their sexuality," he says. The Kleiers don't entirely agree. "Sex is says that the solution for them was the strength of their friendship — and a lot of practice. a big jump, no matter where you come from in the relationship," Tim says. The Kleiers are glad to have abstained from a physical relationship until marriage, though they say kissing after their engagement made it increasingly difficult. And both say they think if they had kissed early in their relationship that it would have complicated the relationship and they wouldn't still be together. wouldn't laugh. But Abby and Tim admit the transition to lovers was harder than the couple had anticipated. "We were so naive. We thought it would be so easy. And it was not easy at all." Both Tim and Abby say that they each had different, wrong ideas about what sex would be like and what it would bring to their relationship. Abby DETWEILER SAYS THAT THE IDEAL IS FOR COUPLES TO EXPLORE BOTH EMOTIONAL AND SEXUAL INTIMACY BEFORE MARRIAGE —THOUGH THAT DOESN'T HAVE TO MEAN INTERCOURSE, "THEY DON'T HAVE TO TOUCH," SUCK AND LICK EACH OTHER, BUT THE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THEIR SEXUALITY, HE SAYS. And though Tim says the anticipation of sex didn't factor into he and Abby's decision to marry, he does say he thinks that couples who are saving sex for marriage tend to be more excited about committing their lives to each other than couples who have already had sex. He does not think this desire necessarily makes couples rush into marriage, but it is possible. The Kleiers say they were excited to have a sexual relationship, but that was not why they married. "We were simply not going to have sex until we were married, whenever that day came," Tim says. He says the couple determined the right time through their relationship with God. By no means are Christians overwhelmingly turning to courtship as their primary way to treat romantic relationships, and even those who court don't think it is a perfect method. But those who believe in it agree courtship is a healthy alternative to a lot of heartbreak. "We didn't do everything right," Tim says. "But we were guided to and stumbled upon some good principles."

By Joe Bant, Jayplay writer Illustration by Austin Gilmore Sex does a body good Kellie Robertson's boyfriend lives roughly 750 miles away in the small Texas town of San Marcos. Not surprisingly, the two don't exactly get to see much of each other. But every month or so, the Hugoton junior will find the time and money for the plane trip south, or he'll venture up to Lawrence, and they'll do what many young couples do in their situation: They'll have lots of sex. "Fall break, we barely left the room," she says with a chuckle. And afterward, when they're saying goodbye and preparing for another month of sleeping alone, Robertson says she feels healthier — emotionally, mentally and physically—than she was before the visit. Part of the positive feeling comes from simply seeing her boyfriend after such a long time without him, but part of it, she says, comes from the sex, itself. "The cliché is that it's sexual frustration," Robertson says. "But it's more tension and stress that have the opportunity to be released." The notion of sex being good for us isn't unheard of. Few would dispute its value as exercise, for example, and people also generally accept it as an effective stress reliever. But for the most part, whatever good comes out of sex is overshadowed by the possible negative consequences associated with it, says David Hall, executive director of the American College of Sexologists. Put another way, flip through a typical high school sex ed book, and you'll probably see entire chapters devoted to unplanned pregnancies and STDs, but look for information about the benefits of orgasms, and you'll likely come up empty. Hall says the powers-that-be in American society, political and religious leaders to name a few, enforce a restrictive attitude about sex as a means of social control. "If you can control the basic drives, you can control the people," he says. But in doing so, he says, they do a disservice to Americans not only because of the shame they foster in peoples' attitudes about sex, but because expressing sexuality is positively associated with good health, and not just in the ways you would typically expect. Sure, there's the stress relief aspect and exercise. Robertson, for example, compares sex to running, because they both have a therapeutic effect for her. She also compares to it a "full day of manual labor like digging a ditch." Jim Flaigle, Wichita senior, agrees that sex is a full-body work out, and says afterward, he feels a "cathartic" sense of release. "There's the endorphic rush," he says. "It's a pleasant tiredness." It's fairly obvious sex is a workout, and anyone who's had an orgasm knows it relieves stress. What's less obvious and what many people don't know are the other aspects of health sex has been related to. According to studies cited in a Planned Parenthood White Paper, a research paper on the organization's Web site, PlannedParenthood.org, sex has been positively linked with how long people live and the probability that they won't succumb to heart disease or stroke, and that's even when other risk factors are taken into account. Researchers have also speculated that chemicals associated with arousal and orgasm in women can play a part in preventing breast cancer.Also, for women,studies have supported the idea that sex can help regulate menstrual cycles and relieve menstrual cramps.The paper connects everything from sleep to pain tolerance to prostate health with peoples' abilities to express themselves sexually. As far as mental health is concerned, the paper says people who are getting laid seem less likely to be depressed, overly stressed or affected by low self-esteem. Whether these studies will hold up with time remains to be seen, but many people now don't even know the research is out there. According to the paper, the bulk of sexual research is still focused predominantly on problems and dysfunctions, and the true health benefits of sex won't fully be discovered if society continues in that direction. Neither Robertson nor Flaigle were familiar with the research, and both agreed that if the studies were valid, they needed to be part of the discussion. Flaigle went so far as to say that the taboo attitude society endorses about sex could actually contribute to the health problems associated with sex, such as sexually transmitted diseases and unplanned pregnancies. "Young people go out and try to experience it just for spite," he says. Judy Guerin, a founding board member of the Washington D.C.-based Woodhull Freedom Foundation, which is devoted to the idea that sex is a fundamental human right, agreed that "youth who are more informed make more responsible decisions." But, she says, the culture of sexuality in our society is one of shame, and this affects youth as well as adults. Hall says his personal favorite anti-sex line is, " 'Sex is evil; save it for somebody you love.'" Robertson states it even more succinctly, drawing from her small-town Hugoton roots. "Sex is the devil there," she says simply. "Sex is the devil there," she says simply. It just happens to be a devil that could make people happier and healthier.

Brian Wheatley Brian Wacker He said she said "Size doesn't matter" When checking someone out from the opposite sex, often one will imagine what this person looks like naked, especially when men are doing the checking out. So when the crucial time comes to do the deed, certain expectations are already lined up as to how this person should look naked. Whether it be penises or breasts, the saying "size doesn't matter" will come up to deal with insecurities. This saying might be something said in hopes of making the other person feel better, but it also might not actually matter. Kelly Dirks, Derby junior, says that penis size doesn't matter. On the other hand, some women say this to avoid talking about the let down they have just experienced. "I'm trying to bolster your ego and be nice about it," Anne Grantski, Omaha senior, says. "Size doesn't matter" is a phrase used by women when talking to men so if a guy says this he probably means just what he says. "There's more important things in life than breast size," says David Starkweather, Omaha senior. "But if a girl says that to me, I would feel inadequate because I know she is lying out of her ass." — Jayme Wiley --- 11.11.04 Jayplay 13 . The The Scorpii .

It's the name of a cocktail. Where the name came from is a different, much debated story. Some bartenders say it was named after "Old Tom" gin, a sweetened version of the liquor that the drink used to be made from. Others say an Irish immigrant invented it in the 1800s to stay cool while trying to avoid getting completely blasted, then named it after himself. One unknown man claims his grandpa invented it in the early 1900s while bartending at a New York City bar named Whitehouse, also giving it his own name. England and Australia have also tried to lay claim on the drink, proving that the Tom Collins is a global phenomenon. We may not know who invented it, but one thing is for sure: This is probably the only cocktail popular enough to have its own special glass. Mix one up and say cheers to good old Tommy.

This cannot be denied, and I have already used (some may say wasted) enough ink conveying this fact, so this is the last time I promise. In Alfie, his prettiness is thrusted upon us; some may welcome this (me included), others may groan. As he speaks and leans toward the camera, I dare anyone not to be charmed or at least impressed that he is able to talk directly to the camera so effortlessly. However, despite Law's best efforts, Alfie ALEXANDRA KRISTEN AND JEREMY RITCHIE is not as perfect as his portrayer might have you believe. Standing on its own, Alfie is fun although full of fluff. It suffers from clichés and no one is surprised that Alfie starts to rethink his approach to women. There are a few precious moments as Alfie is rethinking his actions that are genuinely sweet and even touching. As with any movie with a pretty actor in it, one must wonder if it suffers from the, to quote Joey Tribbiani, "when the package is this pretty, no one cares what's inside" syndrome, but in Alfie's case it's (unfortunately) true. Now I know this is a remake of a 1966 classic starring a young Michael Caine as Alfie. I will admit I have never seen the original. This Alfie, directed by Charles Shyer, follows Alfie as he tries to sleep with any beautiful face that happens by. His women are many, including a single mom (Marisa Tomei), a sexy businesswoman (Susan Surandon) and a party girl (Sienna Miller). As he moves through all these women, Alfie starts to ponder what life is all about as Mick Jagger sings about just that in the background. — Lindsey Ramsey The Polar Express (★★★) Christmas is ultimately a cruel rite of passage for children. After eight or nine years of reindeer and sleigh bells and a fat man sliding down chimneys, up comes the wool over their eyes and a world of magic is replaced by a sense of mistrust numbed only by the sweet candy of consumerism. G,100 minutes, South Wind 12 The best Christmas movies (Miracle on 34 $^{th}$ Street, The Muppet Christmas Carol) make us forget our adult resentments so that we experience, if only for a short while, some of the purest feelings of early childhood. The Polar Express does all that and more. Directed by Robert Zemeckis from the children's book by Chris Van Allsburg, Polar Express is about a little boy on the brink of his own rite of passage. Late on Christmas Eve, when his doubts about the big man in red are beginning to stir, the boy is awakened by the appearance of a magic train outside his snow-banked house. The conductor informs him that he's on his way to the North Pole, and the boy joins the other children on the train for a long and perilous journey toward the Northern Lights. The Polar Express looks like one of Pixar's computer-animated movies, but in fact the production involved motion capture effects; live actors performed on a soundstage and their movements were transmitted into a computer. This process took $165 million to complete, and every penny is up on the screen. Alternately lifelike and highly stylized, Zemeckis' characters (five of them are played by Tom Hanks) have slightly rounded features that perfectly recreate the illustrations of Van Allsburg's 1985 book. Motion capture also frees the director from the constraints of CGI, so that his "camera" can swoop and dance around the action. Zemeckis is one of Hollywood's most dizzyingly imaginative filmmakers, and here he comes up with enough showstoppers to rival his most acclaimed films, Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Forrest Gump. Action-packed and emotionally resonant, Polar Express is pure magic. It's not so much for kids as it is for thrill-seekers. — Stephen Shupe The Incredibles (★★★) PG, 115 minutes, South Wind 12 Pixar is growing up. After G-rated fare such as Monsters, Inc., Finding Nemo, and the Toy Story movies, Pixar gives us The Incredibles, darker and more mature than any of its predecessors. The movie looks like a computer animated version of a James Bond movie from the '60s, set in a world where superheroes are an everyday part of life, but are forced into hiding when a few citizens get lawsuit happy. The story follows a family of superheroes: there's dad, a.k.a. Mr. Incredible (voiced by Craig T. Nelson); mom, a.k.a. Elastigirl (voiced by Holly Hunter); daughter Violet, son Dash and infant son Jack Jack. Mr. Increible is frustrated and unhappy with his job at an insurance company and jumps at any opportunity to get back in the superhero game. Disney PIXAR THE INCREDIBLES What makes The Incredibles so great is the Incredibles so great is its obvious love for the superhero genre of comic books and movies. The movie is cocky in a good way, always knowing what it is and isn't afraid to poke fun at itself with a grin and a one liner. It's more of a satire of the genre than anything else, meant for an older audience. Some of the movie's funniest parts come from the way the filmmakers use the idea of extraordinary people trying to fit into ordinary life. There are more than a few darker moments because of the subject matter. For instance, there are two deaths by jet engine, but it is refreshing to see a Pixar movie not exclusively aimed at the kiddies. The voice acting is flawless and each role is perfectly cast. The humor is darker, as is the story. Of all the Pixar movies, this one is the most complex and as a result is the most rewarding. — Jon Ralston JAYPLAY Your weekend starts here.

Three years ago, Bridget Jones made her movie debut. Based on Helen Fielding's book of the same name, the film captured the essence and spirit of the novel, of course helped by Renée Zellweger's Oscar-nominated performance of the title character. BRIDGET JONES: THE EDGE OF HEARTH THE BRIDGET JONES FILM BY W. K. DAVIS IN DERIAL 2017 Cleaver (Hugh Grant, sexpot number two), in full charm and sleaze mode, gets a job at the same station as Bridget, she is torn between the two men in her life. The sequel continues immediately where the first book left off, at the start of a new year with fabulous new boyfriend, Mark Darcy (Colin Firth, sexpot number one). Bridget keeps finding new ways to embarrass herself at her on-air reporting job. Her relationship with Mark is up and down, as she doesn't exactly fit in with his upper class friends. When Daniel The movie contains a lot of Bridget falling down and saying exactly the wrong thing at exactly the wrong moment. While this is funny at times, I wondered if this girl would ever get some common sense and a clue. There are some funny moments, such as when Grant and Firth face-off in a not exactly battle royal, and when Bridget gets mistaken for a drug-runner and has to spend some quality time in a Thai prison. What the first movie did so well was bring to the screen the bumbling humanity of Bridget in her attempt to find romance and lose pounds. The sequel, while having its moments, seems like a forced retread of the original, lacking in the charm this time around. —Jon Ralston Finding Neverland (★★★) PG, 101 minutes, South Wind 12 Following last Christmas' underrated screen adaptation Peter Pan (directed by P.J. Hogan) and this year's novelized prequel Peter and the Star Catchers (coauthored by humorist Dave Barry), Finding Neverland is the latest Pan project to tackle the boy who won't grow up. Marc Forster's fancifully wide-eyed biopic stars Johnny Depp as J.M. Barrie, the eccentric Scottish playwright who first created Peter Pan on the stage in early 1900s London. When we first see him, Barrie is peeking behind the curtains, waiting for his latest uninspired play to fail. Inspiration comes in the form of the Davies family; widow Sylvia (Kate Winslet) and boys George, Jack, Michael and, of course, Peter (newcomer Freddie Highmore, who will play opposite Depp again next year in BROOK WENNSON CHRISTIAN HOPPEN UNLOCK YOUR IMAGINATION FINDING NEVERLAND TIMELINE Tim Burton's remake of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory). The film is like a sexless redo of Shakespeare in Love. When Forster focuses on evocative visuals, such as the scene where Barrie imagines the boys flying out of their bedroom window, Finding Neverland is a light and touching spectacle. But too much of its screen time is filled up with long, theatural passages of dialogue. The screenplay, based on Allan Knee's play, The Man Who Was Peter Pan, tends to tell when it should show. Depp displays a mischievous sense of fun opposite the kids. The performance spreads like an electrical current through the rest of the movie, spinning key moments — like when Barrie envisions the boys' scolding grandmother growing a hook for a hand — into the realm of enchantment. Depp does believe in fairies, and so we do too. — Stephen Shupe www.pipelineproductions.com COMING SOON AT THE BOTTLENECK 737 NEW HAMPSHIRE / LAWRENCE, KS WED. NOV 10 ARCHITECTS PIXEL PANDA FRI.

Van Morrison and dusty porches," Ray LaMontagne's saliently unique style is often indefinable on his debut album, Trouble. Drawing influence from Stephen Stills, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and Otis Redding, among others, LaMontagne sounds like a backwoods soul gypsy, crafting pastoral hymns with a folk guitar and an aching gospel moan. After transforming a Los Angeles studio into an Appalachian campground, LaMontagne recorded Trouble in only two weeks, collaborating with astute producer and musical Renaissance man, Ethan Johns. The result is an album of introspection, observation and reflection. LaMontagne sifts through life's tribulations and emerges with 10 songs about his struggles, loves, hopes and fears. On the lead and title track, LaMontagne lets out an arching cry of, "Trouble's been down on my soul since the day I was born/Worry just will not seem to leave my mind alone." Never one to dwell though, LaMontagne later rises from his despondency and offers domestic healing like Marvin Gaye offered sexual healing. On "Forever My Friend" he suggests, "If we keep our hearts together, I just think if we build on this love we have for one another, maybe we can make this last a lifetime." Johns makes his presence felt on "How Come," lending a twisting and turning bout of electricity to a track of social criticism on which LaMontagne states a bit too dramatically that he, "can't tell the free world from living hell." He clearly does not vacation in Sierra Leone. Or maybe he does and prefers it. In either case, I applaud him. As a whole, Trouble is an intimate album, like many folk albums are. Listening to it feels invasive or voyeuristic, like LaMontagne would prefer to be alone with the music, purging his demons with guttural gospel folk. Nick Drake was once described as an artist who made music so intrinsically quiet that it could never be loud, no matter how far to the right you cranked the volume knob. LaMontagne is like that, too. He writes emotive songs and sings like a church going man, all packaged into a tight, quiet bundle. Grade.

It looked like it had promise, but just didn't stand up. The game is in the middle of the anime cartoon Yu-Yu Hakusho, part of the Adult Swim line on Cartoon Network. It goes right along with the series. After thinking that he has beaten the Toguro brothers, Yusuke Urameshi is surprised to see his latest foe still alive. He confronts you and your first fight begins. After the scuffle, he tells Yusuke of the upcoming Dark Tournament and tells him to enter. Kuwabara, Hiei, Kurama and the Masked Fighter join you for your team. One of the interesting, but rather annoying matches is the Knife-Edge Death match. Because you are so close to your opponent, you can't block so you must uncover the correct series of buttons to press in order to defeat him. What this game lacks is decent response time from your character. Your characters' actions are really slow and make it difficult to do a few moves. The sluggish movements make it easier for your characters to defeat opponents. Grade: D One match type is tag team. If your character get beaten too much, you can switch him out for other characters and have the other fight. Like other games, however, he don't regain his health when he is resting. regardless Yu-Yu Hakusho: Dark Tournament looks like a good choice at first glance, but once you begin playing it, you realize you've wasted your money. — Chris Moore the University of Kansas KU Card Student CALI JOHN TONGUE IN BEAK YOU ARE WHAT YOU READ JAYPLAY The access to UKU and not affiliated with the KU Card or JAYPLAY.

My best friend, Zach, was right behind me, I guess for moral support. ("How warm me," I said. "Hey mom," I said. She was busy at her desk and didn't look up to say hello, but something blue caught her attention from the corner of her eye. Zach and I nervously laughed. "What the hell did you do?" The nervous laughter immediately vanished. You see, whenever my mom says the h-e-double-hockey-sticks word, I know that things are not going to be pretty. "Um, I gotta go home By Matt Beat, Jayplay writer now," said Zach, who was afraid of the look my mother had just given me. My mother didn't really speak to me for two days after I dyed my hair blue. Even when she did start talking to me again, she didn't really want to be seen with me in public. About the only place she would go with me was church, which struck me as odd because at church I was greeted by more confused, disapproving stares than anywhere else. Of course, it was a Catholic church in a small Kansas town, so even if the congregation did approve of my newfound blueness they still would be staring. Even my friends were surprised, but most of them thought it was the coolest thing I'd ever done. I caught the attention of girls when I went out, which is something that never really happened to me before. Before I had blue hair, I guess girls didn't think I seemed wild enough for them. The "nice guys finish last theory" proved to be true. Strangers and friends alike were still confused. Wherever I went, they would ask me, "Why did you do it?" "I don't know," I would tell them, "I guess because blue is my favorite color." Looking back, at the time I think I was still trying to discover myself. I was a freshman at Neosho County Community College, going to school in the Middle Of Nowhere, U.S.A. (a.k.a. Chanute) My sole purpose for being there was to play soccer, thanks to a gracious scholarship. Community college was high school to me. There were still the cliques. There was still the lingering trapped feeling. There was still boring, average, quiet me. I was 19, old enough now to express my beliefs in a way that would get noticed while not getting grounded in the process. In Chanute, I was the only boy in town with blue hair. I'll never forget walking into the locally-owned T & R Restaurant, a place where the old timers talked about the high school football team over coffee and pancakes. The place was usually loud, but when I walked in you could hear a liberal 100 miles away in Lawrence. Some of my soccer teammates would constantly give me a hard time to a point where I would avoid being around them. What's sad is that I actually regretted dying my hair when I saw how everybody seemed to hate it. At church, at school, as a waiter, and as a soccer player, I was suddenly getting looked at differently, lumped into a "rebel" stereotype simply because of the color of my hair. After the initial shock had worn off, my family and friends began to actually forget about my blue hair. My mom started talking to me again. My dad came up with a new blue hair joke every time I talked to him. "So you been hanging out with the Smurfs?" he asked me one time. I did quit my job as a waiter and finding another a job with blue hair was a bit rough, but I noticed that when people were used to my hair they tended to warm up to the idea. Eventually I wasn't even conscious of my hair. Having blue hair was an experiment for me in many ways. I learned how quickly one's perception of someone can change. I learned that my family will always be there for me, no matter what color my hair is. But the most important lesson was not one I learned, but I taught. Before my hair was blue everyone — especially those closest to me — thought they really knew who I was. My experiment proved them wrong. With me, you don't always get what you expect. 11. 11.04 Jayplay 19 Boulders Weekly Specials @ Railway.com Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tues Wed $1 Shots$ 2.50 Dbl Wells 75¢ Draws $1 Wells$ 1 Shots $2.25 Rolling Rock Bottles$ 1 Shots $3 Red Bull Screating Eagle$ 2.25 High Life Bottles $1 Shots$ 1.50 Draws $1 Off Import Btls$ 1 Shots $2.25 Harp Bottles$ 1 Shots $1 Shots$ 1.50 Pint Blvd. Wheat & Pale Ale Tower Thursdays! $7 2 Liter Towers$ 3 Jager Bombs Lunch Special-4.99 Chicken Fried Steak Happy Hour Appetizers 4-6pm $2.50 Rolling Rock Bottles$ 2.50 Rock Green Light Bottles $2 Captain Morgan Drinks Wings, 10 for$ 4, 20 for $7, 40 for$ 14 $3 Vodka and Energy Drinks$ 4.99 Chicken Finger Basket Tower Tuesday! $7 2 Liter Towers$ 2 Smirnoff Flavors $2.50 Corona, Dos Equis, Negra Modelo Pacifico$ 2 Parrot Bay Drinks $1 12 oz Draws$ 3.50 Jager Bombers $3.75 Domestic Pitchers$ 3.75 Domestic Pitchers $2 Screwdrivers & Bloody Mary's$ 2 Domestic 12oz Bottles $2 Well Drinks$ 3.75 Pitchers $1.75 Domestic Bottles$ 2 Premium Pints $3 Double Wells Band: The Border Band$ 2.50 Bloodyys $5.50 Burger/Fries/Pint Half Price Pizza$ 3.50 Pitchers $1 Tacos$ 2.25 Blvd. Pints Texas Hold 'Em 7-10 pm $3 Double Red Bull & Vodkas$ 2.75 Biggies DJ Scottie Mac $2.75 Imported Bottles$ 1 Kami Shots $4 Captain Dbl Free Pool (12am-2am)$ 2 Bully Pint $4 Smirnoff Dbl$ 5 Miller Pitchers $2 Screwdrivers$ 3.50 super Premium Bottles $3.75 Bloody Marys Free Pool (12am-2am)$ 1 Draw & Shot Mix $2 Wells$ 1 Draw & Shot Mix $2 Wells Free Pool (12am-2am)$ 2.25 Domestic Bottles $4 Long Islands$ 1 Fuzzy Shot Free Pool (12am-2am) $5 Miller Pitchers$ 2 Ice 101 Shot Free Pool (12am-2am) $1.50 Dbl Wells and Draws$ 1 Almost Anything $1 Domestic Bottles$ 2 Doubles $1.50 Shots LADIES NO COVER$ 2 Pitchers $2 Any Bottle$ 3.50 Jager Bombs $6 Grilled Chicken$ 2 Mexican Beers $2 Captains$ 5 Phillies $2.50 32oz Big Beers$ 3 Vodka & Energy Drink 2£ Wings $4 Domestic Pitchers$ 2 Bloody Marys $5 Burgers$ 2 Domestic Bottles $2 Wells 1/2 Price Appetizers$ 1.50 Domestic Pints $2 Smirnoff/UV Mixers Buy One Entree get One 1/2 Price$ 3 Domestic Pitchers $3 Double Calls$ 5 Chicken Strips 2 for 1 Wells 50¢ Bud/Bud Lt Draws $4 Chicken & Buffalo Strips$ 1.50 Wells $2 Bottles$ 6 Phillys $1 Domestic Draws$ 5 Red, White & Blue Burger All Pitchers $5 25¢ Wings$ 2.50 Import Bottles $2 23 oz Domestic DraWS$ 4 Reubens DJ Nick Redell Graduation Needs Place you Textbook Pre-Order jayhawkbook-store.com Live Broadcast Greg Sharp Sports Show 230-530 Weekend Tailgate Specials 25%-40% off Weekend Tailgate Specials 25%-40% off Monday Madness Graduation Needs Place you Textbook Pre-Order jayhawkbook-store.com Graduation Needs Place you Textbook Pre-Order jayhawkbook-store.com $3.50 Pitchers$ 3.50 32oz Bottles (our famous brown bag specials) Gameday Specials Sleeping off Hangovers $1 Cans$ 2.50 24 oz Big Draws $1.50 14 oz Draws$ 2 Domestic Bottles 1.75 Domestic Schooners $3 Premiums$ 2.50 on most Bottled Beer $3.25 Blvd. Schooners and Freestate$ 1.50 Wells Large 1 Topping Pizza with 2 Beers for $10.50 Large 1 Topping Pizza with 2 Beers for$ 10.50 Large Specialty Pizza with 10 Cinnamon Stix and 10 Wings for $14.99 Buy a Large Pizza at regular price and recieve a FREE Medium Pizza (5-9pm) Buy a Large Pizza at regular price and recieve a FREE Medium Pizza (5-9pm) Value Meal Deal; Personal Pan with Breadsticks and a Drink for$ 3 $3 Martinis$ 3 Jumbo 32oz Margaritas $3 Jumbo 32oz Margaritas$ 2.50 Bloody Marys $2 off Schooners$ 4 Bud Light Pitchers $6 Blvd Pitchers Boulevard Night:$ 1Pale Ale Drinks $1 Wheat Draws Yachi Club goal & sport ASTROS FINE HAIR M. & GREIL VIRGINIA MARKETING REPRESENTATIVE Pool Room 8 RANCH THE MOORIE DUNLAND COLLEGE BASEMENT madhatté bar&grill IN THE CROSSING louse's Pizza Hut BAMBINOS Lagerbeer, Monkey Milk Beer Bar, Lots of Fun 6B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 4B THE --- 9 E C O I R MIDDLE EASTERN HISTORICAL SITE Ne SPORTS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2004 9 BASKETBALL CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B "He is about as fun to watch as any player out there because he just knows how to play," Self said. "He's tall. He's skilled. He can block shots, can rebound." Downs said it was Kansas' tradition that lured him to the school. Downs said he was well aware that Self wanted him to have an immediate impact next season. "With all of the great players and winning tradition, they're always in the tournament," Downs said. "It is just a great place to play college basketball." "Kansas is losing four seniors, and if J.R. leaves, I have a great chance to get valuable minutes next season." Downs said. He said he committed in May because he didn't want to have to worry about choosing a school during his senior season. He averaged 19.7 points, almost 12 rebounds and 3.6 assists as a junior at Juanita High School in Kirkland, Wash. He is the fourth-ranked shooting guard in the nation according to Rivals.com He chose Kansas over Duke, Gonzaga and Washington. Mario Chalmers Mario Chalmers A, 6-1, point guard from Anchorage, Alaska Chalmers is the top-rated player at his position by Rivals.com. Chalmers' father, Ronnie Chalms, is the coach of Players sign commitment his son's high school team and said Mario had been a fan of Self since Self coached at Illinois. CHALMERS He added that Self was one of the biggest reasons that his son chose Kansas. "Coach Self just made him feel like one of the guys," Chalmer said. "He loved the family atmosphere at Kansas." Self said Mario Chalmers had a physique similar to current Kansas freshman guard Russell Robinson, with long arms and good athleticism. "He is a guy that you can throw lobs to," Self said. "He can play with the ball in his hands and score off of the catch." Like Downs, Ronnie Chalmers said Mario committed in May because the recruiting process was getting crazy. "He had many choices, and he didn't want to go through the '04-'05 season with this on his mind," Ronnie Chalmers said. Mario Chalmers and his father both attended Late Night in the Phog, when five jerseys with prospective recruits' names were waved around the court. "He doesn't get worked up about a lot of things, but you could see it in his eyes that night," his father said. "If he had any doubts, they were erased that night." Self said next year, he would play both Chalmers and Robinson at the same time. But he said they could both handle the ball and play point. Chalmers averaged 23.2 points, six assists and almost six rebounds a game in his junior season at Bartlett High School. He chose Kansas over Arizona, North Carolina and Georgia Tech. Self said the Jayhawks had Julian Wright always wanted Wright, but after Self had stomach surgery last spring, he could not travel to Wright's hometown of Chicago to see him play. Self said Kansas had to compete with other schools for Wright all summer, but when the Wrights allowed Self's staff into their home, it helped seal the deal. WRIGHT Self said it was the best home visit he ever had, because he had talked to Wright only one time before he went to his house for a visit. "Not very often do you go into home visits not expecting much and come away with everything." Self said. Self and assistant coach Curtis Townsend treated the visit like a normal one. When the coaches initially left Wright's house, neither thought the recruit would commit. But then about 15 minutes later, the Wrights phoned Self and told him to come back over. Self remembers going back over to the house and finding a happy family. "He (Julian) said 'I'm coming,' and I said 'That's great, where are we going,'" Self said. "And he said 'I'm coming to Kansas,' and I basically said 'Julian, I know you are coming to Kansas, you already told me that you are coming to visit.' And he said 'I am committing.'" Wright is a 6-8 forward from Chicago Heights, Ill. Self said he was one of the best all-around players that he had ever signed. Wright has ball handling and post skills, but more importantly, he is a good passer, Self said. He could play four of the five positions for Kansas. "His shot is getting more consistent, but the thing about him is that he doesn't care about scoring." Self said. "He could dominate a game without shooting the basketball, and there aren't too many players out there like that." Wright averaged 10.4 points, seven rebounds and almost five assists a game in his junior season at Homewood-Flossmoor High School. He chose Kansas over Arizona, Illinois and DePaul. Downs, Chalmers and Wright met this summer at an NBA Players Association basketball camp. Downs said he and Chalmers were roommates and became friends. The three also got to see each other during Late Night at the Phog. With one scholarship left, Self said he was not in a hurry to sign anvone. "The one positive about having a scholarship is that you know what your team's needs are more than if you would have given it away back in September," Self said. — Edited by Jon Ralston Old Lions Cemetery Front Page News Sports Arts Opinion Extra Red Lyon Tavern 944 Mass. 832-8228 Spicy Red Wine Sauce!!

Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said a rape had not been reported to officials in the hall. He said it is policy of the Department of Student Housing to encourage people to report incidents like rape to the police. The suspect, an 18-year-old male, was a guest of a resident at Ellsworth Hall when the rape reportedly happened Oct. 23. www.kansan.com Sgt. Bob Williams of KU Public Safety Office said in a previous interview that he did not know why there was more than two weeks between when the rape reportedly happened and when it was reported. The 16-year-old woman who reported she was raped was also a guest of a resident in the hall, said Chris Keary. KU Public Safety Office assistant chief. The rape was reported to officials Tuesday. Keary said that "several things were going on that night and they ended up at the residence hall." He couldn't say what the "several things" were but both the man and woman had consumed alcohol off campus before the rape occurred. Police were unable to release the name of the 18-year-old man because an investigation is ongoing. He said he understood that the two people involved in the rape were acquaintances. — Amanda O'Toole "Students ought to be careful about who they party with and should know who their friends are." Stoner said. Kansas basketball player Aaron Miles broke up a fight between two women yesterday morning at about 1:15 a.m. in the parking lot of Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St. [Name] MILES Miles stops altercation outside bar FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2004 Sgt. Dan Ward, Lawrence Police Department, said that Erin Enneking, freshman-sophomore adviser at the University of Kansas, was talking to Miles in the parking lot when Jennifer Demby came from behind and struck her on the head. Enneking declined comment and attempts to contact Demby were unsuccessful. Enneking and Demby were acquaintances, Ward said. The two were arguing as they were leaving the establishment, he said. Ward said Miles then broke up the fight as a police car passed on its regular route. Officers noticed the altercation and stopped. Because Miles was not directly involved in the fight, Kansas coach Bill Self said the player did not want to comment. Demby was issued a notice to appear in municipal court Dec. 1. Amanda O'Toole and Jesse Newell Liquor revenue grows Smoking ban doesn't hurt sales BY STEPHANIE FARLEY sfarley@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Patrick Conroy is losing a business he's owned for 16 years and says it's because of the smoking ban. Conroy deals in games, not alcohol. He owns Crown Amusement, which supplies more than 60 percent of Lawrence's bars, restaurants and hotels with video games, trivia machines, juke boxes, pinball and cigarette machines. "They like to smoke and so, therefore, if they can't smoke, they don't sit down. And they don't play the machines, and I've been hurt really, really bad there," Conroy said of bar patrons. At the time of Lawrence's smoking ban, Crown Amusement had three fulltime and one part time employee. Now, the business has two employees, including Conroy. Conroy estimated his business had decreased by 44 percent since the ban went into effect on July 1. Although people associated with the bar and restaurant industry says business is down, numbers from the Kansas Department of Revenue show people are still coming and there has not been a decrease in the amount of alcohol sold — there is actually a 0.9 percent increase in the amount of liquor being sold in Lawrence, according to the KDOR. In 2003, the average tax collected on drinks sold was $176,685,which increased 8.3 percent from the $163,171 collected in 2002. However, the 2002 amount is taken from August, September and October. The average tax collected in 2003 and 2004 only includes August and September. The numbers show there has been no dip in business, Fox said. Lawrence Michael Fox, associate professor in the Department of Health Policy and Management at the University of Kansas Medical Center, received a summary of the report from KDOR. According to the summary the average tax collected on all drinks sold in bars and restaurants in Lawrence in 2004 totals $178,199 — not including alcohol sold in liquor stores. A 10 percent tax is placed on every drink a bar or restaurant sells. "The tax numbers don't lie," Fox said. "This isn't a catastrophic an event as businesses are making it out to be." Fox said the smoking ban was more of a health issue, than an economic issue.

INTERNATIONAL Arafat death leads to fears of power vacuum in Palestine RAMALLAH, West Bank — Palestinians at home and abroad wept, waved flags and burned tires yesterday in an eruption of grief at the death of Yasser Arafat, the man they consider the father of their nation. The quick appointment of successors did little to dispel the huge question marks now hanging over Mideast peace efforts. Although Arafat's death at 75 led some world leaders to talk about the possibility of a new era, the outlook was also shadowed by fears of a chaotic transition and a strengthening of Islamic militants. The international funeral was to be held in Egypt, because few Arab leaders would travel to Israeli-controlled Palestinian land; Arafat was to be buried in the West Bank town of The burial arrangements in themselves showed how disrupted the region is. Ramallah because Israel refused to approve interment in Jerusalem; and mourners from the Gaza Strip would be barred from traveling across Israeli territory to Ramallah, a security official said. Though it had been expected for several days as he fell into a coma, Arafat's death stunned Palestinians and left them wondering who could possibly replace their leader of the last four decades. In France, where Arafat died before dawn Thursday after 13 nights in a Paris military hospital, eight pallbearers carried his flag-draped coffin past an honor guard Thursday evening as a military band played the French and Palestinian national anthems and a Chopin funeral march. The Palestinian legislature also swore in Speaker Rauhi Fattouh as caretaker president of the Palestinian Authority, the self-ruling power in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, though that position will likely have far less power than when Arafat held it.

Kansan staff report CORRECTIONS An article in the Friday, Nov. 5, issue of The University Daily Kansan needs clarification. The article, "Ethicist to discuss importance of business ethics," stated that Sean Fresen, Chicago junior, left the School of Business because he thought it taught students how to use greed to get ahead. Fresen left because he said he thought the school focused too much on large businesses over small businesses and non-profit organizations, not because of greed. The article also stated that Fresen said greed shapes people's goals. Fresen said greed can shape the goals of highly competitive individuals, not people in general. ■ Thursday's University Daily Kansan contained an error.

ATE Cast excited for 'Romeo and Juliet' opening night BY AUSTIN CASTER acaster@kansan.com KANSAI STAFF WRITER Beautiful costumes, elaborate fight scenes and a timeless love story will once again grace the stage of the Crafton-Preyton Theatre in Murphy Hall. William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet opens 7:30 tonight. The play tells the story of two star-crossed lovers born into dueling families. Jack Wright, professor of theater and film, directed the play at the University of Kansas in the spring of 1979. A committee made up of faculty, staff and students chooses which plays will be performed each year. He said the universal themes of struggle and first love would make audiences return to see the play again. Elisabeth Ahrens, who plays Juliet, said the story was one of her favorites. "When Shakespeare's really done well it's the story that comes alive." Wright said. The 26-member cast brings essence to the story, he said. "Romeo and Juliet was the first Shakespeare play I was required to read freshman year of high school," Ahrens, Topeka senior, said. "The love story is so beautiful. Hopefully the love story is something the audience can relate to." She said she immersed herself in the words and what the words meant. She took classes about Shakespearean text and read an edition of Romeo and Juliet with footnotes to prepare for her role. 'ROMEO AND JULIET' "I've tried to let the text speak through me," Ahrens Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet will be performed at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall. At all performances begin at 7:30 p.m.except a matine on Sunday,which begins at 2:30 p.m. Dates: dates. ■ Friday, Nov. 12 ■ Saturday, Nov. 13 ■ Sunday, Nov. 14 ■ Thursday, Nov. 18 ■ Friday, Nov. 19 ■ Saturday, Nov. 20 Tickets cost $10 for students, $15 for KU faculty and staff and senior citizens and $16 for general public.

Jason Schrage, a Lawrence senior who uses a wheelchair, traded places with Hemenway for the day. Hemenway attended Schrage's classes and picked up books at Anschutz and Watson libraries, while Schrage spent the day in meetings. Hemenway said the experience made him conscious of challenges faced by students with disabilities. "The only way to get that perspective is to actually get in the wheelchair itself," he said. Hemenway said he traded places to better understand what the University of Kansas could do for students with disabilities. Some issues he noticed were keeping wheelchair ramps clear and smooth and ensuring that curb-cuts were well-tended. Schrage said his experience taught him that the chancellor has to be well-versed and able to handle a lot of different issues and responsibilities. "You have to be a really good statesman to be able to juggle all of these things," Schrage said. The chancellor has a relentless job that never ends, he said. Hemenway traded places with a student in a wheelchair as chancellor of the University of Kentucky, where he worked before coming to the University of Kansas in 1995. This was also the fourth time Hemenway has traded places with a student for a day at the University of Kansas. In 1999 and 2001, he traded places with students who won the "Hemenway for a Day" raffle contest. In 2003, he traded places with a student who won a contest through Student Senate for registering to vote. — Ross Fitch IT'S EASTON'S LTD GOING OUT OF BUSINESS SALE ADDITIONAL MARKDOWNS TAKEN EVERYTHING IN THE STORE NOW 50% OFF TO 75% OFF SEVEN-PAPER DENIM JOE'S - AGAVE DENIM WAS 40% SAVE 50% HURRY FOR BEST SELECTION K.

OPINION FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN www.kansan.com EDITORIAL BOARD NCAA verdicts too lenient for Mizzou's violations Ahh, the Missouri men's basketball team. The squad that nearly every Jayhawk loves to hate. Last week, the NCAA passed down its final verdict regarding several violations leveled against the Tigers in 2003. The punishment: Three years of probation, a one year ban on off-campus recruiting and elimination of one scholarship for the current year and two in 2006-2007. Lenient is the least judgmental way to describe the NCAA's treatment of the team. At the start, the investigation pinned 17 violations to Missouri, ranging from paying its players to improper visits and contact with prospects. The infamous Ricky Clemons was the main source of the team's misery, first for being found guilty of beating his ex-girlfriend, and then for saying he received money from his coaches. His comments launched the investigation. The NCAA verified the Tigers' guilt with its verdict, but it also said something about the severity of the transgressions. Why give the rare penalty of restricting the Tigers to recruiting only on campus, instead of the better-known ban on post-season play? Thomas Yeager, chairman of the NCAA infractions committee, said the off-campus recruiting ban would send a message without punishing current student athletes on the team. Where was this logic when the committee banned Baylor from postseason play a year ago? If the Bears can be put on ban when no one from the time of violation is still part of the team or coaching staff, the same should apply to a Missouri squad that still has several players and coaches on the roster and payroll from the time of violation. The committee said they found no evidence — other than Clemons' testimony — to support the violation that coaches paid their players. If Clemons' word was good enough to launch an investigation, which found many violations, it's good enough to attest that coaches were slipping greenbacks to their players in the locker room. Secondly, the elimination of the one scholarship this year is almost less than a slap on the hand. The Tigers planned to discard the scholarship anyway. Why go through the formality of taking it away? The NCAA was far too gentle with Missouri for the number of violations that occurred. Giving the team a rare, yet minimal, punishment does little except raise questions about the organization's reasoning. At the very least, it raises investigation and inquiry questions; at the very worst, it reeks of favoritism. Please understand, we do not think the Tigers will come close to being chosen for postseason play. But we are giving them the benefit of the doubt, hence our grievance with the NCAA.

So, you can take time to recognize those soldiers and devil dogs, that's great. So I'm standing in front of Wescoe with a psychotic Bible-beater and surprise, surprise, he has a George Bush bumper sticker. Does anyone else have a problem with the bus driver taking his open-book driving test while he's driving the bus? So there's this girl on our floor who has way too much time on her hands. She keeps printing off signs about John Kerry, but the election's over and I feel bad for her because she has nothing better to do. instead of leaving the situation whenever exes shows up, you just pretend they aren't there.

Note Beeler/KRT CAMPUS Morals not defined by Christianity The election is over. It was the longest campaign this country has ever seen, practically four years in the making. But has anything been resolved? Does it really seem possible that this one day will solve the great divide that separates this nation? AMERICA AT A CROSSROADS The fact is we are still at a crossroads and there are national discussions that must take place. Morality must be the first topic. Twenty-two percent of voters cited moral issues as the most important voting topic. These supposedly include marriage, family, reproductive choice and bio-ethics. My question is who decided these were the only moral issues in the election? Does an issue become a moral issue only because a Christian leader says it is a question of morality? These are not the only moral issues I saw in the election. The war in Iraq and the right to health care were also moral questions. These two subjects deal directly with life and death. AMERICA AT A CROSSROADS We can not define our nation's morals on Christianity alone. This country is supposed to be the protector of religious freedom and therefore encourage a national discussion on our population's morality. We divide each other by throwing around terms like pro-life in respect to only abortion. I may support the women's right to choose but I am still pro-life. BLAKE SWENSON opinion@kansan.com The fact is we are still at a crossroads and there are national discussions that must take place. I disagree with the war for a multitude of reasons, but most importantly because it is literally government-sanctioned killing. This war has led to the death of real people with histories, futures, families and homes. Our invasion of Iraq has led to death totals of more than 1,100 American soldiers and 15,000 Iraqi civilians. How can someone call themselves pro-life and support a policy that leads directly to the end of life? What about health care? We live in the most affluent country in the world and you are telling me we can not afford health care for all our citizens. The most important role of government is to protect its citizens. I don't know when in history this protection was limited to military security, but protecting our nation's well-being is just as important. We all sign an implicit social contract upon our birth in this nation. I accept the social contract wholeheartedly. I have great faith in humanity and government because of this binding contract. Government was created to fight for equality, social justice and protect the collective interests of the citizens of the republic. What is the role of our government in morality and how do we define morality in an age when population growth is so great? This is the first in a series of articles I will write talking about the crossroads America has reached. I have asked a lot of questions because I want to see some response. Write letters to the editor or a guest column and let's start the dialogue here on campus. Both sides have a lot of assumptions about one another, but what is the truth? This is what we must learn to better the world. Swenson is a Topeka senior in political science. He works for the Kansas Democratic Party. Be mature when dealing with an ex It's one of those crazy Saturday nights. There was a football game at the stadium so traffic was hectic and it took 30 minutes to get anywhere. Well, Schuyler and I go to a party at a friend's house to hang out, drink, chill and all that. It was a wonderful party, great music, fun mix of people; I was having the time of my life. Then I see him, a boy who I had an on-again, off-again emotionally intense fling with, which led to my current level of distrust for boys. I am suddenly befuddled, not understanding what to do. I hadn't seen him in a while and was unsure of how to act. Crap. STEPHEN MOLES opinton@kansan.com SEX 101 So there are basically three ways you can deal with your ex in public: Avoid, ignore or accept. All have their pros and cons, so let's get into it. Avoid: This is the technique which consists of putting your effort into making sure you are never in the same place as exes. This consists of avoiding their usual hangouts, mutual friends, possibly common parties or, if they do show up, leaving. JERK 104 Pros: Never seeing them means no conflict. Cons: They still control your life. You end up putting a lot of energy into just staying away from them. And where they go ends up limiting how social you can be. Ignore: Similar to avoid, except So there are basically three ways you can deal with your ex-in public: avoid, ignore or accept. They all have their pros and cons, so let's get into it. Pros: It's intimidating to be completely ignored. If you use this technique you will usually have the power over the level of communication in the relationship. You can be civil, engage them in conversation and treat them as if they were alive. This doesn't mean you have to be best buds with them, or even like them, but accept the fact that they will be around in one way or another. Cons: You look like you're in eight grade. It's not mature and your friends will think you're a big baby. As for how I acted within the situation? I took the accept approach. It's the most mature and seemed appropriate. I went and talked to the jerk and actually had a decent time. Accept: Well, unfortunately, whether you like it or not, they were part of your life and will be around. (The University isn't that large of a place.) Of course, while sitting next to him on the porch, I realized that I still liked him. But I'm going to leave this tidbit of information that I got from about.com, because I think it's relevant: "As a general rule seeing a person you were once intimate with in an intimate situation with another person hurts. It hurts like heck." Dealing with an ex sucks. Use your judgment, be smart and most of all, if you still like them, make sure they don't know it.

But Phil Bradley, executive director for the Kansas Licensed Beverage Association, disagrees. in sociology. If there's no effect from the smoking ban, then the numbers should continue on a growth curve and be at least 8 percent as Lawrence's population and bars increased in 2004, and tax revenue numbers should reflect that, Bradley said. There was "a dramatic and significant decrease" in the number of drinks sold in relation to the increase of bars and people, he said. in 2003, Bradley said. The price of drinks has not increased in every bar and restaurant, but it has increased in enough places, Bradley said. The amount of tax collected on alcohol should be more, because drinks are more expensive, Bradley said. Some business owners such as Cheryl Bowman, owner of Astro's, 601 Kasold Drive, have lowered the prices of drinks to compete with other bars. Astro's sales have decreased 24 percent or about $10,000, since the smoking ban. Astro's has been in business for 15 Bowman said her bar was not the only one suffering because of the smoking ban. years. Conroy said another company, which he wouldn't name, was looking into taking over Crown Amusement. "I know half of my company is gone," Connoy said.

Mucci said students say they always want the most healthful choice. Mark Nola, Wichita senior, said he ate at The Underground twice a week. "I sure think the food is unhealthy," he said as he ate a personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut topped with parmesan cheese. Myers said business for the Market at the Kansas Union business at the Kansas Union had dropped 15 to 20 percent since The Underground opened. "We're shifting money around, not taking money away," he said. Mucci said any money The Underground made would go to paying back the more than $2 million price tag for the renovation. Profits also go back into paying for maintenance for the unions. The Underground has had its share of problems. The credit card machines at The Underground take 30 seconds to process, which creates longer lines, said Mike Reid, director of business and information services for KU Memorial Unions. The Underground was supposed to have credit card machines that took one to three seconds to process, but up-to-par software won't be available until next semester. Reid said. The Underground's floor has also been a source of complaints. Myers said. He said the floor had cracked, buckled and collapsed in places. He said he didn't know why it was happening, but he was working with the food court's architects to correct the problem. He said construction crews needed at least a week to make repairs, so they would have to wait until Thanksgiving break or winter break. Although major construction is complete, The Underground may undergo changes in the future. "It's going to take us six months to figure out what's working and what isn't," Mucci said. Myers said the Underground would have outdoor seating next year, because he didn't think it would fit into this year's budget. Extended hours for the Underground will not be considered this year, Myers said. He said he wasn't going to consider any menu changes until later, either. The Underground administrators will research buying habits and listen to customer comments to find out how to improve The Underground, he said. Mucci said future students had to be considered. Because students who are in junior high school now would be at the University in about five years. Underground administrators had to think about what they wanted. "Taste and sensibilities change so fast anymore," Mucci said. CHARITY: Community helping - Edited by Bill Cross CONTINUED FROM 1A America and Russian soup, bread and salad. The food will have a more homey and traditional flavor, unlike the food that you get in restaurants, Banerjee said. Zafar will be preparing some of the deserts for the dinner. Her desserts will be traditional American dishes, such as cookies and brownies, but America is international too, Banerjee said. Fighting in west Sudan broke out in February 2003. Ethnic and political conflict in Darfur has displaced 1.6 million people, according to the Associated Press. UNICEF is working with other aid agencies to provide desperately needed food, shelter, water and sanitation for children and families living in overcrowded, makeshift refuge camps, Banorie said. The International dinner, which is an annual event, will be at 6 p.m. today in the First Presbyterian Church, 2415 Clinton Parkway. Donations for the event are $8 and $5 for children 6 years old and younger. The group has already sold 35 tickets for the event. Last year an estimated 80 people donated and joined the international dinner. Last year the group sold less than 10 tickets before the event. The student group, made of members from all over the world studying at the University of Kansas, coordinated three main fundraisers for the semester. Most of the food for the dinner will be prepared by students and will include chicken curry, pulao, chickpea curry and rice pudding from India; enchiladas and quessillo from South The group's goal is to raise more than $1,000 from the event. An auction at the dinner will also help to raise funds. People from the Lawrence community have donated items that will be auctioned off tonight. There has been an overwhelming response by the community. Banerjee said. Other fundraisers this year have shown success already. The group had a goal of $1,000 for its online campaign as well and has already raised $530. In October the fundraiser Trick-or-Treat, where group members and volunteers from local elementary schools took orange boxes with them for donations while they trick or-treating. The event raised more than $400. The next fundraiser will be in December selling greeting cards. The cards will have an international and multi-religious theme will be sold before finals week at the lobby in the Kansas Union. — Edited by Ashley Doyle 手指 JIMY JOHN Since 1983 WORLD'S GREATEST GOURMET SANDWICHES $2.75 PLAIN SLIMS™ Any Sub minus the veggies and sauce SLIM 1 Ham & cheese SLIM 2 Roast Beef SLIM 3 Tuna salad SLIM 4 Turkey breast SLIM 5 Salami, capicola, cheese SLIM 6 Double provolone Low Carb Lettuce Wrap JJ UNWICH™ Same ingredients and price of the sub or club without the bread.

For many, this season is their first time playing floor hockey. "I think we play in all of the intramural sports, every season," said Amber Otto, Spring Hill sophomore. "It's sometimes hard to get enough women every week, but we have our regulars who are always there." For some of the girls, it gives them a opportunity to try something they wouldn't ordinarily be exposed to. "I really enjoy this sport. I like that we're doing just a women's team and that it's aggressive," said Suzette Runyan, Vassar sophomore. "I like the fact that there can be a little contact and we're not going to get in trouble. Floor hockey is my favorite intramural sport now." Both teams took the time to warm up, but once the action began, it was hard to keep up. Alpha Gamma Shinipad showed its teamwork from the beginning, taking an early lead in the first period. Douthart's Runyan answered with a goal in the middle of the period, but Douthart couldn't produce offensively. Natalie Hoogveld, Calgary, Alberta graduate student, shot the ball in at the buzzer to give Alpha Gamma Shinpad a 4-1 lead at the end of the first "I really enjoy this sport.I like that we're Suzette Runyan Vassar sophomore doing just a women's team and that it's aggressive.I like the fact that there can be a little contact and we're not going to get in trouble." Instead of the usual one-one battle often seen in intramural games, the six girls of Alpha Gamma Shinpad used multiple passes, teamwork and a lot of running to score. period. Douthart scored at the beginning of the third period, but was unable to make a comeback. Alpha Gamma Shinpad eventually won, 13-2. In the second period, Alpha Gamma Shinpad dominated completely, extending its lead to 9-1 at the end of the second period. Every Alpha Gamma Shinpad team member, except goalie Gonzalez, scored. Now that the regular season is over, Douthart's goal is to improve as a team for the playoffs.

Wichita State, picked by conference coaches to finish second in the Missouri Valley Conference, hit six straight free throws in the final seconds to put the game away.

SUNDAY Football vs. Texas 11 a.m. Men's basketball vs. Washburn (exh.) 7 p.m. That's because the Rams have failed to capitalize on one of the biggest comebacks of the season in the NFL, a game $SI.com$ calls the best of the first half of the season. After beating the Bucs to go 4-2, they've followed up with losses to the previously winless Dolphins and the wounded Patriots, who had neither of their starting cornerbacks before beating St. Louis 40-22. Rams' late victory rescues potential losing season THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ST. LOUIS — A month ago, the St. Louis Rams scored 17 points in the final 5 1/2 minutes of regulation and then beat the Seattle Seahawks in overtime to rescue what appeared to be a hopelessly lost game. To coach Mike Martz, it's not the losses but the way they've lost that's been the most galling. Martz called his team out twice during the buildup to Sunday's game, saying he was tired of making excuses and that it was time for the players to step up. "Certainly, this week we've got to get out of this little rut we're in," quarterback Marc Bulger said. "If we can get back on a roll that would be great. Giving Seattle more momentum, it would be tough to catch them." When the Rams (4-4) face the Seahawks (5-3) Sunday, they'll be trying to rescue their season. Win and they're tied atop the NFC West. Lose and they'll be two games back with seven to play. I” think the way we've played the last two games is embarrassing." Mike Martz St. Louis Rams coach Then on Wednesday the team held a full-contact scrimmage. "I'm not happy with how we're playing, period, regardless of a division race or anything else," Martz said. "I think the way we played the last two games is embarrassing." Coughing up that 17-point lead threw the Seahawks into their own rut. The defeat was the first of three in a row before they righted themselves with victories the last two weeks over the Panthers and 49ers. Coach Mike Holmgren said the loss to the Rams was a textbook case of how a perfect day can unravel. The Seahawks, favored in the preseason to unseat the Rams, had been firmly in control until late in the fourth quarter. Unlike Martz, who's refusing to take the blame for anything these days, Holmgren said he's at fault for giving Matt Hasselbeck too much responsibility recently.

The Longhorns have the top rushing attack in the Big 12 Conference, and they rank second nationally at 506.7 yards per game. The attack is led by running back Cedric Benson, who is the leading rusher in the Big 12. Quarterback Vincent Young is also a threat to run the ball; he has nearly 700 yards rushing for the year. Kansas will start walk-on quarterback John Nielsen, who took over for injured junior Jason Swanson last week against Colorado. Kansas' defense has been strong all year, but the Texas offense is too tough to match. Edge: Texas Quarterback Only Texas Tech has a higher-ranked scoring offense in the Big 12 than Texas. Leading that offense is the job of Young, who has the fifth-best pass efficiency rating in the Big 12. Kansas' quarterback situation is a bit more tenuous. With sophomore starter Adam Barmann and junior back-up Jason Swanson both out with shoulder injuries, Kansas is down to Nielsen and senior Brian Luke, who has shown a propensity for fumbling the football. Nielsen threw for more than 150 yards last Saturday, but he's an unproven player. Young is a strong quarterback in an offense that relies on the run. If it weren't for their quarterback injuries, the Jayhawks might have a chance. Edge: Texas Running Back Texas is the only Big 12 team averaging more than 306 yards per game on the ground, and Benson is the only Big 12 player who has rushed for more than 15 touchdowns this season. He has 17 touchdowns and 1,438 yards this season. Kansas' running back tandem of sophomore John Randle and junior Clark Green has been slowed considerably by different injuries during the last several games. Neither ranks in the top 12 of Big 12 rushers, but Randle is seventh in all-purpose yards with 1.057. Randle may rival Benson's skills down the road, but he's still developing. Edge: Texas Wide Receivers With Nielsen at quarterback, the Jayhawks will have a limited ability to throw the ball deep to their wide receivers. The Kansas receiving corps is led by senior Brandon Rideau and junior Mark Simmons, who have combined for 800 yards receiving and nine touchdowns. Texas throws to tight end Bo Scaife often; he has 17 grabs for 304 yards and four touchdowns. While the Longhorns average only 153.7 yards passing per game compared to the Jayhawks' 208.7, they still have the threat of throwing deep with Young. Young must beware of Charles Gordon, however, as Gordon leads the conference with six interceptions. With the Kansas offense's inability to throw deep, look for the Longhorn wide receivers to have a good day. Offensive Line Edge: Texas With one of the best rushing offenses in the country, the Longhorns are bound to have one of the best offensive lines. This offensive line is opening up big holes for Benson and Young to run through. running backs to gain yards. The Jayhawks are averaging just 2.8 yards per carry. With Texas' ability to run the football, the edge goes to the Longhorns. Edge: Texas Linebackers Kansas' junior combo of linebackers have been some of the best in the conference. Rivaling them for "Best-of-the-Big-12" honors is Texas. Both Kansas and Texas have two linebackers among the top 20 in total tackles. Kansas' Nick Reid is second overall with 89, while Texas senior Derrick Johnson is third overall with 78. Texas' linebacker corps is a combination of experienced players and one who has only started recently. Leading the way is Johnson with three letters. On the flipside is junior Eric Hall, who has been with the team for just one season. Joining Reid for Kansas is Kevin Kane, who is second on the team in tackles with 58 tackles. Edge: Even protecting eight sacks during the year. Kansas, on the other hand, has not been suc- cessful allow- ring its Stubbs Defensive Line The defensive linemen have stopped the run well, also. They are allowing just over 120 yards rushing per contest, fifth in the conference. But the Kansas defensive line is better against the run. The Longhorns have been successful getting pressure on the opposing quarterback, and they have 11 sacks on the season. Defensive end Tim Crowder anchors the Texas line, who has three sacks on the season. The Jahawks are giving up 112 yards per contest and have allowed the fewest rushing touchdowns in the conference with seven. Tony Stubbs John Nielsen competing with Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops, but he has not had a problem with Mark Mannine on the Texas coach Mack Brown is one of the most successful coaches in college football. After he left North Carolina for Texas, North Carolina declined and Texas surged to being a perennial contender. Coaches Brown has had a difficult time with Mark Mangino on the one occasion they faced each other. Mangino should be giver credit for all that he has accomplished, especially in light of all the injuries his team has accumulated. But as he is fond of saying, injuries are a part of college football. If Mangino could squeak out a win in this game, he could definitely make an argument for Coach of the Year. Until then, though, we tip our hats to Brown. Edge: Texas Edited by Bill Cross Nix Shaving! Affordable Hair Removal Get the smooth skin you want with Laser Hair Remov Nix Shaving!

PAGE 6A SPORTS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2004 www.kansan.com THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Jayhawks need top 2 to keep on running Emotions will be running high as the Kansas cross country teams line up at the NCAA Midwest Regional Championships tomorrow in Peoria, Ill. BY FRANK TANKARD ftankard@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The competition will be stiff in the men's race. Kansas is ranked fourth in the region behind Oklahoma State, Iowa and Minnesota by the U.S. Cross Country Coaches Association. If the Jlayhawks place in the top two out of the 27 men's and 30 women's teams competing, they will go to the NCAA Championships on Nov. 22. If they don't, an at-large bid will be their only chance of prolonging the season. For the two seniors competing for the Hawks, Megan Manthe on the women's team and Chris Jones on the men's squad, this could be their last race. The last time the Jayhawks made it to the NCAA Championships was 1994, when both the men's and women's teams qualified. "It's going to be incredibly emotional," said Jones, Iowa City, Iowa, native. "The reason I came here was to get to nationals. It's been longer than I thought, but hopefully this will be the year." At the Big 12 Championships on Oct. 30, Kansas finished just six points and one place behind Oklahoma State, which ranks first in the region and won the regional meet last year. Kansas lost to both Minnesota and Iowa the only time they faced off this year, at the Roy Griak Invitational on Sept. 25. In addition to the automatic qualifiers, the NCAA will pick 13 teams that have accumulated the most at-large points. Points are earned by beating a team at any point during the season that places in the top two in its region. The Jawhawks haven't beaten any teams ranked in the top 30 this season, so the chances of getting an at-large bid appear to be slim. "We need to be thinking about finishing in the top two," Kansas distance coach Doug Clark said. "And if we don't get top two, we've got to cross our fingers." Clark said a key for the team, which placed fourth at the conference meet, would be running in a tight pack. At the Big 12 Championships, the time between the top Jayhawk finisher, sophomore Benson Chesang, who won the 8-kilometer race in 24:07.43, and the team's fifth finisher, Chris Jones, was 1 minute, 38 seconds. "We know we need to run better in a group," Jones said. "Each man needs to step up in his position." Oklahoma State's gap between its first and fifth finishers at the meet was only 32 seconds. Clark said the women's team, which is coming off a 10th place finish at the Big 12 Championships, would be looking for one of its highest finishes of the season. Last year the team also placed 10th at the Big 12 Championships, then came in fifth at the regional meet. "We did it last year, and I'm looking for us to do it again," she said. "We just need to pull together and run how we're able to." Manthe said she thought the team could repeat its high regional showing. At the Big 12 Championships, Manthe and sophomore Laura Major both ran injured. Manthe finished first on the team despite a stress fracture in her left foot, and Major didn't complete the race because of a hip injury. Manthe said the team's strategy, like the men, would be to run in a pack. The Jayhawks will face three teams ranked in the top 30 nationally. Missouri ranks ninth, Illinois ranks 16th and Oklahoma State ranks 26th. Mante will compete tomorrow, but not Major. SOCCER The women's 6-kilometer race will start at 11 a.m. followed by the men's 10-kilometer race at noon. Results will be posted at kuathletics.com. — Edited by Ashley Doyle Tourney kicks off today BY KELLIE ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITER the Kansas women's soccer team begins its quest for a national championship today at 2 p.m. against Creighton. The Jayhawks hope to repeat the performance they had on Aug. 21, when they wowed fans with a 6-1 exhibition victory over the Blue Jays. Kansas, the eighth seed, plays Creighton in the first round of the tournament. The team is weary of putting much emphasis on that game, said junior forward Caroline Smith, because two Creighton starters, goalkeeper Valerie Zimmerer and mid-fielder Ivonne Valentin, didn't play in the contest. "We can't really base anything on that first game," Smith said. "That was three months ago, and both of us have changed so much since." Zimmerer made her collegiate debut in Creighton's 10th match, and posted a stellar 0.72 goal against average for the season. Valentin recorded four goals for the year, and earned Missouri Valley Conference first-team honors. C. SMITH Overall, Creighton managed only a 9-7-4 record, but the team came on late in the season, defeating Indiana State and Drake to win the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament, and an automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament. "Obviously they've gotten better as the season has gone on," said coach Mark Francis. "They'll be prepared to play us and I think it will be a good game." This is the second consecutive year that the Blue Jays have been sent on the road to play a seeded team in the tournament's first round. Last year Creighton opened up at defending national champion Santa Clara, losing 5-1. Six players that took the field in that game are still on this year' roster, with three of them being starters. Kansas counters with the experience of reaching last year's Sweet Sixteen. The Jayhawks did all their work on the road last season, and will find their path back to the tournament's third round a much easier task at home, Francis said. "Going to Missouri when we were seeded last year was tough," Francis said. "Getting to play here in front of your home fans is a real boost." Kansas' offense has been on fire lately, scoring at least two goals in its last three games. The last time Kansas played at home the team recorded four goals. Alpha Gamma Shinpad wins BY JESSICA FERGEN ifergen@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER Douthart remains winless at 0-3 Turns out, soccer players can hold their own on the floor hockey court as well. Alpha Gamma Shinpad, made entirely of former Kansas women's soccer players, beat Douthart 13-2. You may not have heard of the sorority Alpha Gamma Shinpad, because it isn't a real sorority. Maggie Mason, Elmira, Ontario, senior describes it as a soccer sorority. "We spent so much time together, we figured we were kind of like a sorority." said goalie Sarah Gonzalez, Overland Park graduate student. Douthart, a women's scholarship hall, didn't have the Alpha Gamma Shinpad's cohesiveness. The team was 0-2 before the game. The players worked well together, but they were no match for the teamwork and athleticism of their opponent The Douthart is unique because its the only female scholarship hall that plays every intramural sport — both women's and co-rec. The players "don't-knock it-till you've-tried-it" attitude is the reason RL PATROL SEE INTRAMURAL ON PAGE 6A Hilla Rantala, Heelsinki, Finland, graduate student, breaks down the rink in Tuesday night's intramural floor hockey game.

The Jayhawks will have another exhibition game against Washburn at 7 p.m. on Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse. Kansas prepares for 'good competition' BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITHER "It was funny because I was joking around with my teammates and they called my name," Galindo said. "I didn't know what to do. I wasn't nervous or anything, but it caught me by surprise. I didn't know what was going on." The Jayhawk freshman forward admitted to being less than prepared to enter in the first half of last Sunday's exhibition game against Emporia State, thinking coach Bill Self would only play him a few minutes in the second half. Galindo and the Jayhawks will have their final opportunity to prepare for the regular season at 7 p.m. Sunday, taking on the Washburn Ichabods in Allen Fieldhouse. The team will look to continue its momentum after its 115-70 victory against Emporia State. "We'll see if we can build off what we did," Self said. "We still won't do a ton of stuff. We'll save that for once we start playing regular season games. It will be nice to go against good competition, which Washburn is." Alex Galindo promises he'll be ready this time. The Ichabods of Topeka have been ranked preseason No. 5 in Division II by the National Association of Basketball Coaches, returning eight letter-winning players from last year's 27-5 team. Washburn also gave an impressive performance in its first exhibition game at Purdue, losing 81-72 after trailing by just four points with 2:59 left in the game. "With the way they played Purdue the other night. I can't imagine them not coming in here and giving us a great game," Self said. "This may be the best exhibition team that Kansas has played in a while because they are well coached, have good players and have experience." Self said he knew from his previous coaching experience at Illinois that playing at Purdue's Mackey Arena provided a difficult task for any visiting team, much less a Division II school. "I've been to Purdue and lost by double figures a couple of times." Self said. "I do know that's not an easy place to go." Self also knows first-hand how dangerous Washburn can be. In fact, the Ichabods' last victory against a Division 1 school came against Oklahoma State when Self was a player for the Cowboys. The Ichabods on the regular-season game 67-66 on Nov. 29, 1984. Self said Kansas would look to improve its post defense, especially focusing on Washburn's 6-foot-6 senior center Travis Robbins. The criteria for retired jerseys expanded before the 2002-03 season, and now includes consensus first-team All-Americans, two-time first-team All-Americans and Academic All-American of the Year selections. This year's honorees will bring the total to 24 men's players and two women's players with jerseys retired at the Fieldhouse. Bridges will be the first recognized at Kansas' Dec. 9 game against Texas Christian. Robbins, who averaged 13 points off the bench last season, posted 25 points and seven rebounds against Purdue. The five players — Bill Bridges, Walter Wesley, Dave Robisch, Bud Stallworth and Darnell Valentine — will be recognized as part of the celebration of Allen Fieldhouse's 50th anniversary. Kansas basketball notes The University of Kansas will retire the jerseys of five former basketball players during games this season, Athletics Department officials announced yesterday. Kansas will play Sunday's game with a slightly different set of rules. The changes include an international threepoint line, located 20 feet, six inches from the rim instead of 19 feet, nine inches, an expanded lane similar to the NBA's and a semicircle in the lane where no player can take a charge. The Jayhawks practiced this week with white tape on the Allen Fieldhouse court, simulating possible rule changes that could go into effect next season.

PAGE 1B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN VOL.115 ISSUE 61 SPORTS MONDAY, NOVEMBER 15,2004 Better Bites removing inaccurate stickers BY AMANDA O'TOLE aotoole@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER A red-and-white striped bag of TG1 Friday's Potato Skins sat in slot B3 of the vending machine on the third floor of Fraser Hall. The 50 cent bag of chips was labeled with the Better Bites logo, a small green stick figure with a heart torso. That's one of the reasons why Daisy Deknight, Lawrence Better Bites senior, chose the chips for her pre-class snack last week. She said she tried to stay away from sugars and fats as much as possible and she usually used the University's Better Bites program to aid her vending-machine decisions. The stickers hadn't been updated yet this fall. Deknight's healthy snack wasn't that healthy. It contained 80 calories of fat, 53 percent of the 150 total calories. One bag had nine grams of fat and one-and-a-half grams of saturated fat. Ann Chapman, Better Bites coordinator and student health services administrator, said new labels were in the process of being loaded. All machines should have the proper tags within the next week. Until then, students will have to go beyond looking for the green sticker to make a healthier decision. www.kansan.com There's just one problem. Better Bites is a program that was implemented to help students make healthier eating decisions. Labels appeared in vending machines two years ago, Chapman said. She said she felt the program had been effective despite problems of mislabeling. "They have not been put into the machines this semester," Chapman said. "The stocker must have started to put things anywhere there were holes." That's what Chapman said probably happened with the chips Deknight had purchased last week. SEE BETTER BITES ON PAGE 6A Chapman said the labels are partly to blame for the delay in re-labeling food products. The tags used in the past were just like stickers, which would sometimes be knocked around by falling food. Other snack foods that were mislabeled last week were Almond Joy, Mac's Hot and Spicy Pork Rinds, TGI Friday's Potato Skins and Butterfingers. H.O.P.E. awarded Stephen Ilardi wins award voted on by University seniors By ROSS FITCH ritch@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Educator (H.O.P.E.) Award. The University of Kansas senior class made its choice Saturday when Stephen Ilardi was awarded the 2004 Honor for an Outstanding Progressive The University's Board of Class Officers presented the award to Ilardi, associate professor of psychology, in between the third and fourth quarters of the KU-Texas football game. Ilardi received a $300 prize and his name was added to the H.O.P.E. Award plaque in the Kansas Union. Given annually for more than 45 years, the H.O.P.E. Award remains the only award at the University decided exclusively by students. Because the recipient is decided on by students, Iardi said it is the most meaningful award he has received. "It is a validation of the fact that, when a professor follows their passion, students respond to that," he said. "It's something I will cherish forever." Students taking tardi's abnormal psychology class said he was an exceptional teacher because of his ability to connect them to the psychological realm. Rylan Howe/KANSAN SEE H.O.P.E.

Ryan Howe/KANSAN Fieldhouse still without wireless Miscommunication delays Internet access for basketball campers BY LAURA FRANCOVIGLIA francoviglia@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Devoted KU students who regularly camp out before men's basketball games were supposed to have wireless Internet access at their camp sites in Allen Fieldhouse by now. Installation has been delayed, however, because of miscommunication between Student Senate, Information Services and the University of Kansas Athletics Corporation. "Somewhere the ball got dropped," said Arthur Jones, Student Executive Committee chair. The idea for wireless Internet access in Allen Fieldhouse was an attempt to help the campers with laptops and personal digital assistants (PDAs) who camp out during their two- to three-hour shifts for up to a week before game days. Student Senate funded a bill to install wireless Internet in the fieldhouse by Nov. 1, before the first basketball game, an exhibition against Emporia State on Nov. 7. The Senate bill allocated $45,000 on Sept. 15 to pay for wireless installation in student areas. Besides the fieldhouse, other designated areas included: Wescoe Beach, auditorium and the third and fourth floors of Wescoe Hall, the lawn of Fraser Hall, Budig Hall's auditorium and hallwalls and Snow Hall's main entrance. All of the areas now have wireless Internet except the fieldhouse. "From our end, we paid for it," Jones, Dallas junior, said. "I assumed athletics was on board with this." When Jones realized after Nov. 1 that wireless Internet had not been installed in the fieldhouse, he met with the Athletic Department and Networking This is the most frustrating process I've ever done in my entire life. I care about this. I camp out. I want this to happen." Arthur Jones Student Executive Committee chair and Telecommunications Services to discuss the possibility of installation. Jim Marchiony, associate athletic director, said that his understanding was that the installation costs had been funded, but the annual upkeep fee was not. "We told them that wasn't in our budget," Marchiony said. "Students need to work out the funding. If they couldn't find the funding, we told them to come back and see us." Marchiony said when the funding for the wireless Internet was established, the wireless Internet would be installed immediately, though he didn't have an estimate of when installation would take place. jones said he was making phone calls everyday to keep communication open with the Athletic Department. "This is the most frustrating process I've ever done in my entire life." Jones said. "I care about this. I camp out. I want this to happen." Marilu Goodyear, vice provost for Information Services, said once negotiations between Student Senate and the KUAC were decided and Information Services receives the order to install wireless Internet in the fieldhouse's public areas, "we will do so as quickly as technically possible." Goodyear said Information Services was the service provider and was not responsible for any negotiations. — Miranda Lenning contributed to this story. KU Hillel observes Shabbat - Edited by Steve Schmidt BY ANDY HYLAND ahyland@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Elizabeth Stopsky was one of many either playing gin or milling around before dinner at KU Hillel's Shabbat 300 Friday night. Also like many, the St. Louis senior was a first-time attendee at the event. "I never came before, but this is my last semester," she said. "I just wanted to be a part of it." people as possible to celebrate Shabbat, a weekly Jewish tradition. This year, Hillel got around 400 students and Lawrence community members to celebrate the occasion in the Kansas Union last Friday, surpassing its goal of 300 people. Shabbat marks the day God rested when creating the world. The rest period lasts from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday, and Orthodox Jews observe Shabbat by not using cars or electricity and resting. The annual event recruits as many However, many students are not Orthodox, so they concentrate on remembering Shabbat rather than observing it. Jay Lewis, executive director of KU Hillel, said those are the two things people are called to do. He said the event, which featured a Shabbat service and a dinner afterwards, was a sign of Hillel's strength on campus. "I'm an alum, and we never could have dreamed of something like this," Lewis, a 1993 KU graduate, said.

KC to vote on smoking ban THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Anti-smoking advocates are pushing an ambitious proposal that would ban smoking in public places on both sides of the state line in the Kansas City metropolitan area. The Kansas City Council is expected to vote Nov. 23 on a smoke-free law that would ban smoking in most workplaces and a host of public places, including bowling alleys, pool halls and stores. would eliminate smoking in Kansas City bars and restaurants and is pinned on the passage of smoking bans in Jackson, Platte, Clay and Cass counties in Missouri and Johnson and Wwandotte counties in Kansas. But the more expansive proposal City Councilman Charles Eddy, who is leading the council's anti-smoking campaign, said Kansas City would not approve the restaurant and bar ban unless an undetermined majority of the metropolitan population has smoking ordinances in place. Eddy said that would protect businesses from having customers flee for establishments in neighboring communities without bans in place. "I really believe the region will buy into this." Eddy said.

Sebelius proposes cigarette tax THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TOPEKA — Governor Kathleen Sebelius is facing criticism for proposing a cigarette tax increase, but other alternatives for financing her health care proposals appear even less attractive. Sebelius says tobacco taxes are the logical source of revenue because tobacco use generates big medical costs. But her choice could prove shrewd politically largely because nonsmokers far outnumber smokers. "If you want a bill to pass, the fewer people who hate it, the better," said House Taxation Committee Chairman John Edmonds (R-Great Bend). "She's taken the better strategy." They want the state to cover medical services for an additional 70,000 Kansans. They also propose having the state subsidize private insurance plans to make them affordable for both small businesses and their low-wage workers. Sebelius needs $50 million a year for the "HealthyKansas" program she and Insurance Commissioner Sandy Praeger outlined last week. Their plan would increase the state's cigarette tax by 50 cents a pack, to $1.29. Also, the tax on other tobacco products would rise to 15 percent from 10 percent. Legislators in both parties said Sebelius will have a tough time selling any tax increase, given the mood of voters in this year's elections. However, many voters also worried about rising insurance premiums and prescription drug costs, and Sebelius said nearly 300,000 Kansans remain uninsured. chamber's tax committee. "There clearly is a public will to have a solution." "There's a sense that we absolutely need to do something," said Sen. Janis Lee (D-Kensington), a member of her Of course, there are reasons to avoid raising tobacco taxes to pay for health care proposals. The state raised its cigarette tax in 2002 to the current 79 cents from 24 cents to help prevent a budget shortfall. Some legislators believe adding an additional 50 cents a pack will push Kansas smokers to buy cigarettes outside the state. Smokers and tobacco companies question the fairness of having, a relatively small group of people pay for broad public health initiatives. A recent national study indicated about one-fifth of Kansens smoke. Sebelius is betting Kansans would respond to raising tobacco taxes as voters did recently in other states, where they approved large increases in cigarette taxes.

WORLD Temporary successor evades gunfire at Arafat mourning GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Mahmoud Abbas, the temporary successor to Yasser Arafat, escaped unharmed Sunday when militants firing assault rifles burst into a mourning tent for the deceased Palestinian leader, killing two security guards and wounding six people. The shooting raised concerns about a violent power struggle in the post-Arafat era. Gunmen shouted slogans calling Abbas, a moderate who has spoken out against violence, an agent of the United States. The bursts of gunfire came just hours after Palestinian officials set Jan. 9 as the date for elections to choose a new leader.

The student group sponsored a date auction Friday night at a packed Moon Bar, 821 Iowa St., to raise money for events in the spring. Eleven women and two men were open for bidding and brought in more than $500. However, some of the bids were not collected, leaving some volunteers without a date. "I wish it was more organized," Victoria Li, Overland Park junior and AASU president, said. "We were not prepared for so many people." The surprise of the night came with the auction of KU men's basketball player J.R. Giddens. Giddens was the last person to be auctioned off, and brought in $50. After the bidding was over, nine couples went to dinner together Saturday night in KoKoRo, 601 Kasold Drive, a Japanese sushi and steakhouse. "Instead of everyone going on separate dates, we all went together." Li said. "So, everyone feels comfortable." Participants volunteered to be auctioned. More people volunteered than was necessary so the group had to ask for some volunteers to drop. Most of the par- We were not prepared for so many people." " wish it was more organized. Victoria Li Overland Park junior and AAU president I ticipants who dropped were male. Derek Zarda, Shawnee junior, was the one man that put himself up for bidding. There was no backing out for Zarda after he had told many of his friends to come and support the event. "I stayed on because I'm curious to see what happens," Zarda said before he was auctioned. Not getting any bids wouldn't upset the three-year member of AASU, he said. Zarda is a DJ for KJHK, 90.7, on Breakfast for Beat Lowers on Thursdays. He helped with advertising for the event by announcing it on the station. Thirty minutes before Zarda went up for the auction he said he was nervous about getting bids. He worried that no one would bid on him because he was the only white guy up for bid. A near-by friend reassured "The turnout is great," Zarda said. "It ups my chances." him that that wouldn't matter and no one would be able to resist his cute face. Zarda blushed and kept dancing until it was time for him to go up for bidding. A date with Zarda was sold for $30. Jessica Phan, Overland Park freshman, also did some recruiting for the event and tried to up her bids by wearing a school girl outfit. "I know I'm going to have a lot of fun," she said. Phan wore a white collared shirt and a plaid, pleated skirt and her smile grew with every bid. The final bid was $60. Dan Kreci, Olathe sophomore, had the winning bid of $90 for Sarah Scearcy, Brainard, Minn., junior. He said Scearcy was his good friend. "It's a lot of money, but she is awesome and she's worth it," Kreji said. The AASU has seen more participation this year with up to 50 active members, Li said. There are 997 Asian graduate and undergraduate students at the University of Kansas according to Fall 2004 enrollment numbers. There were 170 Asian freshman that enrolled at the University this semester. This is down from 185 first-time freshman that enrolled in Fall 2003. - Edited by Ashley Bechard Victoria Li, Overland Park junior, is the first to be auctioned in the Asian American Student Union date auction. The auction was held at the Moon Bar, 821 Iowa St., on Friday night. Ginny Weatherman/KANSAN University presidential salaries increase across country THE ASSOCIATED PRESS they remain a small minority. Tuition is rising sharply and many schools are still fighting through budget cuts. But the salaries of the highest-paid college presidents are also increasing, according to a survey out Monday. The number of University presidents earning more than half a million dollars jumped again this year — though overall Seventeen presidents of public universities and systems will earn more than $500,000 this year, up from 12 last year and six the year before, according to The Chronicle of Higher Education's compensation survey. Tuition at four-year public colleges rose 10.5 percent this year. At private colleges and universities, the number of presidents earning more than $500,000 rose from 27 to 42 in fiscal 2003, the last year for which data are available for the private institutions. Johns Hopkins University President William Brody's total compensation of $897,786 topped all college presidents. The University of Washington's Mark Emmert is the top earner among public presidents, with a package that will total $762,000 in pav and benefits. Several education experts said the figures aren't necessarily a sign of excess, given the competition for strong leaders, who are at least as valuable in tough times as in flush ones. Many of the top earners preside over complex institutions and manage thousands of employees. At schools like Johns Hopkins, they also oversee teaching hospitals. "Certainly in the private sector you'd be paying four, five, six times more for the same function," said David Ward, president of the American Council on Education, which represents universities. Jim Boyle, president of College Parents of America, said high salaries aren't necessarily a problem, since finding a strong leader can hold tuition down in the long run. Still, the figures concern some observers. "I don't underestimate the important work they do," said Roger Bowen, general secretary of the American Association of University Professors and a former president in New York's state university system. "But I think they're starting to look more like CEOs than college presidents, and I think public trust is a real issue."

STAYSKAL TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES 4/64 Let's close racial gap in academics It's no great mystery why non-Asian minority students have low graduation rates. But college administrators act like it is. You can scarcely walk through a college campus without coming across a flyer crowing about the need for more diversity. Universities are committed to the point of obsession to boosting minority retention rates. Minority designated scholarships, mentor and tutoring programs all strive to boost retention rates. However well-intentioned and worthwhile these efforts may be, they fail to tackle the real heart of the problem. Minority retention rates for non-Asian minorities are low because as a group they have poor academic skills. FRESH ARRAH The National Assessment of Educational Progress dubbed "the nation's report card" finds that the average African-American or Hispanic high school senior scored lower in all seven subjects tested than 80 percent of white students tested. In "No Excuses: Closing the Racial Gap in Learning" authors Abigail and Steven Thernstroms conclude from examining NAEP data that: "The college that admits the average black student is, in effect, choosing a youngster who had made it only through eighth grade." All the diversity initiatives and tutoring in the world can't make up for deficient academic skills. Students who arrive at college without the baseline of academic skills necessary to do college work aren't likely to acquire them before graduation. And according to a 2003 study released by the U.S. Department of Education they are --- ARRAH NIELSEN opinion@kansan.com much less likely to go on. According to a National Education Longitudinal Study (NELS) which tracked eighth graders from 1988 until 2000 while three quarters of black high school graduates entered college only 1 in 6 graduated. Similarly, seventy percent of Hispanics attended college, and only 15 percent finished. If minority students who scored poorly on the NAEP exams went on to do well in college it would suggest that the test isn't accurate. But that's not what is happening. The hard part is not recruiting minorities to attend college but getting them to graduate. The good news is that according to that a recent NCES study finds no difference in graduation rates between black and white students with similar test scores. Thus academic skills, not race are the best indicator of who will succeed in college. The key to boosting graduation rates is to boost academic skills. This holds true whether you are black, white, purple, or paisley. To be sure, the graduation rates and academic performance of non-minority students is nothing to write home about. Because white students far outnumber any other racial group in terms of sheer numbers there are actually more low scoring white students than minority ones. Lack of school funding does not explain the poor performance of America's schools. According to the U.S. Department of Education, school funding has increased 50 percent in the last 30 years. But test scores have essentially remained stagnant. Nor are inner-city schools underfunded as is widely believed and reinforced by books like Jonathan Kozo'l Savage Inequalities. Comprehensive data compiled and analyzed by the National Center for Education Statistics at the U.S. Department of Education from the 1989-1990 school year (the same time period examined in Kozo'l book) reveal only a 5 percent spending differential between inner city and wealthy suburban schools. If universities wish to boost minority retention rates, a concerted effort must be made to close the racial gap in academic performance, starting at the elementary school level. By the time high school seniors are applying for college it is too late. Educators need to do a better job of educating, and parents need to do a better job of holding them accountable. Poor academic skills, not discrimination or lack of school funding, explain the low graduation rates of non-Asian minorities. This may be an unpopular view but that doesn't make it any less true. Because the truth remains regardless of whether it is politically correct or we choose to acknowledge it. Nielsen is an Andover senior in anthropology and history. We've heard the bromides before about successful sports programs bringing in untold millions in funding for their host institution. But now it appears the ' golden goose' has its own appetite and it is insatiable. Could it be any clearer where central administration's priorities lie? While it is soliciting many millions in support for its sports entertainment business, it is depending on the students to pay for necessities historically funded by endowments and the State. Administration's priorities do not have students in mind Connect the dots: 1) millions donated to a $30+ million football facility, 2) an extra $30/credit hour in tuition for academic buildings and 3) staff to vote on leaving the State civil service system in order to gain (much needed) raises via tuition increases. Strong Hall has failed to get the state to fund the University at a reasonable level. No problem, just have the students pay for a rapidly increasing percentage of the necessities (salaries, equipment, buildings, etc.), freeing administration to go after the big donors to fund entertainment. So, while inequities and shortages threaten to cause unease, the leadership offers public spectacle as diversion. It seems our leadership has learned from history. It worked for Roman emperors. Steve Padget LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Steve Pauger associate professor of architecture College-specific tuition not fair to liberal arts students As a transfer student from the University of Missouri, I must say that I strongly oppose this college-specific tuition. One of the factors that attracted me to KU after a semester of the University of Missouri was its price. MU is receiving very little funding from the state, and tuition, even in state tuition, was very costly. Also, I wonder why the liberal arts and sciences is being singled out for this tuition. Other schools use Malott, Wescoe, and Budig, yet CLAS students get to pay for everyone else as well as themselves. Just because CLAS is the biggest school on campus doesn't justify an increased cost for these particular students. After viewing the Powerpoint presentation on the Web site, I feel that many of the renovation plans are for aesthetics. It is unnecessary to primp the outside of Wescoe with tuition money. I do, however, support handicap accessibility from Wescoe to Malotti. Those endless stairs would be impossible with a disability. Again, though, I must ask myself, "Why only CLAS students? Will CLAS students be the only people able to use the new facilities?" I know the answer to that question is no, so I do not see a problem in raising tuition for everyone if these renovations are absolutely necessary (which not all of them are). The chart on the Powerpoint presentation is also incredibly misleading. Of course an MBA is going to be much more expensive per credit hour than a bachelors in arts or science. Of course law school is more expensive. Clearly, the chart was designed to minimize the tuition hike. To me, $450 per semester is significant. I don't have that kind of money in a mayonnaise jar in my backyard, to be sure.

WASHINGTON — The number of people sentenced to death reached a 30-year low in 2003, when the death row population fell for the third year in a row, the government reported yesterday. ore Death penalty opponents say the report shows how wary the public is of executions, heightened by concerns about whether the punishment is administered fairly and publicity about those wrongly convicted. Illinois emptied its death row in 2003 after several inmates were found to be innocent. "What we're seeing is hesitation on the death penalty, skepticism, reluctance," said Richard Dieter, executive director of the Death Penalty Information Center. "I do think there is some concern about the death penalty and it's reflected in death sentences from juries." Opponents also point to other possible reasons, including continuing fallout from Supreme Court decisions requiring that juries be told that life in prison without parole is an alternative to death. Dieter said 47 states now offer a life-without-parole sentence as Supporters doubt the decline signifies a major shift in public opinion about the death penalty, which is in effect in 38 states and the federal justice system. an option for at least some convictions, compared with 30 in 1993. "I don't think the numbers mean a lot quite frankly," said Dianne Clements, president of the victims advocacy group Justice For All. "I don't think it means a change in death penalty attitudes. I think it means the numbers change." At the end of last year, 3,374 prisoners awaited execution, 188 fewer than in 2002, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Illinois accounted for 91 percent of the decline, the result of then-Gov. George Ryan's decision to commute the death sentences of 167 inmates to life in prison and to pardon four others. Nationally, 267 people were removed from death row last year. That was the largest drop since 1976, when the Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty, according to the report by the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Last year, 65 people, all men, were executed. Texas again was the leader, with 24, followed by Oklahoma with 14 and North Carolina with 7. No other state had more than three. All but one of those men were killed by lethal injection. The other was electrocuted. Since 1977, 885 inmates were executed through 2003 by 32 states and the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Two-thirds of them were in five states: Texas, Virginia, Oklahoma, Missouri and Florida. The report also found: Of death row inmates, 56 percent were white, while 42 percent were black. Hispanics, who can be of any race, accounted for 12 percent of inmates whose ethnicity was known. States with the largest number of death row inmates were California with 629, Texas with 453 and Florida with 364. Ten people died while awaiting execution in 2003—six from natural causes and four from suicide. H.O.P.E.: Psychology professor a student favorite CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A "He has a passion for what he teaches and, through his passion, he brings students into the actual world of abnormal psychology," said Chris Heath, Salinas, Calif., senior. Heath said Ilardi could make you see depression and alcohol dependency through the eyes of people who suffer from those problems. "He's one of the most effective teachers I've ever had," said Lvda Irfan, Wichita junior. She said he makes his class interesting with his humor, storytelling and an ability to relate the material to everyday life. Unlike many professors who teach large, 300-student classes, Ilardi does not use PowerPoint. Instead, he brings an outline of topics he plans to discuss and treats his classes as seminars, interacting with his students. Ilardi's care for his students is what sets him apart from other teachers, said Rick Snyder, Wright distinguished professor of clinical psychology and winner of last year's H.O.P.E. Award. "He's the only professor of a large class that I know learns every student's name," Snyder said. Snyder has been Ilardi's mentor in the department of psychology. Early in his career at the University, Ilardi was willing to take risks using an interactive teaching style in large classes. Snyder said. Now, he relishes the idea of trying something new. "He's a model for the rest of us." Snuder said. Ilardi didn't begin his journey in psychology until he was 25 years old. While working in computers and commercial real estate in Georgia, Ilardi began volunteering in a state mental hospital. Touched by the reality that the residents were real people just like him, Ilardi said he became passionate about understanding what went wrong in their lives and what could be done to help them. After taking a few night classes at Georgia State University, Iardi applied to several graduate schools. At age 27, he was accepted into Duke University's graduate school with only three psychology classes to his credit. Ilardi earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics and economics from Emory University in 1985. After earning a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Duke University in 1995, he taught at the University of Colorado for two years. He has been at the University of Kansas since 1997. Some of his undergraduate classes includes Abnormal Psychology, Understanding Depression and Introduction to Personality. He also teaches graduate classes, including Adult Psychopathology, Topics in Depression and History and Systems of Psychology. One of the main joys Ilardi said he took in teaching was seeing students discover things RECENT H.O.P.E.

Erin Bodzin, the other cochair for the event, said this is the third year Hillel has put on this event, with the last years' being Shabbat 150 and Shabbat 200. She said it was nice for so many people to gather and remember Shabbat, which for her meant a day of resting and an opportunity to reflect on the past week. Bodzin was also excited because there were many non-Jewish people at the event as well. A service held in Alderson Auditorium featured three cantors and two guitarists as the assembled group sang songs of worship in Hebrew and stood and prayed. During the dinner, the group listened to a performance by Sherim Nitzim, or Singing Hawks — an a cappella group comprised of KU Hillel members. Ben Baellow, Overland Park sophomore, usually attends Hillel events, but was particularly excited about this one. "Growing up around here in Kansas, I haven't had a chance to be a big part of the Jewish community and culture," he said. "This helps me to be a part of the culture. We're like a big family here on campus." Edited by Ryan Greene ESTABLISHED IN CHARLESTON, IL IN 1983 TO ADD TO STUDENTS GPA AND GENERAL DATING ABILITY.

The cartoon hit retained the top slot at the box office for a second weekend, taking in $51 million to fend off animated newcomer The Polar Express, a Christmas tale that debuted at No. 2 with $23.5 million. The heist flick After the Sunset, with Pierce Brosnan, Salma Hayek and Woody Harrelson, opened in third place with $11.5 million, studio estimates showed Sunday. The Polar Express, based on the children's book about a boy's train trip to the North Pole, has grossed $30.8 million since opening Wednesday. Directed by Robert Zemeckis, the movie features Tom Hanks in multiple roles, including Santa. With a reportedly $170 million budget, The Express needs strong holdover business through the holidays to avoid becoming a box-office train wreck. The movie received wildly mixed reviews: Some critics called it a potential Christmas classic and others said its hyperrealistic human figures resembled dead-eved zombies. "Momentum for us is on the Distributor Warner Bros. is con- climb, which is exactly what our strategy was, to get ourselves some money in the bank and have some great word of mouth before we really hit the holidays." Warner Bros. head of distribution fident The Polar Express will follow the usual pattern of Christmas family flicks, holding up well through Thanksgiving weekend and beyond, said Dan Fellman, the studio's head of distribution. "Momentum for us is on the climb, which is exactly what our strategy was, to get ourselves some money in the bank and have some great word of mouth before we really hit the holidays," Fellman said. 1.

Watkins Health Center, KU Dining Services and KU Memorial Unions helped pay the bill. Chapman said she would have done something about the labels, maybe removed them altogether until new ones arrived, if she had known that it was such a problem with students. But students weren't vocal about the problem of mislabeling, she said. Elyse Fleck, director of purchasing for Treat America, said she was unaware that machines were mislabeled. She said she would work to fix the problem as quickly as possible.

Edited by Ashley Bechard Wu-Tang Clan founder O.D.B. dies in studio Saturday THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — The rap artist O.D.B., whose wild lifestyle and incessant legal troubles made him one of the most vivid characters in hip-hop, collapsed and died inside a recording studio Saturday. He was 35. O. D.B. had complained of chest pains before collapsing at the Manhattan studio, and was dead by the time paramedics arrived, said Gabe Tesorio, a spokesman for O.D.B.'s record label, Roc-a-Fella. The cause of death was not immediately clear, but O.D.B. had recently finished a prison sentence for drug possession and escaping a rehab clinic. He would have turned 36 on Monday. O. D.B. – also known as Ol' Dirty Bastard, Dirt Mig, Big Gift O. D.B. stood out even in the nine-man Clan, which featured such future stars as Method Man, RZA and Ghostface Killah. Baby Jesus or his legal name of Russell Jones — was a founding member of the seminal rap group the Wu-Tang Clan in the early 1990s. With his unorthodox delivery — alternately slurred, hyper and nonsensical He released hit singles such $ a^{n} $ Shimmy Shimmy Ya and Got Your Money, and appeared on remixes with artists such as Mariah Carey. But as his fame increased, so did his erratic behavior, and fans came to expect the unexpected from O.D.B. During the years, he was wounded in shootings and arrested on a list of charges, illegally possessing body armor, driving with a suspended license, shoplifting and threatening a former girlfriend. He was sentenced in 2001 to two to four years in prison for drug possession, plus two concurrent years for escaping from the clinic. He was released in 2003 and immediately signed with Roc-a-Fella. Tesioro said O.D.B. had been working on his comeback album for more than a year and was almost finished. His mother, Cherry Jones, said she received the news of her son's death in a call, which she called "every mother's worst dream." "To the public he was known as Old Dirty Bastard, but to me he was known as Rusty. The kindest most generous soul on earth," her statement said. EXPRESS YOURSELF WITH ME FOR FREE!

Usher won for favorite male soul-R&B artist, best pop-rock artist, best pop-rock album and best soul-R&B album for Confessions, which sold more than 1 million copies in its debut week. "Thank you for this moment. Thank you for this year." Usher said as he picked up his last award of the night. "It's been amazing." OutKast, the Grammy winners whose album Speakerboxxx-The Love Below spawned the mega-hit Hey Yal took home awards for favorite pop-rock band, favorite rap-hiphop album and best rap-hip-hop group. In his acceptance remarks, OutKast's Big Boi paid tribute to founding Wu-Tang Clan member O.D.B., who collapsed and died inside a New York recording studio Saturday. The rapper's cause of death was not immediately clear. "Rest in peace Ol' Dirty Bastard," Big Boi said. "We love you." Soul diva Alicia Keys won favorite female artist in the soul-R&B category, edging out Janet Jackson and Beyoncé. Brooks & Dunn earned their fourth award for favorite country band. Toby Keith won awards for favorite country male artist and best country album. "A lot of work went into this project." Keith said of his album Shock'n YAll. "This is cool." Sheryl Crow beat out Avril Lavigne and Jessica Simpson for the favorite female pop-rock artist award and received the prize for favorite adult contemporary artist. Rockers Linkin Park scored the favorite alternative music artist for the second year in a row. Country singer Kenny Chesney said he was surprised to win a publicly voted award for favorite performer. "I really didn't think anybody was going to beat Usher tonight." Chesney said. Shortly before the start of the telecast, producer Dick Clark announced rapper Jay-Z won favorite male artist in the rap-hop category. Singer Marc Anthony won favorite Latin music artist, and the group MercyMe won best contemporary inspirational artist. The show was heavy on performances, some of them censored with words cut out, although a few presenters got away with racy material. Gwen Stefani, stepping out without No Doubt, opened the show wearing a short, ruffled dress and white stockings and flanked by dancers singing to What You Waiting For? Lenny Kravitz, clad in a black trenchcoat and tie, hair cropped short, followed performing Lady. Country singer Gretchen Wilson won the best new artist, beating out innovative rap newcomer Kanye West and the band Maroon 5. Wilson lost to Reba McEntire in the category for top female country artist. Backstage, West vented his disappointment over being shut out in all of his three nominations. "I feel I was definitely robbed ... I was the best new artist this year," West said. "I don't know if I'll be back at this award show next year." Nominees were chosen on the basis of record sales, with winners selected by a survey of about 20,000 listeners. Iran to suspend uranium enrichment THE ASSOCIATED PRESS VIENNA, Austria — Iran notified the U.N. nuclear watchdog in writing yesterday that it would suspend uranium enrichment and related activities to dispel suspicions that it was trying to build nuclear arms. With its move, Iran appeared to have dropped demands to modify a tentative deal worked out on Nov. 7 with European negotiators, agreeing instead to continue freezing enrichment — the process to make either nuclear fuel or the core for nuclear weapons — and also to suspend related activities, diploats told The Associated Press. "Basically it's a full suspension," said one of the diplomats, speaking on condition of anonymity. "It's what the Europeans were looking for." Shortly after diplomats revealed the Iranian move, Tehran's top nuclear negotiator, Hossein Mousavian, confirmed that his country was giving its "basic agreement" to a temporary suspension. "We accept suspension as a voluntary measure on the basis of agreement with the European Union," Mousavian said on Iranian state television, emphasizing that his country viewed the move as a concession for "confidence building" and not a "legal obligation." As part of the agreement, "Europe will support Iran's joining the international group of states possessing the ability to manufacture nuclear fuel" once the suspension ends, Mousavian said, signaling yet again that Iran viewed the freeze as temporary. State Department spokeswoman Darla Jordan said yesterday: "We are awaiting a briefing by the EU three on Monday. We continue to believe that Iran has to abide by the IAEA Board of Governors' resolution." treaty obligations and part of a nuclear arms program. The United States has called for the indefinite suspension if not an outright scrapping of Iran's domestic enrichment program. Iran says it wants to master the technology only to generate power. The diplomat said Iran had also fulfilled a key part of the deal by formally informing the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency — the International Atomic Energy Agency — of its decision. Washington has argued that Iran's enrichment activities are in violation of its international That cleared the way for inclusion of Iranian intentions in a report prepared by IAEA head MohamedElBaradei. Cheney feeling OK after hospital visit THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Vice President Dick Cheney, who has a history of heart trouble, went to a hospital Saturday after experiencing shortness of breath. Tests found no abnormalities, an aide said, and Cheney left after three hours. "I feel fine," the 63-year-old vice president said as he walked out with his wife, Lynne. Cheney smiled and waved people gathered outside the hospital entrance. A pacemaker implanted in Cheney's chest three years ago indicated no irregularities during the past 90 days, said Mary Matalin, a spokeswoman for the vice president. The device gives doctors a three-month readout. She said an electrocardiogram, which measures the heart's electrical activity, showed no change. His cardiologist, Dr. Jonathan Reiner, said he suspects the vice president has a respiratory infection. "The vice president, complaining of a productive cough and shortness of breath, was evaluated at George Washington Medical Center today," Reiner said in a statement issued by the White House. "Tests ruled out any cardiac cause of the vice president's symptoms. Tests also ruled out pneumonia and other pulmonary causes." The vice president, who joined President Bush on Friday for meetings with British Prime Minister Tony Blair, felt fine otherwise, but his cardiologist recommended that he go to the hospital for tests. Cheney, who has had four heart attacks, although none as vice president, returned Thursday night from a pheasant hunting trip in South Dakota with a cold that left him short of breath. Matalin said. "Everything looks great," Matalin said before Cheney was released. "He's walking around from room to room in his street clothes just waiting for the blood work." She said Cheney was driven in a motorcade from his residence a few miles from the hospital and walked in under his own power. The president was notified by his chief of staff, Andy Card, shortly after Bush returned from a bike ride Saturday at a Secret Service training facility outside Washington, White House spokesman Ken Lisaius said. Ahead of the fall presidential campaign, Cheney dismissed speculation that his health might keep him from running again with Bush. He said his health had been good and he could not think of any circumstances that would prompt him to decline the role. His first heart attack occurred in 1978, when he was 37. He had a second in 1984, and after suffering his third heart attack, in 1988, Cheney had quadruple bypass surgery to clear clogged arteries. On Nov. 22, 2000, Cheney suffered who doctors called a "very slight" heart attack and had an angioplasty to open a clogged artery. Cheney was back in the hospital on March 5,2001, after complaining of chest pains. Doctors performed another angioplasty to reopen the same artery. After his fourth heart attack, Cheney quit smoking, began regular daily exercises for 30 minutes on a treadmill and said he began watching his diet.

PAGE 4B SPORTS 19/23/04 04; 04; MONDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Soccer defeated in overtime 3/04 22/04; 24/04; 198/04; www.kansan.com Second-round loss ends season earlier than expected BY KELLI ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITHER Nebraska junior forward Nikki Baker fired a line drive shot from 30 yards out that snuck just underneath the crossbar, to defeat the Kansas soccer team 2-1 in overtime yesterday in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The mood in the post-game press conference was predictably depressing, but the team was upset both because its season was over, and the players knew they let this game get away. Just like that, the season was finished for the lahawks. "The kid hit a once-in-a-lifetime shot," said Kansas coach Mark Francis. "I'm disappointed for the team and the seniors, but they put two in, and we only got one. You've got to give them credit." Kansas dominated the match offensively, outshooting Nebraska 27-8 for the contest, including a second half that saw the Jayhawks shoot the ball 18 times, compared to the Cornhuskers' one. "We weren't supposed to win this game." said senior goalkeeper Meghan Miller. "If we were meant to win, a few of those shots would have found the back of the net. I've never seen so many near misses." Kansas had countless scoring chances throughout the game, and came close to nailing down several of them. But every time the Jayhawks had a chance to put the game away on a corner kick or crossing play, they failed to finish the job. "Katie did well today and so did the defenders," said Nebraska coach John Walker. "In a game like this you need great play from your keeper, and we got that today." Nebraska sophomore goalkeeper Katie Wright had a lot to do with those missed opportunities. She racked up nine saves for the game, and held Kansas to a single goal by playing aggressive defense inside and outside of the goal. the goal. She chose to run out of the box to contest several Kansas shots, and allowed very few second chances, seeming to catch everything that went her way. The loss was similar to the regular season game the two teams played on Sept. 24. In that contest Kansas also outshot the Cornhuskers, but Nebraska's Big 12 player of the year Brittany Timko's goal in the game's first minute was enough to give the Huskers a 1-0 victory. a 1954 victory. Tinko, a sophomore midfielder, did not play in this match, however, because she is playing in an international tournament for the Canadian National women's soccer team. National women "I told my players that there are less of us playing now so everyone has to do more for us to win," Walker said. The Nebraska players did just that, as the team substituted only three players for the game, and were noticeably tired heading into overtime. reading into overhear. "They were done," Francis said. "We had more depth than them, and we dominated the game. We just didn't score." The game's first goal came in the 27th minute when Nebraska senior midfielder Brooke Bredenberg scored on a free kick. She launched a shot from the top of the box toward the left side of the goal, and trying to catch the ball, Miller leapt but deflected it sideways into the left upright, where the ball bounced backwards into the goal.

Frustration erupts from Texas loss BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealing@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER After each Kansas loss, football coach Mark Mangino has credited his opponents' talent and play. Not after Saturday's 27-23 loss to Texas. After an unusually long time in the locker room, Mangino came into his postgame press conference with something on his mind: the one play that he thought had cost his team a victory. With only 2.54 on the clock, Kansas needed seven yard to convert a third down from its 26-yard line. On came sophomore corner/receiver Charles SENIOR DAY For more on Senior Day, see page 3B more conferre receivei Chances Gordon, who has been the go-to guy all season. Luke stepped back and fired to Gordon at the Kansas 42, completing the past with enough distance to earn a first down. Then came the flag, an offensive pass interference call on Gordon Mangino was hot. And time in the locker room did nothing to cool him off. "The whole nation watched that play. I don't need to get any feedback." Mangino said. "People sat and watched the game on Fox today in their living rooms, they'll be the judge of that play. It's called BCS, keep that in mind." "BCS. That's what made a difference today in the game. That's what made a difference in the call in front of their bench. Dollar signs." Texas is currently sixth in the Bowl Championship Series standings, just ahead of Utah. If Utah were to reach that No. 6 position, it would be guaranteed a spot in one of the three non-championship BCS bowls — the Fiesta, Sugar or Rose. So long as Texas is in sixth, a bowl bid and the money that would come with it could come to the Big 12 Conference. Mangino said the reason Gordon was called for holding was because he executed a swim move on Texas corner Tarell Brown. Mangino said the swim move is something that is taught "by every offensive coach in America."

BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Close contest goes to Kansas, 79-70 A raucous crowd and a competitive Washburn basketball team almost made for a regular season atmosphere in Allen Fieldhouse last night. "In the gym, it definitely felt like a real game," said Kansas junior forward Christian Moody. "I think our intensity made it seem like an exhibition game. We've got to pick it up." Despite its sluggishness, Kansas used free throws and strong interior play to pull out a 79-70 victory against Division II Washburn in its final exhibition game last night. "We didn't get into a real groove," said senior guard Aaron Miles. "But there's going to be times you have to scrap them out." Kansas did, especially with the help of a productive two-minute stretch from Moody and freshman guard Russell Robinson. The two helped give the TWO PLAYERS STEP UP See story on the players in last night's game on page BB. Jayhawks a comfortable lead in the second half after the Ichabods had kept it close throughout. With Kansas up 59-54 and nine minutes remaining, Robinson hit a three-point shot from the corner and followed the ensuing possession with a fast-break bounce pass to Moody for a basket and a foul. Kansas would score just three field goals in the final eight minutes but took advantage of its opportunities at the free-throw line. Moody repeated the act less than 30 seconds later, grabbing a rebound and laying it in with a foul, to give Kansas its largest lead at 64-54.

LOUIS — Mike Martz's week of anger was no empty display. He saw the season slipping away for the defending NFC West champions and thought taking potshots at his players might be his best shot at turning things around. The St. Louis Rams responded to the tongue-lashings and physical practices by slapping around the Seattle Seahawks. Seaahawks. Marc Bulger got off to a red-hot start and a beleaguered defense held Seattle to three field goals in five trips inside the 20 in a 23-12 victory to earn St. Louis a first-place tie with Seattle atop the NFC West yesterday. Martz held little back after consecutive losses to the New England Patriots and the then winless Miami Dolphins. Douplims. "You don't want the head man upset," Rams wide receiver Kevin Curtis said. "It can't help but fire you up a little bit to play even harder." such impressively. "It's easy to take things for granted — all of us, coaches too," Martz said. "If you don't coach attitude and bring out the passion that they have to play this game, then you start to slide, and I think that's where we were." Martz's tactics included a live scrimmage on Wednesday, a very unusual full-contact drill for the NFL but something that he'll continue after seeing such impressive results. The Rams led 17-0 early in the second quarter. A month ago in Seattle, they had to score 17 points in the final 5 1/2 minutes of regulation to force overtime. The Rams (5-4) responded to Mad Mike by sweeping the season series against their top competition in the West, this time benefiting from an early cushion rather than a fast finish. overtime. "They made key plays when they had to, and we didn't," Seahawks coach Mike Holngren said. "I think that was the story." Shaun Alexander had 176 yards on 22 carries for Seattle, putting him over 1,000 yards for the fourth straight season. chance to be the game. "I was just thinking 'make plays,' and I went out to make a play," Alexander said. "Their defense made a better one." But Alexander's fumble after a 35-yard gain to the St. Louis 9 early in the fourth quarter blew the Seahawks' chance to tie the game. Seattle's Matt Hasselbeck played with a charley horse after colliding with Alexander on the Seahawks' first play, and ended with one of his worst games of the season for the Seahawks (5-4), going 15-for-36 for 172 yards. The Seahawks were limited to four field goals by Josh Brown. "We've been giving up points and I'm quite sure teams are coming in and thinking 'Man, we should be able to get at least 30 points,' and rightfully so," Williams said. "When this defense can hold a good offense like that to 12 points it's going to build momentum." Bulger was 5-for-6 for 71 yards on the opening drive, capped by a 15-yard touchdown pass to Curtis, and was 12-for-15 in the first quarter for 158 yards. By early in the second quarter he had completed passes to nine receivers. He was ineffective much of the second half playing with the lead, finishing 23-for-54 for 262 yards. But Marshall Faulk helped compensate, shrugging off a lost fumble and finishing with a season-best 139 yards on 18 carries, and the Rams totaled a season-best 202 yards on the ground. ground. The Rams came out firing. Martz called 13 consecutive passes to open the game and 10 were completions, including the 15-yard TD to Curtis. He finally called for a handoff midway through the second quarter, resulting in a 14-yard gain by Steven Jackson. Jackson scored from the 4 on the next play for a 14-0 lead. play for a 14-6 lead. The Rams played much of the game minus two stars. Offensive tackle Orlando Pace was ejected in the third quarter for making contact with the side judge during a scrum following a lost fumble by Faulk. Torry Holt took a blow to the head in the first quarter and did not return.

"That play killed me," said Marso, who could only grab Klatt's right foot. "I wanted to die." At least the Wildcats can still avoid their worst finish since 1989, when they went 1-10 in Snyder's first season, by beating Iowa State. boating Iowa State. "This football team will be remembered, more than anything else, by how they respond to this loss a week from now." Snyder said. "We have a lot of seniors who are going to line up and play their last game. Our seniors have not brought the kind of leadership that we need, and it is time for them to step up for their last one and truly take command of the leadership of this team."

They wanted to leave their mark on their fans just like they left their mark on Kansas football. "They are a special group of kids," said coach Mark Mangino. "They bought into what we are doing here. We are going to miss the senior class because they have really and truly dedicated themselves to making KU football better." Saturday's game against Texas was Senior Day — the final home game for 19 Kansas seniors. Thirty minutes before the game, a video of the seniors was shown on the video board in Memorial Stadium. The seniors were all introduced before the game as their family and friend waited on the field to congratulate them. In part, Saturday's game was just how the college football world predicted it. Texas, the 20.5 point favorite, did defeat the Jayhawks. But the manner in which that result happened was quite different than people imagined, with the Longhorns having to battle back from a 10-point fourth quarter deficit just to pull off the victory. The feeling among the seniors was that the hard-nosed fight put up by the Jayhawks was indicative of the seniors' style. "Today is a good example." said senior kicker Johnny Beck. "Out of bowl contention and having a BCS team come in and play we fought our butts off, and I don't think a lot of people gave us a chance." Vaughn said despite the loss, the seniors felt like they went out the right way. "We feel like we left it all on the field," he said. "That is how you want to do it as a football player. When you leave it all on the field, you can't have any regrets." For Beck it was a day of redemption. Beck, who had struggled throughout the season — missing crucial field goals, losing his starting job to freshman Scott Webb and then getting it back — went 3-4 on Saturday, giving the Jayhawks the lead at halftime even though they had yet to score a touchdown. Beck said he wished he had played more games like Saturday's, but he hoped people remember him for his play on Senior Day. Senior day. "It's special." Beck said. "It's senior day. It is a day that I am going to remember. "People are going to remember the last game at Memorial Stadium. I hope people know that by now, that I am not going to give up." This group will not match last year's success of getting a bowl bid, but Mangino said it was important not to undermine the seniors' role in the future of Kansas football. "Although they are not going to get a chance for postseason play, they know that their role is part of the foundation for success in the future, and they have done that," Mangino said. "As players and coaches we see it getting better every day, and they see it as the future." Senior wide receiver Brandon Rideau said he took pride in helping the football program improve. "We have worked real hard since coach got here, and we were able to adjust," Rideau said. "This was an important season for the organization." 'Young' gun wreaks havoc on Kansas defensive attack - Edited by Ashley Bechard By Ryan Colaianni rcolaiani@kansan.com kansan SPORTSWITTER The game had come down to one play — fourth and 18 from near midfield. Kansas needed a stop to knock off No. 6 Texas, a team they had not beaten since 1938. Texas quarterback Vince Young had to deliver on the most important play of the game. The Jayhawks backed off the line to play the pass. Young didn't have anyone open and he took off on his feet. "People can't drop off of him because he makes touchdowns, first downs, he can just win the game with his feet as well as his arm," Texas coach Mack Brown said. Young advanced about ten yards past the line of scrimmage where he met Kansas linebacker Nick Reid. "I just used my God-given talent in my legs and try and make the first down on my feet," Young said. "In my head, I refuse to let that guy make that tackle, especially when it is one-on-one." In my head, I knew I was going to make that guy miss." Reid, who is second in the Big 12 Conference in tackles, needed that tackle to give the ball back to the Jayhawk offense. But Young made Reid miss to pick up the Texas first down. "He pump-passed the line of scrimage to make everybody set, and as soon as he started running I knew he was going to get it." Brown said. "He's just a tremendous player and he grows up as a quarterback everyday." Young later would cap the drive with a 21-yard touchdown pass to Tony Jeffery with 11 seconds to go to give the Longhorns a narrow 27-23 victory, keeping their Bowl Championship Series bowl bid alive. "That was just amazing, just a great play at the end of a great game," Texas running back Cedric Benson said. Young finished with 114 rushing yards, yet none were more important than the ones that he gained to pick up that first down. Young also had an 18-yard scamper just three minutes before his first down run that Young was also solid in the passing game as he threw for 289 yards. For the second consecutive game, he amounted over 400 yards of total offense. ended up in the end zone to put Texas down just three. "Vince is a freak, when I saw him run I said, 'Hey, there's a chance he could put this in the end zone,'" Benson said. "I knew there was a chance, 50-50, and when I saw Vince scrambling it increased to about 80. Vince can do anything out there, and he made a great play." It was also the second straight game where the Longhorns recovered from deficits to get the victory. "Conch is walking up and down the sideline," Jeffery said, "saying, 'Believe, believe.'" 10 The victory gave Young his 15th victory as a Longhorn, bringing his record to 15-2 in just his sophomore year. Edited by Steve Schmidt Texas trailed Oklahoma State 35-7 last week before rattling off 49 unanswered points to win, 56-35. Vince Young. Texas sophomore quarterback, looks to pitch the ball during the second half. Young found Texas wide receiver Tony Jeffery in the end zone for the winning touchdown with 11 seconds remaining. Young's only touchdown pass rallied the Longhorns to a 27-23 victory.

The Huskers swept the Jayhawks Friday in Lincoln, Neb. 30-27, 30-24 and 30-26. the Huskers had 23 blocks during the match, holding the Jayhawks to a 056 hitting percentage, indicating that they scarcely had more kills than attack errors. K an s a s coach Ray Bechard said he was excited about his team's defense, but its attacking was not as good as it needed to be. 1 "We could've had smarter DORSEY shots," he said. "They got in front of us at the net quite a bit." Offense was not a problem early in game one, as the Jayhawks jumped out to a 10-6 lead. After a timeout, Nebraska slowly fought back and went ahead, 21-20. With a 28-27 lead, two Cornhuskers landed kills to end the game. In the second game, Kansas rallied from a five-point deficit to tie the set, 10-10. In the middle of the set, senior libero Jill Dorsey exited the court after colliding with a teammate. She did not return, and sophomore defensive specialist Dani Wittman took over Dorsey's libero duties. Kansas again kept it close in the third game, trailing just 26-25 late in the set, but Nebraska middle blocker Traci Stalls ended the match with a block assist and a kill. Kansas junior middle blocker Josi Lima had a match-high 11 kills, while three Cornhuskers led their team with nine apiece. The Jayhawks had a season high nine service aces, including five by junior setter Andi Rozum. "We served very well and got them out of their system," Bechard said. Bechard said the Jayhawks could be successful if they continue to defend well. The Cornhuskers hit just .184 Friday night. "I told the team we can't let this affect our next match," Bechard said. "We just have to keep on playing hard." The jayhawks now will face more stiff competition, taking on the No. 9 Texas Longhorns at 7 p.m. Wednesday in Austin. Earlier this season, Texas dominated Kansas in a sweep that started the Jayhawks' potentially fatal five-game losing streak. Mostly because of that streak, the Jayhawks find themselves struggling to make the NCAA tournament. Ranked sixth in the Big 12 with four matches remaining, Kansas may have to pull an upset against Texas or No. 13 Texas A&M to catch the eye of the tournament selection committee. FRUSTRATION: Another victory slips away from Kansas — Edited by Ryan Greene CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Gordon said that Brown got his hands on him, and he simply tried to move them off. "I just ran the route, and I felt like I swam him," Gordon said. "I guess the refs thought I did something wrong." While Gordon was hesitant to say whether his play merited a penalty, Mangino implied that something was amiss. Even at the risk of receiving a fine — likely $10,000 — Mangino went out of his way to defend Gordon's play and to offer up his version of the events which caused the penalty. "Ten-thousand bucks, tenthousand bucks," Mangino said. "I've got a team to fight for, I've got a football team to fight for and I'm not going to be pushed around or this University pushed around because we're not the big spenders, because we're not the big BCS team in the league." Mangino said that the official who flagged Gordon, Dallas native Freeman Johns, was the same official who issued Kansas an unsponsmanlike conduct penalty at Oklahoma. Mangino said that penalty came because his body was "gyrating." "I had to give up talking to those guys because the game was on national TV, and I didn't want to make it seem like I'm more worried about the officials then coaching the game," Mangino said. Late Saturday night, however, Mangino issued a statement backing away from some of his comments. "After an emotional loss, in our seniors' last home game, I made remarks that I regret," Mangino said in a statement. "Any implications that BCS standings played a role in Saturday afternoons game was inappropriate. I have always supported the BCS system and will continue to do so." Kansas athletics director Lew Perkins lent Mangino his support, while also emphasizing his respect for the BCS in comments in the same statement. When Texas coach Mack Brown was told of Mangino's comments, he refused to directly comment on Mangino's argument. "I won't make any comments on the other coach's comments, because his team did play really well, and I know he's really proud of them, and I also know he's very frustrated in his third year as head coach." Brown said. "The other thing I would say is I think we had 100 yards of more penalties than he did." The pass interference call and Mangino's implications of impropriety overshadowed an impressive game from both Kansas' offense and defense. Kansas held leads of 3-0, 9-7, 16-13 and 23-13 before allowing Texas to score two straight touchdowns. On the day, Kansas had three penalties for 23 yards, while Texas had 10 for 103 yards. week. Kansas had to go to a backup quarterback midway through the game. Kansas was led on the field by both senior quarterback John Nielsen and junior Brian Luke. Nielsen was the starter, but left with 8:06 in the second quarter with an apparent leg injury. For the third straight Mangino said that had Luke been injured, Nielsen could have gone back in to hand the ball off, and maybe to throw from a three-step drop, but he had no mobility. Luke had a rough outing against Iowa State on Oct. 30, causing a fumble and being pulled in favor of junior Jason Swanson for the second half. Mangino said that Luke had been looking forward to possibly playing this week. "He did an excellent job." Mangino said. "The guy barely got any practice time because all the snaps went to John Nielsen. He wanted redemption, and he got it." Mangino said that Luke took only about 12 snaps a day in practices this week, the norm for a backun. Overall, Nielsen and Luke were a combined 23-40, throwing for a 308 yards and a touchdown. Neither threw an interception. Gordon did throw one pick, however, on a side-line bomb intended for KU wide receiver Brandon Rideau that was snagged by Texas' Michael Huff. Junior Mark Simmons led Kansas in receptions, with eight catches for 135 yards, including a long reception of 73 yards. On that play, Simmons was able to "stick his defender" (in his words) and break open. After escaping a tackle, he was headed for the end zone. He came up just short. Ryan Howe/KANSAN "I got tired and he got me Marcus Henry, Kansas freshman wide receiver, fights off Texas senior safety Phillip Geiggar. Henry caught one pass for 21 yards. from behind." Simmons said. "I saw they were in man coverage, and I told Luke to check me, because we had a better angle on the corner." With the ball on the one-yard line, Kansas went to senior tight end Lyonel Anderson, who made a one-yard reception. That play put Kansas ahead 23-13. It appeared to many that the game was over. TEXAS 2 36 Texas went on a 14-0 run, however, and was able to leave Memorial Stadium with a victory. On Texas' last drive, it seemed to be in bad situations continually, but it did get good field position. A high, short punt by KU freshman punter Kyle Tucker gave Texas the ball at the KU 47. On the very first play of the drive, Texas' quarterback Vince Young was sacked for a loss of eight yards by KU junior defensive ends Charlton Keith and Iermial Ashley. Two incomplete passes followed the sack, putting Texas in the unenviable position of needing 18 yards for a first down and another chance at a touchdown with less than a minute to go. Kansas picked up the kickoff at the 30, giving Luke two chances at a game-winning touchdown. His first pass came Young then scrambled 22 yards to get the first down and push deep into KU territory. Four plays later, Young hooked up with wider receiver Tony Jeffery in the end-zone for a touchdown, giving Texas a 27-23 lead, after the PAT, with just 11 seconds on the clock. up short to Mark Simmons, leaving Kansas 53 yards short of the end-zone with a second to play. this next pass came up short of the end zone and was deflected away by a pack of Texas receivers. Football notes The official announced attendance was 38,714. Senior kicker Johnny Beck went 3-for-4 in field goals. His longest was from 39 yards out in the first quarter. Kansas has outscored its opponents 66-16 in the first quarter of games. Its defense has not allowed a single touchdown in that time with the only TD resulting from a Colorado fumble-return on Nov.6. Kansas last beat Texas in 1938 when as a member of the Big Six Conference, Kansas snuck away with a 19-18 victory over the Longhorns, then members of the Southwest Conference. Rideau had 58 yards inceptions today, enough to propel him to second place on the KU all-time yardage list with 1536 for his career.

Robinson played 22 minutes and led the team in steals with three. On a night when Kansas preseason All-American forward Wayne Simien went 3-10 from the field, two less renowned players stepped up for the Jayhawks. Freshman guard Russell Robinson and junior forward Christian Moody provided the Jayhawks with the second half energy they needed to shake off a Washburn Ichabod team that seemed to have an answer for everything Kansas did. Robinson, who finished with seven points all in the second half, played tenacious defense for 22 minutes and forced the Washburn guards into several turnovers. Coach Bill Self inserted Robinson with about 13 minutes left in the first half, and Robinson immediately forced Washburn freshman guard Andrew Meile to turn the ball over. "He is deceptive, and he is sneaky," said senior guard Aaron Miles. "He waited and waited for the right time to steal the ball." Moody started the game, but went out early with two fouls. He played only five minutes in the first half, but finished the game with 10 points in 16 minutes. For a pair who combined for just 12 minutes and four points in the first half, Robinson's and Moody's performance in the second half earned them praise from their coach. "Do we win the game without Christian and Russell playing that well in the second half?" Self asked rhetorically after the game. "We may have, but certainly those were the best two performers the second half." Robinson combined his defensive tenacity with some offense early in the second half. Five minutes into the half he stole the bail from Washburn junior guard Kris Milburn, drove the length of the court for the lay-up and drew the foul. That wasn't the last of Robinson's offensive contributions. He showed he could drive the baseline, hit from behind the arc and dish the ball. At a crucial point in the second half, he was the offensive spark in three straight Kansas possessions. Robinson said he used his defensive quickness to ignite his offensive game. With less than 10 minutes remaining in the game, Robinson showed a quick first step, blowing by a defender on the baseline and laying the ball up, widening the Jayhawk lead to 58-51. On the following Kansas possession, he showed his range, hitting on a three. On the next offensive play, he dished to Moody, who hit the shot and drew the foul. "When you play with Keith, Wayne, and J.R., on the same team, I know that I am going to be the fifth option," Robinson said. "I try to use my defense to get my offense going. I just try to pressure the opponent a little bit, and give them something new to look at." Moody said it was a mistake that he made in the first half that turned his play around for him in the second half. Following a Washburn free throw, Moody missed a box out and the Ichabods got the rebound. Self took him out of the game immediately. "I made a mistake, and I came out quick," Moody said. "I was just happy that Coach gave me another opportunity to play." Self said Moody's play was elevated after the initial mistake. "I thought after that he went and got everything that was rim high." Self said. Both players are in tough competition for minutes leading up not only to Friday's season opener against Vermont, but also to the season in general. Moody is looking to earn that final starting spot to play next to Simien in the post. Last night's performance certainly couldn't have hurt his chances, but he said nothing has been decided yet. "It is up to coach, but if I do get it I will be really excited and pump up." Moody said. Robinson, though, is looking the earn minutes in what Self said would be a five-guard rotation. "We are going to play five perimeter players, and he is definitely one of our five," Self said. "There is not that much different in guys. Whoever guards the best and the team is better with you in the game and gives us energy will be the guys who play the majority of the minutes." Edited by Rupal Gor WARR 52 KANSAS 23 Cindy Yeo/KANSAN Senior forward Wayne Simien goes up for a rebound against Washburn sophomore forward Kyle Snyder in the opening minutes of last night's game. Simien finished with 15 rebounds. 5 CONTEST: Washburn led Kansas by as many as nine points early on Courtney Kuhlen/KANSAN Brady Sisk, Washburn freshman forward, swats the rebound away from Darnell Jackson, Kansas freshman forward. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Ichabods' 14 makes in 22 attempts. Washburn controlled the pace early, jumping out to a lead with the help of hot shooting. Freshman forward Brady Sisk hit consecutive shots early in the game, and senior guard Carl Jenkins followed with a guarded 22-foot shot for an 8-0 run and a 19-10 Washburn lead at the 13:13 mark. "All of a sudden they think they can play with us and win the game," said Kansas coach Bill Self. "Certainly that was the case." Kansas responded with a 7-0 run of its own. Senior guard Mike Lee finished the outburst with a leaning lay-in and The jayhawks turned defense to offense to gain a halftime advantage, forcing three turnovers on three consecutive possessions. The steals resulted in seven fast-break points, giving Kansas a 39-50 lead that turned into a 42-37 advantage at the break. foul with 12:22 to go, pumping his fist and pounding the floor in satisfaction Kansas senior forward Wayne Simien had a strong presence in the post. The senior dominated the boards, grabbing 15 rebounds to go with his 13 points. Moody added 10 points and five rebounds, providing a second inside force for the Jayhawks. Senior guard Keith Langford finished with 11 points, and sophomore Kansas showed regular-season intensity at the 8:39 mark of the first half. A tipped pass by Miles created a scramble for the ball, with freshman forward C.J. Giles, Giddens and Miles all diving onto the floor to gain possession before a foul was called on Washburn. "We definitely needed that," Moody said. "It would have been ugly if this wasn't an exhibition game." Moody said the game would help focus the Jayhawks for the season opener Friday against Vermont. — Edited by Anna Clovis guard J.R. Giddens and Miles pout added 10.

And they have seldom come back. Yesterday, the Saints recovered from an early 10-point deficit and then scored a late touchdown to win. Aaron Brooks threw a 42-yard touchdown pass to Joe Horn midway through the fourth quarter and New Orleans defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 27-20. "I've just got one thing to say," Horn said. "Everybody that said goodbye to us, we ain't gone yet." New Orleans (4-5), which has been outscored 54-0 in the first quarter in the last seven games, trained 10-0 after one quarter against the Chiefs. But for a change the Saints were able to rally — and then hold on to win. With the score tied at 20, the Saints drove 72 yards to take the lead with 5:35 remaining. The Chiefs (3-6) responded by driving to the Saints 17, but running back Derrick Blaylock could not handle a pass from Trent Green and linebacker Orlando Ruff grabbed it to preserve the victory. "We got a heck of a rush and closed the pocket on him." Ruff said. "As he was getting ready to throw, they got an arm on him, which caused the ball to hang up on him. The whole time I was thinking, I can't mess this one up." the Chiefs gained 497 yards, and Green threw for 311 yards. But Green, who had six touchdown passes in his last two games, was held to one scoring pass against New Orleans. He completed 22 of 33 passes, and was intercepted twice. "The first three possessions we got 10 points out of it," Green said. "And then you can just go from there. It was frustrating for us the rest of the game. Anytime you have the number of penalties that we had, both offensively and defensively, and the turnovers that we had, it's hard to win a game when you do that." Blaylock, playing for the injured Priest Holmes, had 33 carries for 186 yards and a touchdown. NATIONALS: Teams fall short of top two spots CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B race before Benson fell back. Mathew finished second. Benson defeated his brother when he won the Big 12 Championships two weeks ago. "I started struggling with my hamstring, so I kind of slowed down a little bit." Chesang said. Chesang covered the 10-kilometer course in 30 minutes, 30.74 seconds, finishing 42 seconds behind Carlson, who posted a time of 29:48.44. Chris Jones, the only senior who competed for the men's squad, was disappointed with the team's second consecutive fourth-place regional finish, once again falling two places short of qualifying. "The reason I came here was to go to nationals," he said. "Now it's been four years and I don't get to go. It's a bad feeling, but what can you do? At least we had Benson qualify." Freshman Colby Wissel was the next Jayhawk to cross the time, finishing in 17th in 31:03.92. He was followed by junior Matt French, who came in 26th in 31:22.06. Freshman Paul Hefferon came in next in 34th in 31:29.33, with Jones right behind in 36th in 31:31.69. The women's team finished 16th out of 26 teams. Senior Megan Manthe led the way for the 'Hawks, placing 61st out of 185 runners with a 6-kilometer time of 22:14.75 seconds. Missouri won the race. Illinois placed second and was led by winner Cassie Hunt with a time of 20:21.29. Manthe, the lone senior competing for the Kansas women's squad, raced despite a stress fracture in her left foot that had kept her from running in practice for six weeks. Freshman Lisa Morrisey, who hadn't finished in the top five on the team all season, crossed the line next for the Jayhawks in 72nd, clocking a season-best time of 22:25.94. Junior Angela Pichardo followed in 90th place in 22:44.052. Freshman Connie Abbott was right behind in 91st at 22:45.62, followed by sophomore Dena Seibel in 109th at 23:03.14. Pichardo said the experience of running in the most important race of the season will benefit the young squad in the future. "It was good to see how everyone was able to use this as a meet to improve and gain experience," she said. "Even though we got 16th, we stayed together and helped each other during the race." Coach Stanley Redwine was also optimistic about the team's potential for next season, despite the fact that the team dropped from fifth place in last year's meet to 16th. "We graduated some people last year and we replaced them with young people," he said. "That's where we are right now. I think they did a good job." — Edited by Ashley Bechard KANSAS NEBRASKA 16 Sophomore midfielder Nicole Cauzillo connects on a header in front of Nebraska junior forward Nikki Baker in yesterday's NCAA tournament second round game. Rvlan Howa/KANSAN SOCCER: Defeat ends season CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B The Jayhawks attacked the Nebraska defense for virtually the rest of the game, but were unable to score until junior forward Jessica Smith found a hole in the defense in the 68th minute. get loud. She ended Kansas' scoreless drought by knocking a curving shot into the left edge of the goal. After the goal, she ran back to mid-field, waving her arms in the air telling the crowd to The fans obliged and seemed to help energize the Jayhawks for the rest of the second half. Kansas did everything right from that point on, but couldn't manage another score before the game went to overtime. The Jayhawks kept up their dominance early in overtime by attacking the Nebraska goal, but it all became moot when Baker slipped past the Kansas defense, took a pass from junior torward Kari Hogan and scored the game-winning goal. Each Kansas player dealt with the loss in different ways. Some fell to the ground in disbelief, while others tried to cheer up with hugs. Francis took the loss as hard as anyone and said he would never have a group of players like this again. "This is the best team we've ever had," he said.

This is the fourth year the Multicultural Resource Center and the Diversity Peer Education team has provided the Tunnel of Oppression to students, faculty and staff and members of the community as an opportunity to understand the kinds of oppression that continue today. The tunnel is an interactive experience that visitors will be led through. "Every student experiences oppression in some way," Rona Remmie, Monrovia, Liberia, sophomore, said. Remmie said that she experienced oppression almost every day. She said-sometimes she was labeled as uneducated because she was not from the United States. "It is the labels that are put on be by society that I consider to be oppression," Remmie said.

She said that the first time walking through the tunnel was always the hardest because it was easy to be disgusted and shocked. She also said it continued to be a unique experience because people learned something new every time they walked through. The tunnel goes from 5:30 to 9:30 tonight and will also run tomorrow and Thursday night on the second floor in Hashinger Hall. The MRC still needs a venue for the program for next year because Hashinger is too small to host the event Aida Garcia, graduate assistant in the Office of Multicultural Affairs, said it was designed to create an awareness of different types of oppression and its effects within society and the campus community. Participants will be exposed to video images, recorded voices and role-playing scenarios that face issues in society where hate is involved. Counseling will be offered for participants at the end of the tunnel. Garcia said participants were made aware that this kind of oppression continued today.

Journalism dean takes post Interim dean Ann Brill made permanent By Ross Fitch rfitch@kansan.com kANSAN STAFF WRITER Ann Brill, interim dean of the William Allen White School of Journalism, was appointed the school's permanent dean yesterday by Provost David Shulenburger. Brill has been the interim dean since July 1. "The William Allen White School of Journalism has a strong national reputation and I expect Ann will lead the school to deepen the reputation and to make it a better resource nationally for the journalism community," Shulenburger said. Rather than drastically change anything, Brill said she planned to focus on keeping the school's tradition in tact. He initially asked Brill to take the position last Friday, but she asked to think about it over the weekend. At 7:10 a.m. yesterday, she finally accepted the offer, Shulenbur said. The school is continually in the top 10 for some of the most competitive journalism awards and is considered one of the top journalism schools in the nation. "We have an excellent reputation to maintain." she said. I am grateful for the opportunity to share my knowledge and experience with you. I hope that you will appreciate the quality of care provided by our staff. We are committed to providing a safe, warm, and supportive environment for every patient. Your trust is essential to our success. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at [phone] or [email]. Brill said she loved being a faculty member and the deanship was not something she had wanted right away. When serving as a dean's search committee member last year, though, Brill said she questioned how she could ask someone else to be dean if she was not willing to be dean herself. Because of her interim status, Brill said she had the advantage of experiencing what it was like being the dean before the permanent position was offered to her. "Not too many deans get to try it out first." she said. As interim dean, Brill received good reviews and instilled confidence of her abilities to lead the school, Shulenburger Kit Leffter/KANSAN said. Ann Brill, interim dean of the School of Journalism since July 1, was appointed the school's permanent dean yesterday. A former faculty member, she has been praised by her peers for a keen interest and knowledge in the journalism school. Her work as interim dean impressed the dean's search committee members. The committee gave her a unanimous recommendation, said Susanne Shaw, professor of journalism and Student upgraded to fair condition after fall SEE BRILL ON PAGE 5A Sara Driessel improved to fair condition late last week after being comatose for at least three weeks after off the roof of a house Oct.24.

Comments from the family were being relayed through their lawyer, Lee Harde of Hardee & Peterson, LLC in Overland Park, said Lori Burns said the family had not given any recent comments. Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said Driessel had been checked out of her room in Ellsworth Hall sometime in the DRIESSEL Burns, legal assistant.

Bell ringers not at Target BY STEPHANIE FARLEY sfarley@kansan.com KANSAN STAMP WRITEER Salvation Army bell ringers began ringing for donations last Friday, but they won't be ringing in front of Target.

Fallujah backlash organized THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BAGHDAD, Iraq — U.S. soldiers battled insurgents northeast of Baghdad yesterday in clashes that killed more than 50 people. Some guerrillas were said to be "fighting to the death" inside Fallujah, where American forces struggled to clear pockets of resistance. getted American troops elsewhere in volatile Sunni Muslim areas north and west of the capital, wounding at least nine Americans. At least five suicide car bombers tar Three of those bombings occurred nearly simultaneously in locations between Fulajah and the insurgent stronghold of Ramadi, the U.S. command said. The zone between Fallujah and Ramadi was one of at least three areas yesterday in which insurgents pulled off almost-simultaneous attacks against U.S. or Iraqi forces, suggesting a level of military sophistication and planning not seen in the early months of the insurgency last year. Pressing their own offensive in central and northern Iraq, insurgents attacked police stations, Iraqi security forces, U.S. military convoys and oil installations across a wide area of the Sunni heartland.

Dieters already have been turning away from Atkins-style plans as a long-term weight-control strategy, and the new study gives them more reason: Low-fat plans seem to work better at keeping weight off. "People who started eating more far ... regained the most weight over time," said Suzanne Phelan, a Brown Big losers not Atkins friendly, Winners leave the fat behind Medical School psychologist who presented results of the study yesterday at a meeting of the North American Association for the Study of Obesity. The study used the National Weight Control Registry, a decadeold effort to learn the secrets of success from people who had lost at least 30 pounds and kept them off for at least a year. The registry is run by doctors from the University of Colorado in Denver, the University of Pittsburgh and Brown University in Providence, R.I. They studied 2,700 people who entered the registry from 1995 through 2003. Their average age was 47, most were women, and they had lost an average of 72 pounds initially.

Architecture students receive major award CAMPUS Criteria for the award is overall design excellence, creativity, programmatic and site sensitivity, and formal expression, according to a press release from the Office of University Relations. The Modular1 house was prefabricated in Lawrence for more than two months and then was transported in pieces to Kansas City, Kan. Dan Rockhill, professor of architecture and urban design, said it took another month to put the house together once it was on site. The two-bedroom, one-bath house was completed in May. Rockhill said a buyer was lined up to purchase the house in March. Rockhill said the open spaces and lighting are the highlights of the house. He said the house was inspired by a sense of need to provide housing that was both affordable and modern. "The house is very unusual," he said. "You'd have to look at it to understand."

The white background and vertical picture were replaced with a blue background and rotating pictures across the upper portion of the screen. He also said the new homepage was an incremental step in an effort to completely redesign the Web site. A chancellor's page was also added in order to better educate students and Web site visitors of happenings through the Office of the Chancellor. "He's obviously the leader of the University." Cohen said The site allows people to do "one-stop shopping" to find information about the University and historical information about Chancellor Robert Hemenway and previous chancellors. The designers of the Web site are Lisa White, Web communications manager for the Office of University Relations, and Julie Loats, enterprise Web services director, Cohen said. He called White a "top-drawer" designer that has worked on major corporation Web sites such as IBM. White will also help design the 2012 Olympic Web site. A link for the survey is located under Featured Links under "About this Home Page" at www.ku.edu. Students and Web site visitors can complete a survey regarding the new look for the homepage. Cohen said the results would be taken into consideration in order to improve the Web site and make it easier to use. — Amanda O'Toole ♂ THIS WEEK ON CAMPUS NOVEMBER 16, 2004 PRESENTED BY STUDENT SENATE Intimacy for Committed Couples With Dr. Dennis Dailey KU Professor of Social Welfare Two-part Workshop Nov. 19, 6-9pm and Nov. 20, 9am-12pm At the ECM Center Cost per couple: $35 students $45 non-students Registration and more info available from the ECM office. at 843-4933.

In fact, there is not much resistance or opposition to the concept of killing imperfect babies or of stripping people with disabilities of their civil rights, including their right to life. NOT UNHEARD O including their right to advancements in biotechnology and genetic engineering and testing have opened the door for a new avenue for discrimination against people with disabilities. Medical professionals are using improved medical techniques, including amniocenteses, to test for certain genetic "flaws" and disabilities in embryos created in vitro before implantation and fetuses during the early months of pregnancy. NOT UNBEARD OF months of pregnancy. Often, when an embryo is found to have a disability or to carry an undesired gene, it is discarded. Women pregnant with "affected" babies are being offered, and even pressured to accept, abortions by medical professionals because these professionals assume that these women will not want to have disabled babies. This process fails to take in consideration that amniocenteses are not infallible. They can be inaccurate about whether the condition actually exists and about the severity of that condition This form of genetic cleansing is gaining momentum in the medical community worldwide. unity worldwide: "A baby should be killed whenever TARA SHUPNER opinion@kansan.com some physical or mental defect is discovered before or after birth," said M. Rietdijk, a doctor physician. Medical professionals and insurance providers are increasingly pressuring women to obtain testing for their fetuses and to terminate pregnancies if the test results are unattractive. These medical professionals who use abortion as a means of ensuring a perfect, healthy baby are guilty of violating their Hippocratic oath to "reject abortion that deliberately takes a unique human life." Furthermore, these medical professionals have an obligation to provide fair, non-discriminatory, educated counseling to women carrying potentially disabled babies. Unfortunately, these professionals fail to meet that obligation. There is no medical, financial or social support for women who face raising a child with disabilities. Because of myths, misconceptions, and stereotypes, these women become afraid and hence more predisposed to accepting the option of abortion. accepting the option of Genetic cleansing does not stop with embryos and fetuses. There is a real danger of genetic cleansing expanding to include infants, children and adults. In fact, it is already happening. A hospital in the Netherlands approved euthanasia for children under twelve who have incurable illnesses. This broad term can be construed to include disabilities. In 1997, 8 percent of all infants who died in the Netherlands were killed by doctors. Something is wrong with our society when people are seen as disposable merely because they are different from the socially accepted standard, and when doctors actively play God by practicing infanticide and euthanasia. We need to reject the entire concept and process of genetic cleansing. Our society as a whole needs to embrace diversity and reject genetic cleansing before it becomes worse. before it becomes worse "Everyone has a right to respect for their dignity... that dignity makes it imperative not to reduce individuals to their genetic characteristics and to respect their uniqueness and diversity," said the 1997 Universal Declaration on the Human Genome and Human Rights. the Human Genome and Aids Leave people with disabilities their dignity. Don't accept the notion that medical professionals have every right to arbitrarily give or take away the gift of life. Above all, don't help certain individuals proliferate in our society the view that people with disabilities are imperfect, undesirable, and unwanted mistakes.

Affirmative action not fair, it's racist Liberals were practically frothing at the mouth when I wrote a column arguing in favor of racial profiling in airports. This time, I'm arguing against racial profiling in college admissions, but I've got a hunch they'll still be mad. FRESH ARRAH "Today we proved that race does matter, that we still see color and people will judge us by our color of our skin," declared Robert Page, Director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs, at an affirmative action panel about a year ago. FRESH ARTICHT ARRAH NIELSEN opinion@kansan.com ago. What better way to not see or judge based on color than a colorblind admissions process? But affirmative action supporters object to a colorblind admissions process because they think — correctly — that were it not for racial preferences, fewer non-Asian minorities would be admitted to top schools. schools. I've been privy to numerous "so-and-so never would have been admitted to professional school if they weren't black" conversations. Maybe, maybe not. Here's what we do know. During a period of several years, the University of Michigan School of Law admitted black students with grades and LSAT scores dramatically lower than white and Asian students who were automatically rejected. According to a study by the Stanford Law Review, in 1999, a black applicant with a LSAT score of 154 and a GPA of 3.5 had about a 90 percent chance of admission. A white applicant with those same numbers had only a 2 percent chance of admission. That much was conceded by the University of Michigan, the Michigan state court and the United States Supreme Court. But wildly disparate standards for admission are not unique to Michigan or law schools. A recent Center for Equal Opportunity study found that the extent of race-based double standards is widespread. This month, the Stanford Law Review contains a study of the impact of affirmative action by UCLA law professor Dr. Richard Sander, a self-described Democrat and life-long affirmative action supporter. He reveals that while 80 percent of white law graduates pass the bar exam the first time around, only 45 percent of black law graduates do. At elite law schools, 52 percent of black students rank in the lowest 10 percent of their class while only 6 percent of white students do. Sanders argues that the poor performance of black students at elite law schools is not due to race but to a mismatch between their academic ability and the caliber of their institution. Admitting black students who were by no stretch up to snuff with their white peers academically set them up for failure. According to Sander's findings, "Eighty-six percent of all black students who attended accredited law schools would have been eligible for admission at one or more law schools in the total absence of racial preferences." The point isn't that black students can't or shouldn't be admitted to law school,but that they are being admitted to law schools that they are underqualified to attend. Once the most qualified applicants have been selected, the only way to diversify the pool of admittees to increase the representation of a particular group is to lower the criteria for admission. To do it any other way is a mathematical impossibility. Coach Bill Self could meet a quota requiring that fifteen percent of his players be Asian. But he could not do this without compromising the quality of his athletes. We can offer a variety of theories to explain the lack of world-class Asian basketball players. What we cannot do is pull world-class Asian basketball players out of thin air. Because even the best recruitment program cannot recruit individuals who are largely nonexistent. Faced with a dearth of academically qualified non-Asian minorities and pressure to achieve diversity, admissions officials have two options: Admit students strictly on a colorblind system of merit (in which case fewer minorities will be admitted), or lower admissions standards for minorities. It's clear from the evidence mentioned above that many admissions committees have been opting for the latter. Is it racist to insist that non-Asian minorities meet the same standards as everybody else? Or is it racist to insist that they can't? Cordozo Law School professor John McGinnis puts it bluntly: "We interview people who would not be given a second thought if they were white, for the applicant pool for minority scholars is far, far weaker."

I think your calendar might have a problem, because I know that as a university newspaper that claims to have the highest credentials and objectivity, you would not fail to cover any aspect of Veteran's Day knowingly. (hint, sarcasm) How could you fail to say one word about Veteran's Day in the UDK on Thursday? (But, I don't mean to overlook the remembrance ceremony announcement that you put in the Kansan a week too soon.) I am not a journalism major, but even I know that this would have been an excellent time to highlight the contributions that some of our current KU undergraduates have made to this country. There are students amongst us that have participated in operations in Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan and many other places. I have met them, and I did not have to look that hard to find them.

Good year to be a graduate THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Economy retirement causes for recent graduate-hiring increase BOSTON — The recovering economy and looming retirement of the baby boomers are making this a great year to be a college senior looking for a job after graduation. Recruiters, career counselors and students say the fall recruiting season has been the most active since the dot.com boom. Accountants are again finding increased demand for their services but theirs is just one of several hot fields. Technology companies, investment banks and consulting firms appear to be picking causes for recent gra up the pace, as do some defense contractors and even smaller businesses that haven't traditionally recruited on campus. "I haven't been to school in the last three weeks because of my interview schedule," said Eric Golden, a senior at Bentley College, a business-oriented school in the Boston suburb of Waltham. He feels lucky to be graduating this year. Friends with similar credentials who graduated earlier often ended up taking positions that weren't their top choices — "just to have a job," Golden said. He's been juggling about a dozen interviews with companies including money managers, investment banks and General Electric. College hiring is expected to increase 13 percent over last year, according to a new survey from National Association of Colleges and Employers. Seven out of 10 employers said they expected to increase salary offers to new college grads, according to the survey released late last week, with an average increase of 3.7 percent. Four in five employers called the job market for new grads good, very good or excellent; last year fewer than two in five did. TUNNEL; Difficult for guides CONTINUED FROM 1A "Racism is still out there," Garcia said. "Sexism is still out there." This is the third year that Vedrana Balta, Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, junior and student coordinator for DPET, volunteered for the tunnel. She was a tour guide and an actor last year and said that being a guide or acting in the scenarios both took strength. Acting was hard for her because she had to say things that she would never say. "We are all emotionally drained when the evening is over." Balta said. She said it was difficult to even be a guide. Jen Carmen, Paola senior, is coordinating the volunteers for the tunnel this year. Serving as a tour guide is the most challenging job to her. "I don't know what goes through their heads, but I know that some would come in smiling and then leave with a pondering look on their face," Balta said. She said hearing and seeing the images over and over again was overwhelming. She warned participants that there was no build-up to the images on oppression. "You are seeing the climax and it is intense and graphic," Carmen said. — Edited by Steve Vockrodt committee chairwoman. Before making its recommendation, the committee also took into account the opinions from faculty, professionals and students, Shaw said. BRILL: Goal is student-centered CONTINUED FROM 1A "I think she will move the school forward," Shaw said. "I think she's going to make an excellent dean," said Mark Zieman, vice president and editor of The Kansas City Star. Zieman was one of the professional representatives on the search committee. what impressed Zieman was that Brill saw a real need to get out and talk to various news outlets in the area, he said. It makes you feel better about the school when you know what's going on, and it makes you more willing to consider donating money, he said. Charles Marsh said he expected Brill to maintain the school's values and mission. "I would like to see her keep us a student-centered school," said Marsh, associate professor of journalism and search committee member. It makes it special that she is a teacher, Marsh said. It's also important that the faculty knows her, Marsh said. Emily Epstein, a journalism student, agreed that Brill's experience as a teacher and longevity in the school was important to being the dean. It's important to have someone who understands the needs of students and faculty and knows the school, Epstein said. "I think that's a great qualification she has," Epstein, Omaha, Neb., senior, said. While serving as interim dean, Brill rejuvenated Kansas Editor's Day, where the school reaches out to various Kansas press organizations. She also oversaw the dedication of the school's new Stan and Madeline Stauffer Multimedia Newsroom for journalism students and the opening of the Bremner Editing Center, located in StauFFER-Flint Hall. PRIZES: Awards for fine arts — Edited by Johanna M. Maska Reber, professor of piano. CONTINUED FROM 1A Student Michael Kirkendoll said the complexity of his program piece impressed the judges. He won the Young Artists Piano Competition and will compete again in Lawrence in January. He played "Variations" and "Fugue Op. 35" by Ludwig Van Beethoven, "Three Intermezzi," by Johannes Brahms, "From the Streets?" by Leos Janacek and "Suicide in an Airplane" by Leo Ornstein. He said "Suicide in an Airplane" showed technical and musical aspects few could perform. "It's only been recorded a couple times," Kirkendoll, Andover doctor student, said. He also performed a sonata by Leos Janacek and "Intermezzi" by Johannes Brahms. He attributed the University's victories to hours in the practice rooms and exceptional teachers. He said he started practicing for the competition in September but had played for 17 International students brought awards home in the piano competition. Kai I Tian, Taiwan graduate student and doctoral student of Reber, won the graduate level category in the state competition. She played "Rigoletto Paraphrase" by Franz Liszt and the first movement of Beethoven's "Sonata Opus 31 No. 3." Other winners include Eunmee Song in the freshman/sophomore category and Hae-ju Choi at the junior/senior level. Song, a student of Reber, played "Sonata, Op 2, No. 2" by Beethoven and the first movement of "Fantasy Op 17" by Robert Schumann. Choi is a student of Jack Winerock and played the first movement of "Sonata Op 53" by Beethoven and Etude Tableaux, "Op 39, No. 1" by Sergei Rachmaninoff. years total. Mary Fukishima, a doctoral student from Long Beach, Calif., studies flute at the University and won the same award in the woodwind division. Edited by Steve Vockrodt BELL RINGERS: Relationship not fractured by new policy CONTINUED FROM 1A But the policy isn't going to change the good relationship between the Salvation Army and Target, she said. target and the Salvation Army will continue to work together and the Salvation Army will apply for grants and scholarships through Target, Zahner said. There are no ill feelings towards the Target corporation, said Rich Forney, administrator for the Lawrence Salvation Army. It's just a case of having to adhere to each individual company's policy, he said. Last year, the Lawrence Salvation Army collected about $25,000 in front of Target. That's a pretty good piece of income, Forney said. Lawrence's bell-ringing goal is $85,000. 3504 Clinton Parkway. In order to make up for that loss and make sure the organization meets its goal, bell ringers have been placed at both entry ways of the Hy-Vee stores, 4000 W. Sixth Street and If there aren't enough people who volunteer, then the Salvation Army has to pay people to be bell ringers, Forney said. Wal-Mart, 3300 Iowa St., is one location where bell ringers will be stationed. The store allows bell ringers because it's an opportunity to help the less fortunate, said Richard Chappelle, store manager for Wal-Mart. "It's just part of what happens during the holidays," Chappele said. In 2005, Wal-Mart gave more than $100,000 in donations to Lawrence and Douglas County. The Salvation Army needs people to volunteer to be bell ringers, Zahner said. Bell ringers stop ringing on Dec. 24. To volunteer as a bell ringer in Lawrence, call 843-4188. All ages are encouraged to participate and groups or clubs are welcome. Volunteers under 16 years old must be accompanied by an adult. Edited by Iohanna M.

Mangino was irate after his football team gave up a 10-point lead to the No. 6 Texas Longhorns on Saturday in the closing minutes of the game. When he came out to face the media, he wanted the whole world to know what he thought of the game's officiating and the sinister motives behind it. But after going home and talking to his family, he changed his mind. "No official, and no entity cares about the outcome of the game," Mangino said. "No one is trying to influence the outcome of the game." So instead of waiting until Sunday, or even then the press call yesterday morning, Mangino called Athletics Director Lew Perkins that night and told him he wanted to make amends. He and Perkins decided that he should issue a statement expressing his change of heart immediately. Mangino carefully emphasized that the apology was his idea, and he was not pressured in any way to do so. pressure Perkins stood behind Mangino after the outburst, calling him "our coach," and saying that Mangino knew what he was doing. He also reaffirmed that stance in Mangino's statement. "I support coach Mangino as our football coach, and I also support the integrity of all of the individuals associated with the Big 12 Conference." Perkins said. Big 12 Conference. In yesterday's press call, Mangino tried to explain the difference in his comments. While he did not discuss whether he had come to agree with the official's call, he did say that he did not in any way believe the officials purposely influenced the outcome of the game. He said that he now believed that the Big 12 and BCS system had no preference for one team or another to win the game. "When you make a mistake, you have to be man enough to correct it." Mangino said. No word has come from Big 12 officials, who Mangino called on Sunday and apologized to, on what, if any, disciplinary action Mangino will face for Saturday's comments. Finding funding Kansas Athletics has secured another donation for a footballonly facility to be built in the Memorial Stadium. The Anderson family made a large donation to the Anderson Family Strength Center and planned to donate an additional $10.5 million through the family's estate. Earlier this year however, Dana and Sue Anderson decided they would sell $3.5 million worth of securities for an immediate donation. Of the $3.5 million that has been pledged, 90 percent will go to the football facility, and 10 percent will go to the School of Business. The new football-only facility is tentatively slated to be built at the base of Campanile hill, directly south of Memorial Stadium. It should also include practice fields, built somewhere near the stadium. Another one down the game. Senior John Nielsen led the Kansas offense until midway through the second quarter, when he had to leave with an injury to his leg. He was replaced by junior Brian Luke. For the third straight week, one quarterback started the game for the Jayhawks, only to be replaced because of injury by a different one midway through the game. replaced by jayman Nielsen's status for this weekend's game with Missouri is unclear, unlike the status of the other injured quarterbacks, sophomore Adam Barmann and junior Jason Swanson, who are both expected to be unavailable. Luke is the only healthy quarterback on the Jayhawk depth chart. In the event that all three injured quarterbacks are unavailable, backup duties could fall to sophomore all-purpose player Charles Gordon, or perhaps even junior linebacker Nick Reid. Nick Reid. Reid rewild a pass on a fake punt on Saturday and drew a pass interference call, giving the team a much-needed first down. Edited by Steve Vockrodt LISTEN: Soccer's success deserves new facilit CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10A administration knows it's something that needs to be improved. I think where it probably hurts us most is in recruiting, because now that we've established ourselves as a top-10, top-15 program, we're competing for better players, and the people that we're competing with have top-notch facilities. — Kansas soccer coach Mark Francis Francis The most frustrating part of all this has to be that the soccer program is now the most successful fall sports program the University has. The Jayhawks have made three NCAA Tournament appearances in the last four years, and took home a share of the regular season Big 12 Conference crown this year. Of course, the football program has the top spot on the marquee in the fail, and raising $30 million for this new, state-of-the-art facility would help in recruiting, but come on. Is it really necessary at this point? A project like this should come after the team has seen a good four- or five-year stretch of consistently winning and getting bowl bids. It's not like a new soccer complex would break the bank. In comparison to costs for the football facility, it would barely be a blip on the radar screen. Here's what the soccer team should get: 1) New turf. Have you ever walked on the field there? There are dips and patches all over the place. Not acceptable. 2) More stands. All you have to do is extend the bleachers the entire length of the field and maybe add a few more rows. No major surgery. 3) A new locker room. I think Monica's quote said it all. Well, maybe not. The women's locker room is all the way in Allen Fieldhouse, and is used by visiting basketball teams. Let's get the soccer players their own room. 4) A new sound system. Not necessarily top-of-the-line, just improved. What would all of this cost? Two or three million, maybe? I know that if enough lobbying can be done to raise millions for a still-growing football program, there has to be a way it can be done for what is on the brink of being a dominant soccer program. 5) Lights. Night games could attract a larger fan-base. For us to continue to get better from where we are now, we've got to get more blue-chip recruits, and that's probably the area that makes it the toughest. We've done a pretty good job recruiting around it, but you know, if it's close between us and somebody else, then obviously that doesn't weigh in our favor. It's the cards that you're dealt, and right now, we're doing a pretty good job dealing with it. — Francis Greene is a Vernon Hills, Ill. senior in journalism. Why should they have to?

The next game gave the Jayhawks an opportunity to avenge their first-round loss. They again faced Oklahoma, this time for the regional championship title. For the second consecutive game, the Jayhawks were forced into sudden death overtime. The game came down to penalty kicks and the Jayhawks came out on top, 1-0. The Jayhawks' goalie, Mike Kutz, St. Louis junior, was named team MVP after stopping two goals. "Everyone was very focused and we played the best game of the tournament," Siebert said. "I think we played more like a team and everybody knew we were going to come through, we just didn't know how we were going to do it. It was this incredible, overwhelming joy when we won." But the Jayhawks' regional title and 17-7-5 record now mean nothing. But the 27-member Jayhawk squad has a national title to win.

The celebration didn't last that long because everybody was starting to look to the next game." The next game gave the Jayhawks an opportunity to avenge their first-round loss. They again faced Oklahoma, this time for the regional championship title. For the second consecutive game, the Jayhawks were forced into sudden death overtime. The game came down to penalty kicks and the Jayhawks came out on top, 1-0. The Jayhawks' goalie, Mike Kutz, St. Louis junior, was named team MVP after stopping two goals. ping two goals. "Everyone was very focused and we played the best game of the tournament," Siebert said. "I think we played more like a team and everybody knew we were going to come through, we just didn't know how we were going to do it. It was this incredible, overwhelming joy when we won." But the Jayhawks' regional title and 17-7-5 record now mean nothing. But the 27-member Jayhawk squad has a national title to win. The national tournament is scheduled to begin today and conclude next Monday.

J. R. Giddens and Russell Robinson try to hold onto the ball in a small scuffle with Washburn's Karlton Mims with eight minutes left in the first half of the game against Washburn Sunday night. "He says he doesn't care about the score too much," senior guard Aaron Miles said. "He just cares about how we play and how we perform." That wasn't enough to save Miles and the Jayhawks from criticism Sunday, after their 79-70 victory over Division II Washburn. "He was a little disappointed in some of our efforts," Miles said. After a 115-70 victory over Emporia State last week, Self said Sunday's competitive game with Washburn was just what the team needed before starting regular-season play this Friday against Vermont. "Things had come pretty easy for the most part," Self said. "It was good for our freshmen to play in a game where possessions are magnified, and certainly it was good for our five returning players to collectively not play as well and get their minds refocused." Self stressed many points of emphasis for practice this week. The coach said the team needed to work on game situations, such as the one it was placed in at the end of the Washburn contest. After Miles made jumpshot off the glass, Kansas held a comfort the 71-58 advantage with just more than five minutes to play. But instead of taking control, Kansas allowed Washburn to creep back to within seven just two minutes later. "I kept telling our guys to play to win the game, but I never felt like there was a sense of urgency to play to win the game," Selt said. "We were just playing. The last five minutes I think that was very evident." With the competitive game, Self was also able to see the way ns team adjusted its game to a close score down the stretch. "That was a great practice situation for us to be able to play a certain way in order to have long possessions," Self said. "I didn't feel like we did a good job with that." Self said he was also concerned with the team's rebounding, which he felt needed to improve before the beginning of the season. Focus also was a concern for the team, with Self saying the Ichabods had "out-scrapped" the Jayhawks and Simien saying Washburn had "outplayed" them. Kansas did out-rebound Washburn 45-41, but did so with a much taller team and with senior forward Wayne Simien pulling down 15 himself. "You could tell our intensity wasn't there like it was the first game," junior forward Christian Moody said. "We've got a lot of things to work on. They just came out really strong, and it just kind of hit us and hit us quick." In the end, Washburn's effort ended up not only keeping the game close, but also giving Kansas an opportunity to learn more about itself. "It's always good to play a team that competes, plays hard and scraps," Miles said, "because then you see how much scrap you have in yourself." Self said he was not concerned with the team's poor three-point shooting. Basketball notes The Jayhawks hit five of 16 attempts for 31 percent after hitting 14 of 28 in their first game against Emporia State. The three-point line was moved back nine inches for the Washburn game, reflecting experimental rules that might be used next season. "If we have to rely on making threes to win games, then we're not playing the way I'd like to play anyway." Self said. Both freshman forward Alex Galindo and junior guard Jeff Hawkins did not play in the Washburn game because the game was closer than expected. "We played to win the game." "Self said. "I would love to have played everybody, but that wasn't how the game played out." Galindo is returning from a nagging groin injury, but Self confirmed that was not a factor in his decision to not play the forward. Edited by Johanna M.

The more you study, the more you find you don't know, and that can get discouraging. That condition is temporary, however. You end up with much greater wisdom. Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 5. You'll have to juggle to take care of everyone who needs your attention. Luckily, you're good at this. Don't overlook family. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is an 8. today is an 8. New skills you've acquired will come in handy, but you may also discover some you don't have yet that would be useful. Take notes, and perhaps, take a class. Gemini (May 21-June 21) Invest in an item that will make your workday a little easier. The more quickly you can get all those chores done, the more time you'll have to play. Cancer (June 22-July 22) today is all Another challenges your conclusions. Don't react emotionally Be practical. Pointing out the money you've saved increases your credibility. HOROSCOPES Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 6. today is a 6. The only way to get past some obstacles is to slog right through them. Unfortunately, that may be the case now. You'll be so proud when it's all done. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Today is an 8. Make sure you acknowledge the people who are helping you achieve your goals. They don't do it for the paycheck, not entirely, anyway. There's never been enough money to make up for a lack of appreciation. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is a 6. A person with whom you have been putting up with is dangerously on your nerves. However, it would be quite foolish to complain. Continue to be gracious. It's driving her nuts. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Sometimes, before you can advance, it's a good idea to review what you've already done so far. Make lists of what worked and what didn't. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 6 today is a 6. Some of the things in your closets or attic are quite valuable. Don't pitch them out; recycle or sell them, and refill your empty pockets. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is an 8. Continue to give advice to a person who's decisionally challenged. You're becoming indispensable, and that's good job security. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.18) Today is a 5. You may be able to play a card that you've been keeping hidden. Call in a favor that somebody important owes you, for starters. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is an 8. There's a conflict brewing between your public and private lives. Caring for others is important, true, but first, take care of your own.

She can only hope tonight's game has the same solid second half. "It's a matter of finishing the game," the junior guard said. the junior guard sale. In the first exhibition game against Fort Hays State, an 88-49 victory, the Kansas players did exactly that. Following a disappointing first half of play, Kansas outscored the Tigers 51-25 in the last 20 minutes. Taking the improvement of the second-half of that game into tonight's home exhibition contest against the West Coast All-Stars will be integral in a Jayhawk victory. Coach Bonnie Henrickson said the team had been working on rebounding during the week of practice preparation. Fort Hays pulled down 22 offensive rebounds, which could have been crippling had the Tigers not shot a frigid 26.6 percent from the field. 100 BROWN Henrickson blamed the weak-side rebounding on too much penetration, something that might be more difficult to contain against the All-Star team — a team Henrickson characterizes as much more athletic than Fort Havs. Hays.

On the offensive end, the Jayhawks are looking for more powerful play from junior forward Crystal Kemp. who in last week's game tallied only 24 minutes because of early foul trouble. Kemp finished with 22 points and 13 rebounds, mostly in the second half. With the regular season opener against Texas-Arlington only five days away, the Jayhawks are focused on steady team development instead of just victories. "We're more concerned about us," Henrickson said. "We better be a whole lot better when we open against UT-Arlington. We're closer than we were last time we played, but every practice we need to get a little closer." practice we need to get the If the Jayhawks give a dominant performance tonight, team members could be more certain that Sunday's home-opener will be solid. "That's why they have these," Brown said of exhibition games. " Hopefully, after this next exhibition game, we'll be ready." Edited by Johanna M. Masba Jayhawks unsure which All-Stars team will show at tonight's hoops match BY BJ RAINS brains@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The team is the West Coast All-Stars. Its coach is Jerry Gatewood. Other than that, the Kansas women's basketball team doesn't know much about its opponent for tonight's exhibition game at Allen Fieldhouse. ton game Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson and her squad have a roster, stats, and even a game film for the All-Stars. One problem, though — it appears there is more than one All-Stars team. more than one All-Stars team. Henrickson said that a second West Coast All-Stars team, a team that lost to UCLA 93-45 on Saturday, could show up to play tonight, instead of the team that has played four games, including a 77-56 loss to Tennessee on Sunday. The Jayhawks only have a scouting report for the team that played Tennessee, so that's who they have been preparing for. Phone calls to coach Gatewood have not been returned. "Now is that the team that is going to show up on Tuesday? We don't know," Henrickson said. "There's some rumor that he has a different team coming. So with our luck, we'll prepare for them, and the other team will show up." show up. Regardless of who the Jayhawks play tonight, Henrickson is focused on her team, and what they need to accomplish.

Plus, there is still the speculation of a $20 million gift coming from Tennessee Titans owner and Kansas alum Bud Adams in the near future. These are exciting times for von There is no question that coach Mark Mangino has the football program headed in the right direction, and he showed some major gusto in his postgame defense of his team on Saturday. But how does the Athletics Department continue to ignore what's going on just behind the football team's practice field at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex by not rewarding the high-performing soccer team with a decent facility of its own? I headed over to the soccer complex on Friday to watch the Jayhawks take on the Creighton Bluejays in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. It was one of the best atmospheres I had ever seen at a Kansas soccer game, and the team was equally electric in its 3-1 victory. Despite Sunday's 2-1 overtime defeat against Nebraska, it's hard not to be impressed with those girls. impressed you were there, so I'm almost sure that you left with the same impressions. What was most impressive about the victory against Creighton was that after the Jayhawks gave up an early goal, they played the rest of the game with an air of confidence. They were physical and nasty. That's the confidence that comes when you have emerged as one of the top teams in the country. Yeah, I think it is a little frustrating. I think it will change eventually. I don't know how long it will be until a change will be made. The Brotherly love off the track But if the Jayhawks' new image alone is not enough to intimidate opponents that come to Lawrence, then their "facility" certainly does not help.

Jones is Lawrence's "Big Brother" through the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. They said they enjoy watching Chiefs games, playing basketball, and, of course, talking about girls. BY FRANK TANKARD ftankard@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Meet Lawrence Hubbard. He's a rap writer. A football and basketball player. A smooth dancer. A kid with a bright future and a laid back, Fonzie-meets-Jay Z attitude. He's 13 years old, a seventh grader at Southwest Junior High. "I'm bodacious," he said. "As soon as I step into a room, they drop jaws. I'm not joking." When Chris Jones, a senior and one of the top runners on the Kansas cross country and track teams, volunteered to spend time with Lawrence through the Big Brothers Big Sisters program a little more than a year ago, he had no idea what he was getting himself into. In some ways, they're from two different worlds. Jones grew up in Iowa City, Iowa, with both his parents. His dad is vice president of a bank and his mom works as a radiologist. mom works Lawrence lives with his stepdad and his mom, who runs a daycare from their home. His father is a rapper in Atlanta and has been away for most of Lawrence's life. Jones said he and Lawrence were a perfect match. When they get together once or twice a week at the house Jones shares with three other Kansas distance runners, Jones said they spend most of their time shooting hoops in his driveway, watching movies, playing video games and listening to music. Regular friend stuff. regular friend staff We're both really into athletics and sports," Jones said. "Also a big thing for him is rap music, and I've always listened to that. It's been easy to connect." nect. Jones assumes the "big brother" role too. He said one of the lessons he's been trying to teach Lawrence is avoiding confrontations at school. Lawrence has had his share of suspensions, usually for backtalking to a teacher or pushing another kid in the hall. Jones said it was hard for Lawrence to get out of trouble when he was the kid who was always in the principal's office, the one getting looked at by the teachers and the one who other children looked at like they're ready for him to start another fight. him to start another debate. Lawrence sometimes resists Jones' advice. Lawrence has his own philosophy: "You got to give respect to get it," he said one recent Sunday afternoon in Jones' basement. "Isn't that something you get in trouble for all the time?" Jones responded. Lawrence looked at the floor. "Yea!" he said with a sigh. Lawrence's life hasn't always been about getting a fair shake. Jones said Lawrence had dealt with problems Jones can't imagine. For instance, one of Lawrence's uncles became involved with a gang and get shot. "He's gone through more in his life than most adults that I know," Jones said.

Contributed photo BY JESSICA FERGEN jfergen@kansan.com KANANS SPORTSWITTER For the second straight year, the Kansas men's club soccer team will play in the national tournament. This year, the team is looking to redeem itself. The club team traveled to nationals last year, only to return home empty handed.

"So this year we've got something to prove." we've got something to prove. The team qualified for nationals by winning the regional tournament in Wichita in October. The road through regionals wasn't a smooth one for the Jayhawks. When the team fell to Oklahoma in the first round of the tournament on Oct. 22, qualifying for the national tournament didn't look good. "We were disappointed with the result because we thought we were a better team than they were," Faddis said. "We outplayed them the entire game except the first few minutes of each half, and so we were playing from behind the rest of the game." of the game. The next morning, however, the team rallied and beat Wichita State, 7-0. A 0-0 tie with Oklahoma State University's "japan" team — a team from OSU made up entirely of Japanese exchange students — was barely enough to get the Jayhawks into the semifinals. the Jayhawks made it "It was a release, because we knew that the OSU-Japan game was going to be really tough." Aaron Siebert, Lawrence senior, said. "We were pretty pumped up that we had made it to the semifinals." seminars. Next, Kansas met in-state rival Kansas State. With two seconds left in sudden death overtime, Wichita graduate student Tim Nussbaum scored on a pass from San Diego sophomore Brian Busch and the Jayhawks defeated the Wildcats for the first time this season. for the first time that she said, "That was great, a really exhilarating moment."

PAGE 10A BASKETBALL KANSAN VOL.115 ISSUE 63 WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 17,2004 Meningitis shots will be required starting next fall BY ANDY HYLAND ahyland@kansan.com KANSAN STARP WRITER The University of Kansas will require all students living in University-owned group housing to receive a meningitis vaccination beginning on Aug. 1, 2005. Research shows that students in group housing are six times more likely to contract the disease, said Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle, associate vice provost for student success, the department that includes Student Health Services. The decision came after Andy Marso, St. Cloud, Minn., 2004 KU graduate, contracted the disease last spring. Tuttle said University officials had been debating changing the policy, which currently only encourages students to get the vaccine. "Andy Marso's situation certainly heightened awareness," she said. The vaccine will be available through Student Health Services and will cost $75 for the one-time inoculation, she said. It also will be offered at new student orientations. Groups affected by the new regulation will be those living in University owned residence halls, scholarship halls and jawhawk Towers, she said. She said the vaccine prevented 80 percent of the cases of meningitis, so there was still a risk that students could contract the disease, even with the vaccine. The University would enforce the vaccine requirement as it enforces the current required MMR vaccine policy. Tuttle said. An administrative hold would be placed on any student not receiving the vaccine, but students could sign a waiver saying they were aware of the risks and chose not to receive the vaccine anwaw. she said. Dan Marso, St. Cloud, Minn., sophomore and brother of Andy Marso, said his brother had spoken with Watkins Health Center staff and Chancellor Robert Hemenway about requiring the vaccine. vaccine "I think it'll protect a lot of students from something they really don't know a lot about," Dan said. Marso said students should not think of the vaccine as a cure-all because the form of meningitis that Andy contracted would not have been prevented by the vaccine. He said to watch out for symptoms even after the inoculation. "They also need to recognize that if they do have the symptoms, they could still have the disease," he said. - Edited by Paige Worthy 'Rock Chalk' wristbands debut Bracelets to benefit Williams Fund sold for first time at women's basketball game SCHOOL BY MIRANDA LENNING mlenning@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Kansas fans have a new way to showcase their Jayhawk pride. Rock Chalk wristbands, inspired by the yellow Lance Armstrong Live Strong bracelets, are now available. The blue bands, imprinted with "Rock Chalk," are made of the same material and resemble the Live Strong bracelets. The wristbands were available last night at the women's basketball game for the first time. They will be sold only through KUStore.com or at Kansas home athletic events for one dollar. Photo illustration by Jared Soares/KANSAN Students will have the opportunity to purchase rubber bracelets that will benefit the Williams Fund. The bracelets, mirrored after the popular Live Strong bands will be available for purchase at athletic events and on campus. All of the proceeds from the wristbands will go to the Williams Educational Fund to support student-athlete scholarships. The Kansas athletics marketing department developed the idea for the wristbands in July, during the Tour de France, said Andrew Steinberg, assistant athletics director for marketing. "We had several people in the department that followed the Tour de France closely and had their Lance Armstrong bracelets on," he said. "We start throwing out ideas on how to incorporate that into a concept the Jayhawk nation could embrace."

The panel was held last night at the Centennial Room in the Kansas Union. Panel discusses eating disorders Ginny Weatherman/KANSAN BY NIKOLA ROWE nrowe@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER www.kansan.com For nearly five years, Janette Oliff, Deerfield, III., senior, battled bulleti was actually killing him. Bulimia is an eating disorder that is characterized by binge eating and self-induced vomiting — or purging. Oliff did not binge eat. She ate sensible meals every day and purged afterwards. She said that it became so much a part of her life that she blacked out 30 seconds before and after the act and became very good and hiding it from her friends and family. "When I saw blood, I realized that I was actually killing myself." Oliiff said. No one could look at her from the outside and know that she had an eating disorder. This is one of many myths about eating disorders talked about during "The Myth of Perfection" panel discussion sponsored by the Emily Taylor Resource Center last night at the Centennial room in the Kansas Union. Near death Christina Badger, Overbrook graduate student, was first hospitalized because of her anorexia when she was 14 years old. Anorexia is a disorder where a person does not eat, normally diagnosed when the person's body weight is at least 15 percent below normal for age and height. Badger said that she would not eat for weeks at a time. "I would count cheerios in a day. Ten—that is what I ate in a day," Badger said. Her treatment at 14 didn't prove successful. She went back to the hospital her senior year of high school after her little sister noticed that she was passing out. The doctors told her that if they SEE PANEL ON 5A Info service overhaul elicits stress By Ross Fitch fitch@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER As the University of Kansas prepares to further integrate its information services, some students worry that a long-standing tradition will become a thing of the past. High Velocity Change through High Volume Collaboration, or HVC squared, is an effort to combine student information services into a single entity. It involves the KU Libraries, Information Services and the Office of Student Success. The effort is divided into different groups and task forces that are determining the best ways to organize, manage and provide information to students, faculty and staff, said Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle, associate vice provost for student success. "We don't want to send students running around," she said. "We have one stop, one service where they can get their information." "The tradition is going away, and that makes me really sad," Alisha Antlev, Halstead junior, said. Some KU Info student employees are upset because they said the organization's history will be lost with changes. Part of the integration involves the KU Libraries, which houses KU Info, a student information service traditionally known for its popular phone line. Students used to call KU Info with questions about anything, ranging from "How many trees are there on campus?" to "Are squirrels rabbits?" Though the line still exists, KU Info workers field mostly academics-related questions since the service's headquarers moved to Anschutz Library in 2003. Another factor that has upset Antley is the addition of dual roles for KU Info workers. KU Info workers are now responsible for also taking care of library patrons, assisting with copier problems and answering reference questions, she said. "It's not that it's a bad job," she said. "It's just not the job we thought we were hired for." Antley expressed concern that library administrators didn't understand that student workers saw KU Info as more than just an on-campus job. Nemeth Tuttle said she acknowledged the students' fear of changes. "I know that students who work for KU Info are well-trained and dedicated to their work and really feel attached to what it is," Nemeth Tuttle said. "If they see that changing in a way that looks unfamiliar, I can understand why they would be concerned." Some KU Info workers have even expressed their concerns to Student Senate. Others fear KU Info may disappear completely. Student Senate would do whatever it could to make sure that doesn't happen, Steve Munch, student body president, said. "I couldn't think of a better student service than KU Info," Munch said. "Regardless of what happens, we want to make sure it stays around." Munch said Student Senate would even consider taking KU Info under its wing if no other options were available. As for the KU Info phone line disappearing, Myers said students needed not worry. Students can reach KU Info at 864-3506. "There are no plans to discontinue it," he said. "There's no plan to end students responding to students." - Edited by Paige Worthy The University Daily Kansan 111 Stauffer-Flint Hall 1435 Jajawk Blvd. Lawrence, KS 66045 (785) 864-4810 © 2004 The University Daily Kansan City Commission Seven local business owners proposed a plan at last night's meeting in an attempt to get Lawrence's smoking ban lifted.

CAMPUS Panhellenic chairwoman visits Delta Gamma sorority The women of Delta Gamma saw an example this week of lifelong sisterhood. Martha Brown, who serves as the chairwoman for the National Panhellenic Conference, visited with the women at the University of Kansas this week. She offered advice and noted the changes and similarities of sisterhood throughout the years. "Membership doesn't end when college ends," Brown said. "It's just fun to belong and have a sisterhood of lifelong friends." The Delta Gamma alumna graduated from the University of North Texas in 1959. She continues to volunteer her time because of her love of the sisterhood, she said. She visits campuses around the nation to speak with administrators and to ensure the values of the Greek system are in place. She graduated with a degree in home economics and worked as a food stylist and in public relations before retiring. When she retired, she wanted to give back to the organization that gave her so much. "There's just not any amount of money that could be paid," Brown said. "It's truly a labor of love." Kelley Briani organized the visit. The Delta Gamma president saw how influential the greek system continued to be later in life. "They spend all these hours because they care about the sister Brown said that some things had changed since she was in college. She said more women had to take on part-time jobs in addition to school. hood," Briant, Dallas senior, said. Brown said she did not encounter many problems with her job except for negative press. She said she gave quotes to news organizations about events in the Greek community. "It itseems to me like there's more pressure on the college student," Brown said. "It seems like people are busier." She said her favorite part of her job was traveling and meeting with women at universities. "I think the spirit of sisterhood is as strong as it's ever been," Brown said. "It's invigorating, encouraging and really rewarding to see the women doing well."

Receiving all three grants together is amazing, Patricia Thomas, associate dean of cultural enhancement and diversity, said. "A diverse classroom is the most electrically charged classroom," Thomas said. "The country is becoming increasingly diverse, and in order to treat patients better, we need a diverse workplace." The grants will help continue the school's initiatives to create more diversity by providing opportunities for minorities and educating students and staff about diversity.

ON THE RECORD Atheist to speak tomorrow despite denied honorarium Dan Barker is scheduled to speak tomorrow in the Kansas Union despite Student Senate's decision not to fund the event. A 21-year-old KU student reported to the Lawrence police that someone had stolen a five-gallon water cooler filled with coins at about 7 p.m. Friday from the 2100 block of Quail Creek Drive. His loss is estimated at $1,000. An 18-year-old KU student reported to the University of Kansas Public Safety Office that someone had stolen a Yamaha acoustic guitar and a black guitar case sometime between 3 p.m. Friday and 9 p.m. Sunday from his room in McCollum Hall. His loss is estimated at $330. Barker is a former preacher and an atheist who works for the Freedom from Religion Foundation, an educational group working for the separation of church and state, said Andrew Stangl, Wichita sophomore and president of the Society of Open-Minded Atheists and Agnostics (SOMA). Senate denied funding to the speech because SOMA it said that the group was a religious organization, and therefore subject to rules about proselytization, said Paul Mirecki, professor and chairman of religious studies and faculty adviser for SOMA Stangl said the group sought an honorarium for Barker's speech totalling $1,500, but when Student Senate elected not to fund the speech, Barker waived the honorarium, instead seeking only $300 to reimburse his travel costs.

Let it Ride skate boards and snowboards and has been in business for nine and a half years. Another Massachusetts Street store is closing. Saturday is the last day Let It Ride will be open. John Niswonger, owner, said it was hard to understand why his shop was closing, because it was the only one of its kind in Lawrence Niswonger bought Let It Ride in Lawrence about six-and-a-half years ago during the summer in 1998. Let It Ride, 15 E. 7th St., has been in Lawrence for nine and a half years. It carries skateboards, snowboards and accessories for the two, including shoes and clothing. The store is closing because sales are down, Niswonger said. They've been down for about a year and Niswonger said there were reasons for the decrease. People are buying more stuff online and through mail order, Niswonger said. He has also seen fewer amateur skateboarders and snowboarders in the store. More kids might be going into mainstream sports, he said. Niswonger said the skateboarding industry seemed to take a dip in business every five Drew Dietrich owned Let It Ride in Lawrence before to six years. Niswonger the store.

The Overland Park store has seen the opposite from what Niswonger has seen in Lawrence, Dieterich said. He said he had seen an increase in younger skaters and a decrease in more experienced skaters. Sometimes there's a change as to what people are interested in and that can dictate how well a business can do, said Maria Martin, director for Downtown Lawrence Inc. Downtown business, for the most part, is steady, said Martin, who is also the owner of Southwest and More, 727 Massachusetts St. When one business leaves, she said, another takes its place. Niswonger said he regretted closing the store because local children would meet at the store to hang out. But he was looking forward to leaving the business because the retail business is tricky, he said. "It's kind of bittersweet," Niswong said. Owners propose smoking solution - Edited by Rupal Gor BY STEPHANE FARLEY sfarley@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Last night, seven of them had a solution. Lawrence business owners have been at city commission meetings before — often with concerns about the smoking ban. The owners proposed an ordinance already in effect in St. Louis Park, Minn. — one that allows some businesses the right to allow smoking, so long as the air quality in the designated non-smoking areas meets a set standard. The city would regulate the businesses through random check-ups, according to the written proposal. "I deeply regret the negative impact this has had on your businesses," city commissioner Dennis Highberger, said to the business owners claiming revenue losses at the meeting. But it might not change his mind on the ban. Highberger said at this point he still supports the smoking ban, but is willing to talk about the proposed ordinance. The commissioners might talk about the proposal at the Dec. 13 meeting. Sue Hack, commissioner, announced yesterday she would run for re-election. "She is someone who helps find common ground for the common good," said David Amber, Lawrence resident, who was at the meeting last night. The general election will be in March. David Schauner's and David Dunfield's terms will also expire, but they have not announced if they will seek reelection. International Education Week is this week and goes through Nov. 19. Various events, including a discussion about Lawrence's relationship with its Japanese sister city, Hiratsuka, are ongoing.

One of Bush's key selling points one week ago was that President Bush was clear on every position that he took. There was no flip-flopping to be found in the Bush camp. Well, actually, Mr. President, we do not know where you stand on one of the hottest topics in the news: civil unions. A week before the election, in an interview with ABC's news reporter Charlie Gibson, President Bush said he was open to the idea of civil unions for gay men and women. He said, "I don't think we should deny people rights to a civil union, a legal arrangement, if that's [what] a state chooses to do." When Gibson pointed out that this was a break with the Republican Party's platform, Bush embraced it. Gibson said, "So, the Republican platform on that point, as far as you're concerned, is wrong?" and Bush's response was "Right." The leader of the Republican Party blatantly disagrees with the party's platform. in an age when hot button issues such as abortion and gay marriage seem to define party membership, this piece of information would seem to be pretty important. All sorts of questions come to mind: What does President Bush mean by civil unions? What rights will be covered through a civil union? And will he actively support civil unions for gay couples? Almost three weeks after the interview, these questions are still unanswered. This issue is of great importance to both sides of the debate. Bush's base will likely have to rethink its support of Bush if he intends to actively support civil unions. On the other side, Bush might gain a whole lot of new friends on the left. Bush needs to clearly tell the public what he meant in his Oct. 26 interview. This lack of information not only rests on Bush's shoulders, however. If Bush isn't answering the questions, it probably means the media is not asking the questions. The media needs to bring this issue to the forefront. The American public wants to know what the President thinks and what he's going to do about it. Free for All Call 864-0500 Free for All callers have 20 seconds to speak about any topic they wish.

IT KEEPS PICKING UP THE STATION THAT PLAYS MICK JAGGER AND THE ROLLING STONES! STAYSKAL TRIBUTE MEDIA SERVICES 4/04 Wayne Stayskaal/KRT CAMPUS Everyone has stake in tuition hike The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences wants to raise your tuition. This increase is in addition to the University-wide tuition hike. The increase entails a $30-per-credit-hour fee for all classes in the college, which will be used to fund building and remodeling projects. This affects every student on campus, regardless of major, because every student must take CLAS courses. It may seem small: a mere $30 an hour to be phased in over three years. By the end of the three years, however, a student who enrolls in 15 hours each semester will owe an extra $900 per year, not including other tuition increases, unfortunately, that is just the tip of the iceberg. GUEST COLUMN PENNSYLVANIA JENNIFER FOSTER & GALEN TURNER opinion@kansan.com This plan will set a precedent with the Legislature. The members of the Legislature have said and shown by their votes that they are ready, willing and able to slash the amount of money allocated to the University. We must not imply that students can be used as a source for funding construction. This process will take money from the entire University, making all the schools raise their fees; tuition will continue to skrocket. Moreover, this plan will price students out. The University-wide tuition hike has already caused problems, and this fee will only squeeze students more. Administrators have proposed that 20 percent of the funds collected be used for need-based aid, but this program is modeled after the University Tuition Grant that, according to the Office of Financial Aid's The debate about the increase has largely ignored these issues. The students who stand to suffer the most cannot participate in meetings or advisery boards because they must work to eat and pay rent. As of now, the "voice of the students" is represented by student senators and others who can afford to spend their college careers in meetings. Most do not lack money, and do not understand lacking money. One argument supporting the proposed benefits is increased accessibility for the physically challenged. While this is valuable and needed, it is a matter of state law. There are many sources of money that can provide this service. However, the current drawings — no architectural plans exist yet — have answered the accessibility issue with the proposed construction of large elevated tubes. There are simpler, cheaper and better ways of fixing the problem, and better ways to fund it. The advocates of this plan also argue it would attract new faculty. While this is possibly true for the physics and chemistry departments, it is not true for the majority of liberal arts departments. The "if you build it, they will come," theory does not work in the real world. Wescoe's ugliness has yet to ruin anyone's education. While tempting, these improvements are not worth the financial burden on students. The lab sciences need new facilities, but another way to provide them must be found. So far, student concerns have been, at best, grudgingly acknowledged, but mostly rebuffed. At current, it appears that the plans are going to be taken to the Board of Regents for approval with or without student consent, or possibly with only the unrepresentative rubberstamp of Student Senate. Need must be differentiated from want. A lack of capital means we must spend thoughtfully and sparingly. Tuition should not be the initial source of funding. Only after all other sources are exhausted would it be acceptable for a small student fee to be added as a supplement. Come to the discussion at 6 p.m. Thursday in 1001 Malott Hall. Speak your mind. Galen Turner is a Lawrence graduate student in Bellinique Studies. Jennifer Foster is a Merriam graduate student in religious studies. NOTE FROM THE EDITOR Opinioneditorsresign Kansan readers: The Kansan's Oct. 27 opinion page, which featured local election endorsements, relied too heavily upon previously published material in the Lawrence Journal-World. In one case material published in the Journal-World appeared in the Kansan verbatim and without attribution. As a result, effective Nov. 11 at 5 p.m., I accepted the resignations of the Kansan's co-opinoin editors, Anna Clovis and Samia Khan. In resigning Clovis and Khan have accepted responsibility. For the remainder of the semester, Louise Stauffer and Stephanie Lovett have assumed the positions of co-opinion editors. The Kansan's policy is that all published material in the paper is original unless otherwise attributed. These standards were not met and the Kansan regrets this incident and has taken steps to ensure it will not happen again. Henry C. Jackson, editor LETTER TO THE EDITOR It's a fact that society has been constructed based on class, race and gender and not always on merit. Although people like you love to think that the starting line is the same for everybody, it's not. Where was the talk of the poor conditions of inner city schools and the decaying communities that surround them in your article? Columnist ignores racial inequality rooted in society Every time a white person implies that they have been the victim of racism because of the color of their skin I can't help but chuckle. Please, Arrah Nielsen, whites enjoy the ultimate privilege of being in charge; we're the folks that get to make all the rules. David Barrett Carbondale III. junior in sociology Shouldn't White America be held accountable for the oppression and racism that we have inflicted on minorities over the last 350 years? Oh wait I think I hear your next column calling: "Don't Blame Me, Blame My White Ancestors!" You seem to neglect the fact that these problems are part of a greater cycle of poverty and racism.

It had been so long since she had eaten that her body began to shut down; her stomach could no longer digest food. How they hide Another complication with diagnosing an eating disorder is that the patient and the family could be in denial. Many people today were of a normal weight, but had an eating disorder, said Leah Luckeroth, staff physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center. Ann Gabrick, therapist and private practice physician in Kansas City, Mo, said the signs that someone had an eating disorder were harder to see because they were more behavioral. "Sometimes family members also have eating disorders." Luckeroth said. "Eating disorders are very difficult to spot if you are just looking at outward appearances," she said. She said the signs were behavior changes, increased isolation, more frequent mood swings and an obsession with food or exercise. Gabrick is the leading educator and expert on eating disorders and has helped with understanding and treatment at Watkins. Gabrick graduated from the University of Kansas in 1976 and has worked with eating disorders since. When she worked at the University of Arizona in 1979, she said that 20 percent of the women on campus had eating disorders, and very few people knew what eating disorders were. An on-going problem There had not been an increase in eating disorders, Pamela Botts, director of Counseling and Psychological Services, said. However, there is an increase in the awareness. Botts said that CAPS saw someone with an eating disorder everyday. CAPS offers counseling services for individuals, groups and couples on campus. There was not a group counseling service for people with eating disorders at CAPS and there had not been one for several years, Botts said. If there is an interest, she said CAPS would certainly start one. Everyone with an eating disorder needs professional help, Gabrick said, and 30 to 40 percent Talk with the person in an appropriate and private setting about your concerns in a loving and supportive way, with honesty and respect. IF A FRIEND HAS AN EATING DISORDER, THESE ARE SOME THINGS YOU CAN DO: Research eating disorders. ■ Encourage the person to seek professional help as soon as possible. Be prepared for the person to deny that he or she has a problem. Tell someone else about your concerns. Don't judge. Try to avoid talking about food, weight and exercise.

The only in-patient facility for people with eating disorders in the near vicinity is the Baptist Medical Center in Kansas City, Mo. Badger is now 118 pounds, and this is the heaviest she has ever weighed. Stopping the addiction Both Badger and Oliff said that the disorders took over their lives and became like an addiction. Olifi said she still compares herself to others on the street. But Olifi also knows that the thought is dangerous. "You have to have your own self image," she said. Badger said she too is still conscious about her appearance almost all the time, but has learned to suppress her urges. "Even today, I do a calorie count of everything on my plate and I figure in my head how much exercise it will take to burn if off," Badger said. "But now I don't act on those thoughts." - Edited by Ryan Greene BRACELETS: Fans can show support anywhere CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A Steinberg said he didn't expect the bracelets to generate a lot of revenue.

And Jeffery did pull one in for a touchdown. Kansas also owned the kicking game. Johnny Beck connected on three of four field goals and Scott Webb received both points after the touchdown. Texas' Dusty Mangum got two out of three field goals. Jayhawk punter Kyle Tucker had a better game than the Longhorns' Richmond McGee, averaging 40.7 yards per kick against McGee's 32.9. Opponents should worry when even Kansas' kicking is better than their own. Texas did not worry, but only pushed on in the one area that they did do better than Kansas: rushing. Texas held John Randle nearly silent, as he averaged only .6 yards per carry, accumulating only four yards. Texas' Cedric Benson busted loose with 5.8 yards per carry for 161 yards total and a touchdown. But even though Kansas posted 40 yards rushing to Texas' 292, the combined rushers scored one touchdown apiece, not counting Young's touchdown run. The offensive pass interference on Charles Gordon fired up coach Mark Mangino, but Kansas had the edge on pass interferences as well. The Longhorns were called on 10 penalties, accounting for 103 yards, while the 'Hawks were called for three penalties for 23 yards. The point of all these statistics isn't just to show that the Jayhawks played well, but to show that they played better than the hyped-up Longhorns. The 'Hawks put themselves in an incredibly perfect position to win, yet with only 11 seconds left to play, the final score displayed the results of another game that got away. Curses or phobias cannot explain the fate of the jayhawk football team, but I'm afraid Saturday's numbers can't explain it either. Bauce is a Winfield junior in journalism QB: Injuries have hindered team's success for the past few weeks CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10A And then there's Nielsen, last week's starter. Mangino said it would be a struggle for him to play but that he could hand the ball off and throw out of a three-step drop despite virtually nonexistent mobility. Sophomore corner Charles Gordon, junior linebacker Nick Reid and other players with quarterbacking experience may be called upon to step up in the event of an emergency. Mangino said he swore this would be the week the team broke the streak. Luke will finish the game he starts. "We're very positive thinkers. We think the time is right for the guy who starts the game to finish," he said. For the last three or four weeks, both Kansas backs have struggled with injuries that have hampered the effectiveness of both junior Clark Green and sophomore John Randle. Randle began the season on the bench and rose to be the starter, but he now appears to have played his last snap of the season. "Unfortunately, I have to report that John will not play. He incurred an injury in the Texas game that is unusual in terms of football injuries," Mangino said. Mangino, who always discusses injuries in vague terms, said Randle tore a muscle "close "We're very positive thinkers. We think the time is right for the guy who starts the game to finish." Mark Mangino Football coach to an organ." The injury caused internal bleeding and will keep Randle inactive for three to four weeks. Mangino credited the team's doctor for diagnosing the injury that, left untreated, could have become very dangerous to Randle had he played or practiced. Notes: Mangino announced last week's players of the game as Mark Simmons on offense, Charlton Keith on defense and Brandon McAnderson on special teams. Simmons had eight catches for 135 yards, including a long of 73. Keith had another strong performance including a battalion.

FOOTBALI Jayhawks, Sooners to play at Arrowhead What has been anticipated for several months has finally become a reality. After several weeks of discussions and negotiations, the Athletics Department announced yesterday that the Jayhawks and the Oklahoma Sooners would meet at Arrowhead Stadium on Oct.15, 2005. "We are very excited to play a game at Arrowhead because of the large number of loyal KU alumni in the area," Athletics Director Lew Perkins said in a statement. "The idea of KU playing a game there has been talked about for a long time." The Jayhawks and the Kansas City Chiefs have been working out this deal for some time, but some details still have to be agreed upon. No price has been set for the game, for instance. It is a custom for college games played at Arrowhead to be offered specially to Chiefs season ticket holders. Associate Athletics Director Jim Marchiony said the Jayhawks would do the same, with one caveat. "We'll make sure that every student and KU season-tick-etholder who wants to go to the game will be able to," he said. That should not be a problem, because Memorial Stadium seats 50,071 and Arrowhead seats 79,101. The game will be played over the University's fall break, when many students will be away from campus. When Kansas and Oklahoma last met this season on Oct. 23, the Sooners walked away with a 41-10 victory. Jonathan Kealing Healthy'Cats optimistic about2004-05 campaign MANHATTAN — Kansas State men's basketball coach Jim Wooldridge did a doubletake when he saw the preseason All Big 12 team. Newcomer of the Year, a guy who averaged almost 15 points and eight rebounds per game and spent the offseason working hard to improve his game? Not one vote for Jeremiah Massey? How could everyone simply ignore last year's Big 12 BASKETBALI "I have always been very honest about our players and their capabilities and their production," Wooldridge said. "I think Jeremiah Massey is one of the best players in the leaque." Fortunately for the Wildcats, the 6-foot-7 Massey is not alone when the Wildcats list their talented assets. He and 6-foot-7 forward Marques Hayden are the only returning starters — not counting injury-plagued sophomore Cartier Martin — but there are some promising newcomers. The highly recruited 6-foot-8 Martin was one of the most sought-after prospects Wooldridge has signed in his five years at Kansas State. He was averaging 6.9 points and three rebounds in 20 games, including three starts, when he began struggling with injuries. If he returns to form and a couple of intriguing freshmen make immediate contributions, the Wildcats could compete for their first NCAA tournament appearance in eight seasons.

When team members found out that Kansas City would host next year's tournament, they set a collective goal to compete, Ferrari said. While travel expenses won't be a problem, the tournament's $815 entry fee is an obstacle for the team. "We feel pretty confident that we will be able to meet all of the qualifications," Ferrari said. "We've played some Division-II varsity teams this year, and we are considering entering the tournament as a Division-II team so we don't set our expectations too high." Teams are required to compete in at least three tournaments between January 1 and the NIRSA tournament to be eligible. The auction is free, and brownies and coffee will be provided. The minimum bid for each team member is $10, and the team encourages groups to pool money. Members of Delta Gamma will be at the fundraiser selling KU Men of Distinction calendars.

Freshman center Josh Duell is listed at 6-foot-8, 230 pounds, but Brennan said he was not sure whether Duell was ready to play against players like Simien. That is why he is hoping to get most of his team's frontcourt minutes from Klimes and Coppenrath, he said.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 17.2004 7A THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 'Hawks halted by free-throw woes Fourteen missed free throws key two-point defeat By BJ RAINS brains@kansan.com What caused the Kansas women's basketball team to run more than usual during Monday's practice also caused the Jayhawks to lose their final exhibition game of the season — free throws. "I would venture to guess that the definition of beating yourself would be to go 11-for-25 from the free throw line in a two-point loss," said coach Bonnie Henrickson. "That's about as telling as it gets." The Jayhawks missed 14 free throws, including three in the final minute, as they lost to the West Coast All-Stars 60-58 in their final tune-up before the regular season. The majority of the Jayhawks missed their free throws long, clanking them off the back of the rim. Senior guard Aquanita Burras said the team failed to adjust after missing early on. "We were missing them all long, and we weren't making the adjustment," Burras said. "If we needed to take a small step back, then that's what we should have done." Free throws take concentration and focus, Henrickson said, and that was something the Jayhawks did not have last night. After the game, Burras tried to explain the Jayhawks' struggles from the line, but couldn't come up with an answer. "I really don't know why," she said. "We practice them a lot in practice. It was just us not concentrating. They just weren't falling for us tonight." KANSAS 23 Ginny Weatherman/KANSAN Junior forward Crystal Kemp was one of the few bright spots for the Jayhawks. She had 20 points and 14 rebounds, but also struggled at the line. She went four-for-eight, and like Henrickson, she pointed to free throws as the biggest red flag on the stat sheet. "When you miss 14 free throws, and only lose by 2 points, that's definitely the key to the game," Kemp said. "We just didn't come ready to play today." Junior guard Erica Hallman, dodges West Coast All-Stars guard LaShaunda Fowler. Kansas lost to the West Coast All-Stars last night in Allen Fieldhouse, 60-58. Each day during practice, the Jayhawks must make 80 percent of their free throws to avoid having to run extra. Ironically, Henrickson said, Monday's practice was the first in a while in which they did not reach the 80-percent mark. She added that her team shot free throws very well during most practices, and that last night was not a sign of things to come for the Jayhawks. "Are we better free throw shooters than that, certainly we are," Henrickson said. "Free throws are M&Ms — mental and mechanical. It was mental tonight. We weren't ready." After struggling to find words to explain the Jayhawks' struggle at the line, Burras finally realized what must have happened. ized what must have happened. "The line moved up on us during shoot around," she joked. Edited by Ryan Greene ALL-STARS: Defeat full of lost opportunities CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10A The All-Stars kept up the defensive pressure to start the second half. "I came out defensively minded to stop them a little more in the second half," said West Coast coach Jerry Gatewood. As the second half began, Kansas came out and missed its first nine shots, an offensive ineptitude Henrickson said characterized the entire game. The All-Stars seized the momentum after taking a 35-33 lead with a shot and free-throw by guard Denise King at the "It's not just free throws," Henrickson said. "It's missed box outs and not recognizing switching defenses." 16:24 mark. King finished with 20 points to lead West Coast. After a Kansas drought that lasted until the 14:40 mark, Kemp hit a short jumper to bring the Jayhawks to within two points at 37-35. Kansas and West Coast traded the lead seven times in the second half until the All-Stars regained the advantage with four minutes remaining. A three-pointer by guard Lashaunda Fowler put the All-Stars ahead for good, 58-53. Despite the five-point deficit, Kansas had several opportunities to climb back into the game, but poor shooting and decision-making sealed the Jayhawks' fate. As Kansas held the ball with 1:29 left, junior guard Kaylee Brown turned the ball over and forced the Jayhawks to start fouling for possessions. "We need to keep our composure and execute," Brown said. "We didn't play our pace." In the final minute, Kansas continued its cold shooting and could not capitalize on West Coast's turnovers. After a free-throw by senior guard Aquanita Burras made the score 58-54, Burras stole a half-court pass by the All-Stars. Brown was fouled on the ensuing possession, but made only one of two free throws to close within three. Again, West Coast turned the ball over with 37 seconds left, giving the Jayhawks another opportunity, and Burras scored to cut the West Coast lead to 58-57. An immediate Kansas foul on the All-Stars' ensuing position put King on the free-throw line and her two made shots pushed the lead back to 60-57. The last possession brought Kansas several opportunities to tie the game, but Brown and junior guard Erica Hallman both missed three-point attempts. Sophomore forward Alicia Rhymes made a free throw with three-tenths of a second left for the final Jayhawk point. The exhibition loss was Kansas' first defeat in its last 11 preseason games and only the second in its previous 18.

The Jayhawks lost to the West Coast All-Stars last night in Allen Fieldhouse. Ginnv Weatherman/KANSAN BY PAUL BRAND bPRand@ku.edu kPANANDSWITERWRIER In the game's opening minutes, the Kansas women's basketball team looked assured of a victory. The Jayhawks jumped out to a 15-4 lead to start its exhibition matchup against the West Coast All-Stars, but shooting problems and a lack of intensity eventually led to a 60-58 defeat. "It didn't seem like we came to play at all," said junior forward Crystal Kemp, who led Kansas with 20 points and 14 rebounds. Coach Bonnie Henrickson said she agreed, but thought the Jayhawks could take something important from the mental collapse that hindered their effort. One of the most obvious mental issues that faced the Jayhawks showed at the free-throw line where Kansas finished 11-25. "We learned a lesson about coming right and being ready to play," Henrickson said. Long range shooting also hurt the Jayhawks as the team shot only 3-21 from three-point range. After leading the entire first half, an unfocused Jayhawk team allowed the All-Stars to close within three at the break by not responding well to the All-Stars' full-court press and changing defensive scheme and giving up 10 turnovers.

Because of the hype surrounding the 6-foot-9, 255-pound preseason All-American, opposing teams will likely put two defenders on Simien when he gets near the basket. Simien will have to do a better job getting around those double teams than he did against Washburn Sunday night. The Ichabods doubled-up on Simien for most of the first half and held him scoreless until he got his first field goal with six minutes to go before halftime. His back-to-back buckets at that point were his only field goals in the first half. Simien said he knew he would face double teams this season, so he should be reacy for it. "We know people are going do it, so we are going to work on that and be ready for it," he said. Self said the team had not spent much time working on double-team sit- "We know people are going to do it, so we are going to work on that be ready for it." Wayne Simen Senior forward uations in practice. He said that was one of the reasons Simien struggled in the post Sunday, and the team would work more on it this week. The Jayhawks face the Vermont Catamount Friday, and they will likely double-team Simien, Vermont coach Tom Brennan said. "He is definitely a problem because he likes to get the ball inside, and he is hard to guard in there," he said. "We will have two of our guys on him." Vermont's starting big men, sophomore center Martin Klimes and senior forward Taylor Coppenrath, are both about 6-foot-8. Coppenrath may be the best player to ever play for Vermont, Brennan said. He averaged 20.1 points per game last season. He joins Simien on preseason watch lists for the Wooden and Naismith awards, given to college basketball's best players. Klimes started seven games for the Catamounts last season, and played in all of the other games in a reserve role. Brennan said Vermont would play some man-to-man defense with a double team on Simien, but he would consider playing zone. "We are not really a zone team, but we are going to have to do whatever works to stop Simien and prevent those other guys from scoring from the outside," Brennan said. Brennan said he was most worried about his players fouling out. Other than Coppenrath and Klimes, the Catamounts are thin at frontcourt positions.

For the fourth consecutive week, Karsas will start a different quarterback. This week: it will be junior Brian Luke, who came on to relieve senior John Nielsen last week. Luke went 14-of-21 for 225 yards with a touchdown and finished his first game since a preseason injury.Luke said he was convinced he could be the first quarterback to play through an entire game. "The way I look at it, I already had my injury this year." he said. Luke's first appearance of the season came against Iowa State two weeks ago. He lasted only a short period of time, fumbling and losing the ball out of bounds. Last week, he looked much more prepared to be playing in a Division-I game. "I felt really comfortable going into the game," Luke said. "I prepared last " Brian Luke Quarterback prepared last week like I was going to start." felt really comfortable going into the game.I I Mangito was perfectly clear yesterday at his weekly press conference that Luke would start this Saturday.

Although he was not the dominating quarterback of the afternoon, his team did hold the lead in the only quarter he finished. It was the first quarter and the Kansas defense did not believe in letting the opposing team score until at least the second quarter. Stats don't explain defeat The Jayhawks played in a way that did not reflect the final score. They were playing No. 6 Texas, the almighty Longhorns, and they were not supposed to win. Although the Kansas football team was predicted to lose by more than 20 points to Texas on Saturday, it seemed like the Jayhawks should have finished their senior day victoriously. By looking at the numbers, Kansas did not deserve to lose. Most of Saturday's stats point to the 'Hawks as the victors, but obviously they were not. Was it a curse, a bad omen, a phobia of winning? Exit Nielsen, enter Brian Luke. Shudders probably went through the entire Kansas crowd to see this after his performance in the Iowa State game. He settled fears, however, by picking up 225 yards and succumbing to just one sack. Together, the pair of quarterbacks racked up 308 yards passing. Texas starter Vincent Young did not match the third and fourth string duo, throwing for 289 yards and getting砂挫 twice. So is that why Kansas lost? Because they were supposed to? Nonetheless, Nielsen survived the first quarter and eight minutes of the second quarter without getting sacked or without fumbling, and accumulated 83 yards of total offense.

Stability. These were what Jeff Dunlap, student body vice president, said incoming freshmen and their families would have if the University of Kansas had a guaranteed tuition rate. The Student Rights and University Affairs committees passed the resolution to support the concept of guaranteed tuition rates bill at last night's Student Senate committee meeting. If full Student Senate approves the resolution in two weeks, the Student Senate might be one step closer to a guaranteed tuition rate. STUDENT THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS SENATE www.kansan.com A guaranteed tuition rate would force administrators to plan four years in advance to set a tuition rate. The proposal would set a tuition rate for incoming freshmen that would be consistent for their four years at the University. The plan would not be implemented until 2007, after the five year tuition enhancement plan was complete. The incoming freshmen class of 2011 would be the first class of students to be affected by the proposal. A set tuition rate was part of KUited's platform when Steve Munch, student body president, and Dunlap ran last spring. Munch and Dunlap began discussing a proposal with Provost David Shulenburger during the summer. Since then, administrators have worked on the logistical issues of a proposal. Questions such as how the University would decide a fixed price and how the University would collect enough money each year still needed to be discussed, said Lindy Eakin, vice provost of administration and finance. Eakin said the University was explor in feasibility and agreed the benefits would be to students and their families. "We can clearly communicate to people," Eakin said. "Here's what the cost of your education is going to be." Eakin said administrators also needed to decide how the University would handle special cases, such as graduate and transfer students. Dunlap, Leawood senior, said differential tuition in each school should also be incorporated into the plan. Munch and Dunlap looked at other universities with fixed tuition rates to research the plausibility of the proposal.

Jerad Hurst Lawrence senior Atheist spreads anti-'word' BY ANDY HYLAND ahyland@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Dan Barker made his views clear last night. "Christianity is not true. Christianity is a huge lie," said Barker, a preacher-turned-atheist. "The evidence for the existence of God is faulty." The member of Freedom from Religion Foundation was at ease as he told the story of what he called his "deconversion" to the assembled crowd of about 500 people at an event sponsored by the Society for Open-Minded Atheists and Agnostics at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. "When I was 15 years old, I felt this conviction within me that I should preach this gospel," he said. "And so I preached. I felt like I was a soldier on the front lines for Jesus." He often sang songs of praise such as "He Touched Me" to illustrate his points as he told of his conversion to Christianity. Barker said his faith was affirmed often, like when he prayed that a member of his traveling church singing quartet would be able to speak again after the member had lost his voice. His voice soon came back. "When you believe in God, and the power of the Holy Spirit, when you see things like this happening, it's terribly affirming," he said. That began a slow process by which he started to question the basic tenets of his faith, he said, and eventually he reached the point where he felt that even God was a figure of speech. But then, when he reached his early 30s, he said, "Something started to happen." "I had dumped out all the bath water, and I found out there's no baby there," he said. He said he began to read philosophers and "basic science." He was careful to make sure his message was not misinterpreted. He said that the ones who were the problem were "right-wing Christians" who didn't support the separation of "We don't need to insult people we're all human beings," he said. "I think most Christians are good people." "Some of it was hard to hear," she said. "I have experienced some of those awesome 'God' experiences. It's hard to hear that somebody thinks that's a lie." Jennifer Wilson, Omaha, Neb., junior and a Christian, said she was glad Barker came. She said she was happy she went, and would think about what Barker said. Justin Gramarye, Fairfax, Va., graduate student, said that the easy way to describe his religion was to call him an atheist. "I have utter contempt for these Christians." he said. church and state. "I respect him for having an open mind even as a fundamentalist." he said. He said the best part of having him speak was just to get the word out. Andrew Stangl, Wichita sophomore and president of SOMA, said Barker was there to speak in spite of obstacles such as people ripping down the group's flyers, Student Senate not wanting to fund Barker's speech and The University Daily Kansan not printing the correct date in yesterday's paper.

NATION GOP lawmakers amend rule to protect influential leader WASHINGTON — House Republicans demonstrated their loyalty to Majority Leader Tom DeLay yesterday, changing a party rule that would have cost him his post if he were indicted by a Texas grand jury that has charged three of his associates. The change received approval in a voice vote that showed Republicans' eagerness to protect the leader who raised countless campaign dollars for them. He also engineered a redistricting plan in Texas that caused five Democratic losses through retirement or election defeats. DeLay watched from the back of the room but did not speak as GOP lawmakers struggled in closed session before ending a requirement that leaders indicted on felony charges relinquish their positions. Republicans will now decide a House leader's fate in a case-by-case review. The dilemma was to shield DeLay in a case that he views as political, while not giving blanket protection to any leader indicted for a crime that clearly has no political overtones. ON THE RECORD The Associated Press A 20-year-old KU student reported to the KU Public Safety Office that someone had stolen a red and gray Columbia coat sometime between 10 a.m. Nov. 10 and 9 a.m. Friday.

WORLD U.S.death toll reaches 1,214 as bloody month continues BAGHAD, Iraq — A suicide car bomber blasted an American convoy north of Baghdad and U.S. troops battled insurgents west of the capital yesterday as a wave of violence across Iraq's Sunni Muslim heartland killed at least 27 people. American forces pursued their search-and-destroy mission against the remaining holdouts in the former insurgent bastion of Fallujah. November became one of Iraq's bloodiest months as the U.S. death toll in the war in Iraq reached 1,214 according to figures released by the Defense Department.

The first 20 speakers all urged the council to reject the ordinance. Most of those were members of the Rev. Fred W. Phelps Sr.'s congregation at Westboro Baptist Church, which has conducted anti-homosexual picketing in Topeka and other cities since 1991. Council members voted 5-4 to approve the ban. City attorney Brenden Long said the measure affects the city of Topeka's hiring practices and not the public at large. He said Shawnee County commissioners passed a similar measure last year. Council members then voted 5-4 to amend the ordinance to remove the phrase "gender identity or expression." The council initially considered a proposal that would have inserted the terms "sexual orientation, or gender identity or expression" into sections of city code that ban discrimination based on other reasons. Those coming to the lectern included many from conservative Christian churches, who suggested passage of the ordinance would define homosexuals as a protected class. They questioned whether the measure would stand up to legal challenges. Proponents of the ordinance said gay people don't choose to be homosexual, and that the city has a moral obligation to protect human rights. About 70 people addressed the coun- "It does not matter what form discrimination takes, we should at every step attempt to prevent it," said Topeka lawyer Pedro Irigonegaray.

Nikola Rowe Republicans to attempt labeling repeal THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Telling consumers where their meat, fruit and vegetables came from seemed such a good idea to U.S. ranchers and farmers in competition with imports that Congress two years ago ordered the food industry to do it. But meatpackers and food processors fought the law from the start, and newly emboldened Republicans now plan to repeal it before Thanksgiving. As part of the 2002 farm bill, country-of-origin labeling was supposed to have gone into effect this fall. Congress last year postponed it until 2006. Now, House Republicans are trying to wipe it off the books as part of a spending bill they plan to finish this month. House Majority Whip Roy Blunt, (R-Missouri), said he expected the Senate to agree to repealing the measure, whose main champion two years ago was Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, (D-South Dakota). "F or republicans to deny Americans the opportunity to buy American' at the grocery store is anticonsumer, anti-farmer, and anti-rancher." Tom Daschle Senate minority leader President Bush never supported mandatory labeling. Chances for repealing the law improved when Daschle, still his party's leader in the Senate, was defeated for re-election Nov. 2. "I can't find any real opposition to doing exactly what we want to do here." Blunt said. "For Republicans to deny Americans the opportunity to 'buy American' at the grocery He and other Western senators were making an effort to keep repeal of the labeling law out of the wide-ranging spending bill Congress plans to pass before it leaves. Democrats acknowledged there was not much of an appetite to wage a battle over it. store is anti-consumer, anti-farmer and anti-rancher," Daschle said yesterday. "Everybody realized it was going to cost a lot of money, and ranchers were going to have to bear most of that," said Sen. Jim Talent, (R-Missouri), chairman of a Senate Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry subcommittee on the issue. Those who want the repeal say the labeling system is so expensive that it far outweighs any benefit to consumers. The Agriculture Department has estimated the cost could range from hundreds of millions to billions of dollars in the first year alone. Opponents of mandatory labeling say they are amenable to voluntary labels. Grocery Manufacturers Association spokeswoman Stephanie Childs cited the government's voluntary standards for labeling organic food and said, "That's the sort of thing we should be looking toward." Supporters of the labeling requirement says opponents want the repeal so producers will not have to spend money getting ready to follow the law. The House Agriculture Committee approved legislation this year to substitute a voluntary system for the current law. Producers in favor of mandatory labels believe consumers will prefer U.S.-grown food over foreign imports. The law requires companies to put country-of-origin labels on meat, vegetables and fruit. The issue divides cattlemen and other livestock producers. Many of the bigger livestock and feedlot operations, as well as food processors, do not want mandatory labelling. "We really feel that country- of-origin labeling is one of the key things we need to keep ourselves competitive in that market. I understand the trade-offs," said Doran Junek, a rancher in Brewster. Junck also is executive director of the Kansas Cattlemen's Association, an affiliate of R-CALF United Stockgrowers of America. Consumer groups say the issue is whether buyers have a right to know where their food came from. "When nutrition labeling was suggested by advocates 25 years ago, the industry kept saying, 'Oh, we can't do that,'" said Carol Tucker Foreman, director of food policy for the Consumer Federation of America. "Look, they've done it. They love it. Consumers use it." The wrangling does not affect fish because Congress did not include fish last year when it delayed the mandatory labeling. Fresh and frozen fish will be required to carry labels beginning in April. Russia developing unique nuclear weapons THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MOSCOW — Russia is developing a new nuclear missile system unlike any weapon held by other countries, President Vladimir Putin said yesterday, a move that could serve as a signal to the United States as Washington pushes forward with a missile defense system. Putin gave no details about the system or why Russia was pursuing it, and it was unclear whether the Kremiln's cashtrapped armed forces could even afford an expensive new weapon. But in remarks that could also be aimed at a domestic audience, he told a meeting of the top leadership of the armed forces that the system could be deployed soon, the ITAR-Tass news agency reported. "We are not only conducting research and successful tests on state-of-the-art nuclear missile systems, but I am convinced that these systems will appear in the near future," Putin said. "Moreover, they will be systems, weapons that not a single other nuclear power has, or will have, in the near future." "We'll continue our efforts to build our armed forces and its nuclear component," he said. ITAR-Tass indicated the new system could be a mobile version of the Topol-M ballistic missile, which have been deployed in silos since 1998. But Alexander Pikaye, a senior military analyst with Moscow's Institute for Global Economy and International Relations, said Putin seemed to be referring to the Bulava intercontinental ballistic missile, a solid fuel missile that had its first test in September. "Putin apparently wanted to boast the success of his military reform effort ... to both the military and the broad public," Pikayev said. "His statement also intended to show that Russia is regaining its status as a great power which can't be ignored." Russian officials had stated earlier that the Bulava could be developed in both sea- and land-based versions and equipped with warheads capable of penetrating missile defense, Pikayev said. He said if the Bulava proves capable, it would represent a major success because it would show that Russia has succeeded in modernizing its missile forces despite the shortage of funds. "It will ring the bell for the Americans, forcing Washington to reassess its estimates," Pikavev said. White House spokesman Scott McClellan said it wasn't news to the Bush administration, and that President Bush and Putin had discussed the issue previously. He emphasized there were agreements in place to reduce the two countries' nuclear arsenals and noted Moscow is now a partner in the war on terrorism. "This is not something that we look at as new," he said. "We are very well aware of their long-standing modernization efforts for their military. We are allies now in the global war on terrorism." McClellan suggested that close ties between Bush and Putin makes alarm unnecessary — but doesn't eliminate Washington's concern. "We have a very different relationship than we did in the Cold War," he said. "The fact that we do have a good relationship enables us to speak very directly to our Russian friends." Christopher Langton, head of defense analysis at London's International Institute for Strategic Studies, said it appeared to be the first time that Russian officials had spoken publicly about a new deterrent, though he has no idea what the system might be. "He said it was, firstly, unique and, secondly, capable of defeating any space-based defense system, which is clearly putting the spotlight on the anti-missile of the United States," Langton said.

Outfoxed uses and exploits all these tenets of bad reporting in an effort to expose what it calls bad reporting. Then it goes further to stretch the truth. Rather's politics ignored while Fox News attacked Now that Bush has been decisively re-elected, despite Dan Rather and CBS's best efforts to thwart his campaign, we still wait for Rather to step down as anchor for CBS after reporting on George W. Bush's military record with fake documents. Few journalists are afforded the opportunity to correct an error before it's too late. Rather was given this privilege, and he still ran with the story, only to drop the ball several yards short of the touchdown he had hoped for. Kathleen Parker, Tribune Media Service commentator, reported that some analysts within CBS said that the documents it had received could not be authenticated and warned Rather and CBS producers about it. But the story went anyway. The odd part about the whole scandal is that for all the talk in this election cycle of how slanted Fox News is for the conservatives, there is little backwash going against CBS and Dan Rather for its much clearer slant for the Democrats. His and CBS's 60 Minutes II strikeout fueled the fear that Rather is no longer reporting the news, but he's making it instead. It was not Rather's first dubious decision. He launched a verbal joust with then-President George H.W. Bush, and has been donating money to the Democrats ever since. Rather gave a half-hearted apology but has hardly been held accountable. CBS as a whole has come under relatively little scrutiny, at least relative in terms to Fox News, which was assaulted during the election cycle from the auspices of a Robert Greenwald "documentary" called Outfoxed. Since the release of Outfoxed, MoveOn.org, a clever Web site that window-dresses a voter registration drive to a liberal agenda, made sure everyone knew about it. After all, the organization should promote it; the organization paid for portions of the film's budget. The University of Kansas was certainly listening as the film was screened on campus and even in classes. Even more amusing is the fact that it was shown in journalism classes. BEELER'S VIEW These are the same classes that teach students to avoid unnamed sources, to be wary of relying on former employees for accurate information and to always give the other side STEVE SPEAKS, IT MUST BE SO A NEW DIRECTOR SUSTAINED BY STEVE VOCKRODT opinion@kansan.com Seemingly solid evidence of the station's tilt in its news coverage was taken too far. Somehow, Outfoxed distorts the meaning of an internal memo from John Moody, senior vice president for news. Taken from March of this year when the 9/11 Commission Report was about to be released, the memo read: "This is not what did he know and when did he know it stuff. Do not turn this into Watergate." It might seem that Fox News was going to bat for the president, but then the Report reaffirmed what Moody already said. The Report absolved President Bush of direct, or even indirect, wrongdoing in the Sept. 11 catastrophe. Despite the greatest efforts of Outfoxed and CBS, conservatives weren't disciplined and Bush was reelected in the process. Maybe that's saying something. Perhaps what it's saying is that 60 million voters aren't going to allow another entity to do the thinking for them. And the Report was anything but a Watergate-type situation to begin with. Moody's clairvoyance was warped into prejudice by Outfoxed. None of the other broadcasters, even CBS, could turn it into Watergate. Maybe because it wasn't there to begin with. Nate Beeler/KRT CAMPUS It's not wrong of Rather to have his views, but it is wrong to allow his views to interfere with his news coverage. It's possible Rather would feel more at home in an opinion talk show, and maybe that's where he belongs. But Outfoxed isn't about to let these details get in the way of the film's objective to think for the viewers. Vockrout is a Denver senior in journalism and political science. ARAFAT BELLER by KRT CAMPUS Dove Sexiness sells calendars-period The 2005 Women of KU calendar is out, giving a fresh crop of women an opportunity to "feel feminine," as Miss December put it. COMMENTARY Get serious. The last time I checked, feeling feminine had nothing to do with feeling like a sex object. SOMMERTIME Mouths open, cleavage spilling out and bodies contorted into provocative poses, these women are selling sex. So why can't they just admit it? LOUISE STAUFFER opinion@kansan.com Any woman can do what she pleases. But proponents of swimsuit calendars forget, or pretend to anyway, what the purpose of these pictures is. They are for men to consume, nothing more, nothing less. The real question is, why do these women really do it? Ann Cudd, professor of philosophy and director of women's studies, says it's appealing for these women to appear in calendars because of the many payoffs: Compliments from men and women possible dates, envious looks from other women, etc. Opportunities to meet and network with wealthy and important men are possible, she says. The downsides of appearing in swimsuit calendars are minimal to them as individuals. The disadvantages mainly accrue to women as a group, who are stereotyped and degraded as a result of this kind of behavior, she says. So, Women of KU, when you show the whole world what you look like basically naked, it's not just affecting you. It's affecting every woman. "It's a good reason to keep our grades high." she said. The biggest laugh came when I read in a University Daily Kansan story that one of the models said she was chosen for the calendar because of her involvement with intramural volleyball and her grade point average. Let's get this out of the way: Posing with a few square inches of lycra stretched across your breasts is nothing but an old-fashioned beauty contest. Right. What this calendar has is boobs, not brains. So, does that mean smart women In addition to listing each model's GPA and other academic information, the biography section of the calendar shares their hobbies (some listed wine, working out and changing their hair color!). This is the pathetic way that the calendar tries to give each objectified women a "personality" beyond T&A. with cellulite and bad skin can pose for the calendar next year? Let's get this straight. When this calendar is hanging in some guy's dorm room, the last thing he's thinking about is the A the calendar girl got in organic chemistry. Cudd cited a phenomenon called "the tragedy of commons." Each individual can benefit herself by behaving in a way that, when many individuals do it, harms all of them collectively. When a few women pose as sex objects, whether in calendars, magazines or ads on television, it affects everyone's world view. More and more women want to look that way. This is evident in the rise of plastic surgery, especially in young women. From 2002 to 2003 the number of girls 18 and younger who got breast implants nearly tripled, from 3,872 to 11,326, according to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. Among all age groups, cosmetic implants have skyrocketed in popularity, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Last year, according to the ASPS, about 247,000 women got implants for breast augmentation, compared with only 32,000 in 1992. fessor of anthropology and women's studies at Vassar College, said she saw a problem with women's access to the public eye being only through beauty. These young women think that appearance is key, not only to happiness, but to getting noticed. "I'm concerned that, for example, we can't get an audience for the WNBA or an audience for Women's Soccer League. Those are also stages for women. In a recent television interview on CNN, Colleen Ballerino Cohen, pro- "That's the crux of the issue," she said. "Is that how you get attention?" Getting attention for one's looks can feel good. After shedding my baby fat and braces in high school, I found myself elected to homecoming court (a shameless popularity contest). I bought a dress, got my hair done, and rode around in a convertible during half-time with my sweaty, footballplayer male counter-part-elect. I wasn't elected because I was on the school newspaper or ran track. Homecoming queens are popularity and beauty contestants. Did it feel good then? Sure. Do I look back now and see how stupid it was? Definitely. Like many women I know, I don't go around in sweats and refuse to wear makeup. But when we get to know someone, whether it's a potential mate or a future employer, we don't want them to judge us on whether we would look good on the cover of the Sports Illustrated swim-suit issue. Getting noticed for your looks has little to do with you as a person. Rather, it's saying you think your body is the only good thing about you. Viewers of the calendar are not focusing on GPAs and hobbies. It's more like, "Nice tits, nice ass." Think about what some guys do with these images. They sexually satisfy themselves. Is that what being "feminine" is all about, being someone's sex object? Leave that to the porn stars. The key to a women's success and happiness has more to do with brains than boobs.

Kristan Seibel, Jr/Sr CLAS senator, expressed concern in the University Affairs Committee last night. She said a guaranteed tuition rate would be unjust to incoming freshmen, as freshman students would pay more for a class than senior students enrolled. “It's a philosophical notion that you should be paying equally for what you're getting,” said Seibel, Salina junior. Although the proposal for the concept would ensure movement and student support on the plan, Munch and Dunlap said they still needed to finalize the proposal. "There's no real precedent for developing something like this," Munch said. The proposal will likely be taken to the Board of Regents in the spring, Eakin said.

She will perform double duty tonight, conducting one piece and playing trumpet for others. She used colors to explain the theme of the concert. She said brighter tones were considered yellow while minor notes were purple. "The modern way of thinking in the music world is in a color sense." Leopold said. "You attribute a color to the sound." The concert will be unique, she said, because of the variance in works performed. She credited the high caliber of the ensemble to the standards and rehearsal techniques of conductor John Lynch. "He's risen the level of the program," Leopold said. She said three years ago the ensemble could not have performed music this difficult. Lynch became director of bands in Fall 2002. He conducts the wind ensemble in addition to overseeing the band program and teaching conducting lessons. He said that because music was a nonverbal form of expression, musicians interacted at a level words could not express. "It's highly abstract because it's not connected to anything visual," Lynch said. "It involves the head, the heart, the mind and the spirit." The KU Wind Ensemble plays the most complex repertoire and is the most advanced of the concert bands at the University, he said. Lynch said the first half of the program would include chamber music, with one musician playing on each part, and the second portion would include larger ensemble pieces. He said Tichell's Symphony No. 2 included three movements, each with a different theme. The movements — titled Shooting Stars, Dreams Under a New Moon and Apollo Unleashed — each try to capture the ideas of their titles in an abstract way, he said. “It’s quite a bit of fun to be in an ensemble that plays this well,” trumpeter Randel said. “It’s definitely the best ensemble I’ve ever been in.” Randel has played trumpet for about 10 years and practices 10 to 15 hours per week, he said. The members learn their ensemble parts outside of rehearsal so Lynch can bring them all together during rehearsal, he said. Randel described the concert as eclectic, including arrhythmic pieces with harsh dissonances, biting instrumentation and also big band marches. He explained dissonance as tones listeners would not usually associate together because of a harsh clash feeling. The concert will also feature the premiere performance of a new composition, Randel said. He considers it an honor that composers trust the KU Wind Ensemble to premiere their pieces. Conductor Leopold made an analogy between the concert and sports. "It's like game time," Leopold said. "We've been practicing all week and it's time to perform."

PAGE 6B SPORTS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18,2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Mangino fined $5000 BY JONATHAN KEALING jkealing at kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER Kansas coach Mark Mangino's wait is finally over. Unfortunately for him, the wait was not for good news. Yesterday evening, the Big 12 Conference office announced that Mangino would be publicly reprimanded for his comments and fines $5,000 for the remarks. After Saturday's football game, Mangino came into the press room blaming everyone but his own team for the loss to No. 6 Texas. "You know what this is about, don't you?" Mangino asked the assembled reporters. "BCS. That's what made a difference today in the game. That's what made a difference in the call in front of their bench. Dollar signs." After cooling off, Mangino issued a statement publicly apologizing for his remarks and recanting them. He also called the Big 12 office Sunday and apologized. "Coach Mangino's public statement called into question the integrity of the conference and its officials." Big 12 Commissioner Kevin Weiberg said in a statement. "To insinuate that games are called unfairly so that one member Joseph H. Lansing www.kansan.com MANGINO institution can prevail over another is irresponsible and completely baseless. Weiberg cited both of Mangino's actions when explaining the Conference's decision on sanctions. "I took into account that Mangino immediately recognized the severity of the public comments," Weiberg said. "The penalty in this situation would have been more severe if not for these prompt actions." According to Big 12 Sports Information Director Bo Carter, the decision takes this long because the conference first solicits information from the Athletics Director, receives their opinion and makes a decision. Perkins has stood behind Mangino from the moment he made his first comments, however he said in the statement that he was pleased Mangino had elected to apologize. "I know he is genuinely remorseful about this entire incident. We are fortunate to have him leading our football program." Perkins said. After practice yesterday, Mangino briefly addressed the situation. "I accept it and the matter is closed. I'm looking forward to Missouri," Mangino said. All week, Mangino had expressed remorse and regret over his words after the game. Mangino elected not to comment when asked if he or the institution would be paying his fine. Football notes After practice yesterday, Mangino announced that he was pleased with sophomore quarterback Adam Barmann's practice so far this week. Mangino said that, pending a final medical release, he expected Barmann to "at the very least" be able to serve in an emergency role. Barmann last saw the field about a month ago in the team's 41-10 loss to Oklahoma. — Edited by Ashley Doyle KASAN JASHRA Courtney Kublen/KANSAN Christian Moody, junior forward, guards Washburn's Travis Robbins in the second half of Sunday night's game. Coach Bill Self announced yesterday that Moody would fill the team's fifth start-ing position in tomorrow's game. Walking on to a starting role BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER When junior forward Christian Moody came to the Kansas basketball team two years ago as a walk-on, he wasn't sure his role would be to help the team on the court. "I knew that I wanted to be able to contribute in whatever ways I could," Moody said, "whether it be in practice or helping the team GPA." With the announcement from coach Bill Self yesterday that Moody would start in tomorrow's game against Vermont, the 6-foot-8 forward from Asheville, N.C., found encouragement that he has become more than just a team grade-raiser in his time at Kansas. He has become a starter. "I wanted to do whatever I could to be a contributing player on the team and not just a name," Moody said. "I didn't have any expectations about playing time, but I'm excited about what's happening." Moody has become more than just a name on the roster, Self said, because of his work ethic in practice and his ability to perform multiple functions for the team. "He can do a lot of everything; he probably a jack-of-all-trades, master-of- Moody beat out freshmen forwards C.J. Giles, Sasha Kaun and Darnell Jackson for the starting role, because Self said Moody had the best grasp of the system with his previous experience. none kind of guy," Self said. "Whatever you need him to do, hopefully he'll be able to come through and do it. I see that being Christian's role." "The freshmen are coming along fine," Self said. "But they're not as ready to help us win the game right now as what Christian is in pressure situations." Self said Moody provided the best perimeter defense of the players fighting for the final starting spot, but he still needed to work on his running in transition and aggressiveness. The lack of aggressiveness was evident at one point in the Washburn game Sunday, when Self pulled Moody from the game because he failed to get a rebound after boxing on a free throw. Moody responded well after the substitution, and Self said he was pleased with the aggressiveness he saw from the forward in the second half. Moody said he originally thought that being a walk-on would give him a disadvantage when it came to earning playing time. SEE MOODY ON PAGE 2B VOLLEYBALL Longhorn player kills Jayhawks BY BILL CROSS bcross@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The Kansas volleyball team started an offensive fireworks show last night, but No. 11 Texas finished it. The Jawhaws hit .457 in the first set, dominating in the middle of the net, where junior middle blocker Josi Lima had seven kills on eight attempts. She had no errors, giving her a .857 hitting percentage — kills divided by attempts — as the Longhorns appeared outgunned. The Jawhaws won the first set, 30-23. Good hitting choices and solid blocking — something that has been evasive for the Jayhawks — contributed to the team's early success last night, Kansas coach Ray Bechard said. "We were very efficient and our blocking was aggressive," he said. But Texas, a team with the third best attack percentage in the NCAA, quickly became the teacher at the hitting clinic. The Longhorns hit more than .430 in the next two games. They were led by senior outside hitter Mira Topic, coming off her fourth Big 12 Conference Player of the Week award of the season, a conference record. Topic became the all-time kills leader in Texas history last night as she posted a match-high 23. After being dominated in the second and third sets, 16-30 and 11-30, the Jayhawks fought back in the third game, but Topic had eight kills, a total no Kansas player could match, and led her team to a clinching 30-25 victory. Bechard said Texas' improved hitting in the middle of the match facilitated the momentum swing. "Texas turned the tables on us halfway through game two and took control," he said. The loss drops Kansas to 15-11 overall and 6-11 in the conference, good for seventh in the Big 12. In order to stay there and likely make a tournament, the team will have to defeat other teams in similar situations, including Texas Tech (9-14, 4-12) and Colorado (13-12, 8-10). A victory against its next opponent, No. 13 Texas A&M, would give Kansas an advantage over either of those teams. The Jayhawks face the Aggies at 7 p.m. Saturday at Horejsi Family Athletics Center. Volleyball Notes The Big 12 Conference named seniors Jill Dorsey, Lindsey Morris, Ashley Bechard and Ashley Michaels to the academic all-conference teams, and sophomores Jamie Mathewson and Jana Correa joined them as first-time honorees. Correa, Mathewson, Dorsey and Morris made the first team after maintaining a 3.20 or better GPA during the last two semesters. Bechard and Michaels made the all-conference second team for holding a GPA of 3.00 or better. Thirty-seven Big 12 volleyball players constitute the first team, while the second team is comprised of 15 players. Kansas was one of five teams with six or more players honored. Edited by Neil Mulka KU soccer returns to nationals BY JACK WEINSTEIN jweinstein@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Last year's women's club soccer team finished second in the nation, losing to Arizona in a double overtime shootout in the national championship game. This year's team returns nine of its 18 players to compete for the national title this week in Austin, Texas. "We don't just go to have a good time," Kelsey McKeown, Barrington, Ill., junior said. "All our games and tournaments lead up to nationals. That's the big thing that we work for the whole year. Working toward the national tournament isn't the only part of women's club soccer. Susie Mason, the women's soccer club president at the University of Kansas, knows exactly how much effort goes into organizing a club sport at the collegiate level. The Omaha senior puts everything together, including holding meetings, collecting the $125 fee that pays for uniforms and travel expenses, organizing practices and fundraisers and even chalking the fields at the Shenk Sports Complex at 23rd and Iowa streets. "It's a lot of work to be a club sport. We didn't know this before we were officers," Mason said. "It's a lot of paperwork. You have to deal with the University constantly." The women's club soccer team doesn't have a coach, so the decision-making falls on Mason and the other team officers. The University matches the money the team makes from fundraisers. This fall the women sold T-shirts to raise the money they need to compete. Women's club soccer isn't for the casual soccer player. This team requires a commitment that includes three practices a week and travel to various tournaments during the season. Mason and Erin Leary, club vice president and Lenexa senior, try to discourage potential players that aren't willing to compete at the highest level and dedicate the necessary time to the sport. "Club soccer is open to whoever wants to play, but the people that don't fit in well with the team playing-level wise and commitment level tend to not play." Leary said. "Everyone that's on the team is pretty competitive because they've all played soccer throughout high school."

Sam Rabine, St. Louis Park, Minn., junior, played at Winona State in Minnesota before coming to Kansas and Casey Arnold, Telluride, Col., sophomore, was recruited to play at the University of Denver, but chose not to. "I think nearly everyone could play some level of college ball," Leary said. "Or could have, at least, when they were 18."

Kansan staff report St. Louis Rams coach says not interested in Dolphins ST. LOUIS — Scratch Mike Martz's name off the list of potential replacements for Dave Wannstadt in Miami. NFL Mosley is the fourth and final recruit of the early signing period, which ends today. Other recruits in the 2005 class are point guard Ivana Catic, forward Jennifer Orgas and for ward Sophronia Sallard. The St. Louis Rams coach yesterday said there was no truth to a Miami Herald story that said he would be interested in the Dolphins' coaching job if he was let go by the Rams. Despite an up-and-down season, St. Louis is 5-4 and tied for first in the NFC West. Citing sources close to Martz, Seattle's Mike Holmgrert and Denver's Mike Shanahan, the Herald article on Monday said the three would be interested in coaching the Dolphins next season if their current coaching situations did not work out. Martz said he was "shocked" to learn of the report. The Associated Press TALK TO US Tell us your news.

Stauffer said he was trying to enjoy the season's last few days of nice weather. MOODY: Walk-on CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B "It feels like that when you first get here, because you're not getting a monthly allowance and your parents are paying a little bit of money for you to come to school here." Moody said. "But you still get an equal opportunity just like everybody else." The forward did receive a scholarship the second semester of both his freshman and sophomore years, earning respect and playing time as well. After playing just 18 minutes his freshman season, Moody increased that to 102 minutes last year in 13 games played. "I realized the term 'walk-on' doesn't mean that you don't play," Moody said. status doesn't hinder starting ability Self said he had walk-ons start for his teams at Oral Roberts University and the University of Tulsa but could not think of an example of a No. 1-ranked team starting a non-scholarship player. Jackson said he was happy to see Moody get a shot at the starting role. "I tell him in practice, 'There's a starting spot for you, Moody. You just have to go out and get it,'" Jackson said. "He's been working at it every day." Moody has followed up on another promise — to help the team's grade point average. A pre-med student, Moody said his GPA was about 3.5, which he thought still helped the team out. "I sure hope it does," Moody said with a laugh. Jayhawk basketball notes Sophomore guard Jeremy Case shot some Monday but still has not returned to practice because of a groin injury. The 6-foot guard from McAlester, Okla., said there was about a 60 percent chance he would take a redshirt this season. "Coach and I really haven't sat down and talked about it," Case said. "But we probably will in the next week." - Edited by Janette Crawford CLUB: Girls strike balance of competitiveness, fun CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B While the girls acknowledged their competitiveness and desire to win, they said the reason they play club soccer is to have fun. "It's the perfect amount of soccer," Mason said. "It's not so structured and so intense that we don't have fun." Caitlin McKeown, Barrington, Ill., junior, agrees. "It's nice because it's still competitive enough where you're still having a good time because all of us grew up playing competitive soccer," she said. "You still get that competitive aspect but it's not as intense as every day, every second of every day." "We go out together, we have a good time." Mason said. "Spending that much time together, obviously we'll become close." The girls have built camaraderie among the players so the fun can continue off the field. The girls left for Texas Tuesday night and will play their first game today.

NEWS THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18,2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 3B Fieldhouse draws coach, players Vermont's Brennan wants to experience 'Rock Chalk' before he retires BY MIRANDA LENNING mlenning@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER He has coached college basketball for 24 years. He has won 291 games, back-to-back America East Championships and made two NCAA tournament appearances. And coaching college basketball isn't Tom Brennan's only job. He is also the host of a morning radio show in Burlington, Vt. It appears that the Vermont coach, who will retire at the end of the 2004-05 season, has done everything. But he said there was one more thing he wanted to do before he left the game. "I have always wanted to coach at Allen Fieldhouse," Brennan said. "I have coached at Kentucky and Carolina, but I want to see what the 'Rock Chalk' is all about." Brennan said his desire to coach at the fieldhouse was the main reason for tomorrow night's match-up with the Jayhawks. He called about scheduling the game at the end M. JOHNSTON BRENNAN of last season, when he knew this season would be his final year at Vermont. Coach Bill Self was a guest on Brennan's morning radio show yesterday. He said Brennan told him he was ecstatic about coaching in the fieldhouse. But Self said he joked with Brennan that his interest in the arena was not the only reason he wanted to come to Lawrence. "I know he's excited about playing at Allen, but he wouldn't There are high expectations for this Catamounts team in the America East Conference. Coming off back-to-back conference championships, the Catamounts are the favorite to win the AEC championship this season. be calling wanting to come here and play if he didn't think he had a good team that could represent Vermont well," Self said. Self and Brennan coached against each other when Self was at the University of Tulsa. Self said the veteran coach was full of energy and personality. "He has a great time doing what he is doing, and he has been doing it for a long time." Self said. "He is going out coaching Vermont's best team ever. That is kind of a neat ending." "The game is in slow motion to him," Self said of Coppennath. "He could be a first team all-leaguer in our league. He is really, really good." The team had two outstanding players, T.J. Sorrentine and Taylor Coppenrath, Coppenrath being the most exceptional, Self said. Coppenrath and Sorrentine combine for an average of 36 points per game. Brennan said that with those two on his side, he is in good position to have success in his final season. "Those two are good players, they are real key components to our team," Brennan said. Brennan also said his team was excited about coming to what he described as one of the ten best places in the country to play basketball. "But on Friday night at 8 p.m. we will be read," Brennan said. Tomorrow's game will begin at 7 p.m. CST. Edited by Marissa Stephenson This weekend: destination Columbia BY JENNIFER SHER jsher@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Editor's Note: Each Thursday Kansan sportswriter Jennifer Sher will profile a recreational hot spot. If you know of a fun or interesting place or activity, email jsher@kansan.com. Columbia, Mo., is a place that lavhawk fans love to hate. The heated rivalry between Kansas and Missouri has roots that trace back to pre-Civil War days. Recent meetings have been just as intense as the bleeding battles of the 1850s. Last fall, the Kansas football team beat the Tigers 35-14 in a stunning upset at Memorial Stadium, giving students an excuse to rush the field and tear down the goalposts. The football team travels to Missouri on Saturday for a rematch and the final game of regular season play. Tiger fans are ready to go, so Jayhawk fans need to pack their bags and head for the border. are ready need to head for Student Union Activities and the Kansas Alumni Association are sponsoring a spirit bus package, which includes a ticket and transportation to the game for $50 with a KUID. St. Louis graduate student Sarah Pfeifer went to the game in Columbia two years ago and is taking the spirit bus this year. "The rivalry is so great," Pfeifer said. "This will be my last Mizzou-KU game while I am a student and I felt I have to go to support the team to victory." This is one of the most anticipated games of the year for Tigers fans. Ryan Bosworth and Landon Althoff, students at Missouri, said the town is abuzz. "All week everyone has been talking and getting ready to watch the team redeem from last year's loss in Lawrence," Althoff said. "We are looking forward to it." The whole town takes on a different attitude the week Kansas comes to town. Bosworth said. "If you attend only one football game in a season it has to be the KU game, whether in Lawrence or in Columbia," he said. Though they don't want a bunch of Jayhawks in their town, Bosworth and Althoff had plenty of suggestions for preand post-game activities for visitors in Columbia. Downtown Columbia offers an array of bars, most notably Harpo's and Shiloh. The most popular place to eat is Shakespeare's Pizza, located just off of campus. And many fans forgo the crowded bar scene to tailgate with friends. Whatever goes on outside the game, the final score is what matters in games against Missouri, said Shawnee senior Jeremy Giles. "I think many freshman, particularly those from western Kansas, walk on to campus thinking K-State is our biggest rival," Giles said. "For myself, being from the Kansas City area, you grew up either a KU or a Mizzou fan. There was no middle ground. They don't like us, we don't like them." Former Missouri football coach Don Ferout once said: "The two games you must win in order for a coach to keep his job at MU are homecoming and KU." Attitudes like this will make for a heated game Saturday. Missouri lost its homecoming game to Oklahoma State last weekend. With hard work from our team and enough fan support on Saturday, Missouri coach Gary Pinkel could be out of a job. - Edited by Janette Crawford Looks like I picked the wrong day to quit drinking...

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2004 Sports Shortstop is team's 'Money' player Jeff Jacobsen/KUAC GOING DEEP Destiny Frankenstein, Broken Arrow, Okla., junior, earned the Oklahoma high school Gatorade player of the Year in 2011 and is the team's starting shortstop. 7 GOING DEEP SHANE KUCERA skucera@kansan.com Softball leader dominates field, leads by example Editor's Note: Athletes at the University of Kansas are more than just victories and statistics — they're real people with opinions on sports, life and love. Each Thursday, Kansan sportwriter Shane Kucera sits with a student athlete and discusses issues beyond the playing field. Kansas arguably has the most memorable name in all of college sports: Destiny Frankenstein. The softball team's junior shortstop from Broken Arrow, Okla., has a lot more than a unique name. Kansas recruited Frankenstein after she earned Oklahoma high school Gatorade Player of the Year in 2001 and was chosen as an All-American. She has continued her success at Kansas, starting at shortstop since her freshman year and proving to be a dominant player at the plate and on the bases. This week, Frankenstein talks about her life on and off the softball field. Q: What are some of the highlights of playing softball? A: One of the biggest highlights was getting a new field. That was a big deal to all of us because we were on the old school field and when we got that donation we got a really good field. Softball itself is a team sport with an individual concept. You really have to be a team player, but you also have to do your job when it's your turn Q: How did you get the nickname "Money?" A: Actually, that's from Ashley Goodrich and Jessica Moppin. Jessica plays second base next to me, so when we do something, she's like, 'That was money!' They both started calling me that, but the team makes fun of me because it's only those two. Q: Do you think of yourself as a team leader? A: I think this year's team is full of team leaders, but I try to lead by example. I wouldn't put myself out there if my team didn't depend on me. Q: How did your parents come up with the name Destiny? A: Well, my sister's name is Cherish, so I guess they couldn't leave me out in the cold with a name like Amanda or something. They had to come up with something, and it took them a really long time to get pregnant with me, so I think it was kind of a fate issue for them. Q: Do people ask you if you've read the book Frankenstein? They always ask me about Young Frankenstein, and I just say, 'Yeah it's a cool movie.' People always quote stuff at me, and I'm just like, 'I have no idea what you are talking about.' Q: What made you choose Kansas over other schools offering you a scholarship? A: Yeah, and all the movies A: I like the tradition here. When I was young I went to a basketball game and, you know, that's a really big deal. And, the family; this team got to know me as a person, and I know they weren't just depending on me to be just an athlete. They were really looking at who I was and how I fit in with the team, and I really liked that. As My bed. No, I like to eat, so we go out to eat a lot as a team. I don't really do anything because our weeks are so packed that on the weekends, I just hang around. I do love Jimmy John's. They even know my order. I'll walk in and they'll know exactly what I want. Q: Do you want to go on with softball after college? As I would love to, but it's really competitive, especially since the sport is growing. They're bringing back the women's professional league. I don't know how that's going to take, but I'll probably try. I would love to be in the Olympics, but I mean, who doesn't want to be? Every day I work towards bettering myself, and I can't see my life without softball — either if it's coaching or playing, I'd like to do it. Q: If our baseball team played a game of softball against your team, who would win? A: Well, if they could hit the ball they could win, because they could definitely rock it. Q: Have you ever heard of softball players using steroids? A: I haven't ever heard of it personally, but I would think if they want to do it, it would be there. Q: How is religion incorporated into your life? Q: What do you want to be doing in five years? A: When somebody says something to you, you always have in the forefront of your mind that you're a good person, and God is always watching — that's comforting, you know. A: I'd like to be out of school. But coaching. I love to coach whatever level that could be. I could see myself coaching or summer-ball coaching when I'm doing whatever job I decide to do. Q: When did you get your tongue ring? A: My senior year in high school. I took it out my freshman year and I hit really bad, and I'm really superstitious, so I had to go get it redone. My parent and my coaches were not very happy about it. I don't play without it, it's just there, comforting to know. Kucera is an Omaha, Neb., senior in journalism.

Gladman Gallery after a police chase early yesterday morning. Car hits building after police chase BY AUSTIN CASTER AND AMANDA O'TOLE editor@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITERS A 30-year-old KU student drove his car through the front entrance of the J' Gladman Gallery at the corner of 14th and Massachusetts streets after a car chase gone awry just before 1 a.m. yesterday, police said. Sarah Heath was driving home from a friend's house when she saw the crash. Police cars blocked off her street so she had to find another route home. "This is the best installation piece I've ever seen at the J. Gladman Gallery," Heath, Wichita senior and art major said. MEN'S BASKETBALL The crash was the result of a pursuit between the driver and Lawrence police, Sgt. Dan Ward said. He said patrons of The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., called police after they said they saw a man throw a rock through a window of the bar. The man then drove south on New Hampshire Street without using his headlights.

The Jayhawks, who are ranked No. 1 in the Associated Press poll, will open their season against the Vermont Catamounts, the back-to-back America East Conference champions. Kansas has won 32 straight home openers, but this year there is some added pressure. Kansas hasn't been the preseason No. 1 in the Associated Press poll since the 1956-57 season. Coach Bill Self said the ranking didn't mean much, but it was a credit to the veteran players. "Do we deserve it? No. I don't know who does. And the only reason that we're preseason ranked where we are is because we have experience returning that are really good players." Self said. "We don't deserve it, but I think that puts some pressure on us to try to play to it." The season started earlier than usual when the Jayhawks participated in a preseason exhibition tournament in Canada during Labor Day weekend. The Jayhawks went 4-0 on the tour. Since then, they have defeated Emporia States and Washburn in exhibition games, making their exhibition season record 6-0. The players said that after an unusually long exhibition season, they were more than ready to play in a regular season game. "The wins start to count now." Keith Langford, senior guard, said.

Steven Bartkoski/KANSAN Regents approve Rec Center expansion BY Ross Fitch fritch@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Students will soon be able to enjoy an expansion of the Student Fitness Recreation Center. The Kansas Board of Regents approved the plan yesterday. The addition to the center will include four basketball courts, three racquetball courts, a running track extension and a free weight area. The estimated cost of the addition is $6,132,750. The Kansas Development Finance Agency will issue revenue bonds that will provide the financing for the addition, according to the Regents agenda. The bonds will be secured with a pledge of the center fee and revenues from the operation of the facility. Steve Munch, student body president, said the addition would not increase center fees for students. Board members did not give a date for when they planned to approve or deny the proposal. The Regents also accepted a report for future examination that proposed increasing student housing fees at all six Regents schools. By proposing the increase, the universities were indicating the increases were necessary to offset expected operating cost increases and to provide for repair and renovation, the agenda stated. University officials also indicated the increases had been reviewed by the appropriate campus groups with student representation. The Regents also approved an update in English language competency in universities' and the Board's policy manuals. In the current policy, faculty members and graduate teaching assistants needed to score either a 50 on the Test of Spoken English or score a 240 on the Speaking Proficiency English Assessment Kit. The tests determine whether faculty members and GTAs whose first language is not English are able to speak English well enough to teach. SEE EXPANSION ON PAGE 7A Brain tumor research donations asked for BY AMANDA O'TOLE aotole@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Parents of the former University of Kansas student who died more than a week ago are asking for donations to be made to organizations benefiting brain tumor research. The family of Dusty Maimer is accepting donations through the American Cancer Society's Heartland Hope Lodge of Kansas City at www.cancer.org and the American Brain Tumor Association at http://hope.abta.org. Maimer, who attended the University from 2001 to 2002, died Nov.8 when a blood clot flowed to his heart. His death followed a two-year fight with brain tumors that began with a brain hemorrhage during finals week in Fall 2002. The hemorrhage left Maimer without the use of his left side. His mother, Cheri Maimer, said he battled back and regained the ability to walk, type on the computer and write. Even after his left the University, one of his goals was still to graduate college. Maimer said her son was excited about two advanced writing classes he took from Central Missouri State, but a second brain tumor this summer thwarted He was a sophomore living in Stephenson Scholarship Hall studying journalism and music when he left the University. MAIMER In the months leading to his death, at least three separate tumors were removed from his brain, two of which were the size of softballs. Maimer said her son had asked doctors to help him find a way to live after successive chemotherapy treatments failed. "Dusty looked at the doctors and said 'I'm not ready to die, I don't want to die.'" she said. After an intense radiation session that involved using catheters in his brain, Cheri and Mark Malimer, Dusty's father, thought they had beaten the cancer. his efforts. Maimer said it was then they decided to take a more aggressive approach with the tumors. Mainer said the blood clot was probably caused by the position her son was Maimer said her son had sustained his witty personality throughout his illness. For this she was amazed and thankful. His family described him as an outgoing, intelligent man who had a calming effect on children and babies. "They were just drawn to him," Maimer said. He would miss hugging people every day the most. Maimer said he told her. Mark Maimer enjoyed the philosophical discussions he and his son had.

He was scheduled to leave the hospital to go home two days earlier. He enjoyed watching his son build a life, and a big part of that was being at the University. He said one the craziest things his son told him about college was when his son and some hallmates Maimer said she and her family were taking things day by day. His parents live at Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri. They had asked donations go to the Hope Lodge, a free-lodging place for cancer patients and caretakers, because that is where Maimer and her son had stayed for a lot of his treatment and the American Brain Tumor Association so research and publicity can continue about brain cancer. Maimer was buried at Osawatomie Cemetery Nov. 12. Edited by Ashley Doyle --- Legal Services for Students "Dustin touched a number of lives.

Really 11.18.04 Jayplay 3 manual Training for the LONG haul By Megan Claus, Jayplay writer Photo illustration by Kit Leffler How to prepare for those 26.2 miles K JAYDAN Weakness and fatigue suddenly strike your body. The bursting energy level you started with has now plummeted. You're feeling lightheaded and sore. Your legs, if you can even feel them, are burning and your muscles begin to tighten. You feel that continuing at your normal pace is near impossible. You've hit your wall, the common point in a marathon when runners simply run out of fuel. For Joe Fox, Kansas City, Mo. junior, the wall usually strikes around the 22nd mile. Unlike most runners, who usually have an extensive running background, Fox trained for only 20 weeks before running his first marathon, the Chicago Marathon. Since that first race, he has run the Lewis and Clark Marathon in St. Charles, Mo., and the Chicago Marathon again this year. "You finish and feel totally drained. But after an hour, you're up talking to people about when you're running the next one," Fox says. It becomes such a part of your life that most people don't run just one." If you've ever thought about running a marathon, you're not alone. In 2003, The LaSalle Bank Chicago Marathon, one of the top U.S. marathons, experienced a steady increase in the number of participants. It recorded 32,364 finishers, compared to 24,604 in 1999, a 24 percent increase, according to the USA Track and Field Roach Running Information Center. This number reflects only those who finished. More than 38,000 people actually entered the race. With enough training and preparation, almost anyone can run a marathon. Unless a doctor declares you unfit to run, it's up to you to do the rest. Many runners claim that 90 percent of it is mental. "You can prepare all you want, but if you don't You can do it think you can do it, you probably won't," says Rusty Collins general manager and training coach at Metro Walk and Run, 7449 Broadway, Kansas City, Mo. Program your body Collins recommends that beginners train for at least six months before attempting their first marathon. That is the equivalent of about a 24-week program. Most programs integrate one long run a week and shorter runs or light workouts in between. Choose a program that you can commit to. Check out marathontraining.com for free programs. Don't hurt yourself The number one way to avoid injury is to wear the right shoes for your feet. Metro Walk and Run will videotape your feet while running on a treadmill to determine the best shoe for you. Francis Sporting Goods, 721 Massachusetts St., can special order shoes for you if they don't have what you're looking for. It's common for a beginner to experience small injuries such as shin splints or plantar fasciitis. These muscle strains are caused by increased exercise and lack of proper arch support. Stretching before and after a run will decrease your chances of injury. Wearing a shoe with extra cushioning or added arch support can help too. Pay attention to your sore muscles. Icing and massaging are important. Before running, massage your legs with ice Hot or Biofreeze. These creams warm the muscles and stimulate blood flow so you aren't running on cold muscles.

NEW IMAGE Call Today! 841-5255 *Limited time Only* - Eat healthy A student's lifestyle doesn't always cater to the ideal nutritional standard for marathon runners. Bryan Cisler, Leawood freshman, doesn't worry about it. Cisler says he doesn't go overboard on fatty foods. Until a couple weeks before running his first marathon this spring, he'll eat whatever he wants. Collins says a well-balanced diet is the way to go. The key thing is to build up your immune system. You can do this by getting plenty of Vitamins C and B. He says that 70 percent of marathoners end up with a cold within two weeks after the race because their immune system is down. Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables and foods rich in carbohydrates. Motivation is key Carbs are essential for energy and muscle repair. Collins warns that you will hit a wall if you don't have enough. This is where you start to experience horrible muscle cramps and breakdown. Many runners find that training with a partner or group keeps them going. Jayme Aschemeyer, Aurora, Colo., senior, founded the KU Marathon Trainers Club last spring. Together, the group train and share techniques. Aschemeyer has run shorter races, but has yet to run her first marathon. She put the club together because she wanted some additional motivation to actually go for it. Choose a marathon location, register and aim for it. You are more likely to endure the entire length of your training if you choose a destination away from home. Collins says you should avoid smaller marathons where you can get out in a gap with no one in front or behind because you'll be likely to lose motivation. The Chicago Marathon is good for beginners because it's one of the largest in number, meaning there are plenty of people to pull you along. manual Marathon Trainers Get advice from other runners. Marathon Trainers is a new campus club of novice, intermediate and advanced runners. They meet monthly to share tips, techniques and support each other on the road to the big run. The next Marathon Trainers meeting is November 29 at 8:30 p.m. in the Kansas Union. For more information, contact Jayme Aschemeyer, jayMEhawk@aol.com. Damage control When unimpressing the family... You're meeting your significant other's parents during Thanksgiving break, and you have a feeling their first impression of you is less than ideal. If your personalities just aren't clicking, don't overcompensate by acting differently. Impression management is the art of deception, says Dennis Karpowitz, associate professor of clinical psychology, which is the last thing any relationship needs. If you're in a serious relationship, you will probably be spending more time with the family, and they will eventually see through the act. So be yourself — maybe just a more polite version who isn't waiting to grope their offspring. —Misty Huber 5 minute fix Dead Battery A dead battery can be aggravating, especially when all you need are some jumper cables and there are none are to be bad. But if you have a stick shift vehicle, there's another solution. Stay in the driver's seat and get one or more people to push the car. Put the key in the "on" position. Press down the clutch. Then shift the car into first gear. Take off the emergency or hand brake. When the car gains momentum, release the clutch and give it some gas. This works best on a hill. That should start the car, but get the car to a mechanic ASAP. Source: ehow.com Stephanie Lovett COMING SOON AT BOTTLENECK 737 NEW HAMPSHIRE / LAWRENCE, KS THUR.

Graduation Gear for all of your grad needs!! pite By Jennifer Voldness, Jayplay writer NO-bird buffet: An alternative Thanksgiving feast even the Pilgrims would devour Illustration by Scott Drummond Ah, Thanksgiving! The holiday, devoted entirely to gorging, is filled with piping-hot sweet potatoes, lip-smacking cranberry sauce, scrumptious pumpkin pie and tasty turkey galore. We all look forward to the traditional home-cooked meal with the family. But before you get to your heaps of mashed potatoes and gravy, how about creating a Thanksgiving meal with a twist to share with friends? Here are some yummy ideas for making a holiday feast that even your mommy will love. Break for turkey According to the 2002 U.S. Census, Americans consume 45 million turkeys on Thanksgiving Day. Break the mold and try a less common main dish such as pork loin with wild rice and apple stuffing. This mouth-watering platter will look just as pretty as a glistening turkey in the center of your table. It's not hard to bake, and you can use the recipe in a few months when you're trying to impress that special someone with your baking know-how. Plus, you're sure to have leftovers that will be easily swappable for drumsticks from your turkey-bored friends. Spin on spuds Put a spin on mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes and make mashed sweet potatoes. Dessert pie for crumble This is sure to be a hit with your dinner guests if they are biased toward a traditional Thanksgiving feast. And just in case you feel like you may be in over your head with dinner-preparation stress, this dish is microwavable and only takes about 20 minutes to make. For a final treat, here's an easy idea that will look like it took hours to prepare. It's called the caramelized pumpkin and pear crumble. Sounds pretty complicated, right? Not so. It only takes about 10 minutes to prepare and looks great in little, round bowls topped with whipped cream and cinnamon. Party fowl No matter how much your guests love your unique concoctions, Thanksgiving dinner is never truly complete without a turkey. To incorporate everyone's favorite fowl into the mix, stir up a Turkey Trot. This festive drink is made with cranberry juice, 7UP, and Wild Turkey bourbon whiskey. It can also be served as a shot or mixed in a large bowl and served as a punch. Salut! 6 Jayplay 11.18.04 THANKSGIVING RECEIPES bite Porkloin with wild rice and apple stuffing Serves 4 to 6 Ingredients One recipe wild rice and apple stuffing, cooled One 2-1/2 to 3-pound boneless pork loin Salt and pepper to taste 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus a little more 1 cup tawny port wine 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 2 teaspoons honey 1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage leaves 1 tablespoon butter Preheat oven to 375° F.

The holiday, devoted entirely to gorging, is filled with piping-hot sweet potatoes, lip-smacking cranberry sauce, scrumptious pumpkin pie and tasty turkey galore. We all look forward to the traditional home-cooked meal with the family. But before you get to your heaps of mashed potatoes and gravy, how about creating a Thanksgiving meal with a twist to share with friends? Here are some yummy ideas for making a holiday feast that even your mommy will love. Break for turkey According to the 2002 U.S. Census, Americans consume 45 million turkeys on Thanksgiving Day. Break the mold and try a less common main dish such as pork loin with wild rice and apple stuffing. This mouth-watering platter will look just as pretty as a glistening turkey in the center of your table. It's not hard to bake, and you can use the recipe in a few months when you're trying to impress that special someone with your baking know-how. Plus, you're sure to have leftovers that will be easily swappable for drumsticks from your turkey-bored friends. Put a spin on mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes and make mashed sweet potatoes. Spin on spuds This is sure to be a hit with your dinner guests if they are biased toward a traditional Thanksgiving feast. And just in case you feel like you may be in over your head with dinner-preparation stress, this dish is microwavable and only takes about 20 minutes to make. Dessert pie for crumble For a final treat, here's an easy idea that will look like it took hours to prepare. It's called the caramelized pumpkin and pear crumble. Sounds pretty complicated, right? Not so. It only takes about 10 minutes to prepare and looks great in little, round bowls topped with whipped cream and cinnamon. Party fowl No matter how much your guests love your unique concoctions, Thanksgiving dinner is never truly complete without a turkey. To incorporate everyone's favorite fowl into the mix, stir up a Turkey Trot. This festive drink is made with cranberry juice, 7UP, and Wild Turkey bourbon whiskey. It can also be served as a shot or mixed in a large bowl and served as a punch.

He's tall, trim, stylish and has gorgeous hazel eyes that people would kill for. With a guy this good looking, I expect women to check him out when we head out for a night on the town. The only problem is he knows he's good looking. He checks girls out just as frequently as they check him out. It tends to get annoyed each time I see his head do a 180-degree turn to look at the beautiful girl that just walked by. So the saying goes: guys will be guys. This is something women are just supposed to expect when entering into a relationship. Men are flirts. They look at women and get excited by those three-second passing glances. So what happens when a guy is in a relationship and his girlfriend doesn't want to accept this? What happens when guys check out that gorgeous blonde in the miniskirt as she passes through the room, and when does "just looking" go too far? All of these questions are typical for a woman or a man who are in a relationship with a flirt. "It's important for couples to talk about these things from the get go," says Nomi Redding, a clinical social worker. "It's also important for one to enter into a relationship knowing if this person has a wandering eye or not. I work with couples who deal with this problem later in their relation- ship, so it wasn't something they had the choice of accepting in the beginning." Redding also says that if a couple is comfortable in the relationship this shouldn't even be an issue. But, if both are comfortable but one is starting to get upset, there may be other underlying issues. He or she may not be getting enough attention from his or her partner, Redding says. Getting enough attention is essential to a relationship. Kelsey Butler, Des Moines, Iowa senior, knows this all too well. She was in a long distance relationship with her boyfriend and visited him whenever she could. They would go out when she got there in hopes of having fun, but her boyfriend's flirtations with other girls quickly became a problem. Butler says their relationship came to an end after realizing that his wandering eye wasn't letting her to feel the way a girl should feel in a relationship; like No. 1. "I had more respect for myself than to be with a guy who would rather look at other girls than look at me," Butler says. "I felt disrespected, and he didn't take my feelings into consideration. I know that guys will look, but when he blatantly watches a girl walk all the way across the room, that is the breaking point." Jason Ward, Lawrence resident, says he has a beautiful girlfriend and he knows that it's a natural instinct for men to look at her as she enters a room. He also says that there is nothing wrong with looking. But to Ward, stepping over the bounds is approaching his girlfriend right in front of him. Ward says he feels disrespected at this point, and he and that person who was "just checking her out" are going to have problems. For some, the feeling of taking glances too far depends on the atmosphere that their significant other is in. If I'm out on a date with my boyfriend and he is making glances at our waitress, that is when I become upset," says Elisia Bourland, Lawrence resident. "It's all about where we are and how focused I expect him to be on me. At a bar, both of us look around and check out the goods. There is nothing wrong with that." There are many different factors that need to be considered when it comes to passing glances. Is your loved one getting enough one-on-one attention from you. Are you in a place where your drooling is not going to draw attention or cause a scene? Redding says it is natural instinct to look, but people should ask themselves if they are taking their natural instincts too far and hurting the ones that they love.

If you're a guy hearing this from your girlfriend, the best bet is to tread carefully. How her friends respond to you could be the difference in whether your relationship succeeds or fails. "Meeting the friends is kind of like meeting the parents," Valerie Tarbutton, Overland Park sophomore says. She says girls often rely on friends a lot in relationship matters, so they place great importance on their friends accepting their significant other. Tarbutton hasn't had any problems with her current boyfriend, Olathe junior Jason Bentley, but she recalls a previous boyfriend her friends gave a bad review to. "That really kind of shortened our relationship severely," she says. With guys, it's not typically as much of an issue. Bentley says guys may care a little about what their friends think of a new girl, but it's not usually a make-or-break situation. 8 — Joe Bant Jayplay 11.18.04 notice thoughts like sheen skin... Art with an edge The Olive Gallery is pushing the limits of artwork in Lawrence By Erik Johnson, Jayplay writer In early 2002, two University of Kansas art and design students had the idea that Lawrence needed a new place to showcase the emerging local artists whose edgier, unconventional work may not get the wall space it deserves in other galleries. Jill Kleinhans and Bailey Kivett, both artists themselves, saw an emerging local scene without a place near Massachusetts Street to show work. "We had this wild hair THE OLIVE GALLERY AND ART SUPPLY, 15 E. EIGHT ST., IS OPEN 10 A.M. TO 11 P.M. EVERY DAY. would be, but he stipulated that he would have to be left out of the day-to-day operations because of his busy schedule in a town more than two hours away. up our butts," Kleinhans says, "that this would be a really cool thing to do and that there was a need for it." Already working two extra jobs each to support themselves while in school at the University, the girls needed someone willing to invest in what they believed to be a sure bet project. So Kivett approached Gene Marsh, a Halstead Emergency Room doctor and painter, with the idea to open a gallery. Marsh, who received his Master of Fine Arts from Wichita State University and has painted in New Mexico and Kansas for years, says he was aware of Lawrence's arts nature and was delighted with Kivett's proposal. Almost immediately, he agreed to be what the girls have come to call their "angel investor." Marsh said he would fund the project and understood what a risk it The women found a prime location on Eighth Street between Mass and New Hampshire, and by April 2003, they opened the doors to The Olive Gallery and Art Supply. The Olive is decidedly quaint in size: a single room packed with various supplies on one side and a wall for showcasing monthly galleries on the other. The shared space between a supply store and a gallery, Kivett says, makes the place a little less intimidating. It was designed by the girls to be ultra-comfortable: walls are painted an inviting light lime and a few wooded cabinets are painted the store's namesake olive. "We tossed around a lot of colors for the name of the place," Kivett says, wearing an olive-colored shirt as she settles into an olive-colored couch. "Olive just seemed to work the best." With an atmosphere set to their liking, Kleinhans and Kivett set out to push the limits of Lawrence art. Almost immediately, local artists were lining up to have their fresher, edgier work shown in the hip new gallery. October's feature gallery was local artist Julie Black's "Dead Pets For Sale," a presentation of cotton-stuffed fabric road kill: a rabbit complete with tire marks and entrails spilling beyond the frame or a raccoon with its long-dead eyes bugging out of its furry sockets. Any one of them would be adorable to an unsuspecting 4-year-old, unaware of the concept of death by automobile, and morbid but very cute to a passing admirer. This month's feature gallery, a collection of work titled, "Thoughts Like Shed Skin," by locals Erica Shamrock and Jay Gordon, opened on Nov. 6. Shamrock says The Olive was a good fit for her work because she didn't know of any other gallery in Lawrence that could showcase the kind of things she does. Her title piece, "Like shed skin," is a sculpture of mixed media made with paper oxygen masks and dried apricot that, like a few of her other pieces, looks like a human heart. "They go for the non-commercial stuff with a local edge," she says, "which is good for me. It's stuff that's just out there, that's not selling for like $10,000 to be put in an office somewhere." Each monthly gallery also includes a Kids Corner, where local youngins can get their names out. This month's Kids Corner artist is Sam Foster, a 15-year-old Southwest Junior High student. He was reluctant to put a price on his work at first, he says, but is selling his abstract paintings of objects from feet to flowers for $20 to$ 60. The Olive must be catching on, as other artists outside Lawrence have begun to approach Kleinihans and Kivett to show their work. Their monthly galleries are booked, Kivett says, until at least March 2005, and more famous faces such as "Fudge Factory" comic creator Travis Millard and Massachusetts Street muralist Dave Lowenstein will showcase their work in upcoming months. Professor of the arts Maria Velasco says The Olive has remained successful in its short running because its owners have been fantastic in communicating with the wants and needs of instructors, students and local artists. And because they haven't been strictly interested in a Ongoing and upcoming galleries "Thoughts Like Shed Skin," Erica Shamrock and Jay Gordon's show of decay and entropy, will run through Nov. 23. The Holiday Show will begin Nov. 24. Local artists will be selling their art at more than affordable prices. Great gift ideas for the fast-approaching holiday season. profit, she says, Kleinhans and Kivett have been able to take more serious risks in whom they accept and what they show. "We haven't made any money," Kleinins says. "We both still have two extra jobs. But I love it, and I'll continue to do it until I don't love it anymore." Kivett echoes that statement; "It's been great. If people didn't appreciate it, I wouldn't keep doing it. But people seem to really appreciate it, so we'll keep doing what we're doing." 11. 18.04 Jayplay 9 The history of KU is indeed longer than that of the JAYHAWKER, but not by much. The oldest continuously published yearbook west of the Mississippi River, it has seen over a century of students, teams, and instructors; buildings built and burned; revolutions begun and ended; wars fought and won; titles grasped and lost. She's a grand ole dame, but this year she needed help. The JAYHAWKER was in danger of going under, its legacy left behind, victim of a new paradigm that has seemingly no role for the traditional yearbook. Which explains this. A new name, a new look, a new philosophy for how to best capture a year at KU. What you find on the pages that follow will be unique, special, revolutionary, maybe even dangerous, but never repetitive. The book you're holding is a meandering path through the school year that was. It's as unstructured as a night on Mass St., as illuminating as the lights on the Campanile, and as fundamentally not a yearbook as you can get.

It turns out she works there and had to clean up my puke. Is it lame for my friend to ask her out? I feel like such a jerk. Mark, junior Jessi: Aww, you mean your loyal friend was babysitting your drunken ass when you proceeded to vomit all over his wooing session? Damn, if that doesn't make it into the Guinness book for most hilarious hook-up stories, I don't know what will. Hopefully she wasn't too grossed out by the whole fiasco. After all, she does work at a bar. If asking her out is lame compared to puking all over her, she has her priorities mixed up. I say go for it. Chris: So you puked, and now he doesn't want to call her? Sounds like your friend was just looking like an excuse. If he had puked, then it'd be another story, but if he likes her, he should call her. Side Note: I also work at Quinton's and I don't appreciate you puking in my bar. Let's fight. When do I know when my girlfriend and I can go beyond making out? Arthur, sophomore Jessi: This depends on a number of things, most important: mutual comfort levels. Talk and let her know you care deeply for her and love making out with her. Ask her what she thinks about moving to second, or even third base, and respect her decisions. Chris: When your parents say it's OK! Duh! What the eff are you talking about? How about asking your girlfriend? When you do ask her, if she says, "What do you mean go beyond making out?" just punch yourself in the nuts. I think my boyfriend may be falling in love with me too quickly. Sometimes I feel like I'm a commitment-phobe, but other times, I feel pressured by his adoration. What do I do? Jill, junior Jessi: It's great you recognize this is a shared problem. Because you've admitted this may have something to do with your fear of commitment, and that he works overtime in the love department, I say this discrepancy is keeping you two from experiencing real intimacy. Tell your Casanova he's crossing your commitment line, and air your personal concerns with his quick love. By doing this, you'll create the necessary understanding for that love stuff to take place eventually. Chris: Try being more conceited. You shouldn't assume that because he's all over you that he's falling in love with you. He may just like getting laid and is willing to do what it takes to keep you around.

A voice in his ear gives a cue and he plays a short guitar riff, then stops abruptly. The room returns to silence and a voice echoes in his headset: "One more time, please." On the other side of the wall, two other members of Luo's band sit in the control room. The Kansas City band, who used to be called Full Feature and will debate a new name for most of the day, is recording Luo's rhythm guitar tracks for its new nine-song album. To keep background noise to a minimum, only one person can be in studio room A at a time, and right now it's Luo's turn. Meanwhile, there's nothing but downtime for everyone else. Eddie Schubert and Steffen Davenport, singer and guitarist for the nameless band, are settled in to black leather couches. The other two members of the band will show up shortly. The small table in front of them is littered with various items: two flavors of pumpkin seeds they roasted the night before, a Ziploc bag full of candy, Schubert's PowerBook, cell phones and random garbage that has built up during the day. They are both drinking out of coffee mugs. "The nice thing about this place is that they serve gourmet coffee," Schubert says. After about five minutes, it's clear that coffee will prove to be the lifeblood of this entire operation. 12 "The basement is super-creepy." The band is recording its album at Jayplay 11.18.04 Blacklodge Recording, a studio in Eudora. Eudora, as many of us know, is a pretty small place. Its downtown district, made up of one main road, is cute and quaint, and many of the buildings are reminiscent of antique dollhouses. This is hardly the place you'd expect a bunch of hip kids in bands to want to hang out. And it's hardly the place you'd expect to find Blacklodge Recording, where bands come from as far away as Israel to work with local producer Ed Rose and his crew. When larrive at Blacklodge, studio manager Ron Hayes gives me the grand tour. The studio on Main Street is situated in a building that has been around for more than 120 years. Although it was refurbished in 2002, the place still has the eerie charm of a haunted house. The front door opens to a brick hallway and the first door on the right leads to the control room, which is where recording bands spend most of their time. The main studio is straight ahead, and the wood floors and tall ceilings amplify our footsteps. There are two sound-proofed isolation booths to the left - where vocals Record studio vocab EP: Stands for "extended play," meaning it's longer than a single, but not quite a full album. Most EPs have four or five tracks on them. only a day – finishing four tracks in about eight hours. I quickly learn that that's no longer the case. In eight years, new technology developed to make producing easier has actually done quite the opposite. Now, a band is lucky to complete two drum tracks in an eight-hour day. and guitars are usually recorded, Hayes says - and a door that leads to the back lounge of the studio. Behind it, there's a large room that looks like it used to be a foyer. Inside I find an 8-foot-tall walk-in safe (used when the building was once a hotel), a wide staircase with thick, white, banisters, and antiqued walls that have been unearthed from layers of paint and wallpaper. Since this is a "lodge," there are angry-looking stuffed deer randomly mounted on the walls. Hayes tells me the building had a past life as a mortuary, which explains the door in the floor that leads to the basement. The basement, he says, is where they used to burn the bodies. Creepy. LP. Stands for "long play," this is a full-length album because it plays longer than an EP. Scratch tracks: Bands record rough vocal and guitar tracks before real recording begins to give each musician something to play along with. The process of recording typically goes like this: First, the band records some scratch tracks for the drummer to play along to. Once the drums are done, guitars follow and vocals are recorded last, allowing the album to be mixed and completed. Rose attributes the slower process to bands that expect a producer to "fix" their entire album. In 1996, when Rose was the chief engineer at Red House Recording, he produced The Get Up Kids' second EP, and he and the group became fast friends. The studio became Blacklodge when they purchased and renovated it in December 2002. Liner notes. The booklet you find with an album that usually contains art, lyrics, photos, and credits to producers, etc. "Back in the day, a band with no money had to have their shit together in the stu- He takes me outside and up a steep metal staircase to the second floor. Above the studio, there's a two-bedroom apartment where touring bands that use the studio can stay for $100 a night. It's clean and has the same old, creaky wood-floor charm as the rest of the house. The studio is co-owned by local band The Get Up Kids and producer Ed Rose. Rose has worked with successful local bands like The New Amsterdam and The Casket Lottery. Those bands chose Blacklodge over more than 2,000 other studios nationwide to work with him. Rose is so popular, in fact, that bands must pay an extra $100 a day for the opportunity to put his name in their liner notes. When Rose and the band recorded the EP back in '96, the entire process lasted dio. They had to show up and play," Rose says. Now he says bands can come in and have the computer get their shit together for them. A shame, indeed, but there's a catch: most of those bands have no live show and make complete fools of themselves on stage. super-anal about this part." "I'm just being Back in the control room, where I'll spend the rest of the day, I sink into a leather couch. Across the room, the band's producer, Robert Rebeck, sits behind a giant computer screen, listening to Luo track the introduction to the band's song. He is dwarfed by the control board, speakers and electronic equipment that take up half the room in front of him. The control board is complicated. There are enough buttons, blinking lights and moving parts to keep an antsy toddler satisfied for hours. Rebeck mans the computer, typing, clicking and highlighting the purple and yellow sound waves on the huge computer screen. He's such a whiz at Macintosh Pro Tools, a digital audio production program, that he says he is developing a repetitive stress injury in his right wrist from the constant clicking. After each take, he talks to Luo through a microphone. A glass window in front of him allows a view of the studio and Luo able to respond through a speaker in the control room. best tracks for each instrument and then mix the album accordingly. As Luo plays, Rebeck repeats the line that will become his catchphrase of the day: "Let's do that again." Schubert jokingly informs me that they've labeled Rebeck the "sourd Nazi" because he's anal and is always making them repeat themselves. Rebeck swivels in his chair to laugh, then turns back to his computer screen. "Let's play that just one more time," he says to Luo after the next take. Forty-five minutes later, this 20-second intro track is finally done. The same riff Luo is working on plays over and over in the background each time he records it, as he tries to get the timing and intonation perfect. Rebeck's job as producer is to coach the guys to get the This is the guys' seventh day in the studio, and they have MISSING LOVE completed all the drums and final vocals for two songs and the guitars for six. The band optimistically booked nine days at Blacklodge, paying $500 a day to rent the studio and Rebeck's services. It was the band's hope to be done recording nine songs in that span but now figure it will take 11. The process is tedious, with a lot of repetition and a lot of Rebeck saying, "1,2,3,4" to cue the boys to begin. Schubert says it's pretty normal to spend three to four hours on one song for each instrument, and guesses the band will be in the studio today until midnight or 2 a.m. The session began at 11 this morning. "We'll be super, super happy to get the guitar done in one day," he says. "What separates the men from the boys is getting in the van." 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF UNDERHILL The band gets a lot of practice while in the studio, but the guys agree that the best way to practice is to play a lot of shows. Back when they were Full Feature, they constantly toured for three and a half years, building up a solid local fan base and driving them to write more songs. A little bit of band drama and a subsequent year-long break halted that plan, and now the guys are in their mid-20s and Schubert Eddie Schubert blow off steam in a moment of mock-frustration with Blacklodge producer Robert Rebeck while his band looks on. After long periods in the studio, the band members say they begin to lose their minds. Kansas. says they've all got other things going on. In fact, the goal of this record is to have fun together, to file the last year of their lives away and not to go on tour again. It's too much of a serious commitment and took a toll on the band before, when they were all students at the University of "I was cheating on school with the band," Davenport says. Rose says this idea of serious commitment to a band is the reason why many of them don't succeed. He says bands can't go into the recording process thinking they're going to be huge in six months. "The chances are better of being hit by lightning than being a fucking rock star," he says. "If you want this to be a day job, treat it as one. Work eight hours a day." Hard work does, in fact, pay off. Case in point: Rob Pope, who has played bass in The Get Up Kids for 10 years, points out that his band was able to stick together because it was completely committed. The Get Up Kids' gradual ascent to popularity came from the members' mutual desire to work their asses off for it. He says they knew from the start that they wanted to get out of the local scene, so they played shows wherever they possibly could outside of Kansas City or Lawrence. In fact, the band's first show was in St. Louis. The guys began touring and playing in basements, slowly working their way up to smaller clubs. Now, they pack larger concert halls and tour with the likes of Weezer and Green Day. As for going straight to playing stadiums, Pope says people "are delusional to think that that actually occurs." It takes work to get in a van and go, and he says it takes more than any old schmuck with a road map to do it. A lot of bands don't realize that going on tour for six or eight weeks means ditching a girlfriend, leaving a job or otherwise leaving behind a lifestyle that is comfortable and normal. Going on tour makes bands realize they're in it for the long haul. It's like a test—surviving a tour is cementing your faith and passion for your band. And that's what it ultimately takes: passion. Back in the studio, Schubert tells me that performing live is his own passion because he loves all of the attention it gives him. Boyd Brasel, the drummer who recently arrived, and Davenport agree going on tour and performing in front of strangers is definitely the most fun part of being in a band. Schubert likens it to an addictive drug. "It's the attention drug. Some of us just require a larger dose than others," he says. Kind of like coffee. "Yo, take five." Three hours after he began recording, Marshall Luo's guitar part for the entire song is done. The band, which is finally a full fivesome since Craig Luo, the bassist, has just arrived, comes together in the control room and listens intently to the completed version. Their words turn to "da da" and "du du" while emphasizing certain parts of the song they especially like. "Sounds good," Schubert says. The ever-picky Rebeck shoots back, "It's all right," and jokes to Marshall Luo that they're replacing him with another guitarist. "Yeah, we found a better one in Tonganoxie," Davenport says. Now that they're all here, the band discusses what it'll be calling itself for this CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE 11.18.04 Jayplay 13 KJHK WAXCLASH KJHK'S ANNUAL MIXING AND SCRATCHING DJ BATTLE FEATURING AREA MCs.

Schubert has a longlist ofpossible suggestions, including a gem in "Jesusaurus Rex," for which Rebeck comes up with the perfect album cover: a vicious T-Rex wearing a crown of thorns. Conversation soon wanders. The hours of downtime and the lack of natural light in the cavelike control room plus Blacklodge's gourmet coffee (they're on their third pot) has made everyone a little silly. Schubert constantly speaks in foreign tongues and squeaky cartoon voices, Rebeck does an Axl Rose impression every chance he gets, and Brasel comes up with the idea to have a writhing contest on the floor, for which I am to be the judge. Schubert says that after eight hours in the studio, everything begins to sound the same and everyone just loses their minds. "These guys are crazy. After a few hours, it's like a frat house in here." Rebeck says. And he mentions they've actually toned it down a bit today, for my sake. Amazing. After the break, it's Davenport's turn in the hot seat, recording his lead guitar parts for the song. As Reebek tweaks the controls to tune his amp and get the right intonation on the track, the rest of the band gets serious for a moment and decides o Paint it Black Blacklock main studio room: $500/day (10-hour maximum); extra$ 100 if you want to work with Ed Rose Hourly Rate: $60 We get into a conversation about the mainstream music industry, which is dominated by "rock" artists like Ashlee Simpson. The band has strong opinions on the subject and says Simpson's life reflects the disintegrating status of mainstream music as a whole. Schubert says nowadays, music isn't about talent or "If you're a hot female and you're 17, that what's in." Got an album to record? Here's the cost of recording at Blackledge: Two hours after Davenport begins recording, and four hours after I arrive, the guitars for the song are done. As Rebeck mixes the final guitar parts, he sums up what we've all been thinking for quite some time now: "I'm getting sick of this fucking song." The band decides to move on to a new one, and Marshall goes back through the double doors to tune up and start again.

It's a reference to the movie "Fletch" and the Lord of the Rings books, and they like it because it's nondescript. After what seemed like a fuss, the band is suddenly cooperative. In fact, the entire day, while they were a little crazy sometimes, there has been nothing but cooperation and respect among the guys. They get along like best friends, and Rebeck fits right in with their antics and their serious musician sides. That, he says, is what makes a band successful. craft; instead it's about creating and selling an image. He says it's a shame that the entire business is based on marketing instead of raw talent. "You can take someone with no talent, put millions of dollars into her just to get a couple million back," he says. Then, you've made your profit and it's time for the next big thing to come along. Tim Brennan, a musician in Cincinnati who runs a Web site called Readyfireaim.com to help aspiring musicians, says the first thing any band should do is Later, I get into the same conversation with Rose and Pope, and they say they agree. It seems the mainstream music industry is frustrating to bands (read: real musicians) who spend years practicing and perfecting a craft, only to lose out to a pre-fabricated record with hired musicians. Rose says it's easy to put a puppet like Simpson on stage and have her lip synch her entire career because the artistry of music has been lost to big-business deals by money-hungry major labels. figure out why they're in it. He says there are several kinds of musicians: hobbyists, egoists, artists and pros. You can find success by being any of these but should be honest with what category you're in before you ever begin. Rose says the motivation for starting a band should not be "what's gonna get me a slot on *Cribs.*" Bands who take the path of least resistance to make an easy buck are insincere, and it shows in the music. He says wanting to make money is perfectly OK, but "don't be a money-hungry bastard pretending to be real." The guys of Underhill don't have to pretend. They say they're at a point in their lives where they're just having fun with the music, and want to get this record done for no one but themselves. It's five best friends having a good time, and that's why they're here. No fake sincerity, no lip-synching, no desire to make millions, just a lot of love for the music. And a whole lot of coffee. Six hours after I get to the studio, the boys go outside to take a hacky sack break and I decide it's time to get out of Eudora. Outside, my eyes sting from the sunlight. I mention how bright it is. Everyone laughs because it's a cloudy, dreary day and there is no sunlight. That control-room cave is dangerous. I say goodbye and realize the band will be here for another eight hours, repeating this same routine and subsequently going more I very much doubt Ashlee Simpson has that kind of dedication.

"Take On Me" by A-Ha Kyle Garrison Kansas City, KS sophomore CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE People usually don't remember one-hit wonders, but they remember their songs. Kevin Smith, a disc jockey at KBZI in Pittsburg, sees this all the time. Smith says one time he asked a friend if he liked the band Deep Blue Something, best-known for its song "Breakfast at Tiffany's," and his friend seemed confused. Smith then told him about the band's hit song, and his friend immediately expressed his love for it. Every weekday at noon Smith hosts an all-request lunch hour at KBZI. Smith says the station wasn't getting many requests on 耳机 The one-hit wonder is proof that all you need is one popular song on the radio to be remembered – at least for 15 minutes. From VH1 to Rolling Stone to the average music fan, everyone seems to be fascinated with one-hit wonders. "When are you gonna play 'That Thing You Do'?" That line is from That Thing You Do, a film that accurately displays the mania of one-hit-wonder stardom. The film, directed by Tom Hanks tells the story of The Wonders, an ordinary band that hit it big in the '60s with a ridiculously catchy hit song. "Ice Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice Joe McGuire Kansas City, Mo senior It's no wonder that one-hit wonders are an important part of pop culture "I Saw the Sign" by Ace of Base Amber Hall Wichita junior By Matt Beat, Jayplaywriter It's a phenomenon that has been occurring since the '50s. Everyone knows what it is – at least they think they do – yet experts find it difficult to pinpoint exactly how to classify it. It can be a blessing or a curse to be labeled it. It can dramatically change lives and then abruptly change them again. 耳机 "Achy Breaky Heart" by Billy Ray Cyrus Jeanette Hershbarger St. Louis freshman 11.18.04 Jayplay 15 CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE Wednesdays, so he decided to spice things up and have a one-hit wonder theme. Now every Wednesday, the phones won't stop ringing. Smith says songs like "Puttin' on the Ritz" by Taco and "Roll to Me" by Del Amitri are local favorites. "The response when you say 'one hit wonder' is overwhelming," he says. This is also true at wedding receptions and dances. When DJ James Lee takes requests, "Cotton Eye Joe" by Rednex is usually the most popular one-hit wonder song. Lee says it's hard to imagine being a DJ at receptions and dances without one-hit wonders. Since beginning the one-hit-wonder theme, Kevin Smith has noticed misconceptions of what one-hit wonders actually are. Smith says a listener once requested Staind's "It's Been Awhile." He says Staind does not qualify as a one-hit wonder because the band is still together. Smith says people think bands like Survivor, best known for its song "Eye of the Tiger," are one-hit wonders despite other hits like "American Heartbeat" and "Burning Heart." They only remember "Eye of the Tiger." Smith had to explain to his listeners that, according to him, a one-hit wonder is any artist who has had one song on the Top 40 pop charts. Dan Thompson, creator of onehitwondercentral.com, might even go further than that. "Sometimes a hit is only truly memorable if it breaks into the Top 10," Thompson says. Thompson, Kansas City, Mo., resident, says it's important to remember that many artists are from countries other than the United States. "People from Australia get mad at me when I say Midnight Oil is a one-hit wonder," Thompson says. "But while they are huge in Australia, the band only had one hit on the Top 40 chart in the U.S." Most of the music Thompson enjoys happens to be from one-hit wonders. One night, while surfing the Internet for music, he quickly realized there was a need for a centralized Web site dedicated to one-hit wonders. "A lot of songs get lost over time," Thompson says. "They become kind of a footnote in history." Since its creation in 2000, the site now averages 370,000 hits a month. People constantly thank Thompson for creating the site. "I know someone who found a song on the site they'd been trying to find for 10 years," Thompson says. In decade-by-decade breakdowns, the site offers charts and biographical data going back to 1954, the year the Billboard Top 40 charts were standardized. "They're a real part of pop culture." says Brent Mann, writer, former disc jockey and huge fan of one-hit wonders. "They bring people back to a very specific time." Mann compiled a list of 600 one-hit wonders for his book 99 Red Balloons...and 100 Other All-Time Best One-Hit Wonders. In the book, Mann focuses on the current lives of one-hit wonders. Mann says few people know that many one-hit wonders are still around. For example, Jesus Jones, an English band who hit it big in 1991 with "Right Here, Right Now," is still together making money and on tour. "There's this misconception that it's negative to be considered a one-hit wonder," Mann says, "But think it's an amazing thing to have a hit record." There are a number of factors when looking at the cause of one-hit wonders. Most of them have to do with what the listening public wants to hear. Musical tastes change quickly, and this is evident with Anita Ward, whose 1979 hit "Ring My Bell" hit the Top 10. If disco hadn't died, she wouldn't have been a one-hit wonder. "Perhaps moreso than any other genre in the history of popular music, the '70s disco scene was littered with countless one-hit wonders," music critic Greg Prato writes on allmusic.com. Artists also struggle to duplicate the same catchy sound of their hits, or they try for so long to get that one big hit that when they do, the money and fame tears them apart. "Sometimes one-hit wonders change the way music is going," Thompson says. "For the most part, they're just diversions." But they are usually welcome diversions, even if eight years later we deny ever listening to the "Macarena." Love them or hate them, one-hit wonders are here to stay, and radio and pop culture wouldn't be the same without them. And VH1 wouldn't have anything to broadcast.

When I went to check out the town's new music hall, the thing I noticed the most was fashion of the place, and I don't mean the bar's red velvet-like wallpaper or tin ceiling tiles. That night, the place was trendy, but not in like a "Hi, my name is Brit" kind of way. To be honest, I zoned out the entire first act wondering if these people actually bought their clothes from Goodwill, or whether they spent a shit-load of money on their clothes to look like they bought them from Goodwill. After much contemplation and alcohol consumption, I settled — for the majority of cases — on the latter. With all the work they went into fashioning a look that was just "thrown together," it was the matching belts and shoes that gave it away. Max.

"Why is a robot the governor of California?" Bernal asks. In The Motorcycle Diaries, Bernal plays Guevara circa 1952, when the young medical student embarked on a year-long journey Diaries "one of the most beautiful experiences" he's ever had. A native of Guadalajara, Mexico, Bernal studied at London's Central School of Speech and Drama in the late 1990s. The handsome, puppy-eyed star of Y Tu Mama “It' WEIRD ENOUGH TO DO A SEX SCENE WITHOUT DOING IT WITH YOUR BEST FRIEND. WE HAD LOTS OF TEQUILA SHOTS TO BUILD UP OUR COURAGE.” — GAEL GARCIA BERNAL Tambien has been a key through South America with friend Alberto Granado. The film, which opens tomorrow at Liberty Hall, 644 Massachusetts St., is based on the diaries Guevara and Granado kept throughout the trip. Bernal was 23 at the time of the shoot, the same age Guevara was when he traveled across Argentina, Brazil and Peru on Granado's broken-down 1939 Norton 500 motorbike, ironically nicknamed "The Mighty One." This shared characteristic isn't lost on the actor, who considers the South American shoot of The Motorcycle humbler has been a key figure in the Latin- American film boom that has introduced audiences to the work of Guillermo Del Toro, the gothic-horror magician behind Blade 2 and Hellboy, and Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, the gritty stylist who cast Bernal in Amores Perros before directing 21 Grams. Bernal, who hopes to keep working in Latin-American films, says there's a wealth of talent in Mexico but few resources. "The infrastructure just isn't there yet," he says. For Diaries, Bernal read three Guevara biographies, brushed up on his Argentinean accent and studied the film's literary world; in the Latin America of the 1950s, William Faulkner was in fashion and Guevara was reading the poetry of Pablo Neruda. Bernal discussed his major roles in a phone interview. Before hanging up, he told me to check out imsorry.com, where people can post apologies for reelecting a certain American president. Amores Perros (2000) Mexican director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's breakthrough film, nominated for the Best Foreign-Language Film Oscar in 2000, gave Bernal his first major film role." I was 20 years old, and I didn't know what I was doing. We were all just basically running on instinct on that film." Y Tu Mama Tambien (2002) Bernal co-stars with real-life pal Diego Luna in Alfonso Cuaron's erotic road movie. The film culminates in an explicit sex scene between Bernal, Luna and the woman of their desire, played by Maribel Verdu. "It's weird enough to do a sex scene without doing it with your best friend. We had lots of tequila shots to build up our courage." The Motorcycle Diaries (2004) Walter Salles directed Bernal as the young revolutionary Che Guevara in this biopic. The production included visits to such otherworldly sites as the Machu Pichu ruins of Peru. "All of us who come from this continent, we feel an awakening and a shock by confronting these places. There's definitely a before-and-after effect. It's a must for every American." Bad Education (2004) In his first cross-dressing role, Bernal plays a transvestite and a wannabe actor in Pedro Almodovar's melodrama about the effects of child sexual abuse on two young Catholics." Almodovar is one of the last living legends. He's always done it his own way, and that's pretty hard to do these days. He's incredibly specific about the world he wants to create, which ended up being very freeing." The Motorcycle Diaries (★★★) R,128 minutes The socialist revolution makes a comeback in Walter Salles' beautifully filmed tribute to Che Guevara, the man whose bearded visage has become a hip social statement in our radically commercialized media age. The Motorcycle Diaries sends similar mixed messages as it struggles to fit revolutionary thought into a tidy mainstream package. Starts tomorrow at Liberty Hall Gael Garcia Bernal stars as Ernesto "Che" Guevara, who as a 23-year-old medical student takes a road-trip with Alberto Granado. Traveling on "The Mighty One," Alberto's sputtering 1939 Norton 500 motorbike, the duo search out booze and girls when they're not wiping out along the rugged roadways of 1952 South America. The journey takes on a more serious dimension as Ernesto and Alberto encounter Communist workers victimized by the state. Eventually they arrive at a leper colony, where they volunteer to help out. Communism has become an abstract political buzzword in America, signifying some great, unknowable evil. By confronting some of its historical realities, in scenes that pit the working poor against state-controlled corporations, director Salles (Central Station) has made a film that's bound to infuriate right-wingers and enthrall lefties. It's no wonder that The Motorcycle Diaries has been both under- and overrated. Apart from its politics, the film features ravishing locales that wash over you like a warm sea breeze, and it's filled with captivating performances. Bernal, star of the sexy Y Tu Mama Tambien, displays a mature, implosive power, particularly in scenes where Salles relies on Ernesto's gaze to communicate the future revolutionary's feelings. As Alberto, Rodrigo de la Serna more than keeps up with Bernal in a richly comedic role. Diaries reminded me a little of the early work of the aging (and former Communist) director Bernardo Bertolucci, especially his radical 1900. Both films are flawed but stunning sensory experiences, and your enjoyment of them depends on personal dogma. — Stephen Shupe 11.18.04 Jayplay 19 LISTEN Press photo Big Metal Rooster: Not Your Average Jam Band Local band Big Metal Rooster has started to make a name for itself and gathered quite a following in the process. Although many would refer to it as a "jam band," these guys take classic rock, bluegrass, and jazz and blend them together to create a style all their own. "You can call it psychedelic rock, you can call it jam, but more than anything you can call it exploratory," said bassist Derek Hein. "It's about taking risks, constantly creating new ideas, and challenging yourself as a musician. Constant challenge is what makes it interesting." The band — consisting of Hein, guitarists Tom Fleming, Luke Henry, and Bill Wassung and drummer Matt Miner — has influences ranging from Phish, The Grateful Dead and Led Zeppelin, to exploratory artists like Miles Davis and Herbie Hancock. Fleming and Hein started Big Metal Rooster, a named inspired by an unusual housewarming gift they received, in the summer of 2000. "We started playing with friends, other local Topekans, as well as people we knew in Lawrence," said Fleming. "We played at parties and began to gather a following of people to see us perform in local venues." After a few years of rotating through different guitarists and drummers, Henry and Wassung came into the picture. "Derek met Luke by random chance at his apartment complex," said Fleming. "They discovered that they both played music, and not long after, Luke was in the band. Wassung had recently left the band he was playing in, Cosmic Egg, when he decided to join up with Big Metal Rooster, about the same time Henry did. After seeing a gig at Bambino's, Miner also decided to come on board, completing the quintet. "I really liked their style of music and I really liked the musicians," said Wassung. "It is a totally equal-part band where even if someone stands out more in a particular jam, any of the musicians could be the thing that catches your ear. "As Big Metal Rooster played more and more shows, its loyal fan following continued to grow. In the summer of 2003, the band recorded its self-titled album. Similar in style to and partially inspired by Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, this live studio recording has six songs that flow together in what ultimately gives the illusion of one long track. Playing at local venues such as the Bottleneck, Fatso's and the Granada, as well as at music festivals such as Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival, held in Lawrence this past summer, Big Metal Rooster is starting to get its name out there. The members agree Wakarusa is their biggest accomplishment to date, and the experience changed them as a band. "Wakarusa was something much bigger than anything we had done before," said Hein. "Having it in Lawrence made it all the more special for us. It just shows that the music scene still exists here and good things are still coming out of the Midwest." The band has also played shows in Chicago, St. Louis, multiple cities in Colorado and won the Highland Jam Off in Elkins, W. Va., giving it the opportunity to headline the first annual ZENfest. If you are into the local music scene, this is one band you don't want to miss. With its appealing lyrics, original sound and an obvious love for fans, you can be sure to hear a lot more of Big Metal Rooster in the near future.

Foreshadowed by Weird Al Yankovic and other parodists (though some would say Journey's Infinity was the first fake album, intentioned or otherwise) fake music has now firmly embedded itself in the modern pop experience. Along the way, though. [Picture] something happened that pop culture did not intend: fake music became superior to its "modern" genre colleagues. Fake music has superimposed itself above its counterparts in two ways: a) pretending it's a different year, therefore being uninhibited and b) singing a lot about sex. The Darkness act like 2004 is in fact a hybrid of 1974 and 1984, while overtly seeking permission to land in your pants. For those of you still reading this, yes there is a point and it is Har Mar Superstar, faux R&B superman. On The Handler, this portly, balding sex god from Minneapolis wraps Parliament, Prince and Michael Jackson into a funky tortilla, which he then eats and expels in a dichotomic cloud. The majority of songs on The Handler are traditional Har Mar: fun-loving and sexual, dropping innumerable wet panty boasts and nude sunbathing encouragement. "Transit" and "Body Request" are infectious "70s R&B throwbacks, opening the album with hedonistic provocation. Karen Orzolek (O., to admirers) guests on "Cut Me Up," moaning a woozy, (presumably) sexually fatigued intro. Even "DUI," an ode to the now-tired topic of drunk-dialing, is fresh with lines like "Lookin' out in the club, I see a lotta hotties/Tell me which of you will be my mom." Unfortunately for Har Mar and partygors everywhere, the latter half of The Handier is bogged down by discomfiture and one too many basketball metaphors (the Northern State aided "Bird In The Hand"). "O" sounds like a coped Dobie Gray song, something to stroll along the beach to. On the album's closer, "Alone Again (Naturally,)” a sad, reflective Har Mar brings God into the mix (never a topic to get the party started) asking "If he really does exist/Why did he desert me in my hour of need." At his best, Har Mar is a cheeky party instigator, doling out funk and innuendo like nobody else. There are more great tracks on The Handler than not, but the serious and unimaginative songs lessen its appeal. The first half of the album is pure stimulant, just scratch off the depressants. Dave Ruigh Grade: B --- Josh Zuckerman A Totally New Sensation The debut album from Josh Zuckerman, a singer/songwriter originally from St. Louis, is just frustrating to listen to. He has the talent, at least as far as instrumentation, but his voice simply does not match up well with his music. Zuckerman has a voice you could hate or just be indifferent to — it's sort of a nasally growl at times, and other times it's a flat attempt to impersonate the Gin Blossoms...oh, and nasally. The music combines roots-rock, folk, and blues and is begging for someone like John Mayer to add melody to it. but not Josh Zuckerman. Zuckerman's voice is a m bit i o u s enough, but it just seems to clash with most of the music on the album. I might also mention that UNIVERSITY OF NEW SAN FRANCISCO some of the music gets very cheesy. The darker Zuckerman gets, the better, though, like on the acoustic-based "A Place That I Call Home." Other than that, I'm afraid this album brought a "totally new sensation" I could have done without. Grade: D Matt Beat 耳罩 Hal Holbrook in Mark Twain Tonight!

JOHNNY'S TAVERN Over 50 Years 1953 200 101 N 2nd St. 669 14 812-0377 C video games Lord of the Rings: The Third Age After more than 11 hours and nearly 30 percent completion, this is what I have to say about The Third Age: not too shabby, EA, not too shabby at all. The 30-second TV spots proclaimed this game as "The greatest RPG since Final Fantasy!" and I can see why they would make that comparison. EA took many of the formulas that worked in the Final Fantasy series and shoved it all together in this tale of epic proportions. Instead of retelling the story we've heard over and over, The Third Age puts players into the shoes of a Gondorian soldier and friends traveling roughly along the same path as the Fellowship. You'll rescue trapped elves, fight hordes of orcs, uruk-hai goblins and meet new companions as you make your way toward your final goal. The battle system is completely turn-based so you can make decisions as fast or slow as you please without adverse effects, i.e., having your entire party wiped out as you think of what you should do next. Every action a character takes draws from his or her action point pool which, when depleted, allows characters the use of only the most basic attacks. Action points can be replenished with items, however. Skill points are earned every time you performs special attacks which in turn allow a character to gain even better skills, whether that be stronger attacks or party aiding war cries. The problem is that these new skills don't look much different than the old skills. Battles tend to get repetitive quickly when fighting one kind of enemy in a given area. One of the most intense battles will have some people angry at EA because it has your party aiding Gandalf as he fights the cool-looking Balrog. The Third Age has a great world to draw its story from and mostly does a good job blending these new characters into the world and events that are taking place. For fans of RPGs and Tolkien's masterpiece, this game is a must play, but it is not for everybody. Grade Bthe back into the book section. As I walked to the back, I wanted to cry. I was so proud of the gaming community that day. The Master Chief has returned. — Nick Finnegan Halo 2 Nov. 9 will go down as one of the biggest days in gaming history. The midnight release of Halo 2 was something to see. I decided to go check out the release of it and see if people were hyped up about it as I thought they would be. Sure enough, I go down to Hastings and I see a line inside it wrapping around to 364 Covenant stage a space attack on the Marines and everything starts up again. The sequel is a lot like the first one but has way more features to it: new enemies to face, places to battle, and more weapons to use. One new feature is the ability to dual-wield certain weapons. The players now use both trigger buttons to shoot the weapons on the corresponding hand. Also, the addition of new weapons and weapons that you couldn't use in the first one is exceptional. One of them is the Energy sword. This is the best weapon when using melee attacks. If you can get your enemy in the crosshairs and it turns red, it will be a one-hit kill if it connects. Also, you can pilot more vehicles. You can pilot the Covenant tanks that you couldn't drive in the first one. The game picks up right after the events of Halo. Halo has been destroyed and an Elite of the Covenant is being put on trial for letting it be blown up. For this crime, he is tortured and his fleet will stay behind during the Covenants attack upon Earth. He is also labeled as a heretic. Meanwhile, Master Chief is back on Earth and is being rewarded for his actions. All of a sudden, the The ability to destroy vehicles makes it seem more realistic. You can even kick other people off vehicles. A good thing to do to a player in a tank is to bust open the hatch and pop a grenade into it. They will either have to evacuate the vehicle, or stay in and get blow up. Halo 2 is compatible online. You can hook your XBox up to XBox Live and can play anyone, anywhere. Now you don't have to all be on the same network to take on other players. It's still the same Halo, just with a new story and a few add-ons. And it's still the best to play the game with packs of people.

The University of Kansas KU Card Student Nick Hobbs KANSAN READER She's still here The sister I've always known but have never met Illustration by Scott Drummond When I think of being home, I think of a single photograph framed with cushiony apple-red velvet, bordered with white eyelet lace, that has yellowed over the years. This photo has adorned our coffee tables. counter tops and mantels in the three homes my family has grown in. I have a distinct memory of my youngest brother bringing the photo into the family room one Christmas Eve as we gathered to open presents. He set the cozy frame down on an the end table near the piano and said, "She's with us!" In the frame is a tiny baby, barely two pounds, bound in an incubator by tubes and medical tape. She's my older sister. PENG By Megan Clause Jayplay writer Andréa. On Nov. 16, 1981, Andrea was born a month premature, weighing just more than three pounds. Four days later, my mother held her for the first time. Andréa had lost a pound from surgery and was slightly jaundiced. She wrinkled her face and opened her mouth to indicate that she was crying, but no sound came out. She was perfect on the outside, but a mess on the inside. She was diagnosed with Trisomy 18, a chromosomal genetic disorder that affects about one in every 4,000 live births. It's a wonder she ever made it past the womb: 95 percent of Trisomy-18 babies are never born. Only five to 10 percent survive past age one, and these children can experience a range of medical problems from congenital heart disease to mental retardation. Andréa never left the hospital. In the early-morning hours of Thanksgiving Day, just 10 days after her birth, Andréa died in my mother's arms. But she never really left us. My earliest memory of her was a hot day in August, the first day of the second grade. Wearing a neon green "Drug-free" T-shirt and neon green socks to match, I shyly strolled into Mrs. Duensing's classroom. She remarked that we could choose our own seats for the first day. After scanning the room, which was arranged with clusters of four desks, I chose an empty seat next to a redheaded girl I knew. I then grabbed an extra chair set it next to me. That chair was for Andréa. For most of my childhood, I imagined her as my spiritual friend. I visualized that she looked like me, talked like me and dressed like me — but with the refinements of an older, wiser sister. My mind sent thoughts to her in the daytime; I talked with her at bedtime. I consulted with her about my worries, asked for advice and imagined hearing her response. She was my older sister, my conscience, my friend and my guardian angel. As I grew up, my parents always made some attempt to incorporate her into family gatherings. For a while, she had a designated spot at the dinner table, she hd mini birthday celebrations and we made periodic visits to her gravesite. As time passed and we all grew older, Andrée's presence in our family life weakened. We moved away from the town where she is buried. Music lessons, sports practices and club meetings meant family meals were infrequent and when we did eat together, the extra chair had disappeared from the setting. Her birthday came and went like any other day. I didn't realize it at the time, but as I went from middle school to high school and then on to college, I took her with me. I've had some close friends, but it's taken a long time to realize that she's always been my best friend. Remembering how I incorporated her into my life as a child reminds me think more about her from day to day. And I do. She turned 23 a couple days ago. I smiled the entire day. As a family, we haven't talked about her in a while. But whenever I return home and see her picture set between red velvet and lace, I am reminded that she's always been with us, but most importantly, that she's always been with me. 11.18.04 Jayplay 23 Weekly Specials @ Kansan.com Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tues Wed $1 Shots$ 2.50 Dbl Wells 75¢ Draws $1 Wells$ 1 Shots $2.25 Rolling Rock Bottles$ 1 Shots $3 Red Bull Screaing Eagle$ 2.25 High Life Bottles $1 Shots$ 1.50 Draws $1 Off Import Btls$ 1 Shots $2.25 Harp Bottles$ 1 Shots $1 Shots$ 1.50 Pint Blvd. Wheat & Pale Ale Tower Thursdays! $7 2 Liter Towers$ 3 Jager Bombs Lunch Special- $4.99 Chicken Fried Steak Happy Hour Appetizers 4-6pm$ 2.50 Rolling Rock Bottles $2.50 Rock Green Light Bottles$ 2 Captain Morgan Drinks Wings; 10 for $4, 20 for$ 7, 40 for $14$ 3 Vodka and Energy Drinks $4.99 Chicken Finger Basket Tower Tuesdays!$ 7 2 Liter Towers $2 Smirnoff Flavors$ 2.50 Corona, Dos Equis, Negra Modolo Pacifico $2 Parrot Bay Drinks$ 1 12 oz Draws $3.50 Jager Bombers$ 3.75 Domestic Pitchers $2 Screwdrivers & Bloody Mary's$ 2 Domestic 12oz Bottles $2 Well Drinks$ 3.75 Pitcher $1.75 Domestic Bottles$ 2 Captain Drinks Band: Matt Walsh $2.50 Premium Pints$ 2 Stoli’s DJ $3 Double Wells Band: Joey Skiddmore$ 3.50 Bloodys $5.50 Burger/Fries/Pint Half Price Pizza$ 3.50 Pitchers $1 Tacos$ 2.25 Blvd. Pints Texas Hold ‘Em 7-10 pm $3 Double Red Bull & Vodkas$ 2.75 Biggies Retro-active Wed. 80’s & 90’s Music $2.75 Imported Bottles$ 1 Kami Shots $4 Captain Dbl Free Pool (12am-2am)$ 2 Bully Pint $4 Smirnoff Dbl$ 5 Miller Pitchers $1 Draw & Shot Mix$ 2 Wells Brody Buster Band $2 Screwdrivers$ 3.50 super Premium Bottles $3.75 Bloody Marys Free Pool (12am-2am)$ 1 Draw & Shot Mix $2 Wells Free Pool (12am-2am)$ 2.25 Domestic Bottles $4 Long Islands$ 1 Fuzzy Shot Free Pool (12am-2am) $5 Miller Pitcher$ 2 Ice 101 Shot Free Pool (12am-2am) $5.99 Coppola Rosso Bionco 5% Student & Faculty Discount with ID$ 5.99 Coppola Rosso Bionco 5% Student & Faculty Discount with ID $5.99 Coppola Rosso Bionco 5% Student & Faculty Discount with ID$ 5.99 Coppola Rosso Bionco 5% Student & Faculty Discount with ID $5.99 Coppola Rosso Bionco 5% Student & Faculty Discount with ID$ 2 Any Bottle $3.50 Jager Bombs$ 5 Grilled Chicken $2 16oz Pounder Bottles$ 2 Captains $5 Phillies$ 2.50 32oz Big Beers $3 Vodka & Energy Drink$ 5 Chicken Strips $4 Domestic Pitchers$ 2.50 Bloody Marys $5 Burgers$ 2 Domestic Bottles $2 Wells 25¢ Wings$ 1.50 Domestic Pints $2 Smirnoff/UV Mixers Buy One Entree get One 1/2 Price$ 3 Domestic Pitchers $3 Calls 1/2 Price Appetizers 2 for 1 Wells 50% Domestic Draws$ 4 Chicken & Buffalo Strips DJ Nick Rodell $1.50 Wells$ 2 Domestic Bottles $6 Phillies$ 2 Big Beers $5 Red, White & Blue Burger All Pitchers$ 5 25¢ Wings $2.50 Import Bottles$ 2 Captains 1/2 Price Appetizers $2.23 oz Domestic Draws$ 4 Reubens $4 Domestic Pitchers$ 6 Import Pitchers $3 Dbl Bacardi 2 for 1 Burgers Graduation and Preorder Needs (www.jayhawk-bookstore.com) 10% off Art Supplies Weekend Tailgate Specials 25%-40% Off Weekend Tailgate Specials 25%-40% Off Graduation and Preorder Needs (www.jayhawk-bookstore.com) Graduation and Preorder Needs (www.jayhawk-bookstore.com) Try Allen & US 103 Free Dance Lessons 7-8pm$ 1 Draws, $2 Wells,$ 4.75 Pitchers Friday Specials: $5 Westwind Coyote Ulys Night$ 100 Tight Jeese Prize Preformances and Drink Specials every Hour Hottest New Music Jello Wrestling Night $2 Jelle & Weil Shots$ 3 32 oz Headaches $2 16 oz Draws,$ 5 62 oz Pitchers, $2 Wells,$ 2 Coors Longnecks & Aspen Edge Products $1.75 Domestic Schooners$ 3 Premiums $2.50 on most Bottled Beer$ 3.25 Blvd. Schooners and Freestate $1.50 Wells Large 1 Topping Pizza with 2 Beers for$ 10.50 Large 1 Topping Pizza with 2 Beers for $10.50 Large Specialty Pizza with 10 Cinnamon Stix and 10 Wings for$ 14.99 Buy a Large Pizza at regular price and recieve a FREE Medium Pizza (5-9pm) Buy a Large Pizza at regular price and recieve a FREE Medium Pizza (5-9pm) Value Meal Deal; Personal Pan with Breadsticks and a Drink for $3 Ride the T for 50¢ Ride the T for 50¢ Ride the T for 50¢ Bitesize Yachi Club property of Yachi Club ASTROS BAR & GRILL COUNTRY TRAVEL AUTHORIZED STATION Pool Room WORLD Wine & Beer THE PHROGOD DOG BIRD CRIES madhatter bord&grill RS VINEWOOD LOUISE'S LOUISE'S Pizza Hut TENNESSEE WORLDWIDE TRANSACTIONS 6B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 17 THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18. 2004 Sports Shortstop is team's 'Money' player Jeff Jacobsen/KUAC Destiny Frankenstein, Broken Arrow, Oklaw, junior, earned the Oklahoma high school Gatorade Player of the Year in 2001 and is the team's starting shortstop. GOING DEEP 7 GOING DIEY SHANE KUCERA skucera@kansan.com Softball leader dominates field leads by example Editor's Note: Athletes at the University of Kansas are more than just victories and statistics — they're real people with opinions on sports, life and love. Each Thursday, Kansan sportwriter Shane Kucera sits with a student athlete and discusses issues beyond the playing field. Kansas arguably has the most memorable name in all of college sports: Destiny Frankenstein. The softball team's junior shortstop from Broken Arrow, Okla., has a lot more than a unique name. Kansas recruited Frankenstein after she earned Oklahoma high school Gatorade Player of the Year in 2001 and was chosen as an All-American. She has continued her success at Kansas, starting at shortstop since her freshman year and proving to be a dominant player at the plate and on the bases. This week, Frankenstein talks about her life on and off the softball field. Q: What are some of the highlights of playing softball? A: One of the biggest highlights was getting a new field. That was a big deal to all of us because we were on the old school field and when we got that donation we got a really good field. Softball itself is a team sport with an individual concept. You really have to be a team player, but you also have to do your job when it's your turn Q: How did you get the nickname "Money?" A: Actually, that's from Ashley Goodrich and Jessica Moppin. Jessica plays second base next to me, so when we do something, she's like, "That was money!" They both started calling me that, but the team makes fun of me because it's only those two. Q: Do you think of yourself as a team leader? A: I think this year's team is full of team leaders, but I try to lead by example. I wouldn't put myself out there if my队 didn't depend on me. Q: How did your parents come up with the name Destiny? A: Well, my sister's name is Cherish, so I guess they couldn't leave me out in the cold with a name like Amanda or something. They had to come up with something, and it took them a really long time to get pregnant with me, so I think it was kind of a fate issue for them. Q: Do people ask you if you've read the book *Frankenstein*? A: Yeah, and all the movies. They always ask me about Young Frankenstein, and I just say, 'Yeah it's a cool movie.' People always quote stuff at me, and I'm just like, 'I have no idea what you're talking about.' Q: What made you choose Kansas over other schools offering you a scholarship? A: I like the tradition here. When I was young I went to a basketball game and, you know, that's a really big deal. And, the family; this team got to know me as a person, and I know they weren't just depending on me to be just an athlete. They were really looking at who I was and how I fit in with the team, and I really liked that. Q: What's your favorite weekend spot in Lawrence? A: My bed. No, I like to eat, so we go out to eat a lot as a team. I don't really do anything because our weeks are so packed that on the weekends, I just hang around. I do love Jimmy John's. They even know my order. I'll walk in and they'll know exactly what I want. Q: Do you want to go on with softball after college? A: I would love to, but it's really competitive, especially since the sport is growing. They're bringing back the women's professional league. I don't know how that's going to take, but I'll probably try. I would love to be in the Olympics, but I mean, who doesn't want to be? Every day I work towards bettering myself, and I can't see my life without softball — either if it's coaching or playing, I'd like to do it. Q: If our baseball team played a game of softball against your team, who would win? A: Well, if they could hit the ball they could win, because they could definitely rock it. G: Have you ever heard of softball players using steroids? A: I haven't ever heard of it personally, but I would think if they want to do it, it would be there. Q: How is religion incorporated into your life? A: When somebody says something to you, you always have in the forefront of your mind that you're a good person, and God is always watching — that's comforting, you know. Q: What do you want to be doing in five years? A: I'd like to be out of school. But coaching. I love to coach whatever level that could be. I could see myself coaching or summer-ball coaching when I'm doing whatever job I decide to do. Q: When did you get your tongue ring? A: My senior year in high school. I took it out my freshman year and I hit really bad, and I'm really superstitious, so I had to go get it redone. My parent and my coaches were not very happy about it. I don't play without it, it's just there, comforting to know. Kucera is an Omaha, Neb., senior in journalism.

Car hits building after police chase BY AUSTIN CASTER AND AMANDA O'TOOLE editor@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITERS A 30-year-old KU student drove his car through the front entrance of the J. Gladman Gallery at the corner of 14th and Massachusetts streets after a car chase gave awry just before 1 a.m. yesterday, police said. Sarah Heath was driving home from a friend's house when she saw the crash. Police cars blocked off her street so she had to find another route home. MEN'S BASKETBALL "This is the best installation piece I've ever seen at the J. Gladman Gallery," Heath, Wichita senior and art major said. The crash was the result of a pursuit between the driver and Lawrence police, Sgt. Dan Ward said. He said patrons of The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., called police after they said they saw a man throw a rock through a window of the bar. The man then drove south on New Hampshire Street without using his headlights.

The No. 1 team in the country will tip off at 7 tonight in Allen Fieldhouse. Kansas has won 32 straight home openers, but this year there is some added pressure. Kansas hasn't been the preseason No.1 in the Associated Press poll since the 1956-57 season. Coach Bill Self said the ranking didn't mean much, but it was a credit to the veteran players. "Do we deserve it? No. I don't know who does. And the only reason that we're preseason ranked where we are is because we have experience returning that are really good players." Self said. "We don't deserve it, but I think that puts some pressure on us to try to play to it." The season started earlier than usual when the Jayhawks participated in a preseason exhibition tournament in Canada during Labor Day weekend. The Jayhawks went 4-0 on the tour. Since then, they have defeated Emporia State and Washburn in exhibition games, making their exhibition season record 6-0. The players said that after an unusually long exhibition season, they were more than ready to play in a regular season game. The wins start to count now." Keith Langford, senior guard, said. For Langford and the other three seniors, Aaron Miles, Mike Lee and Wayne Simien, this is the beginning of the end and they want to go all the way this year.

Steven Bartkoski/KANSAN Regents approve Rec Center expansion BY ROSE FITCH rfitch@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Students will soon be able to enjoy an expansion of the Student Fitness Recreation Center. The Kansas Board of Regents approved the plan yesterday. The addition to the center will include four basketball courts, three racquetball courts, a running track extension and a free weight area. The estimated cost of the addition is $6,132,750. The Kansas Development Finance Agency will issue revenue bonds that will provide the financing for the addition, according to the Regents agenda. The bonds will be secured with a pledge of the center fee and revenues from the operation of the facility. Steve Munch, student body president, said the addition would not increase center fees for students. Board members did not give a date for when they planned to approve or deny the proposal. The Regents also accepted a report for future examination that proposed increasing student housing fees at all six Regents schools. By proposing the increase, the universities were indicating the increases were necessary to offset expected operating cost increases and to provide for repair and renovation, the agenda stated. University officials also indicated the increases had been reviewed by the appropriate campus groups with student representation. The Regens also approved an update in English language competency in universities' and the Board's policy manuals. In the current policy, faculty members and graduate teaching assistants needed to score either a 50 on the Test of Spoken English or score a 240 on the Speaking Proficiency English Assessment Kit. The tests determine whether faculty members and GTAs whose first language is not English are able to speak English well enough to teach. SEE EXPANSION ON PAGE 7A Brain tumor research donations asked for BY AMANDA O'TOLE aotole@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Parents of the former University of Kansas student who died more than a week ago are asking for donations to be made to organizations benefiting brain tumor research. The family of Dusty Maimer is accepting, donations through the American Cancer Society's Heartland Hope Lodge of Kansas City at www.cancer.org and the American Brain Tumor Association at http://hope.abta.org. Malmer, who attended the University from 2001 to 2002, died Nov. 8 when a blood clot flowed to his heart. brain hemorrhage during finals week in Fall 2002. --- The hemorrhage left Maimer without the use of his left side. Even after his left the University, one of his goals was still to graduate college. Maimer said her son was excited about two advanced writing classes he took from Central Missouri State, but a second brain tumor this summer thwarted He was a sophomore living in Stephenson Scholarship Hall studying journalism and music when he left the University. MAIMER His mother, Cheri Maimer, said he battled back and regained the ability to walk, type on the computer and write. Maimer said her son had asked doctors to help him find a way to live after successive chemotherapy treatments failed. In the months leading to his death, at least three separate tumors were removed from his brain, two of which were the size of softballs. "Dusty looked at the doctors and said 'I'm not ready to die, I don't want to die.'" she said. his efforts. Maimer said it was then they decided to take a more aggressive approach with the tumors. After an intense radiation session that involved using catheters in his brain, Cheri and Mark Maimer, Dusty's father, thought they had beaten the cancer. Maimer said the blood clot was probably caused by the position her son was His family described him as an outgoing, intelligent man who had a calming effect on children and babies. Mainer said her son had sustained his witty personality throughout his illness. For this she was amazed and thankful.

He would miss hugging people every day the most, Maimer said he told her. Mark Maimer enjoyed the philosophical discussions he and his son had. He enjoyed watching his son build a life, and a big part of that was being at the University. He said one the craziest things his son told him about college was when his son and some hallmates lying in the days before he died. He was scheduled to leave the hospital to go home two days earlier. "Dustin touched a number of lives. There was a reason he lived through the hemorrhage and the first tumor," she said. "If God says it's your time, it's your time." Maimer said she and her family were taking things day by day. His parents live at Whitman Air Force Base in Missouri. They had asked donations go to the Hope Lodge, a free-lodging place for cancer patients and caretakers, because that is where Maimer and her son had stayed for a lot of his treatment and the American Brain Tumor Association so research and publicity can continue about brain cancer.

Clinton library opens in Little Rock THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Bill Clinton opened his library Thursday with a rock 'n' roll gala that hailed the $165 million glass-and-steel museum as "a gift to the future by a man who always believed in the future." Despite a steady, bone-chilling rain, nearly 30,000 people joined a celebration that included tributes from President Bush, his father and former President Carter. Rock stars Bono and The Edge of the band U2 performed a three-song set before Clinton spoke to a crowd that included dignitaries and "The story that began in a little house on Hervey Street in Hope, Arkansas, inspires people from every background all over America," President Bush said of Clinton's rise from small-town beginnings to the White House. ordinary folk. Poetry and gospel singing added a down-home flavor. The William J. Clinton Presidential Center is a sleek, futuristic complex that contains more than 80 million items from the former president's life. The library celebrates eight years of peace and prosperity and dismisses his impeachment as a Republican vendetta. The 27-acre complex is cantilevered out over the Arkansas River — an allusion to Clinton's desire to build a "bridge to the 21st century." "What it is to me is a symbol of not only what I tried to do but what I want to do with the rest of my life, building bridges from yesterday to tomorrow, building bridges across racial and religious and ethnic income and political divides," said Clinton, 58, accompanied by his wife and daughter. "I want young people to want to see not only what I did with my life but to see what they could do with their lives," he said, "because this is mostly the story of what we the people can do when we work together." Bush called the library "a gift to the future by a man who always believed in the future, and today we thank him for loving and serving America." A number of celebrities traveled to Little Rock for the opening, including actors Kevin Spacey and Robin Williams, and Democrats John Kerry and Al Gore, Clinton's vice president. Clinton pointed out that during the eight years he and Gore led the country, the nation reduced the national debt and reformed the military while also reducing poverty and making college accessible to more people.

The Scholarship Hall Leadership Development Program is holding a date auction Saturday night in the Kansas Room on Level 5 of the Kansas Union. The auction starts at 7:30. All the money made in the auction will be donated to the Marso Fund, said Richard Zayas, Smithville, Mo., sophomore and program crew leader.

The project's goal was to save the University money by decreasing energy usage. The $18 million project guaranteed $1.5 million in energy savings each year, but so far the savings haven't been as much as projected, said Cindy Strecker, energy manager for Facilities Operations at the University. For the first three months, July, August and September, total savings were $121,000. The projected guaranteed savings were $322,600. Steven Sperger, marketing communications manager for Chevron, said the project took 18 months to complete and savings started in July. Total savings for September 2004 were $89,000. The prorated guaranteed amount for that month was $114,561. It's hard to hit the projected savings target right off the bat, Strecker said. "The first year might be kind of rough." Strecker said. Chevron provides large institutions that have limited budgets a chance to get needed facility updates and improvements, said Steven Spurgeon, marketing communications manager for Chevron. The project is energy savings performance contracting, which allows the University to use the money it saves by using less energy to pay for the improvements, Spurgeon said. Chevron pays the difference between what Facilities Operations sees in savings and what is not accounted for yet, he said. Some of the work done includes water conservation, such as low water usage shower heads, and lighting, heating ventilation and air conditioning. The project pretty much includes everything that concerns energy and water usage. Spurgeon said. Chevron doesn't want to write a check to Facilities Operations every year, so it monitors the savings from the bigger buildings. Strecker said. Strecker said she thought it was easy to get people concerned about the numbers, but that the savings would improve. Right now, Chevron is not sure why the savings are not adding up to the initial projection. Spurgeon said. Monitoring of the savings began in July. "We know they're there, we just have to find them," Spurgeon said. The first year is a period of tweaking and fine tuning. Spurgeon said. It's not unusual to not see that amount of savings right away, he said. The University is in a constant mode of change and construction, and Chevron is having to account for all of the energy used in that construction, Spurgeon said. To ensure savings meet projections, Chevron is working with the University to establish a plan to determine the energy used by buildings and construction on campus, Spurgeon said. Chevron has implemented energy conservation techniques in 77 buildings on campus, including Allen Fieldhouse, Fraser Hall, Wesco Hall and the chancellor's guest house. — Edited by Neil Mulka Professor predicts 'Arabization' BY ANDY HYLAND ahyland@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Ali Marzui lent his support to the Palestinian cause last night and also spoke of the African region's trend toward "Arabization." Marzui, a professor at Cornell and State University of New York-Binghamton and author of more than 20 books, gave the first Mohmed Buba Marwa lecture last night. The lecture was created in part by the contribution of Marwa, a Nigerian business and political leader, and will be held annually. Marzui talked about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and the death of Yasser Arafat, the leader of the Palestinian Liberation Organization. "Yasser Arafat was a freedom fighter and a hero," he said to the crowd of about 250 people in Budig Hall. He compared Arafat and the Palestinians to black South Africans under apartheid. "Nelson Mandela and Yasser Arafat were very sympathetic to each other's causes," he said. "In my mind, I inevitably compare Nelson Mandela and Yasser Arafat as freedom fighters." Marzui also made the distinction between Arabs, who are a group based on their shared native speaking of Arabic, and Muslims, who practice Islam. Amanda Kim Stairrett/KANSAN flict between the more Arabized and the less Arabized. That distinction was one of the things that Brittany Zschoche, Lenexa senior, took away from the lecture. He said the conflict between the two groups would eventually lead to an "Afrabia," where the two cultures overlapped. Zschoche attended the lecture because of her interest in world affairs. The conflict in the Darfur region of Sudan, Marzul said, can be characterized as a con- "Sudan is Afrabia in miniature." he said. "I like to gain perspective about the world and crises that need to be dealt with," she said, and mentioned the civil war in Sudan. Marzui said there were examples of Arabization all over the continent with people combining the two cultures in several different ways. For example, he said, there are cultural "Afrabians," who are geographic Africans, dress like Arabs and practice Islam. Matthew Miller, Topeka senior, attended the lecture because he was taking a course in art history that dealt with West African art. Ali A. Mazrui speaks about the number of Arab people in Africa last night. Mazrui is the Albert Schweitzer professor in the humanities and director of the Institute of Global Cultural Studies at the State University of New York-Binghamton. "I didn't know about the complexity of issues between Arab affiliations and African affiliations " he said In the end, Marzui said he wished Muslims would follow the teachings of their own Quran. "God formed us into nations and tribes so that we may know each other," he said, quoting from the Muslim holy book. "I hope they listen."

"Profanity" is a loose category of English words and usages. "Though "profanity" once meant language that was disrespectful or disdainful of sacred things, today the word has a generalized meaning of language that is "simply distasteful, debased, or improper," according to the Columbia Guide to Standard American English. Now, 'profanity' includes words or phrases that blatantly disrespect almost any group or idea. APRIL BENSON AND LAUREN STEWART opinion@kansan.com Comedian George Carlin spoke of "seven deadly words" that couldn't be said on television — the words "that will infect your soul, curve your spine and keep the country from winning the war." Carlin — though sarcastic — touches on an important point: profanity has power. For one thing, this category holds special linguistic privileges. Offensive language itself has many different names that have become near synonyms in common usage: swear words, cuss words, curse words, obscenities, expletives or profaniti- More significantly, swear words easily shift grammatical functions. People frequently use a certain f-word as a verb, noun, adjective or interjection. The word can be used for emphasis ("that's so f-ing great") or as a general expletive. And, really, profanity doesn't even have to make sense. Young people especially, are apt to treat profanity as a linguistic playground, combining and creating new words and expressions. Perhaps words like this escape most grammatical regulation because they exist mostly in the speaking realm of English. If the f-word was an acceptable word to use in formal writing, it may not have the wide variety of meanings and usages that it boasts today. Merriam-Webster's online dictionary (www.mw.com) catalogs several different applications/definitions of the word—it's worth looking up, if only to laugh at the serious way the dictionary treats this casually-used word. Offensive language plays a significant role in society and personal identity. Cussing, as a form of slang, can act as a tool of in-group communication. Alternately, not cussing or swearing can act much the same way. Most people are marginally aware that they swear only in certain situations, with certain people. Some kind of internalized filter prevents us (and, we suspect, many of you) from intentionally swearing in the presence of authority, respected elders or young people. The same filter works on most forms of writing: swearing is not nearly as meaningful or expressive on paper as it is in the spoken form. And only some written forms are off limits — we used the word "bitch" in our first column without fear of repercussion, and profanity certainly has a place in the Internet's relaxed environment. Swearing is, in some ways, a "cop-out." The more linguistically-conservative argue people who use profanity aren't using the English language to its potential (this is a mom's favorite argument against swearing—followed by a bar of soap). It's true: profanity is not an expectant creative expression of feelings. But that's not to say that swearing is a static, restricted category of grammar. Just as the definition of profanity has changed, so have profane words themselves. Words like "bitch" are constantly moving in and out of appropriate use, as activist movements try to reclaim negative vocabulary and people grow more accepting of certain linguistic choices. "Zounds" and "Gadzooks" have lost their street cred as meaningful and offensive words. Some of today's strongest offensive language is likely to go through a similar loss. Even so, profanity holds power. It is defined by its capacity to offend, and offend it does: standards of grammar and people alike. Benson is a Grand Island, Neb. senior in English and music. Stewart is a Wichita senior in English LETTER TO THE EDITOR Director's quote in Nielsen's column taken out of context I have no comment about the content of the column "Affirmative action not fair, it's racist," by Arrah Nielsen. What disturbed me was the quote used in the article. Last year the Office of Multicultural Affairs organized a panel to talk about articles that Nielsen and another Kansan opinion writer wrote. There are many things that are wonderful about the University of Kansas. From the academic success of our students to the diversity of our student body, the University of Kansas is an institution that offers us all an experience that can be challenging and rewarding at the same time. Part of the mission of the Office of Multicultural Affairs is to provide all students with resources, programs and education that is grounded in the academic mission of the University and one that is inclusive. This panel was designed to bring individuals together so that we could begin dialogue on thoughts, ideas, perceptions, and beliefs that students have regarding issues like affirmative action and race. The idea was then to move beyond dialogue so that individuals could express themselves and not be judged on what they write or what they believe. This is the very core of the OMA and MRC (Office of Multicultural Affairs and the Multicultural Resource Center) — inclusive offices that have the mission to serve all students with respect, dignity, open-mindedness, appreciatio, and understanding. The opinion written by Nielsen refers to the issue of affirmative action and a "color blind" system. She quoted my comment at the panel, "Today we proved that race does matter, that we still see color and people will judge us by our color of our skin." I do believe that some people do see color and judge individuals by the color of their skin, but using this comment for the purpose of her article was totally taken out of context. The comments I made before this one were that the panel was so valuable because it brought students together to discuss values that people had about pertinent issues, and that the program itself meant that we are making progress. As an individual I feel no need to respond to opinions of students. Those opinions should always have a voice at a place of higher learning, but as the director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs I know that to some of us, the University of Kansas is a place that is rich in diversity and free from many issues that separate us as a community. Of course things take place at KU that remind us that "people see color," like Ms. Nielsen articles often do, but there are hundreds and thousands of students at KU, all different, all unique, sharing the common value of being a Jayhawk. The Office of Multicultural Affairs sees progress, we know that race matters and we address it through our programs and education, but when we talk about race, ethnicity or culture we mean that of everyone, all Jayhawks, and we stand behind that principle. So I strongly believe that Nielsen should continue to write about her beliefs. I would challenge her to write about the inequities associated with privilege, thus showing that she really does believe in a "fair" and "color blind" society. But most importantly I would like to thank her for reminding me to make sure that I communicate to our campus community what we are all about, that is, "In the OMA and MRC, race doesn't matter." Robert N. Page, JR Director, Office of Multicultural Affairs Don'tautomatically assume tuition increase is negative "What? There is a tuition increase? I am tired of increasing tuition. I do not need to pay any more money. I already pay enough." Sound familiar? Almost every student agrees. Have you thought about where those tuition dollars are going and how it directly benefits you? The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is proposing a college specific tuition and before you jump on the bandwagon opposing a tuition increase, take a minute to educate yourself on what this plan actually is. The particular tuition proposal calls for a campus-wide renovation program which would include a new natural sciences building The one distinguishing factor in this tuition proposal is that students will have a significant role in the planning of the new facilities. In recent history, this has not been the case with the construction of buildings. For once, students can provide input on the way in which their funds are being utilized. Decisions regarding architecture plans, classroom designs, and location of renovations will be made by students. CORRECTION The Board of Regents will ultimately decide on this proposal in June, but the choice of whether or not to take this proposal to that level is dependent upon student support. How the measure of student support will be taken has yet to be decided, but this could include a student referendum, departmental student votes, or other means of determining student support. Here is the catch: Students must be informed before they can make a reasonable decision on this proposal. Before you join the ranks of the opposed, at least discover what you are opposing. and a new Wescoe Hall. Tuition would be phased in during three years, eventually resting at $30 per credit hour on all CLAS courses. Twenty percent of this money would go to need-based financial aid — ensuring students would not be priced out of their education. Marynall Jones, Dallas junior, member of the CLAS student advisory board According to Brenda Maigaard, director financial aid, the column "Everyone has stake in tuition hike" in Wednesday's The University Daily Kansan, inaccurately reflected KU Tuition Grants. The column stated that the KU Tuition Grant fails to provide funds for two-thirds of the people eligible for the grant. But all KU students who met the eligibility criteria have been awarded the KUTG each year, including 2004-05, Maigaard said. She says many students who applied after the March 1, 2004 priority date also received a tuition grant for 2004-05. 49 letter to the editor or a column, e-mail the document to opinion@kansan.com with your name, hometown, year in school or position and phone number.

CSW NEWS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 19.2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5A Legal Services for Students provides student relief BY LAURA FRANCOVIGLIA francoviglia@kansan.com KANSAN SVFF WINTER Legal Services for Students is celebrating its 25th year of providing legal aid to students. The organization helps students with a wide variety of legal problems, such as alcohol offenses, speeding tickets, minor in possession and driving under the influence violations, and taxes, said Jo Hardesty, director and managing attorney of Legal Services for Students. "You name it, we have a little bit of everything." Hardies said. When students don't have legal problems, they can spend their time worrying about their classes instead, said Bill Larzalere, staff attorney at Legal Services for Students. "What we we're doing is allowing them to focus on why they're here, and that's why they go to school," he said. Larzalere said the organization's main purpose was to advise students. Though the organization's attorneys couldn't represent students in small claims court, they could help students make all necessary preparations and complete all documentation. "We probably give more advice than litigation at this point," Larzalere said. Larzalere said disputes between landlords and tenants were the most common problems. These disputes usually came up in the fall, when students received their security deposits back. Every student pays a $7 per semester activity fee, which funds the program and its four full-time attorneys. The organization is funded by students and overseen by the Student Senate Legal Services Advisory Board. "It's like a legal insurance policy that you hope you don't have to use," Hardesty said, "but it's there if you need it." Services at the organization are free. If students wanted to Hardesty said the attorneys and eight law school interns acted as advocates for students. use attorneys in the community. Hardesty said the lowest price was about $80 per hour. She said the Legal Services for Students office had 102 appointments available each week during the fall and about 20 more in the spring, partly because of tax season. Larzalez said tax season, the first five months of the year, was the busiest for Legal Services for Students. Graduate students were the top users of the services, Hardesty said. Senior students were second, while younger students used legal services the least. She attributed the high usership among older students to the fact that they took out leases on houses and car loans more often. "The older you get, the more likely you are to get in legal entanglements." Hardesty said. The organization is under fee review this year, meaning that the Student Senate Campus Fee Review Subcommittee will look at the organizations budget. If the committee sees the organization needs more funding, a referendum could go through Student Senate elections in the spring, said Angela Raab, member of the Student Senate Legal Service Advisory Board and Shawnee senior. More funding could mean the organization could do more outside the office for students, Raab said, also a member of the subcommittee. Larzalere said he wanted students to know Legal Services for Students existed, and they could talk with an attorney or law student regardless of whether they were going to pursue legal action. "Everything they tell is confidential," he said. As part of its celebration, the organization has a new logo and a new slogan: Good advice is closer than you think. Legal Services for Students is the on-campus legal advising organization for students. Students may call 864-5665 or stop by the organization's office in 312 Burge Union to make appointments. — Edited by Ashley Doyle LEGAL SERVICES FOR STUDENTS INFORMATION Legal Services for Students offers the following services: Advice and consultation on most legal matters.

Source: Legal Services for Students Interactive wildlife educational event offers 'the real thing' BY MATT FOSTER editor@kansan.com SPECIAL TO THE KANSAN At a time when humans and animals alike are searching for a safe and warm place to hole up for the winter, a few humans, and lots of animals, are coming out for the sake of wildlife education. winter, Marty Birrell, director of the Nature Center, said. "Winter on the Prairie" is an interactive wildlife education event organized by University of Kansas graduate students in the museum studies program and is hosted by the Prairie Park Nature Center. 2730 Harper St. People do not interact with nature as much as they used to, and this situation worsens for Lawrence residents during the "Historically, people have moved out of situations where they are in contact with nature," Birrell said. "Around here, people stay inside when it's cold. We're not a winter recreation culture here in Kansas." According to a postcard that students distributed, "Winter on the Prairie" is an opportunity for families to "learn about the 'critters' of Kansas and what happens to them during the coldest part of the year." The 14 graduate students in the museum public education class are organizing the event. in the Natural History Museum and Biodiversity Research Center, because the University's collection is well respected around the nation. He said the collection was used by scholars but generally ignored by the public. He emphasized the importance of educating children. "Museums and events like this play an important role." Berger said. "It's a first chance to peak an interest in a child. If you get kids into nature and science early, it's more likely they will be conscious of it as adults." Berger said a museum public education class organized only one of these events during the semester and that the whole curriculum was designed around these types of educational events. John Simmons, museum studies program coordinator, said students in the class were learning how to interpret museum collections and research, and how to translate that information into a medium the public could use. He said public education was an important responsibility of museum workers "Our goal is to produce citizens that make educated decisions about environmental issues," Simmons said. "Since the public owns the collection, we have a responsibility to share it with the public." The Center has a display about the impact of humans on the environment which centers around a snapping turtle that was deformed after getting trapped in a plastic six-pack oring. It also has exotic animals such as a caiman — a small crocodile-like creature, a boa, a macaw, a scorpion and insects from India and Australia. Burrell said that "Winter on the Prairie" would have live animal demonstrations of the red-tailed hawk, the turkey vulture, the barred owl, the gray tree frog, box turtle and a snake. Berger said the event, which is scheduled to take place from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Nov.21, would also have six other activities for children and adults as well as Prairie snacks and beverages. The public should not rely just on the Internet or The Discovery Channel for wildlife education, Simmons said. He said that information from these sources was often misleading or inaccurate. "In general, the average kid knows more about nature than ever before, but unfortunately not everything he knows is accurate." Simmons said. He stressed the importance of a hands-on learning experience to those who would rather spend the winter curled up in front of a warm television or computer monitor. "They don't know what they're missing until they come see it," Simmons said. "Which would you rather see? The real thing or someone's imagined version? We've got the real stuff." - Edited by Neil Mulka KANSAS WOMEN'S BASKETBALL 2004-05 NEW SEASON NEW COACH ALWAYS KU KU vs TEXAS-ARLINGTON SUN.

She has little free time, but manages to schedule in her Gameboy Advance. "I like anything Mario," Lewis, McPherson sophomore, said. "It suits my attention span." Lewis and other college students on a budget will buy electronic equipment this holiday season. Lawrence store employees agree that students have different tastes but popular items include digital cameras, MP3 players and DVDs. Value does not always equal quality, however. "A lot of students come in when they're on a budget," said Brian Adkins, department manager for Target, 3201 Iowa St. "I wouldn't spend anything less than $200 on a digital camera." He said even though cheaper products may be enticing, brand names tend to last longer. "If you haven't heard of the name it tends to be a little sketchy," Adkins said. "I would buv on quality." John Kiefer attributed differences in pricing to full-service, discount. Internet and refurbished merchandise. He is president of Kief's AudioVideo Inc.. 2429 Iowa St., and Kief's Downtown Music, 823 Massachusetts St. "Value is when you get what you pay for," Kiefer said. "Everything we sell we offer four prices." He said the full-service price was for brand new merchandise and discount stores such as Wal-Mart and Target offered discount merchandise because it had been refurbished. He said a consumer could not compare prices by model numbers because no matter how many times they are repaired, the model numbers would never change. Kiefer said every discount store wrote down the full service price then put a slash through it before selling it to a customer. Students compare prices of merchandise on the Internet but the same model number does not equal the same quality, he said. He said discount stores were the biggest buyers of refurbished merchandise. SpongeBob SquarePants Other consumers looking for deals turn to the Internet for the cheapest price but the cheapest price is not the greatest value, Kiefer said. "After we've collected the numbers we don't know what to do with them," Kiefer said. No matter where students decided to shop, Lawrence Popular items include X-Box and Playstation games, DVDs and MP3 players. Adkins said. store employees said a few items were at the top of everyone's wish list. He said Sex and the City and Friends were the most popular DVD boxed-sets among students. College men prefer Halo 2, Grand Theft Auto and NCAA sports games, Adkins said. The MP3 players such as iPods, iPod Minis and Sony Digital Music Players attract students' attention. iPod Minis are the cheapest of the three, currently priced $249.99 at Target. "As far as the CD players, the technology is about the same," Adkins said. He said the stores biggest day in sales would be the day after Thanksgiving but students usually bought larger items such as televisions and DVD players during the fall when they moved in. Target will be open three hours longer than usual, from 6 a.m. and to 11 p.m. the day after Thanksgiving. Best Buy employees said they couldn't comment for the story. Illustration by Jeremy Monken/KANSAN Wal-Mart believes students have different tastes so the store will prepare for the holiday season by stocking up on everything, said Karen Burk, Wal-Mart spokeswoman. "We think MP3 players are really popular this year as they're downloading music," Burk said. "I think it's a very clean look as far as the picture," Burk said referring to the new screens. "A lot of college students want to have TVs in their rooms." Burk said other popular items among students included digital cameras, DVD players, laptop computers and televisions with liquid crystal display monitors and screens. She said she could not recommend brands. "We offer all of the brand names and also private label brands to fill a void in pricing and value," Burk said. "They can do so at a price within their range." Burk anticipates Shrek 2, Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban and Spider-Man 2 to be the biggest DVD sales this holiday season. "Anytime it's a draw at the theater we anticipate that to be reflected in DVD sales," Burk said. - Edited by Neil Mulka STATE Charge in Kemp case now capital murder OLATHE — Prosecutors paved the way Thursday for a possible death penalty trial for a man accused of the poolside killing of a Kansas teenager. A first-degree murder charge against Benjamin Appleby, 29, was upgraded to capital murder. He is accused of killing and trying to rape 19-year-old Ali Kemp of Leawood. The new charge makes it possible for prosecutors to seek the death penalty, though Johnson County District Attorney Paul Morrison would not say what his plans were. Prosecutors have five days from a suspect's arraignment to indicate their intent to seek the death penalty. An arraignment hearing has not been set for Appleby, who made his first appearance in court Thursday by video. Appleby, who is being held on $1 million bond, did not enter a plea during the hearing. He does not yet have a lawyer but told the judge he was looking for a private attorney. Kemp's father discovered his daughter strangled June 18, 2002. She was found in the pump room of the community pool where she worked, about 10 miles from here, in a suburb of spacious homes and prim lawns. The murder was Lewood's first in years and one of only a handful in its history.

EXPANSION: Regents approve proposed housing cost increase CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A The update changed both required scores to 50. Ed Hammond, president of Fort Hays State University and spokesman for the State University Council of Presidents, said he expected more changes to the test policy in the future. The Regents will discuss a report from the Northwest Education Resource Center in future meetings. In the report, a consultant made 36 recommendations to improve higher education funding, including state universities and community colleges. Throughout this semester, nearly all items have been approved on the Board's agenda. That is not unusual for the Board, Wolff said. "It's a lot of things for the Regents to tackle, but it's a good place to start," said Katie Wolff, Shawnee senior and Senate legislative director. As for any issues Student Senate wanted on the agenda that never made it, Munch said nothing had really ever come up. PROPOSED INCREASES FOR STUDENT HOUSING "It shows the system works.' Munch said. There is a great amount of discussion on the issues before the actual meeting and the Regents know what's going in, she said.

Edited by Anna Clovis Source: Kansas Board of Regents agenda TIP-OFF: Vermont coach says playing Kansas will be difficult "We look at this as a chance to win the National Championship," Miles said. "It's here, we've only got about 16 games left in the fieldhouse. We've got to feel it." CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A Some students were so excited for the season-opener that they started camping out Sunday night after the Washburn game to get the best seats for tonight's game. a car bomb and a classroom that held flight plans and instructions on shooting down planes, according to a CNN crew embedded with the U.S. Army. Gunbattles still flared in Fallujah as troops hunted hold-out insurgents five days after the military said its forces had Laurence Cooley, a member of the group "I Will Crush You" slept outside of Allen Fieldhouse on Sunday night. Campers officially started camping at 6 on Monday morning, but Cooley wanted to get a head start. Cooley is just one of the thousands of students who will cram into Allen Fieldhouse tonight to see the Jayhawks in their season opener. Cooley said he wanted to be part of every game in the Jayhawks' run to the National Championship. "We wanted to do it because it is the first game of the season and we are the No. 1 fans on campus," Cooley, Ardmore, Okla., freshman, said of his group. Cooley said it was worth it because "I Will Crush You" was No. 1 on the roll call list at midafternoon yesterday and could have first choice for seating tonight. "We have the best team in the nation." Cooley said. "With the four seniors and the freshman talent, there is no reason that we shouldn't win the National Championship." That places Vermont among some of the most notable basketball schools in the country. "You look at some teams they got more votes than and you think this will be a very opener, which it will be." Self said. The Jayhawks may be the preseason favorite, but tonight's opponent, Vermont, is ranked 37th in the nation in the Associated Press poll. The Catamounts are coming off their second NCAA tournament appearance and are favored to win the America East conference again this year. Taylor Coppenrath, Vermont forward, joins Simien and Langford on the John Wooden Award preseason All-America Team and the Naismith Award Preseason Top 50, two of the top awards given to the nation's best men's basketball players. Vermont coach Tom Brennan said playing the No.1 team in the country was a huge challenge for his team in its season opener as well. "I hope our kids are ready to come into Allen Fieldhouse and play," Brennan said. "It is one of the top 10 best places to play in the country." CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A CAR: Driver walks away from car crash into front of building car turned west and then south again on Massachusetts Street. Dave Strano, Lawrence resident, estimated that the driver sped between 45 and 50 miles per hour before a police car attempted to stop him. Ward said the man was speeding in excess of the speed limit, but he was not sure how fast he was driving. Strano estimated there were 12 police cars at the scene. No ambulances were called, and the driver walked away from the incident. A separate raid near the suspected command center uncovered a bomb-making workshop where an SUV registered in Texas was being converted into Jordanian terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, and a U.S. general expressed confidence the battle for the city has "broken the back of the insurgency." "He sat there on the curb for like 20 minutes," Strano said. Ward said the driver had no injuries. Martin John Donaghy was booked into the Douglas County Jail a few minutes before 2 a.m. "We asked him to leave. He was charged with operating under the influence, reckless driving, a stop light violation, three stop sign violations and driving without headlights. then he started giving me this death stare." Strano recognized the driver from a show he left at The Bottleneck about 12:15 a.m. but he did not know what had led up to the chase. The driver demanded free whiskey and was kicked out of Adam Taylor Bottleneck employee U.S. soldiers find center for followers of terrorist the venue around 12:30 a.m. said Adam Taylor, Bottleneck employee. WORLD The damage at The Bottleneck is estimated at $1,500. Ward said the amount of damage at the J. Gladman Gallery was unknown. He said the driver pulled up in front of the establishment about 10 minutes later and parked his car in the middle of the street. Taylor said the man threw a brick through the front window of The Bottleneck. Taylor tried to jump into the passenger-side window to stop the driver but fell to the ground as he sped off. "Our manager told him no," Taylor, Lawrence resident, said. "We asked him to leave then he started giving me this death stare." BAGHAD, Iraq — U.S. troops sweeping through Fallujah yesterday found what appeared to be a command center used by followers of - Edited by Anna Clovis occupied the entire city 40 miles west of Baghdad. One U.S. Marine and one Iraqi soldier were killed, U.S. officials said. At a base outside Fallujah, Lt. Gen. John Sattler, commander of the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force, said the U.S. casualty toll in the Fallujah offensive stood at 51 dead and about 425 wounded. An estimated 1,200 insurgents have been killed, with about 1,025 enemy fighters detained, the military says. Sattler told reporters he felt the U.S.-led attack had dealt a serious blow to the insurgency. "We feel right now that we have, as I mentioned, broken the back of the insurgency. We've taken away this safe haven," Sattler said, adding that insurgents had scattered elsewhere in Iraq where they lacked the resources available in their former stronghold. Iraqi authorities said they arrested 104 suspected insurgents in a raid in Baghdad. The Associated Press ALEXANDRA CLOSEY Take your first step into the real world.

Tomorrow the team must face rival Missouri, which is still in the running to win the Big 12 North. Missouri has the best defense in the Big 12 Conference, giving up 288 yards per game. That does not bode well for the Jayhawks, who have the worst defense statistically in the conference giving up 308.5 yards per game. The Jayhawks have struggled on the road with no Big 12 road victories in coach Mark Mangino's three year tenure. For Kansas to win, it must stop Missouri junior quarterback Brad Smith, the team's second leading rusher with just under 500 yards this season. The Kansas defense shut him down last season limiting JUF Smith to 100 yards of offense. But with the Jayhawks on the road and understaffed at the quarterback and running back positions, look for the Tigers to win. Edge: Missouri Offensive Line The Kansas offensive line has struggled with creating holes for the running backs. The team is averaging 2.7 yards per carry. Missouri has done a great job allowing Smith and junior running back Damien Nash to run. Nash is averaging more than five yards per carry. The Missouri offensive line has also done a better job protecting its quarterback, allowing 15 sacks. Kansas has allowed 21. The Kansas offensive line will have a lot to handle with one of the best pass rushes in the Big 12. Edge: Missouri Running Back Missouri's running back situation has been a mess lately. Missouri coach Gary Pinkel gave his star running back, Damien Nash, an indefinite suspension for comments Nash made to a newspaper. row. Enter junior Clark Green. Green has seen more playing time after losing some excess weight he gained during the summer and because Randle has been injured. Edge: Missouri Wide Receiver Wide Receiver Kansas junior wide receiver Mark Simmons caught eight passes for 135 yards last week against Texas. Both teams have balanced receiving corps. Kansas has seven players with more than 10 catches this season. Simmons and senior wide receiver Brandon Rideau lead the group with 43 receptions each. The two have combined for more than 1,000 yards and nine touchdowns. Missouri junior wide receiver Sean Coffey could be a challenge to Kansas' secondary. Coffey has 513 yards receiving and eight touchdowns. Coffey averages 16.5 yards per catch. Missouri may hold back in throwing long passes because of Kansas. Kansas sophomore cornerback Charles Gordon. Even with Gordon's coverage in mind, the Missouri receivers should be successful. Edge: Missouri Quarterback KANSAS Smith started the season as a Heisman candidate but has struggled throughout the season. Smith has struggled to run this season and his passing has become less effective. Junior Brian Luke should be Kansas' starting quarterback. Luke had considerable playing time last week, throwing for 225 yards and a touchdown. This week, he has prepared in practice to start a game for the first time since coming to Kansas. As a backup, he took no more than 15 snaps a day in practice. This week he's had far more. Luke should perform better than he did against Texas. Smith is suffering but is still a game-changer. Edge: Missouri Secondary Secondary The Kansas secondary is the best in the Big 12 in intercep- Brian Luke photos by Jeff Jacobsen/KUAC Nick Reid 7 ing per game compared to Kansas with nearly 225 yards per game. Despite the yard- a g e allowed, t h e Jayhawks are a threat to intercept a pass. Edge Kansas Linebackers Missouri's defense is No.1 in the Big 12, but there is no denying with the defensive success Kansas has had. The KU defense has a dangerous quartet of junior linebackers. Junior Nick Reid leads the pack and is second in the Big 12 in tackles with 103. As a group, Kansas' top three tacklers at linebacker average 21.7 tackles per game. Kansas has 19 sacks and Missouri has 21. Missouri's sophomore defensive end Brian Smith and junior defensive lineman C.J. Mosley are two of the best pass rushers in the conference. Smith has is tied for No. 1 in the conference in sacks with six and has 44 tackles. Mosley has 5.5 sacks with 30 tackles. Junior defensive end Jermail Ashley and senior defensive end David McMillan both have four sacks and lead the team. In stopping the run, Kansas has done a better job than Missouri, allowing just 3.6 yards per carry compared to Missouri's 4.2. The Tigers probably will not defend the run that often because the Jayhawks will be without Randle. With the ability of Kansas to stop the run, the edge goes to Kansas. Edge: Kansas Special Teams Kansas has relied on its special teams to keep it in several games this season. Its kickoff coverage ranks third in the Big 12, and its point-after-touchdown kicking has improved since freshman kicker Scott Webb took over the role. Senior kicker Johnny Beck has become a consistent, successful kicker. Missouri's kickoff coverage is 10th in the Big 12 and falls short of Kansas in its own kick returns. Fde: Kenange Yesterday on Jim Rome's radio show, the angry listener from Portland commented on Mangino's weight. Edge: Kansas Coaches Last week, Brad Smith's father, Phillip, called Jason Whitlock's radio program to ridicule Pinkel's ability to call games and the way he makes — or doesn't make — adjustments throughout the game. The worst Mangino's critics can do is ridicule superficial characteristics. Pinkel has a group of people who criticize his coaching. Mangino has done more with this team than most had expected, while Pinkel has been unable to coach an underachieving team.

Though the game seemed to promise a competitive game, Eleven Twenty-Two breezed to a 10-1 victory. Eleven Twenty-Two isn't just a random number. It's the address of the team members' house at 1122 Ohio St., where the team practices for intramural floor hockey. Practice paid off Wednesday, and Eleven Twenty-Two came out ready to play, with Dan Triemert, Overland Park freshman, scoring easily to start the game. For the rest of the first period, the action was back and forth as both teams dived, smashed sticks and managed to bump into each other plenty. Eleven Twenty-Two's Sammy Dorf, Chicago sophomore, scored late in the first period, making it 2-0 at the break. Dorf opened the second period with another score, assisted by a pass straight out of The Mighty Ducks. "That's going to be on the highlight reel," his teammates yelled from the bench. Dorf and other members of Eleven Twenty-Two followed with three more goals before the period ended, bringing the score to 6-0 at the end of the second period. Eleven Twenty-Two's goalie, Overland Park sophomore Mike Schwartz earned his teammates' praise for allowing nothing past him. Fans, a rarity at most intramural games, showed up during the second period to support Eleven Twenty-Two, and they also commented on Schwartz's outstanding performance. "Their goalie is the man," said Chris Martin, Leawood freshman and former ice hockey teammate of Schwartz and Triemert. Eleven Twenty-Two put two more points on the board at the start of the third period before Team High Class finally found an answer. With a few minutes left in the period, Team High Class's Zach Friedlander, Chicago freshman, scored, putting up his team's first point to make the score 8-1. Members of Eleven Twenty- Two good-naturely razzed Schwartz for allowing the goal. Shouts of "You're losing your touch!" came from the crowd. Eleven Twenty-Two answered with a goal a few seconds later, then added another for good measure, making the final score 10-1. Martin and other fans supporting the team joked around about the victory. Winning a playoff game isn't where the team's ambition ends, though. "We worked hard, and our effort really paid off," Dorf said. "We won't be happy until we win the championship." All team members echoed this sentiment. Championship games for intramural volleyball and floor hockey will be Monday, Nov. 22, starting at 8:10 p.m. at the rec center. ATROL K SYSTEMS ER P RIN VLHOT Team High Class member Dawid Stern, Minneapolis, Minn, sophomore, and Eleven Twenty-Two team member Brandon Davis, Birmingham, Ala., freshman, fight for the ball during their floor hockey game Wednesday night. Edited by Anna Clovis Brian Lewis/KANSAN SCHEDULE: Big 12 tough CONTINUED FROM 12A Joseph's had standout guards Jamee Nelson and Delonte West, but still expect a fight out of coach Phil Martelli's team. St. Joe's started off last season 27-0, going undefeated in the regular season, and won't want to lose its first game of this year. Guard Pat Carroll, who led the Atlantic 10 Conference in three-point shooting, has a separated shoulder but might recover in time to take the court against Kansas. Nov. 29, home vs. Nevada The Jayhawks will look for some revenge after last season's disappointing 75-61 loss against the Wolfpack at the Dodge Holiday Classic in Reno, Nev. First-year coach Mark Fox will look to build on last season's success. Nevada defeated Michigan State and Gonzaga to reach the Sweet 16 before falling to Georgia Tech last season. Dec. 4 home vs. Pacific A rematch of last year's second-round NCAA matchup that Kansas won, 78-63. Coach Bob Thomason complained last season about having to play Kansas so close to home in Kansas City, Mo. Allen Fieldhouse shouldn't be any kinder. Jan. 1, home vs. Georgia Tech This looks to be the best home match-up of the year. Not only did Tech defeat Kansas 79-71 in the Elite Eight last season, but the Yellow Jackets are ranked No. 3 in the country in the preseason polls. If Kansas takes care of business in its early-season home games, this could be a nationally televised 1-2 match-up with Kansas looking for payback. Jan. 9, away vs. Kentucky Traveling to tradition-rich Rupp Arena just one week after the Georgia Tech match-up should be a challenge for the Jayhawks. Jan 23, 2012 Willem Jan. 22, away vs. Villanova With a capacity of more than 20,000 in Philadelphia, the Wachovia Center will be a tough venue Kansas as it takes on an improving Villanova team. Second-year coach Five starters return from a team that finished 18-17 last year. Jan. 29, home vs. Texas Texas and Kansas always provide an entertaining game. Many Kansas fans remember forward Nick Collison's 24-point, 23-rebound effort two seasons ago against the Longhorns in a 90-87 Jayhawk victory. Jan 31 home 15 Jan. 29, home vs. Texas Just two days later, Kansas will take center stage on ESPN's Big Monday against Quin Snyder's Missouri squad. The Jan. 31, home vs. Missouri Tigers return only two starters from last season — guard Jason Conley and forward Linas Kleiza — but with the emotion of this rivalry, the game could still depend on the final minutes. Feb. 27, home vs. Oklahoma State These teams could match up with the Big 12 Conference title on the line. The Cowboys return all-Big 12 first team selections guard John Lucas and forward Joey Graham from last season's Final Four team. Coach Eddie Sutton's team defeated Kansas 80-60 in Stillwater, Okla., last season. March 2, home vs. Kansas State For the sixth consecutive season, Kansas will finish its schedule with a game against Mizzou. Kansas has used last-second heroics to win the last two games at Missouri, with former Jayhawk David Padgett hitting a baseline turnaround in the final second to give Kansas an 84-82 victory last season. Senior night promises to be an emotional evening, as fans say goodbye to one of the best classes in Kansas basketball history. Simien, Langford, Miles and Lee will play their last games at home, taking on Kansas State in the 50th anniversary of the first game played at Allen Fieldhouse. March 6, away vs. Missouri STRONG: Football turnaround CONTINUED FROM 12A Edited by Bill Cross ever we can to support them," Marchiony said. Marchiony said that football was a top priority, and has been since the arrival of Athletics Director Lew Perkins and his staff last August. To solidify its support of Kansas football, the Athletics Department has begun fundraising for a planned football-only facility. The department has raised more than $9 million of the estimated $25 to $30 million it will cost to fund the project. The proposed facility has garnered attention recently because of large donations toward its construction. Marchiony said any talk of the facility's location was premature. "Raising the money for the facility comes first. Once that is done, the Athletic Department will meet with the Chancellor and University Administrators to determine the shape and location of it," he said. The facility plans to house all football offices, training areas and provide academic support for the athletes. Marchiony said the addition of such a facility would "help Kansas become a consistent, major player in the Big 12." Regardless of where the facilty goes, the fact Kansas is moving aggressively toward such a project is valuable evidence that the Athletic Department is serious in its commitment to the football program. As compelling as turnarounds are, they are only remembered if they translate into sustained achievement. Glen Mason enjoyed a couple of bowl victories in the early-to-mid '90s, but his bizarre departure and Kansas' subsequent demise virtually overshadow those accomplishments. Mangino is no stranger to turning a program around. Aside from his exploits at Kansas, he has been privy to both major and minor rebuilding jobs at the college level. He was a part of the greatest turnaround in college football history at Kansas State before heading to Oklahoma, where he was offensive coordinator and won a national title in 2000. Bottom line, Mangino knows and has what it takes to be a winner, and he has already started to show it here in Lawrence. So take solace, Jayhawk fans. The future of Kansas football is bright and the turnaround is in full swing. A victory tomorrow and this season will not seem so bad after all.

Matous, a butterfly and freestyle swimmer from Blue Valley North High School, rounds out the recruiting class. She is a member of the Kansas City Blazers club team, and her coach is Pete Malone. "Kendall is another diamond in the rough," Campbell said. "We feel very lucky to have her in our program. She comes to us from the KC Blazers, and Pete Malone has really helped her improve in a short amount of time. Kendall should come in and contend right away." Campbell said that all of the new signees would have the opportunity to make an impact. "Our fall signes represent another chapter in our progression as a team shooting for the Top 25," he said. "They all can come to KU and be a part of that goal immediately." Edited by Marissa Stephenson and Anna Clovis RIGHT: Mavs are experienced CONTINUED FROM 12A The Lady Mavs are led by senior forward Rola Ogunoye, who had a team-high 18 points in the Lady Mavs 74-71 exhibition victory against Houston Wednesday night. Last season, Ogunoye averaged 15.2 points and 7.8 rebounds per game. She was a first team all-conference selection.

She started all but one game last year and averaged 9.4 points and 3.7 rebounds per game. She is Texas-Arlington's all-time assist leader, and has the top-two single season assist records for the Lady Mavs. Last year, the Lady Mavs made a school record 193 three-point shots.

Forward Wayne Simien and guards Keith Langford, Aaron Miles and Mike Lee enter the season knowing there won't be a next year in their collegiate careers. "I would say the hunger level this year is better than it was last year, no doubt about that." coach Bill Self said. The seniors, along with sophomore guard JR. Giddens and a talented freshman class, earned Kansas the No. 1 spot in both major polls. The media has created lofty expectations,but nothing above what the seniors believe they can accomplish. "I believe all four of us have that same mindset," Miles, a guard, said. "We need to work hard to win the national championship." Self said he wouldn't let the team get caught up in the rankings. "Those things are irrelevant early in the season," Self said. "We'll get our guys' attention. We won't let them get hung up on what people have us, because really that is just a great recruiting help." Simien said the players were much more adjusted to Self and his style this season in the coach's second season. "Now that we have a year under our belt, we have a better feel for each other and the system." Simien said. Self said he was pleased with the 2004-05 schedule. "The positive is there's a lot of home games. The negative is that there's a lot of home games," Self said. "The biggest negative I see is that we don't play our first road game until January." The following are some highlights of the 2004-05 schedule: Tonight. home vs. Vermont Season opener against a team that finished 22-9 last season and lost in first round of NCAA tournament to eventual national champion Connecticut.

Recruits to make impact Five signees could help team to Top 25 BY NORA KELLAM nkellam@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER July 1 marks the official date the NCAA permits a college coach to contact a prospective athlete in person off the college campus. On July 2, Kansas swimming and diving coach Clark Campbell was on his way to freshen up the Jayhawks. Campbell went straight to the home of Molly Brammer, one of the top swimming recruits in Missouri. After only a short visit, Brammer made her decision to become a Jayhawk. "As soon as I talked to coach Campbell, I knew KU was where I wanted to be," Brammer said. "I have only heard great things about this program." Brammer is currently a senior at Blue Springs High School, where she swims distance freestyle races and the individual medley. She is also a member of the Kansas City Dolphins club team Brammer's coach, Robert Sturman, is a University of Kansas alumnus. He said Brammer was a privilege to train. "The only way to describe her is old school," Sturman said. "She trains hard, she listens and is a coach-pleaser. KU will be proud to have her." Brammer's talent and strength will add a new dimension to the Kansas team, Campbell said. "She will come in and make an immediate impact in the 500, 1,000 and 1,650 free, as well as the 400 IM," he said. "Molly is also a dynamite student and will really contribute to our program's academic goals as well." In addition to Brammer, four other signees want to make an impact for the Jayhawks next season. Kansas received national letters of intent for the 2005-06 season from Jessica Brozek of Great Bend, Ashley Leidigh of Merriam. "As soon as I talked to coach Campbell. I Molly Brammer Swimming team recruit Rhynn Malloy of Holden, Mass., and Kendall Matous of Overland Park. Brozek joins the team from Great Bend High School and is a member of the Western Kansas Swim Club team. She will swim middle-distance freestyle races at Kansas. Campbell called Brozek a diamond in the rough and was confident of her potential. "Her best swimming is still in front of her, and we feel she will really develop in college," Campbell said. "Her work ethic is second-to-none, and in our environment she will greatly improve. Leidigh attends Shawnee Mission North High School where she swims the butterfly and sprint freestyle races. She is also a member of the Kansas City Dolphins. Campbell will call on Leidigh to fill the hole senior Amy Gruber will leave next season. "Ashley was one of the most improved swimmers in our region last year," Campbell said. "It is going to be exciting watching Ashley develop into one of the top swimmers in the Big 12." Malloy is currently a swimmer at Wachusett Regional High School, where she swims the breaststroke and individual medley events. She is a member of the Magnus Aquatic Group club team, and her coach is Don Lemieux. "Rhynch is simply one of the most gifted breaststrokers I have ever recruited.

DAVIS III fdavis@kansan.com Kansas football going strong Last Saturday's heartbreak to Texas served as one of the most painful losses in Kansas football history. In fact, the four-point setback is only the latest among a host of narrow defeats that have defined the 2004 campaign. Sure, the Jayhawk's 3-7 record is not a reliable indication of how good this team actually is. Offensive deficiency and inopportune defensive lapses have attributed to Kansas' ninth consecutive losing season. However, do not let the agony of this season make you think that Kansas football has regressed from last year's unexpected success. Thinking such a notion would cloud the reality that Kansas football is in the midst of a turnaround that has invigorated an otherwise stagnant program. To fully appreciate the depth of such a turnaround, one must familiarize with the futility that has cloaked Kansas football. As Kansas concludes its 115th season tomorrow, the Hawks stand a mere two games above 500 through 1,112 games. Since 1890, they have been to nine bowl games and last won a conference championship in 1968 as a member of the Big 8. Since the Big 12 formed in 1996, only Baylor's conference record of 6-65 is worse than Kansas' 16-55. Outside of such football greats as John Hadl, John Riggins, Gale Sayers and a couple of Orange Bowls, Kansas football has been traditionally bad. A turnaround has been in order for some time. It finally started in 2002 with football coach Mark Mangino. Mangino and his staff arrived in Lawrence to a program going nowhere and an Athletic Department in disrepair. Now in year three, with a bowl berth, victory over Kansas State and a tenacious commitment from a revamped Athletics Department, Kansas football is moving in the right direction. Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director. agrees. "Coach Mangino and his staff are doing an excellent job building a football program and we need to do what SEE STRONG ON PAGE 9A Righting their wrongs Jayhawks learn from exhibition mistakes before regular season begins BY BJ RAINS brains@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The exhibition season has come and gone for the women's basketball team, and now the games are for real. The Kansas Jayhawks begin their regular season against the Texas-Arlington Lady Mavs this weekend. Tip-off is scheduled for 1.p.m. Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse. For Kansas to come away with a victory, it will need to learn from Tuesday night's exhibition defeat against the West Coast All-Stars. "If we don't play any better we will lose on Sunday, and these kids understand that," said Kansas coach Bonnie Henrickson. Some positives can be taken out of the loss. If nothing else, the game's close ending will help the Jayhawks prepare for the pressure of a close game. "That was great late game situation that you can't create in practice. We will look at this and be able to break it down," Henrickson said. "If we learn from our mistakes, and don't make them again, then the game was not for nothing."

Kansas will need to correct those wrongs when Texas-Arlington comes to town. The Lady Mavs return four starters from last year's that finished 19-12. It was first time since the 1981-1982 season that Texas-Arlington had reached the 19-victory mark and only the fifth time in the program's history.

Ruth Anne French, Partridge senior, became one of only 25 students in the University of Kansas' history to win the scholarship Saturday night. The scholarship awards more than $50,000 for two years of study at Oxford University in England. French traveled to St. Paul, Minn., last weekend, where she endured intense 20-minute interviews and waited for three hours while a panel chose the winners. French said her parents taught her the value of sustainable farming practices and preserving natural resources. She said her experiences growing up on a farm had had an impact on her academic interests. FRENCH MONDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 2004 Since she first came to the University, French has done undergraduate research, participated in an alternative winter break and studied abroad for a summer in Cambridge, England, where she studied legal history. "She has accents of things that enhance someone's educational experience," Sue Lorenz, assistant director of the KU honors program and national scholarships coordinator, said. She said French took advantage of opportunities the University offered. "KU is what you make of it, but it may not be as obvious as at smaller schools," French said. "KU has a lot to offer." French said she would attend Oxford next October after graduating from the University in May with a degree in political science. At Oxford, French will pursue a master's of philosophy in comparative politics, focusing on administrative and regulatory law with an emphasis on the environment.

They call it Bonnie Ball. Members of Alpha Phi Omega, the Asian American Student Union, the Black Student Union, First Nation Student Association, Hispanic American Leadership Organization, National Panhellenic Association and Sigma Lambda Beta joined together yesterday for food, laughs and women's basketball. said Rebecca Bailey, program assistant in the Office of Multicultural Affairs. Bonnie Ball, named after first-year women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson, is a series of events hosted by the Office of Multicultural Affairs and the Kansas Athletics Department, which will spotlight different multicultural organizations at each women's game. The Athletics Department is trying to encourage more students to get involved with the women's basketball games, said Jennifer Lange, marketing coordinator for the department. The organizations met for the first Bonnie Ball event on Sunday, with pizza at the Multicultural Resource Center before the game tipped off at 1 p.m. The groups socialized and made banners for their respective organizations. Victoria Li, president of AASU, said she liked that students could gather for something other than formal meetings. "This is the first time we have had a tailgate party for women's basketball." She said the goal of the AASU is to increase the Asian awareness on campus Lange said teaming up with the multicultural office was a natural fit.

School to go beyond grade 'F' THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Wichita State looks to institute 'XF' grade for those caught cheating WICHITA — Students caught cheating or plagiarizing at Wichita State University could soon get slapped with a grade of "XF" on their transcripts. The Student Government Association and the University's Faculty Senate are pushing for the new grade, saying it will add teeth to penalties for cheaters. "It does sound a little bit odd from a faculty member's perspective that students would come forward and say, 'Hey, if I screw up, punish me even more,'" said student senator Sarah McAndrew. "But it's something that if you don't cheat, you don't have to worry about it." Currently, faculty can deal with cheating students by either flanking them in the course or expelling them from the University. But some professors said students can escape any ramifications by dropping the course, if the questionable conduct occurs early enough in the semester. "It's an excellent idea because it calls attention to a real problem," said Faculty Senate President Will Klunder. Since 2000, Kansas State University has used an XF grade, which started at the University of Maryland in the early 1990s. At Kansas State, 46 of the 168 students who have received an XF have chosen not to take that school's reform program, which requires a semesterlong academic course. "I know there are faculty who say, 'Why are you giving them a second chance?'" said Helene Marcoux, associate director of Kansas State's honor system. "It's not about policing and punishing — it's about educating." In most cases, students can get the X part of the grade removed by undergoing some sort of reform program. At Wichita State, students and faculty are suggesting cheaters take an ethics seminar. punishing us about educating. Philosophy professor Dan Russell, however, said students who plagiarize know what they're doing and should have to live with the results. Besides, he questions an ethics course made up of the university's worst students. "Who's going to be the poor instructor who's going to teach the thing?" he said. STATE Adult bookstore protester camps to send a message SALINA — Other than a few "older" women who made obscene gestures as they drove by, a week on the roof of an adult bookstore was mostly a positive experience. Ray Morris said Friday as he prepared to come down from his perch the next morning. The 38-year-old consultant for a Salina cosmetic company spent a week of vacation living on top of the north Salina business to protest local "I can't stress enough that I am not promoting porn," Morris said. "I'm promoting the idea of choice. Everyone has a right to choose whether they want to enter these stores." efforts to have the town's two adult book stores investigated for obscenity. A Salina group wants a grand jury to investigate whether the two stores are promoting obscurity by selling sexually oriented products. A similar petition drive in Abilene resulted in grand jury indictments against the Lion's Den adult bookstore on Interstate 70 west of the city. A petition calling for the grand jury was deemed invalid last week because people who signed it didn't identify their voting precincts. Organizers are starting another signature drive, this time providing a computer database showing people the precinct boundaries. Morris withstood several nights of rain that were made worse by a hole in his tent that caused his belongings and food to get wet. "Dozens have come up said they are glad that someone is doing something," Morris said. "It's been 99 percent positive, and I'm glad I did it, and I'd do it again." The Associated Press Wednesday's University Daily Kansan contained an error. In the article, "Info service overhaul." Alisha Ashley's name was misspelled.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 22. 2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN NEWS 3A While driving home for holidays, watch for deer By AMANDA O'TOLE aootole@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER By the time she saw it, it was too late. Its glowing eyes looked back at Angela Kurowski as she slammed on her brakes and swerved across the two lanes of Highway 59 in Ottawa about three weeks ago. She hit the large buck despite her efforts to slow down. It ran away, but the Swansea, Ill., senior doubted that it got far because of the blood left at the scene. Kuroowski was sore, and her 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee was in bad shape. She's not sure how much it will cost to repair, but three weeks later, her car is still in the shop, with the mangled front end being fixed. Kurowski is one of thousands in Kansas that will be involved in deer-vehicle accidents this year. Last year, more than 9,000 motorists hit deer in Kansas, according to the Kansas Highway Patrol. November is the peak month for car-deer collisions, according to the Kansas Department of Transportation. There have been more than six deer-related accidents on Kansas Highway 10 in the past month. With the likelihood of deer on the roads this week, holiday travelers should be cautious to prevent being in accidents. Deer are in the midst of mating season, which causes the increased amount of sightings near roadways, said David Church, Kansas Department of Transportation bureau chief of traffic engineering. The female deer cross roads without thinking about it, he said, because the bucks are chasing them. Deer also travel together, so a deer on the road could mean one or more will follow. Motorists should slow down as quickly as possible if they see a deer in the road ahead, Church said. If it's too late to slow down, a driver should hit the deer and avoid swerving, he said. Accidents are worse when a car veers off the road and hits a pole, tree or oncoming traffic and when deer go over the vehicle. Drivers should lightly accelerate to elevate the front end of the vehicle. Hitting the brakes would lower the front end, and if DEER SAFETY TIPS David Church of the Kansas Department of Transportation offers these suggestions for avoiding wrecks with deers: ■ Be aware of your surroundings especially around dawn and dusk. ■ Slow down as quickly as possible if you see a deer. ■ If it's too late, slightly the car struck the deer it would have a greater chance of going over the car. Kurowski said she was glad she was driving her Jeep. The size of the vehicle gave her an advantage in the accident. accelerate to lift the front end of your vehicle. Be cautious if you see one, others will probably follow. Do not swerve. Take note of deer crossing signs and slow down while you are driving through those areas. "I'm lucky I didn't get hurt," she said. "There's no wav I Source: Kansas Department of Transportation Transportation could've done anything differ ently. I couldn't avoid it." Most fatalities in car-deer collissions happen when the deer goes over the car and through the windshield. Church said it was important that people slow down and know their surroundings, espe- cically around dusk and dawn when deer are most active. Kuroski's accident happened at about 5:30 p.m. Deer crossing signs are a good indicator that deer could be around. Church said a sign indicated that at least three cardeer collisions happened within a quarter mile of that sign within a year from when it was posted. Kurowski said people needed to pay more attention to deer crossing signs. She didn't notice them much before her accident, but she said she was more aware now. "A lot of people don't realize the damage it can do," she said. "I didn't realize it could happen until I was in the accident."

Beware of dangerous toys Unsafe-toy list out just in time for holiday season THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — A reminder from the government: Check those holiday shopping lists to make sure no recalled children's toys are on them. The Consumer Product Safety Commission compiled its annual top 10 list of children's product safety recalls to coincide with the start of the holiday shopping season. The toys should all be off store shelves. The commission worries that people who did their shopping early might have gifts stashed under the bed that have since been recalled. All the products were recalled in the past year, the commission said. A Nerf football and a Batmobile toy car were among some of the items on the list being released today. The agency received reports of 11 toy-related deaths in 2003 involving children under age 15, down from 13 reported deaths in 2002. Almost half the deaths involved small toy balls that children choked on. The agency also is launching Neighborhood Safety Network, a Web-based grass-roots effort to help spread the word about safety recalls to consumers who may be harder to reach. CPSC Chairman Hal Stratton said the network would put life saving information into the hands of people who need i most. "These messages are posted and passed on in Boys and Girls Clubs, American Indian reservations, fire houses and housing projects," he said. The list of top recalled children's toys and products includes: 398,000 Bumble Bee toys distributed by Graco Children's Products. Graco received 26 reports of antennae breaking off the toys, including five reports of children who started to choke on the broken piece. 294,000 Nerf Big Play Footballs distributed by Hasbro. The football contains a hard plastic interior frame that can pose a risk of facial cuts. Nine incidents of facial injuries have been reported, including eight that required stitches or medical attention. ■ 225,000 Carter's children's mirror books distributed by Kids II Inc. The mirror in the books can crack or break, posing a laceration hazard to children. Kids II has received 26 reports of the mirror cracking or breaking, including four reports of cuts. 314,000 Batman Batmobile toy vehicles distributed by Mattel Inc. The rear tail wings of the Batmobile are made of rigid plastic and come to a point, which poses a potential puncture or laceration hazard. Mattel has received 14 reports of injuries. kansan.com PEPPER SPRAY CANVAS SHOULDER BAGS MR.

It's not that we don't want to like you. We want to like you and be proud that you are our athletics director. We want to appreciate that you left a prime gig at Connecticut to come here and take the Kansas legacy to new levels. But there is a reason why so many students are up in arms over some of your recent actions. Kansas may be one of the finest schools in the nation as far as the passion of the students and the greater community is concerned. That passion though has been arrayed against you. It's not all your fault, mind you: the students can admittedly be a little righteous when it comes to holding on to sacred but outmoded ways of doing things. Honestly, no KU fan is against football having a new building to help make the program into the one of the Big XII powerhouses, but a little tact in how the Athletics Department is presenting this would go a great ways towards easing the concerns of both the students who will walk down Campanile Hill and the ticket holders who want to look out of the Stadium towards a great campus view. We all know that there are basketball programs around the country making lots of money through points systems and such, but dramatically reshifting the seating of instructors and longtime fans while also reducing the student seating requires more than just meeting with faculty boards or the Student Senate. Which is where you come in. You can rise above these controversies and reach out to the students. Which is really all we're asking; that you engage the campus and the community and convince us of the necessity and benefits of your ideas, rather than just going ahead with them regardless. We understand that there are pressing concerns and needs with the Athletics Dept., and that Kansas needs to upgrade itself for the collegiate arms race against the likes of Oklahoma, Nebraska and Texas. But what some may see as the greatest weakness of Kansas, "our traditions" can and should be its greatest strength. We see no reason why the traditions and the fervor of the students cannot go hand in hand with your bold vision for Athletics. You were hired to do a job for the Department, but you represent and serve the University at large. Talk to us, reach out to us, let us know what you are thinking, convince us why we should back you and we will follow you wholeheartedly. And doughnuts while we're waiting in line for tickets wouldn't hurt either. Free for All Call 864-0500 Free for All callers have 20 seconds to speak about any topic they wish.

Fund w nd, university only Lew Zach Stinson/KANSAN Racism, discrimination still exist People tend to avoid dialogue about race because they think that maybe it has gone away or that it will fade if we ignore it. GUEST COMMENTARY It is unfortunate that many people react to issues of race with sweeping generalizations and attacks on the shortcomings of entire peoples. Still others need a coarse reminder that racism and discrimination persist to drive them to action. The Kansan should be a forum for scholarly discussion, so I hope you'll read on as I attempt to shed some light. A racial gap between whites and African Americans in academics does exist. The Journal of Blacks in Higher Education reported that in 1999, 59 percent of white students graduated from NCAA Division I colleges while the graduation rate for African Americans was 38 percent. Some people say this gap is caused by the archaic theory of biological determinism, a theory espoused by Adolf Hitler, which claims that genetic distinctions between African Americans and whites lead to superior cognitive ability in whites. While this gap is certainly significant, it is just as certain that the gap is not caused by inherently poor academic capabilities of African Americans. I blame a historical lack of access to higher education and the effects of systemic discrimination. More than race alone must be considered when trying to find out why this gap exists and how to narrow it. George Lipszit, author of "The Possessive Investment in GUEST COMMENTARY LAURA A. CLARK opinion@kansan.com Whiteness," says that deliberate and systematic efforts throughout history have placed a high value on the white identity, which results in racially exclusionary institutions and racialized law. Sociology of Education, a Publication of the American Sociological Association, reports that few black students attended college in the first half of the 20th century. Enrollment numbers didn't increase until after World War II, and colleges and universities began recruiting "academically promising" African-American high schoolers in the 1960s. In contrast, whites have had access to higher education since Harvard University opened its doors in 1636, a full 229 years before people of African descent were emancipated. We are not far removed from the Jim Crow era, and it would be ludicrous to claim that racism disappeared with the passing of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. If we lived in a world of perfect equality, affirmative action would indeed be racist because it would be unfounded. Affirmative action programs and practices, though imperfect, seek to remedy past injustice Most arguments against affirmative action are based in fallacious assumptions that African Americans and whites interact on a level playing field. For example, the University of Michigan Law School's admissions policies admitted African-American students with lower test scores than whites. The director of admissions stands by the policy because it is in line with a commitment to creating a class "is not merely promising and talented, but interesting and diverse." The United States Supreme Court held that the policy violated no Constitutional rights because the admissions process involved such "individualized review." that race was not a defining characteristic of any application. Surely Barbara Grutter, the white applicant who sued the school, was not mechanically denied admission simply because she was white. And while we're on the subject, the same admissions policy also gave preference to "legacy" applicants—those with familial alumni connections. This policy almost exclusively benefits whites, who have historically had access to higher education, but opponents of affirmative action consistently fail to mention this form of preferential treatment. While I firmly believe in freedom of speech, racism disguised as scholarship with a thin veneer of "research" should find no home in The Kansan. Clark is a Wichita senior in journalism. Traditions important to University Tradition is an important part of any university culture, giving it an appeal that makes it different. However, it seems recently that traditions are less important to the University of Kansas than reputation and prestige. Many of the traditional reasons that students choose this University are changing or disappearing altogether. This university has always been known for its high-quality, affordable education. It draws a wide group of students, who might not otherwise be able to afford a school of this caliber. People are willing to pay the out-of-state price because it is lower than other schools of comparable size and academic standing. This will soon no longer be the case. The proposed tuition increases, designed to keep the university on "equal" grounds with other schools, will deter some students, simply because they cannot afford to attend college here. While there are several reasons for this increase, "keeping up" with other schools is not a valid reason for increasing tuition. COMMENTARY SARAH ZAFAR opinion@kansan.com Some of the most apparent traditions here are the sports programs. A growing football program and a consistently successful basketball tradition, as well as the numerous other sports, are often among the top reasons that students choose to attend school here rather than elsewhere The larger sports programs are inherently corporate. This is inevitable, and some aspects of this corporation mentality affect the fan base more than others. It seems that recently, when making decisions regarding these programs, money and prestige have become more important than the student fan base when deciding what happens. The football program is seeing more success recently than ever before. The new proposals to build a football-only complex may be the logical next step in increasing the program's success, but one of the proposed locations is infringing on a much older tradition, the ceremonial graduation walk down Mt. Oread from the Campanile to Memorial Stadium. It would be a loss of decades of students participating in this ritual if the walk were obstructed by a giant concrete facility that might not only alter the course of the graduation walk, but would forever obscure the beautiful view of the hill and the Campanile. The basketball program, perhaps one of the University's oldest and best-known traditions, should put the fans, especially the student fan base, at the top of the list of priorities when deciding ticket sales and seating. Overselling sports packages to the degree they were sold this year, no matter what the reason, is not putting the interests of the fans first. It only causes panic and resentment among students waiting anxiously in line, puzzled over the changes in the ticket distribution system, and even deterring some students from picking up their tickets at all. Changes in the system should not turn fans away, but should be designed to encourage attendance. Imagine a basketball game without the student section. Without the strong student fan base, the basketball program would not be what it is today. While traditions still remain a large part of the University's culture, it is important to keep in mind their importance as the school grows and changes. Progress is inevitable, and should not be viewed negatively, but it should not become so shortsighted that it cuts out the traditions that keep this University unique.

"He said he was proud of me," Green said. "He told me for four years to run hard and refuse to go down. That's what I did today." Without a chance at a bowl game and with nothing to play for besides pride, the Jayhawks came out and wrecked what was left of the Tigers' season. Missouri began the afternoon with chances at both a bowl bid and the Big 12 North title. By winning the game, Kansas also did something it had not done since 1989: Beat both its rivals, K-State and Missouri, in the same season. The Jayhawks notched their first road conference victory under third-year coach mark Mangino. "I've been part of a conference championship team as an assistant, a national championship team as an assistant, but this ball club and this locker room will probably sit with me for a long time." Mangino said. Powered by Green and fourthstring quarterback Brian Luke, the Jayhawks came out and dominated the Tigers. Luke went 24-of-36 with a touchdown, including stretches through the first and second quarters when he went seven-of-10 and seven-of-seven. Starting for the first time in his career, he threw for 239 yards, 11 more than he had thrown up to that point on the season. He poured it on a Missouri pass defense that had been ranked the best in the Big 12. "Brian Luke is a young man who's had some tough plays here in his career," Mangino said. I've been part of a conference cham- " poinship as an assistant, a national championship team as an assistant, but this ball club and this locker room will probably sit with me for a long time." Mark Mangino Kansas football coach "He's a resilient young man, not to be denied. What an exhibition he put on out there." The other story of the day was a dominating performance by the Kansas defense. All season, the Missouri sophomore quarterback Brad Smith had no more success than those who came before him. defense has kept the Jayhawks in games by stopping star players. This is the second season in a row that Kansas has stopped the highly-touted Smith cold, but junior linebacker Nick Reid insists that the team does not know anything special about Smith. "We approach every game the same," Reid said. "We try and stop the run every game. If we do that, we're going to have success, and we've been able to do that." Reid and the defense managed to keep Smith from getting anywhere on the ground. He accumulated -41 yards, on the way to a team rushing total of -6. The Jayhawks hadn't held a team to negative rushing yardage since doing so against Kansas State in 1992. Also starring on defense was sophomore cornerback Charles Gordon. Gordon pulled in another interception to keep a share of the NCAA lead. He is tied with Chris Harris of Louisiana-Monroe for the lead, with seven. "Our defense was outstanding today," Mangino said. "They made a lot of big plays." Notes: Senior wide receiver Brandon Rideau came up just two catches short of tying the all-time record for receptions at Kansas. Rideau had 131 catches in his Kansas career. Junior receiver Mark Simmons moved into fifth place. Kansas had 19 interceptions this season, the most since the 1987 team, which had 23. - Edited by Ryan Greene BALL: Multicultural groups hope to increase attendance CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A culturally, socially and politically. "It's such a diverse school," Li, Overland Park junior, said. "Students get together because they're proud to show it." Her organization has more than 45 active members. AASU creates a home for students who can relate to each other, she said. Jocelyn Weir was excited to participate in the dribble/lay-up drill contest. Members from each organization took the court during halftime. Wehr represented Alpha Phi Omega, a co-ed service fraternity with almost 20 members. The Inspirational Gospel Chorus sang the national anthem and Unity, a hip-hop dance group, performed at halftime. "The multicultural offices have access to students that we don't have access to," she said. Contests and recognitions. such as the halftime contest, are designed to keep organizations involved and increase game attendance. Lange said. For its part, the Office of Multicultural Affairs just wants to show its support, said Robert Page, director of the office. Page said more students would attend women's games as the team improved. The next Bonnie Ball game, on Dec. 8, will be Greek night with a performance from the STEP team, and Jan. 22 will be Spirit Night. - Kansan staff writer Nikola Rowe contributed to this story. RHODES: Application process long CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A — Edited by Ryan Greene French said she planned to work for a nonprofit group or public-interest think tank after her time at Oxford and eventually become a law school faculty member. French said the application process, which began last April, had been time consuming. Even before she began the application process, she had to be nominated by a University committee, of which Lorenz was a member. She then had to apply for the scholarship and send an essay, cover letter, letters of recommendation and a résumé. One of French's eight letters of recommendation came from Donald Worster, distinguished professor of history and French's mentor for the past three years. Worster said French had done research with him in the past and that she would be teaching a class with him in the spring about agriculture and world history. He said he was excited when he heard that French had been chosen as a Rhodes Scholar. "She's probably just on cloud nine," Worster said. DATE: Auction donations benefit bacterial meningitis survivor — Edited by Paige Worthy CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A "She's much more attractive than I am," he said. The date auction was organized and hosted by the Scholarship Hall Leadership Development Program. All the money raised will be donated to a fund supporting Andy Marso, a Pearson Scholarship Hall resident recovering from bacterial meningitis. Marso is a University of Kansas alumnus and former Kansan staff member. More than 100 students packed the Kansas Room of the Kansas Union Saturday night. With bids starting at $10, 15 students, four of them in pairs, were auctioned off for a total of $1,720. The amount of money students were willing to bid varied. Nick Gill, Jola junior, said he did not set a limit. Kevin Robertson, Pittsburg freshman, was a little more cautious with his money. "I'll bid whatever it takes," he said. I was glad to do anything ] He said he had about $70, but was willing to give more if checks were accepted. He also had the pressure of deciding whom to bid for. "I'm kind of dating someone," he said. "I'm supposed to bid on her, but I'm not required to." Seth Weisbrook was the winning bidder for Bainum — sort of. A total of 12 people pooled together to win her, said Weisbrook, Columbia, Mo., junior. Weisbrook actually only put in $40. could do to help Andy, he said. Supporting Marso was the common theme at the auction. "It's great they decided to do it for Andy." Unger said. Unger said he and Andy were friends after coming to the Matt Unger, St. Louis senior, was the master of ceremonies for the night. Over the past two years, the Leadership Development Program has raised money for different organizations, but this was special because of its cause, he said. University and the scholarship halls the same year. The personal cause of the auction put a little more pressure than usual to raise money, but it was great to help out, he said. "Even if I'm not bidding, I'm still helping to raise money for him," he said. Though they enjoyed the bidding and the excitement of the runway, Boots and Bainum also said they mainly enjoyed helping Andy. Marso was close to the scholarship hall community and it was a lot of fun supporting him, Boots said. "It's exciting to do something for him," he said. Dan Marso, St. Cloud sophomore and Andy's brother, attended the auction and said he thought it was amazing that people would put something like the auction together for one guy. Andy would have gotten a kick out of it. Dan said. "It's nice people haven't forgotten about the stuff he's struggling with," he said. -Edited by Ashley Bechard ESTABLISHED IN CHARLESTON, IL IN 1983 TO ADD TO STUDENTS GPA AND GENERAL DATING ABILITY.

"We had some great individual performances, and we also had an outstanding team battle for third place with a nationall-ranked team in Virginia Tech." The Kansas swimming and diving team finished in third place at the Nike Cup in Chapel Hill, N.C this past weekend, and two Kansas swimmers qualified for the NCAA Championships. Kansas finished 190 points behind second-place North Carolina and 336.5 points behind champion Purdue. The Jayhawks were the only Big 12 team to compete. Team finishes in third, two qualify for NCAAs The Kansas effort was highlighted by a couple first-place individual finishes. Senior Amy Gruber won the 100-meter freestyle event with a time of 49.70. Her time was an NCAA 'A' Standard time, which automatically qualifies her to compete in the 2005 NCAA Championships. Gruber is the first Kansas woman swimmer to record an NCAA 'A' Standard time. The Jayhawks also won the 200 medley relay with a season-best time of 1:43.33 behind efforts by Gruber, jun- Clark said Chesang would hold his own against the nation's best. the confidence to go to the front at the beginning of the race.

Clark said the weather, which is projected to be in the 50s, could be an advantage for Chesang, who had never seen snow before coming to Kansas. At last year's NCAA Championships in Waterloo, Iowa, he ran in temperatures in the 20s, braving 15-mile-per-hour winds. "He's made an adjustment there," he said. "He's learned from last year, and he's doing a better job." Chesang will also compete against his brother Mathew, a Kansas State senior, who finished ahead of Chesang, in second, at the NCAA Midwest Regional, but behind him at the Big 12 Championships, placing third. I am a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley. I received my degree in Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley. "You can talk about sucking it up and running in cold weather," Clark said. "But the reality is he feels better in a warmer climate."

The only problem? Right now, she is the only scoring threat. Junior guard Kaylee Brown, senior guard Aquanita Burras and senior guard Blair Waltz went a combined 1-19 from the field in Kansas' 53-49 loss to Texas-Arlington yesterday at Allen Fieldhouse. Besides Kemp, they are the most obvious other scoring options for the Jayhawks and must shoot better if the Jayhawks are going to win many games this season, coach Bonnie Henrickson said. "We've got options, but the options need to start knocking down shots," Henrickson said. "We have offenses that we run for Aquanita, Blair and Kaylee, but combined those three go 1- Meanwhile, Kemp tied a career high with 26 points in the game. She played 33 minutes, but would have played almost the entire game had she not been in foul trouble in the second half. When the jayhawks needed a big bucket, Kemp had the answer. for-19. They got good looks, but just didn't knock down the shots." seven minutes without making a field goal. Kemp, who sat out most of that time after picking up her third foul, ended the drought with a layup on her first possession back in the game. When she wasn't in the game, there was no answer. "We couldn't stop her," said Texas-Arlington coach Donna Capps. "She is so strong. We're a small team, and we couldn't outsize her in the paint. She dominated us." In the opening minutes of the second half, Kansas went almost Afterward, Kemp was pleased with her performance but disappointed with the outcome of the game. "On an individual basis, yes, I played a good game, but our team lost," Kemp said. "I don't care if I score 26 points or two. We lost the game." Henrickson will use the next few days to try and find another viable scoring option to accompany Kemp. Although Kemp's dominating performance was impressive, Henrickson said the Jayhawks could not rely on her to carry the team all season. "We all want to get the ball to Crystal, but we have to find some offense somewhere else." Rvlan Howe/KANSAN Henrickson said. "Those three (Burras, Brown, and Waltz) are getting shots. They had 19 shots, and I would say that 75 percent of them were uncontested." KANSAS ANSA TEXAS Kemp agreed that she could not do it all. She said the team just needed to shoot better from the field. "All we can do is go out there and work harder," Kemp said. "We have good shooters on our team. It just a matter of them knocking down some shots." Senior middle blocker Ashley Michaels spikes the ball past Texas A&M's Laura Jones. Kansas swept Texas A&M in three games 30-28, 32-30 and 31-29. Saturday night at Horesis Family Athletics Center. — Edited by Ashley Bechard Break out the broom: 'Hawks win, 3-0 By BILL CROSS bcross@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER A glint of emotion burned through Kansas volleyball coach Ray Bechard's usually stoic demeanor after his team defeated No. 13 Texas A&M Saturday night at Horesi Family Athletics Center in Lawrence. "That felt good," the smiling Bechard said as he emerged from his team's locker room. He said the team played with a sense of urgency and used rejuvenated blocking and efficient hitting to pull out the straight-set victory. "That's as well as we've played three games in a row maybe all year," Bechard said. "I hope that's a sign of things to come." The 3-0 match score suggests a Kansas rout, but it won each game by two points, the smallest possible margin of victory, 30-28, 32-20, 31-29. Bechard said the team would continue to use Morris in a defensive role until she was healthy enough to play closer to the net. The first game was tied 16 times, and neither team led by more than two points until a kill by Kansas senior outside hitter/defensive specialist Lindsey Morris made the score 27-24. The Jayhawks erupted in celebration when the ball landed. It was Morris' first kill since returning from a knee injury that sidelined her for most of the season. "We know she can help us across the back," Bechard said. "Our team loves her out there because she brings a real positive energy." Texas A&M battled back to get within one point in the game, trailing 29-28, but Kansas junior outside hitter Paula Caten ended the set with a kill. She and junior middle blocker Josi Lima led the team with five kills apiece in game one. The Aggies jumped out to a quick three-point lead in the second game, but Kansas senior middle blocker Ashley Michaels scored her 1,000th career kill and followed it with a block assist to tie the game, 12-12. After the Aggies scored three straight kills, Michaels reeled off six straight points of her own from the service line to give the Jayhawks a three-point advantage. Texas A&M again fought back and took the lead, but three late service errors let Kansas stay close. Trailing 29-30, the Jayhawks needed a Caten kill and two blocks by Michaels to end the set. "Our block was really working tonight," Lima said. "The key for us is just to stay calm." The Jayhawks out-blocked the Aggies, the second-best blocking team in the Big 12 Conference, 6-0 in the second set. Bechard said such close victories could help his team in the Jayhawks' remaining two matches. "You build a little character when the other team's serving for the game and you side out a couple times," he said. The Jayhawks would have to come from behind again in the match's third set to earn the sweep. The Aggies took a late 28-27 lead in game three after a service ace. Texas A&M had five aces in the final set. After a kill by Lima tied the score, the Aggies were called for an illegal hit, and the Jayhawks took the lead. Texas A&M junior libero Holly Clay set the ball in front of the 10-foot line, and a teammate hit the ball above the net, a play that has been illegal since the NCAA instituted the libero in 2002. Caten closed out the match with two straight kills. She was one of four Kansas players with double-digit kills in the match. "We did a great job tonight distributing the ball," Bechard said. "We had a good scouting report, and the kids did as good a job as we've done carrying that plan out." "The adrenaline gets rolling, and you're not feeling much after that," she said as she held her injured arm against her side. "It's good to be back out there." Kansas senior libero Jill Dorsey, who tore ligaments in her left elbow last week against Nebraska, returned to the starting lineup after sitting out against Texas on Wednesday. She led the team with 16 digs. Dorsey said she was still far from complete recovery, and she could face surgery after the season if she further damaged the joint, but none of that fazed her in her play. "That's just a chance I will im- ing to take," she said. "We've got two matches left, hopefully more." Saturday's victory was the first time in almost a year that the Jayhawks swept a ranked team. The last time was also against the Aggies, on Nov. 22, 2003. "It's going to be their senior night," Bechard said. "But we feel like we've got a whole lot more to play for." The Jawahars next visit Texas Tech, a team they swept earlier this season in Lawrence, on Wednesday. Dorsey said the Jayhawks needed to win against Texas Tech and on Saturday at home against Colorado to ensure a place in December's NCAA Tournament. —Edited by Ryan Greene two, and sophomore guard J.R. Giddens delivered on the next possession with a three from the top of the key to give the Jayhawks a 59-58 lead. After Vermont senior forward Taylor Coppenrath's free throw tied the score, Kansas again relied on an upperclassman to come through. BASKETBALL: Upperclassmen make big plays late in the game CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10A This time it was junior forward Christian Moody, who made the first start of his collegiate career in the game. With 2:49 remaining, Moody was fouled after grabbing an offensive rebound and had a one-and-one opportunity from the free-throw line. The forward had struggled from the line in the past, making just 44 percent of his free-throws in his Kansas career, but he stepped up and sank both shots to put Kansas back up by two. "I knew I was going to get put on the line for some kind of big shot," Moody said. "I just felt like I really had to focus on those." After a missed three-pointer by Vermont senior guard T.J. Sorrentine, Miles buried the jumper and also the Catamounts' chances of an upset. "We knew that they were good coming in, and they really brought it," Moody said. "We got fortunate at the end with some clutch plays by our seniors." Simien was the offensive force for Kansas throughout, scoring 25 points to go along with 14 rebounds. The preseason Big 12 player of the year achieved a double-double — 10 points and 11 rebounds — by halftime. Wooden Award finalist Taylor Coppenrath battled Kansas to the end, finishing with 23 points and seven The senior struggled from the line, however, hitting only five of his 12 free-throw attempts after shooting 75 percent last season. rebounds on 9-of-18 shooting. Kansas senior guard Keith Langford and sophomore guard J.R. Giddens added 12 points apiece for the Jayhawks. "The first game is supposed to ease into the season." Simien said. "But that was a great team, and we knew they were going to come out and play us tough." Kansas basketball notes Senior guard Mike Lee received a surprise start over Giddens, who did not practice the day before the game. "J.R. said he was too sore to practice." Self said, "so I started Mike because he's been out there every day. - Giddens played the second half without his customary headband after having problems with it early in the game. "I was dribbling, and my man just slapped me across my face," Giddens said. "My headband covered my eyes, and I had to make a blind pass. I just ripped it off and continued playing. Giddens said he would go back to his normal routine of wearing the headband against St. Joseph's on Tuesday. "I didn't put it back on, even though I kind of wanted it," Giddens said. Vermont coach Tom Brennan had high praise for Kansas and its crowd after the game. "The fans here are so classy," Brennan said. "On my way out it seemed like I had 100 people tell me how good my team played. This is a class act and I will root for Kansas all year long." — Edited by Ashley Bechard OPENER: Kemp only offensive weapon in yesterday's game CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10A Outside of Kemp and junior guard Erica Hallman, who scored 11 points and recorded five assists before fouling out, no Jayhawk posted more than four points. The trio of senior guard Aquanita Burras, senior guard Blair Waltz and junior guard Kaylee Brown shot a combined 1-19 from the floor. "We shoot well under pressure in practice, but they were forcing us to shoot off-balance shots," said Kemp, who shot 11-19. "Sometimes our shot selection wasn't very good." The poor shooting resulted in long spans without scoring for Kansas. The Jayhawks endured a scoreless streak of 5:08 in the first half and went nearly seven minutes without a field goal in the second half to allow Texas-Arlington to take control late. After extending its six-point halftime lead to 10 at the 15:42 mark with a 34-24 advantage, Kansas slowly gave away the Texas-Arlington, behind a 21-point effort by Ogunoye, pushed ahead to 48-42 with a sophomore guard Terra Wallace jumper at the 4:15 mark. lead. A fade-away jumper by senior forward Rola Ogunoye put the Lady Mavs up for the first time in the second half, 38- 37, and the lead changed hands three more times. Kemp and sophomore forward Alicia Rhymes each scored a basket to cut the lead to 48-46, but an Ogunoye offensive rebound and putback stretched it back to four. The Jayhawks were back within one with less than a minute left after an Erica Hallman three-point shot. A free throw by senior guard Krystal Buchanan put the Lady Mavs ahead 51-49. On the next possession, Hallman scored what appeared to be a game-tying bucket, but officials called her for an offensive foul. The questionable call Henrickson said that the Hallman charge was not the downfall of the Jayhawks. took the points off the scoreboard and left Texas-Arlington with a lead and only 24 seconds left on the clock. "A lot of people will talk about the call at the end of the game, but it never should have come down to a one-possession game," she said. "That's not the reason we lost the game. It was all the other things we did, the 39 minutes before it. The Lady Mavs made 16 steals and forced 22 Kansas turnovers in a tough defensive "We depend on our quickness and speed," Capps said. "The whole trick is to try to control the opponent's runs." effort. They also held the Jayhawks to only 20-51 shooting including 3-12 from three-point range. In addition to the defensive effort, Texas-Arlington gathered 19 offensive rebounds to overcome its 19-55 shooting performance.

Burras scored just three points in the contest. Kansas lost 53-49 against Texas- Arlington yesterday at Allen Fieldhouse. 11 BALMART 22 nk auto parts Rylan Howe/KANSAN BY PAUL BRAND pbrand@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER Two scoring droughts problematic One scoring lapse in each half of yesterday's game, paired with a dismal 39 percent field goal percentage, led to a season-opening defeat for the Kansas women's basketball team. "It shouldn't have been a ball game," coach BonnieHenrickson said. "We shouldn't have been fighting to get a shot at the end to beat this team." Lady Mavs coach Donna Cappus was also shocked at the 53-49 outcome, which pushed Texas-Arlington to 2-0 and dropped Kansas to 0-1. "We're in Kansas," Capps said. "We weren't supposed to win." Despite trailing by as many as 10 points in the second half, the Lady Mavs relied on defense and took RELATED NEWS RELATED NEWS See more on page 7A. advantage of lengthy Jayhawk shooting droughts to pull out a last-minute victory. "We need to understand as a group when we get up 10 what it is that got us up 10," Henrickson said. "We just take a break mentally and allow the other team to come back in and take control." At the end of the first half, junior forward Crystal Kemp hit a shot as time expired to close out a 16-2 run that gave Kansas a 27-21 halftime lead. The shot gave Kemp 15 points for the half; she finished with 26 to lead all scorers. SEE OPENER ON PAGE 7A FOOTBALL A satisfying final game for seniors BY RYAN COLAIANNI rcolaiani尼@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER Senior wide receiver Brandon Rideau sat after the game, answering questions from reporters wearing a shirt with a simple message: Beat Mizzou. The shirt definitely fit with his performance on Saturday in his last game in a Jayhawk uniform, catching eight passes for 100 yards and a touchdown, helping the Kansas football team to a 31-14 win over longtime rival Missouri [Name] But Rideau was not the only senior who made an impact in the game. Mangino said he was ecstatic with the seniors' performance, not just in this week's game, but for as long as he has been their coach. "I want to talk about the seniors who were here before I got here, who bought into what we were doing and they were rewarded today." Mangino said. "Our players have just done a tremendous job week after week, of competing and never letting down and never giving up." Defensive end David McMillan had three sacks, anchoring a defensive front that pressured Missouri junior quarterback Brad Smith early and often. "I thought those guys were going to tire out in the fourth quarter because they were going so hard. They didn't let up a bit, and they were just playing on adrenaline," Mangino said. The defensive unit, as a whole, sacked Smith six times. Their pressure made it difficult for Smith to throw the football, and he connected on just 15 of 40 passes. "Who has been criticized more than Johnny Beek?" Mangino said. "And what did he do today? He iceed the game with a clutch field goal." Senior tight end Lyonel Anderson also went out on a high note, catching four passes for 60 vards. Senior kicker Johnny Beck hit a 35- yard goal field goal in the fourth quarter — Edited by Paige Worthy The Jayhawks finished the season 4-7, falling short of last year's bowl-quality performance. The seniors said this victory was something next year's team could build off of. "We got a conference road victory and helped our team win," Rideau said. "I am looking forward to seeing how these guys do in the next couple years." Miles seals the deal in 68-61 victory Kansas defeats Vermont BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER Aaron Miles never doubted himself. The senior guard missed his first eight shots in Friday night's game against Vermont, but he didn't hesitate when taking his ninth. "After my first shot, all the shots felt good, and I thought they were going in," Miles said. "I kept telling myself I'm going to make the next one. I'm going to make the next one." Miles finally did when the lavhawks needed it most. With 1:55 to go and the shot clock winding down, he penetrated, pumpfaked, then drained a 15-foot jumper to give the Jayhawks a four-point lead and control of the game in a 68-61 win over the Catamounts. "People can criticize him all they want about shooting, but he's hit some big shots," said Kansas senior forward Wayne Simien. "He's known to do that. I'm comfortable with the ball in his hands in the clutch." Miles then helped seal the victory on the other end, leaping high to grab the defensive rebound off a Vermont three-point miss. Though Miles made only one of his nine attempts from the field for 11 percent shooting, Kansas coach Bill Self said the timing was most important for the guard. "Regardless of what anyone thinks, you should never look at his shooting percentage — you should look at when he makes shots." Self said. "He has a history of making shots that count the most." Vermont led 58-54 with 4:31 remaining in the second half before a Simien dunk pulled Kansas within Miles' shot came in the midst of a game-clinching 14-3 run for the Jayhawks.

SEE BASKETBALL ON PAGE 7A Cindy Yeo/KANSAN JEAN STORY MADNESS JEAN SHORT MADNESS RYAN GREENE rgreene@kansan.com Bracelets just a ploy to swindle loyal fans My roommate came home from Friday night's men's basketball game wearing a blue "Rock Chalk" wristband. I couldn't believe it. This was the same guy who wouldn't put on a "LIVE-STRONG" band when I offered it to him at the beginning of the summer. But I've got to hand it to him, because he would have bought the band even if it were $10 instead of $1. He would wear it under any circumstances, because he's about as loyal a Kansas fan as there is. He stays until the end of every game, he consistently busts out his lucky red "Beak 'Em 'Hawks" sweatshirt and he even adorns the backdrop of his fish tank with Iavawk logos. He's the type of fan the Athletics Department loves, but not for the right reasons. Instead of embracing his heartfelt, lifelong loyalty, the department banks on it. It started selling the "Rock Chalk" bands beginning at Nov. 16's women's exhibition basketball game. They are modeled after the "LIVESTRONG" bracelets, which are sold to raise money for cancer research. The proceeds from the "Rock Chalk" band sales, on the other hand, go straight to the Williams Fund to pay for student-athlete scholarships. Oh, puh-lease... "Our athletic teams here at KU have some of the most supportive fans in the nation," said Athletics Director Lew Perkins. "We hope that all of our great fans will wear these bands as a symbol of their support for our teams and as a sign of their pride in being a jayhawk." In my mind, the department is saying it has great fans who spend money because they are duped or scared into thinking that the more money they spend, the better fans they are. The department hopes it can continue to trick fans into contributing money to "show their pride" when the fans are really just making the department filly, stinkin' rich. How is it that not everyone can see through the smoke screen that's being thrown up here? After the points system was established for men's basketball season tickets, it was obvious that Perkins is a money-driven businessman who puts dollar signs first and traditions such as the family atmosphere in Allen Fieldhouse second. For anyone who couldn't see it then, there's no way they should be oblivious now. It seems as if Kansas fans are being told that if they wear the blue band, they're showing their true loyalty, just SEE BRACELETS ON PAGE 6A BY FRANK TANKARD ftankard@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER Chesang heads to Indiana on a roll Jayhawk cross country star competes today at nationals Kansas sophomore Benson Chesang runs today in his second consecutive NCAA Cross Country Championships in Terre Haute, Ind. The 10-kilometer race starts at 11:15 a.m. Since coming to Kansas in the spring of 2003, Chesang has improved at an impressive rate. He had run in just one official race in his life before leaving his hometown of Eldama Ravine, Kenya for Lawrence. In 2003, Chesang led the Jayhawks in every race. He finished 11th at the Big 12 Championships and placed 48th in his first NCAA Championships. This season, he won the Big 12 Championships, becoming the first Kansas runner to do so since John Lawson in 1965 and the first non-Colorado University runner to win since 1997. Chesang qualified for the NCAA Championships on Nov. 13 when he placed sixth at the NCAA Midwest Regional in Peoria, Ill. For the second year in a row, he will be the only Jayhawk at the meet. Distance coach Doug Clark said a more aggressive strategy this year allowed Chesang to place higher in meets. Chesang said his strategy today would be similar to what he did at the Big 12 Championships, when he ran with the front pack for half the race, then took the outright lead. "I just want to sit back for the first 3K or something like that," he said. "And then I'll just do what I did in the Big 12. Just run away from them."

The agreement is a proposed compromise between the City of Lawrence and the University of Kansas. The agreement draws an imaginary line around the primary campus. Within this line, the city has no control of construction that takes place on the campus. But the University does have to comply with city codes for storm, waste and drinking water. Beyond the line, there is 150-foot buffer surrounding the primary campus. The agreement states that the University can build within this buffer, but it has to engage in dialogues with stakeholders and surrounding property owners. Anything outside of the buffer zone is subject to city zoning codes Right now, the city has no authority to enforce zoning laws on the University, because it is a state-run agency. The agreement would allow the city to have some authority over zoning University property when it chooses to expand. The planning commission doesn't have the authority to act on its decision. It can only recommend that the proposed University zoning standard not replace the current "U" or University zoning code, which has been in place since 1966 with several amendments to it. The planning commission asked the city commission to delay approving the agreement until it went back and negotiated more with the University, said Susan Erickson, planning commissioner. The commission wanted neighborhoods in the surrounding area of the University to have more say, she said.

St. Joseph's looks to take on Kansas Coach hopes to create Vermont-like scare BY MIRANDA LENNING milening@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITE Martelli said he was interested to see how Vermont kept the score down in the 60s. Saturday was Phil Martelli's 28th wedding anniversary. But Judy Martelli did not see a lot of her husband, St. Joseph's basketball coach. Instead, Martelli prepared for tonight's game against Kansas by studying game film of Kansas vs. Vermont. Martelli said he hoped the tape would reveal how Vermont hung with the Jayhawks, until a J.R.

Kansas, which led 28-31 at the half, went 11-32 from the field in the first 20 minutes of the game. But the Jayhawks couldn't put the Catamounts away in the second half. In a game that had 10 lead changes, it wasn't until Giddens' three-pointer that the Jayhawks looked in control of the game. After that, Kansas' experience took over.

A 72-year-old Lawrence resident reported a purse and wallet were stolen from his white Jeep in lot 90, the parking lot across Naismith Drive from the Allen Fieldhouse. His loss and the damages from a broken window were estimated at about $310. A 39-year-old Overland Park resident reported that her laptop computer was stolen from her car in the same parking lot. Her loss is about $1,500. Capt. Schuyler Bailey said the University of Kansas Public Safety Office did not have any suspects. He didn't know if there was more than one person responsible for the burglaries. Bailey said parking lots were patrolled regularly by on-duty officers, though he was not sure how often officers were in lot 90 on Friday. He said people should keep valuables out of plain sight or put them in the trunks of their vehicles. "Thieves are usually looking for wallets and purses left out on seats," he said. Amanda O'Toole Auction raises cash for Black Student Union The Black Student Union data auction gathered more volunteers to be auctioned off than last year. "Acquiring an Acquaintance," an annual fundraiser for the student group, auctioned off nine women and eight men Saturday night in the Kansas Union Ballroom. More than 50 students came to the event to make their bids. The highest bid went to Kriston Guillot, Shawnee junior, for $51.50. The highest bid for the women was $30. "We had a lot more people being auctioned off and a bigger crowd," Rona Remmie, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore and vice-president of BSU. The fundraiser is something that BSU members look forward to from the start of the year. "As soon as we announce it people start buying dresses and suits to get ready for the auction," Remmie said. The money will go to help fund the group members to go to the Big 12 Conference, a national event for BSU, in February. After the action, couples socialized over punch and cookies. The couples plan their own dates and are given gift certificates for different restaurants depending on how much the bid was. The group has not yet decided on what restaurant gift certificates will be given to whom yet. — Nikola Rowe MIDDLE SCHOOL CHORAL CENTRE Chris Miller/KANSAN Hugo Vera conducts the Men's Glee Club in a practice Saturday afternoon for its upcoming concert. The concert will take place at 7:30 tonight at the First Presbyterian Church, 2415 Clinton Parkway, and is free to the public. Glee Club builds friendships BY AUSTIN CASTER acaster@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Certain organizations make the transition from high school to college easier. For four freshmen, the camaraderie shared by members of the KU Men's Glee Club started more than four years ago in Boy Scout Troop 59. "From the start, I had a group of friends," James Garito, Lawrence freshman, said. The Troop 59 alumni include freshmen Garito, David Stogsdill, Anson Stancliffe, Phillip Wrigley and sophomore Zachary King. The friends will perform at 7:30 tonight with the KU Men's Glee Club at the First Presbyterian Church, 2415 Clinton Parkway, the church that sponsors Troop 59. Tonight will be the choir's send-off concert. The members raised money all semester for the choir's trip to California during winter break. They will leave Jan. 6 and return Jan. 16. The group first started at the University in 1890. Because of a lack of support and low enrollment, the University discontinued the group in 1943, said Jeff Hall, Leawood senior, who created the group's Web site. He said the group restarted in 1979. The group tours locally throughout Kansas each year but set its sights on something larger this year, said Darren McCarter, president of Men's Glee Club. Fundraisers included cleaning Allen Fieldhouse after Late Night and performing extra gigs such as "This was something that was set up by the students," Hugo Vera, director of the Glee Club, said about the trip. He said students contacted venues such as universities, high schools and churches where the group could perform and raise most of the money. Forty of the 55 KU students in the group and two faculty members will go on the trip. the Lawrence sesquicentennial celebration. More than 40 men helped clean the Fieldhouse and stayed until 8 a.m. "People got to know each other," Vera said. "Everyone was working toward a common goal." Members agreed that camaraderie and the strong traditions of the group kept the men returning each semester. "It's more of a club setting than an actual class," Clayton Schrader, Salina junior and tour manager, said. The members stay because of the guys in the group and variety of music they perform, McCarter said. He joined the group two years ago. "There's a strong sense of community," McCarter, St Joseph, Mo., senior, said. "I think for a lot of guys it's a sense of pride." He said the group worked to incorporate the freshmen into the friendship each year. Garito enjoys the atmosphere and how outgoing Vera is during rehearsals. "He's a graduate student so he knows what school life is like for us." Garito said. Schrader said the group began planning for the trip in May. Each member will pay $450 for the trip and the group raised the rest of the money on its own, he said. The club will make time for fun on the trip as well, performing at DisneyLand's Magic Music Days and going to The Price is Right. The concert tonight will showcase the variety of music the group will perform while on tour. McCarter's favorite piece the group will perform is "Tonight" from the musical West Side Story because it gave the group an opportunity to put character into its performance, he said. "It gives us a chance to show why we enjoy music so much," McCarter said. — Edited by Steve Vockrodt THIS WEEK ON CAMPUS NOVEMBER 23, 2004 STUDENT SENATE MILK TO OPEN Mentoring In the Lives of Kids MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN A CHILD'S LIFE Center for Community Outreach Nutrition Facts Number of Schools... 10 Volunteer Days.

Nielsen's column misuses numbers to skew minority info In response to Arrah Nielsen's articles regarding multiculturalism in higher education, we at the Student Involvement and Leadership Center feel that additional information is needed to understand this complex issue. We extend beyond the racial lens these articles provide, to include socio-economic and cultural factors. GILMORE'S VIEW When playing with numbers it is tempting to take these factors out of context; however, to do so negates their purpose. For example, when discussing increases in school funding it is important to address inflation, per capita funding and the cost difference of running dilapidated buildings typically found in urban areas. Unfortunately a high number of minority students are coming from lower socio-economic circumstances. As a result, these students may feel a larger Students of color are combating institutional forces that have been present since the formation of higher education in America. Not only are minority students displaced culturally when they step on campus, but they lack role models within the faculty, administration and staff. Though numbers can be manipulated to tell a story when taken out of context, numbers fail to present the whole picture. The Student Involvement and Leadership Center felt the need to respond because we value multiculturalism in higher education, specifically on KU's campus.

We're gonna stand up, and we're gonna be human beings. We're going to get fired up about the real things, the things that matter: creativity and the dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit! GUEST COMMENTARY Alex Jones, Waking Life OCLIP COMMENTARY I chose the quote above because it was the first time I heard someone say that humanity is unstoppable. It taught me that life is not about race, gender, nationality, party or ideology but about the one human race. Together we can do anything because of our "dynamic human spirit that refuses to submit." It is our responsibility as humans to always fight for the rights of all humans across the world. In this time the world must come together as one and fight for all. BLAKE SWENSON opinion@kansan.com The world is on the dawn of a new age. An ever-expanding global community is being dictated by our rapid evolution. America is at a crossroads trying to understand its role in this changing international climate. The battle between two schools of thought has been the underlying impetus for the tension that has dictated the last three years; one fighting to hoard the power of an isolated American hegemony and the other demanding an America that unites the world to work as one. This battle has pushed us into a society dominated by division and distraction. Our country is constantly being divided; rich-poor, black-white, Democrat-Republican, Christian-place your religious belief here. This splitting leads to competition that breeds tension, which then causes us to fear one another. It is this cycle of separation that shapes our humanity. As our communities are divided, the pop culture distracts the people from the real problems. The television has made celebrities out of Bob "The Bachelor" and Puck. More and more news is being sensationalized. Look at the magazines that surround a grocery store register: People, Us Weekly and The Star. This celebrity-driven culture makes Scott Peterson a news story for more than a year and makes role models out of athletes and movie stars. This overwhelming pop culture has further removed us from the real problems that face the world. America used to be a beacon of hope because it fought for the future with progressive initiatives such as the New Deal, the moon landing and the Great Society. Instead, the nation is working to put discrimination back into the Constitution, protect the wealthy aristocracy and to alienate a global community that is becoming more powerful. International governing bodies are rising in influence and strength. The United Nations has never had a more important presence in foreign affairs. The European Union is growing rapidly in size and authority. America cannot stop the booming global community and, as a result, it must learn to lead if we are to continue to progress as a society. America has an opportunity as the superpower to unite the world, and therefore humanity. We must reject a society that tries to separate us with fear and divert us with nonsense and embrace our common identity as humans. We doubt our fellow brothers and sisters because we are constantly told to be afraid. This leads us to doubt that there is goodness in humans and we then doubt our ability to change the world. When there could be nothing further from the truth. We as humans all have the ability to be geniuses. Genius is not about intellect, but about recognizing the power of fighting for equality and not power. Swenson is a Topeka senior in political science. Be daring, but realistic, with first toy The setting of today's article is a Priscilla's. Why Priscilla's? Well, this is a sex column, and Priscilla's is an "adult novelty store" and so I thought I would combine the two to get STEPHEN'S SEX TOY ARTICLE. Schuyler and I decided it was time to ramp up our sex lives. She had never received an orgasm (that sounds like a Christmas package, doesn't it?) and I'd never received a proper prostate orgasm (like a gift from the gods). Buying sex toys for the first time is the most unnerving thing known to man. There's two ways you can go, either order them online or go to your local sex shop. We opted for the second. SEX 101 STEPHEN MOLES opinion@kansan.com SEX 101 Even though Schuyler and I were excited about going to Priscilla's for our first sex toy experience, the minute we got in we were both nervous. I believe that it all has to deal with perception. It also didn't help that the guy working the counter was creepy (he had beady eyes and a weird smile... plus he played ska music, how non-sexy is that) and when asked what vibrator would be Sex, for most of us, is a very private act. What we do, who we do it with, and how we do it isn't something that we broadcast. However, when you go and buy a vibrator, that's symbolically coming out to the world and screaming "Yes, I masturbate." Eventually, Schuyler and I picked our poisons. Schuyler got a slim, simple, pink vibrator, while I chose the more exotic, multi-tiered anal dildo, that starts out slim and get fatter. Unfortunately, however, it was pink and ielly. good to start with he answered: "something small." That is not good service. For future workers of Priscilla's: If someone asks you what toy to start out with, give help. Buying a sex toy is difficult, and being left in the dark is not fun. My dildo, however, got quite the homecoming. My roommates, so excited at the prospect of me shoving things up my ass, decided to name the dildo. After they played with it for 45 minutes (including getting carpet hairs all over it), they named it William S. Burrows, after the author. They named it this because a) they believed the dildo looked like the creature in Naked Lunch and b) It, well ... burrows. co Results: Well, after then using the dildo, I have to say that the experience was...unexpected. More weird than sexy. I'm not going to go into much detail, but ...hmm ... maybe I just need to try it again. Or maybe not all gay guys like things up their asses. But that would go against the popular myth my roommates are trying to perpetuate. Strange. As for Schuyler's results: Well, she said it was good. It was her first time masturbating, and without getting to explicit, she liked it. But the vibrator was a new sensation and she had to introduce it slowly. Reactions: Here's my advice for sex toys. Be adventurous, but also understand that you may be disappointed at some point. Not all sex toys are for everyone. They might seem weird at first, but keep at it. You'll find something that works. When using sex toys that "insert," be sure not to use too much lube or much of the stimulation will be lost. Finally, when you are buying sex toys, make sure you are well informed on how they work, how to clean and maintain them. And make sure the sales associate at Priscilla's you get is more helpful, or just go to Naughty but Nice. Moles is a Lawrence junior in sociology. 1 V 1.

Austin Caster Buffet brings attention to African food, culture The African Student Association hosted an African Thanksgiving buffet Saturday afternoon. The event raised more than $300 for the group's future events. Almost 100 people from different countries came to taste food from all over Africa. Everyone liked it because there was a lot of variety, Ugo Okoronkwo, Imo, Nigeria freshman and social chair for ASA, said. "The vegetarians and the meat lovers were all happy," he said. Close to 20 dishes were served and many different kinds of juices. "In Africa we drink a lot of fruit juice," Okoronkwo said. The food ranged from different kinds of soup to plantains to African donuts, which are similar to American banana bread. This is the first year the group has had hosted a Thanksgiving buffet. Nikola Rowe WORLD Iran temporarily halts production of uranium VIENNA, Austria — Iran said yesterday it has frozen all uranium enrichment programs, weakening a U.S. effort to refer Tehran's suspect nuclear activities to the U.N. Security Council. President Bush said he hoped the statement is true but "there must be verification." Iran's claim was welcomed by Europe and cautiously endorsed by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N. atomic watchdog agency. But even if verified by the IAEA, such a freeze falls short of European and U.S. hopes of an Iranian commitment to scrap enrichment ambitions. Iran has said suspension will be only temporary and insists that it has the ultimate right to enrich uranium. It dismisses U.S. assertions that it wants to use the technology to make weapons, saying it is interested in generating nuclear power. And Tehran's announcement of a start to suspension came only after it had already converted a few tons of raw uranium into the gas used as feedstock for enrichment. While not prohibited from doing so until yesterday — when the freeze took effect — conversion continued until shortly before the deadline, raising doubts about Iran's interest in dispelling international concerns. The Associated Press KIEV, Ukraine — Tens of thousands of demonstrators jammed downtown Kiev in freezing temperatures last night, denouncing Ukraine's presidential runoff election as fraudulent and chanting the name of their reformist candidate who authorities said was trailing in the vote count. Ukrainians reject results of presidential election Viktor Yushchenko stood beaming on a platform with campaign aides and flashed a "V" for victory sign — even though the Central Election Commission said earlier that with nearly all the votes counted, he was losing to Kremlin-backed Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovchv. The election commission's announcement galvanized widespread dismay and anger among the former Soviet republic's 48 million people. The capital's city council and several other municipal governments rejected the official results and a major chocolate factory closed plants in protest. THANKSGIVING: Holiday offers recoup time before finals The Associated Press "We'll have a turkey — the works," he said. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A He will miss the family atmosphere, but will enjoy the time in Lawrence, he said. "I'm just glad I'm not going to be taking any more tests, and I can recover for finals," he said. "I'm just going to sit back, watch some football and eat." John Kanaga, Orleans, Mass., senior, also will not be going home, because his parents will be in Italy for the holiday. However, he said he wouldn't miss much. Some of his other family is gathering in the Kansas City area so he will be able to spend the holiday with them and catch up with his older sister and extended family. Kengo Terada, Kashiwa, Japan, junior, said Thanksgiving was not a holiday in Japan, but he has celebrated it since coming to Lawrence. He will spend the break going to his girlfriend's uncle's house in Washington, D.C. He said the holiday break was a good time for students to rest and for them to do things they would not otherwise be able to do. He will also use the extra time to catch up on a presentation that is due after the break, he said. Still others say they will do anything to make their way home. Ethan Golub, Lincoln, R.I. sophomore, will be going home even though the plane ticket cost more than $400. "I waited a bit too long to book the flight," he said. That won't stop him from getting back. "It's important because Thanksgiving is a good family event," he said. "It'll be good to get home." - Edited by Johanna M. Maska LAND: City, University try to settle compromise CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A One of the issues with the plan concerns the neighborhoods surrounding the University. "It was rejected in the form it was presented in," said Candice Davis, Oread representative to the Lawrence Association of Neighborhoods. The agreement needs some changes made to it, but the changes are fairly minor, she said. If the University is honestly and sincerely interested in seeing this work, it will make the modest changes. sion because that's where the neighborhoods are. A skyscraper could be built in the middle of campus and there would be nothing anyone could do about that, she said, but the main campus isn't the concern. The perimeter areas of the University are what's affected by building and expansion, but didn't think the state would agree. There 'is probably still some agreement that can be worked out between the University and the city, he said, but "the commission needs to contact us." These zoning standards are what everyone followed, she said. They're meant for the protection of everyone, including the University. "To me it isn't asking a lot to revisit this," Davis said. "The University is good for the city, but, likewise, the city is good for the University." The Oread neighborhood has a lot of history to it, and it's interested in keeping that integrity, she said. The University worked on the proposal for months, said David Shulenburger, provost and executive vice chancellor. "I think the proposal we have stands," he said. Shulenburger said he understood the reason behind the actions of the planning commis- The city commission is set to discuss the agreement at its Dec. 14 meeting. Legal action might be sought by either the city or University, if the city attempts to enforce its land use regulations on the University and the University finds that the city has no authority to do so, said David Corliss, director for administrative legal services for the city. The land use agreement was an attempt "to avoid litigation and resolve these land use issues ahead of time," he said.

"We hit shots when it was time to hit shots and executed when we needed to and that is what good teams do when things aren't flowing their way," Giddens said. Martelli said that experience was what concerned him most about playing the lavwhaws. "They are a team driven by their oldest guys and they have a certain calm to them," Martelli said. "We have more young guys who are trying to find their way." The Hawks don't have that kind of experience after losing two first round NBA draft picks, Jameer Nelson and Delonte West. They will also be playing without one of the senior leaders, Pat Carroll, Carroll, a senior guard who led the Atlantic 10 in three-point percentage last year, will miss tomorrow's game because of a separated right shoulder. Junior guard Chet Stachitas will start in his place, Martelli said. St. Joe's will have three freshman playing in its top eight rotation. Unlike Vermont's power forward, Taylor Coppenrath, who scored 23 points, and was the only Catamount to score in the final 6:30 of Friday's game, St. Joe's doesn't have a standout player. "We are not going to have one guy who will go out there and win it for us." Martelli said. "It will be a collective effort." West. Martelli said the identity of his team has changed from a group that depended on a couple of experienced guys to a team whose focus is playing together. They know not to overlook the Hawks, but the Jayhawks take a little comfort in knowing they don't have to defend two NBA-caliber players. After losing Nelson and "We can't just take it for granted that we are going to beat them because those two guys are gone, but obviously we are going to feel better knowing that they did lose some first round draft picks," Keith Langford, senior guard, said. Kansas Coach Bill Self simply said: "We will just have to get better between now and then." — Edited by Johanna M.

It's always been easy to find high-calorie, fat-filled and fried food. But at Detroit Metropolitan Airport and a growing number of airports nationwide, more options for the health-conscious are on the menu. It was a pilot's complaint that helped launch the improvement in Detroit. Now "Heart Smart" options marked with a red logo are on many menus — and a recent survey shows the airport continues to make strides in healthy offerings. "When I'm at an airport, the last thing I want is a cheese-burger," said Anthony Struzziero, who grabbed a chicken breast sandwich during a recent layover. He decided to eat at Mediterranean Grill after spotting healthy options on its menu. Struzzizero, 18, of Portland, Maine, was on his way to Phoenix to visit a friend and said healthy options like those at Mediterranean Grill are something he's seeing more often at other airports, too. "A lot more have sandwich shops and healthy food places," he said. "I think a lot of places are trying to get away from fast food." Last year a pilot looking for healthy food stopped in to see the Detroit airport's chief executive Lester Robinson, who has made improving food options a top priority. Soon after, the airport formed a partnership with a Detroit-based network of hospitals and clinics, the Henry Ford Health System. The network's experts evaluated the menus of 13 restaurants at its McNamara Terminal, one of Northwest Airlines' nationwide hubs. Besides making "Heart Smart" designations, the health experts worked with restaurants on improving their food. Now more of the estimated 50 airport restaurants are getting items certified as heart-healthy. Mediterranean Grill's list of healthy offerings include tabbouleh, vegetarian grape leaves and chicken stir fry. Administrative manager Ric Frievalt said one of his changes was to bake falafel instead of deep-frying it so it would qualify as "Heart Smart." "It's something that travelers at many airports haven't seen." Frievalt said of the program. "We think about it only for travelers, but you also have people who work there," said Darlene Zimmerman, a registered dietitian at Henry Ford. Recently, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, which promotes vegetarian diets, cited Detroit's airport as No. 2 in offering healthy vegetarian fare among 12 of the busiest U.S. airports. The group said 83 percent of restaurants offer such food. Claiming the top spot was Miami International Airport with 85 percent of restaurants offering food low in fat, cholesterol-free and high in fiber. Trulie Ankerberg-Nobis, clinical research coordinator for the Physicians Committee, said the rankings come as airline passengers look for more carry-on food options. "More restaurants are step ping up to the plate ... because fewer people are getting that on board," Ankerberg-Nobis said. "They have to take it from home or they are going to buy it from the airport themselves." The rankings are based on the percentage of restaurants offering at least one entree that fits the requirements. Although airport food is getting healthier, the Physicians Committee said 36 percent of airport restaurants surveyed still don't offer one qualifying entree. "There still is lots more improvement to do," Ankerberg-Nobis said. In Detroit, airport employees have taken notice of the options. "They've always had salads available," said Judith Wegner, 49, of Taylor, who works at the Northwest Airlines' WorldClub. "They've always had some of these, but the restaurants have gotten better." Wegner was eating a late lunch at Online Cafe, where the menu includes a vegetarian sandwich and a smoked turkey spinach wrap. "I do get tired of burgers and fries," said the six-year airport employee. State protects Hills from turbines THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TOPEKA — A state panel has recommended that about a third of the treasured Flint Hills should remain free of wind turbines, which can create energy from the steady breezes of the prairie, until further guidelines for their development emerge at the both the state and local level. The proposed "Heart of the Flint Hills Area" covers about 2 million acres and portions of 11 counties, including the cities of El Dorado, Emporia, Manhattan and Junction City. A "Cabinet Team," appointed by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, asked property owners and wind developers to exercise "voluntary restraint" inside the area until additional guidelines for wind development are written. Kansas' first commercial wind farm opened in 2001 near Montezuma. The Gray County Wind Energy farm generates 112 megawatts of power with 170 turbines, enough to power 40,000 households. Other projects being considered include sites in Anderson, Cloud, Cowley, Elk, Ford, Stevens and Wichita counties. Jennifer States, of JW Prairie Windpower in Lawrence, said she hoped Sebelius would make "a sound decision" about wind power and allow projects to go forward. States said a 120-megawatt site that her company has been developing could generate $1 million for its county through leases and other payments to the county. ROCK CHALK: Proceeds help United Way CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A Wells, Portland, Ore., senior, said about the show, which will never be performed. Regardless of whether their shows were chosen, the Rock Chalk Revue directors had fun. They arrived in limousines wearing formalwear. Samantha Horner, Leawood senior, said her group members wore their costumes for their oral interview on Saturday. Last night was dressy-casual. She said they went out for dinner and cocktails before the announcement. All groups would be celebrating, whether it be to success or new-found freedom, she said. "We've been working since September, I'd say at least 20 hours a week," Horner said. Her sorority, Gamma Phi Beta, teamed with Phil Delta Theta to produce "On Air," one of the five chosen shows. Horner said her show was about a television news station with call letters HAWK in the fictional town of Greenwood Falls. The station receives the highest ratings until MIZU comes to town. MIZU steals ratings by fabricating sensational news. She said her group did not give away the ending during its oral interview so it could leave the judges hanging. The judges consist of English teachers in the Kansas City area and professionals from Theatre in the Park, said Erin Nied, executive director. Each judge brings something different to the table, she said. "We were trying to get an overall show that would benefit the United Way as much as possible," Nied, St. Louis senior, said.

Kathleen Sebelius tried to use a casino compact with two Indian tribes to resolve thorny gambling issues this fall, but the agreement's wide scope created too big an obstacle. The agreement also would protect the new casino from competition by threatening the state with the loss of its revenue if it did not restrict gambling elsewhere. The compact would allow the Kickapoo and Sac and Fox tribes to open a casino in Wyandotte County and guarantee the state $50 million or more annually. If legislative leaders had exercised their legal power to approve such a compact, they would have set policy on expanding gambling. That fact made it easier for House Speaker Doug Mays to block action on the compact last week. Instead of discussing the compact's merits or gambling policy, Mays argued that such a big decision shouldn't be left to only a few leaders. "We'll have a debate, and it will be before the full Legislature," said Mays (R-Topeka). Mays could block action on the compact because he's chairman of the Legislative Coordinating Council and sets its agenda. State law says the council can approve a compact when lawmakers are out of session, but Mays kept the Kickapoo and Sac and Fox agreement off the agenda for the council's meeting tomorrow. The lack of action didn't kill the compact, of course. Sebelius and the tribes can still present the agreement to lawmakers after their 2005 session convenes. But Sebelius may be less aggressive about a compact because she'll have other issues to pursue. In statements last week, Sebelius noted that her agenda for the session included health care initiatives and improving public schools, suggesting gambling would be less important. All said the compact represented an attempt to move forward on gambling. In January, Sebelius proposed a bill to allow up to five state-owned casinos, up to 2,500 slot machines spread among the state's dog- and horse-racing tracks, and video lottery machines at 240 fraternal clubs. Legislators — as they have repeatedly over the past decade — rejected the gambling legislation. Still, negotiations with the tribes remained an option. They and Sebelius struck a deal in October. Their compact would be the first in Kansas to offer the state a share of revenue from Indian gambling, though seven states have similar agreements with tribes. The Kickapoo and Sac and Fox already operate separate casinos in northeast Kansas, as do the Iowa and Prairie Band Potawatomi, under compacts approved in the 1990s. The latest compact would permit the Kickapoo and Sac and Fox to build a $210 million casino-and-hotel complex near Kansas Speedway. To receive any revenue, the state would have to limit the number of slot machines elsewhere in Kansas to 600 or fewer each at Wichita Greyhound Park, a now-closed dog track outside Pittsburg and The Woodlands dog and horse racing park in Kansas City, Kan. During a legislative session, a bill to allow one big casino and to limit slot machines elsewhere to dog and horse tracks would face opposition from gambling opponents. Developers, communities and groups interested in getting a piece of the pie would likely attack such a plan as too narrow. "We didn't have much time to analyze a complex set of issues," said Senate President Dave Kerr, (R-Hutchinson). "It's not easy to tell what the implications are." Sebelius said history supported having the Legislative Coordinating Council approve the latest compact. In 1995, the council approved the compacts allowing the Kickapoo and Sac and Fox to operate their existing casinos. But that year, as Mays noted, the council acted after the full Legislature already had approved similar compacts with the Potawatomi and Iowa. And none of the four compacts attempted to set gambling policy across the state.

Colombian President Alvaro Uibe Vetez and his wife, Lina, welcome President Bush and first lady Laura Bush, left, for an official visit yesterday in Cartagena, Columbia. Lawrence Jeckson/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS In a country that is the world's largest producer of cocaine and a major supplier of heroin, Bush said President Alvaro Uribe is achieving results with a massive aerial fumigation program against coca — the main ingredient in cocaine — and an aggressive military buildup against insurgents, who fund themselves through drug trafficking, kidnapping and extortion. "The number of acres under cultivation are down significantly," Bush said, standing with Uribe in shirt sleeves at seaside lecterns. "The number of arrests are up. The number of murders is down. In other words, this man's plan is working." Bush's pledge reaffirms U.S. commitments to a $3.3 billion, five-year military aid program known as Plan Colombia. Uribe said Colombia was winning the fight, but has not yet won. "We have made progress but the serpent is still alive." Bush said the plan launched in August 2000 enjoys widespread support in Congress and that he would work with lawmakers to keep it funded. Without mentioning a specific figure, Bush said he would seek enough funds to make the plan effective. Bush left Cartagena for his Texas ranch to spend the Thanksgiving holiday, arriving in early evening. At Uribe's urging, he stopped off in this Caribbean seaport city after attending a summit in Chile of 21 Pacific Rim leaders. Security was tight. U. S. Navy commandoes, toting assault rifles and peering through binoculars, patrolled the Caribbean in rubber boats where submarines and ships already plied the waters. Warplanes and helicopters provided air cover while 15,000 Colombian security forces were deployed around the city for Bush's brief stay. Bush was here to strengthen relations in Latin America, but he also responded to news from Iran, which claimed it had frozen all uranium enrichment activities. The United States believes Iran is developing nuclear weapons. Sounding skeptical about Iran's claim, Bush said, "Well, let's say I hope it is true." But unwilling to take Iran's word, Bush said, Iran must allow for verification of its claims. "I think the definition of truth is the willingness for the Iranian regime to allow for verification," the president said. Since Uribe came to power two years ago, Plan Colombia has helped jail scores of traffickers and reduce the coca crop by 20 percent for two years in a row, according to the White House. And the battle against rebel groups — the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, known by its Spanish acronym FARC, and the National Liberation Army, known as the ELN — is being expanded from the capital of Bogota to more rural areas. Still, the efforts have still failed to visibly reduce cocaine production or keep it off U.S. streets. And the 40-year-old insurgency continues to claim an estimated 3,500 lives every year Bush said the outcome of the battle was critical to security in both nations. "The drug traffickers who practice violence and intimidation in this country send their addictive and deadly products to the United States." Bush said. "Defeating them is vital to the safety of our peoples and to the stability of this hemisphere." While in Cartagena, Bush met with Orlando Cabrera, a Colombian native who plays for the world champion Boston Red Sox, and shook hands with more than a dozen elementary schoolaged baseball players. One of the youngsters presented Bush with jersey embelloned with Cabrera's No. 44. "He just missed it by one number," joked Bush, the 43rd president of the United States. Powell promises election support to Palestine THE ASSOCIATED PRESS JERUSALEM — Secretary or State Colin Powell made a new push for Mideast peace yesterday, promising Palestinians full American support for elections to replace Yasser Arafat and receiving Israeli assurances of a smooth path to the ballot box, including eased travel restrictions and letting Palestinians in east Jerusalem vote by absentee ballot. In one of his last overseas trips as the top U.S. diplomat, Powell sat down with both Israeli and Palestinian leaders, seeking to capitalize on new realities created by Arafat's death. "I have come to bring a message of peace and commitment from President Bush that he wants to move forward on the path of peace, to take advantage of the new opportunities that are before us." Powell said in a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. Much of the discussions with the leaders focused on the Jan. 9 elections for Palestinian Authority president. Powell also visited a voter registration center in the West Bank town of Jericho, listening to Palestinians' pleas for a state of their own. Though they mourn Arafat, many Palestinians feel a sense of excitement and possibility at the end of his one-man rule, anticipating the election that could help give them the first real democracy in the Arab world. "Now the father is dead and everyone in the family has the right to express his own views," said Moenis Abu Imran, a shopkeeper in the West Bank city of Ramallah. Nevertheless, extremists on both sides pose a threat, and it's far from clear whether Palestinian and Israeli leaders will have enough confidence and credibility to make the painful concessions required for any peace deal. Israeli leaders assured Powell will do their utmost to allow 'he vote to take place, including easing travel restrictions in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Powell said the Israelis expressed a willingness to allow Palestinian residents of east Jerusalem to vote, a contentious issue because Israel fears doing so could undermine its claims to the entire city. Powell said both sides agreed that the model used in the last Palestinian elections in 1996 — allowing east Jerusalem residents to cast absentee ballots — could be followed again. In a sign of an improving atmosphere after four years of deadly violence, Israeli officials also said they were willing to renew talks with the Palestinians on some issues, including security, and to coordinate the aftermath of Israel's planned withdrawal from Gaza and part of the West Bank in 2005. Israel and the United States had refused to talk to Arafat in his final years, calling him an unacceptable negotiating partner because of what they said was his support of terror. Arafat died Nov. 11 in France at age 75. Abbas, Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia and interim Palestinian Authority President Rauhi Fattouh, among others. The Fatah Central Committee chose Abbas as the party's presidential candidate late yesterday. Abbas, 69, Arafat's longtime deputy as head of the Palestine Liberation Organization, already has been named head of the PLO. If elected president of the Palestinian Authority, he would inherit two of Arafat's main titles. Yesterday, Powell met with interim PLO leader Mahmoud Powell said both Israel and the Palestinians must return to the U.S.-backed "road map" peace plan, which calls for a Palestinian state after requiring Palestinians to dismantle terror groups and Israel to freeze settlement building in the West Bank and Gaza. The plan had been all but dead because of each side's failure to implement the initial requirements. When people in Jericho pressed Powell for a timetable for creation of a Palestinian state, he said: "It won't be determined by picking a date, but by progress and action on the ground." Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said it wails in Israel's interest to see the Palestinian elections go forward, adding they could pave the way for a new leadership "with whom we Powell announced his resignation last week. He told reporters in Jericho that despite changes in the Bush administration, President Bush's commitment to a Palestinian state "remains constant." can sit down." "I have reassured the secretary today that Israel will do everything in its power to ensure their smooth running," he said, adding Palestinians would have "freedom of movement." Shalom did not say whether Israel would pull back troops. He said Israel would coordinate the election with the Palestinians but would not compromise on security. An Israeli official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Shalom also told Powell Israel is willing to resume talks with the Palestinians on other issues, including security. Israel reoccupied West Bank towns during a 2002 military offensive aimed at halting Palestinian suicide bombings in Israel. Troops have since withdrawn from some areas, but continue to enforce travel restrictions on Palestinians. Palestinians say they need freedom of movement for the campaign and the vote. Palestinian Cabinet minister Saeb Erekat said Powell told Palestinian leaders "the United States will stand shoulder to shoulder with us to have free elections." Powell also reiterated that the Palestinian must rein in militants, saying: "We have to ensure that terrorism and violence will not be permitted once again to stop this process." Abbas is trying to persuade militant groups, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad, to halt violence during the election campaign, but it is not clear whether they will do so. Defiance in House won't end easily THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Defying President Bush, Reps. Duncan Hunter and James Sensenbrenner — who led opposition dooming legislation based on the Sept. 11 commission's recommendations — said they wouldn't change their minds without Senate concessions. The two men turned back a last-second deal Saturday to pass stalled legislation to create a new national intelligence director and national counterterrorism center. The overhaul was supposed to help the intelligence community track terrorist threats and was one of the biggest legislative priorities of this year. There was nothing left but recriminations yesterday, with most of Congress heading home for Thanksgiving and Bush still on an overseas trip. No meetings of the bill's negotiators have been planned. The House and Senate scheduled Dec. 6-7 meetings just in case a deal is reached. Bush personally lobbied House Republicans and told reporters Sunday that "it was clear I wanted the bill passed." But Sensenbrenner (R-Wisconsin), chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and Hunter (R-California), chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, spoke against the bill in a House GOP meeting Saturday afternoon, forcing Speaker Dennis Hastert to pull it. That defiance will have reper. cussions, John Lehman, a former Navy secretary who worked under President Reagan, told CNN. "This is the classic confrontation you see in Washington that they can sell tickets for," said Lehman, who also served on the Sept. 11 commission. "Because the president now has been challenged directly by the leadership of the Congress and by the lobbyists and by the bureaucracy. Now he's got to show who's in charge." Hunter echoed Pentagon concerns that the realignment of intelligence authority could interfere with the military chain of command and endanger troops in the field. Sensenbrenner demanded that the bill also deal with anti-terrorism laws and illegal immigration Sensenbrenner said the Senate had refused to negotiate on his issues until two weeks ago. Then, in direct negotiation by phone with Bush on Air Force One, Sensenbrenner said he gave up on most of his demands — including tightening up driver's license requirements so illegal immigrants couldn't get them — after Bush called that a "poison pill." But Senate negotiators refused to budge on his other issue — reforming asylum laws so terrorists couldn't use them to enter the country — ensuring his opposition. "In a military situation, being confused about the chain of command is a dangerous thing," Hunter said Saturday night. Scurvy Free Since 1936 HARBOUR LIGHTS 1031 Massachusetts Pregnant?

The Demon Deacons (2-0) didn't have to wait long to play their first game leading the rankings, hosting Yale last night. Kansas won its only game of the season but trailed most of the way before beating visiting Vermont 68-61. Wake Forest opened with Preseason NIT home wins over George Washington (97-76) and Virginia Commonwealth (81-67). "Because of the strength of the ACC in particular and the country in general, I think this is a season when many schools will have the opportunity to be in this position," Wake Forest coach Skip Prosser said. His team probably benefited from an opening less by then-No. 4 North Carolina to Santa Clara. The Tir Heels held eight first-place votes last week but dropped all the way to 11th in the current poll.

'K-Mart' to face former team DENVER - No doubt Kenyon Martin is happy in Denver, a place where he feels wanted and is part of an up-and-coming team. But as he prepares to face his former team for the first time today, Martin can't help but think about what could have been had the New Jersey Nets just shown a little more interest in re-signing him. "If they would have come to me and showed me that they cared from Day 1, from July 1, all this would never (have) be an THE ASSOCIATED PRESS issue," Martin said. "But I didn't feel like the wanted me there." The team's reaction surprised Martin, especially after what he had been through with the Nets. Playing his first four seasons in New Jersey, Martin helped the Nets reach the playoffs three straight years, including trips to NBA Finals in 2002 and 2003. He had his best season a year ago, averaging 16.7 points and 9.5 rebounds and making the All-Star team for the first time. But Martin's big year may have priced the rugged power forward right out of New Jersey. Under new owner Bruce Ratner, the Nets were looking to rim payroll and never made a formal offer to Martin. When the Nuggets offered Martin a huge front-loaded contract, New Jersey had to try and work out a deal for the restricted free agent. So instead of returning to New Jersey, his first choice, Martin ended up Denver in a sign-and-trade deal that sent three first-round draft picks to the Nets and earned K-Mart a seven-year, $92 million contract. "They waited until the last minute until everything was about to develop," Martin said. "It was kind of too late." FOOTBALL In light of his three-sack performance against Missouri, senior defensive end David McMillan was named the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week. Senior David McMillan Big 12 player of week This is just the second time this season a Kansas football player has been named a Big 12 player of the week, the last being senior wide receiver Brandon Rideau, on special teams, the first week of the season. McMillan led a Kansas defense that did not let Missouri move past the 50 yard line until the fourth quarter. He had three sacks for a total of -35 yards and was a major contributor in holding the Tigers to a total of -6 yards on the ground. "He played phenomenal football for us, and we're very proud of him," said coach Mark Mangino. McMillan completed the game with five tackles, four for a loss and forced a fumble. In his final season with the Jayhawks, he finished eighth on the team with 37 tackles and led the team in sacks, with seven. The Kansas team will have this week off before returning for offseason workouts next week. 1986 'Hawk block Ginny Weatherman/KANSAN — Jonathan Kealing Brian Regan, Glendale Heights senior, blocks a basketball.

NOVEMBER 23. 2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 9A SPORTS Wildcats sit out of bowl shebang THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MANHATTAN — Kansas State's season began with promise and ended in November, for the first time in a dozen years. The Wildcats took the field for their season opener with a No. 12 ranking, a serious Heisman Trophy contender in senior running back Darren Sproles and hopes of playing for a second straight Big 12 championship. After two games, the national ranking was gone. Sproles finished with 1,318 yards rushing but only broke 100 yards in a game five times. And for the first time in 12 years, Kansas State isn't headed to a bowl game. Late collapses in their final two games dropped the Wildcats to 4-7 overall and 2-6 in Big 12 play, their first losing season since 1992. "Coming in as seniors, we came in thinking we were on top of the world," defensive tackle Jermaine Berry said. "And the next thing you know, you're down there at the bottom of the rankings." Coach Bill Snyder has posted too many successful seasons in Manhattan for one bad year to place his job in jeopardy. But turning the Wildcats around next year — especially after the departure of Sproles, the school's career leader with 4,979 yards rushing and 48 touchdowns — might not be easy. Sproles' backup, Thomas Clayton, had only 15 carries for 71 yards this season. With the graduation of Mike Johnson, the Wildcats will have a new center for the third time in as many years. Kansas State also loses Berry, who was third on the team with 55 tackles, and its best defensive back. Cedrick Williams. Also graduating: kicker Joe Rheem, who hit 13 of 15 field goals as a senior and didn't miss an extra point until having one blocked in the final game of the season. VICTORIES: Shooters needed CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A happens we give up a turnover and an easy basket." In its last two games, Kansas has committed a combined 43 turnovers, which have led to 39 points for its opponents. "It was a lack of focus on our part," said junior guard Erica Hallam. "We just didn't execute when it came to the game." Shooting was another weakness that cursed Kansas against Texas-Arlington, and something that it will have to improve on to produce a solid effort against Sacred Heart. While junior forward Crysta Kemp produced a solid 11-19 shooting performance on Sunday, the rest of the Jayhawks shot only 9-32. "We were off balance," Henrickson said. "We need to be disciplined in shooting the right way every time. Saturday's showdown with UMKC will present another interesting matchup for Kansas. The Kangaroos shot a sizzling 58 percent in their season opener, a 74-70 home defeat to Drake. Kansas will try to counter UMKC's hot shooting with a defense that held Texas-Arlington to 35 percent shooting. The Kangaroos could also present the Jayhawks with an opportunity to break out of their rebounding woes. UMKC was out-rebounded 40-23 against Drake. Following the holiday break, Kansas will host Denver at 7:50 p.m. next Tuesday. — Edited by Steve Vockrodt A muddy, slippery course posed a potential threat of falling down in the middle of the tight pack. better than last year, when Chesang placed 48th despite 20-degree temperatures and reported 20 mph winds. This time the temperature was in the lower 50s. RUNNER: All-American now "I didn't even expect something like that," he said. "That's great. I just thought I'd finish in the top 15 and that's it." CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A But the conditions were much Chesang was the second sophomore to cross the line, behind Colorado runner Brent Vaughn, who finished fourth. Chesang edged out Vaughn at By finishing in the top 25, Chesang became the first Kansas runner to earn All-America honors in cross country since 1994, when Michael Cox and David Johnston received the honor in the last year Kansas qualified for nationals as a team. the finish at the Big 12 Championships. Coach Stanley Redwine said he was proud of Chesang. "His mindset is one of success," he said. "He goes out there and competes well." "Maybe next year I'll try to move up," he said. "Maybe sixth place, if all goes well." Chesang has a good shot at contending for the national title next year. But he's not thinking about a national championship quite yet. Edited by Johanna M. Maska DAVIDSON: Still helping team CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A "If they need some advice, I can talk to them," she said. "Not even on volleyball. It can just be school or boys." Brown, a freshman opposite hitter, said Davidson helped her adjust to college volleyball and college life. "She's been there before and had things land on her," Brown said. "She's just a great person to talk to." "She helps us know what's happening on the court," Brown said. Davidson stops short of taking credit for the recent successes of Kansas' perimeter hitters, but Brown said Davidson helped her adjust more quickly during matches. When Kansas fans see Davidson at home matches, she's usually retrieving stray balls on the court during warmups or recording stats on the bench. Fans at Saturday's match against Texas A&M saw her sing the alma mater with the Jayhawks' 15 active players, as well. "She's part of the team just like anyone else," Brown said. Davidson said she wanted to sing the alma mater one more time after the team defeats Colorado. The senior night match begins at 7 p.m. Saturday at Horejsi Family Athletics Center. The team travels to Lubbock, Texas, today. The Jayhawks will face the Texas Tech Red Raiders at 7 p.m. tomorrow. - Edited by Steve Vockrodt PROBLEMS: Wayne Simien Player of Week CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A "We did a terrible job with that," Self said. "We were kind of open, and when we were kind of open we shot it every time. We can't play that way." Kansas basketball notes After his 25-point, 14- rebound performance against Vermont last Friday, Kansas senior forward Wayne Simien was named Phillips 66 Big 12 Player of the Week. Simien earned his 23rd double-double of his career in the first half, scoring 10 points and grabbing 12 rebounds in the first 20 minutes. The senior finished 8 of 15 from the floor and 9 of 10 from the free-throw line. COACHES: Team on the rise Simien has earned the honor three times in his career,the last time coming the week of March 8 last season. - Edited by Johanna M. Maska CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A Mangino and his offensive coaching staff should be held responsible for not taking this program to the next level. These were my sentiments less than a week ago, and the victory against Missouri at Faurot Field didn't change my mind. I was ready to call Mangino out. This season has been a complete disaster. Someone should be held accountable for the ineptitude of the Kansas football team, whether it be Mangino, offensive coordinator Nick Quartaro or any of the other offensive coaches. With the surprisingly good play of the defense this year, Kansas could be 10-1 and coasting into the Big 12 Championship game. Instead, the Jayhawks ended 4-7, winning one game on the road and two in the conference. While it is easy to blame them, Kansas' problem isn't the coaches. The problem this season was a lack of on-field leadership, namely from the quarterback position. For some reason, Adam Barmann was not able to build on his performance from last season, and the backups were not able to provide any spark coming off the bench, with the exception of Brian Luke's performance at Missouri. Had Bill Whittemore been around this season, Kansas would have had one of its best seasons ever. The Jayhawks could have attained a shot at a major bowl game and a top-15 national ranking had there been adequate on-field leadership for this team. The defense shined every single weekend, but the offense was only up to the task four times. We can't write off Mangino or his staff just yet. Before his arrival in Lawrence three years ago, this football team was consistently getting blown out, at home and on the road. Gone are the days K-State would win 42-6, 64-0, 40-6, 52-14, 50-9 and 54-6, scores put up by the Wildcats against the Jayhawks in their last six meetings. Those beatings were not part of this year's team. After a successful 2003 campaign, Mangino's program faltered in what should have been a banner year for the Jayhawks. It's not his fault. Kansas was competitive in every single game this season. It had a opportunity to win all but one game, against the Sooners, and the Jayhawks even hung in with them for the first half. The performance this team put on this season should be applauded. It left everything on the field every single game. It's apparent that it gave its complete effort each and every weekend. This team may not have finished many games on top, but it never quit. Kansas teams of the past would have given up. Mangino didn't let his players do that this season. Kansas won't be playing in a bowl game this winter, but it did serve notice to the rest of the conference that this is a program on the rise. Gone are the days when Kansas was a guaranteed victory for most teams. Mangino has turned this team around. Next year, we'll see if it will translate into some victories. - Weinstein is an Overland Park senior in English. FATS LAWRENCE'S 1016 Mass.

I'm wearing pants! That is it, now get back to work. I'M A DESKIE BY CHRIS MOORE FOR THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Who is this guy? This is Xantos. He's the Deskie that knows EVERYTHING. Quieres perderte en el bosque. What in the world did he just say? Only he knows, Joe. Only HE knows. Today's Birthday (Nov. 23). Sure, there have been lots of obstacles, but most of them are in the past. With the help of a loved one who motivates you, the goal is achievable. Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is an 9. You're enthusiastic, and that's just great, but in your exuberance you could overlook a chore a roommate is depending upon you to do. That's not a good idea. Taurus (April 20-May 20) It's a good time of year to get rid of stuff. Sell it or give it away. If you're not sure, stack it into piles and decide over the next few days. Todav is a 5. Today is an 8. Gemini (May 21-June 21) A rabble-rousing crowd could get you in trouble with your boss, your teacher or some other authority figure. Exercise restraint. Cancer (June 22-July 22) You may not like to take orders HOROSCOPES from a person with strong opinions, but it will help you achieve rewards faster, if you can do just that. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 10. It may be hard to get away, but you can sure make plans. You can make it around the obstacles, too. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) today is a 5. Advice from your friends is wonderful, of course, but don't feel compelled to obey it all. Some of it has nothing to do with your current plans. ibra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is an 8. The potential for a conflict now is relatively high. Don't get a couple of hot heads stirred up. Stay cool. Encourage them to do likewise. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Todav is a 6. Continue to focus on your job, even if the money's unsteady. What you make depends on what you do, and to some extent, your good luck. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 9. Somebody loves you very much, and you probably know who. Be nice to that person even if they've never mentioned it out loud. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is a 6. Action is required, whether you want to or not. Agreement still hasn't been reached, but don't give up on that. What you want in the long term, remember, is comfort and security. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.18) Today is an 8 Today is an 8. You know what you want to accomplish, but you don't know how to do it. That's why master craftspeople write books and make instructional videos. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 7. Abundance is coming your way from something you've already done. It could be a rebate. If you've got one you haven't sent for, do that now.

The basketball team will take on the St. Joseph's Hawks at 9 tonight in the fieldhouse. Less anxiety less problems Kansas coach Bill Self says a calm team will aid 'Hawks vs. Hawks BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER For the Kansas men's basketball team last Friday, it wasn't a matter of doing too little on offense — it was a matter of doing it too quickly. Bad decisions led to a close game, when Kansas squeaked out a victory in its home opener against Vermont. "I think we weren't executing because we were moving too fast," junior forward Christian Moody said. "We had some energy flowing, and it caused us to make some bad decisions." The Jayhawks will get the opportunity to better focus their enthusiasm tonight, taking on the St. Joseph's Hawks at 9 p.m. in Allen Fieldhouse. Kansas shot just 34 percent in the first half of its 68-61 victory over Vermont, with Kansas coach Bill Self urging the players to calm their emotions. "He told all of us to slow down — we were going too fast," senior guard Aaron Miles said. "That's what we tried to do second half. The Jayhawks improved slightly in final 20 minutes, making 10 of their 23 attempts for 44 percent. After six exhibition games, including a Labor Day trip to Canada, Self said he thought his team would be more comfortable in its season opener against Vermont. "It was what I expected out of Vermont," Self said, "but I didn't think we'd play as anxious and tight." Kansas struggled in its half-court offense, often settling for a quick shot instead of making Vermont's defense work. "Our offense is based on ball reversal, and we didn't get it reversed," Moody said. "We took the early shot or tried to make something individually." Kansaslosestopspot inAPbasketballpoll Kansas dropped from its No.1 spot in the Associated Press poll despite the fact it did not lose last week. Wake Forest moved into the top position after last week's 97-76 victory against Georgia Washington and an 81-67 victory against Virginia Commonwealth in the preseason NIT. The Jayhawks defeated the Vermont Catamounts 68-61 Friday, but it was not enough to keep them in the No.1 position. "I'll take losing the No. 1 rank- ing a lot better after a win than a loss," Self said. "I didn't know you could move down if you don't lose," sophomore guard J.R. Giddens said. Kansas, which received one more first-place vote than Wake Forest, fell to No.2, followed by Georgia Tech, Syracuse and Illinois. "Cosch should bring tissue out on the court because everybody will be so upset," Langford joked. "But I think I'll find a way to wake up tomorrow." Kansas coach Bill Self said he was not concerned with the drop in the poll. Senior guard Keith Langford also made light of the subject. The Jayhawks' problems were illuminated because of their inability to score easy points in transition. --- Jesse Newuff and Miranda Lenning Kansas, which often relies on its defense to create offense, forced 10 Vermont turnovers, resulting in just eight fast-break points. Self said he expected improvement tonight with his team's lack of patience on offense. Kansas runner places nationally SEE PROBLEMS ON PAGE 9A Sophomore Benson Chesang seventh place BY FRANK TANKARK ftankark@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITER Kansas runner Benson Chesang capped off a phenomenal sophomore season yesterday with a seventh place finish out of 242 runners at the NCAA Cross Country Championships in Terre Haute. Ind. The race got off to a congested start when a crowd of the nation's best runners charged the front as the course narrowed. Chesang kept pace with the front runners as the lead pack thinned. "Just stay strong, man," Chesang, CHESANG Eldama Ravine, Kenya, sophomore, said. "That's what I was thinking." Distance coach Doug Clark said Chesang's steady, even pace helped him pick off competitors as the 10-kilometer race went on. Chesang completed the course in 30 minutes, 59.4 seconds — 22 seconds behind winner Simon Bairu of Wisconsin. Big 12 champion Colorado won both the men's and women's races. "J ust stay strong, man. That's what I was thinking." Benson Chesang Sophomore runner Chesang's brother Mathew, a Kansas State senior, finished five places behind him in 12th. Chesang said that despite winning the Big 12 Championships earlier this year, he did not think he would place as high as he did. SEE RUNNER ON PAGE 9A Teaching the trade BY BILL CROSS bcross@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Even if assistant can't play, she still helps the team The Kansas volleyball team will celebrate its four seniors on Saturday at its last home match of the season. But one of the most important members of this class, coach Ray Bechard said, is its fifth member: student assistant Renita Davidson. Davidson came to the Kansas three seasons ago as an outside hitter from Arlington, Texas. Injuries to both knees kept her mostly off the court during the past three seasons, and a torn hamstring late last season ended her career. She said she stayed involved with the team to be near her friends and the game she loved. As she prepares to become the first college graduate in her family, she helps the team as a manager, a scout and a friend. "I couldn't give it up," she said. She said she sometimes longed to be out on the court with her teammates, but she had no regrets. Bechard said Davidson's willingness "It was kind of hard at first," she said. "But I'd rather be able to get up in the morning and feel good and be able to walk." Davidson said she suffered last season when she dealt with injuries and watching her teammates play, but she had since learned to share in their fun. to stay with the team was important for the team's success. Davidson said her experience in the Big 12 Conference gave her a unique knowledge of the team's opponents, which she shared with the team's active "She's got a great role where she can share her knowledge," he said. "She knows the game and has great energy." PETER JOHNSON perimeter hitters including newcomers Emily Brown and Paula Caten. "I can tell some of the girls who haven't played at this level what the other girl's going to do," Davidson said. "Sometimes they do what I tell them, sometimes they don't, but they pay attention. They respect me a lot because they know I know the game." Davidson said that respect translated to trust in the locker room. John Traun/NSAN SEE DAVIDSON ON PAGE 9A Women's hoops needing victories BY PAUL BRAND pbrand@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER While many students will be going home for Thanksgiving break to feast on holiday foodstuffs, the Kansas women's basketball team will try to break the famine of a two-game losing streak by playing two home games over the vacation. Kansas dropped a close game to the West Coast All-Stars, 60-58, in its exhibition finale and lost a tight decision in Sunday's regular season opener to Texas-Arlington, 53-49. At 0-1, Kansas will face Sacred Heart (1-0) at 7 p.m. tomorrow before hosting UMKC on Saturday for a 1 p.m. tip-off. UMKC was 0-1 prior to yesterday's game at Creighton. In the young season, the Jayhawks have shown particular weaknesses in defensive rebounding, shooting and ball-handling. "We need to rebound better and work on boxing out," said coach Bonnie Henrickson following the loss to Texas-Arlington. "We let them run to the rim and get offensive rebounds." --- The Pioneers have a young roster without much size. The Jayhawks will face a starting lineup tomorrow that will likely include three sophomores, one junior and one senior. At 6-foot-1, sophomore forward Jasmine Walker represents the tallest inside threat for the Pioneers. Sacred Heart may prove to be a good opportunity for Kansas to pick up its first victory. In Sacred Heart's season opener, a 66-53 victory last Friday at Yale, its victory depended heavily on points off turnovers. Of the 66 points the team scored, 35 came directly off the 33 Yale turnovers forced by the Pioneers' defense. Turnovers have been a problem for the lavahwaks so far in the season. "We had too many possessions where we had four of our five players running the offense correctly," Henrickson said.

As for a potential second-round match against Washington, Bechard said he was excited about possibly facing coach Jim McLaughlin, who coached at Kansas State before going to Washington in 2000. "We'll get some video on Tuesday and start breaking it down and start prepping for them on Wednesday," he said. "That'd be awesome," Bechard said. "Obviously we have a lot of work to do before we worry about that." He said preparing for the California school would be a challenge because he had not seen them play.

An unwanted acquaintance A stalker infected a student's life, leaving her fearful of what he would do next BY RUPAL GOR rgor@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR STAFF WRITER Knock. Knock. Sitting in her bedroom in Naismith Hall, this University of Kansas student kept as quiet as she could. She didn't want the visitor knocking on the door to know she was there. She was trying to stay away from him. She said she met him — a tall, brown-eyed, 21-year-old student — at a party in February 2003. He wanted to date her. And then the stalking began www.kansan.com Knock. Knock. The woman is a 21-year-old biology major from Western Kansas. She was the victim of a stalker from February 2003 until the end of school that May. She did not want to be named because she feared this man would begin stalking her again. Stalking is defined as intentional, malicious and repeated following and harassment of another person, according to Kansas law. While the numbers are not definite, Detective Division Sergeant Mike Patrick of the Lawrence Police Department said stalking was "not uncommon." In 2003, 12 people in Lawrence reported they were stalked. So far in 2004, the police department has not seen any stalking reports. But Sgt. Dan Ward of the police department said there was a current investigation under way that involved a man stalking two women. Victims of stalking can get help from Lawrence police and resources on campus such as Counseling and Psychological Services at Watkins Memorial Health Center and the Emily Taylor Resource Center. Counselors at the resource center see eight to 10 stalking victims each year, said Kathy Rose Mockry, director of programs at the center. "That number discourages people and reinforces the misperception that stalking is not an issue on campus," Rose-Mockry said. People think stalking is rare because students do not get help or may think they don't need counseling, said Rose-Mockry. She said the number of students stalked each year was uncertain because some did not notify police or turned to their friends and family for help. The beginning At the party, the woman remembered, the man started hitting on her, asking her to go out with him. She politely refused. Still, he got her cell phone number from a mutual friend and began calling her. The phone calls, coming from random pay phones, sometimes added up to 30 in one night and into the morning, she said. She kept a log of the phone numbers and dates the man called. One early morning, she said, he called her from two phone numbers 15 times between 3:30 a.m. and 5:37 a.m. He would say "bitch" or "whore" and sometimes spit into the phone. Other times, he would call and hang up or leave long, drawn-out messages. Her phone would ring so much her battery would die. "I got these phone calls for about a good week," she said. "That's when I decided to change my number." Somehow he found that number, and she This woman was the victim of a stalker from February to May 2003. The stalker harassed her by repeatedly calling her and stopping by her residence hall many times.

Instead, members of the sorority will gather to remember a sister who died over the Thanksgiving holiday. Bethany Weidensaul, Wichita junior, died Tuesday night when her car collided with a semi truck. She was trying WEIDENSAUI to avoid another accident on the Kansas turnpike during her trip home. Anna Clovis, Alpha Chi Omega president, said the chapter would probably have a candle-lighting service for Weidensaul, who was the house manager. . "It's just so hard because she was an incredibly kind person," Clovis, also a copy editor at The University Daily Kansan, said. "She gave of herself all the time." Clovis said the chapter now has the responsibility of deciding how to continue her "leacav of kindness." A memorial scholarship, naming a star after Weidensaul and purchasing a brick for the Alpha Chi Omega brick garden are among memorial ideas, Clovis said. She said chapter members would help make the decision tonight. Instead, the position turnovers were postponed until next week. Weidensaul was scheduled to turn over her house manager position tonight, something Clovis said Weidensaul was looking forward to. Weidensaul was buried in the Kechi Township outside of Wichita on Saturday. Her service was at 10 a.m. Saturday at the Park Place Ministry Center in Wichita. About 40 Alpha Chi Omega members made the trip to Wichita for the service and placed red carnations on her casket before she was buried. The carnation was Weidensaul's favorite flower and also the chapter's designated flower. Weidensaul's father, Scott Weidensaul, said the funeral was a celebration of his daughter's life.

Last year the market made more than $10,000. The people at the ECM thought promoting fair trade would be one way to help the large inequalities in the world. Thad Holcombe, religious advisor at the Student Involvement and Leadership Center, said. This year the ECM created a pamphlet to go along with the items bought. It is global economics brought into a clear focus. Holcombe said. Nyana Miller, Shawne senior, is volunteering at the market and said she accepted at the market. has always been a supporter of fair trade. "As college students, we may not have an opportunity to buy fair trade, but we should still try to understand it," Miller said. Fair trade embodies several qualities. It begins with a living wage — an amount of money that covers bills with money leftover — for artisans, and stable and fair prices for farmers' crops. It does not allow forced labor or exploited child labor and it promotes a healthy, safe working environment with equal employment opportunities. 100 SEE SALE ON PAGE 3A Kit Leffler/KANSAN The University Daily Kansan 111 Stauffer-Flint Hall 1435 Jayhawk Blvd. Lawrence, KS 66045 (785) 864-4810 © 2004 The University Daily Kansan Margie Wakefield, Lawrence resident, shops at the Fair Trade Holiday Market yesterday afternoon at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave. "It's going to be hard not shopping for myself," Wakefield said.

Employees at a Best Buy Co. store in Olathe said they had shoppers waiting outside their doors at 1 a.m., five hours before the store was set to open and start selling early-bird specials. Sara Skinner, manager of guest serv ices at a Target Corp. store in Wichita, said the line of shoppers for her store stretched to a Red Lobster restaurant across the parking lot. "We're just excited to have all these people," Skinner said, adding that the crowd numbers were about equal to what the store saw a year ago. Electronics and toys were the big sellers so far, she said. The Washington, D.C.-based National Retail Federation is predicting a 4.5 percent increase in sales over last year, which is slightly lower than the 5. 1 percent increase retailers saw the year before. Analysts say high gas prices and a still unsteady job market will keep some shoppers more thrifty this year. Overall, the federation predicted 130 million shoppers will come out this weekend. Moore, at Hutchinson Mall, said they aren't all women, either. "We've had more men out shopping, it seems," she said. "I don't know if the wives finally said, 'OK, I need help.'"

Someone also taped a note to her door trying to convince her to date him, saying he was not a stalker and he was not a "psycho." This woman's stalking situation is similar to other cases that Rose-Mocky has heard. Some are more extreme and threatening, she said. But similar behaviors include repeated e-mails and phone calls, repeated following, threatening notes and persistence. Threats can be overt,'she said, when a stalker is always bothering someone. Or the threats can be physically threatening. "It's persistence that makes people more concerned for their safety." Rose-Mockry said. People stalk because they want power and control, she said. Rose-Mockry said it was a matter of not being able to take "no" for an answer. People who stalk have difficulty controlling their anger, she said, and sometimes have been victims of abuse earlier in life. But people who don't meet this profile do stalk as well, Rose-Mockry said. The woman decided to get help and filed a report with Lawrence police on April 21, 2003, saying the stalker was harassing her with phone calls. She also said the stalker threw rocks at her boyfriend's house and reported it as vandalism. That's when the police intervened, telling the stalker to stop. But he denied everything. The woman wanted to get a restraining order, she said, but she didn't know how to get one. She filed a report with the police, but the district attorney's office did not prosecute him. Police intervention STALKING STATISTICS IN LAWRENCE Police do intervene, especially at the request of the victim, he said. They speak to the stalker and tell that person not to have further contact with the individual. "Some victims say they just want the individual to be talked in to hopes of stopping the stalking." he said. These are the numbers of criminal reports of stalking according to the Lawrence Police Department All Statutes Incident Summary criminal reports. The offenses that occur are usually misdemeanors, such as slashing car tires and leaving notes, Ward said. And in most misdemeanor instances, police can't arrest the stalker unless the offense was done in the police's Year Number reported 2004 0 2003 12 2002 6 2001 5 2000 6 1999 2 Source: Lawrence Police Source: Lawrence Police Department presence. "so unless we see them do it we can't arrest them on the spot." Ward said. A lot of times police intervention does not stop the stalker from continuing to harass the individual, Pattrick said. Ward said sometimes the district attorney's office prosecuted stalkers. The district attorney's office, however, has not gathered statistics of how many cases the office has prosecuted, said District Attorney Christine Kenney. In a case of stalking, documenting what the stalker has done is important. But police have to consider both sides of the case. "It's very difficult when you have a two-sided argument," Pattrick said. "If one person says this person's doing it and the other person's denying it, it's very difficult to take one side over the other." Ward said even if the victim knew who the stalker was, it could be hard for the police to prove it and could take a long time. Law enforcement officials can get evidence by obtaining a search warrant or subpoena to look at telephone records that are electronically recorded. If a victim comes into contact with the stalker at a public place, police can contact businesses to find out if the victim and stalker were there. Information can be verified through interviews with people who have seen the stalker bothering the victim, Pattrick said. Letters and e-mails are another form of evidence. Ward said any time a person thought he or she was a victim of stalking, that person should contact the police department right away. Most times, the situation would be minor, but contacting the police would ensure the individual's safety by stopping threatening behavior before it escalated, he said. "You should take it serious In this woman's situation, she had to prove her stalker was intentionally bothering her. The woman had recorded evidence of telephone calls, which would be considered an "electronic means" of stalking under the Kansas Statute No. 21-3438. The statute defines stalking and what constitutes a credible threat of stalking. and you should report it and by no means try to deal with it on your own." Ward said. According to the statute, a credible threat can be verbal or written even if it is communicated via electronic means, which includes telephones, cellular phones, computers and pagers. Kenney said usually a person committed other crimes that were considered stalking. They included telephone harassment and going to the individual's house. An individual has to build a record of at least three series of acts over a period of time, she said. The district attorney's office did not prosecute the woman's stalker, but he was reported for harassment and vandalism. A stalking case has a severity level of 10, which she said was not a high-level felony. A person with the worst criminal history who is prosecuted and convicted as a stalker would have to serve 13 months. The minimum sentence, without criminal history, would be five months. "Stalking is generally not the crime we convict these people of." Kenney said. "A person is most likely not going to go to prison because of a low criminal history." Kenney said. "But it would get them into court records so that this person is known." The University deals with crimes that happen on campus. Otherwise, Lawrence police take the cases. Captain Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said no cases of stalking had been reported since 2000. Bailey said he had talked to a couple of students during the past few years regarding stalking. He said each situation regarding stalkers was unique. "A lot of times they don't realize that what they're doing bothers a person," Bailey said. "The person needs to be told the behavior is bothering you or upsetting you." Persistence The stalker wrote them an e-mail on April 23, 2003, stating that the woman's boyfriend should "watch his back at all The woman began dating someone after that February party. Eventually, he was threatened too, she said. "It said that if I was smart I should stay away from [my boyfriend], and he asked me to call him because he was the 'love of my life' and I 'just didn't know it vet,'" she said. times" and that the boyfriend was "going to be dealt with in due time." Men are victims of stalkers as well. But they often are reluctant to get help until it becomes serious, said Rose-Mockry. Men think they can handle it, she said. Having a stalker makes people wonder what will happen next. Rose-Mockry encourages students to be more aware of their surroundings and to let friends and neighbors know if they feel unsafe. In this woman's situation, she turned to the police, her friends, brother and boyfriend. She also bought Mace and notified Naismith staff that she was being stalked. Tawnya Metzler was her resident assistant that year. Naismith staff banned the stalker from the dorm, Metzler said. Metzler escorted the victim to her car when she needed it. She also notified the front desk that the woman would need an escort at all times. "Not being alone every minute of every day for three months really starts to get to you because you just want some time alone," the woman said. On May 1, 2003, she was at her boyfriend's house hanging out and watching a movie. Her boyfriend answered a knock at the door, and somebody they did not know asked for her. He was a young man in his teens who wanted to sleep with the woman. Apparently, the stalker had stolen a picture of her, she said, went on to Lawrence and Kansas City chat rooms on the Internet and posed as her. "He had gotten online and posted the picture pretending to be me in chat rooms, inviting guys over to [my boyfriend's] house looking for me to have sex." she said. She later found out her picture had been posted when two young men called her phone number because the stalker gave it out on the Internet. Not only did the situation embarrass the young men when they found out it was a mistake, it embarrassed her. She was afraid she would be walking on campus and guys would notice her and remember her as that girl on the Internet wanting to have sex. Students who are being stalked can get individual counseling or group counseling, said Frank DeSalvo, assistant dean of students and director of These kits are available at the Center for Campus Life at room 400 in the Kansas Union. The Emily Taylor Resource Center gives out up to 20 kites a year. They include: A book on stalking and how to protect yourself called Stalking: A Handbook for Victims by Emily Spence Diehl. STALKING RESOURCES KITS A log for documenting the situation and any incidents to keep track of common incidents and a resource to report to the police. Envelopes to save documents such as e-mails, messages on windshields and written notes. A Call 911 card to put in the windshield that notifies police that the stalker is following the victim to that person's car. A camera to take a picture of the situation or even the stalker. Helping Crime Victims: A Guide to Victim Assistance Programs in Kansas from the Kansas attorney general's office A whistle Brochures on stalking and stalking restraining orders from the Kansas Coalition Against Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS). Both are offered through CAPS. Other places on campus and in Lawrence that provide stalking kit: Student Legal Services in Lawrence that provide stalking kits: Registrar's office "They think, 'Look how angry she is, I must be important,'" he said. University Ombudsman Victims should not even be polite or say hello. DeSalvo encourages victims to walk straight ahead and to ignore the stalker. If their stalker bothers them, they should yell out. Students should avoid speaking or coming into contact with their stalkers as much as possible, DeSalvo said. Stalkers want to receive any sort of acknowledgement or behavior from the victim. Office of Equal Opportunity Student Legal Services Department of Student Housing GaDuGi SafeCenter KAIDU GI SAFETY OFFICE KU Public Safety Office KO Public Safety Office Women's Transitional Care Services Douglas Country District Attorney's Office Pamela Botts, associate director and counselor at CAPS, speaks to a couple students each year about stalking. Stalking is rare, she said, but it does happen. It ranges from continuing to call someone, showing up at class or that person's dorm. Botts said, or it could be extreme, such as damaging a vehicle or talking to the student's friends. Watkins Memorial Health Center Headquarters Counseling Center Often students feel powerless, he said. But they can think of ways to gain control of their lives. DeSalvo advises victims to avoid typical settings where they may run into their stalkers. Someone, such as a friend, should always escort a victim. If the stalker is in the victim's class, he said, students should notify faculty if it's a problem. Source: Kathy Rose-Mockry, Emily Taylor Resource Center program director. "A lot of women are reluctant to do that because they've been taught not to," DeSalvo said. Moving on The woman said having a stalker changed her life. She said she was more paranoid now than she was before. Being from a small town, she trusted people too much, she said. Now she has become wary. She wants others who were being stalked to know it is hard to get back to a normal life. But she advised that a person's own safety should be taken more seriously and that people should get help. The woman's stalker is no longer at the University and stopped stalking her when classes ended in spring of 2003, she said. Today, she said her friends teased her because she was still cautious about her safety. "It's ridiculous to always have a feeling in the back of your mind that you're being watched when walking down the street, or having the fear of someone grabbing you at night," she said. Although she had a tough experience with a stalker, she said she was no longer afraid. She feels just like any other college student, concentrating on school and friends, she said. To this day, though, she carries Mace on her key chain. "You never know who you'll meet," she said.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Tuition increase opponents shouldn't be belittled This letter is in response to the letter by Marynell Jones and the correction submitted by the Financial Aid Department (Nov. 19) responding to the two columns against the CLAS College Specific Tuition, the latter of which we wrote. The Financial Aid Department does a wonderful job under difficult circumstances. The problem with need-based funding, however, is systemic. According to the numbers we have from the 2003-2004 school year, the majority of students who were eligible did not receive the KU Tuition Grant (KUTG). If many people are receiving it this year, that is wonderful. However, the definition of "many" is still unclear, and the method for disbursement is questionable. Eligibility for the KUTG is based off of your "Estimated Family Contribution," as calculated on the FAFSA application, which must be less than $12,000 to be eligible. However, the second requirement is to meet a "priority deadline" of March 1. In other words, a student and their parents must have their taxes filed and FAFSA processed (which can take several weeks) before application for the grant. This is an unrealistic expectation, primarily because students and parents may not be able to file their taxes quickly enough, and we all know how time consuming filing FAFSA forms can be. Our argument is that this system does not work, and is not a good model for need-based aid. Therefore, the aid proposed as part of the new tuition should not be based on it. More discussion is needed. If the tuition increase is going to happen, a better system of aid must be created. It is clear that there are different interpretations of the data, both from the team proposing the tuition and from the Financial Aid Office. A legitimate conversation is needed that acknowledges the pros and cons of the system. Jones' point that we have been given a rare chance to make decisions about a tuition increase is well taken. That includes the ability to say "no," which is, in fact, a completely legitimate exercise of our power. The last meeting scheduled for this semester stressed the importance of dialogue. We assume this means that we should be able to converse as adults. Implying that those who do not agree with the tuition increase are uneducated and simply "jumping on the bandwagon" is bellttling and dismissive. Those of us who oppose it have substantial reasons to do so. What this debate needs is an actual dialogue. So far, the public meetings have been sales pitches complete with Power-Point presentations and testimonials. There is inherently wrong with this, but it makes dialogue difficult. People who question the tuition feel rebuffed. At the Nov. 18 meeting there was a good dialogue, but it was after the presentation. True discussion is desperately needed. Implying the opposition is full of ill-informed bandwagon jumpers is not helpful. Both sides need to work to communicate and be open to opposing views.

American society lacks responsibility The sense of taking responsibility for one's actions seems to be slowly dying, as people want more to be less accountable for the decisions they make, and the inevitable consequences some of those decisions have. More often, people want to act in ways that are reckless to themselves, their environment or to the people around them. Today's society is driven by a sense of every man for himself, or woman for herself, meaning that people will do whatever it takes to get what they want, regardless of the sometimes negative effects their choices will have. Almost everyone acts this way at some point, for some reason. COMMENTARY This is a trend that is visible in large businesses and corporations, with the sole purpose is to make money, using whatever methods are necessary to gain the most profit at the least cost. While there is nothing inherently wrong with wanting to work efficiently and productively, it becomes a serious problem when the rights of others are jeopardized through a large company's use of sweatshop and child labor, irresponsible disposal of chemical waste and price inflation/wage reduction. Corporations should be made to take responsibility for their actions against the rights of human beings. However, this rarely happens at the level necessary to ensure a fair situation for all involved, because of personal monetary interests greed COMMENTARY Corporations are one aspect of society. Another more subtle, yet possibly more ominous, form of voluntary irresponsibility is in daily interactions. People interact through friendships, romantic relationships, academic and professional settings, family and various other ways. Within these connections, people tell white lies, keep secrets, cheat and steal to get what they want at the time, not thinking about the long-term effects of these actions, even if they are well aware of them at the time. SARAH ZAFAR opinion@kansan.com In a culture where telling white lies and withholding the truth is commonplace in most situations, it is difficult to get past these obstacles, but not impossible. People want something, and they want it right away, and are often willing to bypass the more responsible option for the one that will get them what they want. This instant gratification impulse is something we are born with, but many people have yet to grow out of it. The desire for instant gratification is dangerous to the long-term stability of our culture. This might seem like an exaggeration, but when faced with the current state of our country, including high crime, international tensions, a lacking public education system, etc., it might be wise to examine our culture from within rather than blame outside forces. For example, the funds are available for education, but they are not being allotted there because people choose to direct their attentions to military directives that are funding an irresponsible overseas campaign, now known to be based on another little white lie. It is not in the best interests of our country and the countries involved in this conflict that are at the forefront of our leaders' minds, but rather, personal motivations that alienate a majority of people, often even without their knowledge. In a culture where telling white lies and withholding the truth is commonplace in most situations, it is difficult to get past these obstacles, but not impossible. Deciding which is more important — what you want now, or what will be better later — is one of the keys to overcoming the trends of instant gratification that are everywhere in our society. It might seem like a hopeless cause now, or maybe one not worth it to you, but overall, quality of life will improve if people take the time to think about the consequences of their actions. Zafar is a Wichita senior in history. U.S. should use its power carefully The discussion in my human geography class was centered on the distribution of power between the governments of the world and whether that distribution was equally balanced. The majority of the class felt that, yes, the balance of power around the world was equal, and I found myself standing as the lone dissenter. I had to wonder in what world it was that my classmates were living. Did they actually believe that Argentina held as much economic sway as China, or that in the chambers of the United Nations, Mexico possesses as much influence as the United States? I was shocked in class the other day, which doesn't happen all that often. The balance of power greatly favors of the Western industrialized world and those countries in possession of nuclear arms. Of course, the most significant member of both groups is the United States. JOHN BARRETT opinion@kansan.com COMMENTARY The United States remains the one superpower on the planet, with military expenditures that match every other nation in the world combined. We are the wealthiest, strongest, most productive country, and now we call the shots on the world stage. MUNDO At this point, we actually have little or no obligation to any other country in the world. The U.S. can act unilaterally on international issues as it pleases, pull out We find ourselves as the paradigm of Murphy's golden rule, which is "whoever has the gold, makes the rules." of treaties when it sees fit, and invade countries, whose policies or leaders we don't agree with. However, there is another "golden rule" we should be familiar with. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"—an old proverb that is a part of most major religions. The proverb is also something that I feel that my country has done a very poor job upholding recently. Yet that was exactly what we tried to do in Vietnam, and rings true in many of the conflicts we have interjected ourselves into. We would never want or accept an outside party coming into our country, telling us that our way of doing things was incorrect and then allow them to impose a new system of order that they claimed was in our best interest. The war in Iraq is the most contemporary example, as we were actually seeking to liberate the people of the country from an oppressive regime and introduce democracy along the way. People now even characterize the War on Terror as a war of ideologies with the Arab world. But who are we to tell anyone that our ideology is the right one? However, that does not give us the right to tell a sovereign nation how to conduct its own business, a role that is becoming more familiar with each day of the Bush Doctrine. Saddam Hussein was a terrible dictator and no one disputes that. But there are many brutal regimes in the world, with our communist trading partner China being one of them. For us to violate the rule of a nation state's sovereignty in a humanitarian crisis or for reasons of world safety, it is imperative to involve all countries of the world in the process A demonstration of why outside forces must intervene is always required to obtain the support of the rest of the world. Without passing this global test, we just look like a great big bully.

'Whose Line' comedians draw more than 1,300 BY AUSTIN CASTER acaster@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WINTER Last night at the Lied Center, Brad Sherwood had to confess a crime to Colin Mochrie. What made it harder than most confessions was the fact that he did not know what he was confessing. national The two comedians became famous on Whose Line Is It Anyway?, an improvisational comedy show on ABC. After several creative guesses, Sherwood admitted to deflating the Pillsbury Doughboy, goosing the president and exposing himself to a blind person while wearing a muumu, striped toesocks and a witch's hat that made him invisible with a bar of soap at Albino's Tanning Salon in Mongolia. The comedians performed two hours of sketches from the show, adding twists and content that would not be allowed on television, Sherwood said. "It may seem like I'm leading him in the wrong direction, but that's just because I want to screw with him," Mochrie said. The comedians performed in front of an audience of more than 1,300, said Bryan Adkinson, event coordinator at the Lied Center. They entertained the audience using only their wits and imaginations. Audience members shouted suggestions throughout the performance, making each game unique. The comedians broke the ice with a game called moving bodies. Two audience members had to move the comedians' bodies throughout the sketch. Mochrie gave instructions, showing how to make them move. "If you want him to go home with you, right there is good." Mochrie said while pointing at Sherwood's anatomy. The comedians travelled to a Belgium brewery on Mochrie's imaginary moped. Audience members participated throughout most of the games. One highlight included an improvised rap song about an audience member Sherwood nicknamed M.C. Bear. Nick Weiser enjoyed the live performance more than watching the show on television. He said the final sketch made him laugh the most. Mochrie and Sherwood added a few new twists to a game featured on television. In the original, the comedians improvise a conversation starting each sentence with consecutive letters of the alphabet. For the live show, they made the sketch more dangerous. - Edited by Anna Clovis "Usually there's a typical West. Coast style where they play a faster offense," she said.

The "selective admissions" standards are part of long-term goals listed in the University's self-study that will be submitted to the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, which will send a reaccreditation team to Kansas in January. "At the undergraduate level," the report says, "the institution plans to undertake a program to build public and legislative support for the University to move from its current policy of qualified admissions to selective admissions for undergraduate students." The current admissions standards, which apply to the six state universities, were implemented for the fall 2001 freshman class. The standards require students to meet one of three criteria to be admitted to a state university; Rank in the top third of their high school graduating class; maintain a 2.0 grade-point average using a college track curriculum; or score at least a 21 on the ACT.

The girls thanked their coaches, families, friends, and fans for the support they received during their time at KU. The Kansas volleyball team honored its four seniors before and after its 3-1 victory against Colorado Saturday night. Setter Ashley Bechard, libero Jill Dorsey, middle blocker Ashley Michaels and outside hitter Lindsey Morris started and finished the match in the lineup together. Before the contest, the four seniors and senior student assistant Renita Davidson, a scholarship player whose career was ended by two knee injuries and a torn hamstring, walked on the court with their parents to the applause of the near-sellout crowd of more than 1,200 fans. Many of the fans were friends and family of the four active seniors, all of whom are from Kang. Dorsey, who hails from Wellsville, said the other seniors were some of her best friends. "We're a bunch of Kansas girls. I played club ball since I was six years old with a lot of them," she said. "They've been around playing volleyball for as long as I can remember, and it's been a fun four years with them." Coach Ray Bechard said the seniors had a better winning percentage during their four years than any other group since 1983, when Kansas joined the Big 8 Conference. Dorsey and Michaels contributed the most on the court. They have both been key parts of the team since their freshman year in 2001, when Dorsey played in 30 matches and Michaels played in 25. They are both candidates for postseason conference honors this year. Dorsey recorded her 1,000th dig on Sept. 19 in home match against North Dakota State, while Michaels became the eighth player in Kansas history with 1,000 kills Nov. 20 at Oklahoma Ashley Bechard, Ray's daughter, made her most significant contribution to the team during its first-ever tournament season in 2003, when she started the first 13 matches of the season in place of injured starter Andi Rozum. She scored the matchending kill against Colorado Saturday. Ashley Bechard is also a copy editor for The University Daily Kansan. "She was in the net, but they didn't call it," the smiling Ray Bechard said after the match. Morris started several matches late last season and early this season in place of the injured Jana Correa before suffering an injury of her own in practice. She returned to the lineup Nov. 17 against Texas in a limited role where she played only in the back. "I've never really been strong there, but I'm working hard to get that way," said Morris, who had three dips on Saturday. Each senior gave a tearful speech thanking the fans, coaches, families and teammates after the match. 1 Kit Leffler/KANSAN Senior libero Jill Dorsey holds back tears while thanking her parents for their support Saturday night at the Horesei Family Athletics Center. The game, a 3-1 victory against Colorado, was the final regular season match for the four KU seniors. - Edited by Steve Schmidt Jayhawk swimmer earns top national honor BY NORA KELLAM nkellam@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWINTER Kansas senior swimmer Amy Gruber was named National Collegiate Swimmer of the Week by CollegeSwimming.com after her strong performance at the Nike Cup, in Chapel Hill, N.C., Nov. 18-20. Gruber is the first lavwhack to ever receive the honor. Gruber was selected by a panel of collegiate coaches and nominated by coaches, sports information directors, conference representatives and CollegeSwimming.com staffers. "This is a huge honor," Gruber said. "I didn't expect to receive this honor and am very excited about it. This definitely helps the team and shows how well we swam at the Nike Cup. It is a good stepping stone for our team this season." At the Nike Cup, Gruber became the first Jayhawk woman swimmer to record an NCAA 'A Standard time as she won the 100- meter freestyle event with a time of 49.70 — the sixth-fastest time recorded in the nation this year. She also collected three individual second place finishes in the 50 freestyle, with an NCAA provisional qualifying time of 22.99 — the eighth-fastest time in the nation this year. She finished second in the 100 butterfly in a time of 54.58, and in the 100 backstroke with a time of 56.14. Each individual time was the best recorded by a Kansas swimmer this season. Gruber also competed as a member of each of Kansas' top relay teams at the Nike Cup. The 200 medley relay team finished in first place with a time of 1:43.33. The 200 freestyle (1:34.06), the 400 freestyle (3:24.47) and the 400 medley (3:46.60) relay teams each finished in second place. The 800 freestyle relay team finished in third with a time of 7:27.09. Each of the relay times were the best recorded by Jayhawk relay teams this season. "Amy's performance was very special at the Nike Cup," Kansas coach Clark Campbell said, "Achieving an NCAA 'A' Standard time was a first for the Jayhawks and we are very proud of her for that and for this honor. Her performance was a direct reflection of how our entire program performed at the Nike Cup."

Two of Kansas' first three points were service aces. The Jayhawks carried the momentum of their game three comeback into game four, "That ace to error ratio is something we've improved since we were struggling last month," Bechard said. He said continued improvement in serving and blocking would determine whether the team could be successful in possible NCAA tournament matches Bechard said his team was intent on winning because of senior night and tournament implications. "It was a pretty quiet locker room. Usually the music's pretty loud and there's a lot of noise in there," he said. "You could tell there was a certain level of focus tonight." Junior middle blocker Josi Lima led the Jayhawks' rejuvenated blocking with eight total blocks. She also had 16 kills, second only to sophomore outside hitter Jana Correa's 17. Colorado middle blocker Allie Griffin also had 17. Kansas was ranked second in the country in blocking during its 9-0 non-conference season, but rapidly declined in early Big 12 contests. The victories against Texas Tech and Colorado gave the Jawhaws a 19-11 record to end the regular season, the third best finish since Bechard came to Kansas in 1998. — Edited by Steve Schmidt STRUGGLES: Jayhawks defeat Kangaroos for second consecutive victory, 47-36 CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10A Again it was Kemp, who led Kansas with 17 points and 12 rebounds, who jump-started the Jayhawk offense in the second half, sinking a hook shot with two seconds left on the shot clock. Kansas missed its next 12 shots and UMKC turned the ball over on six of its first seven second half possessions. "We are learning to be pretty good defensively and the offense will come," coach Bonnie Henrickson said. "Offensively, we are disappointed, but when we run things and execute, good Even with the numerous UMKC miscues, Kansas only scored 11 points off the turnovers. The Kangaroos finished with 21 turnovers, nine more than the lajhawks. UMKC tried to make a run at Kansas in the second half, but well-timed scoring helped quell the threat. At the five minute mark, junior center Liz Obrecht converted a spin move into a bucket and a foul, and her free throw pulled UMKC to within six. 37-31. On the next possession, Kansas junior guard Kaylee Brown nailed a three-point things happen. UMKC did not convert on the offensive end and a Burras turnaround jumper put the Jayhawks up by 11.

Nevada, with a 3-0 record, is coming off a 58-47 victory against Georgia on Friday. "I hope our fans are juiced for that game because we definitely owe them one," Self said. Kansas players have also become motivated because of flip-flops in the rankings. After a 68-61 victory over Vermont two weeks ago, Kansas dropped in both polls from No. 1 to No. 2. Last Tuesday, Kansas gave its most complete performance in a 91-51 rout against St. Joseph's. "It caused everybody to come out and play harder," freshman forward C.J. Giles said, "just to prove to people that we are the top team." Though the players realize the rankings don't mean much in November, they still said it had an impact. "Being No. 1 right now is not going to win anybody any championships," freshman guard Russell Robinson said. "We just try to use that drop as motivation." Giles said he believed Tuesday's outing was just a beginning in proving the team belongs among the elite. "I think as we go on we're going to prove a lot more," Giles said.

The venue has a new name -- Mizzou Arena. Billionaires Bill and Nancy Laurie, who received the naming rights after giving Missouri $25 million to help build the arena, gave them back to the school on Tuesday. In March, they had named the building Paige Sports Arena, for their daughter, Elizabeth Paige Laurie. Paige Laurie didn't attended Missouri; she is a graduate of the University of Southern California, and was accused on national television last week of paying a friend to do her school work for her. Even before the accusations of cheating, the name the Lauries picked for the arena sparked snickers on campus and howls of outrage from some alumni. Scott Kampmeyer, a 1995 graduate and president of the Los Angeles-Orange County alumni chapter, said Missouri graduates in California were embarrassed and angry at the name originally, and were glad now that it will change. "They could've found someone who's done more for the University and athletic department than some girl who never even went to Mizzou," he said. "It gives you an image of a spoiled little rich girl whose daddy bought her a basketball arena." The Lauries did not return messages Wednesday left at their Columbia home and at the offices of Paige Sports Entertainment, the company through which they own the NHL's St. Louis Blues, or with the Blues. Nancy Laurie is the daughter of the late Bud Walton, co-founder of Wal-Mart Stores Inc. March she would become the arena's namesake. Paige Laurie has denied repeated requests for interviews since the announcement in Kampmeyer said after the cheating allegations surfaced, some alumni contacted him, angry and planning to drop their memberships. He said the Lauries' giving up the naming rights should ease tensions. "When they decided to relinquish the naming rights, I think that was a relief," Kampmeyer said. "It's kind of a tough time to be a Missouri sports fan now." SOCCER Smith gets Academic All-American honors Kansas soccer junior forward Caroline Smith has been selected to the ESPN Academic All-America Second Team. "It reflects her work ethic in both the classroom and on the soccer field," Kansas coach Mark Francis said. "Obviously, she has done a great job in both and we are very proud of her." Smith led the Jayhawks this season in goals (11), assists (10) and points, while maintaining a 3.88 grade point average. Smith is a biology and psychology major. She plans to attend medical school. "It's a great honor to be recognized for my hard work in the classroom as well as on the field," Smith said. "It is also a Athletics calendar TODAY Men's basketball vs. Nevada at home at 8 p.m. 1.

Kansas City's woes continue with loss The soccer team enjoyed its most successful season in program history,winning its first Big 12 Conference championship. Kansan staff reports THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Nate Kaeding made up for missing two field goals in the finest possible way. Kaeding booted a tiebreaking 43-yarder with 2:24 left, lifting San Diego past Kansas City 34-31 yesterday after a wild second half that saw Dante Hall drop the ball during a 77-year kickoff return and then hold onto it for an electrifying 96-yard touchdown runback. Kaeding's kick gave the Chargers (8-3) their first win in Kansas City in eight tries and followed Donnie Edwards' interception of Trent Green's pass on the Chiefs 32. Kansas City (3-8) seems headed for its worst season since 1988. Hall, who took the NFL by storm last year when he returned five kicks for touchdowns, was just a few steps away from turning the second-half kickoff into a touchdown when he dropped the ball. The Chargers recovered on the 5, and a few minutes later tied it at 17 on Kaeding's 25-yard field goal. Then things got really wild. Derrick Blaylock scooted 22 yards for a touchdown and a Kansas City lead that stayed at 23-17 when Lawrence Tynes missed the extra point. Back came the Chargers, who have won five in a row and seven of eight, to forge a 23-23 tie when tight end Antonio Gates beat backup safety Willie Pile on an 18-yard touchdown pass. After Kaeding's extra point made it 24-23, Hall brought the crowd to its feet by returning the kickoff 96 yards for his first touchdown return of the year. Hall went up the middle almost untouched and had to beat only Kaeding. He chugged across the goal line with 10 minutes left, then Green hit Eddie Kennison for the two-point conversion and the Chiefs led 31-24. But the Chargers overcame four penalties, including one erasing a 51-yard gain by Gates, and tied it 31-31 on Drew Brees' 11-yard pass to his second-year tight end. A moment later, Edwards intercepted Green's pass and Kaeding, who missed from 29 and 52 yards in the first half, made good. much of the year by a groin injury, scored for the Chargers on runs of one and three yards in the first half. He made it 7-0 in the first quarter following Brees' 55-vard pass play to Eric Parker. He then scored on a 3-yard run in the second quarter after Brees hit Gates for 15 yards on third-and-15 and found Eric Parker for 17 on third-and-7 during a 65-vard march. LaDainian Tomlinson, slowed Brees was 28-for-37 for 378 yards. Kaeding tied it 17-17 in the third quarter with a 25-yarder Eric Parker set up with a 38-yard run on a reverse. Tony Gonzalez totaled 39 yards on two catches on the Chiefs' first scoring drive. Blaylock, who started for the injured Priest Holmes for the third straight game, scored on a five-yard run.

PAGE GA SPORTS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MONDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2004 Revenge drives Kansas Javhawks aim to avenge last year's loss to the Wolfpack CLAREM 11 John Tran/KANSAN Aaron Miles, senior guard, by St. Joseph's guard Dwyane Lee. The Jayhawks breezed through Tuesday night's game at Allen Fieldhouse with a 91-51 victory. BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAK SWIPTERWITER Ask Kansas players and coaches, and they won't tell you about the Nevada Wolfpack's first tournament appearance since 1985 last year or its run to the Sweet 16. No, the Jayhawks will only tell you about Dec. 21. "We can talk about their run in the NCAA Tournament," Kansas coach Bill Self said, "but what we remember is g waxed in Reno." Memories remain strong for the Jayhawks of last year's 75-61 loss to the Wolfpack in the championship of the Dodge Holiday Classic last season on Nevada's home court. Now, Kansas has the opportunity for some pay back with an 8 p.m. tip-off against Nevada tonight in Allen Fieldhouse. "We're definitely looking forward to the game," senior forward Wayne Simien said. "They whooped us pretty good out there last year. They definitely they outplayed us, and we're excited to get another shot at them this year." Kansas trailed by 20 at halftime last season and never made a serious run at Nevada. Guard Kirk Snyder, who was drafted in the first round of the NBA Draft by the Utah Jazz, led the Wolfpack with 29 points. "It was a pitiful performance by us, and at that time we didn't know how good of a team they were," Self said. "They were obviously really good, and they basically have their whole front line back." The Wolfpack returns two starters: senior forward Kevin Pinkney and current Western Athletic Conference player of the week Nick Fazekas. In three games, the sophomore forward Fazekas has averaged 23.3 points and 6.7 rebounds. SEE REVENGE ON PAGE 6A Volleyball ends season on fire BY BILL CROSS bcross@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The Kansas volleyball team, which was ranked 10th out of 11 volleyball teams in the Big 12 Conference less than two months ago, finished the season tied for sixth after winning its last two matches during Thanksgiving break. Coach Ray Bechard said the team, which has won five of its last seven matches, is playing as well as it had all season. www.kansan.com RELATED NEWS See the story on seniors' night on page 6A. "We're play- we're play ing like a top-20 team" he said. The team swept Texas Tech for the second time this season on Wednesday before defeating Colorado in four games on Saturday to tie the Buffaloes for sixth place. The team's improved blocking, as exhibited Saturday when the team notched a season-high 18 blocks against Colorado in 3-1 victory, was a big reason for the improvement, Bechard said. Against Texas Tech, blocking and defense dominated game one, as both teams hit less than .100, meaning they scarcely scored more kills than attack errors. The Jayhawks hit an impressive .395 in game two and were led by senior middle blocker Ashley Michaels, who had 13 kills during the match. The Jayhawks had just four attack errors in each of the last two games as they defeated the Red Raiders. 30-25, 30-24 and 30-25. Senior libero Jill Dorsey, who tore ligaments in her left elbow Nov. 12 against Nebraska, had another solid performance as she led the team with 21 digs. It was the first time this season she recorded more than 20 digs in a three-game match. "Dorsey was flying all over the place and gave us a lot of opportunities to keep the ball in play," Bechard said. The layhawks led for most of the first game and set a trend for the night by outblocking the Buffalooes four to zero. They would dominate that statistic the rest of the night, 18 to three. She was a key part of the defense again against Colorado Saturday night, when she notched 20 digs during four games. "Eighteen blocks, wow, I'm just really excited about that," Beard said. "We've been on the other end of that a little bit, so it was great to turn that around." After winning the first game 30-22, Kansas had five more blocks in the second set, but lost 31-29. Kansas never led, but it fought back from a five-point deficit to tie the game at 29 before two straight Colorado kills ended the set. The Jayhawks trailed for all of the third game, as well. A service ace by junior setter Andi Rozum gave Kansas its first lead, 28-27. Senior middle blocker Ashley Michaels and junior outside hitter Paula Caten combined for a block, the team's 12th of the match, to end the game, 51-29.

Rodrick Stewart, a 6-foot-5 guard from Seattle, said he planned to commit to Kansas after the semester ends. BASKETBALL Currently at the University of Southern California, Stewart has not officially given a commitment to the Jayhawks but told rivals.com he would announce his transfer at the completion of the fall semester. Stewart visited Kansas Tuesday for the game against St. Joseph's. He was also scheduled to visit Gonzaga this week but canceled after saying he was sold on the Kansas program. "I had the time of my life during my visit," Stewart told rivals.com. "It was the best time that I have ever had. I will go back to USC after Thanksgiving and finish up the semester. Once I have completed all of that, I plan to enroll at Kansas in January." Transfer player commits Stewart was named to the Parade All-American third team in 2003 along with current Kansas guard J.R. Giddens. He played for USC last year with his twin brother, Lodrick. Rodrick averaged 4.4 points last year then was ruled academically ineligible for this season. He announced plans to transfer Nov. 6. Ranked the 25th-best player overall by rivals.com in 2003, Rodrick must sit out a full season because of NCAA rules. If all academic issues are cleared, he will be able to play second semester of next season.

Jesse Newell Jayhawks overcome struggles win 47-36 BY PAUL BRAND pbrand@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The Jayhawks mustered enough defense and timely shooting to come away with the victory. The Jayhawks (2-1) overcame a long scoring drought in each half to defeat the Kangaroos Saturday, 47-36. All the Kansas women's basketball team needed to end its two-game losing streak to UMKC was a little recovery. Senior guard Aquanita Burras, junior guard Erica Hallman and junior forward Crystal Kemp played all 40 minutes for the lavwhaws. "It felt like my legs were going to fall off in the first half," Burras said. "The timeouts do help and even if we didn't have those timeouts, we just have to control the offense. That's where we get our rest." Although Kansas' starting lineup handled the duress of logging heavy minutes, the offense still sputtered through two long offensive droughts. After a Kemp jumper put Kansas ahead 2-0 at the 19:09 mark, the Jayhawks did not score another point for seven minutes. This span included four turnovers and one-for-10 shooting spread over 10 possessions. Kemp once again sparked the offense with a put back from an offensive rebound that ended the 10-0 UMKC run and made the score 10-4 with 12 minutes remaining. For the rest of the half, Kansas moved the ball well offensively and took advantage of 10 UMKC turnovers to assume a 26-19 intermission lead. "We got good shots early," UMKC coach Bo Overton said. "But we didn't get any easy shots the rest of the game."

The 21-year-old KU student was pronounced dead at the scene of an accident in Olathe shortly after midnight Sunday. Fulbright was riding with his friend, Eric Richards, a Kansas State University student, who was driving west-bound on 119th Street. Richard's black Mazda RX7 struck a utility pole. Sgt. Greg O'Halloran, Olathe Police, said. Twenty-one-year-old Richards also died at the scene. O'Halloran said he couldn't release further details because the initial report was not complete.

Kim Wilcox, dean of CLAS, said that in the new stage, students would have the opportunity to vote on the increases. vote in a referendum, students could answer questions on surveys, individual departments could vote or Student Senate could offer its onion. Wilcox said if students were opposed to the proposal in the new stage, it would not be presented to the Kansas Board of Regents for approval.

Prized KU grad speaks of Pulitzer BY ROSS FITCH KANSAN STAFF WRITER Medical explanatory reporter earned Kevin Helliker a Pulitzer Prize, but the University of Kansas gave him his first skills as a journalist. Described as "the prodigial son of KU and Kansas City" by journalism professor Ted Frederickson, Kevin Helliker relived his KU experience and his journey in reporting about aortic aneurysms last night in the Kansas Union. [Image of a man in formal attire, likely a composer or musician, reading from a book or谱本.

He followed his brother, Keith, to the University and took a particular interest in a humanities class in the English department. What he learned from an unusual path into journalism made him a rarity in newsrooms. "I'm the only guy at The Wall Street Journal who knows their constellations," he said. He earned a degree in English literature from the University in 1982 and only took a couple of years' worth of journalism classes before embarking on his journey toward the Pulitzer. Walking over to what was then Flint Hall, the journalism school, was an economic decision because he said job offers were not pouring in for him as an English major, but all his friends in journalism had jobs. Helliker has been the Chicago Wall Street Journal bureau chief for the last 15 years. After his two years in the journalism school, Helliker left with the blessing of his professors and worked for the Kansas City Times, The Wall Street Journal Houston bureau and Corporate But when Helliker and fellow KU graduates who took Musser's class got together, he said they all agreed that they were glad he made it tough because the real world then seemed like an improvement. the real world life of a journalist — specifically having been taught by journalism professor Rick Musser. Kevin Helliker, a KU graduate who won the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for explanatory writing, answers a question in the Big 12 Room at the Kansas Union.

"It was the hardest class I ever took," Helliker said of Musser's advanced reporting class.

But when Mike's dad, Keith, unhooked a fish from his pole, he noticed the word "Reward" on a tag fastened to the fish's side. R Folkmann, Lawrence junior, said he had heard about tagged fish before, but he and his dad had never caught one. "We were just kind of like "woo hoo, a tagged one," Folkmann said. Folkmann and other people who fish are reaping the benefits of a program designed by the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks to promote communication between fishermen and the department. The department is tagging 300 crappies at Clinton Reservoir this fall with tags worth $5, $20 or $100 in cash, or merchandise, said Tom Mosher, fisheries research coordinator for the department. and instructional information printed on them. The markers are similar to nylon ties that attach price tags to clothes. People qualify for a reward by returning the tag and an informational report card about how the fish was caught to the department. The yellow tags, which are attached adjacent to the fish's dorsal fin, have the word "Reward" ulation was doing fairly well. Folkmann said he and his father returned the tag and card and received a hat. The information from the report cards helps biologists determine when and where fish are caught, and how many fish people catch and harvest. Biologists then use this information to research whether the fish population is being exploited. Mosher said the research indicated that this was not the case and the crappie pop- "I've caught about three tagged fish in the last year," Suitt said. "I've always got a hat or a T-shirt." Mosher said the department has awarded $3,600 so far for returned tags and report cards. Mike Suitt, a retired Lawrence resident, said he went fishing almost everyday. Scott Campbell, a research associate with Kansas Biological Survey, located on West Campus, said reward incentives were the key to the program's success. "I know that voluntary surveys sometimes are not very effective. But if you provide fishermen with affordable incentives to report information back to the department, it becomes very useful," Campbell said. Mosher said the money was well spent because it provided the department with a method of research not otherwise available. "Anglers are reporting what they catch on hook and line, and how many fish and the sizes they are willing to keep." Mosher said. "A biologist cannot duplicate the effort or desires exerted by hundreds of anglers." Besides gaining research information, the program improved general communication between fishermen and department officials, said Jerry Schecher, Clinton State Park manager. Schecher said fishermen knew the program would improve lake management and were more willing to share their views if they were already filling out a card. "They feel more included in the management of the lakes they fish," Schecher said. "They are more satisfied to be involved in the process."

For the past 15 years, he has been at The Wall Street Journal. In September 2002, Helliker was stunned to discover after a scanning of his chest that he had an nortic aneurysm.

But when the vessel ruptures, people die within seconds. turned up dozens of cases of medical mishandlings of aortic aneurysms, earned him and fellow Wall Street Journal reporter Thomas M. Burton the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for explanatory reporting. Helliker said he searched the Internet to find out more about his diagnosis but only found obituaries. Most doctors rarely told their patients about aneurysms, he said. He found that aneurysms killed roughly 32,000 people per year and the abdominal aortic aneurysm was the nation's 13thleading cause of death. Armed with knowledge and a personal connection to the problem, Helliker said he embarked on reporting on a 10-story series about aneurysms and the lack of prevention. The series, which Winning the Pulitzer was overwhelming for Helliker, who said he had spent months telling himself he wasn't going to get it. But the most rewarding was the response.

Fulbright studied business but wasn't sure what he wanted to do for a career. He worked at Best Buy in Lawrence and at the Student Fitness Recreation Center as an official for volleyball and floor tennis. Fulbright's sense of humor was what Brooke Westfall, Olathe sophomore and his best friend's girlfriend, noticed when she met him. "He cared a lot about other people," Westfall said. Fulbright's dad said he probably learned more from his son than his son had learned from him. Most of all, his father misses his uplifting attitude. Fulbright maintained a good attitude even when things weren't going well, and he always had a smile on his face, his dad said. "He was a better man than I," his dad said.

OPINION TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30,2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN EDITORIAL BOARD www.kansan.com Bracelets don't keep original purpose Unfortunately, while the armband fundraiser is new to the University, it is not a new fundraising tactic. Recently the University of Kansas Athletics Department came out with a brilliant new way to promote Jayhawk pride while raising money for a great cause. The Williams Fund. The "Rock Chalk" armband is a blue rubber bracelet with "Rock Chalk" imprinted on it. In fact, the prototype yellow armband was promoted by cancer survivor Lance Armstrong before and during the Tour de France for Live Strong, an organization that helps cancer survivors. Since then, other charity organizations have used this successful tactic to make armbands for different causes. For instance, Choose Hope made pink armbands that say "Hope, Courage, Bravery, and Endurance" to support breast cancer patients.. With these forerunners to the "Rock Chalk" band, it is hard to see why the department would pick this method of promotion and fundraising. The Williams Fund is a good cause, but it is no charity for cancer survivors. It's a scholarship fund based on athletic ability and need for the KU athletes. It also provides money for athletes to go to national-level tournaments, and recruiting of top coaches and athletes from all around the United States, according to their Web site, kuathletics.collegesports.com/williamsfund/kan-williamsfund.html. To the credit of the Williams Fund, the KU Athletics office said that part of the proceeds from the armbands will go to Coaches vs. The emphasis of the armbands was not clearly publicized as support of cancer-related charities, and this objective should have been more widely promoted along with the Jayhawk spirit objective. Cancer. The department also sponsors a KU student cookbook, with the proceeds going to the American Cancer Society for cancer prevention research. Still, that is unlikely to generate as much money as the armbands. In addition to these charitable donations, in the defense of the department, other universities have taken similar actions, such as Ohio State, said the office of Andrew Steinberg, one of the school's assistant athletics directors. Still, the emphasis of the armbands was not clearly publicized as support of cancer-related charities, which should have been more widely promoted along with the Jayhawk spirit objective. By using the armband to promote the Williams Fund especially without mentioning how it supports cancer-related charities — it dilutes the power of the armband as a symbol of support for worthwhile charities. The department might have been able to avoid this had it followed the armband etiquette set by its forerunners and found another way to promote Jayhawk spirit on campus. TALK TO US Henry C.

COOL! BEELER 04 KORT CAMPUS Fair trade gifts high quality GUEST COMMENTARY Lynn Every family has its own holiday rituals, but the purpose behind all of them is to enjoy each other's company and take time out to say, "I care about you." NYANA MILLER opinion@kansan.com However, even when celebrating these intangible values, the materialism in our culture manages to intrude. People get so wrapped up in the shopping frenzy and minute details of pulling off the perfect holiday meal that they lose track of the purpose. It's important to remember the primary focus is not on what you buy or how much you spend, but on the infinitely more valuable relationship that you are celebrating. One way to spread the joy to loved ones both near and far is to purchase fair trade or alternative gifts. Fair trade items purchased from artisans or farmers in developing nations ensure a decent livelihood for the families of those producers by paying a price that will cover the cost of food, housing, education and healthcare. Does this mean the American consumer will have to pay a higher price? Sometimes, but not always. The organizations that sell fair trade items are generally not-for-profit charities, so that a CEO playing golf in Florida isn't pocketing an enormous cut off the sales price. Overheads are low and quality is high, which means that fair trade is quite a Fair trade items purchased from artisans or farmers in developing nations ensure a decent livelihood for the families of those producers by paying a price that will cover the cost of food, housing, education and healthcare. bargain. Alternative gifts are donations made in honor of the gift receiver to a certain organization. The Heifer Project International, for example, sells alternative gifts like farm animals that will be distributed as part of their comprehensive poverty-reduction program in developing countries. Habitat for Humanity symbolically sells bricks or yards of concrete. The proceeds from the United Nations Children's Fund's Christmas cards support the work they do with children around the world. U.S.-El Salvador sister cities sell sponsorship of scholarships for high school students in rural areas of El Salvador, students who could not otherwise continue their educations. Donations can also be made to another favored charity and considered an alternative gift. This form of gift giving presents a sharp contrast to a pair of designer jeans purchased at the mall. Alternative gifts are tokens of love for humanity. This year, many opportunities exist in the Lawrence-Kansas City area for people who seek fair trade or alternative gifts. The Fair Trade Holiday Market at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries offers the most comprehensive selection of compassionate gifts. It has more than 10 organizations contributing an array of items such as finely carved animals from Kenya, woven baskets from the Philippines, pottery, jewelry, toys, crèches, musical instruments, holiday ornaments and hand woven textiles. The market will be a fun environment for students and community members to get their shopping done without waiting in long lines or listening to repetitive holiday tunes that urge consumers to buy more, more, more. So whether it's Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Christmas or something else that your family is preparing to celebrate, keep grounded in the holiday spirit — a spirit of joy and connection. Rejoice in the spirit of companionship without getting caught up in empty substitutes. Use fair trade and alternative gift-giving to shower your loved ones with the spirit.

"If you ask my students, 'tell me about Dennis Dailey,' most of my students will say, 'have you got a minute?'" More than Sex 101 more fun In one sense, being Dailey's student is like talking to an expert; other times, it just feels like "you're having a conversation with your girlfriends," said Jennifer Miller, a senior from Prairie Village. Sitting in the Human Sexuality class, it doesn't feel like there are 495 other people around, said Miller, who decided to take the class this semester after hearing about it from other students. ed num- Hargett and his girlfriend tried a relationship exercise Dailey had suggested. In the exercise, a couple stands or sits and hugs for 10 to 15 minutes without moving. The exercise is supposed to satisfy your "skin hunger," because skin is the biggest sex organ, Hargett said. But it's hard not to go for a kiss or lock the door and do something more, he said. Jason Hargett, a senior from Shawnee, used to think intimacy just meant having more sex. Then his girlfriend took Dailey's class last spring. She started defining intimacy more as what a couple was willing to talk about, he said.

One thing he's learned is that American society has a huge double-standard: Sex is OK to show, but not to talk about. inside: It's you need to I,you Dailey has taught Human Sexuality to more than 15,000 students at the University, said Ann Weick, dean of the School of Social Welfare at the University. This semester, 496 students are enrolled. The class is held in 130 Budig, which seats 499 students and one teacher. walk The class usually has anywhere from 495 to 499 students enrolled in it, said Melanie Hepburn, assistant dean in the School of Social Welfare. There aren't a lot of people who drop it, she said, maybe five or six each semester. "More of what we get are people who will beg, borrow and steal to get in," Hepburn said. Jamie Fransen took the smaller version of the Human Sexuality class, which Dailey has taught at Ecumenical Christian Ministries as a non-credit class since 1998. Fransen, a senior from Leawood, decided to take the 500-person class this semester. "I felt like I had more growing to do," she said. One time, the class was talking about female anatomy and Dailey told everyone to guess how long the vagina was, Fransen said. No one answered. He tried a second time — silence. So he took the microphone and yelled into it, "Women, how long are your vaginas?" That got plenty of response and people started shouting out numbers. "He just comes out and says it," Fransen said. "You don't see many professors doing that." For the record, it's not how long, but rather how deep the vagina is, Datley explained recently. The answer is, when not sexually aroused, a vagina is two to three inches deep. Sexually aroused, it's between six and seven inches deep. "Dennis is sort of a larger-than-life personality, like his class," said Rick Spano, associate professor in the School of Social Welfare. The class isn't just a lecture about sexuality, Spano said. He said he'd been in plenty of sexuality courses where he could hardly stay awake. Dailey turns the class into something personal. He has a message and he spreads it wherever he goes, Spano said. "He's a preacher without a pulit." The Wagle factor In March 2003, Dailey was sitting at his desk in room 53 of Twente Hall when the telephone rang. It was a former student of Dailey's who was working as a legislative aide in Topeka. "He said, 'Heads up, weird shit's Steven Bartkoski/KANSAN 107 "Dennis is sort of a larger- than-life personality like his class." 10% happening. Just wanted to let you know a lot of students of yours on the Hill are watching out for you." Dailev recalled. Dailey enjoys a meal and talks with his granddaughter Grace at Hy-Vee. Dailey and his granddaughter eat lunch every Thursday before they start their grocery shopping. Dailey endured his share of controversy as a result of his human sexuality class but will leave the University as a memorable professors Sen. Susan Wagle (R-Wichita) was upset about the class. She'd learned about it from her legislative intern, who was enrolled in Dailey's class. Steven Bartkoski/KANSAN Rick Spano Associate professor of social welfare Wagle appeared on The O'Reilly Factor on April 29, 2003, to discuss Dailiev's class. "He goes to porn night in the fraternities," Wagle said on the show. "He goes to porn night in the dormitories. He advertises his class. Everybody knows what's going on. The department had bought him his videos. I believe they are what I would consider pornography. They are full sexual acts, all different kinds." At the University, Provost David Shulenburger conducted an investigation, completed in early May 2003, into Wagle's allegations. Shulenburger found the allegations were baseless and Dailey was guilty of no wrongdoing. Wagle, who declined comment for this story, called the investigation a "whitewash" at the time. On May 23, 2003, Sebelius signed a new provision, proposed by Wagle, into law. The provision states that any post-secondary school that is state funded, including the University, has to have policies that deal with the use of sexually explicit materials in human sexuality classes. Some of her complaints included Dailey using "street language" and showing videos of female and male masturbation and pictures of human genitals. The measure, which passed 24-13, would have ended funding to any university department using "obscene" videos. The amendment in the form of a proviso was later vetoed on April 21, 2003, by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius. Wagle proposed an amendment to the Senate's budget bill that would target the purchase of "obscene" material by state institutions. Kansas statute defines "obscene" material as anything that shows sexual acts or lacks "serious literary, artistic, educational, political or scientific value." "I felt very grounded in what I was doing," he said. "But I have to confess I'm glad it happened when I was 65 or 41 instead of 44 or 43, because what I went through would have been really hard for a young professional." During the time of Wagle's accusations, Dailey never changed his teaching methods. He received hundreds of e-mails and letters of support, but Wagle's accusations were hard on his family. Dennis Dailey, professor of social welfare, goes over a shopping list with his granddaughter Grace at Hy-Vee. Dailey and Grace eat and shop at Hy-Vee every Thursday after Grace finishes with gymnastics. This is Dailey's last year of teaching at the University. Dehon, the oldest of Dailey's two daughters. Her initial anguish was over what her father must be going through. Dehon said she gained comfort knowing he was supported by students and colleagues. "He knew he had nothing to fear." she said. "It was awful." said Lisa Dehon, her mother and her sister didn't get that kind of support. She said she sat on the outskirts and felt helpless. "As it got worse, I think dad was more concerned about the three of us," said Amy Cooper, his other daughter. "I was working pretty hard to make sure he knew I was OK, and I wasn't." She bought her dad a "Fuck Wagle" button. Cooper thought it would end up on a shelf somewhere in the house and that he wouldn't wear it — he does. Lisa Dehon was in the sixth grade when she first noticed that her dad was different. It was time for the sex education video. Boys in one room; girls in the other. The Dailev double The girls were supposed to invite their moms, she said, and her mom couldn't make it, so she invited her dad. Everyone was sitting in the music room waiting for the video to start and Dailey walked in and sat down next to his daughter. He was the only man in the room. Dehon, now 42, works as a part-time assistant city attorney in Lenexa. For Amy Cooper, dad was different because he was so comfortable around her and her sister. "My dad knew everything about my growing up that little girls, I think, weren't necessarily telling their dads." Cooper said. For example, when her period started, she said, "My dad sent me a dozen roses and said, 'to a delightful young lady,' and that didn't happen with any of my friends." The year before Cooper got married, she went on a fishing trip with her dad and Professor Spano. She was the only girl out on the lake and the only person catching any fish. All the boats were gathered around each other really close. "Dad leaned over and said, 'take off your hat,'" she said. He wanted everyone to see her long hair and know that a girl caught all the fish. Cooper, 41, now teaches advanced math at Baldwin Junior High School. His other classroom The sign reads in yellow wooden letters, "Robert Miller Home, Erected 1858, National Register of Historical Places." However, you have to find it first before you can read it. The sign is about 10 feet from the side of 19th Street. The brick house is even farther back. This is where Judy and Dennis Dailey live. They have lived in this house for two decades. Judy Brown married Dennis Dailey in 1960 when she was 19. She was a freshman and he was a 22-year-old senior at Hammel University in St. Paul, Minn. Dailey has been married to his "partner," as he calls her, for 43 years. "And I don't call him my partner," Judy adds. She calls him "Denny." At home, things are pretty relaxed. She remembers how much fun it was going on their first grocery trip together, just the two of them, and knowing they were going back home together. "This is gonna sound real hokey, but even a trip to the store together can be fun, and maybe stop and have lunch," she said. "It doesn't take much to entertain us. We're real easy." 'I don't need to be here to teach.' It's a Thursday night, Oct. 21, 2004, to be exact, in the Kansas Union. Dailey is standing on a chair with his back arched, arms over his ears and his hands pointing downward in a not-so-perfect diving stance. He's performing his metaphor for risktaking for an audience of students and adults at one of his intimacy workshops. The metaphor involves being up on a diving board with a "He's just given so much of himself to students that there's going to be a real hole when he leaves." Liz Franklin Cedar Falls, Iowa, senior sack over his head and his toes curled around the edge of the board. As Dailley jumps, he says his last thought is, "I hope they put water in the pool." The point: Nothing is ever certain. "You can't be in a relationship that doesn't have pain." he said. For Liz Franklin, seeing that man "with white hair and a little bit of a belly up in a 'YMCA' position on a folding chair," is something she'll always remember. She first met Dailey the spring semester of her freshman year, when she took the non-credit class at the ECM. Franklin, a senior from Cedar Falls, Iowa, is now filling out graduate school applications with hopes of becoming a human sexuality professor herself. It was Dailey, she said, who encouraged her to pursue her goal. "He's just given so much of himself to students that there's going to be a real hole when he leaves," she said. Dailey plans to retire in June, but he'll still be preaching intimacy. He plans to keep up with his private practice, which he's done since 1972. Through his practice, Dailey works with individuals and couples dealing with relationship or sexual issues. He will continue volunteering at Jubilee Café and adding to his collection of Civil War and Jayhawk memorabilia. And he will continue to teach a non-credit version of the human sexuality class at the ECM. "I don't need to be here to teach," he said.

The Pioneers faced Henrickson, then the coach at Virginia Tech, in the first round of the 2001 NCAA Tournament. Heading into tonight's game at Allen Fieldhouse at 7, Tanner is looking for a different result than the 77-57 defeat her team received last time it faced Henrickson. "They handed it to us pretty well that night." Tanner said. "Hopefully tonight will be different." Henrickson also remembers that game. Although most of the players are different, she expects Tanner to come out with a similar game plan. lead." "Defensively, we'll run some of the same things. We were pretty experienced that year and they were a young team," Henrickson said "We jumped out on them early and got a big Henrickson knows that tonight's game will be much closer, and her team will have to play better than in recent games if it wants to come away with the victory. The Ploneers are a young squad, with five freshman who see significant minutes. Henrickson said strong defensive pressure was the key when facing a young and inexperienced team. "They have a young point guard, so defensively, we have to apply a lot of pressure," Henrickson said. "We need to force a lot of turnovers." The Jayhawks did extensive scouting to prepare for the Pioneers. They watched film from two of the Pioneers games already and have another one arriving this morning. Though Denver is young, it is athletic, which concerns the Kansas coaching staff. "They have nice athleticism, especially in the post," Henrickson said. "We need to keep them out of their half court game as much as possible. We need to control the tempo." "T hey handed it to us pretty well Tanner also focused her defensive game plan on stopping that night. Hopefully tonight will be different." Pam Tanner Denver University women's basketball coach the inside game. Junior forward Crystal Kemp is averaging 16.7 points and 8 rebounds per game. "No one person on our team can stop her. It's going to have to be a group effort," Tanner said. "She's going to get her points. We just have to stop their other shooters from making shots." The Pioneers need to finish games strong. Denver was leading late in the second half in both of its games this season but ended up losing both. Denver was ahead of Wyoming by nine points in the closing minutes on Friday, but lost 55-54 in a game where it held Wyoming's offense to just 13 points for the first 17 minutes of the second half, but gave up 12 in the final three minutes. Denver lost its season opener last Sunday by one point, 55-54 to the University of San Francisco. The Pioneers could have, and probably should have, won both games, Tanner said. "Both of those games were winnable games," said Tanner. "We did a combination of things wrong, and in close ball games, you can't make mistakes." For her Pioneer squad to sneak out of Allen Fieldhouse tonight with a victory, it will have to rely heavily on the play of senior guard Tasha Jones. Jones led the Pioneers, averaging over 12 points a game. Through the first two games of this season, she is averaging only 10 points per game. She had a game high 18 points in Denver's defeat against San Francisco, but had only two points in their loss at Wyoming. The Jayhawks will look to win their third consecutive game of the season. "They are a disciplined team and are very well coached," Henrickson said. "We will need to play well." Edited by Steve Vockrodt Chiefs injuries detrimental to team's record THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. Quarterback Trent Green was at the doctor for X-rays of his sore ribs yesterday and is listed as questionable for this week's game at Oakland, Kansas City Chiefs coach Dick Vermeil said. Green went to the Pro Bowl last year and has directed one of the NFL's most prolific offences for three years in a row. He extended his team record Sunday with his 59th consecutive start at quarterback but was "banged around pretty good" in the 34-31 loss to San Diego. "He got hit a number of times. He got a helmet in the ribs one time," Vermel said. "It's pretty sore in the back area. But knowing him, he'll get better quickly. "But we're so spoiled by his consecutive starts, just take it for granted he's going to be ready." Safety Greg Wesley, who injured his ham- string Sunday pregame warmups, is doubtful. Vermeil also said running back Priest Holmes would miss another week. It will be the fourth straight game Holmes has Counting the Tampa Bay game, the Chiefs (3-8) are 0-4 since he was injured. missed since spraining medial collateral ligaments in his right knee on Nov. 7 at Tampa Bav. "Priest continues to make progress, but I think he's at least two weeks away. He won't be ready for this week," Vermeil said. Vermeil indicated the injury may not be healing as quickly as doctors thought it would. Vermeil also responded sharply to criticism that has been directed toward Holmes for not joining his teammates on the sideline during games. Television cameras showed him several times on Sunday sitting in a press-box suite eating snacks. The NFL limits the number of people who can be in the bench area during games and discourages disabled players from being there, team spokesman Bob Moore said. He said the Chiefs have been fined several times for having too many people in the bench area. Vermeil said most of the injured Chiefs players also watched the game from the suite. Colorado overcomes scandal to win North BY RYAN COLAIanni rcolaianni@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER When the 2004 college football season started, the Colorado Buffaloes were projected to finish in the bottom half of the Big 12 North. But after a 30-24 victory over Nebraska on Friday and an Iowa State loss to Missouri on Saturday, the Buffaloes will play Oklahoma in Saturday's Big 12 Conference title game. Colorado's season Colorado's season began in the shadow of turmoil created from an offseason where the program was accused of providing alco hol and escort services for recruits on visits. Colorado coach Gary Barnett was later cleared of any wrongdoing. CU "I am really happy for our coaches. The kind of things they went through and held up to, and the way they held this team together," Barnett said in yesterday's Big 12 conference call. "The players and their parents, they constantly believed and they constantly didn't let anything bother them. They stayed on course and they separated out what was important from what wasn't important and found a way to win the North." The team worked through the adversity to make the conference championship game and finish 7-4. "We did everything that we could after the Texas game to put ourselves in position to have things go right for us," quarterback Joel Klatt said, referring to Colorado's loss to Texas, after which they won three straight games. "Fortunately for us, our coaching staff and everybody involved in this program, we are going to get a chance to play in this championship game." fourth in the Big 12 North by members of the media. But the Buffaloes silenced the critics and won their third North championship in four years. Colorado was picked to finish "If you think back to last January, we've been underdogs the whole time," Klatt said. "People thought that our program was buried and that coach Barnett wasn't going to be here. I give credit to the guys in our locker room who really hung After Colorado's After Colorado's 30-24 victory in Lincoln, they still needed help to win the North title. Members of the Buffaloos sat and watched as Iowa State went to overtime with Missouri. An Iowa State victory would place the Cyclones in the championship, but when quarterback Bret Meyer threw an interception in the end zone in overtime, the Buffaloes were headed to Kansas City. "It was difficult to see that game," sophomore linebacker Thaddaeus Washington said. "At one point I turned it off. I couldn't watch it anymore. It was just too close and nerve wracking." Colorado will now face the No. 2 team in the nation, Oklahoma. Oklahoma needs a victory this Saturday to keep its National Championship hopes alive as the Sooners are currently second in the latest BCS standings. The Buffaloes are approaching this weekend's game the way they have approached each game all season, as they believed that no one thought they were good enough to win. "We went into this season huge underdogs and found a way to prevail, and we'll go to work to find a way to prevail next week, too," Barnett said. — Edited by Steve Vockrodt KANSAS WOMEN'S BASKETBALL 2004-05 NEW SEASON NEW COACH ALWAYS KU KU vs DENVER TUES.

"At off. I reit. It nerve each way eachieved were v wa 238 CROW Steven Bartkoski/KANSAN Wayne Simien, senior forward, stands over C.J. Giles, freshman center, who injured his arm after a fall during last night's game against Nevada. Giles did not return to the game after the injury in the second half. RUN: Improvement still needed CONTINUED FROM 10A guys," Self said. "We forced them into some turnovers, which led to some easy baskets." Kansas forced turnovers throughout the game, but all of its points from turnovers came in the first half. Aggressive defensive play, led by freshman guard Russell Robinson, set the tone early for the Jayhawks. The Jayhawks went on a 14-0 run early in the first half, holding the Wolf Pack scoreless for more than five minutes. That run was capped off by three consecutive defensive steals that the Jayhawks converted into points. The first came with 12:46 remaining in the first half, when Mike Lee knocked the ball away inside and took it the length of the court for a layup. On the next possession, Robinson intercepted a pass at the top of the key and converted on the other end, widening the jayhawk lead to 19-4. On the next play, Sasha Kaun knocked a pass away from Nevada guard Kyle Shiloh. Robinson picked up the ball and scored again. To close out the half, the Jayhawks stripped the ball from a double-teamed Fazekas. The Jayhawks got the ball down the court quickly to a wide-open Lee, who drilled a three-point shot. Robinson continued to cause problems for the Wolf Pack guards in the second half. At one point, with about 14:30 left in the game, he stole the ball right out of Shiloh's hands and drove down the court for a lay-up. As if that wasn't enough, Robinson did the same thing two minutes later. Robinson said he knew that the best way he could contribute was to play good defense — after that, his offensive game would come. "Playing tough defensive is one of the ways that I work to get my offense going," Robinson said. That strategy worked last night. Robinson finished with three steals and 13 points. "He has a lot of savvy as an on-ball defender." Miles said. Robinson has been playing so well in his first few games as a freshman that senior guard Aaron Miles had to think twice about Robinson's biggest strength. At first, Miles said Robinson's defensive play was his best quality. But as he thought about it, he decided that Robinson's greatest strength was his confidence "His confidence, and his willingness to do whatever he needs to do to help the team." Miles said. As good as the Jayhawks looked tonight, Self said his team still needed a lot of work on defense if they want to contend late in the season. "In order to win games in March, you've got to be great defensively," Self said. "I still think that we have a scorer's mentality without sacrificing on the other end." — Edited by Paige Worthy VICTORY: Team has no agenda; forced 12 Wolf Pack turnovers in the first 20 minutes, scoring 21 points off those miscues. CONTINUED FROM 10A Kansas also established its transition game early, holding a 14-0 advantage in fast break points at the break. The game was a payback of sorts for returning Kansas players still bitter from last year's 75-61 loss to Nevada. "Coach brought the old clips out from last year when they smacked us pretty good and the fans stormed the court," Simien said. "We used that as a motivator, and I think it did that." Simien led Kansas with 14 points and 10 rebounds, recording his third straight double-double. Giddens and Robinson both added 13. Langford's 12 points gave him 1,436 career points, passing Wilt Chamberlain for 18th on the all-time Kansas scoring it wants to win list list. "It's fun to coach guys that have no agenda," Self said of Miles. "All he wants to do is win. He gets the ball in transition to open guys and gets just as much enjoyment when other guys make shots. I think that he's playing really well right now." Miles finished with 10 assists and no turnovers from the point guard position. "Coach brought the old Edited by Janette Crawford clips out from last year when they smacked us pretty good ... We used that as a motivator, and I think it did that." Wayne Simien Senior forward Kit Leffler/KANSAN CORRECTION Yesterday's University Daily Kansan contained an error.

SWIMMING The Big 12 Conference has named Kansas senior Amy Gruber the Big 12 Conference Swimmer of the Month. Swimmerwins Big 12 honorfor November This marks the first conference honor for the Jayhawks since November 2002, when Gruber won the award for the first time in her career. Gruber had a productive month, helping the Jayhawks to a dual meet victory versus Illinois and playing a part in the Jayhawks' third-place finish in the Nike Cup. She recorded an individual first-place finish in the 50 freestyle and finished second individually in the 100 freestyle against Illinois. At the Nike Cup, Gruber became the first Jayhawks swimmer to record an NCAA "A" Standard time, as she won the 100 freestyle with a time of 49.70 — the sixth fastest time recorded in the nation this year. "It's pretty awesome to receive this award," Gruber said. "I am shocked and can't really believe this has all happened." The Big 12 award comes on the heels of the CollegeSwimming.com Collegiate Swimmer of the Week award, which Gruber also received this week.

PAGE 64 SPORTS TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2004 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN www.kansan.com Speed, agility rule court Jayhawk victory avenges former loss BY JESSE NEWELL jnewell@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER With eight minutes remaining in the game, Nevada coach Mark Fox raised his hands, palms up, and pleaded with his team to slow down. Trailing by 32 points, Fox and the Wolf Pack had learned that it's tough to run with the Jayhawks. Led by a fast-paced transition offense, Kansas took its second straight blowout victory last night, defeating Nevada 85-52 at Allen Fieldhouse. The Jayhawks literally ran away with the victory, scoring 21 fast break points and 27 points off turnovers. "If another team wants to run with us, then we welcome that," senior guard Keith Langford said. "Coach thinks that we don't run enough," senior forward Wayne Simien said. "We really want to try to continue to do that." he said of fast breaks. Sophomore guard J.R. Giddens curled off a screen and hit a three-pointer, and on the next possession senior guard Aaron Miles faked a three and then stepped up to the line and connected on his long-range shot. Kansas took an early lead thanks to hot shooting from the outside. Forty seconds later, Giddens finished a fast break with the third consecutive Jayhawk three, giving Kansas a 13-4 advantage. "He bailed us out when we didn't play great," Kansas coach Bill Self said KANSAS 33 NEVADA 21 NEVADA 10 ING If another team wants to run with us, then we welcome that. Wayne Simien Senior forward of Giddens. "That's what he can do." The Jayhawks would turn defense into offense the next three possessions, forcing three straight Wolf Pack turnovers. A pair of steals by Russell Robinson and one by senior guard Mike Lee created three layups for Kansas, completing a 14-0 first-half run. Kansas would also finish the half with a flurry. Nevada pulled within 13, but the last minute and 20 seconds were dominated by the Javhawks. Miles drove the baseline for a quick two, and Simien made two free throws after gaining good position inside. Two straight Nevada turnovers led to points for Kansas in the final 25 seconds. Moody made an acrobatic one-handed catch on a Miles pass in transition to lay it in for two, and Miles received his second straight assist after a Ramon Sessions miss, feeding Lee in the corner for an open three and a 43-21 halftime lead. Kansas created much of its first-half offense from defense. The Jayhawks SEE VICTORY ON PAGE 7A Cindy Yeo/KANSAN Freshman centers Sasha Kaun and C.J. Giles attempt to rebound over Wolf Pack senior Kevinn. Pinkney in the first half of last night's game in Allen Fieldhouse. Turnovers early run seal victory for Kansas BY MIRANDA LENNING mlenning@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITER At first glance the statistics sheet from last night's basketball game against Nevada indicates that Kansas played exceptionally well defensively. Kansas' 85-52 victory was impressive, but more impressive was that Nevada scored just nine more points in the entire game than Kansas did in the first half alone. The Jayhawks led 43-21 at the half. The Jayhawk defensive line should get credit for good perimeter pressure and interior defense, but coach Bill Self said the performance was not as good as it looked. "I don't think it was as good as their stats would indicate." Self said. But Nevada's offense didn't do much to challenge the Kansas defense. The Wolf Pack shot a meager 28 percent from the field and turned the ball over 18 times. Kansas converted 21 points off of turnovers while Nevada scored only seven points off of turnovers. Kansas held Nevada's leading scorer, Nick Fazekas, to 5-18 from the field. He ended up with 17 points, which is misleading because he scored eight of those points in the last 1:30 of the game.

The team will play the Denver Pioneers at 7 tonight in Allen KANSAS 23 Fieldhouse Kansas at home again Kansan File Photo Women's basketball team hoping for 600th team victory tonight BY PAUL BRAND pbrand@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER The Kansas women's basketball team will go for its landmark 600th all-time victory tonight against Denver, looking to extend its winning streak to three games. The game is the third of the Jayhawks' four-game, season-opening homestand, and despite cold shooting, the team is greeting the opportunity to play two more games at Allen Fieldhouse with a warm reception. "We probably need more practice on the offensive side," coach Bonnie Henrickson said. "But we are excited about playing at home." Kansas, 2-1 and 599-399 all-time, has played all its exhibition and regular season contests at home. The Jayhawks face 0-2 Denver tonight and Washburn on Thursday before hitting the road to play at No. 18 Minnesota on Sunday. Riding its two-game winning streak into this evening's tip-off, Kansas is still busy tweaking its starting five to form a team hoping for 600th more potent scoring combination The first three games have seen three different lineups from Henrickson. In last Saturday's 47-36 victory against UMKC, junior forward Crystal Kemp made her first start of the season after being relegated to a reserve for the first two games because of an unnamed team policy violation. Despite not starting two games, Kemp has still racked up minutes, playing 36 minutes a game. She also leads the Jayhawks in scoring average, 16.7 points, and shooting, 57 percent. Freshman forward Taylor McIntosh has started all three games, in part due to the Kemp suspension, and has responded by scoring 4.3 points and grabbing 7.7 rebounds per game. McIntosh has been especially active on the boards in the last two games, pulling down 21 rebounds, eight of which came on the offensive end. Senior guard Blair Waltz replaced junior guard Kaylee Brown as a starter in the second game, but was held scoreless against UMKC on 0-4 shooting in 12 minutes. Brown played just as many minutes, but scored seven points with a 2-5 showing from the three-point line. The backcourt constants for Kansas have been senior guard Aquanita Burras and junior guard Erica Hallman. Both have scored eight points a game and have shown improvement in protecting the ball, but both have also been mired in shooting slumps. VOL.1 N Stud The Despite potential fatigue issues facing the shallow Kansas bench, players remain optimistic about the physical challenge for the near future. Hawks win co-rec intramural title Burras is shooting only 31 percent from the field and Hallman 30 percent. Burras, Kemp and Hallman all played 40 minutes against the Kangaroos and will continue to log heavy playing time, even during the busy week ahead. "We have two games back-to-back here next week," Kemp said. "We have to be smart about our health conditions and once again have to bring this momentum back to the court." BV JESSICA FERGEN ifergen@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITTER The Hawks co-rec intramural volleyball team can claim this year's title after back-to-back victories against the Sausage Tacos 25-14, 25-15. "The communication between all of us allowed us to pull away in those games," said the Hawks' Julie Calderwood, Seneca senior. "In the second game, we tried to communicate more so we knew who was taking the ball." The teams were not as mismatched as the final scores would indicate. Both games started close until the Hawks took flight. - Edited by Johanna M. Maska From the beginning, both teams made it clear they weren't playing just Sausage Tacos took an early 7-4 lead in the first game, but the Hawks tied it up with tricky net serves and tips.

In the second game, the Sausage Tacos tried to regain their teamwork. "We came from a really competitive high school and we take it seriously," Calderwood said. All but one of the Hawks' players went to high school together, and a few played on the same team. "I know that at least the three girls that played will be able to play again, so we may have to find new guys and we'll shoot for the Julie Calderwood Hawks co-recruit team member championship again. We'll be back." but the Hawks had it all — hitters, killer serves and unending teamwork and talking. The Hawks never trailed and quickly put away their opponent, 25-15 we got ourselves into too deep of a hole and ended up costing ourselves the win," the Sausage Tacos' Rob Werling, Fort Scott senior, said. "They played really well and we played a little bit worse than we could have." I think we sort of lost our focus and — Edited by Johanna M. Maska As the Hawks tried on their new intramural champion T-shirts, the team took a picture for Calderwood to send to her mom. Though most of the team members are seniors, they hope to defend their title again next year.
